The 2011–12 Italian football match-fixing scandal emerged on 1 June 2011 after a number of football-related figures were arrested or placed under official scrutiny by Italian police for alleged match-fixing.[1][2] The list included well-known figures like former Italian international footballer Giuseppe Signori, as well as former Serie A players Mauro Bressan, Stefano Bettarini and Cristiano Doni.[2] The group was accused of having fixed a wide range of Serie B, Lega Pro Prima Divisione and Lega Pro Seconda Divisione games.
The inquiry started following a denunciation from Lega Pro Prima Divisione club Cremonese, instigated by internal suspicions involving first team goalkeeper Marco Paoloni, who was sold to Benevento in January 2011.[2]
First investigation, June 2011
editInvolved figures
edit- Marco Paoloni: Benevento goalkeeper, under arrest; deemed to be a central figure in the organization, accused of having actively worked to fix games in the Lega Pro Prima Divisione league in games involving Cremonese (where he played until January 2011) and Benevento (a team he joined during the winter transfer window), including having deliberately doped his former Cremonese teammates in order to fix a game. Also accused of having collected illegal bets and organized match fixes for the whole organization.[2]
- Giuseppe Signori: former Italian international footballer and Serie A topscorer, under house arrest; suspected of having placed illegal bets.[2]
- Stefano Bettarini: former Italian international footballer, under investigation; suspected of being a member of the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Antonio Bellavista: former Bari captain, under investigation; suspected of being a member of the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Mauro Bressan: former Serie A player, under investigation; suspected of being a member of the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Cristiano Doni: Atalanta captain and former Italian international footballer, under investigation; suspected of being a member of the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Vittorio Micolucci: Ascoli player, under arrest; suspected of having actively worked in order to fix Serie B games for the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Vincenzo Sommese: Ascoli player, under arrest; suspected of having actively worked in order to fix Serie B games for the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
- Gianfranco Parlato: Viareggio coaching staff member and former Serie B player, under arrest; suspected of having actively worked in order to fix Lega Pro Prima Divisione games for the criminal match fixing organization.[2]
Some of the involved persons had already been questioned or condemned for similar charges: Cristiano Doni was acquitted in 2000, whereas Vincenzo Sommese (in 2007) and Stefano Bettarini (in 2005) were each disqualified for six months due to illegal betting.
Potential consequences
editFollowing the inquiry, media speculated about the possibility that Atalanta and Siena might lose their right to play in Serie A in 2011–12. Atalanta's situation was considered particularly delicate due to the direct involvement of Cristiano Doni in the match fixing process, whereas Siena was accused of having paid Sassuolo players in order to obtain a win by more than three goals (game ended 4–0); Sassuolo, Ascoli, Padova and Piacenza were also mentioned in the inquiry and were at risk of being punished by the Federation due to the "objective responsibility" law.[3]

Second investigation, December 2011
editOn 19 December 2011, a new police operation coordinated by the Magistrature of Cremona led to a number of high-profile arrests, including active and former footballers such as Cristiano Doni, Luigi Sartor, Alessandro Zamperini, Nicola Santoni, Carlo Gervasoni and Filippo Carobbio. The inquiry started after Gubbio defender Simone Farina denounced a match fixing attempt from Zamperini (a former teammate of him at Roma), with a subsequent investigation leading the police to unveil a complex gambling system involving criminal figures in Singapore, Eastern Europe and Italy with interest in fixing football games all over Europe.[14] Both investigations were initiated and helped by abnormal betting flow reports.[15] Those reports were generated and reported to authorities by Austrian bookmaker SKS365.[16]
The scandal then dramatically evolved a few months later: on 28 May 2012, a number of higher-profile players were involved, and the Cremone Magistrature went on to arrest Lazio vice-captain Stefano Mauri, former Genoa captain Omar Milanetto, Cristian Bertani, Paolo Acerbis, Matteo Gritti, Alessandro Pellicori, Ivan Tisci and Marco Turati, whereas José Joelson Inácio was put under house arrest and Kewullay Conteh and Francesco Ruopolo were forbidden to leave the country.[17][18] More football figures were also put under investigation: among these, Juventus Serie A-winning head coach Antonio Conte (due to alleged failure to report attempted sporting fraud during his period as Siena manager), former Milan star Kakha Kaladze, Genoa striker Giuseppe Sculli (for whom the judge rejected an arrest request), Chievo striker Sergio Pellissier and Italian international Domenico Criscito who was training at Coverciano with the Azzurri team at the time, and was excluded from the UEFA Euro 2012 roster as a consequence.[18]
Shortly after the latest arrests, Premier Mario Monti publicly suggested that football competition in the country be suspended for at least two years. He indicated that this was his personal opinion, not a formal government proposal.[19] The manager of the Italy national team, Cesare Prandelli, said he "would have no problem" if his side were barred from Euro 2012 in the wake of the scandal.[20]
Sentences
editThe National Discipline Commission (CDN) of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) announced the first-degree charges for some involved parties in the scandal on 31 May[21] and 18 June.[22] On 6 July 2012 "Corte di Giustizia Federale" of FIGC announced the appeal ruling.[23]
