This Barca player Iniesta i hated the most for his last gasp goal against Chelsea during CL Semis which drew the match and Barca qualified for finals on away goals rule....after yesterday's performance i like him the most...now he is one of my favourite player.

I also watched that CL semi final. Actually it is not Iniesta's fault. It was mainly the Norway referee Tom Ovrebo who ruled out several penalty appeals by Chelsea in that match.
FIFA is yet another scheme like IPL on a much larger scale in a different sport controlled by... This world cup show is a prift making show business...
So in a business, you need investments and have risk. If there are different parties involved, each share these and the profits. Investments: Stadiums and infrastructure: The country pays to the tune of billions... FIFA: negligible if not zero. Players: Each country or club maintains them and trains them Fans: Various countries majority from the host nation! CUP and the prize money, publicity, (probably dev of fottball elsewhere) etc... FIFA to the tune few millions. Now, to the money incoming.. meant as part of profits Global TV rights: FIFA (deals in selling these rights puts Lalit Modi's to shame) Tickets: Country, no where near to what they invested Other infrastructure: Rails etc.. will be recouped over a period of time. Tourism for a month: Few millions, again no where near enough to re-coup their invested billions. Other intangibles: related publicity, pride, good feeling for few days... country benefits.. a fishy thing, very difficult to put a number, but unlikely to re-coup their money!!
So, all-in finally the tally stands, FIFA: few hundred millions profit.
Host nation: Left with white elephant stadiums... costing billions to build and maintain!!! and then the small recession, because now the job is done, people not needed.. lose jobs, social unrest.. Good luck SA! Enjoy the good feeling while it lasts.
