The emblem for the tournament in Russia was unveiled to the world via astronauts at the International Space Station as Sepp Blatter attended the launch in Moscow The official emblem for the 2018 World Cup in Russia has been unveiled in a ceremony on Tuesday.
Fifa president Sepp Blatter was joined by 2006 World Cup-winning captain Fabio Cannavaro and Chairman of the Local Organising Committee Vitaly Mutko in a specially-arranged live event in Moscow to mark the first official milestone on the road to the tournament.



Russian TV presenter Ivan Urgant hosted a special version of his late-night show, with his band wearing the official jerseys of the eight World Cup-winning nations as his studio was converted to look like a stadium.
The emblem itself was unveiled by three astronauts in the International Space Station, who held up a copy of the logo to the camera as a projection was beamed at the iconic Bolshoi theatre in Moscow.
“The launch of the Emblem is a wonderful event to kick things off and I’m certain that the World Cup will be a success here in four years,” Blatter said during the unveiling.
