5-1. Iran are putrid
And yes, expansion to 48 is nonsensical
It seems that the more any sports entity chase revenue streams the worse it gets for the average fan
I think it would make more sense have it every 3 years than expanding it, especially with the proposed groups of 3. All those qualifying games and prep and you're out after 2 games?
Every 3 years would allow for a year of qualifying and a year for the confederation tournament. Screw that stupid nations cup. The minnows can play during the World Cup year to begin qualifying for the next one. Plus, I'm getting older. I don't know how many four-year cycles I've got left in me, lol
