GOA, India -- Asian soccer leaders rebelled against FIFA on Tuesday, calling off their extraordinary congress and postponing the election of three representatives to the new FIFA Council.The Asian Football Confederation said the congress lasted only 27 minutes after member countries voted 42-1 against the agenda. The decision comes two days after FIFA barred a Qatari candidate from running for a spot on the council.The congress in Goa had been called to elect three officials to join existing AFC members from Japan, Kuwait and Malaysia, as well as President Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa of Bahrain, on the 37-member FIFA Council.The congress has spoken with one voice and that has been clear for us all to see, Sheikh Salman said. FIFA President Gianni Infantino, I am not sure if you have been at a shorter congress but I think you can see the strength of opinion in the room.Only Singapore voted in favor of the agenda. The countrys candidate, Zainudin Nordin, was set to benefit from his Qatari opponent being excluded.The increase of the FIFA Council to 37 members, chaired by Infantino, was a key part of reforms at the scandal-hit world body and was approved on the same day in February that the former UEFA secretary general beat Sheikh Salman for the presidency.Today the AFC and Asian football has shown solidarity, Sheikh Salman said. The message has been clear to everyone both inside and outside Asia.The AFC later held an emergency executive committee meeting, where Chinese candidate Zhang Jian was added to the committee until the next extraordinary congress. Dates and a venue for the rescheduled election will have to be ratified by FIFA.FIFA ethics judge Hans-Joachim Eckert earlier this month opened a case against Qatar Football Association vice president Saoud Al-Mohannadi, who was one of four men seeking one of the new seats from Asia on world soccers ruling council.FIFA prosecutors asked Eckert to ban Al-Mohannadi for no less than two years and six months for not telling the truth and not cooperating properly with an ethics investigation. But Al-Mohannadi said at the time he was confident of a fair review and that he had cooperated candidly. The case does not involve Qatars 2022 World Cup bid, but no further details were provided by the FIFA ethics committee.FIFA announced Sunday it had barred Al-Mohannadi from running in the election based on an ethics committee report, leaving Zhang, the Chinese soccer association secretary general, running against Ali Kafashian of Iran and Nordin of Singapore for two of the three FIFA Council seats from Asia.The third seat from Asia has been reserved for female candidates, with Moya Dodd of Australia running against Han Un Gyong of North Korea and Mafuza Akhter of Bangladesh.The AFC president, who ran for the top job in soccer against Infantino in the wake of the scandals that rocked FIFA last year, said stalling the election wasnt designed to delay any reform agenda.There is no argument between us and FIFA, Sheikh Salman said. I think we will be the first supporters of the FIFAs reforms ... but we need to be fair and just as well.It is unclear what the effect of Tuesdays turmoil will have on an Oct. 13-14 meeting of the FIFA Council in Zurich with Asia now below its quota of delegates.The session was set to look in detail at the 2026 World Cup, with the United States and Canada among potential hosts. Infantino made an election campaign promise to add eight teams to create a 40-team tournament.The issue of when Asia could next host a World Cup is also up for debate with China eager to bid as soon as possible. A current FIFA rule that bars confederations from back-to-back hosting means China can next be a candidate for 2030.However, FIFA could also propose a two-tournament gap for confederations -- knocking European bidders out of the 2026 contest but also pushing back Chinas ambitions to at least 2034.

SAN DIEGO -- Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin was reprimanded during Mondays practice -- thats a positive.I kind of had a couple tempo violations where I was going faster than the other guys and they told me to slow down, Benjamin said. I was just feeling happy, and knowing that I could pick it up and run faster.Benjamin was eager to display his speed in the teams first workout after its bye. In a light session on a damp field, Benjamin was raring to show that his ailing knee is fine.It felt good to be back out there, said Benjamin, who has missed two games. Well see how it goes this week.Benjamin was among the Chargers returning to practice after being injured leading up last weeks bye. Also working and looking as if theyll play on Sunday at Houston were strong safety Jahleel Addae (clavicle) and inside linebacker Denzel Perryman (hamstring).Its great to get Denzel back on the field, coach Mike McCoy said. We all know what type of player he is, with his knowledge of the system and the play-making ability that he has. So anytime you can get any player back it is always a bonus for our team.Especially if Perryman, the teams top run-stopper, can stay fit for the next six games. In four of those contests, the opposition averages at least 4 yards per carry. Perryman hasnt played since Oct. 30.Addae, another physical player, could deliver some brawn to a run defense which is ranked in the top 10. Although its a unit which will no longer feature nose tackle Brandon Mebanne, who suffered a season-ending biceps injury in the loss to Miami on Nov.dddddddddddd13.The way (Addae) plays the game, his passion, it doesnt matter if its during practice today or Sunday at kickoff, McCoy said. You love everything about him. It was great to see him out there at practice today.Dwight Lowery, the Chargers free safety signed in the offseason, agreed.He has the most experience out of everybody in the room, Lowery said. So to bring his energy, passion, physicality, passion and also his knowledge of the defense is going to help us tremendously I believe. It will be a lift to have him out there.Two key players didnt return. Cornerback Brandon Flowers (concussion) and inside linebacker Jatavis Brown (knee) were unable to go.It appears the last-place Chargers (4-6) wont be going to the playoffs for the sixth time in seven seasons. But quarterback Philip Rivers gathered his teammates after practice and stressed for them to keep fighting.Phil told us that everyone wishes we could go back in time and change one little thing we did in the losses that we had, rookie defensive end Joey Bosa said. But obviously we cant do that. Looking forward we have six games left and that is really all we can handle. That is what we are focused on. Our goal is to go 6-0.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Stitched Jerseys China Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Womens Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Outlet Wholesale Throwback Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys 2019 Jerseys Wholesale Discount NFL Jerseys Stitched NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Throwback Cheap NFL Gear Cheap NFL Jerseys Throwback Wholesale Jerseys 2018 Wholesale NFL White Jerseys ' ' '
