Recently, the sports circle has been less peaceful, and the table tennis world has also been involved, with many people discussing it. Well, what's going on here? It's surprising that it involves our national sport. It turns out that a sports journalist named He Xiaolong recently wrote an article with quite explosive content. He compared Liu Guoliang with Li Tie, who had an incident before, and found that Liu Guoliang's influence is even greater than Li Tie! This is not to be taken lightly; once the article came out, it caused an uproar online. He Xiaolong said that Liu Guoliang's power is "domestic and international," making waves at home and abroad. Impressive, right? He can even sideline collective decision-making—how much energy does that take! Think about it, the national football team's affairs are messy, but at least the Football Association still has to manage them; after all, the power isn't that centralized. But the national table tennis team? He Xiaolong said that the transparency of the national table tennis team is much lower than that of the national football team. It's like a black box; no one knows what's really going on inside. Liu Guoliang used WTT to establish a huge industrial chain, how complicated and opaque this chain is, us ordinary folks really don't know. Even worse, he has kidnapped the entire national table tennis team, and the athletes have no choice but to listen to him. This is not an exaggeration; just look at what netizens are saying. Some say that Liu Guoliang's influence has surpassed sports itself…

Once a prominent figure in Chinese football, Li Tie was sentenced to 20 years for his involvement in over 100 million yuan of illegal assets. He appeared calm and retained the opportunity to appeal. This verdict sparked widespread discussion, with some questioning the disparity in sentencing compared to Chen Xuyuan, who received life imprisonment for a lesser amount. As Li Tie's case unfolded, it exposed a web of corruption, from being persuaded to participate in match-fixing to implicating intermediaries like Liu Yi and even leading to the downfall of Gou Zhongwen. The revelation that Li Tie's misdeeds began before he became the national team coach has shaken the football community. Fans are disheartened by the extent of underhanded dealings within the sport. The involvement of high-ranking officials like Gou Zhongwen, who was caught up in shady operations related to major events like the Asian Cup hosting rights and the Winter Olympics, further eroded public trust. Despite the turmoil, Gao Hongbo, a former vice-chairman of the Football Association, remained untainted. He expressed regret over the events but also optimism that the industry would improve following this scandal. This could be a fresh start for the national team, with hopes that Chinese football will clean house and return to its pure sporting roots. Online discussions reflect mixed opinions. Some believe Li Tie's sentence is too lenient and should be increased to deter others, while others argue that his cooperation in exposing deeper corruption merits consideration in sentencing. Regardless, there is a collective wish for Chinese football to seize this opportunity to reform…

Li Tie has been sentenced to 20 years in prison, a bombshell that has exploded in the football world. This once-promising figure on the football field has now become a prisoner, which is truly disheartening. The revelations from Feng Junyan, the former captain of Evergrande, add an air of mystery to this event. He mentioned details of Li Tie's time at Evergrande, and who would have thought that the once upright Li Tie would end up on such an unexpected path of no return. Speaking of Li Tie, he was also a star on the field during his playing days, running and fighting for the ball, earning great achievements for the national team. At that time, he was a hero in the hearts of many fans. However, after retiring, he seemed like a changed person. Looking at Feng Junyan, the meritorious captain of Guangzhou Evergrande, who has been involved with football since childhood, he became an indispensable member of the team with his agile skills and excellent awareness in the midfield. He witnessed and participated in the entire process of Guangzhou Evergrande's rise from the China League One to the Chinese Super League, from obscurity to becoming the four-time Chinese Super League champion, AFC Champions League winner, as well as winning titles in the FA Cup and Super Cup. His presence has been a part of all these glories, making him a legendary figure of the team. Feng Junyan mentioned that when Li Tie served as an assistant coach at Evergrande, despite being in a strict club environment, Li Tie's…

