This is utter bullshit. When Indonesia refused to grant the Israeli under 17 team visa’s for the 2023 U-20 World Cup, FIFA stripped Indonesia’s hosting rights and moved it to Argentina. So @FIFAcom can stop with the lies.
Yeah let's give the most financially lucrative sporting event in the world to a country that hates football AND foreigners. What's the worst that could happen??
Comunicado oficial con nuestras aclaraciones sobre el comunicado oficial de nuestros vecinos @realmadrid:
1. Se os cortó el vídeo del Papa donde decía que también era del Atleti.
2. Habréis confundido la educación con agradecimiento, pero para que no haya dudas: no os agradecemos nada.
3. Ni estudiamos ni valoramos ninguna oferta por Julián.
4. Cómo no nos vamos a llevar bien, si nos hacéis reír aún más que el @FCBarcelona_es.
@Alonso_GD Naive to expect America to be any different here. It’s FIFA that held the cards and could still stand up for themselves. They’re letting football down.
The referee appointed to @FIFAWorldCup by FIFA referees committee was unable to enter the US due to visa issues.
@FIFAcom failed miserably in this regard.
The slogan ‘Football unites’ rang hollow.
Disgrace!
Gianni Infantino, 2025: "It’s important to clarify this. There is a lot of misconception out there. Everyone will be welcome in Canada, Mexico and the United States for the FIFA World Cup next year."
FIFA today: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 👉 🇺🇸

Where is your voice,Infantino?
As African players,referees,Journalists and fans are humiliated. World Cup is supposed to Unite according to FIFA slogan.
You preach "global football" and "unity" why are people suffering because US border politics?
Stand up or step down.

What an absolute disgrace. A FIFA-certified referee being denied entry to the United States purely because he is Somali.
The World Cup is meant to bring people together. This is racism, plain and simple. Shameful.

HOW is a nation that bid to host the World Cup ALLOWED to not admit all the participants in the country? HOW isn't this a PREREQUISITE to let you host the whole thing? What are we even talking about?
