Old Sod's Army- Infantine Infantino
« on: December 04, 2022, 09:26:43 AM »
I see that the next WC will house 48 countries, up from 36, and as Tarrantino er Infantino thinks the group stage is not exciting enough there will three sides in each group. Emm.

How bizarre, this has been possibly the most exiting WC ever.

I read or heard somewhere that all group games in the next WC will be decided by penalties if a draw after 90 mins (or possibly ET, not certain).

Anyone else seen anything about the format? I also just read FIFA are now considering abandoning the 3 teams per group format but 48 countries will definitely compete in the 2026 WC. Good Lord 🤦‍♂️

It is total excrement devised by a GOBLIN in the form of the odious heinous creatures that call themselves FIFA.

Not exactly the format Infantile has in mind.
