When I heard fifa were investigating a match, I thought it would be Ghana against Portugal.

Portugal ahead on what was just a dumb own goal.

Ghana tied.

Then this:

Keeper didn't catch it...or punch it.

He threw it in the center.

Even Ronaldo looked at it like a gift.

O 2.5 and Portugal winning

the own goal was unlucky, ball took a real upward kick off the turf

Agree on the own goal.

That move by the keeper made no sense, though. 

He towered over everyone and it was in his hands.

Cameroon-Croatia was the most fixed match I've ever seen with one exception.

West Ham v Fulham?

Some Russian league match about 18 months ago.

The Ghana keeper's effort does look a bit dodgy.  I see he plays for Orlando Pirates in South Africa.  Plus you could add the fact that probably their 2 most highly paid players, Muntari and KPB were sent home prior to the match.

fwiw the prices on Croatia v Cameroon were slightly out of sink on here.  Makes no sense that Alex Song would do anything dodgy.  Then again it makes no sense that he did what he did either.

He was the reserve keeper for Orlando Pirates too!!  Played only 3 games for them all season.

The Ghana keeper should have punched it into the net just to be sure.  Ronaldo could have missed.

Dodgiest is the entire tournament organized in Turkey.

Teams invited.

Tournament hand selects officials.

No advertising and a handful of people in the stands.

All matches had results.

The clue:

Every goal in the tournament......were on penalties and free kicks given by the referees Laugh

remember when 'arry was in charge at west ham and they had to get a result at old trafford and he had one of the ferdinand brothers while the other played for man utd.
west ham unbelievably got the result they needed as man utd players missed chance after chance.

then there was the time 'arry was in charge at QPR and they went to stamford bridge desperately needing points to avoid relegation.
his nephew played for chelsea and QPR got the points as chelsea missed chance after chance.

an amazing coincidence.

where there is money involved

and the culprits know it

Fifa happy with their construction kick-backs, etc. 

Individual countries are more at fault and, moreso, the betting industry who only bring it to light when they are clobbered while letting punters bet on dodgy events.

the betting industry tend to withold winnings when they discover a game has been dodgy but how many times do they return money to the many losers who lost betting on the same dodgy game.
Report SHAPESHIFTER July 3, 2014 11:13 AM BST
The betting industry is the same as any business who ultimately does not respect its customers in any way.  Can be compared to energy firms.

can tell you ghana, nigeria and this cameeroon side been involved in other world cup games and they were very suspect

im 100%  certain the portugal and croatia games were fixed....   

the nigerian goalkeeper is a very unsavory person... he is def up to no good... dont care what anyone says ... he has been on the take maybe for six years easily
