  Other papers filed in the case say that it was the Morocco bid committee that bribed Mr. Blazer. He also said that “I and others on the FIFA executive committee agreed to accept bribes in conjunction with the selection of South Africa as the host nation for the 2010 World Cup,” and that he “and others agreed to accept bribes and kickbacks in conjunction with the broadcast and other rights” to several Gold Cups, a regional championship in which the United States competes.

  Here Are the FIFA Officials Indicted on Corruption Charges
  A look at the 14 people, including FIFA officials, who face racketeering, conspiracy and corruption charges in the United States.
  
  
  Facing up to 20 years in prison, Mr. Blazer became a cooperating witness, according to law enforcement officials, though in the redacted version of the plea hearing filed Wednesday, there were no references to Mr. Blazer’s cooperating with the government. However, law enforcement officials said that part of Mr. Blazer’s cooperation deal included secretly recording conversations.
  
  There are at least two other cooperating witnesses in the FIFA case that suggest the kind of agreement Mr. Blazer may have struck: Daryan and Daryll Warner. They are sons of Jack Warner, the former president of Concacaf, the soccer governing body overseeing North American, Central American and the Caribbean. Mr. Blazer, a friend of Mr. Warner’s, was Concacaf’s general secretary from 1990 until 2011.
  
  When each of the Warner sons pleaded guilty in 2013, the judge outlined their cooperation agreements with the government: They agreed to participate in undercover activities, hand over documents, regularly meet with prosecutors, testify when requested, and not divulge their cooperation to anyone without the express permission of prosecutors.
  
  In return, prosecutors said, they would file a letter at sentencing noting each defendant’s cooperation and asking for a departure from sentencing guidelines. Prosecutors often suggest little or no prison time in return for cooperation. For Daryan Warner, prosecutors also said they would suggest he receive an S-Visa, or an informant green card.

I beg what else will come out?

The Football Association of Ireland will vote against Sepp Blatter in Friday's Fifa presidential election, says chief executive John Delaney.

Blatter, 79, is favourite to win a fifth four-year term after saying in 2011 he would step down.

"Regardless of the good he claims to have done during his tenure, he has to recognise that Fifa has an incredibly bad brand image," Delaney told BBC Sport.

"We won't be voting for him."

England's and Scotland's Football Associations intend to support Prince Ali Bin Al-Hussein of Jordan - the only other candidate in the election in Zurich following the withdrawals of Luis Figo and Michael van Praag.

Delaney said the FAI will also back Prince Ali and that Blatter should step down for "the good of the game".
