The head of security for FIFA calls on players and officials involved in match fixing to step forward with the truth.
Chris Eaton, winding up a trip to Zimbabwe where the sport has been mired in corruption allegations, says football has become ''the victim of its own popularity'' and was under attack by massive gambling syndicates worldwide.
He says bans from all forms of the game for life or several years will match the nature of each offense but ''it may be of great assistance'' in the sentencing of those who confess.
Zimbabwean players have admitted they were paid to lose games in Asia in 2009 where they lost 2-0 to Jordan, 3-0 to Thailand and 6-0 to Syria.
