On the threat of match-fixing

On the threat of match-fixing
We established the “Early Warning System” (EWS), which has done a huge amount to help in this respect. The EWS cooperates with official betting organisations, and the system has been progressively extended, after liaison with UEFA and the German FA, and with support from Interpol. We should be warned very early indeed if anything threatens to happen at the World Cup. Illegal match-fixing can only be eradicated by state intervention and support from the authorities
