Messi seems to have chosen to fight his Chinese fans to the end and is still unwilling to apologize. His actions have caused serious damage to the Argentine national team and could lead to his abandonment! Fans expressed their support for the Chinese Football Association!
Although China is not rich, it has a large Chinese population, and the economy has been quite prosperous in recent years, and there is a lot of spare money at their disposal, which makes many people want to make a fortune in China. NBA stars come to China in the offseason to make money, and world soccer stars like to go around China and get big rewards.
Not long ago, Cristiano Ronaldo completed his eighth trip to China, but unfortunately he was unable to play due to injury. Although Ronaldo explained the reason why he failed to appear and took the initiative to refund the fans' ticket fees and accommodation costs, he was still criticized by many fans.
Next, Messi and his Miami team also came to China. Without Messi, there is little hope of making money in China. Although it was the Miami team's trip to China, fans used to call it "Messi's trip to China". Lionel Messi and Miami arrived in Hong Kong, China, but attracted fans from all over the world to catch a glimpse of their favorite stars. There was even a young man who spent more than 5,000 yuan to make a special trip from Xinjiang to Hong Kong, China.
On the first day of training, the stadium was packed. In the official match on the second day, the stadium was even full, which fully illustrated Messi's huge popularity. However, to the regret of the fans, Messi sat on the bench from the beginning with an unhappy expression on his face. Until the end of the game, fans who liked him did not see Messi playing. This made many fans feel very angry, thinking that Messi deceived them. Even if Messi is injured, at least he should come out and say a few words. Not only did Messi not play, but he didn't even have the opportunity to interact with the fans, which made it impossible for the fans to forgive him.
Three days later, Messi behaved completely differently in Japan than he did when he was in Hong Kong, not only did he play well, but he also had a very pleasant interaction with the fans. The contrast between Messi's behavior in the three days before and after made Chinese fans have a great disgust with him. Some fans who still have hope for Messi would have liked him to come out and clarify or, like Cristiano Ronaldo, to apologize to the Chinese fans, but he didn't. For Messi, an apology is what he refuses!
After Miami's trip to China, the Argentine national team plans to travel to China in March, in Hangzhou and Beijing. When Messi defaulted on the game in Hong Kong, many Chinese fans suggested that the Chinese Football Association cancel its cooperation with the Argentine national team. ** Personnel Yuan Jia said that the Hong Kong Football Association and the Chinese Football Association are in an equal relationship, so the Chinese Football Association will not cancel the cooperative relationship with the Argentine side. However, Yuan Jia may have forgotten that although the Chinese Football Association and the Hong Kong Football Association are in an equal relationship, they are closely related.
In the face of Messi's arrogant behavior, the Chinese Football Association could not condone it, and they directly canceled the cooperation with the Argentine national team. The Argentine national team's trip to China ended in failure, and they also suffered heavy losses and lost a huge opportunity. The Argentine national team lost the opportunity to make money, so it is natural to put the blame on Messi. It is not ruled out that Messi will be abandoned by the Argentine national team, after all, Argentina has already won the World Cup. For the Argentine national team, making money is the most important thing these days.
This time, fans have sided with the Chinese Football Association, believing that the Chinese Football Association's approach is very correct, Messi's behavior should not be connived, and he must pay the price for his arrogance and rudeness!
