The United States have been dumped out of the World Cup‚ humiliated 4-1 by Belgium - and the gleeful reaction of the rest of the world. After FIFA reversed the red-card suspension of USA star Folarin Balogun following pressure from Donald Trump‚ critics had warned that the integrity of the beautiful game was at stake. And‚ led by the Trump-dancing Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku‚ the reaction has been one of mockery. And Iran FA spokesperson this morning said: 'Now the whole world is dancing to celebrate politics' humiliating defeat by football.' While Belgium‚ who were furious with Trump's Balogun intervention‚ wrote on their official social media accounts: 'Overturn this.'

WORLD CUP ROUND-UP: Donald Trump mocked as Belgium batter USA‚ boss quits and Ronaldo cries

DANIEL MATTHEWS IN SEATTLE: It turns out Donald Trump was worried about the wrong striker. In an extraordinary intervention that cast a long shadow over the biggest game in US soccer history‚ the president had lobbied FIFA boss Gianni Infantino to allow the suspended Folarin Balogun to face Belgium. How much influence that call had‚ we may never know. In the end‚ though‚ it made little difference. Because‚ even though Balogun was controversially cleared to play‚ it was Belgian striker Charles De Ketelaere who decided this World Cup showdown. The 25-year-old scored two goals and helped create another as Belgium broke American hearts and shattered the co-hosts' World Cup dreams in the round of 16. De Ketelaere was given a huge helping hand by Mauricio Pochettino's players who‚ after weeks of promise and brilliance‚ put in a calamitous display. Balogun drew a blank before Romelu Lukaku profited from a final defensive lapse to seal a 4-1 win. What a dismal end to a magical few weeks. Good luck overturning this one‚ Mr President.
