The World Cup is in full swing, Chinese soccer's big one after another to "go in".

On November 26, the Hubei Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision announced on its website that Li Tie, former coach of the national soccer team, was suspected of serious violations of the law and had begun to undergo an investigation by the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the Central Sports Administration and the Hubei Provincial Supervision Commission.

For some time, news about Li Tie was all over the place, with news that he was the richest coach in the country, with deposits of more than 100 million in a bank in Shenyang.

In fact, before Li Tie's accident, and even during his tenure as coach of the national soccer team, he had advertised on his personal microblog several times, and he was not worried about his identity. His capital field has also been exposed, with a total of nine enterprises, six of which hold shares. It can be seen that Li Tie is very good at doing business.

With the media digging deeper and deeper, Li Tie's "black spot" is also more and more, was "pulled down" Chinese soccer people are also constantly being exposed.

Rumor has it that Li Tie's annual salary increased from $2 million to $6 million, and that Li Tie's agency cut $3 million from the $6 million.

Then public opinion festered like crazy, saying Zhang Lu was taken away for faking a game...

Now comes another heavy bomb. On the evening of December 7, Beijing time, the news about another man being taken away in connection with the Li Tie case was all over the news. Later, media sources said Zheng Bin was the man taken away for investigation.

Who is Zheng Bin, born in 1977? He is also from Wuhan. He was the main left wing player of the national team under Alihan and Zhu Guanghu. He went to Brazil with Li Tie for experience.

After retirement, Zheng Bin in 2012 began to serve as a coach, joined Hebei Huaxia Happiness in 2015, began to serve as Li Tie's assistant. After the two "inseparable" until March this year, Zheng Bin became the technical director of Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, only to be separated again.

In other words, Zheng Bin's entire coaching career is almost all spent with Li Tie, due to such a close relationship, there have long been rumors that Zheng Bin may be in trouble.

In fact, Zheng Bin has been taken away before, but has since returned to the public eye. However, sources said that Zheng Bin was handcuffed this time and seemed to have a hard time severing his ties with Li Tie.

What's even more outrageous is that there are rumors in the jungle that Li Tie coaches the club and national team and is mainly engaged in resources and peripheral work. The technical and tactical aspects of soccer and troop arrangements rely entirely on Zheng Bin...

Now, such rumors are not impossible. After all, Zheng Bin likes to study business and has a strong expertise in the field of soccer, while Li Tie's tactical literacy in front of the public seems to be quite good "childish".

Looking back on the journey of the national football team in the World Preliminary Cup, it is even more so that people look back on the "extreme fear".

In January 2020, Li Tie officially became the head coach of the national soccer team. Before that, the naturalization policy was booming. After Li Tie took over, the naturalized players were not reused and they played well in the first 12 games. At that time, many fans suspected that Li Tie was in the middle of it.

Predictably, there is a darkness behind Li Tie's case that Chinese fans cannot imagine. No one knows how many Chinese soccer insiders he will serve and how many earthquakes he will cause.

Grief is greater than death. Perhaps Chinese fans have become numb to it. Some people have found photos of Li Tie, Zheng Bin and Chen Xuyuan watching the game together. Two of the three are already inside, and the only thing left is "spared"?
