The beleaguered head of the soccer governing body FIFA has won a fifth term amidst a corruption scandal in his top ranks. Sepp Blatter was re-elected on Friday just days after the indictments of 14 people, including two FIFA vice presidents, on corruption charges. Michael van Praag, a former rival contender, criticized the vote.

Michael van Praag: “We did our very best. I spent a lot of time in the last couple of months to help achieving a change. Now, it proves that the majority of this congress don’t want a change. Now, that says a lot about the people who voted this way.”
