13.9% of the footballers in Cyprus who took part in this survey said that they played in a friendly game that they knew was fixed, while the percentage they knew in an official game was 21.3%.
This is demonstrated by research by the Combating Match Fixing in Club Football Non-Competitive Matches Project, the results of which were presented today at the University of Nicosia.
According to a press release, the main conclusion drawn from the research phase of the interviews is that while match-fixing in official competitions is regulated by legislation at least in European countries, there is no regulation for friendly matches.
