The Belgium men\u2019s soccer team just embarrassed the USA men\u2019s national team, dominating them in their Round of 16 World Cup showdown on the United States\u2019 home soil. <\/p>\n

Belgium finished with a 4-1 win, with the fourth and final goal coming from star striker Romelo Lukaku in stoppage time. <\/p>\n

Right after Lukaku scored this goal, he and many other members of Belgium\u2019s roster celebrated by doing the iconic Donald Trump dance in a circle together.<\/p>\n

President Donald Trump has been a big topic of discussion around the World Cup, as he was a key part in getting USA striker Folarin Balogun\u2019s red card from USA\u2019s Round of 32 game suspended, so that he was able to play against Belgium on Monday.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, that decision didn\u2019t change anything about Monday\u2019s outcome, as Balogun wasn\u2019t able to get anything going against Belgium. And the Belgian side (who was outraged about Trump\u2019s intervention) trolled all of the United States with this dance celebration.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

When Trump was asked about speaking with asked FIFA supremo Gianni Infantino\u00a0on Monday, he said \u201cI didn\u2019t tell [Infantino] what to do. I can\u2019t tell him what to do, but \u2014 and I don\u2019t believe he made the decision. I think it was a committee that made the decision, and they made the right decision \u2014 because number one, it wasn\u2019t a foul, and you want to see a game with your best players.\u201d<\/p>\n

This one will be hard for USA to recover\u2014both the devastating loss and the Donald Trump dance by Belgium.<\/p>\n
