An Australian broadcaster was mystified by President Donald Trump’s stunt at the World Cup Final on Sunday, which was caught on a hot mic.
Trump accompanied FIFA President Gianni Infantino on the field for the trophy presentation ceremony following Spain’s 1-0 win over Argentina in the World Cup Final in New York on Sunday. Trump was roundly booed by the crowd as the two men walked onto the field, and he stuck around for the team photo, which seemed to catch Infantino off guard.
One of the broadcasters was seemingly confused by the visual.
“Are they going to edit him out of that?” the broadcaster from SBS Australia said, referring to the image of Trump and Infantino on stage while the confetti cannons rang out and the Spanish team hoisted the trophy.
The World Cup Final was not the first time that Trump seemed to overstay his welcome during a trophy presentation ceremony. Trump awkwardly stuck around for the FIFA Gold Club World Cup trophy ceremony with Chelsea last year, which baffled some of the team’s stars.
