00:00Before watching the video, I want to remind you that there is more content on the Hot Spot website.
00:05In the summer of 2024, the whole world is immersed in the heat of the Olympics.
00:10When the athletes are working hard to sweat on the field,
00:13the audience will cheer.
00:16However, the day before, in Paris, before the Eiffel Tower,
00:19the Zen-Olympic football match took place on a completely different screen.
00:23In France, the men's football match against China,
00:26this match requires the audience to remain silent,
00:29not to make any noise,
00:31and not to clap or cheer.
00:34Yes, no shouting, no applause. Why?
00:37Because this is a blind football match played by the referees.
00:42You have to listen to the sound to identify the position.
00:45And the audience can only clap and cheer a little when the match is paused.
00:50The whole official match experience is very different.
00:52And before the official match, the stadium will broadcast in different languages,
00:56asking the audience to remain silent.
00:58And on the big screens on both sides,
01:00the audience will be silenced by the sound of the word shh.
01:03Maybe many of you don't know why the blind football match needs absolute silence.
01:08Let me give you a brief explanation of the rules of this sports event.
01:11There will be five people in a team in the blind football match,
01:14including one goalkeeper.
01:15He is the only one who is visually healthy and does not need to wear a blindfold.
01:20The other four goalkeepers need to wear a blindfold to ensure complete fairness.
01:25The blind football match is different from other sports events.
01:29In addition to the need for complete silence during the match,
01:32the athletes on the field can make all kinds of sounds.
01:35Because the blind players need to talk to each other,
01:38deploy offensive and defensive,
01:40which is quite a test of teamwork.
01:42In addition, there will also be a bell on the football match
01:44to let the players hear the sound to identify the position.
01:47The blind players can't rely on their eyesight,
01:49so their hearing becomes as important as their footwork.
01:53The person in charge of the blind football match said
01:57they are still trying to find a way to educate the audience.
02:00Because most people are still relatively unfamiliar with the blind football sport.
02:04Unlike other sports events,
02:06the audience can make a sound of praise.
02:08Here, even the sound of wow must be restrained.
02:11No matter how exciting the match is,
02:13the audience must hold their breath and remain silent.
