Suprisingly, the most commonly rigged matches worldwide are Champions league finals, World cup finals or semi's,Euro cup finals, and Uefa cup finals.
This happens because of money. These 4 events are the most wagered events wordwide every year or whenever they happen, and over 90% of the money is wagered on the one team to win or the other team to win, leaving the draw open for the bookies to collect all the money.
In football(Soccer) all bets end at 90th minute.
The result is that its not even unfair, i mean, so they all get payed to end in a draw, and play overtime and if neccesary a penalty shoot out straight up to determine the winner.
If you look back over the past 5 years, and notice the amounts wagered, you'll notice that the 4 most highly wagered events in history all ended in a draw.
