Football makes up roughly $900b for global sports betting, meaning that the match-fixing industry, which seeks to influence results and outcomes, is potentially worth billions in itself.
But what is match-fixing, where does it happen and who is involved?
And why is it so difficult to detect?
Alex Stewart explains. Henry Cooke illustrates.

No need, they're just butthurt Wrestling fans.
@@DR3ADER1 what's wrong with wrestling?
@@cwm6203 The fact that it's an uninteresting and shallow work of fakery when actual sports work at their best when nothing is scripted because you can't write a story that's better than the real thing? Let's start there.
@@DR3ADER1 uninteresting and shallow to you, not to others.
*nothing is scripted because you can't write a story that's better than the real thing*
Cause that is not the point of pro wrestling, it is not a sport, it's more "sports entertainment". I don't see why you need to be so wind up about it.

A top former English referee was doing talks in my country to our local referee groups, and he told me about a match-fixing referee who he was assigned to assess. It was an Eastern European referee on some Europa Cup early qualifying round, and this assessor was called by UEFA beforehand, and told that the referee was suspected of being involved in fixing, and there were anomalous betting patterns, I think on one of the teams scoring 1 goal during the game.
They wanted to catch him in the act, so they didn't pull him off the game, and this assessor had to act normal. The game was all going pretty simple, no weird decisions or anything, until the middle of the second half when he gave a penalty off a corner, gesturing there had been pushing in the box. Replays showed that there was absolutely nothing. So a penalty was given, but then it was missed, and for the rest of the game the assessor was expecting another weird call. But full time arrived, and nothing more out of the ordinary happened. The anomalous betting pattern wasn't fulfilled -- the fixers didn't win their bets.
After the game the assessor had to carry on as normal and do the normal post-match assessor thing of talking to the referee, talking through various decisisons with him, giving feedback. Apparently the referee gave the weakest of "I saw a push" explanations for the penalty, and looked very uncomfortable, while being told by the assessor that it was a clear mistake based on video replays. Eventually the assessor had to ride with the referee to the airport, trying to act normal, and after they parted, the referee was arrested at the airport.
It was interesting noting how the referee wasn't being asked to ensure the bet was fulfilled, just to swing the odds. I think the deal was, if the team hadn't scored a goal by a certain minute, the referee had to give them a penalty. He would have clearly waited around to try and hope it occurred naturally, but eventually he had to make one up. But after that, his job was done. It didn't matter what the outcome of the penalty was, they/he didn't want to draw attention to the fix by making multiple weird decisions
Did you see the UEFA Europa League Final 2023 at Budapest?
Lies again? UFC SILAT MMA FIGHTER
One story from a lower, regional Polish league in early 2000s. The home team made a deal they'll lose the game. There was one problem - a young Nigerian striker, new player. He had no clue and didn't speak Polish either. The whole game fans could hear his teammates shouting at each other "nie podawaj do czarnucha (don't pass to the negro)". They were afraid he will score, and they won't get their bonus.
When you look at how shocking some referee decisions are in the Premier League even after using VAR you can’t help but think there’s corruption involved.
When we normal fans can see decisions easily and professional referees with technology can’t, you have to ask questions...
Definitely. Actually they are using a no fans at stadium as a advantage to involve in more match fixing in PL
Especially since that ref admitted that it was corrupt, then retracted his statements.
*Cough Mike Dean cough* 😆
@@NeonLeonNoel who said that?
Is it some kind of conspiracy mons? 🤔
I've worked in the iGaming (casino & betting) industry for nearly 6 years. Syndicates are rife and match fixing runs very deep. Great analysis in this vid.
Dude I'd take your profile pic off your page then! 😆
@@nicolasnicolas3889 no
The 6 dislikes are from FIFA officials 😂
and AFA officials trying to force the Santiago del Estero club meme.
@@Kenny-Blankenship I never heard of this, is it about that luxurious stadium in the middle of an empoverished region that belongs to no club?
@@applehack97 Partially, yes.
