Ordinarily, the game between Amkar Perm and Rostov this afternoon would be of little interest to most of the supporters in Russia. However, it turned into the most talked about game of the season. Premier League officials sent special commissioners to Perm, several fans wrote in forum they are waiting for the game “more than for the Champions League final”, and the whole country held its breath to see what happens.
Wonder why? It’s all down to the biggest disease of Russian football, namely match fixing. The game in question became such a hot topic of conversation in Russia because the teams were openly accused of fixing the result – Rostov were supposed to lose to Amkar on purpose. Optimists prayed for the visitors to play for their pride, pessimists waited for the inevitable to happen. The suspense was immense… Or was it? The drama finished in a most disappointing way possible – Amkar duly won 1-0 in a very dull match. It looked like the teams didn’t even bother to invent an interesting scenario to make their intentions more difficult to understand. Bulgarian midfielder Georgi Peev scored with a deflected free kick midway the first half, and that was it.
The sensational events ahead of the game are due to extraordinary actions taken by a small internet site, futbol-russia.ru, that came to prominence offering punters early information on fixed games. The site invites people to buy their Tips on the day of the game, then place huge stakes with legal bookmakers in Russia or abroad. Futbol-russia.ru’s manager, available for customer service through his ICQ account, claims never to be wrong. This week, in order to prove his worth, he published his tips in a forum, free of charge for all to see. The information was extremely decisive – Volga bought their away game from SKA-Energiya Khabarovsk in the second division, while Rostov are about to lose to Amkar in the Premier League.
