His point was population wise FIFA was missing out on those markets. India, China are the most populated countries in the world. Ethiopia is the second most populated country in Africa behind Nigeria.
they have 3 billion plus people between them and they're all terrible at football:yeshrug:they're still gonna be watching so it doesn't really affect FIFA.

Philly to Seatown
Chile fukked up in the worst possible way. They only needed something like 3 or 4 points from 4 games win to qualify. I feel like they could do more damage over Peru in the World Cup i.e actually getting out of the group stages but when you coke the way Chile did these past 2 months, its hard to feel sorry or them.

USA not getting in was:lolbron:. Losing to T&T is shameful. I know Klinsman was at home laughing his ass off.

USA didn't get a single W on the road during qualifying.

@Costa Rica, L 4-0
@Panama, D 1-1
@Mexico, D 1-1
@Honduras, D 1-1
@Trinidad, L 2-1


Or you could make it even simpler...

They got 6 pts at home vs Mexico and Costa Rica last cycle.
Going back to the 1998 cycle, they never had less than four.

This time they got ZERO. Missed out by 1 point.

They didn't deserve it.

Radamel Falcao accused of fixing
Towards the end of the Peru v Colombia game, Monaco star Radamel Falcao started getting very chatty with his opposition.


Falcao covered his mouth with his hand as he talking to the Peru players.

What was El Tigre trying to hide from the cameras?

The answer seemed to be provided by the Peruvian reactions to Falcao’s chat. Immediately afterwards ‘calm down’ signals were being transmitted around the Peru team.

It seemed pretty clear that Falcao told Peru to stop going for the win as a draw benefitted both nations.
