That FIFA president Blatter was accused of corruption back in 1998 or 2002….
Sepp Blatter’s 1998 election to the presidency of FIFA over UEFA President Lennart Johansson occurred amidst much controversy. His 2002 candidacy has been marked with rumours of financial irregularities and backroom dealings, culminating with direct accusations of bribery, by a third party, made in the British press by the Farra Ado, vice-president of the CAF and president of the Somalian football association, who claimed to have been offered $100,000 to vote for Blatter in 1998.
Amidst internal divisions ,FIFA’s secretary-general Blatter’s deputy and former protégé, Michel Zen-Ruffinen drew up a 30-page dossier outlining allegations of financial mismanagement within the organisation. The dossier alleged that the collapse of FIFA’s marketing partner ISL had led to losses of up to $100m under Blatter’s management. The allegations were backed by Johansson, and the dossier was handed to the Swiss authorities, but they cleared him of any wrong doing and FIFA had to pay all the costs. An internal investigation within FIFA was halted by Blatter because members of it broke confidentiality agreements.
Could this include last year’s CL semi-final between Chelsea and Barcelona ?
And… becasue he is a "Knight of the French Legion of Honour" he didn’t do anything to replay a match between France
and Ireland…is he making football by his favorites?
Yeah! I think so because of the uncalled penalties.

Look at 2:37 in the link to the vid I posted. Eto’s handball was right infront of the ref. He wasn’t covering his face because threw his arm in the air, hardly covering his head. The ref himself saw it and said nothing.
