Infantino tries to usher Trump away as Spain lift World Cup

FIFA President Gianni Infantino made an effort to move former U.S. president Donald Trump away from the stage during a ceremony where Spain's national football team celebrated lifting the World Cup trophy on Sunday. The event took place on July 20, 2026, and marked Spain's victory in the tournament. Infantino's actions suggest he wanted to limit Trump's presence at the celebration, possibly due to political tensions or concerns over his influence. This incident occurred amid ongoing discussions about Trump's role in global sports and international affairs.
