Political propaganda continues in China during the health crisis. She even quickens her pace. L'AFP reveals that the Chinese Football Super League teams, confined in two separate “bubbles” for the first phase of the championship, in Dalian (north-east) and Suzhou, near Shanghai (east), sometimes spend their free time workshops " of learning and education” organized by the Chinese Communist Party. These activities are offered to players, management of the 16 teams, and even referees, who are members of the party or aspire to become one. More than a dozen players and members of Shanghai SIPG were photographed last week sitting at a table, pen in hand, with a flag of the Communist Party hanging on the wall of the room. The Henan Jianye players, for their part, were treated to a group screening of a film in praise of Xi Jiping, the Chinese President, and his love for football. “ The Chinese Super League is in full swing, but the work of party building at the grassroots level in Dalian and Suzhou continues., explained the professional football league in a press release. The 16 teams are isolated in two health bubbles for a period of 70 days.
