Hero of the Penalty Area

Chapter 89 Covering the Sky with One Hand (Second Guarantee)

On the second day, there were doubts about the game in a number of Italian media. They think the referee's problem in this game is very serious.

Especially in the first half, several key disputes and penalties were very problematic.

"...Sweden Svensson's penalty can be made into a'collection of all the mistakes a referee can commit', which can be used as a negative teaching material for those new referees. The penalty for offside kick is unnecessary, Chen The hero's first header goal should also be valid, and Chris' handball before the end of the first half is also undoubtedly... But all of these, Svensson made a mistake!"

"It is not difficult for a referee to make a mistake in a game, but it is difficult to make mistakes again and again..."

"Svensson is the chief referee trained by UEFA. If nothing else, he will appear on the list of law enforcement for the World Cup next year... He is one of several young referees supported by Platini after he came to power... But there were so many low-level errors in this game. I really don’t know if this will affect his qualifications in the World Cup..."

"After the game, the coaches of both sides refused to talk about the referee's issue. Obviously they both knew that this issue was very sensitive and could not just talk about it casually. Not to say it does not mean that there is no problem. After the game, we analyzed it and Swenson's penalty was There are many doubts, such obvious partiality, it is really very rare..."

"...Dear readers, I suddenly want to revisit you a piece of history, a piece of history that is not too far away. On May 6, 2009, in the second round of the Champions League semi-final, Chelsea played against Barcelona at home. The referee of that game was Norwegian Henning..."

"I'm not talking about how Platini is, I'm just stating the fact that... the referee in this game is leaning over the home team Lyon, which is far beyond the normal'home court advantage' category, and at the same time Platini declared before the game that he supported Lyon as a Frenchman. During the game, he went to the scene to watch this game that was neither a focus battle nor a strong dialogue. Yes, I am just stating that A fact..."

"Since Platini came to power, some of UEFA's practices have caused a lot of controversy. Can we have some kind of association? No, we can't, because we lack evidence. Even if it is such a scene, a discerning person will know it at first glance. There is still a lack of evidence for the game in question..."

...

On the surface, the media seems to be saying that this matter has nothing to do with Platini, but as long as the IQ is normal, it can be seen that the media is ironic.

The classic that Chen Yingxiong said in an interview after the game also appeared on newspapers and TV.

"The hero said that his celebration was a tribute to Platini, so let us pay tribute to Platini in the same way!"

"This is really ironic, I don't think even Platini himself would think that Chen Yingxiong is really thanking him, right? Unless there is something wrong with his brain..."

"... All of our Naples players dedicate the victory of this game to the beloved President Platini, I believe he will be very happy! ... Because it is his appearance and pre-match expression that inspired us, let We suffocated our energy and won the game despite very unfair treatment..."

The host of an Italian TV station had a smirk when he cut back after broadcasting the footage of Chen Yingxiong's interview.

"Yes, we are also very grateful to Mr. Platini. Because he showed us a very exciting game! If not, this game is just an ordinary group stage. Because of him, This game has become a game that can still establish a place in the history of the Champions League for many years to come. It is a real classic battle! A textbook that tells us how to win even when all the referees are against you. Such a game! Thank you, Mr. Platini!"

And the British media, which has always liked to join in the fun, will naturally not let go of this good opportunity. Because Platini has always been displeased with Premier League teams, he racked his brains after taking office and all the methods he came up with were aimed at the Premier League teams. The two sides have been grieving for a long time. How could the British media miss this perfect opportunity to attack Platini?

So the "Sun" first launched an attack, thinking that Platini was behind the game, and his statement before the game was really too suspicious.

The Telegraph carefully analyzed Platini's performance in the stands. Especially after a few key penalties and goals, his expression changed, and a conclusion was drawn from it-"...when Lyon benefited, Platini had a relaxed smile on his face, and when Naples scored After the ball, his face was as cold as frost...What does this mean? I don't think I need to be too clear, right?"

"UEFA should thoroughly investigate this game, especially focusing on whether there has been any private transaction between their chairman Mr. Platini and the referee Svensson..."

