it's really the only thing that would make sense in this case.

I don't get it. The US game was a sure thing from the start. Why would anyone waste their time to fix it?


There was a guy in the game thread yesterday wanting to know if US +2.5 was a good bet.

I'm sure point spread and over/under are big bets in soccer.

Soccer fixing can be different stuff. People make bets on who gets the first red/yellow cards or offside violations as well as win/loss. The guy who blatantly jumped with both legs against the USA player could have been asked to get a card or something. Heard about all this a couple of years ago when I was in Chelsea

or will there be a yellow card in the 10th - 20th minute stuff like that.
That could explain the double footed jumping cleat-stomp. That frick was probably hoping for a red.
