FIFA, the Church of Football - English Listening Exercise

FIFA, the Church of Football - English Listening Exercise Ok, we know that everyone is focused on the World Cup now, so we thought we should give you an English listening exercise about it. In this video comedian and football fan John Oliver makes some very funny, but very critical points about FIFA and the World Cup. The video is fairly long, so we made the listening exercise for the first 2 minutes, and the last minute. If you have time, watch the whole thing its quite interesting. If not, you can skip to the parts we used for the exercise.Ok, we know that everyone is focused on the World Cup now, so we thought we should give you an English listening exercise about it.