What the British media said in the eyes of the media of other countries is simply bold, unscrupulous, and directly scaring people to death.

But this is their style. They even dared to expose the scandal of the England coach before such an important game as the World Cup, which caused the England team to become distracted and eventually defeated Germany. As for criticizing the England Football Association, they have done more, and they have even reached the point where the England Football Association will punish them and not allow the relevant TV stations to broadcast the England national team...

So they are not afraid of any power at all, what about UEFA? Such a powerful opponent command aroused their greater desire and interest in survival.

※※※

In the face of crazy hype and censure from the media, UEFA’s official statement is very "official":

"There is no evidence that this game is shady again."

Just such a sentence answered all the media's inquiries.

And Platini’s own statement is: “Svensson’s sentence does have some problems, but as a young referee, such mistakes are inevitable. As for the accusations about myself... I personally welcome them very much. My supervision, I don’t have any problems, I don’t know Svensson. And I have to say again, the referee’s question has nothing to do with my pre-match statement. Even if I do it again, I will insist on The identity of a Frenchman supports Lyon because they need support at that time. I respect UEFA’s decision. There is no evidence to prove that there is any problem with this game, so there is no need to initiate an investigation process, and disputes about this game. It should stop here. I don’t want excessive media involvement and hype that will affect Svensson’s private life. We have to think about what we have learned from the past. The referee Anders Frisk, also from Sweden... I warn the media, Don't overstate this matter, don't conspiracy, UEFA has very severe penalties for those unprovoked accusations against referees!"

He said that the Swedish referee has an allusion. He said that in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League in the 2004-2005 season, Barcelona played against Chelsea led by Mourinho. In the game, Frisk played Chelsea’s Forward Drogba sent off with a red card. This penalty also became a turning point in that game. In the end, Barcelona defeated Chelsea 2:1 at home. After the game, Mourinho attributed the loss to the referee. He claimed to have seen Barcelona officials enter the referee's lounge during the intermission, which can show that Barcelona and the referee colluded.

As a result, Mourinho's remarks caused an uproar and pushed Frisk to the forefront. After the game, the media kept going to Friesk’s door to besiege him, and he also claimed to have received death threats from some Chelsea fans by e-mails.

All this made him overwhelmed and finally decided to retire early.

Since Frisk is a very well-known international referee in Sweden, his retirement caused a lot of repercussions.

Many referees were shocked by his retirement and slammed Mourinho's groundless accusations. UEFA is also considering setting some severe penalties for attacking referees. Attacking and questioning referees will be strictly prohibited.

So many people were afraid to discuss and question the referee casually.

Platini is turning over the old accounts at this time and taking this incident out to tell everyone, of course, to remind everyone-do not blindly accuse and criticize Swenson in pursuit of news effects, be careful that he repeats the mistakes of his compatriot Frisk and choose Retire early. You know that it is not easy for UEFA to train a good referee now...

At the same time, he was also on the sidelines, telling those who were plotting wrongdoing-now it is not before, you can accuse the referee casually, even if you are wronged, you are not allowed to criticize the referee in private. If you have any questions, you can find UEFA. If UEFA says it's okay, then it's really okay! You are not allowed to discuss it in private!

Faced with such a rogue response, everyone feels unwilling, but you still have no problem.

Because they really lack evidence...

In the match report submitted after the game, Svensson admitted that he had made some wrong judgments.

This is tantamount to taking all the responsibility on oneself, and it is impossible to question Platini at all. At best, it was a game where the young referee performed poorly due to inexperience.

And because Naples won the ball after all, and Lyon also won the right to qualify for the group, both clubs have a quiet attitude. If the two parties do not cooperate, the media will not be able to make hype even if they want to.

Discussions and reports on this matter have gradually diminished.

Everything seems to be calm.

But is it really so?

No one knows how ugly the face of the UEFA ruler is when he sees Chen Yingxiong saying that he will dedicate the goal and the victory of the game to Platini...

Being slapped in the face and being so ridiculed by the other party, do you think Platini can swallow this breath?

impossible!

Therefore, this matter is definitely not finished!

In a few days it will be the draw ceremony for the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Cup knockout stages, when the time comes...huh!
