Red Rebels

794 match-fixing

Today, September 6, 2009, I, the Portuguese Jose Mourinho, the head coach of the Red Rebels, faced hundreds of media and media at the press conference hall at the Red Rebel Stadium in Manchester. More than a thousand reporters, I officially announced

With Mourinho's solemn voice, the scene became silent. All reporters shut their mouths and listened to Mourinho's words. Even Barcelona coach Guardiola, who was sitting next to him, had a look on his face. He was puzzled because he didn't know what kind of act this Portuguese madman, who was good at making press conferences, would perform again this time.

Didn't he already win the game? No matter how he looked, he seemed to be even more angry than Guardiola who lost the game. His expression was like that of a young girl who had just been raped. God knows what he wanted to do.

But while everyone was listening quietly and guessing silently in their hearts, Mourinho kept saying nothing.

I call on UEFA to set up a special operations team to investigate this game, because I personally, and the Red Rebels club I represent, have sufficient reasons and evidence to prove that our game Our opponent, Barcelona from Spain, has some players and even the entire Barcelona team suspected of match-fixing.”

As soon as everyone at the scene heard Mourinho's words, they all stood up in panic. They were stunned for several seconds, and then the scene erupted like thunder, and all the reporters were shocked for the first time. My immediate reaction was that this would definitely be a big front-page news story that would fill the pages of major sports newspapers around the world for a long time to come.

Mourinho and the Red Rebels have never lacked breaking news, but this time, they attacked other teams naked. This is the first time for the Red Rebels.

Bullshit. Guardiola stood up angrily, pointed at Mourinho, and was shaking with anger. You must pay the price for your wild words. We will definitely pursue you for this false slander.

The originally chaotic reporters suddenly fell silent. They all hoped to witness the battle between the two coaches.

Mourinho smiled coldly, and his laughter spread through the microphone on the rostrum to every corner of the press conference hall, allowing everyone present to clearly hear his disdain and his disdain for Guardio. Ra’s accusations didn’t matter.

That's right, the madman has never been a random guy. If he is not completely prepared, he will not dare to say such a thing. Since he dares to say it, it means that he is confident.

Defamation? Mourinho asked, and then looked at the reporters at the scene, Can any of you tell me what FIFA's definition of match-fixing is?

Mourinho inspected it like this,

All the reporters on the scene immediately searched for all the inventory in their minds, but suddenly, all the reporters discovered that match-fixing was something they often talked about, but when it came to formulating a definition for this ranking, they couldn't come up with it for a while.

In the end, Mourinho himself smiled a little proudly, Let me tell you, the definition of match-fixing is the result of the game using abnormal competitive methods. Then I ask you, what are abnormal competitive methods?

Everyone at the scene suddenly fell silent. They all clearly realized that Mourinho's outrage was obviously aimed at Barcelona. It was aimed at the series of flops and the series of deceiving the referee by Barcelona players on the court. The Red Rebels This time it was obvious that he had to make up his mind and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.

For many peripheral gambling groups, their abnormal competitive methods are nothing more than kidnapping, threats, damaging stadium facilities, etc. For some players and head coaches, they are nothing more than deliberately leaving out some things that they could have gone to. The opportunity he fought for allowed his opponent to win the game and then obtain illegal benefits.

Mourinho's words are still lingering around. He did not directly talk about the core, but everyone is thinking about how he will bring the topic to this game.

Sure enough, after a pause, Mourinho continued to talk.

However, I can't help but wonder, what if, and I mean what if, hypothetically, a defender deliberately misses an opportunity for a header in order to hope that the opponent's forward will score an empty goal and make his team lose. But the striker's shooting skills were so bad that he failed to score. Is this the player's behavior and does it not count as a match-fixing?

I don't think so, because in the judicial field, when there are intentions and actions of murder, but the results of the murder are not achieved, we call it attempted suicide; there are motives and intentions of killing, but the results are not realized. For the purpose of killing, we call it attempted murder, and by analogy, can we regard the defender's actions as attempted match-fixing?

In other words, does an attempted match-fixing not count as match-fixing? We must know that kicking a ball is just one action, but rape and murder are a series of actions, so for players who play football, match-fixing is just An action means yes, no means no, there is no gray area, so I think an attempted match-fixing is a match-fixing, even if the match-fixing result cannot be achieved.

Mourinho said so many words in one breath, everyone at the scene was surrounded by him. Except for a few people who guessed his purpose, they all waited with relish for him to give the final trick. Most people still I wonder, are the Portuguese going to take judicial popularization courses?

