FIFA’s new Pope!!!

Seldom I have followed every football match leave alone penning down my thoughts!!! But, then this wasn’t an ordinary event. They all claim this to be a Historic event. 

A man we were often used to seeing on big screens since 1998 more often than any other player was Sepp Blatter who after lot of controversies stepped down last year and later was suspended from Football for 6years. 

Men from round the Globe who stood for Presidency post went through rigorous selection process. 

It was for first time since 1974, the voting went second round where an Italian named Gianni Infantino came out with winning smile! 

Now, the most powerful man in world football in his acceptance speech said and I quote "I will work tirelessly to bring football back to Fifa and Fifa back to football!" 

Through transparency, good governance, eradicating corruption?? Time will tell!!! 

Good luck President
