"Where was his opinion on human rights"?
Not hard to find...
""Homosexuality is illegal here. Women's rights and freedom of expression are in the spotlight. Also the decision six years ago to switch the World Cup from summer to winter.
"Against that backdrop there is a tournament to be played, one that will be watched and enjoyed around the world.
"Stick to football, say FIFA, well we will, for a couple of minutes, at least."
Ahead of the tournament the former England striker vowed to highlight the issues in the coverage of the tournament, something which he did in his opening monologue."
He could have stayed away... Said nothing, and the human rights issues would have gone unchallenged.
He chose to go and, despite instructions otherwise, speak out.
That answer your rather ridiculous question?
