No matter what happens in the world, I would like to believe that "sports have no borders", after all, sports should not have borders, and to put it bluntly, sports should not be mixed with political mess.
Every World Championship is not only about winning gold and silver, but also about athletes from all over the world who represent their country and show their country's unique style in front of a global audience.
However, the experience of history, including what has just happened, has taught us that a series of words about "no borders" have become jokes——— from Meng Wanzhou and Qian Xuesen being locked up for years in order to return to China, to the ban on Russian athletes in many sports after the war in Ukraine.
Including this Messi incident——— it was originally a commercial game for everyone to have fun, just like going to the cinema to watch a commercial movie of "Avatar 2" Tuyile, but it had to be mixed with political content by the organizers when negotiating the contract, which turned the game that should have allowed Messi and the fans who came to watch the game to achieve "win win" into a hotbed of farce and online violence.
And I'll say it again: Messi didn't play, but went to Japan to play; Suarez also only plays in Japan, not in Hong Kong, why haven't I seen bloggers on various social platforms upload their own ** tearing Suarez's jersey? Why hasn't anyone expressed their disappointment with Suarez?
Messi, like Suarez, is just a footballer, and he participates in such commercial matches for fun and to make money by the way, because there is no pressure on the record at all. Both of them are great footballers in my heart, how can the fans treat them differently like this? To put it bluntly, it's still those keyboard warriors who don't know the truth to be black for the sake of black. It is very difficult to learn to look at a thing from a rational, objective and as comprehensive perspective as possible, but playing with verbal violence is a thing that does not use your brain, because it is enough to think about the problem with the lower body, and you can't use the upper body at all.
I didn't deprive fans of the right to express their disappointment, but what to be disappointed with those who didn't buy tickets to watch the game? Aren't those people the narrow-minded keyboard warriors I talked about earlier?
The truth has been made clear, in fact, as early as the ticket sales stage, it is uncertain whether Messi can play in the Hong Kong game. To put it bluntly, those viewers who buy tickets will have a considerable probability of suffering a disappointing ending if they buy tickets, which is the same as falling in love, you choose to be with that person, you have to accept the uncontrollability brought by the part of this person that you don't understand about the ending of this relationship.
The principle is as simple as that, it's just that many people don't understand it one by one. Those fans who impulsively tore Messi's jersey, you just have to wait to regret the original impulse
