FIFA vs. football

After corruption charges and cover-ups, what will it take to save the game?

World football’s elite may have met their match: The U.S. government. In a crackdown as dramatic as the sport, top FIFA executives have been arrested on corruption charges. U.S. prosecutors say they conspired to pocket some $150 million. Their alleged victims? FIFA itself, and the local football clubs it supports. Monday at 1930GMT, we ask what, and who, can clean up the game.

Would you stop watching football to force FIFA reform?
