一 | FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Lionel Messi is evidently going back to China, after Inter Miami took advantage of not making the Major League Soccer playoffs by signing a deal to play two exhibitions there next month.The team said it would play a pair of friendlies against Chinese Super League teams, first in Qingdao, China against Qingdao Hainiu on Nov. 5 and then against Chengdu Rongcheng in Chengdu, China on Nov. 8. Those two stadiums can both hold between 50,000 and 60,000 fans.Those dates coincide with the first round of the MLS playoffs. Inter Miami was eliminated from playoff contention earlier this month.Inter Miami's announcement of the deal did not specifically mention Messi or any other player, though it would be surprising if Chinese officials agreed to the games without some sort of guarantee that the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner and the team's other best-known standouts — Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba among them — would be making the trip if physically able.“This will be a great opportunity to continue building on our 2023 campaign, in which we achieved our first-ever trophy,” Inter Miami sporting director and chief soccer officer Chris Henderson said in a release distributed by the team. "We will take this as an opportunity to begin our preparations for 2024, as we look to build on last season and find more success moving forward.”If Messi — who led Argentina to the World Cup title last year — plays, it would be at least the eighth time he has traveled to China for exhibitions for club or country since 2005. Ticket for all previous Messi appearances have sold at a wild pace in China, a nation that has a massive soccer following even without much in the way of global success by the men's national team. China's women made the World Cup final in 1999, falling to the U.S. in a penalty-kick shootout to decide the title at the Rose Bowl in California.Messi has played in China as recently as this past June, shortly after he stunned much of the soccer world by announcing that he was signing a 2 1/2-year contract worth around $150 million to come to MLS and play for Inter Miami. He scored barely one minute into a match for Argentina against Australia in Beijing on June 15, and later was surprised by fan — one wearing a Messi jersey — somehow getting onto the field to ask for a hug.Messi also won Olympic gold in China, helping Argentina win the title at the Beijing Games in 2008. He and Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham have enormous followings in Asia, along with several endorsement deals in the region.This is the first international tour for Inter Miami, which is about to end its fourth MLS season. The team won the Leagues Cup this season, doing so shortly after Messi began playing for Inter Miami in July.The team didn't reveal television or ticket information. The lowest-priced seats for Messi's appearance at Beijing in June were listed at $80 and the highest-priced were around $670 at face value; if the price points for that match are similar to what's set on this tour, the two matches could generate well over $20 million in ticket revenue alone.That suggests this trip could be another major financial win for Inter Miami. MLS officials said Messi's jersey has been the league's top seller in 2023 — even though it wasn't on sale until July — and the team has told its season ticket holders that it plans to increase prices dramatically for the 2024 season.“We’re very excited to continue to expand our club's global reach, bringing our team to play in front of incredible fans across the globe," Inter Miami chief business officer Xavier Asensi said in remarks distributed by the club. "This is a special opportunity to share the passion as we reach new audiences and put ourselves on display in new places, and we’re looking forward to beginning this adventure.”Inter Miami finishes its MLS season this week with matches against Charlotte on Wednesday and Saturday. Messi is currently with Argentina's national team for World Cup qualifying and — given that nothing is at stake — it would seem unlikely that he'll appear in either of the final two MLS matches of the season for his club.The team hasn't publicly revealed plans for any other international tours for 2024, but others are expected given Messi's enormous global popularity.___AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer。 SBS '뉴스헌터스' 무인 인형뽑기방에서 인형 약 750개를 훔친 14세 여학생 3명이 경찰에 붙잡혔다. 26일 SBS ‘뉴스헌터스’에는 경남 진주경찰서가 절도 혐의로 A양 등 14세 여학생 3명을 체포해 조사 중이라고 전다. 이들은 지난 2월 경남 진주시 한 무인 인형뽑기방에서 두꺼운 종이를 기계 안으로 밀어 넣어 인형을 여러개 훔친 혐의를 받는다. 매장 폐쇄회로(CC)TV에는 이들이 두꺼운 종이를 인형뽑기 기계 안으로 밀어 넣은 뒤 좌우로 움직여 인형을 쓸어 담는 모습이 고스란히 찍혔다. 이들은 이런 방식으로 한 번에 인형 30여개를 꺼내 바닥에 늘어놓은 뒤 가방에 차곡차곡 담았다. 이들은 다른 손님이 들어오면 거울을 보거나 노래를 듣는 척하며 기다리다가 손님이 자리를 뜬 뒤 범행을 재개했다. 점주는 섞일 수 없는 위치의 인형들이 뒤섞여 있고, 매장 곳곳에서 두꺼운 종이가 발견되자 CCTV를 확인했다. 점주가 CCTV 영상을 확인한 시점을 기준으로 일주일 동안 여학생들은 매장을 16차례 찾았다. 하루에 네 차례나 범행을 벌인 날도 있었다. CCTV 보관 기간이 일주일밖에 되지 않는데다 범행 도구로 보이는 종이가 매장 내에서 이전부터 발견됐던 만큼 실제 범행 횟수는 더 많을 것으로 추정된다. 학생들은 신고를 받고 출동한 경찰에 현행범으로 체포됐다. 당시 이들은 꺼낸 인형들을 매장 바닥에 펼쳐놓고 살펴보던 중이었다. A씨가 CCTV 등을 통해 추산한 도난 인형은 약 750개로, 피해액은 약 600만원에 이른다. 이들은 훔친 인형을 중고거래 플랫폼에서 판매한 것으로 알려졌다. A씨는 자신이 매장에서 취급하는 것과 같은 인형을 판매하는 온라인 게시글을 캡처해 경찰에 증거로 제출했다. 사건 발생 한 달 뒤쯤 학생들의 부모와 만난 자리에서 부모들은 “아이들이 어려서 뭘 모르고 그랬다”는 취지로 이야기했다고 한다. 학생들 부모들은 경찰 조사 과정에서 “이번 일을 깊이 반성하고 있으며 다른 사람에게 피해를 주는 일이 없도록 세심하게 지도하겠다”, “불미스러운 일을 저질러 진심으로 반성하고 있다. 원만하게 합의할 기회를 달라”는 입장을 전한 걸로 알려졌다. 이어 "피해액 600만원이면 금값이 한 돈에 70만원일 때를 기준으로 약 열 돈에 해당한다"며 "금은방에서 금 열 돈을 훔쳤다면 처벌받았을 텐데, 학생들이 어리다는 이유로 봉사나 교육만 받고 끝나는 것은 이해하기 어렵다"고 호소했다. 경찰 측은 해당 발언에 대해 "지난 2월 발생한 일이라 현재로서는 확인하기 어렵다"며 "당시 상황과 피해자가 받아들인 입장이 다를 수 있어 구체적인 답변을 내놓기 곤란하다"고 밝혔다.。
