Preface
The recent football circle is really too lively, two days ago the Chinese Football Association released, 6 misjudgments in the football league, one of which is about, Shanghai Port and Meizhou Hakka, this game Shanghai Port won 2-1 against Meizhou Hakka, becoming the half-way champion.
But I never expected that the two goals of Shanghai Port were judged invalid after the game, but they did not change the final result, and the fans did not understand what it meant, it was a statement but it was useless, just when the fans sighed that the profit side of this time, how was it Shanghai Port again, the harbor fans were not happy.
directly a backhand, the Chinese Football Association complained, the reason is that the harbor fans questioned that the Chinese Football Association used the video of "other channels" to determine whether the invalid goal of the harbor was compliant, they believe that the harbor is also a victim of this time, and Chinese football should apologize to the fans who insist on watching the Chinese Super League!
Things reviewed
The whole thing is actually very simple, that is, in the 7th round of the Chinese Super League on June 18, Meizhou Hakka played at home against Shanghai Port, although Shanghai Port won the game in the end, but the verdict on the goal still aroused some fans' questions, and these circumstances were also checked by the Football Association.
The final statement was released that both goals were invalid, which not only aroused widespread discussion and attention from fans and the media, but also exposed the problems in the current Chinese Super League in the use of refereeing and VAR technology.
Appeal FIFA
All goals in a game are violated, which should be a very embarrassing thing for the beneficiary Shanghai Port, after all, as long as the result does not change, he is the profitee, which has caused dissatisfaction among the Port fans, and released a screenshot of the complaint, but about the content of the complaint, it is really embarrassing.
As we all know, when the game is in progress, the referee cannot use the third-party video as the basis for the judgment, which will affect the result of the whole game.
However, given that the Chinese Football Association only released a statement to the public, but did not make public the detailed video footage of whether the first goal should be ruled invalid, this lack of conclusive evidence to support this conclusion is naturally prone to criticism from the outside world.
His complaint about the Harbour team's second goal was a bit confusing, and he first raised an old story that was not directly related to the goal itself, namely the fact that the SIPG player fell to the ground in the 9th minute of the game and was not awarded a penalty, in an attempt to use this as an argument to question the legitimacy of the goal.
He believes that since the referee did not award a penalty for the fall of the SIPG player in the 9th minute, there should not have been a foul in the subsequent goal. However, this reasoning is clearly a change of concept, and there is no direct causal relationship between the two events.
In fact, for the goal in the 9th minute, the referee on duty did not award a penalty, nor did he cancel Wu Lei's goal. The point mentioned here by the fan is correct, but his logic has deviated when applying this criterion to the second goal. A foul is a foul, and it doesn't change whether the referee blows the penalty or not.
"Justice Delayed"
In fact, about this statement of the Football Association, on the surface, it may be thought that this is "late justice", but if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be the case, first of all, this review did not change the result of the game, which is not much different from not being issued, but it is issued, which will cause dissatisfaction on both sides.
For example, in the case of the first "handball decision" in the match between the "Harbour team and the Meizhou team", the official admitted that "the VAR (video assistant referee) did not intervene when it could not clearly show the image of the Harbour team's arm in contact with the ball, so it should not be regarded as a mistake".
So, should broadcasters be asked to provide more cameras and sharper footage in the future to prevent similar mistakes from happening again? In addition, the legality of the "slow-motion playback video shot from other channels and angles" is questionable, but it was not mentioned in the process of determination, which is also a matter of concern.
So this statement, in a sense, did not change anything, but caused dissatisfaction among fans, but also a wave of negative impact on Chinese football, the best solution at present should be to publish the video of the final verdict and change the final verdict.
It is recommended that Harbour participate in the Japan-Korea League
Against the backdrop of the controversy and dissenting voices of the Chinese Super League, a self-proclaimed supporter of Shanghai Port Football Club has put forward a controversial proposal calling on the club to apply to FIFA to change its affiliation, a move aimed at overcoming the challenges posed by the current Chinese football environment.
The fan envisioned that if Shanghai Harbour FC can successfully change the association to the Japan Football Association or the Korean Football Association, there will be four benefits for the development of the team.
First of all, the fan pointed out that if Shanghai Port FC can join the J-League or K-League, it will be more convenient for the team to play away from home. Compared to the hard work of traveling long distances away from home in the domestic league, the away trip to the Japan-Korea league is relatively close, which will be a big advantage for the team's fitness and form.
Secondly, he believes that such a shift will attract foreign fans to Shanghai, thereby increasing the level of consumption in the local economy. At the same time, it can also give Shanghai Port fans the opportunity to go abroad to watch the game abroad, and increase the exchange between different cultures. Doing so will not only avoid the complex interpersonal relationships and potentially sinister environment within Chinese football, but also allow fans to enjoy a purer football culture.
Thirdly, the fan believes that joining the J-League or K-League will allow Shanghai Port to maintain the intensity of the AFC Champions League, the highest level of Asian club competition, every game. This will help the players get more workouts, improve their competitive level and increase the opportunities for the team to interact with clubs in other parts of Asia.
Finally, an important benefit he suggested was that if Shanghai Harbour FC could successfully change the association and join the J-League or K-League, the team could avoid becoming the next independent and powerful but also criticized by fans of other teams, like Guangzhou Evergrande. Such a change could transform Shanghai Port from a much-targeted position to a more low-key, but also more stable club image.
epilogue
The Chinese Football Association conducts a review after the game, which is not to protect the shortcomings, but to objectively and impartially examine the penalties of each game, point out the mistakes, and promote the fairness and progress of the league. Fair decisions are crucial, both for the fans and for the football environment as a whole.
This approach of the Football Association is precisely to ensure the fairness of the game, so that every game can be played in a fair environment, which is also the basis for the continuous improvement and development of our league.
