Today, China was completely "played" by the Japan team at the Paris Olympics, but the official media and self-media are very silent, probably feeling "humiliated by the pit", so they avoid talking about it, but this typical "violation of the Olympic spirit" incident, silence is a "double standard".
A total of 12 teams participated in the women's basketball competition at the Olympic Games, divided into three groups, and after a single round-robin, the top two teams in the three groups and the third place in the two best groups can advance to the quarterfinals.
The Chinese women's basketball team is a very pity team, because I started to pay attention to them before the Tokyo Olympics, and there are a group of very young and talented talented players with a complete internal and external lineup.
The Chinese girls are in good shape, and their own characteristics are completely typed, that is simply "United States first, I second". Li Meng and Li Yueru of the Chinese team are both world-class players.
It's a pity that because of their "youth", the girls have many key games and lost the game when they were in the fourth quarter of the key ball, and they lost the game when they were stronger on paper.
In this Olympic Games, as long as the Chinese women's basketball team plays normally, the top two in the group can advance normally, but the first game was tied with five points near the end of the game, and as a result, three points were given up in the final stage of overtime, and the losing tactics were stable, so one point lost to Spain.
Then in the second game, the Chinese women's basketball team was eager to win, the tactics were chaotic, the outside line was wavering, the inside line was empty, and finally lost to the close strength of Serbia by 22 points.
After losing two games in a row in three group games, the Chinese team is already on the precipice of not being able to advance.
Fortunately, in the third game, the Chinese girls found their form, beating Puerto Rico by 22 points and finishing third in the group, with a goal difference of -! Divide.
According to the Olympic qualification rules, the third-place results in the three groups are first compared with the number of wins, and then the net difference.
After the mainland's big win over Puerto Rico, the goal difference came to -1, at which time the relationship between the winners and losers in Group B was complicated, and Japan and Belgium in Group C both lost their first two games, with the win-loss points of both teams being -27 and -37 respectively.
Japan and Belgium are close in strength, and it is impossible for the two teams to play nearly 30 points, so after our big win over Puerto Rico, although the promotion depends on the face of the other two groups, we have a huge chance of winning, and I thought yesterday that "nine out of ten are stable".
But soon, an ugly scene played out, in the first match between Belgium and Japan, Japan played completely negatively, the players on the field threw indiscriminately, and finally the game ended, just losing to Belgium by 27 points.
So Belgium and China won and lost the same game, but the victory and defeat were 1 point ahead of China, and Belgium successfully entered the quarterfinals.
But China still has a chance, the last game of Group B, is Australia against the host France team, the France team is obviously stronger, the previous two wins all.
Australia originally won one game, as long as they lose to France again, then Australia's record will be the same as China's one win and two losses, and after they lose, the victory and loss points will of course fall behind China.
As a result, the France team, which won both games, openly released water, allowing Australia to actually win, becoming the third in the group with two wins and one loss, and just won 7 points, which was just one point higher than the victory and defeat without the need to score a small score against the victory.
In this way, Australia in Group B and Belgium in Group C became the third in the group with better results just over China, and China was eliminated by them.
In a basketball game of at least 780 to 67 points, can the two games actually beat China by 1 point in terms of winning and losing the game and the net difference, can it be a 1 in 1,000 coincidence?
This is simply naked match-fixing, and they don't bother to play a few more points, win just stepping on the point, and fake it is very humiliating!
This situation makes many people very angry, but more people are "reflecting", thinking that the Chinese women's basketball team did not play well in the first two games, leaving their fate in the hands of others.
However, the Olympic Games, which chant the supremacy of the "Olympic spirit", should not tolerate match-fixing and tacit balls.
Because as long as the 8090 generation, you may forget it for a while, but when I mention it, everyone will remember the badminton past of the 2012 London Olympics.
At that time, badminton divided the two Chinese women's doubles in the same half, and if Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli won the last game of the group stage, they would have to be eliminated in the first round of the knockout round with another Chinese player.
So Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli began to "deliberately lose" on the court, and the Indonesian players who played against them were unwilling to directly knock out the stronger Chinese group after winning, so they also lost.
After being widely reported by the media, the investigation team of the Olympic Committee intervened, and finally Yu Yangwang Xiaoli combination, Indonesian combination, and two other Korea pairs who did not want to fight, and four pairs of players were disqualified by the Olympic Committee.
At that time, public opinion on the mainland, sports officials, and delegation officials did not complain, and they also believed that the two athletes had desecrated the Olympic spirit, and they were sorry for the national audience and the London audience.
If you check on the Internet, you can also find reports from the domestic media and Western media more than ten years ago that "the Olympic spirit cannot be desecrated".
At that time, the International Badminton Federation did not reflect on the unreasonable rule of "putting two groups of players from the same country in the same region and fighting in advance", and it has not changed for more than ten years.
In this Olympic Games, Chen Yufei, the badminton women's single sister, and He Bingjiao, another player from our country, also met in advance when they entered the semifinals and played in the same room.
In the end, the Chinese team could only really play, so He Bingjiao, who was not worried about the international ranking and strength on paper, won the last championship, Chen Yufei, who was in average condition this time.
And the moment He Bingjiao entered the semifinals, with her normal strength, the Chinese team had already lost the gold medal, but we didn't have an "internal operation", so we still let them play normally and win or lose normally.
In the badminton group stage, it is a "tactical choice" to avoid their own opponents by deliberately losing the ball, and even in other international badminton competitions, other countries deliberately lose in the group stage in order to avoid opponents with similar styles of play.
However, at the London Olympics 12 years ago, Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli, who had the strength to win the championship in China, were disqualified, which was the Olympic Organizing Committee telling the world the "unspoken rules and tactics of the group stage" that they would be disqualified in the Olympic Games.
In the same way, Japan's deliberate loss of 27 points to Belgium can be regarded as a "group game" in other world competitions, but there is a precedent for the Chinese team to be banned in the name of "insulting the Olympic spirit" after being widely reported by the media, then the Japan team should also be severely punished by the Olympic Organizing Committee.
If we lose in order to avoid "playing in the same room", it is an insult to the Olympic spirit.
In order to trap us, Japan lost 27 points and played match-fixing is a "tactical success"? That's too much of a double standard!
If even the last fig leaf of the "Olympic competitive spirit" is torn, then it will not be far from flipping the table and not playing!
