WASHINGTON (AP) – President Donald Trump on Monday took credit for getting FIFA to review a red card issued against the United States' star forward Folarin Balogun at the World Cup but said he did not demand an outcome.

"All I did was ask for a review," Trump said when asked about it during an unrelated Oval Office event. "I didn't say, 'You have to do this'."

Trump confirmed that he called FIFA President Gianni Infantino and asked for a second look at the punishment against Balogun in the United States' 2-0 win against Bosnia-Herzegovina last week in Santa Clara, California, near San Francisco.
