February 27 – Global governing body FIFA has launched a new series of friendly matches, piloting the first edition of the ‘FIFA Series’ in March, in a bid to offer more “meaningful action” to smaller nations.
The idea for the series was first floated in December 2022 and on Monday – the day that marked the eighth anniversary of Infantino’s reign at FIFA – the global governing body announced that the first edition of the FIFA Series will take place from March 18 to March 26.
The post FIFA-funded series of friendly tournaments launched with 20 nations, across four host venues appeared first on Inside World Football.
