German federation vows action in soccer scandal
November 21, 2009 11:00 AM

FRANKFURT
The German soccer federation is promising swift action against players, coaches and referees found guilty in the match-fixing scandal across Europe.



The federation is pledging to work closely with authorities investigating what has been described as the biggest match-fixing scandal in Europe.

The investigation so far has resulted in arrests in Germany and Switzerland. Investigators believe 200 games have been manipulated, including three in qualifying for the Champions League and 12 in the Europa League, the continent's second-tier club competition.

Officials from European federations will meet Wednesday to discuss the situation at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.
