Where else would referees for an event called WORLD cup come from? As far as I know, the US only has eight referees for the World Cup.

Actually...

"This individual was seeking admission to the United States," a Trump administration official said in a statement. "Upon further inspection by CBP, derogatory information, including association with suspected members of terror organizations, was discovered, making the traveler ineligible for admission to the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).

"The traveler was refused admission and given immigration forms that provide the section of law used to complete an expedited removal under 8235 of the INA. President Trump's administration will not allow any security threat to enter our country - full stop."

He‘s a damn referee. What is he supposed to do, throw yellow and red cards at American citizens and grant the communists a penalty kick?

He's obviously ineligible to enter due to US laws. What's the problem with that?

While research is being done into this, one suggestion:

Might need to brush up on comparison and contrast of the Actions of PeaceMakers of Egypt:

-Anwar Sadat and Yassir Arafat.
Both, Nobel Peace Prize winners.

Most Everyone knows POTUS 45/47 was recently awarded the FIFA Peace Prize

The "FIFA Peace Prize" was obviously a stupid joke that Trump didn't get.

Anwar Sadat co-won his Nobel Peace Prize with Menachem Begin. Yassir Arafat co-won his with Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres.

Jews and Muslims working together. Sadat and Rabin were eventually assassinated by their own people.
