On April 23, Beijing time, Russian international Kokolin revealed in an interview that Ronaldo refused to exchange jerseys with his teammates 8 years ago. At that time, the result of losing 0-1 to Russia in the World Cup qualifiers made the depressed Ronaldo refuse to exchange jersey requests with Russian defender Kangbarov after the game. As a witness, Kokolin bluntly stated that Ronaldo's behavior was "very ugly".
It is worth noting that in the last season when Juventus defeated Chivo 3-0, Ronaldo once again refused to exchange jerseys with his opponent. At that time, because Chivo's old goalkeeper Sorrentino saved Ronaldo's penalty, President Ronaldo "break his promise" after the game chose not to exchange jerseys with him.
As we all know, exchanging jerseys after the game is a friendly move by both sides in international football games, but in fact, strange things about refusing to exchange jerseys have also happened frequently. Unfortunately, the Chinese men's football team has encountered such a thing many times.
2002 World Cup group stage, the Chinese men's football team lost 0-4 to the Brazilian men's football team. After the game, Chinese main defender Wu Chengying wanted to exchange jerseys, but was flatly rejected by Brazilian captain Kafu, and the "Alien" Ronaldo also rejected the request of national football team captain Ma Mingyu to exchange jerseys.
Coincidentally, in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the Chinese men's football team met the Brazilian men's football team again in the group stage, and the Brazilian Olympic team led by Ronaldo and Pato once again collectively rejected the request of Chinese Olympic players to exchange jerseys. So what exactly causes the Brazilian men's football team to resist exchanging jerseys with the Chinese men's football team?
Things start with the incident when the Brazilian League giants Palmeiras came to China to play the business match in 1995. In the game with Dalian, Palmeiras defender Kafu and international Li Ming had friction. After the game, Kafu took the initiative to hand over the jersey to Li Ming to show his friendship, but Li Ming, who was dissatisfied, spitted phlegm on his clothes and threw it on the ground. Because of this incident, the Brazilian men's football team has been "restless" with the Chinese team.
not only in the national team, but also in the club field Chinese players have also encountered similar embarrassment. In the summer of 2011, Evergrande lost to Real Madrid 1-7 in a warm-up match. After the game, Evergrande foreign players Paulon and Muric both got the jerseys of Pepe and the current Arsenal No. 10 player respectively. However, when Evergrande No. 7 Feng Junyan exchanged jerseys with Real Madrid scorer Higuain, the latter flatly rejected it. This incident also caused considerable controversy after the game.
Of course, Chinese players have been refused to exchange jerseys, and have also been in the past when they actively refuse to exchange jerseys. International player Zhao Xuri is one of them. In the warm-up match of the Chinese national football team losing 0-1 away to Spain in June 2012, Zhao Xuri's outstanding performance won the respect of Spanish big-name stars.
After the game, Barcelona superstar Xavi took the initiative to exchange jerseys with Zhao Xuri. However, what surprised everyone was that Zhao Xuri actually refused. It’s not that “Zhao Yijiao” was a big shot and didn’t want to change jerseys, but that the national team had regulations that they were not allowed to exchange jerseys, because the national team would have to go to Wuhan to play games. If they exchange jerseys, they would have no clothes to wear when they arrived in Wuhan. I believe Zhao Xuri must have had a lot of regrets when she didn't get the "original" jersey.
Of course, players have more or less their own reasons for refusing to exchange jerseys and cannot morally kidnap them. I believe that Chinese players will only be truly avoided in the future, just like Zhao Xuri, who truly wins the respect of their opponents on the court and is refused to exchange jerseys.
