Belgium winger Jeremy Doku says he will leave the World Cup camp to attend the birth of his first child, drawing sharp criticism from French presenter France Pierron, who called fathers “completely useless” at childbirth.
Pierron later apologised, but support for Doku poured in, with retired boxer Brahim Asloum insisting “a baby is your entire life.”
