US President Donald Trump has questioned England's decision to sit back after taking the lead in their World Cup semifinal loss to Argentina on Wednesday.
"You have a great player in England, who I play golf with, Harry," Trump said, referring to England striker Harry Kane, while speaking alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino in New York. "I think they perhaps made a mistake when they made him a defensive player."
"What do I know about soccer?" he added. "They took their best player, and they put him on defence."
