The Euros saw that we are kind, generous, welcoming folk living in a gorgeous country with incredible opportunities available to the regular man no where else in contradiction to the liberal narrative fed to them by their Main Stream Media.
But at the same time, we owe them nothing. Your view of this reflects your foreign policy views to a tee:

1) You're hyper concerned about how you look to them
2) You loathe yourself (your country).
3) You seek to appease them by simply accepting unfair penalties (one-sided tariffs, vastly disproportionate NATO funding, etc).

Here's some info for you:
FIFA was already looking to overturn the ruling before Trump called.
I've been watching soccer for 17 yrs
It was gross red card call that was condemned by all before your TDS kicked in.

We have an incredible country with incredible people and we are beholden to nobody.
