If you’re watching in HD, you can still see a crumb of poo on the tip of Infantino’s nose.

Hope so

Being half Scottish might make Trump influence the draw

The award they’ve made up for this event is a bigger more exciting trophy than the actual world cup trophy. This is not what anyone wants from a world cup draw event. Genuinely worried that the president has asked the president to pick the draw in advance.

He’s banned Iranian and Haitian fans from entering the country. The World Cup should be nowhere near the place.

Superb typo in the Guardian live text…

Donald Trump: "I’m going to wear it right now:

The American president accepts his medal and puts it around his own neck, before Gianni Infantino blows smoke up his nether regions by reading from his official Fifa Award certificate and telling him how great he is. “We want to see hope, we want to see unity, we want to see a future,” says Gianni. “This is what we want to see from a leader and you definitely deserve the first Fifa Peace Prize. You can always ocunt on my support to help you make peace around the world. Thank you Mr President.”

Pass the bucket.

Oh god, he’s actually doing the draw

Governor of the Bank of England to Prime Minister of Canada is a pleasingly 19th century career path.
