I can’t take a “sport” that would host their premier event in South Africa, Brazil, Russia and Qatar seriously.

Or the US.

The US deserves to hold the Third-World Cup over Qatar. But they lost the bid. Why? Because FIFA is a corrupt organization.

The third-worlders were bribed by the Qataris with money and seats from the wasteful venues they are going to build and tear down for a host nation that is the size of Connecticut.

I have no use for a one-world cup for a sport that resolves even championship games with a shootout, in case of a tie.
