The crowd at MetLife Stadium erupted in cheers as the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final commenced. European giants Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea are finally squaring off to compete for the prestigious trophy in New Jersey. As anticipated, a full house turned out for the crucial event, with many revered names also in attendance. Among the guests on the list is none other than the honorable President of the United States of America, Mr. Donald Trump.
However, just when one would expect the American crowd to make a grand welcome for their nation’s first man, the Republican party leader somehow ended up facing an unfortunate disrespect. For context, the episode transpired just moments before the final kicked off. After an enthralling countdown for the final and some promising live performances, it was time for the national anthem.
Now, as the entire MetLife Stadium echoed The Star-Spangled Banner, cameras panned to showcase both players and supporters in the stands honoring the host nation’s song. Somehow, the Jumbotron went to President Trump, who was standing next to FIFA president Gianni Infantino. But the cheers quickly turned into a chorus of outcry when the camera focused on the POTUS, which forced the spotlight to quickly move elsewhere.
