Match-fixing and illegal betting exist in Spanish soccer and some authorities have yet to recognise the problem, a vice president of the country's professional league (LFP) said on Tuesday.
.
'' Here the illness is not admitted to so you cannot cure the patient '', the LFP's Javier Tebas was quoted as saying in Marca sports daily.
.
'' There are institutions which are not aware of what goes on '', he said.
.
'' There is matchfixing and illegal betting. In a small percentage but there is also corruption in Spain ''.
.
An inquiry by European police forces, the European anti-crime agency Europol, and national prosecutors has uncovered about 680 suspicious matches allegedly fixed as part of a global betting scam run from Singapore.
