BOOK SYNOPSIS

When the tiny desert state of Qatar won the rights to host the 2022 World Cup, the news was greeted with shock and disbelief. Soon, allegations were flying that the tournament had been secured by foul means. And when Heidi Blake and Jonathan Calvert received a huge cache of documents from a whistleblower, they were able to pierce together a devastating picture of what had happened. The astonishing story of the plot by Mohammad bin Hammam, Qatar's most senior football official, to buy the World Cup, scandalised football fans from around the globe. The fallout continues to reverberate, reaching all the way up to Sepp Blatter. Now, in this updated edition, we see the sickness at the heart of FIFA's affairs that has tainted so many.
