Reports emerging from several media outlets reveal to soka25east that the return leg match between Zimbabwean defending league champions CAPS United and multiple CAF Champions league winners TP Mazembe shows how the match could be rigged

At the centre of controversy is the appointment of Seychelles referee Bernard Carmille who is believed to have been favouring the boys from Lubumbashi.

His appointment has caused a web of confusion considering his earlier decisions made when he officiated in determining matches involving Mazembe

He is said to have helped Mazembe with two undeserving penalties for Mazembe against Orlando Pirates although the late Pirates keeper Senzo Meyiwa saved the dubious penalties .He even sent off Pirates defender Lucky Legwathi in the first half in what the skipper termed a big joke and efforts to kill African game with the then coach Roger de ser terminh the officiating ‘crazy’s and that he has never seen in his entire footballing coaching career

He was also uncharged of Mazembe’s so or die clash against Medeama of Ghana in Lubumbashi which the hosts won 3-1 again controversially

Seychelles FA chief Suketu Patel, a close confidant of outgone CAF president Issa Hayatoo who was among those embarrassed with a humiliating defeat is said to be the man behind this tactics

Is the match fixed?

Our efforts to reach the CAPs United chairman were futile
