00:00The president of FIFA, Gianni Infantino.
00:03FIFA, FIFA, where's Gianni?
00:06What do we want as persons?
00:08We want to be healthy and happy, don't we?
00:12FIFA is official health and happiness provider to humanity
00:18because that's what football is doing.
00:23It's now or never.
00:25Now is the opportunity.
00:26Now we have to take this opportunity.
00:28Now we have to take the turn.
00:30We have to make a better FIFA.
00:34Let's go FIFA.
00:35Let's go FIFA.
00:37Thank you so much.
00:39I think Sepp Batter is presiding over a deeply flawed culture
00:42and for those reasons he should go.
00:44I'm not ashamed.
00:46I regret, but I'm not ashamed.
00:47I think FIFA needs to come back to football
00:50and I think I'm somebody who can bring FIFA back to football.
00:54We will restore the image of FIFA and the respect of FIFA
00:58and everyone in the world will applaud us
01:00and will applaud all of you
01:03for what we'll do in FIFA in the future.
01:06He's not a politician.
01:07He's not a superstar.
01:08I'm very confident he is a right man.
01:12I can say it even more, with more conviction
01:16because I lifted and you lifted.
01:18It is the best World Cup ever.
01:20Today, I have very strong feelings.
01:25Today I feel Qatari, Arab, African, gay, disabled,
01:30a migrant worker.
01:31You can crucify me.
01:33I'm here for that.
01:36We heard as well that financially it would not work.
01:42It would be a flop.
01:44Nobody's interested.
01:45It is already the most successful club competition
01:47in the world from all different measurements.
01:53104 Super Bowls in one month.
01:57Maybe sometimes it's good as well to chill, relax.
02:03We are investing this revenue in the growth of the game.
02:08Nobody else is doing that.
02:09Nobody.
02:10Nobody.
02:10I didn't tell him what to do.
02:12I can't tell him what to do.
02:13I don't believe he made the decision.
02:14I think it was a committee that made the decision
02:16and they made the right decision.
02:18We will see if it is still with 48 teams
02:20which have been very successful
02:21or maybe with 64 teams.
02:23We will have to discuss that.
02:26As FIFA president,
02:27I have the statutory responsibility
02:30to generate the income
02:34which allows FIFA to invest
02:38in all of these countries
02:40where otherwise nobody would invest.
02:42President of FIFA, Johnny Inventino.
