On February 8, Beijing time, the incident that Messi was absent from the Miami China trip was still simmering. Although Messi gave a public interview after arriving in Japan, he posted that he was not feeling well and did not have a serious injury. So he did not appear on the stage, but when he came to Japan, he was able to dribble for 33 minutes as a substitute, connected with the team, and made a threatening shot. He looked calm and relaxed on the court, not feeling well as Messi said, and Messi's Chinese website posted on the social platform, Messi missed the game in Hong Kong, China because of a groin injury.
According to authoritative medical experts, he has the least groin injury and needs to rest for 2-3 weeks, but Messi appeared in the Japanese game, undoubtedly hitting Chinese fans in the face and himself. As for Messi's series of actions, Huo Qigang also condemned it very much. He wrote many times on social platforms that Messi would be violating sportsmanship and related contractual issues if he did not play on a Chinese trip without being injured. Huo Qigang believes that Messi and Miami International need to make relevant apologies and explanations, otherwise they will not stop, and they also need to give a public response to the entire Hong Kong fan community.
Unexpectedly, Huo Qigang expressed his attitude on the social platform in turn, but was besieged by fans. Huo Qigang's posts on social platforms were also synchronized to a number of overseas accounts and were attacked by a large number of foreign fans who believed that Huo Qigang should not criticize Messi, mainly because of the responsibility of the organizers. Many fans also said that this time the organizer is your brother. When will you apologize on behalf of the host? Some fans use foul language directly, saying that your wife Guo Jingjing is also an athlete. If she can't play because of injuries, will you still attack like this? I have to say that these fans are simply lost by the star and do not know the truth of the matter.
Messi himself is not really injured, but a blast injury, he can miss the game in Hong Kong, China, but be able to re-appear in Japan a few days later, is it just the cause of injury? I don't have my own personal opinion on the competition in Hong Kong, China, so we can see from the words of these netizens that they are obviously brainless to wash the white for Messi and do not pay attention to the truth of the matter.
What Huo Qigang has always stressed is that Messi has no respect for the fans, and Messi is unwilling to play football on stage, and in the end, he is not even willing to speak or make amends. These nuances are enough to reflect Messi's disdain for fans in Hong Kong, China. With regard to the details of the contract, the Hong Kong Culture and Tourism Bureau once said publicly that Messi had to play for at least 45 minutes, but Miami International did not make any response. The organizers also deducted 16 million of the subsidy, and Miami International did not have any opinions, and they were also completely wrong, so as Huo Qigang, he also dared to speak out, pursue the matter to the end, and speak for the fans of Hong Kong, China. He shouldn't be attacked like this, and Huo Jingjing has won countless honors for the Chinese diving team, and he respects his career very much. As for playing with injuries, basketball players like Jordan and Kobe Bryant have the most say.
Kobe Bryant once said that many fans may only come to the scene to watch the game once in their lives. They don't know how long it takes them to save money to go to the game. Even if they are injured, they will play to meet their wishes. Will Messi blush if he hears these words? Many fans also said that some people are dead but still alive, while others are already dead. What do friends think of this?
