After a year-long anti-corruption struggle in football, it finally came to an end on February 22, Beijing time. According to the latest report of well-known reporter Ran Xiongfei, the sentences of Li Tie, Chen Xuyuan, and Du Zhaocai have been confirmed, and one of them was sentenced to life imprisonment, which has aroused widespread attention and heated discussions among fans.
Ran Xiongfei revealed that Chen Xuyuan was involved in more than 80 million yuan in corruption, and was sentenced to 15 years in prison in the first instance. As the chairman of the Chinese Football Association, he was supposed to lead Chinese football, but he abused his power and seriously damaged the interests of football. I had the mistake of thinking that he didn't know anything about football and that taking office could lead to football going backwards. However, the truth about the fight against corruption reveals his greed and shame.
Recalling the scene of Chen Xuyuan dancing in the locker room after the Chinese men's football team broke through the top 40, that bright smile is no different from an innocent child. But upon learning the truth, the contrast is incredible. During his tenure as president of the Football Association, decisions such as name changes, salary restrictions, and suppression of naturalization brought the prosperous Chinese Super League to a low point. What he did was abhorrent!
Ran Xiongfei also revealed that Du Zhaocai was confirmed on multiple charges and sentenced to 13 years in prison. As the deputy director of the General Administration of Sports, he is the highest-ranking official in the anti-corruption campaign in sports. Ran Xiongfei described it as "shocking facts", which shows that his crime is heinous. Although the sentence is shorter than Chen's, it is still controversial.
Regarding Li Tie, who is concerned by fans, Ran Xiongfei revealed that he was sentenced to life imprisonment. Despite the fact that the offence is relatively minor and not a public official, the longest sentence is confusing. Li Tie has appealed and expressed his dissatisfaction. In my opinion, if Li Tiezhen is sentenced to life imprisonment, Du Zhaocai and Chen Xuyuan should be sentenced to heavier sentences, but as public officials, they know the law and break the law, and the crime will be increased by one degree!
The trio have broken football records in the first instance. In the last anti-corruption campaign, Zhang Jianqiang was sentenced to 12 years in prison. Today, Chen Xuyuan is 15 years old, Du Zhaocai is 13 years old, and Li Tie is sentenced to life imprisonment. The verdict has brought a strong shock and reflection to Chinese football.
The end of the fight against corruption does not mean ignoring football. On the contrary, lessons should be learned, supervision and system construction should be strengthened to ensure the healthy development of football. It is expected that Chinese football will come out of the trough and be full of vitality and hope. February** Dynamic Incentive Program
