On the evening of August 31, the third and last battle of the year was staged in the FA Cup, and Shandong Taishan had the last laugh by knocking out Beijing Guoan on penalties. Meanwhile, Taishan has been able to reach at least the semi-finals of the FA Cup for six consecutive seasons to defend his title as the king of the cup. There is always a new story in the battle of Jinglu, and this time the story extends to the outside of the field.
This showdown is like yesterday. In the FA Cup 1/4 final 9 years ago, the two teams also entered the penalty shootout after 1-1, and the same Taishan hit all five rounds, and in the 2014 season, Xu Yunlong kicked a flying penalty, and 9 years later it became Jiang Xiangyou who kicked the flying penalty.
Although this victory was not as hearty as when the opponent won by three goals in the league, it was also more valuable and improved the team's ability to fight tough battles. Liu Binbin and Judson were injured, and key figures were missing at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends; The referee showed 14 yellow and 1 red to steal the play frequently, and awarded the corner kick out of bounds after two refractions as a goal kick; Nearly 50,000 home fans on the scene constantly interfered with the game and even threw water bottles into the stadium... Against all odds, Tarzan fought for victory and gained respect with his tenacious will.
This showdown is also playing out again. As soon as the post-match press conference began, Choi Kang-hee expressed his dissatisfaction with the Guoan coach rushing to the Taishan's bench to celebrate the goal, saying: "Football is a kick, not a war. I have been in the industry for more than 30 years, and it is the first time I have seen someone on the bench to celebrate, and I have not seen the staff stop it. In fact, opponents are also colleagues, we are not enemies, we need to respect each other, otherwise sportsmanship will not exist. ”
Before there was "Jiaqi skating kneeling" after losing, after "Suya celebration" after out, Guoan has never been able to get rid of the fate of being restrained by Mount Tai this season, but the home team reporter was not convinced, and asked Cui Kangxi whether the opponent coach lacked respect, Cui Kangxi immediately refuted: "If you want to respect, you need to respect others first." You may not know the rules, even opposing players cannot go to the opposing bench to celebrate, such behavior should be sent off with a red card. "The press conference ended in an unfriendly atmosphere.
Regulations relating to the Rules of Football Competition
Choi's statement that he "should be sent off with a red card" is well founded. In the disciplinary measures against team officials in Chapter XII "Fouls and Misconduct" of the latest IFAB (Council of International Football Associations) Football Competition Rules, warnings apply to intentional entry into the opponent's technical area (non-confrontational) and penalty appearances apply to intentional entry into the opponent's technical area in an aggressive or confrontational manner. Judging by the madness of Suarez's rush to the Tarzan bench area, roaring and shaking his fists in celebration and refusing to go back for a long time, it is enough to meet the standard of penalty appearance, and Ma Ning's only yellow card warning is already merciful.
Respect the rules and respect the opponent to win respect, ignore the rules to provoke the opponent, even if you win the game, it is a loss of dignity. The Jinglu War has gone through thirty seasons, and no matter how the strength of the two sides changes, it can be said that they are each other's most valued opponents. No matter what the state is, trying your best to defeat the opponent is the greatest respect for each other, the winning team leaves decently, the losing team goes back to practice again, and next time you make an appointment. For the first time in 30 years, someone like Suarez who lost an inch in the game saw him.
In football, victory is always the most direct way to earn respect.
