When Russia hosted the World Cup in 2018, it had to suspend normal visa rules for the tournament. Foreigners with tickets could enter visa-free, using a scheme called ‘Fan ID.’

Russia also had to do weird stuff to keep FIFA’s sponsors happy. For example, small shops near Fan Zones and stadiums could only sell Budweiser beer on match days.

So yes, FIFA absolutely does dictate conditions to host governments when it suits FIFA. Infantino pretending otherwise is nonsense.

FIFA's president can invent a farcical peace prize to flatter the ego of the president of the United States and spend months pandering to his political project, but Haiti's national team can't acknowledge their national struggle for independence because it's too "political"

Whilst I’m not disputing the overarching nature of the point being made, a PSG fan alluding to disproportionate wealth disrupting the game is deliciously ironic.

Rashford leaving means this was his last goal for Barcelona.❤️

"Julius [Randle] was really good for us in the Denver series... Now we see Chet Holmgren is no good. I can't stand these overreactions... I turn my TV off in the morning during the playoffs. I don't want to hear it."

They took out the fuel subsidy, removed the subsidy on forex, instituted a new tax regime, raked in billions of dollars, achieved nothing, and are now on the verge of borrowing Nigeria off the map!

Children of perdition turned deaf ear to that.

Tinubu will be voted out and heaven will not fall.

S. Africa, Brazil and Qatar were all painted a certain way and had their own issues but at no point were they actively stopping players, teams, referee and fans from participating in the biggest sporting event, 3 days before it starts. America gotta be the worst hosts ever

Part 9: After approval from Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, Phil Jackson brought Rodman to Chicago where the Bulls would capture the 1996 NBA title. Just weeks after the Championship, Dennis promoted the release of his autobiography, ‘Bad As I Wanna Be’ with an unforgettable marketing stunt involving him in bridal wear 💍
