What was Calciopoli?

When discussing The Calciopoli Scandal, it is important to distinguish that this is not a “match fixing scandal”. It is much more subtle than that. The main allegations of Calciopoli centred around Juventus sporting director Luciano Moggi. An individual who was not unfamiliar with scandal. Pressurising referees, influencing through a player agency and persuading the media. This is the story of Italian football’s lowest point.
