Two more players could be involved in the Australian soccer match-fixing case that has already resulted in three Macarthur FC players being charged.
Midfielder Kearyn Baccus appeared in court Thursday to face charges relating to an illegal betting plot to receive yellow cards during A-League matches in return for payment.
He was arrested on May 17 along with team captain Ulises Davila and teammate Clayton Lewis. All three were granted bail and were suspended by Football Australia under its code of conduct regulations.
Documents produced in Campbelltown Local Court on Thursday revealed that two other players are accused of participating in a criminal group.