Let's go back to just now, what is abnormal competitive means? What does the definition of this term include?

Faced with Mourinho's question, all the reporters were speechless. They didn't know how to answer for a while.

Or, we can put it another way and say that methods other than normal competitive methods are called abnormal competitive methods. I believe that if I explain it this way, everyone will have no objections, right?

There were actually a few reporters at the scene who couldn't help but nod in support of Mourinho, because they also found that there was no big problem with this explanation. After all, this is the difference between abnormal competitive methods and normal competitive methods.

Very good, you all agreed, then let me ask again, is performance considered a normal competitive method? Mourinho was secretly proud that his conspiracy had succeeded, but on the surface he still had the angry expression of being raped. .

All the reporters suddenly realized it. It turned out that the Portuguese was going around and around to tell the world that his performance on the court was an abnormal means of competition and was a match-fixing.

I think that in the game that just ended, many Barcelona players intended to use performances to get the referee's penalty in their favor, such as sending off Red Rebel players. So, since the performance is not a normal competitive method, it is also It is an abnormal competitive method and falls into the category of match-fixing.”

Maybe you want to ask, have the Barcelona players achieved their goals? I can answer, they have achieved it. My player, Michael Essien, was sent off by the referee with a red card because of the performance of the Barcelona players in the game. This led to our 45-point loss in the second half. For a few minutes, I had to accept the hardship of fighting with one less person.

In addition, during the game, the referee wisely gave heavy penalties to Barcelona players for diving and cheating on penalty kicks many times. This is obviously because he clearly realized that Barcelona players were deceptive. Go onto the field with purpose.”

Although we have no conclusive evidence, although we do not have the content of the conversations in the Barcelona locker room, although we still do not understand the meaning behind the series of command actions Villanova made to the players on the sidelines during the game. What is the meaning, but I am very sure that there must be something fishy and a conspiracy in it.

Yes, maybe many people will say that the Red Rebels have won and should let go. At least Barcelona lost a game 4:o. They are miserable enough, but I touch my conscience and I am telling Should I really let it go like this?

They used abnormal competitive performances to mislead the referee and caused our players to be sent off. This in itself constitutes match-fixing and has nothing to do with whether they win the game or not.

Having said this, Mourinho suddenly punched the table in front of him heavily, startling many people present.

To put it harshly, they have achieved the goal of match-fixing, but they still cannot defeat the Red Rebels. This is not because they are soft-hearted, nor because they are repentant, but because our Red Rebels are strong enough, even if they are Even if the opponent is playing match-fixing, we can still defeat the opponent powerfully.”

I can make an assumption that a rapist intended to rape a girl, but when he threw the girl to the ground and was about to rape him, he suddenly discovered that the girl turned out to be a master. Being beaten half to death, does that mean that the law should forgive this unlucky criminal?

If you think he didn't commit a crime just because he didn't rape the girl as he wished, then I think it's ridiculous. It's definitely a shame for the judicial community.

Football should have laws in the football world. I call on all football people to pay attention to this matter. If things are allowed to continue to develop and spread, future football teams should not select the best players, but all players. To Hollywood, why?”

Mourinho sneered extremely sarcastically, There are actors with the best acting skills there. Invite them to the team, and then they will perform in every game and every penalty. They can definitely perform better than anyone in the world. A player will be more lifelike and realistic, or we can also invite the TV live broadcast company to hire a Hollywood special effects company to arrange a special effects show specifically for the live ball game, which will definitely be more popular than it is now.

But, Mourinho said with an extremely serious smile, I can't help but want to ask, is that still football? Does such a game still have meaning?

Mourinho said a lot in one breath, and the reporters at the scene were immediately in a mess. Fortunately, the press officer of the Red Rebels was already familiar with such scenes, and he quickly took control of the field. situation.

Hello, Mr. Guardiola, what is your response to Mr. Mourinho's question? A reporter provoked Guardiola with bad intentions. They wanted to see the coaches of the two teams fighting here.

That is an unreasonable and baseless accusation. I will not clarify or respond to it. I will only answer that Barcelona officials will make a judgment on this matter and we will submit this matter to the European Union. The Football Federation handled the matter and sued the Red Rebels and Mourinho for defamation. I believe that Barcelona fans around the world will not allow such despicable people to blaspheme Barcelona.

So, you deny the accusation? the reporter asked again.

Of course Guardiola replied without hesitation.

