If you want to talk about the most regrettable players in Chinese football, many people may first think of Dong Fangzhuo, Mao Biao and others, but in fact, the real regret of Chinese fans is the domestic "free kick master" Shensi
Speaking of Shensi, many young friends may not know him well, but Shensi is also a player who won world-class honors at his peak. Inviting players to participate in the World Free Kick Tournament, Shensi defeated Zidane and Messi in the match to finish second in the Free Kick Tournament
If it weren't for being too impulsive, Shensi might still be able to continue to stand on the football field like Li Tieyi and play his own light and heat for Chinese football. Unfortunately, he temporarily lost his mind, so that Shensi could not fully use his talent in the end. On April 25, 2012, four former international players, Qi Hong, Shen Si, Jiang Jin and Li Ming, were sentenced on suspicion of bribery. Among them, Shensi was sentenced to 6 years in prison, and Qi Hong was sentenced to 5 years and 6 months in prison.
After Shensi regained his free status, he also relied on Lucky Children's Football Club in Shanghai, trying to pass on what he learned throughout his life to other younger children, but more often than not, Shensi relied on playing on the field to earn some living expenses.
With the continuous improvement of the domestic football atmosphere, many local enterprises and townships often hold some amateur grassroots football matches, and former internationals like Shensi can also make a lot of money by participating in such competitions.
Generally speaking, for these grassroots football matches, the appearance fee of players can be roughly divided into several grades. The first year is a student of some sports colleges, or some of the more famous players on the Internet. Their appearance fees are basically the same. at the level of 1,000 yuan to 2,000 yuan; The second tier is people who have professional player experience, including some former professional players like China A, China B, or some players who have already entered the professional club echelon. The appearance fee is about three or five thousand yuan.
The third level is those players who have experience in the Chinese Super League. Maybe these players are just ordinary players in the Chinese Super League, but in grassroots football, they are also real stars. The appearance fee is generally 5,000 to 8,000 yuan. Around RMB.
International players such as Shensi and Fan Zhiyi are definitely superstars on the grassroots court. The general appearance fee is between 10,000 and 50,000 yuan, and if it is not introduced by friends, these players will not easily participate. Some grassroots football games, on the one hand, the addition of these international players can increase the popularity of these grassroots games
On the other hand, even though these internationals are over forty or even fifty years old, they are still unstoppable on the pitch. Therefore, for Shensi, playing grassroots football is also a good choice.
