Recently, due to work reasons, Xiaobian did not have time to pay attention to the penalties of the five major leagues, but today he brushed a Weibo of Huang Jianxiang in his spare time:
It turned out to be a game in Serie A today, Roma lost 0-2 away to Fiorentina, and in the opening 3 minutes Gonzalez burst into the box and fell to the ground, and the referee reviewed the VAR and awarded Purple Lily a penalty. It was this controversial penalty that made Huang Jianxiang scold the Italian referee for being too faceless, and even protested by refusing to explain Serie A.
In the impression of the editor, this is not the first time Huang Jianxiang has sprayed a Serie A referee, just as he himself said on Weibo.
Perhaps it is the sensitivity of the referee's penalty, Xiaobian first watched in detail the several penalties huang Jianxiang said, let's see if these penalties are really faceless?
First, let's take a look at today's penalty award:
Gonzalez broke through with the ball, and the Roma 22 had a foul behind him, but Gonzalez did not fall to the ground, and when he dribbled the ball to the free throw line, the Roma 2 player stretched out his foot, and then Gonzalez fell in the penalty area.
The referee on duty did not blow fouls at the time, and when the game stopped, the video assistant referee intervened to suggest that the referee look back, and the referee reviewed and awarded a penalty.
Although the front Roma No. 22 player had fouls, but because Gonzalez still has the right to control the ball, the referee has a favorable position, so the key to awarding a penalty is the back of the Roma No. 2 player stretching his legs to stumble, from a slow motion point of view, the No. 2 player reached out to intercept the ball, did not touch the ball, but kicked Gonzalez's calf, of course, this contact is not very serious, Gonzalez's fall also has a little exaggerated component, but this is not a reason not to award a foul, so we think this is a hasty foul, Fouls should be awarded.
Another key point is that the location of the foul, which we fixed above, is where Gonzalez's right foot had already guessed the line of the penalty area, so we thought it was no problem to award a penalty.
As for the last question, first of all, we think that this foul is still relatively clear, because it is related to the penalty award, so var intervention is also in line with the principle.
Let's take another look at the Milan derby in the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final, where the referee misjudged it.
In the 66th minute, Milan's corner kick on the left was a chance, and at the first point, the Inter player broke the top of Leo's body and scored a goal on the ground, and then var prompted Kalulu to offside the first goal.
Why does this offside ball need to be reviewed by the referee in person instead of directly listening to the VAR's opinion and directly awarding offside? Because this is the interference of the opposing team member in the offside foul determination, because this determination needs to be subjectively determined, the VAR can only recommend that the referee review it himself and make the final judgment. So was the ball an offside foul?
This requires analyzing whether Kalulu's offside position obstructs the opposing player's view, hindering the opponent's handling of the ball, or affecting his ability to handle the ball.
Some people say that Kalulu is far away from the goalkeeper and the goalkeeper just misjudged the ball, but we have to analyze whether Kalulu's offside position has obstructed the view of the opposing goalkeeper. But we look at the screenshot above, at the moment when the Milan players shoot, Kalulu is in front of the opponent's goalkeeper's line of sight, from the animation point of view, Kalulu's running in the offside position and affecting the opponent's line of sight, which has a certain impact on the other party's judgment, so we think that the offside foul should be punished!
To be honest, this kind of offside foul that affects the eyes of the opposing goalkeeper in the offside position is the most controversial, because everyone's angle is always different, but the current FIFA requirements are based on objective facts, so similar situations are considered offside fouls! Let's take a look at a case in FIFA's latest referee guidelines:
In this case, Levan did not touch the ball, or even dodge the ball, but his action in the offside position affected the goalkeeper's line of sight and affected his judgment, so FIFA identified it as an offside foul, and then looked at Kalulu's action, he obstructed the opponent's line of sight in the offside position, and the running obviously affected the opposing goalkeeper, so there was not much problem in awarding an offside foul. Just like the following is fifa is also recognized as offside!
Indeed, the level of The Serie A referees was uneven, and there was also a major misjudgment in the match, such as the referee on duty and the var referee in the Game of Torino against Inter, who missed an obvious penalty in Turin, and was also banned by the Italian Football Association Referee Committee for a month after the game. However, as far as Huang Jianxiang said, the two sentences were seriously misjudged.
As a public figure, I don't know how much Huang Jianxiang understands the rules of football competitions, but what is the difference between such a public rhythm and an internet troll! While you're not explaining Serie A, you can buy a book of rules and take a good look!
