Uefa has been handed a 96-page report by Interpol alleging that 15 games in a variety of competitions were fixed.

 

The matches are thought to have been qualifiers for Euro 2008, the Champions League and Intertoto Cup.

 

BBC Sport's Nigel Adderley reports that Uefa has confirmed an investigation is taking place into the matches, which do not go further back than July 2005.

 

The news comes as Uefa officials are gathering in Lucerne for Sunday's Euro 2008 finals draw.

Imagine if Milan were one of the teams involved in the CL fixing, they might award us the CL.

 

Highly unlikely though.

A mate of mine is convinced Istanbul was fixed, Shevchenko purposely missed those two chances at the end as well as his penalty.

The magazine alleges that the vast majority of clubs involved come from countries in eastern and south-eastern Europe with Bulgaria, Georgia, Serbia, Croatia and the Baltics among those named.

According to 5live they involved qualifying games for the CL, Uefa cup and European Championships so I would assume they did not involve any of the big sides.

Everton must be sh*tting themselves.

Some of the odds you get on betfair are comical, theres loads of fixes.

Hopefully Croatia will get found guilty of match fixing in the euro qualifiers and get chucked out.... leaving Uefa to reinstate England. Perfect scenario; McClaren gone, England through anyway.

Carlsberg don't do breaking news stories, but if they did, they'd probably be the best in the world...................

Aye - a club like Milan would never be involved in anything dodgy like that....