Mourinho suddenly sneered, Then do you dare to press your chest and face the blue sky above your head and the ubiquitous God's oath? You don't know Piqué's actions, you don't know Pedro's dive, You don’t even know about Puyol and Busquets’ acting?”

Faced with Mourinho's sharp words, Guardiola was suddenly unable to resist. He faltered and was about to speak, but Mourinho suddenly interrupted him again.

I have to remind you, Mr. Guardiola, maybe here, every word you say does not need to be sworn on the Bible, but I, all the reporter friends present, and fans around the world can hear and Seeing every word you say and every expression you make, we all know right from wrong, and we all know how to differentiate.

Guardiola was snatched away by Mourinho, and what he originally wanted to say suddenly retracted into his stomach. He couldn't think of it. He could only keep complaining in his heart that Mourinho's words were too sharp. incredible.

I can only say that our coaching staff has indeed arranged for players to protect themselves once they encounter fierce defensive actions on the court, but there is absolutely no performance element. I believe in the moral integrity of my assistants and my players. Professional ethics, they will never lose their professional ethics just because of one game.”

After hearing this, Mourinho burst into laughter. If Guardiola didn't reply, he really didn't have many ways to pry his mouth open, but as long as he answered, there would always be someone in a hurry. He has a way to fight back against such loopholes. After all, behind him is the entire Red Rebel operations team.

I find it very interesting, Mr. Guardiola, your explanation is not convincing, because you emphasized that the performances of Barcelona players are self-protection when encountering fierce defense, but if you are willing, I can immediately mobilize All the footage of the game, as well as all-round analysis, prove one point, that is, Barcelona players took the initiative to take self-protective actions when they did not encounter fierce defense and there was no danger at all. What is this?

We are also murderers, but when faced with a life-and-death threat and are forced to kill, we can call it self-defense; however, if there is no danger and suddenly kill for no reason, then it is called murder. Is it self-defense or murder? I I believe that all friends who have watched the game and watched the live broadcast can see it very clearly.”

After a pause, Mourinho glanced proudly at the livid Guardiola. He felt that the Barcelona coach's momentum had been completely suppressed by him. No matter how the outside world tried to vindicate him, at least Barcelona was playing match-fixing. The hat is on.

In fact, the performance of Barcelona players is indeed worthy of match-fixing.

For me, football is a very noble sport. I love this sport and I simply wish I could dedicate everything in my life to it, so I cannot allow some black sheep to desecrate this sacred sport.

I really want to believe Guardiola's words, because in my memory, he was once a player with outstanding charisma and the inheritor of the Barcelona spirit, but the reality cruelly reminds me that things are not. It’s true, and it makes me question my own memory.”

I have been at Barcelona for a long time. I have a certain affection for this team and a deep understanding of it, but I never knew when Barcelona turned into what it is now.

Yes, maybe it is strong, but its strength is only in the results of the game, and its strength is only outside the court, but can they really be so strong that they can convince all the teams that lose to them? Do you want them to be convinced that they lost?

Mourinho shook his head vigorously, I don't know, but I know very well that there is a big gap between this Barcelona team and the Barcelona team I remember and worked with for many years. They are worlds apart. They are too unfamiliar. They are not even close to each other. It’s not the Barcelona I used to know, it’s not the Barcelona that it was a long time ago.”

All reporters were immediately shocked by Mourinho's words, especially his definition of a strong team.

Looking at the whole of Europe, the Red Rebels under Mourinho are probably the only ones that can be truly feared and convinced by all the teams that lose to them.

At this moment, the Portuguese madman’s words still ring in his ears.

Yes, even on a court filled with match-fixing, diving and performances, even with one less person fighting on the court, Guardiola's Barcelona still couldn't defeat Mourinho's Red Rebels. Then A score of 4:0 is extremely shocking, and I believe it will also become an eternal pain in the hearts of Barcelona fans.

In fact, this game was more painful than Rijkaard's 7:0, because Barcelona lost that game, but they did not lose completely. But this time, Barcelona completely collapsed.

Especially after the press conference ended, many reporters got the news. In the locker room after the game, the Barcelona players collectively fought among themselves. Foreign aid players such as Abidal and Keita, and Puyol, Pe DeRo, Xavi and other man-made local forces started a fierce conflict in the locker room.

This undoubtedly made Barcelona's current severe situation even worse, especially after the game, when UEFA stated that it would conduct a detailed review of the match report submitted by the referee. Everyone speculated that Barcelona might be doomed this time. Got it
