Gianni Infantino is facing a crisis of his own making. He has been met with negative reaction to his plan, both within and outside of FIFA. Despite this, Infantino appears to be maintaining a defiant stance.

In most fields, he would have stepped down by now, but the world of football operates differently. Further details on the situation are available from KVIA ABC-7 and CNN analysis by Aleks Klosok. Infantino recently issued an apology and promised not to let the situation happen again, but it remains to be seen how effective this will be in addressing the crisis.
