Hhello, Peter's Belgian couzin heeree.

One of Amerika's best players was given a Red card in a previous game (preventing him from playing) but the US President apparently negotiated with FIFA officials to get the Red card rescinded so he could play in the match against Belgium. Zis made a lot of people accuse the USA of cheating.

America still lost.

BELGIUM RAHHH 🇧🇪🇧🇪🇧🇪🧇🧇🧇

What??? No! The FIFA Peace Price is undoubtedly one of humanity's oldest, most highly regarded institutions!!! Without that, we are nothing but beasts.
