It is partly FIFA's fault though. It's why it's only used in Brazil

How can you blame FIFA for the world ignoring it? Sure, blame FIFA for it not being used in South Africa, Germany or Japan/South Korea, but how on earth can you blame them for 14 years of Champions League, Premier League, La Liga etc not using it? And how can you blame FIFA for the European Championships, Africa Cup of Nations etc not using it?

It is not FIFA's fault in any way, bar the lack of use at 2010, 2006 and 2002.

And FWIW, it's also used in Argentina.

Thought Messi was good in South Africa personally, was a part of everything goal the Argies did, managed many assists too.

He was their best player. This whole "he's only scored once in a world cup!!!!!!" stat is ridiculously misleading as it ignores how young he was in 2006 and the fact he was Argentina's best player and rather unlucky not to score in 2010.

It's not only used in Brazil either.

It is also used in CONMEBOL competitions.

Boooo, wanted to check out Salihovic's FK's live in action

I have just read something that says Dzeko is the only Bosnian player who grew up in Bosnia ? Can that be true

In the first 11 no? But all te rest all fled during the war and grew up elsewhere. Begovic spent 6 years in Germany and then grew up in Canada according to the BBC clip.
