Vídeo Trump tocó la copa de los campeones del mundo y provocó muchas reacciones

U.S. President Donald Trump drew widespread attention and criticism after being filmed touching the World Cup trophy during the final match of the tournament, which was won by Spain over Argentina. The incident occurred amid the final game held in Qatar, where Trump was accompanied by his wife Melania and FIFA president Gianni Infantino. Following Spain’s victory with a 1-0 scoreline in extra time, Trump appeared to touch the golden trophy, sparking immediate reactions online. The moment captured on television showed Trump receiving the trophy, seemingly after Infantino gave him a signal to do so. The trophy had been brought into the VIP area by Brazilian football legend Ronaldo. The video quickly spread across social media platforms, where many viewers expressed outrage, claiming Trump violated an unwritten rule that only allows world champions to touch the trophy. Numerous users took to social media to comment on the incident. One user described Trump's action as “unbecoming,” while another insisted that “only winners should touch the trophy.” Another questioned whether Trump had indeed touched the trophy, suggesting such an act might be prohibited. While many believe the rule exists informally, FIFA has not explicitly outlined this regulation in its official guidelines. Despite this lack of formal policy, the moment stirred discontent among some fans. Before the final match, Trump had spoken to Fox Sports about his desire for the United States to bid again for hosting the World Cup while he is still in office. He stated that the U.S., having previously hosted the tournament, should immediately submit a candidacy. “We will apply right away. We need to repeat this while I’m still here. Do you hear me, Gianni?” he said, addressing Infantino directly. However, according to FIFA rules, the host nation cannot bid for the tournament again until 2038. Spain secured their victory through a goal scored by Ferran Torres in extra time. Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, struggled throughout the match, failing to score against Spain’s defense in all 120 minutes of play. This marked one of the weakest performances by Argentina during the tournament. The incident involving Trump and the World Cup trophy has become a focal point of discussion, highlighting the intersection of sports and politics. As the controversy continues to unfold, further reactions from officials and the public are anticipated. The situation underscores the sensitivity surrounding high-profile figures and international sporting events, particularly when informal norms are perceived to have been breached.
