World Cup: a chaotic opener for a chaotic World Cup
Description
For all the rightful pessimism around the FIFA World Cup, the opener provided chaotic joy at a global sporting cathedral in Mexico. We cross to Mexico City to gauge the feverish delight of the co-hosts win. Amanda Shalala then takes us inside Gianni Infantino's bizarre press conference, before we check in on the Socceroos who have an injury scare ahead of the opening clash with Turkiye.
Featured: Amanda Shalala, journalist, ABC Sport. Dave Weiner, Football 360.
