FIFA president Infantino reported for World Cup behaviour ahead of England match

FIFA president Infantino reported for World Cup behaviour ahead of England match reports fresh allegations involving Gianni Infantino and claims of political neutrality breaches. A complaint has been filed to the International Olympic Committee alleging Infantino violated rules after interactions connected to U.S. President Donald Trump, regarding Folarin Balogun’s red card being lifted at the World Cup. The complaint cites FairSquare, a human rights organization, saying Infantino—who joined the IOC in 2020—has repeatedly breached the Olympic Charter and IOC code of ethics. The latest issue links to FIFA lifting Balogun’s one-match suspension, clearing him to play in a last-16 clash against Belgium. FairSquare says it received acknowledgment but no further updates, while Parliament members and the Norwegian football federation urged ethics review. Balogun discussed the distraction effect on CBS Mornings.
