On May 29, according to Shandong media personality Zuo Haitao, if the national soccer team loses to Thailand, then the entire soccer industry may take a pay cut in the future.
Zuo Haitao said about the June 6 match between China and Thailand, "The result of this match may affect the salary of Chinese men's soccer players in the future to some extent. If we win, it's not bad; if we draw, it's acceptable; but if we lose, believe my speculation, the salaries of Chinese men's soccer players are likely to continue to decline in the future.""
Due to the aforementioned high priority now being placed on this fight, if you lose at home, a pay cut is very likely."
