Panama Player Drops Bomb: Teammate Accused of Match-Fixing After Own Goal
The whole thing started when Calderón couldn’t master a routine 90th-minute cross and, in a move that screams “I owe my alarm clock an apology,” deflected the ball into his own net. The goal completed Alianza FC’s comeback and, because sports are nothing if not dramatic, suspicion rippled through Panamanian football. Herrera left the pitch in a huff, and then, like any good reality show contestant, he named Calderón on social media, declaring that, in plain terms, “Jose Calderón is a match-fixer and there are more.” He eventually deleted one post, but other teammates joined the chorus of public accusations.