The president of AFA, Claudio Tapia, has a right hand man named Pablo Toviggino, who is friends with the governor of Santiago del Estero (Gerardo Zamora). There's a rabbit hole going on here, but basically, a club named Güemes benefitted from MASSIVELY favorable refereeing in promotional playoffs. Now, Güemes is in the second tier of Argentine club football.
@@Kenny-Blankenship I just read about it. Reminds me of all the dubious shit about Deportivo Riestra, Tapia's team
@@applehack97 Yeah, Leo MdQ II did a video specifically about Güemes, but it's all in spanish. "Los arreglos en el futbol argentino y el ascenso de Guemes"

Hey, stereotypes spring up for a reason!
Anyone else reminded of that ludicrous display from the city v dortmund ref the other night
I'm a biased Dortmund fan, but City do have a lot more money than we do...
Man utd vs granada as well
Nah, they’re having a laugh!
The problem with arsenal is they always try to walk it in
@@ratedpending Yeah because City haven't been on the receiving end of dodgy decisions in Europe....
no wonder so many teams are sponsored by betting companies
I've never made that connection before but yeah that makes so much sense
The Bulgarian league is named after a betting site ffs.
So is VAR
The best way to make money off of gambling is to be the one running the books. It's insane the amount of money to be made there.
@@midknight Makes sense!
Anyone still remember the Wigan scandal last season? A fake company bought them to then bankrupt them and so get the 12 point deduction, relegating them and making sure a bet won huge sums of money in some Asian casino
Anyone still remember the Leicester scandal? It is clear that they got paid to win all those matches, to then win the league
@Alca Pone other teams can take a leaf out of Leicester's book. If Pep had bribed his players to play well in the UCL, they would've won the Champions League
I just thought Corrupt FC had a good day.....
Athletico Nefarious let those goals in too easy, I knew something was up! 🤔
Matches that are fixed are great. Ive bet on at least 40 matches so far this season that have been fixed. Small amounts, no one will ever know. Football is just money now a days. Its funny to think people actually think every single match is genuine and not fixed.
How did you know what matches were fixed?
@@figaslalhh he doesn't u need to find a football agent
This just reminded me of Chelsea vs Barcelona 2009, second leg Champions League at The Bridge
No justice, bloody Øvrebo
Since we know Platini and his cronies were corrupt to the core, I think we can say that match was fixed in all likelihood. The referee was most likely under instructions from UEFA not to allow another Man Utd-Chelsea final
Absolutely. They did everything to prevent an all English Final for two seasons running. Disgusting
I still wanna slap Ovrebo, 12 years later
This just reminded me of Chelsea vs Barcelona in 2008/2009 season first leg match. Ref didnt give Barça 3 clear penalties. Ballack should has been sent off and Abidal's got a wrong red card. Biggest disgrace you'll ever seen but this is not talked much because they are Barcelona...
Ateltico (Nefarious) Madrid not registering one shot on target and being knocked out by Cornellus in the Copa Del Rey...
I just love how Tifo comes up with some of the most interesting footballing topics, which have never beem done before every week 😍
I like how they do the "behind the scenes" of football and show the real business besides just what's on the pitch
I remember premier league games back in the late 90s and early 00s where players would just hoof the ball into touch immediately after kickoff or get an early card within the first 5 mins. Always seemed odd to me but obviously it was spot fixing. Thinking back it was everywhere and some pretty well known players done it.
It's much more commonplace in cricket
I remember Mark Noble doing it for West ham. Jus kicked it straight out from kick off.
I dun think ppl actually bet on those things at that time
Matt le tissier talks about kicking the ball out in the first min and betting on it
Match-fixers buying clubs? I had no idea it was that sophisticated. Jesus.
Even with a topic like this, tifo still somehow turn it into an amazing video
I used to be a referee in Slovakian non-league and only once I was offered a 'bonus' for a win for the away team that was in a relegation battle. Luckily I was a lino at that game so I didn't have too much to decide apart from some tight offsides I wasn't sure about letting go in their favor. The team played so badly even we couldn't help them. So nothing came off it in the end.
