TOKYO - Moscow's Luzhniki stadium will stage both
the opening match and the final at the 2018 World Cup, FIFA said in a
statement on Friday.
The Luzhniki will also
stage a semifinal while St Petersburg will stage the other following
approval by FIFA's executive committee at a meeting on Friday.
FIFA also approved Moscow, St Petersburg, Kazan and Sochi as venues for the 2017 Confederations Cup, also to be held in Russia.
In a separate decision, Kosovo, which is not a FIFA member, was given
permission to play friendly matches at "youth, amateur, women's and club
football" level. — Reuters
