Power and glory: World Cup promises a spectacle impossible to ignore
Ten years in the making, the greatest show on earth is set for a six-week sprint through Trump’s AmericaThis is the end, of our elaborate plans, the end. Of everything that stands, the end. It seems fitting that football’s latest stopping point on its voyage upriver into the blank parts of the map, a mission so choice that when it’s over you may never want another one, should be a World Cup overseen by a haunted-looking man with a messiah complex, out there operating beyond the pale of...
