FIFA president Gianni Infantino found himself in hot water.

Football fans were shocked by a new scandal when the U.S. team's striker Folarin Balogun's suspension was unexpectedly lifted during the World Cup.

More and more calls for radical action are being directed at G. Infantino, 56.

Among the critics is English politician Ed Davey.

"He must resign. It doesn't matter where the World Cup is taking place – it belongs to the fans, not to gangsters like Donald Trump.

Someone needs to finally root out corruption from the FIFA organization," said E. Davey.
