849 Threatened? Slap!
Misjudgment is a part of football, and it is undeniable that the referee is a human being, not a machine that monitors the field from all angles.
In the past, there have been controversial decisions in many tournaments, but they are basically momentary judgments.
The goal-line case in England in '66, even if you look at the footage now, it is difficult for you to make the most correct judgment, this is controversial, but there is a reason for it, because no party has absolute evidence to overturn the referee's decision.
The hand of God of Maradona in 86, of course, it was very clear to watch the video, but the referee didn't see it at the time, because of his position and angle, which caused a misjudgment, and there was a reason.
In the 90 finals, Worrall's fake fall was a misjudgment, but in the same way, the player's fake fall to win a favorable penalty has become one of the difficult problems for the referee to decide.
But like this World Cup, Italy alone, there have been 3 effective goals that have been blown invalid, can Italy not say that this is a conspiracy?
There is also Totti was sentenced to fake fall, even if Moreno did not see Totti's physical contact with the South Korean player, he should also take into account that the player's physical fitness is close to drying up in overtime, he is more like he has premeditated and waited for the opportunity to send off the Italian player, the party Totti said that he expected the next thing from the referee's clear attitude towards the Korean players and Italian players before the game, although there is a suspicion of self-justification, but it is not unreasonable.
In the match between the South Korean team and Portugal, the referee's punishment scale is different, and the double standard can be seen all over the world.
The South Korean team is stronger than before, has made great progress, and at the same time plays at home, with a terrifying home atmosphere. But that doesn't mean they have to win. Strength is strength. Whether the game is fair and fair or not is a completely different matter.
Just like if the Chinese team and the Brazilian team are treated differently and suffer a bloodbath, can it be said that the Brazilian team is strong, so it can ignore the fairness of the referee's decision?
Moreover, the South Korean team itself is not a team that absolutely crushes Portugal and Italy.
The South Korea-Japan World Cup reached the top 8, and the controversy over the existence of zĂ i has attracted widespread attention. This is enough to make the image of this World Cup very disgraceful, because the very foundations of football are shaking: fairness!
In a big way, there is also the spirit of fair play sportsmanship that spreads everywhere.
Aldridge directly reprimanded South Korean reporters at the pre-match press conference, and even said to the world that he hated South Korea and insulted South Korea shamefully, which undoubtedly caused public anger, and in detail, it should be the anger of a country!
But the European media are all on Aldrich's side!
The coaches of other national teams are a bit of a man with their tails between their legs, even if it is the Spanish team that is about to meet the South Korean team, coach Camacho does not dare to say irresponsible things to the South Korean team. It seems, what to be afraid of.
But. Aldridge said it, and judging from the schedule, if England will meet South Korea, either in the final, or, in the 3rd or 4th place final.
It seemed like something that couldn't happen.
What happened at the press conference became urgent news and began to be broadcast around the world.
Fleet Street, of course, sang the praises of Aldrich, thinking that the young marshal was clear from wrong, daring, and seemed to be very smart.
The more explicit Aldridge says, the more often the game in England suffers a misjudgment or the referee's persecution, hehe, wouldn't FIFA shoot itself in the foot?
Doesn't it mean that they are suing the whole world, they are manipulating the game? Whoever dares to be dissatisfied, they will die!
Even if FIFA is bold, I am afraid that it will not dare to do this.
It's just that Aldridge stepped forward and spoke up, which seems to be a bit costly.
Naturally, the South Korean side broadcast this breaking news nationwide.
Aldridge and England instantly became South Korea's public enemies.
The World Cup organizing committee, South Korean representative Jung Mong-joon, publicly rebuked Aldrich for slandering South Korea and warned him to keep his mouth shut.
Aldrich's first reply to the Fleet Street reporter was: "Who's mouth can you stop?"
Blatter unilaterally warned the FA to restrain Aldridge's words and actions.
The FA is in a dilemma, on the one hand, they feel that Aldridge may really have "great wisdom" in doing this, so that England's game must be extremely fair, and no one dares to kill England, because Aldridge has spread the news all over the world with his reputation in the football circle, and fans all over the world are watching England's next game, if England is really persecuted by FIFA, it is estimated that angry fans around the world will go to dismantle FIFA, and Blatter's leadership team will have no credibility at all.
On the other hand, the FA feels that Aldridge's remarks have caused the relationship between England and South Korea to deteriorate rapidly, and the South Korean people have been gathering to protest and demand that all South Korean enterprises, but those who invest in English football, must withdraw their investment!
This affects the Premier League teams, as well as the England national team, and the sponsorship cooperation is linked to financial interests.
