Our eyes hurt watching this atrocious match-fixing in Columbia

Match-fixing is not some newly-created anomaly in football. It’s been there for ages, and we’ve witnessed some blatantly obvious examples of it during the years. But yesterday’s horror show in Columbia tops it fair and square.The second-tier side Union Magdalena needed an away win at Llaneros in the ultimate round to seal a promotion to the top division. Only two games ago, they were miles away from reaching the dream, but their contenders, Fortaleza, lost the last two fixtures in a row, including yesterday’s shocking defeat to bottom-side Bogota.##EDITORS_CHOICE##Those results pushed Union Magdalena only a step away from a massive success, but they were obliged to win at Llaneros. And were one down after the fourth minute of the stoppage time. You’ll never guess what happened then?!Firstly, Ethan Gonzales tied the game five minutes into the added time, and then – in a matter of seconds – Johnatan Segura scored a winner with 90+6 on the clock. Even without footage, it sounds highly suspicious, but it gets even crazier once you see the action that led to a decisive goal.ALIANZA PETROLERA – AMERICA CALI Union Magdalena is promoted to a top-flight. Ok. However, this sort of dreadful, atrocious match-fixing is laughable and disrespectful at the same time. Just check it out…In 🇨🇴Colombia, Union Magdalena won promotion to the top flight with this last minute goal. 🤔pic.twitter.com/b9TAhnYmpe— Sam Street (@samstreetwrites) December 4, 2021
