Meghalaya Football Association Bans Mizoram Players for Match Fixing
The Meghalaya Football Association (MFA) has taken a strong stance against match fixing by barring two Mizoram footballers, Flavius Lalruakima and C Vanlalhriata, from playing in the ongoing Shillong Premier League. The decision comes after the Mizoram Football Association (MFA) banned 25 players, including Lalruakima and Vanlalhriata, for their alleged involvement in match manipulation.
The MFA’s decision is a testament to its commitment to upholding the integrity of the sport. Match fixing undermines the fairness and credibility of football, and the MFA is determined to prevent such illegal activities from tarnishing the reputation of the game in Meghalaya.
The Mizoram FA’s investigation uncovered evidence of corruption in the form of match manipulation, which has severely damaged the reputation of football in the state. The banned players, officials, and clubs have been found guilty of engaging in illegal activities that have compromised the integrity of the sport.
The MFA has expressed its support for the Mizoram FA’s decision and has vowed to ensure that none of the sanctioned players can participate in any football league affiliated with the Meghalaya Football Association. This move sends a strong message to players that match fixing will not be tolerated and that those who engage in such activities will face severe consequences.
The MFA’s decision is a significant step towards safeguarding the integrity of football in Meghalaya. By standing in solidarity with the Mizoram FA, the MFA is demonstrating its commitment to fair play and ethical conduct in the sport.
