An editor needs to be fired.
FIFA sent the World Cup into uncharted territory Thursday, handing the 2018 edition to Russia and going to Qatar in 2022. FIFA is going to Qatar. I suppose that's metonymy.
Often derided as a conservative organization, the decisions were a big gamble for FIFA, The decisions are derided as a conservative organization?
Well, okay, most of the report is just clunky. Maybe the editor didn't read to the end:No stadium would be more than an hour apart, while many would be dismantled and sections would be sent to poor nations. I was confused, midway through the sentence, as to how a stadium could be more than an hour apart; fortunately the end of the sentence provides some guidance on that.
