Chapter 615 Eleven Bans
The views of the media and fans, no matter how vigorously carried out, are of little significance to the final settlement of the incident. Because the decision on how to deal with this [fight incident] is still firmly in the hands of the officials of FIFA.
Surprisingly, the reaction of the 'officials' was also very fast - FIFA President Blatter issued a statement less than five hours after the end of the game that the Football Federation would hold a hearing of the [fighting incident] at 10:30 a.m. the next day, and immediately after the hearing, it would announce the people involved. The result of punishment!
This news is beyond the imagination of many people.
It is not beneficial for the madman Li to continue to develop according to this trend.
Before, many people were guessing that if FIFA chose to protect the madman Lee and the Argentine team, it was likely to postpone this [court fight] that caused a sensation in the whole world with the usual word 'drag' until the end of the World Cup in South Africa. At that time, no matter how serious the punishment for the madman Li is, the loss of the Argentine team will be much smaller. Even if the madman Li is banned for one consecutive year, it will not affect the World Cup of the Blues and White!
But now, FIFA is abnormal and has to make a final conclusion about the incident in such a hurry, which is worthy of many people's deep thinking.
Is Blatter going to suppress the Argentine team?
This seems unlikely.
After all, the whole world knows that the Argentine Football Association Grondona is Blatter's closest ally. The two are completely tied to the same interest group, both of them. If the two of them turn against each other because of this, then the sensational shock caused by world football is definitely much more serious than the current fight!
The development of things is beyond the imagination of some people.
... After FIFA announced the handling of the fight, the media and fans around the world began a new round of discussion, and there was only one central issue in this discussion - whether the madman Li would have a chance to appear on the edge of the stadium of the World Cup in South Africa in the next game. Question mark
The picture newspaper with the largest circulation in Germany is not optimistic about the fate of the madman Li.
They wrote in the special article on the front page of the second day: "We all know that before the official start of the World Cup, FIFA and the South Africa World Cup Organizing Committee put forward the slogan of zero tolerance for violence on the stadium. We believe that this should never be a false declaration. On the field, everyone He should be treated fairly. Whether he is a player or the head coach, the existence of the privileged class is an unreasonable phenomenon. No matter why the madman Li punches, it is a kind of violence. We need a healthy football environment. From this point of view, FIFA has no reason to 'forgive' the madman Li. "."
In order to make his point of view convincing, Bild matched the article with five or six carefully selected pictures, all of which were screenshots of the fight. On the picture, the madman Li's face was ferocious, and a punched the Mexican coach Carragado's face.
In fact, the attitude of the Germans is not beyond the expectations of the outside world.
Because according to the South Africa World Cup match schedule, they will meet the Argentine team in the next game. If the madman Li can escape the punishment and stand on the side of the field to command the game, it will be much more difficult for [Yerman chariot] to cross the quarter-finals.
You should know that so far, the German team led by [tactical master] Loe has never been able to take advantage of the madman Lee. Not to mention the friendly match, the European Cup final at the Ernst-Hapel Stadium in 2008 alone is enough to make the whole Germany regard the crazy Li as a big trouble!
At this time, many media from other countries also joined in.
The Times of England believes that FIFA's rapid and positive response to the brawl is "a signal to maintain the fair and order of the stadium. We are extremely looking forward to the successful resolution of this matter... No excuse can hide the ugliness of violence."
And the tone of Catalonia's World Sport and Every Day Sport, which have always been not very harmonious with the madman Li, is almost the same this time - "The previous FIFA principle of zero tolerance for violence on the court must be implemented to the end..."
Only the view of the French newspaper "Team" is biased towards the Argentine side.
Team News believes that "FIFA should probably take into account the cause of the incident and deal with the so-called brawl from a more humane perspective. No matter from that point of view, the whole process of the incident cannot be simply covered with the word 'court violence'..."
