World Cup Exposed: Corruption, Cash, and Red Cards

The beautiful game is getting ugly. In this episode of Afternoons with Zweli, we pull back the curtain on the massive controversies and corruption allegations currently plaguing the World Cup. Joined by sports expert Worship Freemantle, Zweli dives straight into the chaos from the shocking red card drama involving the USA to the heavy allegations of corruption swirling around the Argentina camp. We break down the frustrating double standards on the pitch, looking at how football's biggest giants seem to write their own rules while smaller nations get left in the dust. Plus, we look at the insane financial side of the tournament, including David Beckham’s mind-blowing £19 million advertising payday, before previewing the massive upcoming clashes between Portugal vs. Spain and USA vs. Belgium.
