"Red Card!" is a fascinating book on the disorder FIFA!
information of the author (Andrew Jennings, May 2006, edition: news of the city) are very well detailed and told, intersecting perfectly all the pieces. This book provides valuable insights into the functioning of football. How the World Cup is awarded, ticket sales, TV rights, money, widespread corruption from top to bottom. In short, an enormous work of Jenkins exciting to read. I recommend it to anyone interested in sport and especially for those who want to know behind the scenes of football without hiding his eyes.

Book a shock, totally explosive, which even before its release has provoked the wrath of FIFA and its president. Which have sought its closure. In vain so far ...
