The referee's work is delegated to the Chinese Football Federation, why is the spearhead aimed at Gao Hongbo? Internal friction is fierce, and someone deliberately arches the fire
In the 16th round of the Chinese Super League, many games of blowing penalties have caused huge controversy! Ma Ning was on the hot search on the night of the game, and the limelight once covered up the misjudgment of Nantong Dalian. However, with the opening of Nantong Zhiyun boss Fan Bing, public opinion began to pay attention to the most serious misjudgment of the Chinese Super League this season, the Football Association admitted the mistake, and the misjudgment of Nantong Dalian quickly covered the negative public opinion about Ma Ning.
However, in the 16th round of the Chinese Super League, the more controversial matches, why not only the three towns of Shanghai and the two games of Nantong Dalian? Cangzhou, which has relatively less attention in this round, played Jinmen Tigers at home, and Yatai played Zhejiang at home, and the referee team led by Liu Wei and Shen Yinhao also grabbed the camera. So much so that Yu Genwei, who has always been mild, was angry and wanted to go to Liu Wei to settle the account.
Four of the eight matches in a round have caused a lot of controversy, which is a microcosm of recent times. It can even be said that in this season's Chinese Super League, the controversy over referees has not stopped. Whenever the referee disputes the penalty, public opinion will target Gao Hongbo. It's just that on this issue, Gao Hongbo is more like an innocent lying gun!
On April 12, Qin Yun, a well-known media person, exposed the division of labor among the leaders of the "caretaker cabinet" of the Chinese Football Association. Li Yingchuan, deputy director of the State General Administration of Sports, presided over the comprehensive work.
Yan Zhanhe, Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Chinese Football Association, is responsible for party affairs, administration, logistics and league work, and is in charge of the Party Committee Office, Discipline Inspection and Supervision Department, Strategic Planning Department, Administration Department, Finance Department, Media and Public Relations Department, Xianghe Base, Ford Bao Company, Preparatory Group of the Chinese Football Federation and other departments and units. Yuan Yongqing assisted, and also assisted Gao Hongbo in charge of the member association department and Sun Wen in charge of the information management department.
Gao Hongbo, vice chairman of the Chinese Football Association, is responsible for national brand, competition and youth training, and is in charge of the national team management department, men's football youth training department, competition department, referee department, member association department, futsal and beach soccer department, venue equipment department, football city office and other departments and units. Cao Jingwei assisted, and at the same time assisted Yan Zhanhe in charge of the strategic planning department.
Sun Wen, vice president of the Chinese Football Association, is responsible for foreign affairs, women's football and technical work, and is in charge of the International Exchange Department, the Technology Department, the Social Football Department, the Information Management Department and other departments. Yang Xu assisted in the management, and at the same time assisted Gao Hongbo in charge of the competition department and the Foot City Office.
The referee department is in charge of Gao Hongbo, and at first glance it seems right to criticize Gao Hongbo because of the referee problem, but many people ignore another important factor - since 2021, the referee selection, law enforcement and other work of the Chinese Super League has long been delegated to the Chinese Football Federation by the Football Association, and the former international referee Zhou Dequan was in charge of the referee that year. Even in 2022, some media revealed that at the request of Chen Jiayuan, the Football Association withdrew the right to appoint referees, but this year the Football Association once again delegated power, and the referee selection of the Chinese Super League, China League A, China B and China Champions was all handed over to the department responsible for league operations. In the Chinese Super League, the main but not the only person in charge of the selection of referees is Guo Bingyan, the current head of the Chinese Football Federation.
The Football Association has delegated the power to select referees, which does not mean that the referee has nothing to do with the referee department. During the June international break, the referees were called to Xianghe for a meeting, which was presided over by the head of the refereeing department and the manager of the national football team, Cui Ren. In addition to Guo Bingyan and Cui Enlei, many people have also mixed in!
When more people mix a thing, the problem will often be complicated, and it is inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will appear. Regardless of the Gao Hongbo who works as a referee in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese League One, behind the frequent lying gun due to referee problems, there is someone who is deliberately arching the rhythm of the fire behind his back.
Many friends who have been following Chinese football for a long time may know that Gao Hongbo will often break up unhappily during his coaching at the club. Gao Hongbo's sworn rival L, who formed Liangzi when he quit coaching the club after winning the championship, is now working in the same building with him.
After Huang Shenghua was driven back to Guangzhou by Chen Jiayuan in 21, he once mastered the power of life and death in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese League One, and recruited troops to set up a set of his own team internally. But since 22 years, the power of life and death at the competition level has been in the hands of Guo Bingyan, and L's authority has been greatly affected, and his power in the past two years has been mainly reflected in brand promotion and business level.
Considering that the department to which L belongs is not Gao Hongbo's supervisor, it is said that these two do not have much work intersection. But in May, a Chinese League One team lost three points at home when they scored an offside goal. Since there is no VAR in the Central League One, and in previous games this season, the team did not suffer obvious mistakes, they did not appeal, and they did not intend to hold on. But L called the club's management, offered to "do it hard", "don't engage in long memory", and hinted at pouring "dirty water" on Gao Hongbo. And a certain club owner who has been in full swing in recent days has also received an arch fire call from L before!
In the past two years, many practitioners of Chinese football have not been satisfactory for various reasons, and the Football Association and its subsidiaries such as the China Football Federation and Ford Bao Company have also been criticized and questioned by public opinion because of the continuous arrest of middle and high-level people, as well as the introduction of some unreasonable regulations and measures, and public credibility has fallen to the freezing point.
Chinese football wants to bottom out, and the image of the Chinese Football Association bottoming out is complementary, as long as the league can catch fire and the performance of the national brand can gradually improve, the negative voice about the football association will naturally decrease. However, some people in power, it is difficult to say that their butts are not clean, but they always think of arching the fire and pouring dirty water on the rhythm of the "hostile forces". And these rhythms and dirty water will not ruin Gao Hongbo, but can "strip" the last "bottoms" of the Chinese Football Association!
