"This was supposed to be the most spectacular FIFA men’s World Cup in history.
There are more national teams (48), more host countries (three) and more
matches (104) than ever before.
For 39 glorious days, billions of people around the world will be glued to
their screens watching.
FIFA has estimated it could result in as much as US$30.5 billion (A$43 billion)
in tourist revenue for the United States, Canada and Mexico – the three host
countries.
Yet much of the pre-tournament gloss has been eroded by events that have taken
place far from the playing fields."
