Trump and Infantino booed by fans during World Cup trophy ceremony

Boos descended from the stands as ​U.S. President Donald Trump and FIFA ‌chief Gianni Infantino took to the field for the World Cup trophy ceremony at New ​York New Jersey stadium on Sunday, Reuters writes.

The boos had stopped when ​Trump and Infantino presented the players and ​coaches with their medals before they handed out the trophy.

Trump stayed on the podium with ​the Spanish players before being invited to the side as captain Rodri ‌was ⁠about to lift the trophy in front of a barrage of photographers.

Trump was at the centre of the biggest controversy of the World ​Cup when ​he called ⁠Infantino to ask him to review a red card handed ​to US striker Folarin Balogun in ​a ⁠group stage match against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
