        德国著名足球运动员弗朗茨 · 贝肯鲍尔被列为参与 2006 年德国世界杯贿选事件六名调查对象之一。在审查德国足球协会委托的一份报道后，世界性管理机构国际足联下属的道德委员会决定采取相关措施。请听 Richard Conway 的报道。
        The investigation centres on allegations that Germany made undue payments and contracts to secure votes when bidding successfully to host the 2006 World Cup.
        Last year, the German publication Der Spiegel claimed Germany's World Cup committee had established a slush fund of £4.8m to buy votes and secure the rights to stage the tournament.
        Mr Beckenbauer and other officials have denied the allegations.
