“Well, there have been several allegations we have never found any evidence to prove that it has happened. FIFA has implemented some strategies which will hold even the host nation responsible. Once the mechanism is in place, it will help avoid such incidents.”

Kumar says football is the most played sport in the world and it is everybody’s duty to ensure fair play, as sports unites people.
