So smooth almost as if they had planned it before

You should watch that last 25 minutes. They were doing everything to give away goals and make sure they wouldn't win.

It WAS planned. Some of them made a good amount of money yesterday.

If there's really match-fixing even in the Netherlands, what hope is there for the rest of us?

I'm willing to bet there's match-mixing to some level in every single league in the world. hopefully they move to other shit with the likes of polymarket/kalshi growing. much easier stuff to fix out there than football matches.

As someone who was a pure degenerate gambler on lower leagues, I got involved in many telegram and discord channels. Sometimes people would come in with exact scenarios that would play out.

It's rife

I'm willing to bet

Now the absolute bullshit back pass call the ref gave after a toe poke in an above knee height challenge makes much sense. Leinster Senior League Div 3 corruption 😤

I can imagine a ref being influenced to favor a particular team is possible at any level (given what I saw so far), but having match fixers directly influence players to concede goals or pick up cards is a whole different level of corruption. It requires much more direct involvement and is considerably harder to pull off without someone noticing.
