Its true, though not so much a [roblem in Europe more in South america and Africa -nine players were excluded from the African Under-17 Championship in Morocco after MRI wrist scans showed them to be over the age limit. Congo-Brazzaville, Ivory Coast and Nigeria each had three players banned. The Under-17 World Cups in 2003, 2005 and 2007 revealed 35% of players were over age. the introduction of MRI scans now reveals players true age, so its becoming more difficult to cheat.
