Recently, a documentary about the referees of the Chinese Super League was released on CCTV5, which aroused the attention of the media and fans. In the documentary, Chen Shuyuan, chairman of the Chinese Football Association, admitted that there are problems and weak links in Chinese referees, so referees will be intensively trained before the start of the Chinese Super League.
For the black whistle, partial whistle, official whistle and human feeling whistle of Chinese football, Chen Shuyuan did not shy away from talking about it, he said bluntly that Chinese football has had black whistles, partial whistles, official whistles, and human feelings whistles, and everyone still has in mind the ugly side of Chinese football, because this kind of thing has happened, so the Chinese Football Association absolutely does not allow this ugly side that happened in the refereeing circles in the past to repeat itself in today's Chinese football. Adjudication may have a business misjudgment, but moral misjudgment is not allowed.
For the performance of the chinese super league referees, Chen Shuyuan gave an affirmation: "Most of the referees, at least I think, our Chinese Super League did not appear in the past black whistle. They are really very difficult, in the face of such a big pressure, you are like Shen Yinhao, the Internet is full of noise, human flesh search. Manning, how many fans took his mobile phone number, WeChat ID all occupied, and then sent him a dollar, carrying out a lot of personality insults. ”
Speaking of the Chinese Super League referee being scolded by the media and fans, Chen Shuyuan used his own experience as an example, saying that it was natural to be scolded. Chen Shuyuan said: "I told the referee that I have to be able to withstand grievances, and now I am used to criticism, Chinese football has not developed well, it is natural to be scolded by people, I have been scolded like this, what grievances do you have that you can't bear?" Of course, all your grievances are vented on me, but you have to do it well. ”
Through this documentary about Chinese Super League referees, "Rapid Changes", fans can get a closer understanding of the work of Chinese Super League referees, and they can also feel their difficulties in their work as a special group of Chinese football. Of course, most of the Chinese Super League referees still have a lot of room for improvement at the current level, although the introduction of VAR video assistant referees, but the Chinese Super League controversy about referees has always been heard. For example, in this season's shenzhen team against Chengdu Rongcheng team, Chengdu Rongcheng team relied on a corner to score goals, but this corner itself does not exist, Chengdu Rongcheng players shot directly out of the bottom line, and did not meet the Shenzhen team's defenders. This triggered a strong dissatisfaction among all the Shenzhen players, and the game was interrupted for a long time. Since the corner penalty is not within the scope of the intervention of the VAR video assistant referee, this goal can only be counted as valid.
There are actually many similar controversies, such as in the last round of the Chinese Super League, Guangzhou team against Cangzhou Lions, referee Shi Zhenlu also appeared many times about free kicks and corners of the misjudgment, and even Wang Shilong was knocked to the ground by the Oscar behind him, referee Shi Zhenlu decisively sentenced Wang Shilong for fouling The bizarre judgment, fortunately, these misjudged free kicks and corners did not produce goals, otherwise it would have caused a huge controversy like Shenzhen team.
Therefore, in the case of limited referee level, the Chinese Super League can further broaden the scope of VAR video assistant referee intervention, if it is a goal generated by free kicks and corners, you can let the VAR video assistant referee intervene to see if there is a misjudgment of free kicks and corners, if there is a misjudgment, then directly cancel the goal. Some media and fans may question this, believing that this does not conform to the rules of VAR video assistant referee intervention formulated by FIFA and is derailed from international football. But the problem is that our Chinese Super League is already derailed from international football, which country's top professional league have you seen to limit the use of U23 players? The team that didn't use the U23 player was directly awarded the defeat after winning the game? Therefore, in the case of a limited level of refereeing in the Chinese Super League, broadening the scope of VAR video assistant referee intervention is the best way to reduce wrong judgments and missed judgments.
At 8 o'clock Beijing time tonight, the 12th round of the 2022 Chinese Super League will begin, Guangzhou team against Chengdu Rongcheng, I hope that the referee of this game will not repeatedly misjudge like Shi Zhenlu. In this game, Jiang Guangtai and Wu Shaocong, who were previously drawn by the national football team, will return to guangzhou, and the return of the two will greatly improve the defensive strength of guangzhou team, coupled with Zhang Xiuwei's organizational tandem on the offensive end, Guangzhou team has every opportunity to take all three points.
