Hong Kong authorities will study tightening sponsorship requirements for mega events, after football superstar Lionel Messi failed to play in a widely anticipated friendly on Sunday.
在足球巨星莱昂内尔·梅西未能参加于周日举行的一场备受期待的友谊赛之后，香港特区有关部门将研究收紧大型赛事的赞助要求。
Messi sat out of the friendly match due to an inflamed hamstring.

And the organizer Tatler Asia had promoted Messi extensively in the weeks leading up to the match, which attracted fans from across the region.

It received about $1.92 million in funds for the match on top of a venue subsidy.

Tatler Asia has expressed disappointment that Messi did not play, claiming that it wasn't informed of his non-participation.

"About 10 minutes before the match ended, the organizer Tatler Asia confirmed that Messi could not play.
“比赛结束前大约10分钟，主办方Tatler Asia证实了梅西无法参赛的消息。
We therefore immediately request them to explore other remedies, such as Messi appearing in the field to interact with his fans and receiving the trophy.
因此，我们立即要求他们寻求其他补救措施，比如让梅西在场地上与球迷互动，并领取奖杯。
Unfortunately, as you all see, this did not work out.
很遗憾，正如你们所看到的，最终这并没有成行。
We will take into account the experience of this incident, and we will further work with the Major Sports Events Committee to further improve our 'M' Mark system.
我们会根据这次事件的经验，进一步与大型体育活动事务委员会合作，进一步改善我们的“M”品牌制度。
We will continue our efforts to promote more major events to be held in Hong Kong."
