World Cup champion Argentina men's team, is currently preparing for a friendly match with Australia, the match is in Beijing, and football superstar Messi came to China with the team, which made the Argentine men's football team get unprecedented attention, a large number of fans surrounded the hotel where the Argentine team lived, resulting in traffic problems, doors were blocked, and the Argentine team could not go out normally.
It is reported that the fans outside the hotel were so crazy that the players could not leave the hotel, which forced Argentina's training at the Bird's Nest on the afternoon of June 11 to be canceled. The reason for this problem is that the organizers of this competition have a lot to do with it, they have not arranged relevant matters, they have not done a good job of visiting fans, and from a safety point of view, if these surrounded fans have injuries to players, then it will have unimaginable endings.
It is worth noting that this is not the first time that the tournament organizers have had problems, after the Argentine team arrived in China, forced to stay at the airport due to visa problems, and Messi needed to go through some formalities because he had the wrong passport, these details were all required by the organizers to do in advance, but none of them were done. The official work of the tournament was not good enough for both the players and the fans.
Of course, one of the main reasons for the situation of fans besieging the hotel is that Messi's popularity is too high, as the best athlete in the history of world football, Messi's ability and image are worthy of recognition, and he has been loved by a large number of fans. Messi's trip to China even overshadowed the Champions League final held at the same time, there is no heat that should be, and the super popularity of Messi King is really not casual.
Argentine Ambassador to China Niu Wangdao, in response to the fact that Messi is so popular, said in an interview with Global People Magazine: "I can strongly feel the Chinese people's 'impressive love for Messi'... He represents the spirit of never giving up, standing up to adversity, and I think that's why he's so popular in China. ”
After Messi himself came to China, he repeatedly showed goodwill to the fans, and when he temporarily applied for a visa at the airport, he gave a thumbs up to the staff, and after getting on the bus, he took the initiative to wave hello to the fans, although the itinerary was delayed because of some mistakes of the organizers, but Messi did not lose his temper.
In addition, Messi is sure that he will only play in Beijing and Australia, and will not play in subsequent matches in Indonesia. In a way, it's a favor for Chinese fans.
Do you think Messi is the first person in the history of world football?
