VICE Sports World News Roundup: November 10

Good morning, America. Welcome to the VICE Sports World News Roundup. Be sure to stop by daily for your morning headlines.

It's the 10th of November, 2015, and Sepp Blatter is still, technically, president of FIFA.

The scandal surrounding the German football association took another couple turns yesterday. First, German soccer federation (DFB) president Wolfgang Niersbach resigned. Niersbach had been unable to adequately explain why the DFB had paid FIFA 6.7 million dollars through a back channel. Niersbach had denied knowing anything about it until this summer, but a 2007 tax document with his signature surfaced showing he'd tried to write off the payment as a tax deduction. Ops!

This morning, BILD has a report about a new "scandal document." The document is dated just four days before the 2000 vote that awarded Germany the World Cup. In it, disgraced former FIFA vice President and CONCACAF president Jack Warner reportedly pledges CONCACAF's support of the German 2006 World Cup bid. One of the signatures on the document belongs to Franz Beckenbauer, head of the bid committee. Warner apparently never followed through on the agreement, but it shows an attempt by the DFB to secure votes before the election.

Gianni Infantino, one of several candidates running for FIFA president, gave an interview to the AP in which he says he wants to expand the World Cup to 40 teams. Hopefully he's joking.

WADA released the findings of its investigation into the systemic doping of Russian athletes, which first surfaced last year in a bombshell documentary from German broadcaster ARD. WADA's report basically confirmed everything in the documentary and, among many other things, suggested the Russian Federation be banned from competition.

U.S. Soccer has resolved a lawsuit regarding head injuries and concussions among youth players. The resolution came with some rule changes: heading soccer balls is now forbidden for children under 10 and restricted in practice for older children.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic won the Guldbollen, the award for Sweden's best player. This is Zlatan's 10th Goldbollen. In the photo, he's standing with Luis Figo, who is not Swedish and has never won a Goldbollen.
