The scandal first came to light as a consequence of doping investigations at Juventus; prosecutors in Turin ordered wiretaps of Juventus, based in that city. Transcripts of recorded telephone conversations were published in Italian newspapers; they suggested that during the 2004-05 season, Luciano Moggi, general manager of Juventus, had conversations with several people in Italian football that reveal illegal match fixing, gambling, and falsifying of financial accounts.

Luciano Moggi was involved in the influence of referee appointment... Juve matches would involve sympathic (or pro-Juve) referees.. If rival clubs have a player needing a yellow card to be suspended from the (following) match involving Juve, the referee would encouraged to book the player in that match. something like that.
the thing is, the investigation did NOT specify exactly which maatch was fixed.

What was said in the first answer. The verdict was that four teams in the league were found guilty. They are currently appealing the decision.
