Allegations that FIFA is a corrupt body have been often made and disregarded . No wonder yet another FIFA women's tournament is being held in Trinidad & Tobago..... Those making the accusations have often been regarded with derision and outright mockery. The fact is the rumours continue to circulate. They include the order's to Mexican referee Codesal in the 1990 final to make sure Germany won with a dubious penalty and the fiasco of the 2002 event where somehow South Korea managed to get past not just Italy but Spain with a host of contentious decisions. The referee in the match against Italy and a hate figure among Azzurri fans was Byron Moreno. With a chequered career as an official which makes Stuart Atwell look competent ,including adding on thirteen minutes of time to allow one Ecuadorian team to beat another he already had a shady past. Now it emerges in addition to helping eastern betting syndicates bet and win on the outcome and events within the game against Italy he has fallen on hard times. So much so he was caught with a sizeable package of heroin on his arrival in New York last week. http://www.livesoccertv.com/news/16...ee-byron-moreno-arrested-for-carrying-heroin/ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/22/byron-moreno-world-cup-re_n_734284.html A genuine sleazebag yet FIFA found no fault to have him officiate at the 2002 WC.
