Persepolis futsal team dissolved over match-fixing

10 April 2012

Persepolis general manager Mohammad Ruyanian dissolved his futsal team on Tuesday over match-fixing.

In the last week of Iran Futsal League, Persepolis was defeated 12-2 (Futsalplanet note: 11-2 according to our data) by Gitipasand. The Isfahan-based team won the title with a one goal difference.

“We put players’ performance under scrutiny and found that some of them were involved in match-fixing. Persepolis futsal team has been dissolved and will not participate in the league in the coming season,” Ruyanian said.

Gitipasand will likely be stripped of its title championship.
