The European police agency has revealed that a wide-ranging investigation into match fixing has uncovered more than 380 suspicious matches.
The games include Word Cup and European Championship qualifiers and two Champions League games.
Europol's chief Rob Wainwright said the investigation uncovered "match fixing activity on a scale we have not seen before."
Wainwright revealed the probe uncovered around £7m in betting profits and £1.27m in bribes to players and officials and has already led to several prosecutions.
The investigation identified about 425 corrupt officials, players and serious criminals in 15 countries.
Wainwright also stated that the involvement of organised crime "highlights a big problem for the integrity of football in Europe."
It was not immediately clear how many of the matches mentioned have been revealed in previous match fixing investigations at a national level in countries including Germany and Italy.
