On the subject of possible bribery
Do anyone remeber the Seoul Olympics - especially the boxing tournament. It took 10 years before it was finally proven that several ringside judges had been bribed to hand victories (and gold medals) to boxers from South Korea. I wonder whether we will hear similar stories about WC 2002 in 2012

Rather than overwhelm you people with text by copying and pasting, I thought I would give out some links from today's newspaper from my country.

It appears The Straits Times has forgotten that most of the players of Portugal, Italy and Spain (and the other European Countries for that matter) have been playing something like 70+ matches of Club football (league, cup and UEFA Cup/Champs league matches) whereas the Koreans probably had a much cushier season.
