Hard to lose a game when you’re the only one playing.

This FIFA event might be the US version of the 1936 Olympics.

While I don’t fault the Galaxy players for this, their owner is a Trumper who deserves to have the game forfeited.

No, I’m not incredibly biased against the Galaxy.

Well if the US won’t allow them to play then it seems the US team should have to Forfeit.
