FIFA, football and the new world religion

I hadn't seen John Oliver before I came across this video - b@#$& brilliant - it's worth it if you can set aside 15 mins. A satirical and insightful look into FIFA, football and this new(ish) world religion. Did you know it compelled Brazil to backtrack on alcohol bans at football matches, to let a certain beer brand into the stands? And South Africa had special 'World Cup courts' in 2010. And yet he, like me, remains conflicted over watching the blessed game. Enjoy.
