Six of them played for Real Apodaca, and the other for Correcaminos UAT.

Neither the Mexican Football Association disciplinary commission nor the two clubs revealed the names of the players and did not say which matches were manipulated.

A player each from Apodaca and Correcaminos were suspended from soccer for 16 years each. Three players were sanctioned for seven years, and two more for two years.

Real Apodaca, a team founded in 2023 in Nuevo Leon, in the country’s north, had already suspended its six players this week. According to local media, the Real Apodaca players lost matches on purpose or by two goals or more.
