"As a lifelong fan of football, or soccer as it's known elsewhere, you often have to remember that the sport is a very quickly changing industry. From a result one week to a newspaper headline the next day. Within all this mayhem, it's easy to forget what has happened and what is most likely still going on in one way or another. FIFA Uncovered is a reminder of how disgusting and immoral these absolute pigs were/are. The absolute front of Blatter to sit there and be interviewed smiling during this documentary is shocking.

FIFA's governing structure is comprised of a President, a General Secretary, a Congress with representatives from each affiliated member association and an assortment of committees including that of Finance, Disciplinary, and Referees. The Congress meets every year to discuss the association's implementation, with each member association accorded one vote irrespective of its size or its footballing strength. FIFA also recognizes six confederations that oversee the sport across the world's different continents and regions. Interestingly, FIFA has more member states than the United Nations, as it also recognizes non-sovereign entities and politically disputed territories like Palestine. The association does not control the rules of football, but is in charge of enforcing sanctions, such as the suspension of players or teams if they interfere with the proper functioning of the sport.
