    Match-Fixing Rumor At The World Cup Involves Major Qatar Bribing Allegations
    Three days before the start of the 2022 FIFA World Cup, major reports and rumors alleging the host country of Qatar bribing its opponent are making the rounds. The build-up to soccer’s biggest event being hosted in a country with a deplorable human rights record has been less than stellar.

    This year’s World Cup is the definition of sports washing and these recent rumors of match-fixing only add a layer to FIFA’s corrupt event.

    According to Amjad Taha, the regional director of the British Middle East Center for Studies and Research with over 430,000 followers on Twitter, Qatar has bribed opposing players. According to Taha and other insiders, Qatar bribed eight Ecuadorian players $7.4 million to lose the opening game of the tournament.

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Exclusive: Qatar bribed eight Ecuadorian players $7.4 million to lose the opener(1-0 ⚽️ 2nd half). Five Qatari and <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Ecadour?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw ">#Ecadour</a> insiders confirmed this.We hope it's false. We hope sharing this will affect the outcome.The world should oppose FIFA corruption.<a href="https://twitter.com/MailSport?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MailSpor t</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WorldCup2022?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc% 5Etfw">#WorldCup2022</a></p>&mdash; Amjad Taha أمجد طه (@amjadt25) <a href="https://twitter.com/amjadt25/status/1593271354803032064?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" >November 17, 2022</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
    Phrasing is important here as Taha writes ‘Qatar bribed’ as opposed to ‘Qatar attempted to bribe’ the Ecuadorians. Taha also claims that the bribe involves Qatar winning the match 1-0 with the lone goal coming in the second half.

    At the time of this writing, no other journalist or media member has confirmed Taha’s exclusive report.

    Front Office Sports, however, has reported FIFA is aware and concerned about match-fixing as it expects over $100 billion in bets to come in throughout the tournament.

    Reports and rumors just days ahead of the start of the 2022 World Cup allege Qatar is bribing players for Ecuador.

        Do you trust Amjad Taha? I don't. He can be a plant by the books.

        But if you trust him a safer bet in 1H draw or 1H under 0.5.

          Why are Qatar so high priced at 2/1 odds to beat a Ecuador team that usually do good at home usually.

                    Nothing but trying to make Qatar look bad because they don't bow down to queers like the US and Europe. Remember all the reports about chaos inside Russia prior to the Sochi Olympics and yet they went off without a hitch? Same thing here. Gun to head, I'd take Ecuador because they might be underbet.

                      Also, sadly, we won’t be seeing Shakira shaking her ass on stage.

                                                  Cameroon fixed croatia in world cup. I mean small fry got paid, dunno big bets.
                                                  The whistle-blower involved denied making the claims that the country&#8217;s World Cup defeat to Croatia was rigged &#8211; while Der Spiegel, who broke the story, stands by its report


                                                  this one is interesting because its more for pride of the country, rather than making money.

                                                    Wilson Raj Perumal, a convicted match-fixer, reportedly told a Der Spiegel journalist during a Facebook conversation that the game would finish 4-0 to Croatia and that the African side would have a player sent-off – both of which were correct.

                                                          Just a heads up if anyone sees a story about Qatar bribing Ecuador 7.4 million to lose the opening game - it started here from a well-known disinformation account who is somehow also the main source in the story @amjadt25
                                                          . It's already got thousands of RTs though

                                                            Although Marc Owen Jones later refuted Taha’s report. Jones teaches as an adjunct at Qatar’s Haman Bin Khalifa University. He asserts that Taha is an unreliable source who knowingly disseminates false information.

                                                            Up till now, no one has verified Taha’s allegations. However, Front Office Sports claims that FIFA is becoming more concerned about match-fixing and anticipates over $100 billion in wagers (bets) on the competition.
