Guoan faced Taishan team at home in this round of the Chinese Super League, and the team's veteran Yu Dabao became the focus player in this game. What embarrassed Yu Dabao was that he became the focus, not because of how well he performed, but because of a controversial blow. In order to stabilize the team's 2-0 lead, Guoan coach Suarez decisively replaced the experienced Yu Dabao. Yu Dabao was mainly responsible for defense when he came off the bench and defused Wu Xinghan's close-range shot.
At that time, Wu Xinghan's shot was blocked by Yu Dabao. Shandong fans felt through the replay that Yu Dabao blocked Wu Xinghan's shot with his hands, and the referee should give the Taishan team a penalty. Unexpectedly, after the referee passed the VAR replay, he determined that Yu Dabao did not intentionally handball. He may think that Yu Dabao touched the ball in his chest, and then bounced back to Yu Dabao's arm, not that Dabao deliberately handballed.
According to the latest rules, the handball displayed in Dabao cannot constitute a penalty. Therefore, the referee did not give Luneng a penalty. This controversy naturally caused dissatisfaction among Luneng fans. Luneng fans believe that the team's 0-2 defeat to Guoan in this game is indeed a bad performance of the players, and they definitely admit this. It's just that the referee didn't award a penalty foul to Dabao, which was definitely a misjudgment.
In fact, the Football Association will definitely intervene in this controversy. The Football Association has set up a review group of the adjudication committee this season, which will focus on reviewing the controversial penalties in each round of Chinese Super League matches, and at the same time announce the verification results as soon as possible. Yu Dabao worked hard to solve the siege this time, and there is indeed a certain controversy about whether he should blow a penalty. Then, it is a matter of time before the Football Association officially intervenes.
At that time, the Football Association will determine that Yu Dabao will resolve the dispute from a fair and objective point of view, if it is indeed a misjudgment by the referee, then the Football Association will impose internal penalties on the referee, in order to give the Taishan team a justice. Finally, I hope that the players and coaches of the Taishan team will not be affected by this controversy and can perform well in the following games, so as to play the next round of the Chinese Super League home game against Shenhua.
