Nigerian Footballer, Ike Uche In Match-fixing Scandal by nickxtra(m): 8:57pm On Oct 02, 2014 |
Nigerian striker, Ike Uche and his team mates have been mentioned in a match-fixing scandal, according to Spanish newspaper El Mundo. Uche’s club then Real Zaragoza beat Levante 2-1 on the final day of the 2010/11 season to avoid relegation, while Levante and Deportivo La Coruna were demoted as a result. Atletico Madrid captain Gabi, who scored Zaragoza’s two goals on that fateful day, confessed to a judge Thursday he was aware the match was fixed. “I just did what the club asked me to do,” the 29-year-old midfielder simply said in court, according to El Mundo. It is suspected that Levante players were paid to lose the match. And the spotlight of this trial has fallen on Agapito Iglesias, the then owner of Zaragoza, Leonardo Ponzio, Leo Franco and Uche, according to El Mundo. The prosecutor wants to question at least 20 players in this match-fixing trial. Source: Vanguard

You won your match and they still question you for match fixing. Do they expect you to lose your match before? They should focus their attention on Levante, abeg. |
