Some will argue that the defeat in Seattle proves the whole #Balogun affair was harmless. He played, the Americans lost, no damage done. But the damage was never in the result, as much as it was in the attempt. A rule that a phone call can set aside is not made sound again because that particular call failed to produce a win. A norm does not survive on the understanding that bending it counts only when it works.

Belgium won the match cleanly, and that is the end of this particular story. It is not the end of the precedent. A head of state has shown that he can call the custodian of a global game and shift a verdict reached on the pitch. On Monday, it didn’t impact the game’s outcome. It may not always. -

What share of humanity is represented at each FIFA World Cup?
The peak wasn’t 2026 with 48 teams. It was 2002, when 🇨🇳 China qualified: ~46% of the world’s population. To break this record, either 🇮🇳 India or 🇨🇳 China must qualify.⚽🥅✨

@HannahHowe as an Australian (our team has done better than the pundits predicted, so, far) - nah, yeah; but the rank commercialisation - yeah, nah.
Aussie rules football #AFL is played in quarters.
#wc26 soccer is supposed to be played in halves.

Today's cool #adsb #planespotting over central Kentucky - DRC001 (Air Congo, Democratic Republic of the Congo)...on its way to Houston, presumably carrying dignitaries for that country's World Cup match tomorrow.
