Golden Greenery

The FIFA Ethics Committee held a meeting and decided to temporarily suspend president Joseph Blatter for 90 days.

Blatter is in trouble. Even though he announced his resignation a few months ago and is only temporarily acting as FIFA president until the new president is elected, he has not escaped this problem.

In 2015, the police and the FIFA headquarters and Blatter's office were searched and data was seized.

Former FIFA President and Football Pope Joao Havelange took over the highest power in the football world immediately and has been in control of the world's number one sport for almost 20 years.

A year ago, no one thought that Blatter would fall so soon. His power in FIFA was no less than that of the former Pope Havelange, who could rule the world with one hand.

There are more than 200 countries and regions in the world, but more than half of them have heads of state who are respectful when meeting Blatter, the chairman of a private industry association. People who have long been on the list of power and influence in the world are like demolishing buildings.

To be honest, Blatter has contributed to modern football. He inherited Havelange's art of international football diplomacy, further deepened the commercialization of football matches, and strengthened the involvement of modern technology in traditional football matches. All of this has allowed football to maintain a prosperous development momentum.

However, football is the number one sport in the world, and Blatter is more about following the trend, and the times create heroes, rather than creating football in the 21st century.

Blatter's downfall was due to those things. FIFA's internal accounts involving him were unclear, there was serious corruption and power rent-seeking, he was suspected of fixing games, and he was involved in many shady affairs of the World Cup.

In fact, everyone has long known these things. If the water is clear, there will be no fish. No one who sits in that position will be too clean. Times create heroes, and times also create this real world.

FIFA is too rich and very powerful. Within such an organization, all the ups and downs come from power struggles, but no one has been able to shake Blatter before. He is firmly in control of everything, and those who oppose him can only remain tolerant.

It started at the end of last year.

After Zhuoyang's accident, people who liked him were very sad and angry. They wanted to do something. A few months ago, without investigation and on the grounds of unfounded suspicions of racial discrimination, Zhuo Yang was disqualified from the double-award selection of "World Mr. Golden Globe", allowing those who like and love Zhuo Yang to find a way to vent their anger. mouth, and they were united by this.

The old Zhuo family, famous agents headed by the fat Raiola, UEFA Secretary General Infantino, Swinburne and other senior aristocrats, and well-known brands that relied on Zhuo Yang to gain a lot of commercial benefits,

There are also many capital forces related to this, which have formed the "Taobu" group in a tacit understanding.

China's emerging capital, led by EC Technology, inexplicably lost to Qatar's American backstage boss in its bid to host the 2022 World Cup.

The German football forces headed by Beckenbauer, former UEFA President Johansson, the European Players Union, the Milan Knights of the Round Table...

He has been at the top of world football since 2005, but in the five years since the dual awards were combined into one, Zhuoyang only won the pinnacle honor once in 2011. Although the other four were won by the Six Musketeers brothers, each year alone does not seem to be too controversial, but looking at the entire five years, Zhuoyang, as the world-recognized number one player in today's football, has been unfairly suppressed. But it is very obvious, and the suppression reached its peak in 2014.

With Zhuo Yang's accident as the trigger, all the football forces gathered together because of Zhuo Yang launched a vigorous movement to reshuffle and redivide the football world.

This is the beginning of FIFA's regime change.

The number one boss, Blatter, fell, how could the number two boss, Latini, die well?

Platini is different from Blatter. Blatter is a pure politician in the field of football, while Platini has the professional aura of a former superstar in his playing career. To some extent, bringing him down is better than It's even harder to let go of Blatter.

Platini has almost managed French Ligue 1, Serie A, and half of La Liga into his own back garden. They say he is Barcelona's "father". And he has a high degree of support among the second- and third-tier member countries in Eastern Europe because he reformed the Champions League and gave these small leagues a chance to divide the cake.

From the perspective of football's long-term development, Platini's plan is right, but his blunt and brutal one-size-fits-all plan has harmed the interests of many wealthy clubs. Platini explained that this was a win-win situation, which may have some truth to it, but the giants thought he was forcibly robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

Since 2011, Platini has also been quite desperate in suppressing Zhuoyang.

In order to bring down Platini, everyone spent more thought than dealing with Blatter.

They gave Platini a big cake and said they would support him in becoming the new head of FIFA after Blatter.

Platini is in the urn, the leader of the world's number one sport, the true uncrowned king on earth. He longs for this invisible crown just like Zhao Ji longs for immortality.

Platini can't wait to become another pope in the football world after Blatter.

He quickly ended his close cooperation and even alliance with Blatter for many years and became the vanguard of the anti-Brother movement. After Blatter was forced to resign as president a few months ago, Platini quickly expressed his intention to run for the new FIFA president.

At that time, everyone who did not know the truth, including Platini himself, believed that he was the only candidate, an unshakable fait accompli.

The Swiss searched Blatter's office and obtained solid evidence that was sure to overthrow him, declaring that Blatter's football political life was over.

Platini was delighted.

But in the blink of an eye, the United States took action against him. Not only did it search Platini with lightning speed, but it also restricted his movements when he visited the United States.

His problems are the same as Blatter's. They are all those things. After all, no one can be absolutely clean in that position.

Implicated by the two of them, a large number of football association presidents from Africa and Eastern Europe fell, as well as many executive committee members and even secretaries-general of FIFA and various continental football federations.

By the end of 2015, the FIFA Ethics Committee officially announced that Blatter and Platini had been banned from participating in football affairs for eight years. This resolution will take effect immediately.

Switzerland and the United States still reserve the right to pursue criminal liability against the two, which makes it impossible for them to turn over. Football is far away from them, and the prosperity of the past will eventually become only a memory.

Zhuo Yang, who is still cut off from the real world, is unaware of this series of dramatic changes. When he wakes up one day, he may be a little surprised to see that football has changed.
