The ‘Sky Sports News desperate struggle for content as they cover a major tournament they don’t own the rights for’ is off to an absolute flyer as - a reporter shows us what rain looks like from inside a taxi parked outside the stadium where the game took place

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.

Back in 2010, Sam Allardyce tried to fire up his Blackburn Rovers squad before facing Manchester United by showing them scenes from Gladiator.

Gaël Givet recalled: “We were all shouting, ‘Ahhhhh!’ like warriors with swords… 30 minutes later, we were 3-0 down. We lost 7-1.”

Unreal. 🤣👏

Letting other teams have the ball is ok when you can use it when you have it. We're never set up to take advantage of those moments when we win it back as we never have numbers forward and when we do play it from the back, all the players look drunk. #cafc

[sixyardcecil @sixyardcecil]

Is there any point in us playing three in the middle and three at the back if teams can just play through us like that? #cafc

Italy not qualifying for the World Cup is a shock then you remember that McTominay is basically Socrates reincarnated in the Serie A
