Sports.Biz reports that during the tournament, experts monitored betting markets and all 104 matches in real-time. Analysis of the data revealed no indication of result manipulation.
To monitor the situation, FIFA collected betting activity reports, information from working group members, and reports of potential violations. All data was analyzed and shared with organizations involved in monitoring the integrity of competitions.
Representatives from the US, Canada, and Mexico football confederations and federations, as well as the FTB, Interpol, the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, the Council of Europe, Sportradar, the International Betting Integrity Association, and other organizations participated in the working group's work.
FIFA intends to continue cooperation with these organizations in future tournaments, including the 2027 Women's World Cup.
