GENEVA – Attempts to fix football games at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, due to kick off in less than two months, are uneffective because the international football body FIFA fails to address it properly, the author of the book that revealed the existence of global match-fixing networks said on Thursday. Declan Hill, whose book on match fixing exposed the involvement of Asian gambling gangs in European football leagues, spoke at the Global Investigative Journalism Conference in Geneva. Afterwards, he was interviewed by EUX.TV’s Raymond Frenken.
