Soccer: FIFA investigating Nig/Arg match

Ced's shadow · 06-19-11, 03:56 AM

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.

Take El Salvador ML tonight. El Salvador playing in RFK in DC is like them playing in San Salvador.

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.
