The United States men’s national soccer team’s World Cup campaign has come to an end following a decisive 4-1 loss to Belgium in the Round of 16 on Monday in Seattle.
The match was overshadowed by a controversy involving President Trump, who reportedly made a phone call to the head of FIFA regarding a red card that had been issued to a U.S. striker. The situation drew significant attention heading into the game.
However, even with the American squad playing at full strength following the red card controversy, Belgium proved too strong, cruising to a comfortable victory and advancing in the tournament.
