[ZURICH] Sepp Blatter told members of world football's governing body on Friday that they must help "fix Fifa right now" amidst allegations of corruption.

"Join us in putting Fifa back on the right track where the boats will stop rocking and go calmly into port," the Fifa president told the 65th Fifa congress in Zurich.

On Wednesday, seven high-ranking Fifa officials were arrested in Zurich in dawn raids by Swiss police acting at US request in the latest corruption scandal to rock the body.
