Many years ago, Chinese football set off a huge wave of black storm, from football association officials, referees, to club bosses, coaches and players, many people involved.
Nan Yong and Xie Yalong were the two actual rulers of the Football Association, the "Golden Whistle" Lu Jun became the "Black Whistle", and the international footballers Jiang Jin, Shen Si, and Qi Hong... Many well-known Figures in Chinese Football were discredited overnight and became prisoners.
This time the thunder means against football is very intimidating, coupled with the fact that the Chinese Super League has entered a period of prosperity, the income of players has increased significantly, and match-fixing and gambling have been rarely heard in football circles. Although there have been some rumors of match-fixing and gambling, there is no actual evidence. At least during the golden decade of the Chinese Super League, most football people did not focus on these crooked ways.
However, in the past two years, the news of match-fixing and gambling has gradually increased. Especially after the national football team lost to Vietnam in the round of 12, the abnormal performance of the international football team made the fans think of it.
Recently, the General Administration of Sport and the Ministry of Public Security issued a notice to strictly investigate match-fixing and gambling, clearly pointing out that in recent years, there have been falseballs and gambling phenomena, and some players, coaches and referees have participated. It can be seen that the previous rumors of various match-fixing bets are not empty.
Why have the gambling balls and match-fixing balls that have almost disappeared "resurrected"? Especially the players, they are the most important part of betting and match-fixing, why do some people have to take risks with high salaries?
Even after the salary limit, the maximum salary of domestic players is 5 million, which is a very good income (the salary limit of 3 million in the new round of brewing is not low). Take the Chinese Super League, although most players can not get the maximum salary, as long as they can enter the first team, most of them can also reach the annual income of millions.
Although the income of gambling and match-fixing is higher and easier, it is very risky and will pay a heavy price once the incident occurs. In general, players have good incomes and should not risk their lives now.
In fact, some players seem to be on high salaries, but they don't have much money in their pockets, and some are even in debt, where does their money go?
After the players became the main force of the first team, their value increased, and luxury houses and luxury cars became their configurations. However, these expenses are often millions, and some players do not have the ability to pay them in one lump sum, and can only mortgage to provide for them. For example, a player signed a contract with the club for an annual salary of 5 million yuan, which is not available at one time, but is paid monthly, so some of his high consumption can only be paid in installments.
As we all know, in recent years, the Chinese Super League and the Chinese First Division and The Chinese Second Division clubs have been in arrears in wages. Especially this season, there are only a few clubs that do not owe wages, and those who only owe one or two months are not called "arrears", and there are not a few players who are owed salaries for half a year or even a year.
Players have not received salaries for a long time, what about the mortgage payments of luxury houses and luxury cars? In order to keep the luxury car mansion, you can only borrow money everywhere or even online loans. And this part of the players will often become the focus of the spinach group, and even they themselves will take the initiative to give hugs.
Of course, this is not to say that players who are owed wages will necessarily participate in these crooked ways, but under various temptations and helplessness, the possibility of desperate risks will be much greater.
Unpaid wages are not an excuse to participate in match-fixing, in the final analysis, they are all tempted by money, but unpaid wages are inseparable from this.
