England's dream of hosting the 2018 World Cup has been brought crashing down after Russia won the vote in Zurich on Thursday afternoon. Fifa's 22 executive committee members decided that Russia deserved the honour, leaving the rival bids of England, Spain/Portugal and Holland/Belgium in tatters. Hopes were high that the slick final presentation by England's 2018 team, which included David Beckham, Prince William and Prime Minister David Cameron would be enough to win over Fifa's ExCo. Yet despite their efforts being immediately applauded by Fifa president Sepp Blatter as 'excellent and remarkable', England were unable to secure the share of the votes required to land the tournament for the first time in 52 years http://img.skysports.com/10/12/218x298/WorldCup_2536789.jpgWorld Cup: More woe for England
