CCTV chief producer Geng Zhimin broke the Li Tie match-fixing case.
In the past season, Li Tie became the head coach of Hebei Huaxia Happiness halfway.
In the case of not being favored, Li Tie led the team, to everyone's surprise, winning eight consecutive victories, defeating eight teams including Wuhan Zall, Beijing Institute of Technology, and Hunan Xiangtao, so as to qualify for the Chinese Super League.
Dalian Yifang Club, which was squeezed out of the qualification of the Chinese Super League, constantly complained to the Football Association that Huaxia Happiness's game was boring, but it never attracted the attention of the Football Association. As Du Zhaocai said frankly in front of the CCTV anti-corruption propaganda film: It has become a routine to send money and goods and dredge things.
This season, plus Huaxia Happiness itself, a total of 9 teams were involved in this match-fixing incident, and more than half of the teams in the Chinese League that year were involved, which is unprecedented.
According to Shi Xueqing, the former general manager of Dalian Yifang Club, Li Tie's Huaxia Happiness had two ways to "buy ball": one is to invest heavily in the opponent's team and let them release water in the game, such as the main players who have no injury problems in the snow;The second is to pay the players directly and instruct them to avoid the game.
As a result, Li Tie set the largest match-fixing case in the history of Chinese football.
It is precisely in the Chinese football world that as long as there is money, salted fish can turn over, and monkeys can also be kings.
