    Anyone surprised by this ?

    Remember when they took out the lights on football matches because of large bets ?

    And does there be much betting on GAA matches in South East Asia ?

    Will teams get compensated if officials fixed the match ,what will happen to players ?

    Some 425 match officials, club officials, players and criminals are suspected of being involved.
    ...

    The fixed Champions League tie in England took place in the "last three or four years";
    The identity of that match cannot be revealed due to "ongoing judicial proceedings";
    Other "corrupt" matches included World Cup and European Championship qualifiers and "several top football matches in European leagues";
    ...
    In total 380 suspicious matches were in Europe and a further 300 in Africa, Asia and south and central America.

    ...
    Europol believes a crime syndicate based in Singapore was liaising with criminal networks throughout Europe, adding that match-fixing has taken place in 15 countries and 50 people have so far been arrested.

    In total, 30 countries and close to 700 matches worldwide were examined.

    Many of the allegations involved matches in lower divisions around Europe.
