“USA, USA, USA”. Screams worthy of a political rally that Joe Biden is used to. However, this is the first time that the President of the United States is at the origin of these songs to celebrate the victory of the national football team in the World Cup. The American team won on Tuesday evening against Iran (1: 0), which allowed it to reach the 1/8 finals of the 2022 World Cup, held in Qatar. Joe Biden was then at a press conference during a game for Bay City, Michigan.
At the end of his conference, having learned about the qualifications of his people, while photographing and signing autographs, the US president again ran to the microphone: “The US beat Iran 1-0, the US 1, Iran 0. It’s all over.” While in good shape, Joe Biden said “USA, USA” to his supporters before returning to comments he made to the team ahead of the World Cup. “This is a great game. When I went to talk to the players and the coach, I told them that he could do it. They did it ! “Loved the Democratic President.

In addition to an important qualification, for the first time since 2014 (the US was absent in 2018), it was an equally symbolic victory over Iran, a very long-standing diplomatic adversary of “Uncle Sam’s country”. Thus, for the third time in 12 years, the Americans ended up in the 1/8 finals of the World Cup. On Saturday at 16:00 they will face the Netherlands to reach the first quarter-final in their history at the World Cup.
