Saudi Arabia actually created the confederation cup formerly known as King fahd cup, FIFA who were intially against the idea just took it over
@BoqPrecision 5 жыл бұрын
Thanks to the works of the late Prince Feisal ibn Fahad ibn al-Saud He was responsible for the initial investment in football and was the reason Saudi Arabia dominated football in the region back in the 90s. The first 2 renditions were called the King Fahd cup.

Amazing that one of the only media outlets that takes on the Gulf Monarchies (and did before Khashoggi) in a real way is a football youtube channel. Not too surprising though considering the pervasiveness of KSA and UAE money that flows through nearly every major media company and think tank. Well done as always Tifo, and I'm looking forward to learning about basketball, too.
