I-League players approached for match manipulation: AIFF

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) on Thursday revealed that several I-League players were recently approached for "match manipulation" and promised to investigate the matter.

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) on Thursday revealed that several I-League players were recently approached for "match manipulation" and promised to investigate the matter.
AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey did not elaborate on how they received the information, which players were approached and who contacted them but insisted that the federation is committed to save the integrity of the game.
"We have received information of multiple approaches to our players. We will thoroughly examine the incidents, investigate, and take all necessary action," Chaubey said in a statement.
"We are committed to protecting our players and our beautiful game and will not tolerate any attempts of this nature to put the players and the game at risk," he said.
The 2023 I League season began in October and more than 40 matches have already been played in the 13-team competition.
"We will also continue to strengthen our institutional capacities to not only counter such threats but also educate our players and officials on how to recognise, respond to, and report incidents of this nature," said Chaubey.
The AIFF said it has taken serious note of the matter and reiterated its zero-tolerance policy towards any activity that impacts the integrity of its competitions or otherwise brings the game of football into disrepute.
"AIFF is committed to taking every step within its power to prevent corrupt practices from undermining the values of football," it said.
Sources in the know of things said that the players being approached are from four clubs.
"The information received is related to approaches to players of four clubs. Most probably, the approaches were made early in the season," an AIFF source told PTI on conditions of anonymity, without revealing the name of the players and clubs.
"AIFF integrity officer Javed Siraj is looking into the matter," the source added.
It is also learnt that the AIFF could also investigate into few "suspicious" I-League matches.
The AIFF has in the past expressed concerns about investments made to I-League clubs by shell companies linked to shady people.
Incidents of corrupt practices in Indian football are not new.
In 2018, the AIFF officially said that it was investigating match-fixing approaches made to players from the Minerva Punjab Football Club during the I-League.
In November last year, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had registered a preliminary enquiry into alleged match fixing in football matches in the country.
During the enquiry, the CBI had collected documents from the AIFF on several Indian football clubs. Under the scanner was the role of an alleged match fixer, based in Singapore, in rigging the results of matches.

After the emergence of fresh Covid-19 cases inside the bio-bubble, the All India Football Federation has suspended the I-League for at least six weeks.
According to media reports, Covid-19 cases inside the bubble have surged to 45 which prompted the AIFF to suspend the league for six weeks. Now the I-league officials will take the stock of the situation in the first week of February before taking any further course of action.
Earlier, the league was suspended for a week after eight players and three officials had tested positive for Covid on Wednesday.

A team played a football match with nine men with no substitution, this may seem bizarre to many but it has happened during an I-League game.
Rajasthan United, who played first match in the I-League competition, were already down to nine men before kick-off following confusion in the registration of amateur players.
However, these nine men fought valiantly in their debut I-League game before going down 2-0 against Punjab FC.
Punjab put immense pressure on the debutant goalpost but Rajasthan denied them of taking an early lead before Punjab netted one in the 27th minute.
Punjab had many chances to score but Rajasthan played with immense grit and resilience. Punjab have to wait till the dying minutes to double the lead.
Though Rajasthan lost their debut match but showed how to play defensive football in an improbable situation.
So, how did Rajasthan United get into this bizarre game of football?
Rajasthan made it to their maiden I-League qualification in October. Then, some errant decisions from the club led to this unprecedented situation. The Jaipur-based club decided to let go of many players to sign better ones for the I-League.
But the club had no way to sign professional players in October as the July-August transfer window for professional players had already ended.
AIFF allowed the club to rope in amateur players till December 31 but here a catch-22 situation arose. According to the AIFF statement issued on December 21, amateur players who got signed on or before August can play till December 31, which did not allow Rajasthan United's new signings to play in their I-League opener on Sunday.

Watch! fans go crazy as Mohun Bagan get I-League trophy

Thousands of fans filled the streets of Kolkata as the trophy was carried out in an open vehicle&nbsp;parade.

7 months after being crowned the I-League champions, Mohun&nbsp;Bagan&nbsp;were finally presented with the trophy on Sunday. The club had won the championship on March 10 with 4 rounds to spare but since the season ended abruptly because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the celebrations had to wait. Though the ceremony happened in the presence of just a few selected invitees, but thousands of fans filled the streets of Kolkata as the trophy was carried out in an open vehicle&nbsp;parade. Fans though gave almost no importance to social distancing and many people were spotted without masks as they danced on the streets. Mohun&nbsp;Bagan&nbsp;had announced its merger with Indian Super League's current champions&nbsp;Atl&eacute;tico de Kolkata&nbsp;in January.
