FIFA should if possible increase the size of the World Cup in Qatar in 2022 to 48 from 32 teams, the global governing body's president Gianni Infantino said.
Last month, Infantino said a majority of national football federations were in favour of expanding the tournament and a decision was expected ahead of the qualifying draw in March. Infantino, speaking on Wednesday, also said FIFA was seeing whether it would be possible for some of Qatar's Gulf neighbours to host some of the matches.
He said last month that it would be "difficult" to stage an expanded tournament in Qatar alone.
"If you think it's a good thing to have 48 teams in the World Cup, why not try four years before, that's why we are analysing whether its possible to have 48 teams already in 2022," Infantino said on Wednesday. "The World Cup will take place in Qatar with 32 teams. Obviously, if we can increase it to 48 teams and make the world happy we should try it." - Reuters
Murray outgunned by Medvedev Russia's Daniil Medvedev showed Andy Murray just how much work he still has to do, when he beat the former world number one in straight sets in the Brisbane International on Wednesday.
Murray is making a comeback to the sport after a disastrous 2018, during which he played just six tournaments and was out of the game for 11 months with a hip injury.
He had a comfortable first round win over James Duckworth but found the step up in dass too much against Medvedev, the 22-year-old Russian cruising to a 7-5,6-2 win in just 80 minutes.
"In the second set I made a few too many mistakes, and there was a period in the match from 5-5 where I lost six games in a row," Murray said.
"And I think when you obviously play better players, I mean he's 15 in the world or so, they will expose any errors that you make in your game or any shots that you're not hitting particularly well.
"And he did that tonight."
Medvedev will meet Canada's Milos Raonic in the quarter-finals.
The huge-serving Raonic fired down 21 aces in his 6-3,7-6 (7/2) win over Serbian qualifier Miomir Kecmanovic to go with the 18 he served in the first round. - Afp
