United trio for centennial World Cup

First it was Uruguay and Argentina, where their main stars and colleagues from Barcelona (Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi) photographed together with shirts 20 and 30, and now Argentina neighbors Paraguay wants to join in. This CONMEBOL trio have announced their joint bid in October 2017, and last Monday officials from these three countries have met again to discuss candidature for the World Cup 12 years from now. Not much is known for this bidding, but if this plan indeed succeeds, the best 48 teams will be dispersed in 8 Argentine cities plus two towns each at Uruguay and Paraguay. However, the 2030 event coincides with one anniversary: a 100 years from the first World Cup in Uruguay. There are also rumors that Chile and England alone wants to be hosts, but nevertheless the football spectacle has to come back home where it all began - in South America.
This news was for the future, and now back to the present: final tickets for 2018 edition are into sale as from today. From 10.00 CET and through the world football organization website can be bought remaining 'golden papers' just for the group stage duels, because matches from knockout rounds onwards are already gone.
