Martyn Ziegler deserves a Pulitzer Prize for this. He has saved football. There is no way that Infantino survives now and it's all because Ziegler somehow broke the story.

Superb.

Scored a brace against Congo though so he's the best striker of all time
Tenk å spille sånn i en VM-semi. Dominere totalt, skape 7-8 sjanser på en halvtime. Når presset er som størst, og du er eldre enn Roger Milla var i VM 1990.
