This is the reason why the corrupt b*stards in FIFA expanded the tournament 32 nations was PREFECT, instead of expanding it, in 2026 they should have looked at a fairer allocation system but they ruined the tournament and qualifying process as well.

No China, No India, No Canada, No Chile, No Bangladesh, No Philippines, No Indonesia, No Pakistan, No USA, No Netherlands, No Algeria, No Congo, No Ethiopia major populations centres and real financial wealth missing in the 2018 edition.

 

[Yehuda]

The world is missing out on all that Pakistani talent.

 

[Premeditated]

Jozy Altidore will now be a no-show for this country for 3 straight world cups.

Goddamn.

at least he gets to go home to Sloane Stephens, but she probably gonna look at him like "I did my part...........no nookie for the time being"

 

[ShenJingPoQi]

Those nations are more about their overall financial weight and population. Nearly 3 billion worth of people in those nations highlighted. FIFA cronies must be crying in their sleep on how his qualification campaign went.

 

[ShenJingPoQi]

On one hand, CAF qualifying would no longer be a aggravating nuisance for the African countries if they get expansion. CAF qualifying is absolutely brutal.

True, logistically Asia and Africa is a nightmare, they should look to spilt the confederations. West Asia, East Asia, West/South Africa, North/East Africa, or something along these lines.

 

[Concerning VIolence]

You ain't lying breh, like how ya'll put Nigeria and Cameroon in the same group and only one qualifies

EASILY the toughest qualifying region.

 

[#1 pick]

Panama

@Cocaine Biceps I'm so happy right now

are they doing.

Wait hold up I fell asleep during the Argentina game just woke up and what do I see?

How the fukk did US not qualify?
Brazil has no chill dropped 3 on Chile to make sure they don't qualify.
Mexico and Costa Rica probably lost on purpose

No US, no Dutch, no Ghana, no Chile. Argentina and Portugal dodged bullets. It would have been interesting if the 2 best players in the world missed the world cup

None of those countries deserve to make it

 

[THEREALBRAND]

I see somebody's still missing the party.
@LinusCaldwell bring that ass here :SmugBlatt:

 

[raidersreceiver]

As a Mexico fan seeing USA, Chile and Netherlands fail to qualify this is awesome

 

[4-Rin]

His point was population wise FIFA was missing out on those markets. India, China are the most populated countries in the world. Ethiopia is the second most populated country in Africa behind Nigeria.

 

[010101]

it's a decision the us has to make
i say sacrifice gridiron football for international football
why settle for money in one country when you could be pulling in pay on every continent
