Donald Trump’s bombastic speeches, known to make politically correct people cringe, have been repeated in headlines and featured in campaign ads by his opponents throughout the early stages of the 2016 election. Now, it appears his provocative personality is the perfect fodder for a friendly soccer rivalry.
Back in September, the Mexican broadcast station TV Azteca used Trump’s controversial comments about illegal immigration and turned them around for their benefit to tease the USA-Mexico CONCACAF Cup playoff match.
