1 week agoEngland fans' World Cup arrest record shows Infantino joke inaccurate
Referencing concerns about this year's World Cup in north America and criticism in the build-up to Qatar 2022, Infantino said: "For the first time in history, also, no Brit was arrested during a World Cup." To laughter at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland, he added: "Imagine. This is something really, really special." Understandably the comments angered the Football Supporters' Association, which accused Infantino of making "cheap jokes" about England fans.
