37. The first point of the Super League

The presence of Tao Wentao and Xiao Yunfan has greatly strengthened the Longteng team's backcourt running ability, and the defensive ability has also been greatly improved. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and the same physical problems are very serious Guangzhou Evergrande in the last few minutes can not run, in addition to the use of Diamanti peripheral long-range shot and Rene's impact, Guangzhou Evergrande does not have much way to break through the door of the Longteng team, and finally when the referee Li Jun blew the whistle at the end of the game, the score was also fixed at 1:1.

Guangzhou Evergrande were a bit disappointed to get a draw, while Longteng picked up their first points in the Chinese Super League.

In the face of this draw, the outside world still gave a lot of praise, and now it is rare to be able to draw Evergrande at the home of Guangzhou Evergrande, not to mention a promoted polo team like Jiangcheng Longteng, the average age of the Longteng team can get a point at the home of Guangzhou Evergrande to leave a very good impression on many Chinese fans who pay attention to the Chinese Super League.

As an insider, what he pays attention to is the performance of the players in the Longteng team, especially Lin Feng.

As the most brilliant player in the first half of this game, everyone agreed that Lin Feng was on the right path. This season, after the loss of a large number of midfield personnel in the Longteng team, everyone looked down on the Longteng team, but after Lin Feng had a good performance in the AFC Champions League, he still played at a very high level in the face of the hegemon Guangzhou Evergrande in the Chinese Super League, and his ability to cover the whole midfield can be said to be the biggest reason why the Longteng team took away a point from Guangzhou Evergrande.

This player from the right side of the midfield to the middle of the midfield has reflected a rare midfield organizational ability, although he has a slight lack of confrontation ability, physical fitness can not keep up with some weaknesses, but he is the most modern midfielder in China, can attack and defend, can go up and down, the role is completely comparable to those in the Super League foreign aid midfield, compared to his age of only 20 years old, he still has this very big potential.

At the same time, everyone also appreciated Zhang Sheng's ability to adjust the players, and after a few players, he trained a few more players, which has become a landmark achievement of the Longteng team, according to everyone: "If you go on like this, the Longteng team will really become the talent training base of the Chinese Super League." ”

Of course, this is also related to Zhang Bing's commentary in this game: "A 1:1 score, the players who scored the goal were the former players of the Longteng team and the current players of the Longteng team, haha, in general, this game was the victory of the Longteng team in the end." ”

So much so that some netizens left a message on the Internet: "The meaning of the Longteng team is, come, come to hurt each other, come to dig my players, I have a lot of good players." ”

Immediately, some fans and netizens replied: "Don't worry, I'll poach you in the middle of the season, see how arrogant you are!"

After this game, the Longteng team returned to Jiangcheng, they will usher in their first home AFC Champions League game in midweek, compared to the previous Super Cup appetizer, this is also the first official home game of the Longteng team this season, and this is also the first time that Jiangcheng ushered in the highest level of club competition in Asia, before the game, Jiangcheng's ball market has become extremely hot.

However, the hot ball market has also brought a lot of pressure to the Dragon Club, especially the emergence of a large number of scalpers, so that fans love and hate, love is that the teams they support play beautifully, and hate that some key games can't buy many loose tickets at all, and most of the loose tickets are snatched up by the scalpers as soon as they come out, and fans can only find scalpers outside the stadium and online to buy tickets at high prices.

Scalpers in football have always been a headache, not only in China, but also in the professional and super regular Premier League. Teams with large fan bases, including Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal, have been manipulated by scalpers. Some tickets, which have an actual face value of less than £70, are quoted by scalpers at £160 each for the back-of-goal stands and £175 each for the sideline stands. Even some season tickets and box tickets, scalpers can get their hands on them.

The most ferocious was the 2015-2016 Premier League season, when it was revealed that more than 25,000 tickets had been sold from unofficial sources. The total value of all these second-hand Manchester United tickets is around £8 million, but the total price of these tickets is only around £1.5 million if they are purchased through official channels. At the same time, Crystal Palace has disqualified 375 members due to acts such as ticket fraud.

In fact, as early as 1994, the unauthorized sale of football tickets was listed as illegal in the United Kingdom, but the illegal sale of football tickets is a huge business, involving tens of millions of pounds a year, and there are a large number of operational criminal syndicates operating such businesses in the United Kingdom and overseas.