The interesting thing is that the player that contacted me was actually a referee himself who played on Sundays and refereed on Saturdays.
Hello man
Woah this is so complicated, in Italy they just have a dinner with the proposal and everything's done
It's so sad how nowadays whenever I see a result that was a great comeback I take a moment to consider it skeptically and wonder if it was truly deserved
It’s an entertainment business.
Absolutely, the PL is completely fixed
@@joed7599 No it isn't PL is not fixed at all. It is in the lower leagues that match-fixing occurs.
@@arunachalasivatejamudigond427 epl referees are stupid but can referees even be that stupid? Former epl referee i forgot his name tho admitted to match fixing
I’m English born and loved the PL all my life, all major sports is fixed and scripted it’s entertainment for the masses the more “ exciting “ the better for the audience the more money they make. Watch old games, man city winning the league on the last day is a complete fix.
If you know anything about football you would see how “professionals” who have played football all the lives can not and should be making mistakes like they do. Liverpool v Real Madrid champions league final
I saw an Ecuadorian game the other day that was hilariously fixed against the home team. The referee sent off a player for essentially standing next to someone and disallowed a goal from a corner for absolutely no reason, even the players were just sort of laughing.

@@joachimlunares4871Where to search??

Odd that Korea 2002 wasn't mentioned, the biggest matchfixing story in football in my time
That was so bizarre…
The animation in this is incredible
This is so well done, a really thorough and comprehensive video. Fantastic.
I had never seriously thought about the nature of match-fixing, this was really an eye-opening video!
Let's take this channel to 1 million and beyond
Man these videos are SO well edited and mixed. The music is spot on. Such a welce change from 90% of other contents on CZcams
These videos have definitely catches my eye more as of late, keep it up whatever you guys are doing over there.
That Dortmund-City game comes to mind with the Refs rulings
Not really, considering the penalty for City that was (rightfully) overturned. I’d consider it if that hadn’t happened.
I think it's just a bad mistake. Without the replay it did look like a foul
one bad decision. atrocious decisions happen all the time, nothing really suggests city fixed it and the only reason people think they did is because they dont like city.
There's far too much money and exposure at the top end of the Game for match fixing to be rife. The amount required to pay people off is so much that the amount required to gamble in order to make a profit from would stand out a mile with bookmakers. Far easier to rig multiple smaller games with smaller amounts.
@@michaelscott7166 you're simply gullible. Betting companies are major sponsors to many teams and official partners of the premier league. Imagine the amount of money to be made rigging a fixture that has insane odds. That's how the league works buddy.
In next video, can you please show us how to do the match fixing?
Wow Tifo Football! Thanks for touching these topics!
Best Football channel imo on YT
Thanks for the tutorial! Been looking for a way to go about match fixing..
That ref in the Dortmund Man City game should be investigated
Yes
Why, because he was Romanian?
Absolutely! He was horrible and should never have blown the whistle before Bellingham had scored.
Guinness no dude
@@GuinessOriginal Got to do with his decisions on the day.
Barcelona. Tom Henning Ovrebo. 2009.
This was such a great and informative watch. Quality content!
Amazing of Moses to turn it around and start a consulting business off his experience. Goes to show mentality matters, he could’ve felt sorry for himself for losing everything he had.
Porto - Uefa cup final 2003. Players and referees were in on it, every obvious dive given in favor of Porto and one man was even stretchered off 3 time in the same game. shocking corruption.
Thanks, I started reffing youth soccer and can really use this!
Hahaha ok bruh I would really like to sell it for millions soon.
As Educational as usual. You are the best. Thank you.
good topic to talk about and very informative thanks for the content
THIS CHANNEL IS SOO UNDERRATED...
nearly at a million subs... not really 'underrated' numbers
@@cameron2348 the views and subs they are getting are very less when compared to the amount of work they put in...this is one the most informative channel on youtube in terms of football
a friend of my borther plays in the first slovenian league and he says that every match is fixed, some people go into the locker room and say everything that has to happen, sometimes it’s very precise like when that lady in the stands puts her hand up you need to shoot, assist or whatever needs to be done. I was there when he was explaining it and it was very sad, but what can you do
Suuuure 😒
I liked the video while waiting for the ads in the beginning because i know that this video gonna be awesome

Thanks for helping expose these criminals. In some matches it appears obvious something is going on.
