Chapter 883 - Challenging UEFA

Challenge UEFA!

When Zambrano's op-ed was published on the front page of the newspaper Marca, it immediately caused a huge response.

As a professional head coach, Zambrano analyzed the current situation in La Liga, which can be described as justified and full of dry goods, although the optimism of China City is surprising, but the reasons are also convincing.

However, what is even more surprising is that Zambrano, while affirming that Chinatown has a good chance of finishing in the top four of the league and qualifying for next season's Champions League, also raised another question, that is, as Manchester City's chief technology officer and manager, and at the same time the owner of Chinatown, how will Gao Han deal with himself?

In the midst of the public opinion that China Town was being slammed, the columns of Ace and Zambrano undoubtedly stood out from the crowd, were very topical, and at the same time very appealing to readers, so they quickly spread from Spain and attracted the attention of the media around the world.

According to UEFA rules, Gao Han's two different identities are obviously conflicting with each other, and they were not in the same event before, so forget it, but now Manchester City has basically won the championship in advance, and China City is also very hopeful of reaching the top four in the league, so the question has begun to put on the table, how to deal with it?

Soon, Marca published another opinion piece, slowly sorting out the relationship between Gao Han and Chinatown from beginning to end, on the one hand, to let everyone understand their connection more deeply, and on the other hand, it is more curious, in case of conflict, how to deal with it?

Gao Han is going to sell Chinatown?

Or is he no longer coaching?

Either way, it will undoubtedly cause an uproar around the world.

Media reporters are like a group of sharks that have smelled blood, and as soon as they saw that the columns and comments of the Marca newspaper had exploded, they immediately followed in a swarm, reporting and paying attention to the incident, and soon all kinds of rumors spread.

At UEFA's first regular press conference in early February, Marca reporter Seske asked on the spot to find out what UEFA's view of the matter was.

The UEFA spokesperson was clearly prepared for the same thing.

"Thank you very much for the concern of all the media friends present, in fact, we have been closely monitoring the progress of this matter, and it has been very clear in our regulations and rules that we will properly adjudicate this matter in strict accordance with the rules and regulations, and all media reporters and fans are welcome to supervise. ”

"But so far, we can't make any response, because we first need to get the list of teams to be presented by the national federations for next season's European competitions after the season's matches are over. ”

All the media who attended the press conference are old fritters, where can you not see that UEFA is playing tai chi?

As a result, many reporters have asked whether as long as the list of participating teams is obtained, Chinatown is confirmed to participate in European competitions, and there is a conflict of interest with Gao Han's position in Manchester City?

The spokesman was also experienced, and immediately smiled and said that only by getting the list first can UEFA follow up on the investigation, and as for the result, it will not be determined until the specific in-depth investigation.

Soon, another reporter followed up and asked, if Manchester City and China City participate in the Champions League at the same time, will Gao Han's multiple identities as the chief technology officer and head coach of Manchester City, as well as the owner of China City, violate UEFA rules and have a conflict of interest?

Speakers respond, not hypothetical questions.

All the media reporters clearly felt that the UEFA spokesperson was evasive and could understand his reply at this moment, and even they were mentally prepared for it, so they began to report on this topic, and many tabloids also made associations.

For a time, the media rose up to attack, and there was a great tendency to use the pressure of public opinion to coerce all parties to express their positions.

Gao Han also quickly realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately held a press conference to publicly express his position, saying that his relationship with Chinatown has never been concealed in the slightest, and all fans around the world know it.

"There are too many inseparable connections between me and Chinatown, and he is not just me, so no matter before, now or in the future, I will not sell Chinatown, and all rumors that I will sell Chinatown have been handed over to the lawyer to deal with, and I reserve the right to pursue it. ”

"I would say that I, along with many of my colleagues and players, have put a lot of effort into Chinatown to make it what it is today, and if one day I had to make a choice, then there is no doubt that I would opt out. ”

Gao Han's statement quickly spread through the media and throughout European football, causing an astonishing response.

Some media believe that he is threatening UEFA, but some people say that he is purely for Chinatown, and some people say that he is trying to hype himself.

But soon, Manchester City officials immediately made a statement, unconditionally supporting the head coach Gao Han, firmly believing in his professional ethics, and hoping that everyone can seriously consider the particularity of Chinatown.

Many famous coaches, including Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Bosque, Pep Guardiola, Emery, Klopp, Ancelotti, Capello, and Lippi, have also come forward to express their support for Gao Han, believing that the situation in Chinatown is special and hoping to be treated specially.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi, Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Aguero, Ribery, Robben, Drogba, Ronaldinho and many other superstars have also come forward, and even the retired Zidane, Makelele, Kiko, Veron and other celebrities have also stood up and publicly supported Gao Han.

