Chapter 660: I Seem to Have Become a Victim?

Laporta's remarks in the media, emphasizing the meaning of 'as soon as possible', as if he were the one who gave orders, urging the 'subordinate' UEFA to do things, may sound a bit unbelievable, but in the eyes of most people there is no problem.

In terms of European football, the big clubs have a huge influence, not that they really 'call the shots', but they are enough to have an equal dialogue with UEFA, and they are fully capable of interfering in some matters.

There are also reasons for this.

UEFA is the Union of European Football Associations, in short, it is responsible for the management of football in the whole of Europe, no matter how big the power is, it is only a non-governmental organization, without any political-political factors, and influential clubs in Europe can naturally influence UEFA's decision-making, and together they are qualified to 'threaten' UEFA.

The G-14, a well-known European giant, is an example of this.

In 1998, Italian media tycoon Silvio Berlusconi, led by his own media partner company, proposed the idea of organizing European giants like the American professional leagues to build a European Super League, in addition to Berlusconi, there were also media moguls such as Murdoch and Kirsch.

Later, this "dangerous" idea was quickly stifled by UEFA.

However, in the case of the damage to the interests of the rules, UEFA cannot monopolize the power, just extinguished the flame of 'resistance' at this end, and then there is a fire in the backyard at that end, and the fourteen European giants (Ajax, Dortmund, Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, Juventus, Liverpool, Manchester United, AC Milan, Marseille, Paris Saint-Germain, Porto, Eindhoven, Real Madrid) want to unify their voices in the negotiations with UEFA and gain a higher voice. The meeting was held in secret in Brussels, Belgium.

From this a new organization called "G-14" was born.

At that time, the primary goal of the organization was to "squeeze" more profits in the Champions League.

Although the G-14 has repeatedly claimed that it "has never considered the establishment of a new league", the outside world has more than once associated G-14 with the establishment of the "European Super League", and even a lot of expectations have appeared in the media, believing that the league composed of European giants has become more influential, and UEFA also changed the format of the Champions League in 1999 in order to meet the requirements of the G-14 (the group stage before the quarterfinals was changed from one round to two rounds, and the number of participating teams was expanded to 32 teams).

Since then, the G-14 has taken a number of actions, such as expanding the number of teams to 18 teams, registering a real international football organization trademark, and so on.

These moves have also made UEFA even more nervous.

After UEFA President Michel Platini took office, the first priority was to solve the G-14 issue to solve the existential threat of UEFA's funding sources and European-wide influence, because the Champions League is UEFA's 'life-root', and after losing the Champions League, UEFA's income will be greatly reduced, and it will also lose its prestige to the football associations of various countries.

In early 2008, G-14, a coalition of European clubs, signed a new agreement with UEFA and FIFA to pay a total of $252 million to the clubs for players called up to the national team.

This is a compromise on the part of UEFA.

UEFA put forward the condition that the G-14 must be disbanded.

Barcelona is one of the most influential clubs in the world, and the club's president Joan Laporta's proposal to 'change the rules' and 'limit similar unfair practices' is not just rhetoric, but will also directly put pressure on UEFA.

Barcelona had a strong appeal and soon there were flag-waving voicers, the most influential of which was Manchester United.

Manchester United should not be in the ranks of 'waving the flag', they are Barcelona's Champions League semi-final opponents, and they have the same idea as Barcelona, thinking that if they can reach the Champions League final, they will not be able to limit it if they meet Zhen Shaolong, who scored an 'unreasonable' goal.

Manchester United chairman Glazer stepped up and said nothing bad about Laporta.

However, on the issue of Zhen Shaolong's 'overhead charge', the big clubs are not as united as the G-14 in the past, and Barcelona's sworn rival Real Madrid has also stepped forward, and they believe that UEFA should not change the rules for a player.

"That's not normal."

"If other people can do it, it can also be so much, obviously, so far only Zhen Shaolong can do it, is it also a problem that the technology is too good? It's a joke! ”

"What Barcelona are thinking, everybody knows that they are afraid of losing in the final, but they are not necessarily going to make it to the final yet......

Manchester United's sworn enemy Manchester City also stood up to express the foul on the matter, and at the same time expressed absolute support for Zhen Shaolong.

Newcastle United goes without saying.

For Zhen Shaolong's personal skills of 'charging the ball', a large number of clubs stood up, and a large number of celebrities and officials stood up, each expressing their own opinions, which also made the media more hot for a while.