Very interesting. Really liked how the topic was explained.
"Sus-ometer"
HOLY SHIT IS THAT AN AMOGUS REFERENCE 😱😱😱
Excellent analysis, as always. But for one little nitpick : tandem means cooperation of two. Three elements cannot "work in tandem".
The Cambridge dictionary among others do not actually support this claim.
VAR is modern day match fixing, do a video on that!
based on that, was Liverpool v Manchester United fixed??
you cannot lose 7-0 after a succession of brilliant performance and results !!
😏
Tifo are the kings of providing me with videos and information I didn’t know I needed
11:00 speaking of esports, theres been a match fixing scandal in china recently so bad that the whole secondary league has been shut down indefinitely
Please do a video about what happened with Wigan Athletic! I feel as though that would be a perfect lead on from this. Brilliant video.
What's crazy is that with Covid right even some big teams are struggling financially and I as a Sports Better have noticed that some of this big teams are taking bribes too but I have noticed that the weekend games have the most volatility. If you bet during the week you're fine
1:44 can't help but feel the 2022 wc was a victim of these...
Ted Hastings and AC-12 would sort those OCGs for match fixing in no time at all
😂😂😂😂, “Theres only one thing I’m interested in and that’s bent coppers”
Thank you for the tutorial.
I'd really appreciate a specific video on the German match fixing scandal!
Man, I remember the Hoyzer scandal like it was yesterday. I was 10 at the time, and Hamburg was a team I didn't really care for all that much (I'm a Werder Bremen fan myself), but my old man's a Hamburg fan, and I vividly remember him ranting during and after the match about the utterly bizarre calls the referee made. And of course that became a pretty big deal because the World Cup was coming up and they didn't want a scandal like that just before a tournament here in Germany. Thankfully some reforms were done afterwards to prevent this from happening again, but still left a bad aftertaste. To this day, calling a referee a Hoyzer will immediately get you a yellow card in Germany because of that. There's been some other divisive stuff regarding this - another official for the game, Felix Zwayer, cooperated with Hoyzer according to Hoyzer's own testimony and supposedly accepted 300€ for this, but they never found conclusive proof for this despite Zwayer also doing some strange calls during that game. Guy is still working as a referee to this day.
Same, even watched that.. and a lot of those in Turkey and Kongo.. If u are curious about those matches , just google my name .
Now I have a doubt on the Ref from last night United's game. He was horrible
Wanted to say the same...
Please can you explain the conference league and how to qualify for each country etc?
Thank you
Great video and information! I place bets on South Korea through bookmakers they don’t take certain games
The music is so good on these i zone out and miss what's being said lmao
First example of spot fixing that comes to mind is Lorus Carrius. Man must've been on the take.
I hope he was payed well because that performance basically ruined his life
That one was probably an actual mistake. Because even match fixers dun do it so obviously
STATS PERFORM? Let’s gooooo!!! My dad works there :O

2:30 that Usual Suspects reference though
City vs Dortmund was a great example of march fixing
Don't confuse bad referring with match fixing
@@bluemartini7768 at Bellingham goal he could have let the goal stand and check VAR but he just didn't want to do it. If that's not match fixing I don't know what it is.
@@bluemartini7768 My instincts tell me it was fixed, consciously I've got to remind myself he might just have had a really bad day but watching it, it felt off. Not just the Bellingham goal but also the penalty that wasn't and his manner towards it. He seemed more apologetic to the City players for not giving them a penalty they dived for than to the Dortmund players he was about to wrongly give a penalty against. And no yellow for simulation, there's contact with his knee and he act's like it's his head. Might just have been in way over his head or had a really bad day but I'm not there yet.
