Next FIFA President

I know that penalty award is probably correct under the current laws and interpretations, but it still doesn't seem right.

They are starting to regret that decision now, it seems.

FIFA just now realising that Infantino's 16 group WC format would be a huge mistake. Back when they chose it, it was voted in unanimously by the FIFA Council (36 votes)! And now they are hinting at a format that was specifically NOT allowed, with the Finalists playing 8 games.

How incredibly sad that, thanks to Infantino's greed and ridiculous three-team groups format, there is no chance that four years from now, we can experience a World Cup day like we witnessed today with all its twists and turns.

What a great day for Australia! A team without stars, who had a plan, stuck to it, and ultimately executed it.

And with that, Qatar are eliminated from their own tournament.

Just finished watching FIFA Uncovered. Brought back lots of memories. Had forgotten that after the FBI raid, some that remained expressed their surprise at the corruption that had surrounded them. Yet many of us outsiders knew for the best part of four decades.

Look at his face! Just look at his face!

JP Dellacamera must be the worst soccer commentator on TV. I don't need to be told what minute of the game we're in every 2-3 minutes. If I need to know I'll look at the clock in the corner.

This little beauty arrived today. And it fits, Thanks, @paul_c_watson.

Ayew probably should have been sent off, and two minutes later he scores. Wow.

Clear foul throw by Sessegnon, not penalised.

FIFA's initial statement is nowhere near strong enough. Russia should be immediately expelled from FIFA and should not be allowed to reapply until one year after Putin is no longer in power. For each day Russia continues its hostilities, additional punishments should be added.

I have to assume at least one of the people being indicted is a former OFC President who resigned suddenly "for personal reasons." oceaniafootball.com/ofc-stat…

Zoi!

Both VAR decisions in Brighton-Palace were correct for me. I just don't understand why both took so long. A few seconds was all that was needed for each.

RIP Andrew Jennings. As I strove to understand FIFA's inner machinations, time and again I ended up turning to his work. playthegame.org/news/news-ar…

Does anyone else think this advice from my local referees' body is asking for trouble? I can see nothing good resulting from this. Just a bunch of angry players, coaches and spectators.