The Chinese national football team has recently completed a ten-day winter training camp in Hainan, which provided valuable opportunities for physical conditioning and tactical coordination. This training period also marked the transformation and growth of an experienced player. National team coach Ivanovic praised the performance of all players during the training, especially that of Wei Shihao, which is rare in his coaching career. Ivanovic stated that Wei Shihao demonstrated exceptional leadership and team spirit, becoming a standout player in the national team. The Croatian coach commended Wei Shihao not only for his outstanding technical skills but also for his key role in mentoring younger players and leading them forward. In response to the coach's praise, Wei Shihao humbly expressed during an interview, "This training camp had the best atmosphere in the national team. As one of the older players, I have the responsibility and obligation to lead them well." Wei Shihao's journey to transformation was not without challenges. As a top player from the '95 generation, he achieved fame at a young age and was a mainstay in various youth national teams. However, his experiences with the senior national team were filled with ups and downs. From Lippi to Li Tie, Wei Shihao never received true recognition, and his career at the national level was fraught with difficulties. Under Ivanovic's leadership, however, Wei Shihao finally found his spring. In recent 18-strong matches, he played as a core player, repaying the coach's trust with his actions and displaying the spirit of a hardworking soldier. Reflecting on Wei Shihao's national team career,…

The training camp for the Chinese men's national football team has concluded. During this training session, a statement made by Wei Shihao during an interview left a deep impression on many people. A large number of fans are praising Wei Shihao, who was once known as a troublemaker in the national team, for his transformation! What did Wei Shihao say that evoked such feelings from the fans? In his interview, Wei Shihao discussed two points. First, he believes that the current atmosphere within the Chinese men's national football team is the best among all previous national teams. Second, he thinks that head coach Ivanković can lead the Chinese men's national football team to qualify for the World Cup finals. Honestly, it's not easy for Wei Shihao, who is already 29 years old, to say these words! During the Lippi era, Wei Shihao was just starting out, and Lippi did not trust him. After all, Wei Shihao at that time had a fiery personality and often lost his temper during matches, becoming a hidden landmine for the Chinese men's national football team. You never knew when he might explode. Later, under Li Tie's leadership, Wei Shihao was not favored by Li Tie. After all, Li Tie himself had problems. Due to Wei Shihao's disobedience, Li Tie also excluded him from the national team. We don't know how Ivanković managed to win over Wei Shihao! After the first two games of the top 18 qualifiers ended with two consecutive losses for the Chinese men's national football team, media reports revealed that the…

On January 18th, the Chinese national football team's 10-day winter training in Haikou is about to come to an end. Coach Ivan is very satisfied with the performance of the players, especially Wei Shihao. Ivan rarely praises individual players, but he praised Wei Shihao during this training camp. He believes that Wei Shihao has played a role in passing on and helping in this national team. In an interview, Wei Shihao also said, "This is the best atmosphere within our national team. I am one of the oldest in the team, so I should take good care of them." Once upon a time, Wei Shihao was still a U23 player. Nowadays, he has become the leader of the national team. Born in 1995, Wei Shihao is about to turn 30 years old. However, his experience in the senior national team has always been bumpy. Whether it was during Lippi's coaching period or later when Li Tie took over, Wei Shihao never received real importance. It wasn't until this 18-strong match that Wei Shihao enjoyed the treatment of a core player under Ivan, and he repaid Ivan's trust with his relentless spirit. Wei Shihao became famous at a young age and has always been the main player of various youth national teams, as well as the backbone of the team. However, in the senior national team, he did not make his debut for the national team until he was 22 years old. Wei Shihao, who will soon be 30 years old, has only played 34 games for the national team, scoring…

China's national football team has concluded its latest training camp, during which Wei Shihao, once known as a troublemaker within the team, made some impressive remarks in an interview that have left many fans praising his transformation. Wei Shihao shared two main points during his interview. Firstly, he believes that the current team atmosphere within China's national football team is the best it has ever been. Secondly, he is confident that head coach Ivanković can lead the Chinese team to qualify for the World Cup finals. It is quite remarkable that the 29-year-old Wei Shihao could express such sentiments! During Lippi's tenure, Wei Shihao was just starting out and Lippi did not trust him. At that time, Wei Shihao had a fiery personality and often lost his temper during matches, becoming a hidden danger for the Chinese team that could explode at any moment. Later, under Li Tie's leadership, Wei Shihao was not favored by Li Tie. After all, Li Tie himself had issues. Due to Wei Shihao's disobedience, Li Tie also excluded him from the national team. We don't know how Ivanković managed to win over Wei Shihao! After the first two games of the top 18 qualifiers, where the Chinese team suffered two consecutive losses, media reports revealed that the Chinese Football Association discussed the possibility of changing coaches with the players. At that time, Wei Shihao expressed his support for Ivanković to continue coaching. It is reported that before subsequent matches, Wei Shihao acted more like the team captain, emphasizing to his teammates the importance of following…

