Behind The Scenes Of Football Match-Fixing
(Secrets Exposed By The King Of Match-Fixing)
(UEFA Champions League, FIFA World Cup, English Premier League, and more!)
This is not my usual blog post. Rather, the article on this page is a brief summary of the video below.
The documentary below about match-fixing in soccer will be the most interesting video you will ever watch. It’s so mind-blowing that I watched the entire video twice. The second time I viewed it, I took down some notes. And later, I thought I might as well convert my notes into a blog article here. Still, highly recommend you watch the documentary in its entirety.
- Wilson Raj Perumal (born in 1965) is one of the most notorious and successful match-fixers in the football world.
- The Singaporean man has decades of experience fixing football matches and betting huge amounts of money.
- After being released from prison in Finland in 2012, Wilson Raj was extradited to Hungary where he is currently living under a witness protection program.
Mind Blowing Revelations (Wilson Raj’s Personal Experience)
- Lost $3,000,000 in one weekend in Amsterdam – after he unsuccessfully tried to fix a match between Willem II and Feyenoord.
- Biggest win – $600,000 bet on Morocco to win against Malaysia in 1997.
- World Cup 2010 – David Villa missed penalty in Spain vs Honduras, costing him 800,000 EUR.
- Wilson Raj brought Zimbabwe to play a competition in Malaysia with the entire team already bought over.
- “The culture is different in England” – Birmingham City goalkeeper Ian Bennett and Chelsea goalkeeper Dmitri Kharine both rejected his bribe.
- Dan Tan (another notorious fixer) bribed stadium electricians to turn off floodlights in order to try force a Champions League game to be abandoned (Barcelona vs Fenerbahce in 2001).
- World Cup 2010 qualifications were fixed to allow Nigeria to qualify but Wilson Raj didn’t receive his part of the deal after the Nigerians qualified.
- MATCH-FIXING FAIL – tried to fix Bosnia to win Zimbabwe but Bosnia was so terrible that Zimbabwe had trouble conceding and accidentally scored a volley from the halfway line.
- Fixing the Syrian league by paying 10,000 USD per player per match – even though he could offer the Syrians much lower, Wilson Raj believes in “giving them what they deserve”. Scorelines in Syria were always fixed at 2-1.
- Fixing the 1996 Atlanta Olympics – worked with the Tunisian team.
- Forced Togo-Australia youth game to be abandoned in order to get his bet refunded – by getting red cards and injuries till the team was down to 6 men.
- Newspaper published result of Malaysian Cup fixture before the game was even played!
- Italian Serie A – the Italians fixed games and came to Wilson Raj to bet 1 million EUR. Wilson Raj and his syndicate could bet up to 3 million EUR, so they rode on the free intelligence from the Italians.
- How it all fell apart – Wilson Raj was arrested in Finland after a domestic flight (even though he used a different name on his passport).
Other Allegations (by Wilson Raj)
- Suspicious games – Wilson Raj claims that Chelsea vs Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final was “absolutely ridiculous”.
- Another game that was suspect to him was when Zenit St. Petersburg beat Bayern Munich in the UEFA Cup.
- When Lokomotiv Moscow played Thailand, “they all knew the result was going to be 0-0”. Lokomotiv also lost to China deliberately in the same tournament.
- FIFA World Cup 2022 bid won by Qatar – “corruption must have taken place”.
- World Cup 2010 finals – North Korea lost to Portugal 7-0 (Wilson Raj explains his theory).
- Best way to fix games is to bring African teams to Asian tournaments.
- Eastern European matches – integrity always in doubt.
Useful Takeaways (from the video)
- How to spot a corrupt match – not based on result, instead look at the movement of odds (how it fluctuates).
- Professional gamblers use Asian bookmakers when they need to place huge bets – up to 120,000 EUR per match.
