I'm sorry to say this but this is going to be one of the worst word cups ever, things look bad even before the tournament has started. All the same I wish my team Spain to win, our African brothers to have a good tournament and Messi to have a good tournament as well.

Nonsense! When players need a short break, you are calling them for interviews? Then when will coaches have time to give players the usual pep-talks which lead to change in strategy and eventual victory, especially to teams that are down in the first half? Revisit the champions League final in Istanbul when Liverpool came back from 3 goals down to clinch it. Infantino is simply crazy!!

This is utter bullshit. Football is not an American game they should be willing to follow the game rules and customs without compromising it. but that's not in their nature it's either it break or bend there no in-between for them. Utter rubbish
