The Taboga Case

In November 2013, Dominique Taboga claimed he was blackmailed by former Kapfenberger teammate Sanel Kuljić to fix matches forcing Kuljić to be taken into police custody. A few days later Taboga admitted that he tried to convince four other players to manipulate a match during season 2012/13. Taboga was eventually banned for life from playing, refereeing, club official, and player agent.
