Suspended UEFA President Michel Platini spent eight hours in an appeal case at FIFA headquarters on Monday, fighting his eight-year ban over a $2 million payment approved by Sepp Blatter.
Platini arrived relaxed for his fixture with the FIFA appeal committee by strolling from his nearby hotel into the main entrance.
After a long day with the lawyers in a “very good hearing,” the former FIFA presidential hopeful seemed at ease, emerging from his car into icy rain to conduct an impromptu news conference.
