President Donald Trump’s World Cup victory lap could be thrown off course as protesters prepare to crash his trophy moment.

The cards direct attendees to a website urging them to raise them during the trophy presentation, when Trump, 80, and FIFA President Gianni Infantino, 56, are expected to take the stage to present the World Cup trophy to the winning team.
