This is what endless expansion gets you.

Can't wait for them to run a worldwide tournament similar to Euro 2020, hosted just by a random collection of cities. :laff:

As much as I chuckle, by the same token major tournaments can't just be the playground of developed nations.

There needs to be a way to bridge these things

I assume its because its the 100th anniversary of the World Cup. FIFA saw that it was a success minus the final shenanigans at the Euros (60th anniversary) and decided to copy it.

Newcastle is going to pull off an upset tonight. Although I won’t see it as one. PSG aren’t as threatening as they once were. Newcastle are in the ascendancy.