FA, German Football Federation, Italian Football Federation, Spanish Football Federation, French Football Federation...... As well as the core executives and spokespersons of professional leagues such as the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, French Ligue 1 and Serie A, they have publicly stated that the special relationship between Gaohan and Chinatown should be considered as appropriate, and should not be beaten to death with a stick.

UEFA President Michel Platini soon said in an interview with the media, "UEFA has rules and regulations in order to prevent capital from profiting from controlling clubs, but it is clear that Gao Han's situation is very special, China Town was founded by him, and it took a full decade to rise from the bottom of the league all the way to today's La Liga." ”

"Of course, we assume that if Gao Han's Manchester City and Chinatown play in the Champions League next season, it will do pose some problems, so we are also looking at this and we need some time. ”

Platini also said that UEFA has a very mature prevention mechanism in terms of competitions, and there will be an independent body to evaluate and review the game process after each European match to ensure that the game is played under the principle of fairness, justice and openness, so he believes that from a private point of view, there is no need to worry too much about the problems of Alpine and Chinatown.

Regarding Gao Han's news that he would choose to retire if his coaching had a conflict of interest with Chinatown, Platini said that he would never want to see such a thing happen.

"There is no doubt that he is the greatest and most successful manager of world football in the last decade, he is like a living legend, standing in front of everyone, admired, he should not leave professional football too soon, it would be a loss for all those who love football all over the world. ”

Such a large number of football people have come forward and publicly supported Gao Han, which has also allowed fans in the entire European football world and even around the world to witness Gao Han's influence in European football.

The media that was originally hyped was quickly divided into two factions, some in favor of special treatment in special circumstances, and others in favor of UEFA's strict control and resolute strangulation of all violations of the constitution and challenges to UEFA's authority.

In this overwhelming turmoil, although Chinatown has become famous, appeared in many media pages, and entered the field of vision of fans and non-fans all over the world, the team's lineup is relatively young, and it is easy to be affected by the outside world, and there have been twists and turns in the results.

In February, China City suffered two consecutive defeats after losing 0-1 at home to Levante and then 0-1 away to Deportivo La Coruna.

These two defeats made China City lose six points, and during this period of time, Barcelona and Real Madrid also continued to lead, and Atletico Madrid also caught up with China City with two consecutive wins, and reversed China City by virtue of goal difference, occupying the third position in the league and squeezing China City to the fourth place in the league.

What is even more surprising is that after suffering two consecutive defeats, Chinatown drew 1-1 at home to Malaga and 2-2 away to Racing Santander, suffering two consecutive draws and a four-game winless run.

Four consecutive games without a win have ushered in an internal crisis for Chinatown, although the team has saved up the lead before, after losing the third place in the league, still retain the fourth place in the league, but Valencia, Espanyol, Athletic Bilbao and Sevilla are all chasing after them, and the distance is getting closer and closer, and the pressure is increasing.

Also in this turmoil, Manchester City, which is helmed by Gao Han, is still very stable.

In February, Manchester City beat Birmingham City 2-0 away, West Bromwich Albion 3-0 at home, Manchester United 2-1 away and West Ham United 2-0 at home.

Especially the 2-1 away game against Manchester United, the game was extremely miserable, Ferguson's Red Devils can be said to be a dead beat Manchester City, mercilessly, and Gao Han also used the skill card at the last moment, which contributed to Kaka's key stunner, 2-1 from Old Trafford.

After this battle, there is basically no suspense in the Premier League, and it is only a matter of time before Manchester City successfully defends the title.

In addition to the league, Manchester City continued to play with an all-substitute squad in the FA Cup round of 16 knockout round, beating Leyton Orient 5-0 away to advance to the quarter-finals.

In the Champions League last-16 knockout round, Manchester City were lucky enough to draw against Denmark's Copenhagen and beat them 2-0 away in the first leg in late February.

However, Gao Han was not satisfied with the result, and if it were not for the local climate in Denmark, Manchester City would definitely have the ability to cut a big win directly, arrange a rotating line-up in the second leg of the home game, and recuperate to play in the quarter-finals.

On 27 February, Manchester City faced the Carabao Cup final against Arsene Wenger's Arsenal.

But on the morning of the match, Gao Han welcomed Armando Marcos, the general manager of Chinatown, and Cantarero, the technical director.

The two came to London, which brought not only unexpected bad news to Gao Han, but also an unexpected surprise.
