Wait, I don't understand... why don't they just bribe FIFA directly like everyone else?

It's the belt and suspenders philosophy of bribery.

They’ll win the next WC, FIFA is pretty much bigger scale WWE, everything is staged for economic gain.

Look at Copa America, there’s probably 90% chance the host country wins so they can keep the stadiums packed and sell more crap unless there is a large country nearby (small % of fans willing to travel is still large due to a large population), then those countries win.
