Clear and present opposition from UEFA, Concacaf and AFC force FIFA to scrap $20 billion World Cup sale to private investors

FIFA has scrapped $20 billion World Cup sell-off plan, New York Post reports FIFA's plan to sell a piece of its business empire to outside investors has collapsed following an open revolt by soccer officials ​worldwide and a major rift among top FIFA executives, the New ‌York Post reported on Friday.

Is Gianni Infantino infantile for daring to sell everybody's property: football and the World Cup? While he's still grandstanding that he's not selling football, UEFA and Concacaf have kicked against the mega billions. Where will CAF, CONMEBOL.com, OFC and AFC stand? This will not leave Infantino unscathed after all the controversial shenanigans of the World Cup.

The world of football has lost a colossus and a legend in Franco Baresi, who won gold, bronze and silver at the 1982,1990 and 1994 World Cups respectively, has just passed away at 66 years.

Baresi was one of the greatest defenders that has played football on this earth. At the start of his career, he was nicknamed Piscinin, Milanese lingo for someone little in size but the little man became a defensive giant and got re-nicknamed Kaiser Franz, a reference to Franz Beckenbauer, the legendary German defender whose nickname was Der Kaizer.

For that petite frame, Inter Milan rejected him as a player but accepted his older brother, Giuseppe, who played 559 times for Inter. Baresi was nonetheless accepted by city rivals, AC Milan, where he spent all of his 20-year, trophy-ladened career revolutionizing the art of defending as a powerful, pacy, hard tackling sweeper or libero, who launched attacks from the deep in over 700 games. Rather rich for a lad born on a farm who didn't watch football until he was ten years old.

Baresi was in the Italy Italiana team to the 1982, 1990 and 1994 World Cup winning a medal each time including the winner's medal in 1982. His number of matches were restricted to ten basically because he didn't play in 1982 in view of the presence of another defensive giant, Gaetano Scirea, who was chosen ahead of him. In 1994, he was injured after the second game, went for a keyhole surgery and returned in time for the final game against Brazil.

Baresi won six Serie A titles and three Champions League, the first 2 being when the tourney was known as European Campions Cup. He was Balon d'Or runner-up in 1989.

Fare thee, well the little big man with a wry grinyyy