@@bluemartini7768 reffed one sided. Tried to give them a pen when clearly can didn’t do anything. Had be shown under a 200x zoom to change it looking for any detail to give it. Kept the yellow for can. Then with Jude the ref blew the whistle so VAR couldn’t give the goal it clearly was. And then also gave Jude a yellow. That’s not bad reffing from a very experienced consistent ref.
@@bluemartini7768 also go look at the odds for the game and then look at the lines and where the money was on.
Where are your sources for all these claims? Numerous interesting numbers and data were brought up. How can we confirm them without sources??
thanks for the tutorial mate
Shoutout to The Usual Suspects lineup 😍
I'm relatively certain that the Chinese and Russian OCGs have compromised my kids' U13 and U8 Soccer (football) leagues.
I mean, last game that was so clearly a red card offense, in the box, but no penalty was awarded. It's just so shocking that the Russians would get to a 14 year-old ref, but it's also the only explanation.
Tifo done again with a great video
Thanks for the tips guys! Now I’ll able to start fixing matches in no time! (Joking, obviously lol... maybe)
When my dad played for Korea and played against Thailand pre much the whole Thai team got arrested for money betting
You said "no-bowls" in relation to cricket.
Turn in your English card.
One of the main reasons of illegal betting is about how a lot of countries approach to betting markets. I'm from Turkey, not betting for about 3 years now but when I got used to betting few years back, I never felt the need of betting illegally in Ukraine where I was residing back then. Because there are multiple betting firms that operate freely and globally. Bookmaker offices are even comfy and they give you checks and cold cash at the spot.
In Turkey however, the government gives the market to one firm, who then tries to exploit people with pathetic level of coefficients, narrow range of betting options, forcing people to pick at least three matches in one bet. All this forces people out of legal markets and everybody are using illegal ones.
Was hoping for a tutorial but this too was interesting
i knew the referees in my fifa games were up to something
Tennis is the most fixed sport.
In Football, its Player To Be Carded market which is the most fixed market.
How you came to this conclusion?
@@duartedsmoreira its quite common knowledge tbh.
Tennis only requires 1 person to be in on it / be bribed. It also offers lots of in-play markets with high odds.
Cards in football is basically the same as above. Only requires one person and cards have high odds.
Why would you try and bribe 2 whole football teams and management when you can just bribe 1 person?
Ots easier, cheaper and harder to be found out.
Please make Tifo Basketball active again😢
We love your content
I NEEDED THIS
That Palace v Man United FA Cup Final is without doubt the most fixed game I’ve seen live. How Clattenburg didn’t play an advantage to allow Wickham to score is crazy
Clattenburg admitted that he and the other referees were giving decisions going Man United's way
@@wonderfulhumanbeingwithagr6381 bullshit he never said that
You guys should talk about how Moggi and Juve were controlling the Italian referees through Pairetto and Bergamo from the nineties up to ‘06. And don’t forget how Milan, Lazio and Fiorentina were also buying this privileges from Juve. You really should talk about it, from what I see no one outside of Italy knows how dirty Juve is when he comes to “winning is all it matters”...
wow...very much detailed
Love the background music as well whatever it is?
I’m one of the fewest people that believe Var has made match fixing possible
Actually it makes ppl think they are not corrupted
@ohgin12345 have you ever watched a match and learned a new rule? I have been watching football for as long as I can remember, and trust me, I learn of a new rule every game week. Some contradict themselves
In the mexican women's league its believed that the games are fixed among the players because of the poor payment they recieve. First halfs of games end 0-0 and then there's a flurry of goals in the second half.
If first half ends 0 0 isn't this an opportunity?
Lyon 7-1 Dinamo Zagreb 2011 is one of the most obvious matches that comes to my mind. Just observe how the goals happen and consider the implications of the score line for both Ajax and Lyon. Also, another Champions League match between Liverpool and Debrecen 2009. The goalkeeper of Debrecen was supposed to let in at least 3 goals. Sadly for him, Liverpool only managed to score 1 goal.
Hey man! Corrupt FC are my team and we won that game fair and square! It's not our fault Athletico Nefarious only fielded two players and Referee McBribe called time 85 minutes early!
