"It Embarrassed Them!" | Neville, Wright & Keane React to US President's FIFA Intervention
Video Overview & Insights
The ITV studio panel breaks down the massive pre-match controversy surrounding the USA's knockout clash against Belgium.
Poch should have benched balogun and not used him and then it's taken out of FIFA & Trump's hands. Unfortunately poch felt the decision was correct to overturn the suspension š¤¦

It wasn't a red card in the first place...
@marclong3235Hmm, I agree to certain extent with what they are saying, Infantino is just showing himself for the corrupt weasel he is. But for Neville to talk about players just wanting to be fair and equitable and sportsmanlike is laughable. If that is the case why do they spend 90 minutes diving, feigning injury and generally trying to get each other sent off?
@shaunwarren8042i can't stand gary neville is talks out of his backside 24/7
@jameschandleyThis world cup has been a total shambles. It should never be held in the USA again.
@onelove154Im english and feel sorry for the lad and the us team..trump jumped in,and didnt ask beforehand
@davehoward22Infantino is going to stand for re-election for the next FIFA election next year.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO STOP HIM!
If Obama did it Neville would be full of praise
@JBulldogI love that ! heās the opposite of king Midas brilliant š¦šŗ
@kimwieslaw8339It amazes me that anyone thought something like this wouldn't happen at this World Cup. It's being held in one of the most corrupt countries on earth by people who don't even try to understand the game. For the example advert breaks half way through each half and even calling it soccer instead of football. Until your culture is more aligned with the true values of 'The Beautiful Game', you shouldn't even be allowed to compete. Shame on you USA
@garnetnewton-wade6254Just give Messi the cup
@Abbas_YouTube_HandleNeville is an embarrassment.
@hughzapretti-boyden9187ITV is going to be bought out by Sky which is owned by Comcast which is an American company and their CEO like Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Google, X, etc are sucking up to Trump in order to get preferential treatment in order to make more money. So, soon, these critical comments of Trump won't be allowed. It's up to the American people to send a message in the mid-terms that they hate him and want him gone!
@SiggyHaroldsonCorruption on the US well are we even surprised
@easterneye2773Are they going to discuss the obvious corruption in the Egypt game?
@btu113They felt that bad they played him.
@Jaymdh224Nobody cares anymore.... stop squeezing views
@TKX18It's not America's or Trump's fault. You know, in life, one does have a right to question things. FIFA are the ones who should be criticized for not staying strong and enforcing the rules.
@tomeskdale2642Fifa corrupted. Neville anti west
@Hmg-r4eYou know whatās worse? ITV and the fkn adverts. And the match commentators.
@HF2683-1No one forced Poch to play him
@7_maniaWas it Neville that turned a blind eye to the deaths and slave workers in Qatar?
@paulharris1502FIFA are Corrupt and Trump exposed them
@drews1953I feel very sorry for Balogun and I hope he doesn't get the hate.
However, even without the controversy, Belgium would have still beaten the USA
usa can add anyone they want, balogun, bilagon, bulagin, lebron, MJ, Tom Brady, Tom Cruise, and all the avengers, and Belgium will still trashed them because they're suggs, This is The Real World Cup, not some made up "world series" šš
@SongofIceandTeaIt should be fifa whoās embarrassed . We all expect trump to turn everything he touches to crap . No surprises there .
@deanwitt7903With Balogun on the field, it would be a lose-lose situation.
And this lose-lose situation put some pressure on the U.S. team.
Hereās what should have been done to break the lose-lose situation:
1) A brief press conference by the U.S. team: politics should never be allowed to influence a decision. So weāre going to leave Balogun on the bench.
2) The U.S. team leaves the player on the bench.
3) The players play without the pressure, without the hostility of 5 billion viewers, and give themselves a real chance to win.
I must say this is the best world cup as cheating and corruption never prevails. Im sad that US players have to deal this pressure because FIFA and Trump ruins the integrity of the sport.
@QuickChillVideosTrump called Infantino again to help him find 4 goals.
@Soya4meWho TF created this edit? A 9yr old?
@jamessankey01This is what fascist governments do.
Arg fascists rigged the WC in 1978. Trump tried.
āForget the US president, heās allowed to try and cheatā - is that what Gary is trying to say?
@SighFlyGary was even afraid to say what he wanted to say about Trump, because his American visa would be terminated the same day. Hopefully without deportation to El Salvador :)
@Alex505-q5iITV can suck my footballs.. I can fwd on my phone but on my tv I have to pay a subscription⦠up yours ITV⦠Iāll ITC you later
@MattyouyousThank you SO much for discussing this & Teach the World š to NEVER ever bring Politics in any Game ā½ļø especially in the Glorious World Cup š
@VarietyDUS Team cheated and still lost.
@philradbourneThanks Belgium for saving football... FIFA is corrupt.. Trump is evil
@aymansayed8266All usa had to do was not play him
@steroe7965Canāt stand this viewpoint of oh well because itās the orange man itās fine thatās how he is. What about his behaviour is ok heās put everyone in an impossible situation and his lack of moral compass and bragging about it as well.
@shaiawo8738Gary Neville lecturing others on morals that is rich
@roccoparksThese guys and propaganda! How do you guys know they were embarrassed!? Complete nonsense. Present facts not assumptions. Belgium always had the quality with or without balogun
@chinedulou6714Poch should of benched him. Full stop
@robinkerr3373Infantino should step down as FIFA President and FIFA should shutdown and UEFA to organise it from now on
@foundation68673 days ago. This red card is a travesty and should be reversed. Now: FIFA is corrupt they should never have suspended the card! GTFO.
@BK-hp8cjthe argentine run through their group to referee treatment is disguising
@lilraw322Letās be clear the fault is not with Balogun who did apologise to the Belgium coach and team itās FIFA and Trump who have not realised the decision made is a very wrong one
@masterjay7163What's gary neville doing in that discussion. His an embarrassment to the nation. The most unpatriotic england player that takes flags down š