The reason why the views between the media of various countries is so different is very simple - they have withdrawn from countries that have no hope to compete for the Hercules Cup, and are more willing to deal with this matter with a tolerant attitude, because the madman Li has no threat to their team, and they are more willing to watch such a madman lead the team. Play a classic game, and those countries that still retain the hope of winning the championship, on the contrary, they absolutely do not want to meet an Argentine team with a madman Li. If they can take advantage of this matter to drive this devil-like guy out of the stadium, why not?
............The next morning.
The weather is still clear, and there is no wind at all.
After 10 o'clock, more than 400 reporters had gathered in the front square of the office building of the South African Football Association, squeezing the whole gate. FIFA's hearing on the coach's fight between Argentina and Mexico will soon be held in this building.
An hour later, whether the madman Li can continue his World Cup journey will also reveal the suspense here.
Many people believe that this hearing has an unpredictable impact on the trend of the next World Cup.
Perhaps, the result of the meeting will directly change the ownership of the 2010 World Cup champion in South Africa!
10:25.
The black high-end business MPV Mercedes-Benz R250 came from a distance. Under the guidance of the security guard who maintained order at the scene, the car drove to the door of the building, and then the door opened. Li, a madman wearing the sign named Tyrannosaurus Rex sunglasses, stepped out of the carriage... The reporters suddenly went crazy and gathered like a tide. Come here.
10 minutes ago, Mexico's head coach, Aguirre, had entered the building with one of the parties, Caralgado, and now the arrival of the madman Lee means that the hearing will officially begin soon.
"Mr. Li, madman, do you think you can escape today?"
"If you are banned for a long time, will you continue to stay and coach the Argentine team?"
"Can you say a few words to the fans who support you?"
"Madman Mr. Li, do you regret your behavior at that time now?"
"..."
Li Tongfan was surrounded by the crowd, like a barge on the sea roaring in a storm, which was in danger of being destroyed at any time. There was no expression on his face, and his eyes were hidden under the black lenses. In the face of crazy questions, no one knew what the madman Li was thinking... Soon, the four big men in suits and leather shoes skillfully separated the group of reporters and protected Li Tongfan into the hall until he was dressed in black. The man in the windbreaker finally disappeared from sight, and the crazy reporters stopped taking photos with regret... The next thing was to wait.
Except for a few, most people did not get permission to enter the interview.
The waiting time is unusually slow. Although it is only an hour, the reporters seem to have been waiting for a century.
When the hands of the clock finally pointed to 11:30, the turning door of the building began to move again, the crowd scratched, and countless cameras were aimed at there... The first person in sight was still the madman Li!
At this time, the madman Li had taken off the Tyrannosaurus Rex sunglasses on his face.
His expression was relaxed, and there was a meaningless smile on the corners of his mouth. When the swarming reporters saw this scene, they had already understood a lot. A German reporter muttered angrily, "Is this really not fucking good news?"
............July 3rd, 12:00 noon.
The final punishment result of FIFA's brawl in the eighth final between Argentina and Mexico on July 2 soon appeared on FIFA's official website and was quickly reprinted by the media to fans all over the world.
This is a very severe penalty result, which stunned many people - madman Li was banned from leading the team to eleven football games and fined £100,000.
However, to the satisfaction of all Argentines, these eleven bans are not consecutively implemented - during the World Cup in South Africa, Crazy Lee only had one suspension. Only in the quarterfinals, Crazy Lee will have to appear in the stands as a spectator; and the remaining ten bans will be in the South. It will not take effect until the end of the non-world finals.
According to FIFA's official explanation of the final penalty, the eleven bans include two aspects - one is an immediate suspension caused by a red card, and ten additional penalties are suspended!
FIFA particularly emphasized that the content of the eleven bans includes both national team matches and club matches. That is to say, even after the end of the World Cup, the madman Li terminated his contract with Argentina and turned to coach a club team, he could only officially appear in front of the coaching bench after the end of ten games.
In this respect, FIFA's decision is very fair.
For any head coach, eleven bans are a punishment serious enough to be recorded in the history of world football. From this perspective, Li, a madman who has set countless records, has set an extremely different world record in this alternative way!
