Ever since I first heard the chant "UEFA Mafia" at a football match, I had a feeling FIFA was just as corrupt. I was always more focused on local football issues, never wanting to delve into the mess of global football. However, this documentary blew my mind with the connections it revealed. It's unbelievable — like watching a mafia organization boldly defend itself on camera, claiming they did everything right. I can't shake the feeling that things aren't any better now. ()
