AFC to probe match-fixing allegations: AFC Cup 2008 - Home United vs Victory SC

KUALA LUMPUR: AFC will be launching an investigation into allegations that two players of Victory SC of Maldives were approached on Tuesday night to throw away their AFC Cup 2008 Match Day 3 game tonight against Home United of Singapore.

It has been reliably reported to AFC that two foreign players of Victory SC were approached by an unidentified man in their hotel room and offered bribes to throw away the match.

“We take these allegations very seriously and we will launch a full investigation to find out and establish the truth,” AFC President Mohamed Bin Hammam told www.the-afc.com.

“AFC is committed to rooting out corruption from the game and we will do everything possible to achieve this aim,” added the AFC chief.

“We will also alert FIFA to this incident and request the governing body of world football to join us in the investigation.”

Victory SC are at the bottom of Group D in the AFC Cup after drawing one match and losing another, while Home United lead the table with six points from two wins.


Price only 1.05, but handicap bets/halftime/fulltime bets should be valuable if they exist. Starts in approx 2 hours.

So many fixed games lately, yet no one tells me any before it happens.

This has not been played yet. Starts in a couple of hours. But as I say the price is so low, its pure "interest" I guess.

[ChuteBoxe]

Ohhh, just skimmed the article, missed the last part. Sorry dude. So who should I take? Home United right?

[diamond]

Yes right. If your able to place larger sums I guess. I mean matchfixing or not, this was a victory for Home united anyway. Do you have any books offering it?

[diamond]

Pinny offering 1.667 with handicap 2.75.

[ChuteBoxe]

I just checked bookmaker and thegreek, and I can't seem to find it.

[diamond]

If you use pinny, that that offer.

[ChuteBoxe]

As much as I'd love a pinny acct, I'm not allowed. I'm in the States.

[diamond]

Ah ok..just out of curiousity..why do the greek allow US clients and not Pinny?

No clue as to why Pinnacle banned US customers. BetCris did also, but you can use BookMaker which is owned by them anyways.

Maybe a fix the other way..1-1 at halftime, Victory taking the lead first.

there is no fix if it becomes public knowledge.
