How did the match fixing happen? The player who is a goalie was booked for time-wasting in the 64th minute during one of the games in March 2024.  Time wasting is a type of match fixing in addition to those from the ref and other officials.
Except there's more than meets the eyes, otherwise I don't think time wasting should be seen as match fixing where the team wasting time is the one leading. Of course, we should expect any leading team to desire that the match score remains as it's to their favour. I can only be very concerned if the losing team were the one holding tight to the ball and refusing to play. That would be a clear case of match fixing in my opinion.
