Pretty blatant - a public vote, but no matter what FIFA still get to select the top 3!
Laughable, because it only goes to confirm that FIFA is corrupt to the core, and that the 'right' result is entirely in their gift, and hence can be paid for - like everything else about this World Cup, it is quite plain to see that FIFA's decisions (even those pertaining to the rules and refereeing guidelines) are all about making money an very little to do with football.
It's a shame, but it was high time that (international) football was relegated compared to sports where sportsmanship, rather than gamesmanship, is considered the norm.
FIFA is becoming just like the monster that is FIA...
