Celta Vigo vs Cordoba

[LeTiss 4pm]

All the fixed odds bookmakers stopped taking bets, which suggests unusual betting patterns. I'm sure the match will be reported to the governing bodies, but invariably we hear no more

[LeTiss 4pm]

0-0 Draw

I'm a little shocked

Is anyone aware of past Spanish matches being highlighted as potential fixes?

What if the organisation is bigger then we think. What if those criminals have no more power on italian games because under the spotlight and they may have forced some of the spanish clubs to fix games? Those criminals may have been looking for the next weak link and they may have found in the spanish segunda league...It's just a theory though....I remember 3-4 years ago spanish athletes have been accused of using some kind of drugs to perform better but it was all swept under the carpet..In Italy there is corruption everywhere at the moment but at least it's all under investigation..I would love to see what the outcome will be this time and if the spanish will recieve the same sht and deserved treatment we have recieved by the press...

Spain is in 'total emergency' according to their PM, and I'd expect to see a rise in corruption cases as the economic situation worsens and more people turn to crime to make ends meet...

I wouldn't go so far guys. Simply there was no incentive to score in this match, it's probably not a matter of corruption. The difference can be thin, but there is one!

I disagree

The fact that the bookies stopped taking bets due to the avalanche of bets on the draw, suggests something dodgy

[enzabella2009]

There are times when is not matter of corruption but the odds stay above 2,5 and rarest cases just below 2,0.This match has presented all the same anomalies that are now investigated in Italy. I have the feeling that, it will be swept under the carpet. The graph tells everything...

Maybe I didn't explain myself right.

As far as we know, games in Italy were being bought to by mafia related agents, and the players, coachs, etc were being paied to do as instructed.

In this match, it looks like there was an agreement to set a result that was in both team's best interest.

Of course the graph will look the same, and of course that in both situations the matches were fixed, what is surely bad.

But there is a difference in the way they were fixed, isn't there?

If both managers decided independently that their teams would play for the draw, that's one thing. But if, for argument's sake, the clubs got together and agreed not to even try to score against each other, than you could argue that that's a form of match fixing, and therefore corrupt.
