Salt Bae Banned From US Open Cup Final After His Antics At 2022 FIFA World Cup

Turkish chef Nusr-et Gokce, better known as ‘Salt Bae’, has been banned from the US Open Cup final after his antics at FIFA World Cup celebrations angered football fans across the world. The US Open Cup informed this through its official Twitter page.

The decision comes after the celebrity chef caused a commotion at the FIFA World Cup final and broke a key FIFA rule. He left the fans massively annoyed after he made it onto the pitch and crashed Argentina’s World Cup celebrations at the Lusail Stadium when the players were rejoicing with their families.

In total disregard of FIFA rules, the Turkish salt sprinkler was seen grabbing the coveted FIFA trophy from other players and posing with it. If that was not enough, the chef could also be seen pestering Lionel Messi for a picture, however, the player ignored him and continued hugging his teammates instead.
