FIFA President Sepp Blatter took to space as the Russia 2018 World Cup logo was unveiled over video feed.
The logo displays the World Cup trophy in the red and blue colors of the Russian flag, representing heart and spirit.
Does it look like heart and spirit, or aliens and razor blades?
The 2014 Brasil logo got a lot of negative comments for the ‘facepalm’ image it gave, and 2018 isn’t getting by with a fair share of personal feelings on Twitter:
Why is the World Cup wearing a gas mask in the Russia 2018 logo? Are FIFA expecting attacks?
