Find me a sports organization that lets people run freely on its fields of play.

It's not missing the point at all. There is no sports organization that would allow someone to run freely on the field like that, yet that commenter (and you) are trying to paint this like it's a FIFA doing something wrong.

It's just flat out disingenuous. There's more than enough to criticize FIFA for, this isn't one of them.

Absolutely not missing the point, doesn't matter what flag he has or shirt he's wearing, running out on the field in a sport will usually get you arrested or banned, how many times do you see people get tackled by security and hauled off by the police in MLB and NFL games for doing the same thing
