Macarthur FC captain Ulises Davila appeared in a Sydney court amid allegations of his involvement in an A-League spot-fixing scandal. Davila, along with teammates Clayton Lewis and Kearyn Baccus, was arrested on charges of manipulating yellow cards during matches in exchange for money.
The trio is accused of following instructions from a South American figure to deliberately influence yellow cards during games for financial gain. The charges were brought against them following police raids at various locations.
In a recent court session, the magistrate reduced Davila’s bail reporting conditions from twice a week to once a week. The players are expected to return to court for further proceedings at later dates as the case continues to unfold.
