Expanded World Cup will be a mistake, says Blatter


BERLIN: FIFA president Sepp Blatter has revealed he opposes a pending decision by the organisation’s executive committee to boost from 32 to 36 the number of countries participating at the 2006 World Cup Finals. 

World football’s governing body said last Saturday in Geneva it would delay ratifying a decision on a potential increase for the tournament in Germany until next month – but has agreed to the expansion in principle.
