Football Corruption Match fixing scandals Caroline Elwood-Stokes

The criminal activities of football evolved almost entirely free until 2010. On the 2 December 2010, namely Russia and Qatar awarded FIFA World Cup respectively in 2018 and 2022, and it became clearer than ever that the culture of corruption in the football world had reached a boundless level. Corruption had become a part of the game and a sport press that until then had lived too close to these dark men in football, could no longer be blind to this obvious corruption. A stream of corruption scandals have been uncovered, and FIFA president Sepp Blatter went off as a result of corruption. But there are several scandals. Many more. We have hardly seen tip of the iceberg.
