Wolfgang, I agree with you about injured players in football, where the 'unwritten rule' exists for the well-being and early treatment of the injured player, but that's not the same thing as match-fixing by deliberately not winning. Maybe I was unclear in my first post - surely the essential essence of sport is that competitors - all competitors - are there to win and make every effort to do so? Or am I being too simplistic? :0)
