UEFA Launches Mobile Application To Stop Match-Fixing

The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) has introduced new measures to prevent match-fixing, including a new application for mobile devices.

A statement on UEFA official website said a key element of UEFA's wide-ranging activities is the fight against match-fixing, which is considered as one of the major threats to football's integrity and overall well-being.

The measures being introduced include an Integrity App, an Integrity Reporting Platform and free phone number reporting match fixing and other corruption cases as well as e-Learning opportunities for young players.

The number is now available for the public, while previously the hotline was only available for players, referees and coaches.
