Infantino was asked by a BBC journalist if he's embarrassed by what has come to pass and does he accept he's lost control of his tournament here.

His response: “in 2035, the Women’s World Cup, I think, will be in the UK. Would you find it normal that FIFA will dictate to the British government who to let in the country and who not to let in?”

World Cup ticket sales have been a disaster.

FIFA held back tickets to create artificial scarcity, launched its own resale platform with a 15% fee for both buyers and sellers, and now there are still 180,000 tickets available for purchase.

One week to go until World Cup kickoff, and FIFA still has thousands of pricey tickets for sale.

How will FIFA get rid of them? Cutting prices at the last minute? Dumping them on resale sites? More ticket giveaways?
