Summary
Former international referees are criticizing FIFA's inconsistent handling of red-card cases in the World Cup, specifically comparing the two-match ban for England's Jarell Quansah to the suspended one-match ban for the U.S.'s Folarin Balogun for similar fouls. The controversy intensified due to alleged outside interference from U.S. President Donald Trump in Balogun's case, which FIFA denies influenced their decision.
