In the 21st round of the Chinese Super League, Shanghai Shenhua lost 1-2 to Beijing Guoan. Shenhua has decided to appeal to the adjudication committee over the cancellation of Luiz's goal in the match.
In the 48th minute of the game, Luis received a long pass from Gao Tianyi at the back and broke through the gate of Guoan. However, the referee on duty ruled that the goal was invalid after listening to the opinion of the video assistant referee.
The broadcast signal gives a scribing shot. However, there is no Gao Tianyi who sent an assist in this shot, so it cannot be explained whether Luis was in an offside position at the moment of Gao Tianyi's pass.
In addition, after Guoan scored the stunner, VAR also had a composite goal to see if it was valid. At that time, the picture only roughly showed the moment of Zhang Xizhe's pass, the positional relationship between Wang Ziming and the surrounding defenders, and did not draw a line more clearly.
However, even if the refereeing committee decided that the cancellation of Luiz's goal was a mistake, it would not change the outcome of the game.