After the first leg of the Champions League semifinals, it was easy to find relevant news on the news for three consecutive days, as if the focus of football around the world was on Zhen Shaolong alone.

Zhen Shaolong......

He even felt a little inexplicable.

"Rushing at the top of the ball, unfair?" Zhen Shaolong only felt that the guys involved in the discussion in the media seemed to be a little abnormal, he never thought it was a good skill, mainly because it was too impractical.

The medium effect of "Skill" is to trigger the 'sticky' state, which makes the football stop in its original position, but the effect will be forcibly interrupted by an external force, and the duration is not long, and the effect is only a pitiful two seconds after triggering.

In the general game, the active effect of "Skill" is almost useless, at most it is a small breakthrough, and it cannot be recognized by the opponent at the first time, otherwise the interference of 'external force' will interrupt the 'sticky' effect.

Of course, there are special cases.

For example, in the last game with Arsenal, because of the temporary task state, the 'stickiness' of "Skill" has greatly increased the duration of "Skill", and he can send the ball into the goal with the ball, but in fact, it can be restricted, even if the skill is used, as long as the opponent touches the ball, or the running makes him unable to maintain balance, etc., as long as there is an external force, the effect cannot be sustained, of course, the premise is that the opponent finds how to defend, obviously Arsenal does not know what to do.

In any case, the premise is that the temporary mission state greatly increases the duration of "Skill", so that he can send the ball all the way to the goal, otherwise two seconds is really nothing.

That's the effect of a chicken rib.

And then.

There was a lot of noise in the media because of this?

He would be a little unhappy to say that UEFA really issued relevant rules prohibiting him from using similar abilities, but the impact is almost non-existent, and it is unlikely to affect his performance at all.

"Anyway...... I seem to have become a victim? ”

Zhen Shaolong feels this way.

This matter was not taken too seriously to his heart, but others didn't seem to see it that way, his teammates in the club took good care of him, and during the lunch meal, Owen even took the initiative to serve him the plate, and comforted him, "It's okay, Zhen, don't be sad, I believe you won't be restricted." ”

Other teammates also ran over to comfort them.

Among them, the most sincere is also Owen, who promised to give Zhen Shaolong a valuable paparazzi as a pet.

Zhen Shaolong is also taken care of at home.

Although he was originally the owner and boss of the family, he could not enjoy some care, such as yoga with special movements, special sleeping postures, etc., and he enjoyed these cares in the past two days.

In addition, there are fans as well.

A large crowd of fans gathered to support him, some female fans were still at the door of the club, shouting slogans to cheer him on, and many female fans were shouting 'willing to help him out of this difficult situation in any way'.

Meantime.

There were also various sympathetic and supportive remarks in the media, and Zhen Shaolong was also continuously touted.

Quite a few reports illustrate some examples of basketball.

Many basketball stars will force the NBA Major League to modify and add rules of the game because of 'unreasonable' techniques, such as Barkley, George McCann, Chamberlain, Bird, O'Neal and so on.

The most famous of these are George McCann and O'Neal, not that they are more famous, but the rules they forced to change are familiar to most fans.

George McCann is a long-ago old man, he was one of the first NBA centers, he moved his body very fast, and for him, the league expanded the three-second zone from 6 feet to 12 feet, directly doubling it.

O'Neal's physical weight advantage is really big, the defense of the opposing player is basically not very effective, and it can be said that he is invincible on the inside, and the league has formulated the famous three-second violation in order to balance the strength.

Of course.

Football and basketball are different.

The difference is not only in the rules and gameplay of the game, but also in the number of players involved, resulting in a single player having little impact on the balance of the game, even the most top stars, it is difficult for one person to lead a team to win, at most it can only affect the outcome of the game.

There has never been a single player in history who has forced the Football Federation to change the rules of the game with his individual technical strength.

Now it may be coming.

"From this point of view, as long as UEFA decides to make restrictions, Zhen Shaolong's name will go down in football history, he will become a different player, and it is much greater to force the Football Federation to change the rules than to win a certain individual award!"

Indeed!

Zhen Shaolong looked at the content of the report, and he hoped that UEFA would 'restrict' him, anyway, it was not a real restriction, and it seemed good to be the first person in the 100-year history of football to be 'forced to change the rules'?

When the time comes......

He's going to be a different player!
