(1) Football’s world governing body FIFA has elected a new president after its forrner leader, Sepp Blatter, was forced to step down last year after being charged with corruption. New president Gianni Infantino faces a huge task in trying to clean up the body.
    Infantino won with a majority in the second round of voting-gaining 115 votes from the representatives of 209 nations. (2) He promised to rebuild the scandal-hit organization. The Swiss-Italian lawyer was secretary-general of European football’s governing body, UEFA. His former boss at UEFA, Michel Platini, was involved in a $ 2 million corruption scandal that also affected the former president of FIFA, Sepp Blatter. Both Platini and Blatter have been banned from football for six years.
    Hours before the election, FIFA passed a set of reforms aimed at cleaning up its image. It will have an elected council to replace the Executive Committee—with more female members to boost women’s football.
