Sepp Blatter has been re-elected as the president FIFA. The 79-year-old beat his only rival, Prince Ali bin al-Hussein Jordan, a vote Friday. Mr Blatter now has another four years as the boss football's governing body. In his victory speech, Blatter said: "I am the president now. The president everybody." He was re-elected even though a major corruption scandal emerged Wednesday. Seven top FIFA officials were arrested. Mr Blatter was not one them but many people in football want him to resign. They say there have been too many scandals FIFA since he became president 1998. The UK Prime Minister David Cameron said Blatter should quit and "the sooner the better".

Mr Blatter said he took responsibility all that is wrong with FIFA and that he would bring change. He said he would work to put FIFA a "strong position". However, the boss England's Football Association Greg Dyke said: "I cannot see FIFA reforming itself Blatter. He's had 16 years to reform it and he hasn't done it." In those 16 years, Blatter took the World Cup South Africa and put a lot money into building the game Asia and Africa. However, the name FIFA is now frequently linked scandal. FIFA's major sponsors Visa and Coca Cola are asking big questions. There are also many concerns why FIFA is doing so little about the 1,200 workers who have so far died to build the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
