Although i was absent with regard to the world cup...
Well, I would like to ask a question, what is your opinion regarding the increase in teams during the world cup? 32 to 48 participating teams is a massive increase in my opinion.

It is a massive increase, absolutely. That's 50% more teams playing than in Qatar.

I really don't know why there's such a huge increase in the number of teams, the world cup is supposed to be a difficult thing to qualify.

For example, in South America(conmebol) out of 10 teams, there are currently 4 direct slots and the 5th has to play against an Asian team.

In the future there will be 6 direct slots, and the 7th has to play with another team from another federation.

Having up to 70% of the teams qualifying into the world cup is a bit too much in my opinion. Only 3 teams will be out.

The tournament's level of competitiveness is lessened even if it does provide more countries the chance to play. With so many countries competing, there is a higher likelihood that a lower-ranked team may advance to the latter rounds of the competition, which can lessen the thrill and prestige of the World Cup.

A decrease in the competitiveness of the qualifying matches may result from more teams competing straight from various confederations. As you indicated, the race for the seventh berth won't be as tough as it once was with 6 teams qualifying straight from CONMEBOL. This might result in fewer interesting and significant matches during the qualification round.

I am aware that FIFA wants to increase the number of countries that may compete in the World Cup. However, there should be a balance between the number of teams competing and the quality of competition in order to preserve the tournament's status and interest.

As the number of teams into FIFA had been increased, countries like India can have their entry. However to reach through the qualifiers is really hard for a country like India. If Indian people have supported long back itself India might've emerged good, but India is much into cricket and recently people have begun to watch football a encourage their children playing football.

The next world cup will be interesting to see. Many new countries that have never qualified before will be able to get there.

Not sure if that's a great thing really because at the end of the day the first stage of the world cup will basically turn into a qualification round.

The whole point of having only qualified nations into the world cup is to see the best of the best playing against each other, kinda like the champions league.

Oh, I did not know that Fifa Ban Indian football too. They also banned our country, not for security reasons but because they believe that our offices were controlled by third-party. Later on in 2022, this ban was lifted and we had a sign of relief.
More details:- FIFA lifts suspension of Pakistan Football Federation

By the way, when we see the progress of our neighboring countries like Saudia Arab, Qatar, Japan, Korea, Iran, etc, we see that both Pakistan and India are left behind in this race of become a strong football nation.

FIFA has lifted ban on Indian football federation last year and India fifa ranking is 106 which is far better then Pakistan. As Pakistan is standing at very last position of Fifa ranking i.e. 195th position. Still India is far away from qualifying for FIFA worldcup despite the fact that they have good leagues going on in the country. India may qualify for 2034 WC if they keep moving with current pace.

These days, we can't separate football from politics or economics or any other domain. For the majority of people who attended it, the Qatar World Cup was one of the greatest in history, but due to some problems with some European countries, a big attack had started before the beginning of the tournament and continued throughout the whole tournament. I'm not defending Qatar here, but one should take all opinions into consideration. We can easily pretend that USA managed to win the 2026 World Cup organizing honor because they have a lot of money to buy the votes of many of the local federations, but in reality, they have introduced the best offer. Apart from this, FIFA always strives to make additional profit. There is no doubt about that, as profit facilitates the development of football in a lot of countries and helps increase the revenues of local federations.
Additionally, I don't know what benefit FIFA could make from Ecuador more than Chile. If this was the case, they would have manipulated something to make Italy attend the tournament.

It was actually true what Chile presented against Ecuador, because FIFA sanctioned Ecuador for this new World Cup. In a normal situation Ecuador would have had forfeited their points for the games where the player was on the field, and giving a win to the other team. Running the math you end up with Chile qualifying instead of Ecuador. That's what should have happened, per FIFA regulations.

I think the whole issue with Ecuador not being sanctioned for Qatar was that it was just too close to the start of the tournament.

At the end of the day there are practical considerations that need to be followed. No tournament is ever going to be perfect.

In any case, I think Ecuador got a really small penalty now (-3 points) compared to what they were supposed to have in Qatar.

