On the one hand, there is the hustle and bustle of the world football event, and on the other hand, the hustle and bustle of the former head coach of the national football team being investigated.
What was supposed to come still came—Li Tie was investigated.
The boots, which had been hanging for about half a month, finally fell to the ground.
According to news from the website of the Hubei Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision on November 26, Li Tie, the former head coach of the Chinese National Men's Football Team, is suspected of serious violations of the law.
At present, the World Cup is in full swing, and Li Tie's name appears in the message area of many World Cup news.
Some netizens ridicule, some are ironic, and some "hate iron but not steel".
Of course, this kind of emotion is not only imposed on Li Tie, but spreads the reflection on Chinese football.
On one side is the excitement of the world football event, and on the other is the excitement of the investigation of the former head coach of the national football team. The collision of these two types of excitement hits people's hearts directly.
In contrast, the enthusiasm of others is completely opposite to ours. We must learn from the painful experience and make up our minds to eliminate all the disadvantages that hinder the development of football in our country.
In particular, in the ongoing World Cup, Asian football such as Saudi Arabia, Japan, and Iran not only played wonderful games and excellent results, but also played hard-working football spirits, and repeatedly broke through the inherent impression of "Asian football is not good". It is enough to prove the previous fallacies.
Indeed, modern football needs business to provide living water, maintain normal operation and continuous prosperity, but it must not go to the other extreme: business becomes the protagonist, and football becomes a pure money-making tool.
For the vast majority of football audiences, football is a hobby and a life.
As the carrier of football, football should be fair and transparent first, and it cannot be manipulated in the dark and reduced to a profit-making machine for some people.
In fact, it is not difficult to find clues about Li Tie being investigated this time.
Prior to this, Li Tie was exposed as the head coach of the national football team, he also manipulated Wuhan Zall, and caused a salary dispute.
After getting out of the circle with his "anti-criticism" controversial remarks, Li Tie quickly updated his social platform and embedded multiple commercial brands with pictures. What's even more amazing is that two of the posters P dropped the logo of the national football sponsor and put The logo of the competing brand of the national football sponsor.
It has to be said that Li Tie can be regarded as a master of fiddle with traffic, with a very keen business acumen and media awareness, but this kind of cleverness seems to be used improperly.
Freezing three feet does not happen in a day. When a person doesn't care much about fame and only blindly pursues profit, it is easy to break through the bottom line and fall into the abyss without knowing it.
It should be pointed out that football corruption is not only an economic issue, it does not only destroy market rules, and it does not only hurt business ethics. The deeper wound is that it destroys the ecology of Chinese football development.
Taking the "manipulation of players and games" exposed in football before as an example, it is very likely that the incompetent will be buried and the talented will be buried and lost.
This "general ledger" is not so easy to calculate, and it is also irreparable for the loser.
Of course, corruption in the football field is essentially that power has not been effectively supervised.
An industry has an industry circle, and it is not easy for the outside world to see the internal twists and turns, but can the commercial operation of football be presented to the public more by establishing clearer rules and a more transparent mechanism, at least Let the fans become an important force for supervision and reporting?
Sitting and watching anglers are only envious of fish.
The hot search for Li Tie's investigation was interspersed with the excitement of the World Cup, which also ignited public expectations.
I hope that Li Tie's investigation this time is a distant "shot" for the World Cup.
1.4 billion people are looking forward to that moment, and we all know that the road is very long, but only by walking steadily and cleanly can we stand upright and firmly in the forest of world football.
