We think it\u2019s time to start.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drugs in soccer do have a long tradition. Even the German World Champions in 1954 most likely doped with the stimulant pervitin. Regarding younger history the scandals of Juventus Turin and the drug-doctor Eufemiano Fuentes from Madrid made the news.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>As prevalent as in track and field?<\/strong><br \/>Doping in soccer is not an isolated incident. The Anti-Doping-Database has a list with 177 cases worldwide, probably there are a lot more. The former drug-dealer Stefan Matschiner believes that drugs in soccer are as prevalent as in track and field or triathlon. Matschiner himself provided different players with drugs.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;It&#8217;s easier to find a confessing mafioso than a confessing soccer professional&#8221; \u2013 prosecutor Raffaele Guariniello<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Only some players attract negative attention. Why? The Turin-based prosecutor Raffaele Guariniello says: \u201eIt&#8217;s easier to find a confessing Mafioso than a confessing soccer professional.&#8221; Furthermore doping tests in soccer have been a complete joke for years. Today they are far better, but they still have gaps. Painkillers are common in soccer, for instance in amateur soccer, where players use stimulants, too. In professional soccer all substances make sense which are used in track and field or other sports.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to help translating?<\/strong><br \/>Until now we\u2019ve translated only an overview (<a href=\"http:\/\/fussballdoping.correctiv.org\/en\/most-important\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The most important stuff on drugs in soccer in a few sentences\">&#8220;Most Important&#8221;<\/a>) and the main report: <a href=\"http:\/\/fussballdoping.correctiv.org\/en\/2012\/12\/how-prevalent-are-drugs-in-soccer\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"How prevalent are drugs in soccer?
