The first step is the federation and well see what the answer will be, and then we can elaborate on that. Radio Free Asia reported last month that DPRKs officials summoned the national team to a closed-door meeting in the capital Pyongyang to criticize it for its losses to Brazil, Portugal and Ivory Coast at the World Cup in South Africa. The report said players were then ordered to reprimand coach Kim Jong Hun. The report cited unidentified sources in DPRK and a Chinese businessman described as knowledgeable about DPRKs affairs. South Koreas main spy agency couldnt confirm the report, and there was no mention of any such meeting in DPRKs state media. Asian Football Confederation chief Mohammad bin Hammam told reporters on Wednesday that he spoke with four players in DPRK last month and they didnt report any mistreatment. There was an unconfirmed report that these players have gone through torture or something like that, but I cant confirm that, bin Hammam said. I havent seen anything with my eyes or heard anything with my ears. Maybe this FIFA investigation can clear the air. In other news Wednesday, Blatter reiterated that the International Football Association Board plans to discuss the use of goal-line video technology at the IFABs next meeting in October in Cardiff, Wales. At least four companies are preparing to present proposals, Blatter said. At this meeting, all these people can present their different items, Blatter said. If you have an accurate and simple system, we will implement it. Goal-line technology has become a top priority after officiating errors helped eliminate England and Mexico from the World Cup.
