Turkey Match-Fixing Scandal

World Football

Available for over a year

World Football is in Istanbul to assess the damage that's been done by the major corruption scandal, that's delayed the start of the Turkish season and gone right to the top of the game. Match-fixing expert Declan Hill calls on the football authorities to invest time, money and resources in a Security Unit that has direct connections with law enforcement agencies. Scottish Football is in a slump - is it time to consider a radical shake-up which would change the game in Scotland forever. We're joined by former Scotland international Pat Nevin. Plus, Calcutta experiences Messi mania but will his appearance for Argentina have a positive impact on the sport in India. Presented by Lee James.
