Football Daily | Fifa channels Barry from EastEnders to cue up the Saudi World Cup
Briefly

"The crescendo of Barry from EastEnders' rendition of Labi Siffre's song during the 2014 Indoor Bowls Championships aptly depicts a willful dismissal of dissent by those in power."
"Fifa is set to award the 2034 World Cup to Saudi Arabia under the leadership of Gianni Infantino, despite widespread criticism of the country's human rights record."
"Norwegian FA has publicly stated its opposition to awarding the World Cups to Saudi Arabia, while English FA is caught between criticism and accusations of hypocrisy in staying silent on the issue."
"The ceremony for the World Cup bids will be online-only, shielding Infantino from scrutiny, as he seeks to celebrate rather than face dissent regarding controversial choices."
