Chapter 35: Poking the hornet's nest
In the end, Liverpool won, but Christina was miserable, Liverpool has a lot of other teams, a bunch of Liverpool celebrities have raised objections to Owen's red card, and they are even more dissatisfied with Houllier's red card, such as Evans thinks that the referee's table is very good, and Houllier even objected to Owen's red card at the post-match press conference, and even directly thought that Christina is not worthy of law enforcement!
But Liverpool didn't expect that they would be a hornet's nest at this moment, Christina held a press conference a week later, the reason why it wasn't right away was because the referee had a rule that you couldn't be interviewed immediately after the game, and Christina also needed to prepare, this time she was really going to break out, and Duke Zhang also came to the press conference, he has already obtained the lawyer's qualification, he has to vent his anger for his sister this time!
On the day of the press conference, the mainstream media in England basically came, and Christina chose a purple dress today and painted makeup, as soon as she entered, the reporter's camera kept shooting, I have to say that it is easy to say anything if she has a good look, after Christina sat down
The reporter was very gentlemanly, did not shout, but was ready to ask questions in an orderly manner!
The first to ask the question was a reporter from The Times, who asked, "Referee Christina, do you have any response to Liverpool's comments?" ”
And Christina was silent for a while, and immediately took out a stack of photos, which were photos of Liverpool players besieging her at that time, in which the tall and mighty Liverpool players were no more than 1.7 tall, and the thin Christina was completely surrounded, Murphy even grabbed her right hand, and then Christina said with a look of grievance and pity almost with tears: "This is my response to the Liverpool players and Mr. Houllier and those celebrities, you bully a girl like this, You deceive people so much! Christina immediately raised her tone, and then she took out a piece of paper and began to read aloud: "First of all, Liverpool manager Houllier publicly ridiculed women, this is not only an insult to me Christina herself, it is not as simple as insulting me, but a blatant discrimination and disdain for women's rights, I and many women's groups have decided to file a complaint against him in the English courts."
What, the reporters on the scene were in an uproar immediately, this is directly going to fight with Holier, directly and just head-on, Hollier is just publicly mocking, this side is actually going to court, it seems that that sentence is really right, don't reason with women!
Before the reporters could digest it, Christina then broke the news: "Liverpool fans, at that time, used racist language and sensitive words to openly insult women, and will take several of Liverpool's main fan groups to court!" ”
Ah, is this a direct war with Liverpool? This is too murderous, a League Cup second round, a red card, now let the referee and the Liverpudlian directly swing the car, horses, and cannons, this is a direct fire, just as the reporter was about to ask a question, Christina pressed her hand to signal the reporters to be quiet, and then said: "And this incident fully illustrates the pride and prejudice of the Liverpool club to bully the small, bullying the weak and the blatant contempt for the referee, I have decided that if the above two do not clearly respond to my appeal, We do not rule out holding Liverpool FC responsible! After saying that, Christina turned around and left, and Duke Zhang, as a lawyer, quickly stood up and explained Christina's appeal to the majority of media friends, and at the same time prepared the lawyer's letter in person and sent it out under the gaze of reporters, and a few hours later, the FA referee committee also announced that it would hold a press conference, and Philip Tang, as the chief referee, said directly: "In this game, the referee on duty Christina's penalty is accurate and in line with the rules, Liverpool manager Mr. Houllier sarcastically mocked the referee after the game and participated in the siege of the referee on the spot, therefore, the refereeing committee decided to give Mr. Houllier a four-game ban and a fine of 50,000 pounds! At the same time, Liverpool player Owen deliberately kicked people and was suspended for one game, fined 10,000 players, Murphy threatened and attacked the referee, banned the referee for eight games, fined 30,000, and Liverpool was banned from playing three games at home. ”
And this fine also shows the attitude of the referee committee, that is, to support Christina, after all, the referee committee is going to support the referee under his command, after all, this is related to the credibility and image of the referee, this time Christina handed over the post-game report to all the people in Liverpool to sue everyone, and although Liverpool is a giant and has a very good relationship with many old referees, but this time they all chose to stand on Christina's side, after all, this time it is related to the authority of the referee, you must know that the referee is a coordinator role, At the same time, it is also a supervisor, and the referee's qiē comes from authority, if the referee committee does not support Christina this time, then what face do they have, after all, Christina now represents the image and status of the referee, and after the technical confirmation that Christina's penalty is not a problem, the referee committee decisively decided to take Liverpool to attack, so that the team can learn to respect the referee!
