European Championship match official Felix Zwayer and his previous links to match-fixing
Felix Zwayer was born in Berlin and referees in the Bundesliga but not everybody in Germany agrees he should be officiating at the men’s European Championship.
Zwayer, 43, was given a six-month ban by his country’s football federation (DFB) in 2006, having worked as an assistant referee alongside Robert Hoyzer.
Zwayer was one of the officials who brought Hoyzer’s match-fixing plot to light and Hoyzer was banned for life. Zwayer has always denied being in on Hoyzer’s fix of Wuppertal’s game with Werder Bremen II in 2004 and a DFB investigation found no evidence that he had made decisions to alter the outcome of the game.
He was discovered to have accepted a €300 payment from Hoyzer, however, and was suspended for six months for failing to refuse the offer and then for failing to properly report it.
The DFB’s ban of Zwayer was not public knowledge until a report by Die Zeit 10 years later.
