Volume 1: Heroes Come and Go, People Pay Attention Chapter 6 FIFA’s Mortal Enemy (Second Update Guaranteed)

The Court of Arbitration for Sport is affiliated with the International Olympic Committee.

This is something everyone knows.

Although there is still an International Sports Arbitration Council in the International Court of Arbitration for Sports, this association is composed of celebrities from society and sports circles. Its mission is to protect the integrity of the Court of Arbitration for Sports and the rights of the parties, in terms of administrative management and finance. Responsible for supervising the International Court of Arbitration for Sport. In addition, the number of personnel designated by the International Olympic Committee has been reduced, and the number designated by organizations such as the Athletes' Commission has been increased to make this organization more broadly representative. Financially, the court has also begun to accept social sponsorship, rather than relying solely on the International Olympic Committee. .

But this is just a superficial phenomenon. Everyone knows that the International Court of Arbitration for Sports was established by the International Olympic Committee. No matter how it is reformed, the International Court of Arbitration for Sports will still be under the management of the International Olympic Committee formally and economically. No matter how much the CAS defends itself, it cannot change this fact.

In fact, the International Court of Arbitration for Sports has been shouldering an important mission since the day it was established, which is also the ambition of the International Olympic Committee.

That is to get involved in various individual sports organizations and increase the voice and influence of the International Olympic Committee in each individual event.

However, it is foolish to directly intervene in the affairs of individual organizations in the name of the International Olympic Committee to establish influence. Because this will definitely arouse protests and dissatisfaction from those individual organizations.

Any single organization, no matter how small, has its own dignity. Sex is what they care about most.

The International Olympic Committee is already a behemoth, and they are worried that their political autonomy will be taken away by the Olympic Committee. Therefore, I have always maintained a trace of vigilance and caution towards the Olympic Committee.

Perhaps Taipei’s individual sports organizations may be willing to join the Olympic Committee family, but the Olympic Committee looks down on them.

The Olympic Committee is all about fat.

Such as FIFA.

As the world's number one sport, football has an extraordinary global influence. The World Cup held by FIFA is no less important than the Olympic Games, and even more influential than the Olympic Games.

For a single sport to reach this point is already terrifying.

Therefore, FIFA has never opposed the International Olympic Committee.

In order to protect your own interests from being violated. FIFA and the Olympic Committee have always been on the same page - this is a relatively good situation. When things go wrong, the two sides are incompatible.

Why are all Olympic football matches played by national teams under the age of 23? This is the result of the game between FIFA and the Olympic Committee. Because the Olympic Games and the World Cup are both the two biggest sports events on the planet, and no other competition can compare with these two, FIFA has always been worried that the Olympic football competition will affect the World Cup. The Olympic Games and World Cup are held every four years. Their schedules are exactly spaced apart, taking turns every two years. If the adult national team is sent to the Olympics, how will the status of the World Cup be determined two years later? in international football. Is the Olympic gold medal more important, or is the World Cup more valuable?

In order to compete with the Olympic Games, FIFA stipulated that the national team participating in the Olympic Games must be a national team under the age of 23. After many disputes between the two sides, FIFA allowed up to three overage players to participate in the Olympics. Even so, in the Olympic Games, the football competition is absolutely useless.

For this reason, the National Olympic Committee is very unhappy with FIFA.

The same is true when it comes to doping. Initially, FIFA did not accept the International Olympic Committee's decision on player doping penalties. The two organizations have always had their own opinions and implemented their own standards. Even now. On the surface, everyone seems to be working well together, but in fact there are a lot of frictions.

Later, the conflict between the two parties further intensified.

The trigger was FIFA's "black gold scandal", because many FIFA executive committee members were involved in the black gold scandal. The International Olympic Committee overstepped its authority and said it would investigate three FIFA executive committee members. at the same time. The International Olympic Committee will also

c Requesting evidence of bribery from three FIFA executive committee members.

This kind of behavior of directly intervening in the other party's housework is done by the International Olympic Committee with confidence. Their reason is: Although all individual federations are independent organizations. However, as long as these organizations have neutral events in the Olympic Games, in order to ensure the purity of the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee has the right to intervene in the investigation.

The then President of the International Olympic Committee Rogge also criticized FIFA for being more humble when facing the gold scandal.

This tone of boss lecturing younger brother made FIFA very unhappy.

The conflict between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger.

But because of face, there was no falling out.

But the IOC's dissatisfaction with FIFA is growing.

