And what鈥檚 going on with the Infantino bromance?
We鈥檝e got together with Americast/Newscast and Football Daily for three special episodes on what could be the most political World Cup ever.

We tell you everything you need to know about what鈥檚 going on off the pitch.
Anthony Zurcher and Marianna Spring join from Americast, and 5 Live football commentary legend John Murray is on from Football Daily.
