The storm surrounding the South Korean Football Association, KFA, continues.

After South Korean police raided the federation on Thursday, the KFA was accused on Friday of paying for foreign referees' sexual services before and after international matches held in the country between March 2011 and March 2012. This is stated in an audit report that the country's government conducted in 2016, according to the South Korean news agency Yonhap.

On Saturday, the federation apologised and responded to the criticism, Yonhap reports.

KFA promises extensive reforms, increased transparency and that morale will be restored within the organization.
