    Soccer: FIFA investigating Nig/Arg match

    Strange betting patterns.

    Are you serious? Anyone who saw the Argentina lineup would be insane to bet Arg there as a favorite. Third-string lineup, Nigeria trying to get a win at home.

    Really should be obvious. Not sure the Argy players even had to try to fix it.

    Not sure there's anything here.

    I heard today in the news they're also investigating some Gold Cup matches, apparently there's rumors that betting houses based out in Singapore cashed out big with certain results, don't remember 2 of them but one was Costa Rica - Cuba, which I hardly doubt of, if I read/hear something else, I will for sure post it out.

    Old news.

    A lot of money came in on Over 4.5 goals a few minutes before regulation time. The ref then added 5 minutes of overtime and gave Argentina a controversial penalty in the 98th (!) minute. Guess who they're investigating...

    FIFA is dumb. If they just pull up the tape from when this 3rd rate Argentine team played Poland they could see there's no match fixing here.

    Teams who fix games are usually poor nations or players who get paid shit by their managements. Refs are usually the main culprits since they control the game obviously.

    Not necesarily, greed by far exceeds the player's status, is really hard to see a poor football player nowadays anyways. What I do agree to do, is the referees part, most of rigged games come that way.
