29:03Now PlayingSimon Kuper is one of the few sports journalists who has attended every FIFA World Cup since 1990. He traced those tournaments in his new book, “World Cup Fever: A Soccer Journey in Nine Tournaments,” and recently released a new edition of “Soccernomics,” which he co-authored, for this year’s tournament. In this episode of Settle In, Kuper joins Geoff Bennett to talk about the World Cup so far, the politics of FIFA and where soccer goes from here.
