Gianni Infantino, the president of FIFA, is under pressure after a failed project to sell the organization's shares to a close associate of Donald Trump. In this context, he published a video on social media on Sunday, in which he defends the record of the World Cup in the United States.


The video has an optimistic tone and presents a positive image of the competition, despite recent criticisms. Infantino highlights the achievements and positive impact of the tournament, trying to counteract the negative reactions generated by the scandal related to the sale of shares.


This defense comes at a time when FIFA is facing increased scrutiny over its financial and leadership decisions. Infantino reaffirms his commitment to organizing a successful and high-quality event, despite the challenges encountered.
