Messi disrespected Chinese fans and publicly stated: He was very happy to come to Japan to play
Miami International's trip to Hong Kong, China, sparked public outrage, with Chief Executive Lee Jiachao and Fok Qigang both vocal and bombardment, both of which were Miami International Club and football king Lionel Messi, who did not give fans enough respect. So how did Messi respond to this? At the press conference on his arrival in Japan, Messi said that he was very happy to play in Japan.
Everyone expects Messi to say something, at least to explain why he didn't play in Hong Kong, and refuses to interact with the fans. But what I didn't expect was that after going to Japan, Messi's face changed instantly, he treated the media with a smile, and said that he was very happy to come to Japan to play, Messi said: "I am very happy to come to Japan, I have been here a few times before, and I am very happy to play in Japan for the last time of the Asian tour." "Messi didn't take the Chinese fans seriously at all, which is very infuriating.
Judging from the contrast in Messi's attitude and remarks during his trip to Hong Kong and Japan, his disrespect for Chinese fans can almost be said to be a real hammer. Messi also mentioned at the press conference that he hopes to have another chance to play in Hong Kong, but with the fermentation of public opinion, celebrities such as Chief Executive Li Jiachao and Huo Qigang have turned on the "bombardment mode", and the possibility of Messi playing in Hong Kong in the future is almost non-existent.
The most critical thing is that neither Miami International nor Messi seems to be aware of the key to the problem, Martino's reason is only that Messi has an injury and is not suitable for the game, but this point was actually not notified to the organizer before the Miami International game, and according to the Argentine media, Messi's injury is not serious, and his absence from Hong Kong is to ensure that he will play in Japan.
It is not difficult to understand why Messi said the phrase "I am very happy to play in Japan" at the press conference of the Japan tour. If we reason the other way around, we can conclude that both Inter Miami and Messi himself believe that playing in Japan is more important, completely ignoring the feelings of Chinese fans.
