Victoria Police have charged two soccer players, including one A-League player, for allegedly manipulating yellow cards in Australia’s top-tier soccer competition.
Police have charged a 24-year-old West Melbourne man and a 27-year-old Kingsville man with several offences relating to allegedly manipulating cards for gambling purposes in four A-League matches during April and May.
Football Australia has placed “no-fault interim suspensions” on the two players following the charges. One player is from the A-League and one plays in a state league.
Police said detectives from the Sporting Integrity Intelligence Unit worked closely with Football Australia during its investigation.
