During an interview with The TeamSenator Michel Savin thus questioned the sums received by the former manager of Olympique de Marseille.

“How can his salary have tripled when as president of the League he has fewer missions since all the commercial and marketing aspects have been transferred to the commercial company?” pointed out the parliamentarian from Isère. He is referring here to the creation of the commercial company responsible for marketing the TV rights of the French championships, also chaired by Vincent Labrune.

“Excessive confidence in the League”

Michel Savin was also concerned about the lack of flow of information to club presidents, particularly on the issue of the agreement between CVC and the LFP, whose company must pay 13% of its revenue in exchange for the 1.5 billion euros placed on the table by the fund. “The clubs seem to have placed excessive trust in the League and they are not around the table with CVC within the commercial company, there are only representatives of the League and CVC. What is the power of the League?” the senator continues.

The latter finally showed himself to be doubtful about the potential creation of a channel by the League, in the event that no agreement is reached with traditional broadcasters to broadcast the next Ligue 1 season. “If the LFP creates it , there will be no money until December. How are clubs going to pay salaries between now and then? »

The TAD disqualifies Pedro Rocha, president of the RFEF, for two years

Published

By

Two days after the Spanish football team won the European Championship, the Administrative Court of Sport (TAD) has decided to disqualify the president of the Spanish Football Federation, Pedro Rocha, for two years. A decision that implies that Rocha will have to leave his post immediately, unless the precautionary measures that he will surely request before the ordinary courts are successful.

Although the proposed sanction was six years (three different two-year ones), the TAD has finally decided to disqualify him for two years for having fired the person who was the general secretary of the Federation, Andrew FieldsIt is worth remembering the paradox that Camps’ dismissal was a demand of the Government, specifically of Víctor Francos, former president of the CSD. His head was one of those demanded in the ‘Oliva mutiny’ organised by the players of the women’s team after the ‘Rubiales case’.

“I am accused of exceeding my functions by making decisions that the Higher Sports Council itself requested, such as the termination of the contract of the former general secretary [Andreu Camps]with which the interested party also agreed“Rocha defended himself a few days ago in an interview with Prensa Ibérica, regarding the disqualification that has finally taken place.

The proposed sanctions for not using external counsel Thomas Gonzalez Cueto and for representing the RFEF in the judicial process investigating alleged corruption during the presidency of Luis Rubiales, they are finally left in a fine of 16,000 euros for each of these acts.

This sanction is due to a complaint from the president of the CENAFE coaching school, Miguel Galán, who was referred to the TAD by the Higher Sports CouncilAfter three months of investigation, this court has determined that Rocha committed an abuse of power during his long period as president of the RFEF management committee, a position he assumed after Luis Rubiales, of whom he was economic vice president, was forced to resign.

Who will lead the RFEF?

Unless ordinary justice now says otherwise, Maria Angeles Garcia ‘Yaye’ She would now assume the presidency of the RFEF until ordinary elections for the presidency are held, already called for the month of September. Rocha would not be able to stand in these elections while her disqualification remained in force. In April, she appointed a new board of directors made up of 20 people in which the former footballer from Extremadura was designated as deputy vice president, and, therefore, number two in the organisation.

The TAD has waited until the end of the Euro Cup and its celebrations to disqualify Pedro Rocha, who has been in the front row in Germany at all times. He was the first to get off the plane that brought the team to Spain and appeared in the photo with the tournament, sharing the stage with Álvaro Morata, captain of the team, and Luis de la Fuente, national coach. Pedro Rocha’s team has also been concerned to ensure that it has the support of national institutions such as LaLiga and the women’s F League, In addition to FIFA and UEFA, at the international level.

“I do not know what interests are behind this file, whose arguments do not respond to common sense or the law, but rather to a political intention to intervene. in a Federation that is pacified, stabilized and immersed in a European Championship and in the organization of a World Cup“, Rocha justified in statements to Prensa Ibérica.

The sudden death of Chinese badminton player Zhang Zhijie during a match in Indonesia has attracted attention from the outside world. Olympic champion Guido and Olympic bronze medalist Zheng Zaicheng, who also died of heart disease-related diseases many years ago, were mentioned again. As a sport loved by all people, what should we pay attention to when playing?

Zhang Zhijie suddenly fainted during a match on June 30 and was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead at 11:20 pm that day. Two weeks later, although Zhang Zhijie’s relatives have arrived in Indonesia, due to problems such as procedures and follow-up matters, Zhang Zhijie’s body is still in the morgue of the local hospital.

In an interview, the Indonesian Minister of Health said that Zhang Zhijie could have been saved, but the tragedy could not be avoided due to the limited local medical insurance level and professional capabilities of medical staff.

Lianhe Zaobao interviewed Dr Davinder Singh, medical director, senior consultant in cardiology and cardiac electrophysiologist at Cadence Heart Centre under the Beyond Medical Group, about the stress that tennis, volleyball, badminton, basketball, football and table tennis can put on the body.

Dr Davinder Singh compared six sports in terms of heart rate, maximum oxygen uptake (VO₂ max), and energy expenditure; based on the different cardiovascular demands of each sport on the body, the intensity rankings from lightest to heaviest are: volleyball, table tennis, tennis, basketball, badminton (singles), and football.

“Badminton (singles) is an intense sport that requires high levels of agility, speed and endurance. It requires quick reactions and rapid changes of direction, which can cause significant stress on the cardiovascular system,” said Dr. Davinder Singh.

He mentioned that if any of the following conditions are met, it is recommended to seek medical evaluation before participating in badminton singles competitions to reduce the risk of disease.

The three conditions are: 1. Middle-aged (40 years old and above); 2. Having cardiovascular disease (such as arrhythmia and history of heart disease); 3. Having cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, smoking, etc.).

Dr Davinder Singh added: “Vigorous exercise may cause arrhythmias or even heart attacks in people with a history of heart disease. Cardiac arrest is also a known risk for those with underlying heart disease who engage in vigorous exercise. Therefore, these people should consult a cardiologist to assess whether they are suitable for high-endurance sports such as badminton.”

Before any intense exercise, be sure to warm up adequately, including stretching, jogging, and some arm swings and lunges to prepare your muscles and joints for movement. Do not exercise if you have any signs of discomfort before you start, such as unusual fatigue, chest pain, or shortness of breath.

There are three first aid methods for sudden fainting events

What should you do if someone suddenly faints during exercise? Should you wait for professionals to arrive before you seek first aid?

Dr. Davinder Singh said there are three first aid methods for sudden fainting. The first is to ensure that the patient lies flat in a safe position and elevate his legs to improve blood flow to the brain. The second is to check the response and breathing. If the patient is not breathing or has no pulse, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) should be performed immediately and an automated external defibrillator (AED) should be used.

While waiting for medical professionals to arrive, continue to monitor the patient and perform CPR if necessary.
