Blatter arrives in Zimbabwe The FIFA president is expected to speak to President Mugabe during a visit meant to tackle the numerous funding and corruption problems which plague the country's football association
State radio says FIFA President Sepp Blatter arrived in Zimbabwe on a private jet Monday at the start of a two-day visit to meet administrators of the southern African nation's controversy-mired game. It said Blatter is expected to call on President Robert Mugabe and watch a women's international match against Malawi later in the day. He will also inspect training facilities that urgently need funding in the troubled economy. An advance party of four FIFA officials arrived Sunday, including two match-fixing investigators. Last year, Zimbabwe captain Method Mwanjali and four team mates admitted taking money to lose matches on a 2009 tour to Thailand and Malaysia. Zimbabwe lost 3-0 to Thailand and 6-0 to Syria and the players said they were paid between $500 and $1,500
