Nigeria Vs Scotland Game Investigated For Possible Match Fixing By British Top Security Agency

Nigeria's friendly game against Scotland tomorrow is being investigated by British top security agency National Crime Agency (NCA) and world football body FIFA after claims by police that attempts have been made to fix the match.

Scotland Football Association head of security Peter McLaughlin has been communicating with the NCA for the last three days.

The NCA (Britain's equivalent of the FBI) has declined to talk about the matter stating it is still a developing investigation.

But an NCA spokesman told the Daily Mirror that: 'The NCA will from time to time provide operational detail necessary for public reassurance purposes. It does not routinely confirm or deny the existence of specific operations or provide ongoing commentary on operational activity.'

The NCA suspects that sponsors of the match fixing hail from the Asian betting markets and have passed this information to FIFA.
