Reds rout not probed by UEFA
(Soccer365.com) UEFA are not investigating Liverpool's 8-0 win over Besiktas in the Champions League for alleged suspicious betting patterns during the match.
German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung has claimed there was unusually high levels of betting on a high-score victory before the game, in which Yossi Benayoun scored a hat-trick.
However, UEFA say only one match, the InterToto Cup game between Makedonija and Cherno More in July, is being investigated by them.
The Liverpool v Besiktas clash is also not one of the matches that UEFA have passed on to the police because of suspicious betting patterns.
