The absence of under-fire FIFA President Sepp Blatter and Jerome Valcke from the FIFA Women's World Cup final will not affect the event, according to tournament organizers. FIFA president Sepp Blatter has insisted he has "nothing to fear" on a personal level as an investigation into corruption at FIFA which has seen 14 people indicted in the United States continues. However, Blatter -- who also said he would not be standing for re-election again -- has revealed he has no intention of travelling while the crisis continues as he fears being arrested to create a further crisis for world football's governing body.
