$100 mill for each FIFA asshole to make it happen, of course they won’t be transparent about corruption and bribery. Just look at that scumbag Infantino…bastards all of them…purge needs to happen all over again
It seems transparent, who ever bribes the most gets it.
She’s welcome to go the local Saudi Embassy to discuss things with the minister of Carpentry and Power Tools.
She also took the stage in a FIFA congress last year holding this speech. She is not messing about.
That speech was pretty magnificent. I don’t think it’s going to sway FIFA away from corruption though. They’re too far gone.
Who watches the Olympics anymore, unless the us Congress is live on TV, there’s nothing else comes close in terms of corruption for a televised event.
I stopped watching years ago
Uhhh did u not see the last one…the winter cup of penalties for Pessi….
This is so cliche, it’s the equivalent of complaining that MTV no longer plays music videos.
She is right!

I’d like to see the country who gets the men’s World Cup also host the women’s World Cup. Would make sense to re-use infrastructure. FIFA would prove they care about women’s game. Would the Emirati nations still want in?
Actually dont think.thats a good idea. The men play june to juli. The women cant play simultaneously with the men, because that would exceed the capacities for fan accomodation as well as might push the pitches beyond what they can take.
So if they have to play immediately afterwards, people most certainly will care less since the greatest tournament has just ended a few days prior and this is dominating the headlines, so the women would be an afterthought.
So imo its good that they play somewhere else in different years, as this allows people in other markets to get excited for a tournament.
She may not be popular for what the Norwegian football federation does domestically, but in relations to fifa and uefa she’s brilliant.
“Today I feel gay”-Gianni can go f* himself.
People knew this for decades bruh
Gianni Infantino answers the question “what would a gland with mouth, eyes and nose look like”
Genuinely, does anyone want the world cup to be in their country? It would cost billions that can go anywhere else. As far as I’m concerned, let the arab countries host every wc and Olympics from now until the end of time. We don’t need more stadiums, we need roads, schools, healthcare etc
The European Big 5 has all the stadiums and infrastructure and many other countries do as well. Brazil is an interesting example for this. They didn’t really have to spend much for the world cup. But they did anyway. They for example build a giant stadium in the capital not because they needed another stadium but because they wanted a stadium in the capital. The world cup was just an excuse.
The Olympics are a bit different. Many countries would have most of the infrastructure to host the olympics but the IOC requires them all to be in the same city which makes the costs sky rocket. The World cup happens in many different cities so it doesn’t suffer that problem.
