England will go to Russia World Cup unless FA told not to attendThe FA have sought to allay fears of a possible World Cup boycottEngland's football team will still go to the World Cup in Russia this summer, unless the Football Association are told directly by Government that they are not to attend, Sky Sports News understands. The FA is adamant that international relations with Russia are none of its business, and will leave those political considerations to Government. There have been increased calls for England to boycott the World Cup for fear the team would be putting themselves in harm's way were they to attend. The FA is understood to be confident in its World Cup security arrangements and that of Fifa. Security details already in place include the provision of bottled water by Fifa through its sponsors.
