China rebels against its players' tattoos

It is common to see a large number of players around the world exhibiting their tattoos in soccer matches that are broadcast on television worldwide... but this will not happen in the Chinese national team.

The Asian country with deeply rooted ancient traditions is against this tattoo trend that even their own soccer players have succumbed to, but the Chinese government is not willing to stand idly by.

Morality, the weight of tradition, and strict customs in conservative Chinese society that mark the daily life of its citizens also have direct effects on sports in general, and soccer in particular.

The latest decision will affect players who have tattoos on their bodies. The Chinese Football Federation will prohibit players from showing tattoos in national team matches in order to promote a healthy culture under the new morality law promoted by the communist government in Beijing.

Already in the last international match against Wales, where China was defeated 0-6 in the China Cup, several Chinese footballers covered their tattoos to prevent them from being seen in the television broadcast; some did it with bandages and others chose to play with long-sleeved shirts.

China has embarked on a new crusade against symbols of Western culture in order to preserve its morality and more traditional ways of life. At the moment, it is unknown whether this measure will affect domestic competitions, where, until now, footballers have displayed their tattoos normally.
