We've had some discussions here regarding fix matches being real or not, but today something astonishing happened where I was watching today's game that made me start to believe this narrative about fix matches being true.
Today someone came in where we were watching the Crystal Palace vs. Liverpool community shield game, a fan of Manchester United, and joined our table of discussion. As the discussion was on going, the supporter said his friend gave him the Liverpool vs. Crystal Palace match to bet as a fixed FT draw. Most of us did not believe it until he showed us where he staked the game, and at that point Liverpool were already leading by 2:1, so he said he was about to lose #100,000 (Nigerian Naira), but he's not worried because there was an agreement they had that if the game did not play, his friend is going to refund him. Particularly, I do not totally believe in a possible fixed match of a thing, but to my gratest surprise, I couldn't believe how the game ended in a 90-minute draw.
According to the guy, he said this is not the first time, that he's friend trust he's source, whereas he never disclosed any information to us upon our efforts trying to get more info.
Any similar experience?
I have a similar experience where a friend of mine shared a game he told me he bought from a telegram channel, they were just two draws on the bet slip. He staked high on it because he seemed very confident but I wasn't convinced. I told him that I would just wait to see the outcome even after he told me they were fixed matches. To my surprise the game was successful but I still think it was based on luck
