Fifa president Gianni Infantino’s attempt to cash in on the World Cup was always heading towards a winner-takes-all confrontation. Infantino chugging on his cigar while mentally spending his billion-dollar windfall, Uefa counterpart Aleksander Ceferin adjusting his badge and gun before pushing open the saloon doors. It’s over for you, buddy, but the World Cup carries on as before. The Fifa scheme would require the tournament to inflate further to 64 teams and perhaps become a biennial event. There is nil scope for the increases inherent in the Infantino scheme.
