Did South Africa pay a $10m bribe to host the World Cup in 2010?

FIFA has launched a legal battle to claim more than £100 million from corrupt officials and admitted for the first time that South Africa paid bribes for votes for the 2010 World Cup. In a legal submission to US authorities, they have openly accused South Africa of paying a US$10 million bribe to secure votes for the 2010 World Cup. South Africa has however strongly denied any wrong doing.
