On January 4, Beijing time, the noteworthy Miami China tour led by Messi came to Hong Kong, China. The visit of the plum ball king also ignited the ball market in Hong Kong. Many fans also want to see the style of the plum ball king up close.
However, it is regrettable that Miami International did not appear in the match against the Hong Kong All-Star team, but chose to sit on the bench for 90 minutes. Messi released pigeons to the Hong Kong fans! After the game, many emotional fans felt deceived! After all, everyone bought tickets to watch the game because of Messi. And angrily said that he hoped that the organizer would give an explanation and asked for a full refund.
After the game, the official explanation given by Miami International was that Messi was injured! Some media revealed that Messi's femoris biceps muscle was uncomfortable before the game, which led to the cancellation of Messi's plan to play. However, the explanation given by Miami International is that Hong Kong fans are not buying it. Because Messi played in the first four games of the Miami International preseason, but did not play in Hong Kong. The other leg of the Asian tour will be Japan, and it is reported that Messi will be in action against Tokyo FC.
It has been revealed that the overly intensive schedule of the Miami International preseason caused the 37-year-old Plum Ball King to be a little tired, which in turn caused muscle tension and forced him to take a break from the game. As for the injury, it's just an excuse. And the dissatisfaction of the fans is completely justified. After all, in the pre-match publicity, Messi was used as the biggest selling point of the game. And it wasn't until after the game that I knew that Messi was not on the field. The lack of integrity in Miami International's untrustworthy approach may be the main reason why Hong Kong fans can't bear it.
From the forced cancellation of Ronaldo's trip to China, to Messi's absence from the Hong Kong leg of the game due to injury. Why do commercial competitions with stars as gimmicks dare to release pigeons at will to Chinese fans while constantly making money. It seems that the organizers of the relevant events should reflect on themselves. We should not allow capital to act recklessly and forget the spirit of the contract that we must abide by. Only respect the fans and strictly fulfill the terms of the contract. Such a commercial game can win the support of fans.
