    UEFA meets on Thursday in a bid to postpone FIFA presidential election

    UEFA added Friday's meeting of FIFA's members risked turning into “a farce” and said it could even boycott the gathering.

    European football's leaders are to meet on Thursday in a bid to postpone FIFA's presidential election. UEFA said Friday's vote should not go ahead after bribery and racketeering charges were laid against senior officials in football's governing body. “These events show, once again, that corruption is deeply rooted in FIFA's culture,” UEFA said.
