FIFA tests credibility on what is acceptable
Play
FIFA has described the level of racism in Russian football as "completely unacceptable". Even though it may be true, this is a moral own goal.
A justifiable Russian counter-attack would be to accuse FIFA of supporting a “completely unacceptable” level of corruption within its top management.
Tactically, one would help the other, so who should be red-carded first in order to make football the winner?!
