The FIFA Club World Cup is the worst idea ever implemented in football, Jurgen Klopp said recently. The manager of PSG, Luis Enrique, said the ball bounces like a rabbit. There has been a lot of criticism and negative PR against the FIFA World Cup. Hot weather, players not getting enough rest before the next season, empty stadiums, awful pitches, poor viewership numbers, and worst of all, Donald Trump asking transphobic questions to Juventus players in the White House. However, there has been one bright silver lining to it. Let me explain to you with an example. Auckland City FC, a team of part-time footballers, played one of the biggest clubs in the world, Bayern Munich, in an official FIFA tournament. Yes, the club got a handsome amount of money for participation, but there is something bigger than money. Thatās hope. Because of the FIFA Club World Cup, now more and more football clubs and footballers can dream of playing in a major football tournament alongside the star footballers and famous football teams. In my opinion, this is a huge boost to football development across the world for both footballers and clubs. Now, more and more footballers can dream of playing at the international stage, which makes the sport more democratic, accessibleĀ andĀ beautiful.