It's no secret that FIFA is first and foremost an interest organization, whose main goal is not football development and transparency, but exclusive profit.
It's an open secret that Russia and especially Qatar won the hosting of the world championship in a very dubious way, probably through corruption.
That is why this case with Ecuador is not surprising. It was simply not in FIFA's interest to reveal the truth and have a scandal that would damage their image in the public, on the eve of the World Cup in Qatar.
It all comes down to politics and money in the end, as always.

This is the role of media in destroying a country's image just because of any incident that happened in that particular country. Same thing happens with Pakistan all the time , bad media coverage and wrong reporting unfact exaggeration makes any country an insecure country to live in .
All countries have their good and bad points and I am sure mexico is not just about drug cartels or criminals there will be uch more than that and for fifa fans there will be much more to explore and experience.

I am from Pakistan and we have been through this situation where we were denied hosting any international cricket match for 10 years because there was a terrorist attack on the Srilanka team in our country.
That is now history but the rival countries always hesitate to visit our country and give excuses of that event. This is not right as the security situation is improved over time.
I hope Mexico does not face the same unjustice situation which we have been facing for the last many years.

This same thing happens in India also that made FIFA to ban India n football federation from participating in football and other similar sports because of what had ensue many years ago. I don't blame anyone for this but this most time could be as a result of insecurity that lead to the rampage causing a serious scene that had lead to sanctions.

Oh, I did not know that Fifa Ban Indian football too. They also banned our country, not for security reasons but because they believe that our offices were controlled by third-party. Later on in 2022, this ban was lifted and we had a sign of relief.

I think what happened to India is somehow related to FIFA's ban to Pakistan because the reasons of the council is because they are causing some doubts to the Football Federation because of the influence of some 3rd party. We all know that FIFA just wanted a clean and fair World Cup match and I know they won't be imposing some heavy restrictions if they haven't had some basis in the first place but if India will show some improvements, maybe they can participate in the upcoming World Cup.

This is another disgraceful decision by FIFA who did not react in time and allowed Ecuador to participate in the World Cup in Qatar even though it was obvious that they broke the rules and one of their players illegally played for them in the World Cup qualifiers.
It was more important for FIFA not to create unnecessary confusion before the start of the World Cup in Qatar than to correct the injustice and allow Chile to play instead of Ecuador.
What does this subsequent punishment to Ecuador mean to the unfortunate Chileans? Absolutely nothing.
Football is always about money and not about justice and fairness.

It is really a bad look, either they though Ecuador did nothing wrong, and let them play, or they think Ecuador did something wrong, and should have acted on that.

The fact that they think Ecuador did something wrong, and instead of acting and discounting the points in which the player was in the field, they simply ignored that, and just gave a 3 point penalty to Ecuador in the next tournament.

That seems like nothing compared to what was supposed to happen.

It's no secret that FIFA is first and foremost an interest organization, whose main goal is not football development and transparency, but exclusive profit.
It's an open secret that Russia and especially Qatar won the hosting of the world championship in a very dubious way, probably through corruption.

Yeah, it's terribly bad that FIFA has banned both Pakistan and India. To prevent these types of scenarios, it is crucial for the national football associations in these nations to make sure they are abiding by all FIFA laws and guidelines. It's also important to remember that, even if other nations in the area have advanced significantly in football, Pakistan and India are still capable of catching up. Simply said, it calls for a lot of effort and commitment from all participants in the sport, including athletes, coaches, and officials. A statistical analysis of the infrastructure and youth programs for football in these nations is also worthwhile to identify areas for improvement. I have no doubt that Pakistan and India can also develop into powerful football countries with the appropriate approaches.

Oh, I did not know that Fifa Ban Indian football too. They also banned our country, not for security reasons but because they believe that our offices were controlled by third-party. Later on in 2022, this ban was lifted and we had a sign of relief.

I checked with Asian zone have added about 8 countries or national team will get automatic ticket playing for FIFA World Cup, will have bigger chance because our national team success qualify to Asian Cup in this years and I hope can success at qualify for
FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States will begin for several months later.

