So exclude Russia from competitions but allow countries like this?
And no...I am not 'pro-Russia' by the way before that somehow becomes a thing. I am anti-war. So you want to exclude Russian footballers for something their government is doing even if they don't agree with it? Stupid. Especially because football and politics/religion are supposed to be separate.
But ok. I understand. But than how does allowing Iran to play (or any other country that does something like this) make any sense?
I dont want to sound too political but America did participated in World cup despite fighting a brutal war in Iraq and Afghanistan and so do USSR during Soviet Afghan war. Fifa has become highly politicised recent time which isn't a good sign. As much i hate current Iranian regime but they doesn't deserved to replaced by UKR in world cup(rumoured to replce Iran with Ukraine)
You fear because you live without Love Pioli
Agreed. FIFA plays the 'holy' card. But they don't keep the playing field level. They don't treat everyone the same. They should just shut up about 'equality' and 'peace' because they've been shit in promoting them. Just be a football governing body and stay away from political themes. Because like I said, even if a country's government does something, why should football players or fans of that country pay the consequences?
So France - Argentina final. Two teams that I've disliked my whole life. But the "lesser evil" is France because of Theo and Giroud. So I hope France wins

Yup, I'll also support France only because of our players. It might do them well in moral department. It's always better to return as winner than loser
3rd place game I won't even bother to watch... Two decadent teams with their let's kill football "tactics"... I despise... Whoever win it, it will be undeserved... I get that they have to play that way, cause it's the only chance for them to acquire some result, but I still despise
Avaiting for arrival of exorcist into our boardroom.