In China, scalpers are not far behind, whether it is Guangzhou Evergrande, the overlord of the Chinese Super League, or Guizhou people in the gold medal ball market, or even some small clubs, scalpers are also repeatedly banned. So much so that when a reporter interviewed Guangzhou Evergrande fans and asked them to give advice to the club, the first sentence of many fans was: "Can scalpers stop being so rampant?"

In the early days, domestic scalpers mostly bought tickets by queuing up and buying tickets at low prices from fan groups, and later most clubs opened their own websites to support online ticket purchases, and the use of the system to swipe tickets has also become a means.

One of the most difficult to manage is the scalping behavior of the fan groups themselves. In order to win over fans, most clubs will issue some low-cost tickets to some die-hard fan groups, and some fans who want to make a fortune will secretly sell tickets to scalpers at the difference in the market, and scalpers will sell them to fans who come to watch at a higher price.

The Longteng team found this situation in the previous game, the previous FA Cup against Guangzhou Evergrande, the FA Cup finals have had similar reselling, and the Longteng club also reported the matter to the Public Security Bureau, after the full force of the public security, they dug out some people who resold tickets, and these people were also prosecuted and sued.

After being promoted to the Chinese Super League this season, the Longteng team began to vigorously promote the membership system, while reducing the supply of internal tickets, the senior executives above the general manager level of the Longteng Group originally had two hospitality tickets per person, and now they can only apply for one, and the chairman level of the regional company, if you need a ticket for official reception, you can only buy it out of your own pocket. Other employees within the group are limited to two tickets per person.

At the same time, in order to facilitate the handling of members, Longteng Club also cooperated with the Jiangcheng City Government to bundle the members of the Longteng team with Jiangchengtong, and Longteng's membership card realized the verification of tickets for watching the game by mobile phone, membership points or discounts, taking the subway, taking the bus, convenience store consumption and other discounts.

The most important move is to crack down on the ticket purchase channels of various third-party websites, such as Taobao, 58.com and other bulk tickets to check at any time, once found, contact and communicate with the other party to jointly crackdown, and do each ticket corresponds to an ID card.

Before this game, the 2w tickets released were sold out in half a day, even if the scalpers were hit hard, but the lack of tickets was the reason, so before the game, there were still a bunch of fans gathered outside the stadium in the hope of buying refunds, of course, such opportunities are too few.

The opponent of the Longteng team in this game is Western Sydney Wanderers, and they are very familiar with this team Zhang Sheng, of course, the Zhang Sheng in the previous life, because this team is known as the biggest dark horse in the history of the AFC Champions League.

Western Sydney Wanderers, based in the Western Sydney region of New South Wales, Australia, is a newcomer to the Australian Super League, which was officially established in April 2012, and surprisingly, the team was "born" from the local community football team. Before the team was formed, Western Sydney did not have a decent football team, it was a few loose community team organizations, and it was on the basis of these community teams that the Western Sydney Wanderers were built, and many community teams were united to form the Western Sydney Wanderers. Due to their community-based origin, Western Sydney Wanderers were also fully involved by local fans when they were founded, with their team name, logo and jersey style voted for by local fans, even the home stadium, Parramat Stadium, which was chosen by the fans.

The team comes from the community, which means that it has a wide fan base, and the team currently has a membership system, and the number of members has reached 17,000, and their home stadium Parramat Stadium can only accommodate 19,000 people, so basically every home stadium can be full, and the stadium atmosphere and attendance are among the best in the Australian Super League.

Every team participating in the Australian Super League must obtain a qualification certificate issued by the Australian Football Association, and in order to obtain the qualification certificate, it must meet many conditions such as attendance, investment, and stadium conditions. At the end of the 2011-2012 season, Gold Coast United were disqualified for various reasons, leaving only nine teams in the AFL that had to be replenished. After being screened by the Australian Football Association, Western Sydney Wanderers, who are supported by many Australian football legends, such as Cahill and Moore, are fortunate to be eligible to join the Australian Super League.

Western Sydney Wanderers won the regular season in the 2012-2013 season in the first Australian Premier League, although they lost to Central Coast in the final finals, but this is also a huge miracle, Western Sydney Wanderers introduced 17 players this season, both experienced Australian internationals like Biu Campo, and international stars like Moi, as well as powerful foreign players like Shinji Ono, coach Popovich also resigned from his position at Crystal Palace in England to coach here, which made Western Sydney Wanderers competitive enough at that time。 The reason why the team can attract so many powerful players to join has a lot to do with the "salary cap" policy implemented by the Australian Football Association in the Australian Super League.
