Omschrijving
The full story behind the FIFA's headline-grabbing corruption scandal.
Spellbinding. A gripping account of how the beautiful game got grotesquely ugly. Highly recommended
A gripping white-collar crime thriller that, in its scope and human drama, ranks with some of the best investigative business books of the past 30 years.
Red Card is the meeting of American investigative reporting and real-life cop show.
Gripping...Bensinger's impeccably sourced account serves as a sharp reminder of the gargantuan levels of largesse and excess during Fifa's bad, bad days - as well as a warning that not enough has been done to prevent them returning.
