A red card, in exchange for the penalty of expulsion, is a blow to the 27-year-old Guangzhou player Guan Haojin. On April 15, in the group stage of the AFC Champions League, Guangzhou lost 0-5 to Johor, and Guan Haojin was sent off with a red card in the match, and as a result, the Guangzhou team officially issued a penalty on the 16th, not only expelling Guan Haojin, but also punishing the coaching staff and making a salary cut.
In this AFC Champions League group stage, Guangzhou also arranged young players to play, most of them were born after 2000, but there were also some players after the 90s, of which Guan Haojin, born in 1995, wore the No. 88 shirt to play, and he was selected for the national youth. It should be pointed out that Guan Haojin was originally a player in the reserve team of guangzhou, but in recent seasons, most of them have played in the central second division, playing in Yinchuan Helan Mountain and Hebei Elite.
This season, Guan Haojin returned to Guangzhou and then played for the AFC Champions League group stage for the team, which should be the choice of the coaching staff, and from the normal situation, Guan Haojin's salary is not very high. According to the current general salary standard of China B, his monthly salary is about 10,000, and the contract is likely not very long. Against Johor, Kwan was sent off with a red card in the 69th minute.
At that time, Guan Haojin fell to the ground with his opponent when defending, and he had another movement of lifting his foot, which resulted in a kick to the opponent's head, and the referee also directly showed a red card. Although Guan Haojin has been explaining that he wants to break the siege, the direct impact of his actions is to hit the opponent's head, and the referee's red card is no problem. This action is indeed Guan Haojin's fault, but this is not an accident in the football field, which is also related to his ability and experience.
However, on the 16th, the Guangzhou team officially announced the dismissal of Guan Haojin, and such a punishment once again became the focus of attention, which is also in line with the guangzhou team's handling style, but this is not fair to Guan Haojin, and this treatment also affects other players. Guangzhou also has Kawasaki Striker and Ulsan Hyundai in the same group, and in future matches, Guangzhou will face these two opponents, and the score of the loss may be even greater.
Not only was Guan Haojin punished, but the coaching staff was also demoted, which affected the team as a whole. I don't know, what strange decisions the Guangzhou team will have in the future, but now look, the former AFC Champions League champions, now for the player's red card to issue such a heavy fine, can only make people sigh, but also make people helpless. In the new season of the Chinese Super League, the maximum salary of the Guangzhou team is 600,000, and then there are only 3 people in the team, so will the punishment be very strong? This also becomes a question and a point of view.
