Norway mulls FIFA ethics complaint over Trump's role in Balogun red card reversal

Norway's football federation announced Thursday it will consider filing a formal ethics complaint to FIFA over Donald Trump's intervention in reversing a red card shown to Folarin Balogun at the World Cup. The federation's board of directors will discuss the matter at its next meeting, likely on 6 August. Trump reportedly called FIFA president Gianni Infantino, which led to the decision being reviewed and overturned.
