Will Sepp Blatter, who has not yet resigned and is still the President of FIFA, attend the Final and Closing Ceremony of the 7th Women's World Football Cup in Vancouver on Sunday July 5, 2015 ?
Everyone knows that there are ongoing investigations into allegations of fraud by certain FIFA executives, but no accusations have been levelled against Blatter who is therefore "clean" !
Blatter has promoted Women's Football and has even changed the FIFA Statutes (see section 30) to permit the election of a Woman onto the FIFA Executive. Lydia Nsekera of Burundi was elected. Blatter's presence in Vancouver at the Final would mark a big step forward for Women's football !
It should be noted that there are now Professional players in the women's game of football. This year in Canada there has already been an attendance of more than 50 000 spectators at one match ! More publicity and televised games can be expected in the future !