If the official PSSI is still money-oriented and power-hungry, that look hard for Indonesia to go to the next world cup in 2026. Right now, the official is still busy preparing the Election chairman of PSSI. and they forget about world cup 2026 preparation, they forget also if the plan to qualification is not easy and needs much time to prepare to select the player, coach, and new talent.

So, I don't expect too much, that looks impossible if you hope to qualified. Indonesia's Team is the same as before, don't have motivation as a participant, because the loss is a habit, and the official is never thinking about how to receive achievement, next world cup 2026 I am still pessimistic that Indonesia is still a spectator.

It is true that the PSSI management from the past until now have only thought about their personal interests and have only been busy enriching themselves by becoming members of the PSSI management.
They don't care and think about the fate of the Indonesian national football team, all they care about is the best way to earn some money by taking advantage of their position as PSSI members and there are always problems in seizing power in becoming the general chairman of PSSI.
If this situation continues, it will only be a joke if Indonesia can survive and participate in the upcoming World Cup. Not to mention that it will be difficult for Indonesia to win the World Cup in the Asian Cup.
So it will only be in vain if Indonesia participates in the World Cup because PSSI as an association or Indonesian football committee has taken no further action on this matter.

That 2 ministers and Ex-Corruptor are interested to join the chairman of PSSI which I think they don't have shamed. Eric Tohir sells himself as ex the owner of Inter Milan, he said as accustomed to managing football, but I think he has other interests. Because He is a minister, that should have policies even different departments to rain the money if wants to make Indonesia Football strong in World Cup 2026. While La Nyala once served but we know no achievements whatsoever, He just sell his self for senator election in 2024.

Why would a Minister put himself forward as a candidate for general chairman of PSSI even though he is the former owner of Inter Milan not to make it a guarantee that Indonesian football will be even better.
In my opinion, it is better if PSSI members are properly selected and only those who understand and are able to advance Indonesian football are selected who deserve to be members of the PSSI board.
Indonesia has many coaches and football team managers who are very talented and not so hungry for power and wealth. They can be selected and joined as members of the PSSI board.

And those 3 points mean absolutely nothing as now with the increase on the number of teams which will qualify to the world cup CONMEBOL went from 4.5 spots to 6.33 which in theory could allow 7 out of 10 teams to make it to the world cup, so it is very likely that despite such a penalty Ecuador will make it to the next world cup without any problem, so I think of this sanction as purely symbolic as I doubt it will have any effect at all.

Exactly my take as well, having to host a world cup I believe is an honor to any country that is given the opportunity, Mexico, alongside Canada and USA have been honored with this opportunity, I am sure that none of them would want to mess anything up, I personally see this countries going on top one another to give us the best world cup experience, because their performance in hosting the world cup would definitely be something alot of people would be talking about since it's the first time we are seeing three different countries hosting a world cup, none of the chosen countries would want to tagged the worst 2026 world cup host, so I believe Mexico will fix their self up before the year for the tournament to kick off.

I believe Mexico won't have any issues when the time of the World Cup comes. It's not an unusual practice in latin america for governments to negotiate with criminals on the backgrounds to avoid issues during international events hosted by the country which boost the local economy. After all, the criminals also have interest the event is successful, as there are tourists who make use of illegal susbstances, generating income for them.

I don't know if anyone is still surprised or shocked by this at this point, but that is how things work for real. That is the stark truth.

This is the role of media in destroying a country's image just because of any incident that happened in that particular country. Same thing happens with Pakistan all the time , bad media coverage and wrong reporting unfact exaggeration makes any country an insecure country to live in .
All countries have their good and bad points and I am sure mexico is not just about drug cartels or criminals there will be uch more than that and for fifa fans there will be much more to explore and experience.

Media should not relate this incident with the Mexico to host the FIFA world cup because of two reasons.

First, there is still four year before the world cup will be played and a bad security condition at this point, does not mean that there is no roam for improvement. Mexico can take measures to improve their law and order conditions and more importantly there will be more security deployed when the world cup matches will be in progress in Mexico and the risk of an unfortunate incident will be reduced a lot.