Recently, in the live broadcast room of famous journalist He Xiaolong, He Xiaolong claimed that Liu Guoliang's destruction of the table tennis ecosystem is much more severe than Li Tie's impact on the football circle. He Xiaolong said: The football circle has always had poor results and an unfavorable internal environment. There are many cases of gambling and match-fixing. Such incidents were already common before Li Tie, not to say that Li Tie ruined it. Li Tie was just a typical example of corruption caught. Li Tie became too arrogant after taking charge of the national team, with a very bad nature. However, his control over the football circle was far less effective; he could only control the national team and Wuhan club, with other clubs not listening to him at all. But the table tennis circle is different. Before Liu and even during his early tenure as head coach, the overall environment was quite good, arguably the best in the sports world. Even if there were negative news, they were individual cases, such as the "letting-ball" controversy, which was initially done to improve results. Incidents like Kong Linghui and Zhang Jike's gambling scandals were limited to individuals, and the table tennis circle as a whole was still good. However, since Liu took charge of the Table Tennis Association and held three positions simultaneously, everything changed. Domestic events and clubs of all sizes are under his control, including matters in the international table tennis arena where he also has significant influence. This has led to a monopoly, destroying the entire…

From January 9th, Beijing time, the Chinese men's football team has been in a state of harmony during their winter training. Under the leadership of head coach Ivan Kozlovic, the team has achieved unprecedented unity, and they are all confident about the prospects of the national team's World Cup qualifying campaign. As Wei Shihao said, the national team is very hopeful to achieve the goal of qualifying for the World Cup. It is worth mentioning that in recent days of training, Wei Shihao has surprisingly become Ivan's favorite. According to reports from many domestic media, Ivan praised Wei Shihao in a recent media interview, almost praising him like a flower. Ivan praised Wei Shihao as an older brother in the national team, capable of playing an important role in passing on skills and experience. Wei Shihao also showed enough respect and support for Ivan Kozlovic, believing that he has the ability to lead the national team to qualify for the World Cup finals. Fans familiar with Wei Shihao know that such a situation was almost impossible in the past national team. In the eyes of previous national team coaches, Wei Shihao was not only a player who didn't talk much but also a rebellious problem youth. He not only disobeyed the coach's management but also often "fought bravely" in games, digging pits for the national team and becoming a big trouble for the team. He was known as the "thorn" of the national team. Therefore, whether it was Marcello Lippi before or his successor Li Tie, they didn't like Wei…

Since last year, the anti-corruption tide in the domestic sports world has been surging, wave after wave, with its momentum and scope drawing attention. Among various sports projects, many leaders responsible for preparing for the Olympics have been involved, undergoing investigations one after another. Among them, football has been the most affected project. Within the football field, more than a dozen leaders of the Football Association have been involved, and now they have basically been sentenced, receiving severe legal sanctions. Among these events, the most notable figure is Li Tie. This person, who once received much attention as the head coach of the national football team, was sentenced to 20 years in prison. However, Li Tie is not willing to accept this judgment and has chosen to appeal, trying to win the opportunity to reduce his sentence. Just one month after Li Tie's sentencing, the storm of anti-corruption in the domestic sports world began to affect the volleyball project, a situation that is truly sigh-inducing. According to detailed reports from authoritative official media such as CCTV News and People's Daily, Li Quanqiang, the former leader of the Chinese women's volleyball team and former director of the Volleyball Management Center of the General Administration of Sports, has been taken away for investigation. Li Quanqiang is considered the highest-ranking figure investigated in this round of anti-corruption within the domestic volleyball circle. It is worth mentioning that Li Quanqiang's predecessor, Pan Zhichen, was sentenced to four years in prison for bribery. Now that Li Quanqiang has also been taken away for investigation, this…
