Football fury after Fifa red card controversy

PM

Available for 27 days

The football world is in uproar after Fifa effectively overturned a ban for an American player who was sent off in the USA's last match. President Trump confirmed he asked Fifa to review the case, and said he didn't think the offence was a foul. The USA are playing Belgium in their next game - a Belgian MP speaks to us. And the man who chaired Fifa's governance committee before he was dismissed by football's world governing body tells PM that this is symptomatic of how Fifa works. Also on the programme, a family drama writ large, as Prince Harry's trip to the UK is embroiled in confusion over where he is staying and what he is doing. And with the news of its takeover by Sky, what will become of some of ITV's most famous programmes?
