Why would Russia need to spy on Trump if he’s already in bed with them?

FIFA began chipping balls a couple of years ago as part of an electronic goal judging system. It’s to confirm whether the ball in fact crossed the plane of the goal mouth.
To: yesthatjallen
Is the chip installed so you can’t steal it from a store or just a complex upc code? Of course the media will spin it as Putin is bugging Trump.

It’s a NFC chip; it doesn’t even transmit, it reflects and wouldn’t transmit anything to nearby cell phones, but a properly equipped cell phone could read the NFC code.
Useful for officials keeping track of official balls during world cup games. That’s about it.
Tell me again why reporters are unable to do even the most mundane research?

So now Pakistan is using the Russians to bug Trump?
Note Pakistan is the world's largest MFG of soccer balls.

I liked it when the NHL had a chip in the puck and displayed the path on screen.

If you’ll pardon the semi-pun; the media are the ones who are REALLY “bugging” Trump.

Wait a minute..........why would Russia need a chip if as the media tells us 24/7 Trump is pals with Putin?

As if Putin couldn't install any chip he wanted to into the ball while he had it. Who cares about the original chip Adidas put in it?
Sheesh, what hand wringing over nothing.

Great, an excuse to post another Melania-make-me-smile pic. Seems like the Ruskies got a thrill out of seeing Melania showing her kicking skills.

It is nice to see an attractive well mannered first lady for a change. Instead of the angry and ugly on the inside bitter female who used to infest our White House.
