FIFA’s Temarii: Mistake to talk about WCup deals
Posted Monday, October 18, 2010 by YAHOO Sport
ZURICH (AP)—FIFA executive committee member Reynald Temarii has acknowledged he made a mistake talking with undercover reporters about deals for his World Cup hosting vote.
Temarii tells The Associated Press that he met FIFA president Sepp Blatter on Sunday to ask him to launch an ethics investigation.
The Oceania Football Confederation president says FIFA’s independent ethics panel is scheduled to discuss his case on Wednesday.
Temarii says: “I’m confident about my integrity but I made a mistake by talking in that way.”
Blatter has promised an “in-depth investigation” into allegations by British newspaper Sunday Times that Temarii and Nigerian FIFA executive committee member Amos Adamu offered to sell their votes to fund projects.
