Immigration must have a hate on for soccer. There was some team in Canada going to Boston to play and they banned a Canadian born player, whose parents were Moroccan, entry. Can't be too sure about those Canadian soccer players with parents who were born in Morocco.

I feel so safe.

it is not harder, it might take longer if you are missing docs, and that is pretty much what they mean.
I quoted what was written on the official web site.

You were clearly attempting to excuse the embassy staff members who chose to block their entry.
I don't know who the embassy staff member or members were who reviewed and denied the visas or their reasoning.
Quote:
The truth is many refusals are based on racism, and Trump has empowered the racists, the bigots etc to do their worst.
Your going to have to elaborate, specifically how has the President empowered racists, and bigots. Just because you say that doesn't make it true. I have not heard him say anything to that effect or know of any EO taking rights away from any race.

Your attempt to sow doubt was pretty obvious and not exactly good. people apply for visas outside their home countries every single hour of the day. It is not only common it is expected in many cases as very often the easiest embassy to get to is not in your country...

see this is not uncommon, and it doe not excuse the embassy
There is doubt because there wasn't much information in the articles, mostly opinion.
As well it states specifically on the web site that applying for visas outside ones home country is not the best way to go about it, especially if this was a planned in advance trip. I dont care if its done every hour of the day as you say it is. Obviously someone had some reason to doubt that the players that were denied visas.
