On Wednesday FIFA announced they were seeking "tens of millions of dollars" in restitution from the named co-conspirators indicted as part of the the Department of Justice investigation into FIFA, CONMEBOL and CONCACAF. We asked ESPN FC's Gab Marcotti to tell how exactly FIFA can get money back from itself and its member confederations.
Q: FIFA embezzles money from football and now they want to get it back? How does that work?
A: Easy there. I know we all talk about FIFA corruption. But FIFA is an organization and those crimes were committed by individuals.
