Watch every match of The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Live on Kayo Sports. Starts THU 6 OCT 7:30PM AEDT.“The FIFA Council, representing the entire world of football, unanimously agreed to celebrate the centenary of the FIFA World Cup, whose first edition was played in Uruguay in 1930, in the most appropriate way.”
The move drew immediate criticism from the influential lobby group Football Supporters Europe, who described it as “the end of the World Cup as we know it”. According to FIFA, a “centenary ceremony” will be held “at the stadium where it all began”, in Montevideo’s Estadio Centenario in 1930, when the event brought together 13 teams in a single host city -- compared with 32 for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and 48 from the 2026 World Cup in North America onwards.- Australia-New Zealand for 2034 ... or Saudi Arabia? -
Australia has not attempted to host the men’s World Cup since its ill-fated, and controversial, bid for the 2022 tournament, won by Qatar. FIFA also said it was inviting bids from the Asian and Oceanian continental confederations for the 2034 World Cup.Nonetheless, the announcement means the door is also open to money giant Saudi Arabia, which confirmed it was a candidate in the latest step in a campaign to turn the kingdom into a global sports powerhouse.
