It seems that every bad goal that soccer teams let in these days are greeted with suspicion due to the rampant corruption and match-fixing that goes on in the sport.
This was the case in Malaysia recently when a goalkeeper named Ahmad Sharbinee Allawee lost his job on the Terengganu team after scoring an own-goal against Kedah in a Malaysian Cup match on September 1. Allawee has been accused of scoring the goal in his own net on purpose and now wants the chance to clear his name.
Allawee is a former goalie of the Malaysian national team and he was pulled out of the game by team manager Peter Butler immediately after letting in the goal when he fumbled a corner kick. The game with Kedah then ended in a 1-1 tie.