Besides, the FIFA council are also watching the Mexico's government and its movement just to make sure that the upcoming games of the FIFA Word Cup 2026 will be a lot safe and if the FIFA will not be impressed by what they are doing, they can always remove some of the games that will be hosted by the Mexico and will re-arrange what place will be more suitable because I know they are also making the safety a priority. Anyway, there's still a lot of time to prepare for it.

Out of the total 80 matches, 10 matches each will be hosted by Canada and Mexico. So in case there is any law and order situation at Mexico or the conditions at Mexico are not good till 2025, the FIFA can easily manage these 10 matches through Canada and USA. Anyways Mexico will never want this to happen and i am sure they have plans to make their country safe before the start of this 2026 FIFA world cup.

Exactly my take as well, having to host a world cup I believe is an honor to any country that is given the opportunity, Mexico, alongside Canada and USA have been honored with this opportunity, I am sure that none of them would want to mess anything up, I personally see this countries going on top one another to give us the best world cup experience, because their performance in hosting the world cup would definitely be something alot of people would be talking about since it's the first time we are seeing three different countries hosting a world cup, none of the chosen countries would want to tagged the worst 2026 world cup host, so I believe Mexico will fix their self up before the year for the tournament to kick off.

This is another disgraceful decision by FIFA who did not react in time and allowed Ecuador to participate in the World Cup in Qatar even though it was obvious that they broke the rules and one of their players illegally played for them in the World Cup qualifiers.
It was more important for FIFA not to create unnecessary confusion before the start of the World Cup in Qatar than to correct the injustice and allow Chile to play instead of Ecuador.
What does this subsequent punishment to Ecuador mean to the unfortunate Chileans? Absolutely nothing.
Football is always about money and not about justice and fairness.

It is really a bad look, either they though Ecuador did nothing wrong, and let them play, or they think Ecuador did something wrong, and should have acted on that.

The fact that they think Ecuador did something wrong, and instead of acting and discounting the points in which the player was in the field, they simply ignored that, and just gave a 3 point penalty to Ecuador in the next tournament.

That seems like nothing compared to what was supposed to happen.

This is the role of media in destroying a country's image just because of any incident that happened in that particular country. Same thing happens with Pakistan all the time , bad media coverage and wrong reporting unfact exaggeration makes any country an insecure country to live in .
All countries have their good and bad points and I am sure mexico is not just about drug cartels or criminals there will be uch more than that and for fifa fans there will be much more to explore and experience.

I am from Pakistan and we have been through this situation where we were denied hosting any international cricket match for 10 years because there was a terrorist attack on the Srilanka team in our country.
That is now history but the rival countries always hesitate to visit our country and give excuses of that event. This is not right as the security situation is improved over time.
I hope Mexico does not face the same unjustice situation which we have been facing for the last many years.

We cannot really blame them because the management of FIFA just wanted a safe environment for all the viewers and players in every team that will be participating in the said match as well as every people needed to support the team. So, even if we say that the security of the country has improved, conditions may still vary because the FIFA will still look for a country that can host some games that will be also profitable to them, let's say it's a win-win situation for both the country and organization. In addition, that's likely the reason why your country were denied to host any international cricket games.

Media should not relate this incident with the Mexico to host the FIFA world cup because of two reasons.

First, there is still four year before the world cup will be played and a bad security condition at this point, does not mean that there is no roam for improvement. Mexico can take measures to improve their law and order conditions and more importantly there will be more security deployed when the world cup matches will be in progress in Mexico and the risk of an unfortunate incident will be reduced a lot.

The media house is not supposed cover a news that is not real. Only thing I would say here is the media companies broadcast news differently in different Countries. The way the media houses broadcast news in the advance countries are different from the ones in the developing countries. The sanctions that against bad broadcasting in the world is not really utilize mostly in the developing countries so media houses do things the way they like.
Broadcasting is a way of marketing the country's image so what comes out from the broadcasting room always supposed to be legit because people move about with the information gotten from the media house. But for the Mexico case, to some extent pre-information is good the visitors that are going to the country for the very first time, so that they would know how to move about.
