His career came to an abrupt end after he was involved in a match fixing case during a U21 friendly match against Russia back in 2011 where he attempted to bribe two fellow U21 players Chiu Yu-Ming and Chan Cham-Hei to throw the match in return for payment. However the two declined Iu's offer and reported the case to the anti-corruption authorities.[2]
