🎙️ Zlatko Dalić on the expanded 48-team World Cup: "Today it has become more business than sport. FIFA wants to globalise football further and give everyone a chance, but almost 50 national teams at the tournament is too many. The number of matches is increasing and players already arrive exhausted after long and demanding seasons, so the quality of the competition suffers because of that. Of course it’s an opportunity for smaller national teams, but I think it would have been better if the expansion had applied, for example, to Europe and national teams like Italy or Denmark, rather than teams from other parts of the world that can hardly be competitive.
