In the Chinese Super League on the evening of December 15, after the Cangzhou Lions finished their match with Shenhua, their foreign assistant Senghor suddenly broke out after hearing the shouts of teammate Liao Chengjian, who first punched Liao Chengjian in the face, and the latter also kicked sangor - but because the teammates stopped in the middle, they did not kick him, at this time, although the game was over, the referee still showed the two red cards according to the regulations.
In this regard, Li Xuan, director of the football newspaper, said: "It is said that this foreign aid is really incomprehensible, no matter what, you can't directly hit your teammates on the field, and you can't directly hit your face, and no one can bear it at the first time."
"Today, the cangzhou two players infighting, some people say that with reference to Wang Junhui's punishment that time, I think that is not a reference, the league penalties in those two years are completely out of control, they are strict and heavy, often for a year, not in accordance with the rules." Since last year, league penalties have basically followed the system, and there is no such atmosphere of hard work."
But apparently, the fight on the court, and it is still a more ironic and embarrassing infighting fight, after the two get the red card, they will be punished by all sides, and it is difficult to run away.
Now, Chinese football is in a difficult period, like Cangzhou is at the main juncture of relegation - the main opponents in the next two games are the main rivals of relegation, Dalian and Tianjin.
In the next game, cangzhou team did not have Oscar (accumulated 4 yellow cards), plus Liao Chengjian, Senghor can not play, it is too difficult to win; at the same time, The team's Su Zu has three yellow cards, the next main suspension, the probability of not being able to take down Dalian, but this is not the real end, if Su Zu eats cards again in the game against Dalian, in the next against the most critical relegation competitor - Tianjin team, Cangzhou team's defense is very troublesome!
However, the Cangzhou team's post-event public relations is obviously commendable, and they issued an announcement at the first time saying:
“...... After understanding, the two players in the last moments of the game, due to the dispute over the defensive position, because of the language barrier, there was a misunderstanding. Faced with the pressure of relegation, the two players experienced emotional loss of control, which seriously violated the code of conduct of the Chinese Super League and caused a bad impact on the brand of our club and the Chinese Super League."
"My club will punish the players involved severely after the study. Here, our club apologizes to the public, in the future work we will take the team discipline seriously, prevent the recurrence of such things, we will also seriously summarize, unite and strive to complete the relegation goal of this season."
……
At the same time, the Cangzhou team also posted on its social media: "After the whole team arrived at the hotel from the Jiangyin Sports Center after the game, Liao Chengjian and Senghor faced the whole team for the first time and conducted a profound review of the previous uncool behavior on the field. We understand that the player's emotions are out of control under the pressure of relegation, but my club will punish this behavior severely, and I apologize to the public again."
Under this text, the Cangzhou team also played the apology video of the two people for the first time, in which the two people who stood together and faced the team staff expressed it like this:
Senghor: "In the final moments of the game, everyone was in a hurry to win, and then a bit on the top".
"Because I have been playing football in China for many years, I don't have this violent tendency, I won't hurt the other party because of some small things, and I won't hurt my teammates, but I was in a hurry, and I didn't hear too clearly what Liao was shouting over there, so I was more emotional."
"Liao and I actually knew each other for a long time, we met in the Middle Division, and then we played together. I actually admire him very much, as an older me, I should have taken more care and understanding of him, which is really my fault! ”
"I would like to sincerely apologize to Liao and then to the whole club, the players and the staff, including the FA, and I apologize for today's impulsive behaviour, and I promise that this will not happen again in future matches."
Liao Chengjian said, "First of all, apologize to everyone! From the players, the coach to the club, everyone is in a more excited state, after the game, it is true that there are some disputes on the field because of one or two balls, and we discussed it, not complaining and arguing."
"At that time, he also misunderstood, my words may have been heavier, he was also more excited and not calm, we both caused a bad move on the field, say sorry to everyone!" ——After the two finished speaking, they also clapped and hugged each other to show that they had frozen their previous suspicions.
Obviously, the behavior of these two teammates beating each other at the end of the game is absolutely wrong, and it is bound to be punished according to the rules, and subsequent punishment is inevitable. However, it also has to be said that under this predicament, the public opinion public relations of the Cangzhou team has been done in a timely manner and is relatively in place.
The team released the announcement of the situation and the relevant apology at the first time, and also organized two people immediately after the game to explain the situation and apologize to the team in person, and made the video public, which can alleviate the pressure of public opinion to the greatest extent, get the greatest understanding of the society and relevant parties, and also reserve a certain possibility for mitigating the degree of punishment.
Most importantly, such a public relations practice will create a good premise and atmosphere for the recovery of the image of the Cangzhou team and the stop loss point of the event as soon as possible - this is obviously a very successful example of public opinion public relations. 【Original Review: Yu said that hugh】