They've been waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the right opportunity to step in.

The last time it intervened in the FIFA black gold scandal, it failed to deal with FIFA, which made the Olympic Committee deeply regretful.

Just then, the opportunity came.

The news about Chen Yingxiong's suspension was reported, and his agent Dracula even threatened to appeal the matter to the International Court of Arbitration for Sports!

God-given opportunity!

※※※

So what does Chen Yingxiong’s suspension crisis have to do with FIFA?

This has to start with current FIFA President Platini. That's a really, really, really long story.

After a long period of hard work, Platini was finally elected FIFA president.

He has reached the highest peak a politician can reach in football.

He dreams of finally no longer having to present awards to Chen Yingxiong at the Champions League and UEFA Ballon d'Or awards ceremonies. But he soon sadly discovered that he had to present an award to Chen Yingxiong at the FIFA Ballon d'Or...

Chen Yingxiong has become the only king-level superstar in world football. Winning awards is a common occurrence for him.

Platini's hatred for Chen Yingxiong did not weaken at all with his success.

Because Chen Yingxiong never stopped provoking Platini.

After becoming familiar with the relationship between Chen Yingxiong and Platini, everyone can understand the relationship between his suspension and FIFA.

FIFA strongly supports the English Football Association's ban on Chen Yingxiong. A two-year ban would be even more supportive.

If they hadn't been able to directly override the English FA, FIFA would have been eager to directly finalize the penalty result.

But this does not prevent them from expressing their support for the English Football Association in various public occasions.

Platini and other dignitaries lined up to express their views on the matter in front of reporters. Without exception, they all demand that Chen Yingxiong be severely punished and the purity of football and the image of professional players be maintained.

FIFA's attitude on this matter is very obvious. They and the English Football Association always wear the same pants.

Now Platini hates Chen Yingxiong for not doing this during the national team game, otherwise he would have dared to issue an order to ban Chen Yingxiong for life!

FIFA is so enthusiastic about this matter, which gives the International Olympic Committee, which intends to intervene in FIFA's internal affairs, a good opportunity.

But this opportunity did not exist until Dracula announced that they would appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

Because according to the rules, if one party does not take the initiative to appeal to the International Court of Arbitration for Sports, the International Court of Arbitration for Sports is not qualified to intervene.

But once one party files a lawsuit, the International Court of Arbitration for Sports can officially start the arbitration process.

At this time, the International Olympic Committee can intervene, and do so openly!

On the second day of Dracula's press conference, the spokesperson of the International Court of Arbitration for Sport talked about this matter in an interview with reporters.

He did not clearly support whom, but his content made it clear to everyone who he supported.

"CAS has always been committed to protecting the self-interests of athletes, and does not hesitate to be enemies of those huge sports organizations. This is our mission and honor. As long as the hero appeals to CAS, then we will definitely take over. We I will never let any bad person go, but I will never wrongly accuse any good person.”

He just said directly: "Hero, come and apply for arbitration! We will definitely help you win this lawsuit!"

※※※

The statement of the International Court of Arbitration for Sport indeed caused panic on the part of the English Football Association, or it caused panic on the part of FIFA, who put pressure on the English Football Association.

Then the Football Association of England contacted Liverpool Club privately and expressed its willingness to discuss Chen Yingxiong's suspension period.

They thought that since they took the initiative to find the other party, the other party would follow suit and agreed to have a good talk with them. After all, don’t they just want the suspension period to be reduced? At that time, we delayed it for half a year with them, and then promised to reduce it to one year. In fact, it was still a one-and-a-half-year ban...

Unexpectedly, they were rejected by Liverpool Football Club.

The answer they received was that Chen Yingxiong's agent had appealed the matter to the International Court of Arbitration for Sport, so Liverpool Club was helpless.

One day later, Dracula proved to the world that he was not just practicing, and also proved to the Football Association of England that Liverpool did not lie.

Because the International Court of Arbitration for Sports officially announced that it would accept Chen Yingxiong’s appeal application and open an investigation. At the same time, they have sent a copy of the arbitration application and its attachments as well as the court's list of arbitrators to the other party to the dispute, which is the English Football Association.

Although FIFA tried every means to prevent the behemoth of the International Olympic Committee from entering. But now it's too late, the International Olympic Committee has already reached out.

Those who play with fire will die. Platini couldn't have imagined that he just supported the English Football Association to clean up the heroes, and he actually attracted such a terrible monster to himself!

He felt as if I had been shot even while lying down.
