The decision to grow from 64 to 104 matches - rather than the 80 originally planned in 2026 - is due to come at a meeting of the governing body's ruling council in Kigali, Rwanda
This format will lead to a situation where some third-place teams will not know for days in some circumstances if they have qualified for the knockout phase.
A German win by one or two goals was needed for them and Austria to go through - and they played tepidly for a 1-0 victory. After scandals that toppled Sepp Blatter and threatened the future of FIFA, Mr Infantino was elected in 2016 to complete the rest of his disgraced predecessor's term at a special election.
So the former UEFA general secretary can seek another four-year term running world football from 2027 to 2031 - giving him 15 years in the job.
