The most powerful organization in sports is under fire: FIFA's credibility has already been dented by scandal and football's world governing body is now being trageted by the US Justice department and the FBI. According to the New York Times, US prosecutors will charge a number of current and former FIFA officials with corruption and accepting bribes. The arrest took place at this 5-star hotel in Zürich, where FIFA members had gathered ahead of an election on Friday. FIFA's president Sepp Blatter has not been formally charged by US officials, though he has been accused by others of turning a blind eye to years of corruption. More information with Clovis Casali.
