Part 4/7:
The overwhelming number of matches leads to a decline in the quality of play. Teams are often forced to rest their key players during less significant games, thus affecting the overall competitive integrity of the league. The relentless schedule fosters an environment where teams cannot maintain high performance levels, resulting in many games lacking excitement and emotional engagement for viewers.
This issue is compounded when considering the broader landscape of entertainment. With a plethora of options available, from streaming services to esports, soccer must compete for viewer attention. However, simply increasing the number of games is not a solution. Instead, the focus should be on enhancing the quality of games.
