After defeating the United States 4-1 in Monday's Round of 16 game, Belgium players displayed Trump's trademark two-fisted dance following an extra time goal. The team had earlier posted "overturn this" on Twitter, referencing President Trump's lobbying of FIFA to suspend a one-game suspension for US striker Folarin Balogun.
Belgium's response appeared to be fueled by Trump's intervention in FIFA's disciplinary decision, which created broad discretion to suspend Balogun's suspension. The victory and subsequent mocking dance sent a clear message from the Belgian team regarding the political involvement in their sport. sweetbonan.org