The FA was in a dilemma and did not go to talk to Aldridge, but Aldrich said directly to the outside world after getting the news: "I am a football coach, I love football, and work in this industry, I have a lot of friends in the football industry, but there is one person I hate, even the conversation and dialogue make me sick, that is, the brokers in the football circle, these people better not bother me, and Mr. Zheng Mengjun, I don't care how high your status in South Korea is, don't use sponsors to blackmail me, it is the Korean company that begs Millwall to sign a contract, Begging us to be our sponsors, now they're going to get out? Get out of here! Threatening me with monetary gain? It's the most idiotic coercion I've ever encountered! â
Aldridge's anger lingered.
Because Adam told him that two representatives from South Korean companies of Millwall's more than 50 sponsor partners had given them an ultimatum to make Aldrich rein in his words and actions in Asia.
Aldrich felt like he had run into a bunch of idiots.
Those Korean companies came to sponsor Millwall, nominally to send money to Millwall, but in fact they wanted to use Millwall's brand value to promote their enterprises to enter the international arena, take a step back, and also open up the European market.
It should be that they begged Millwall, not Millwall to treat them as guests, this relationship was not clear, thinking that being rich is an uncle, and if there is money, he can be an uncle, and he can be arrogant, Aldrich wants to use money to humiliate them.
In addition to being the vice president of FIFA, Zheng Mengzhun is also the son of a wealthy family of South Korea's Hyundai Group, and he has good connections in both the political and business circles of South Korea, which is his counterattack against Aldrich.
Aldrich doesn't mind that he is not uncommon for South Korean companies to withdraw their investments.
There will be other sponsors lining up to seek a partnership with Millwall.
In this world, it's not like you can't turn without South Korea!
As for Blatter, the chairman, Vice Chairman Zheng Mengzhun and others, Aldrich hated it from the bottom of his heart.
No one is a saint, but after all, there must be some positions and ethics.
Although Blatter's predecessor Havelange has a bad reputation and is not clean in terms of money, Havelange is a person who understands football and loves football, so as a Brazilian, he can award the World Footballer of the Year to Brazil's sworn enemy: Argentina's Maradona, even if Maradona does not appreciate it, and is famous for working against FIFA, but Havelange's position and ethics on this point are worthy of affirmation.
And people like Blatter and Zheng Mengzhun are full politicians, who even do not hesitate to destroy football for the sake of economic or political interests, which is unbearable for everyone who loves football.
The European media share the same hatred and stand on the side of the young marshal, and when it comes to the influence in the world, it is natural that the European influence is superior, not to mention that after the Italian game, the media on the American side simply and unabashedly denounced the lack of fairness in the game.
The media influence of the United States is naturally as strong as that of Europe, and American football is more like entertainment, so in the news reports of the football circle, the United States is even more unscrupulous, this unscrupulousness comes from not being interested in football politics, people regard it as entertainment, and the European football media still have interests to consider after all, if it is not for the World Cup to anger the Europeans, if Aldridge goes to war with South Korea, the European media may not be able to share the same spirit to give him a strong reputation.
In the process of rapid news spread, Aldrich's fame naturally soared again, this soar is not linked to professional achievements, the young marshal used to be mostly based on court results, but now, his personal image is more specific, love and hate, and not afraid to pierce the sky.
not only angrily reprimanded South Korea, but also slapped Zheng Mengzhun in the face!
Europeans applaud, while in Asia, the Japanese are the most happy.
Originally, the World Cup was held by Japan alone, but Zheng Mengzhun was inserted, and he also made some demonstrations to Japan, and the Japanese people were already unhappy with Zheng Mengzhun in their hearts.
With Japan out of the tournament and England continuing to play in Japan, England has significantly increased their fan base, which is the Japanese fans on home.
FIFA and South Korea could not take any substantial revenge on Aldridge, banned? Why? How many people in the football world around the world are discussing the controversy of the World Cup, if FIFA punishes Aldridge, it will not be a river of blood? FIFA dared to move Aldridge, it really pierced the sky of Europe, and when the sky fell, one Blatter and one Zheng Mengzhun were probably not enough to accompany the funeral.
In the process of this turmoil and escalation, the curtain of the World Cup 1/4 finals opened.
First up were Brazil and Sweden.
Coming to the quarterfinals, the Brazilian team is obviously more stable, but it has also changed the momentum of the crazy attack in the group stage, compared to the easy victory over Belgium, the Swedish team tried its best to play the ultimate defense, the Brazilian team is also deeply afraid, offensive football has some utilitarian signs, and finally won the game 2:1, taking the lead in advancing to the top 4.
After this game, the number one star of the Swedish team, Larsson, who is over 30 years old, suddenly announced his retirement from the Swedish national team! (To be continued......)
