South Korean media bombarded the South Korean referee: conniving at rough fouls + lying on the grass tactics, the Chinese team should be dissatisfied
In the 0-0 draw with Lebanon by the national football team, referee Ko Hengjin made a highly controversial decision, not showing a red card to Hamis, who stepped on Dai Weijun's face, and even the South Korean media criticized Ko Hengjin.
In the 13th minute of the game, Khamis kicked Dai Weijun in the face during a scramble, and the latter was stamped on the cheek with blood. Surprisingly, referee Ko Jong-jin did not show a red card to Khamis after the video assistant referee intervened.
In an interview, a referee expert analyzed, "Although the relevant technical foul can be exempted after the player is offside, the referee must show a yellow or red card if the player's physical foul against someone else reaches a certain severity." ”
"If the opponent closes his leg in the middle of the move, then he should not be shown a red card. But we can clearly see that the Lebanese players did not deliberately kick their legs outward, but they also confiscated their legs. His kick was powerful, and his kick was Dai Weijun's face, which was a serious foul with the nature of endangering the opponent's safety. ”
Gao Hengjin's decision sparked the attention of the world's media, with the Daily Mail noting, "A Lebanese player (Hamis) put a spike in the face of a Chinese player, but the referee did not recognize the shocking action as a foul and did not show a yellow card to make it look like a joke." ”
South Korean journalist Kim Hwan defended Ko Hyung-jin, "He didn't show a red card because his law enforcement standards have always been relatively lenient and he didn't favor any team." Fans familiar with the K-League are well aware that his enforcement has always been like this, and even in the league, he does not frequently blow players for fouls. Therefore, it is understandable that overseas fans who saw Ko Hyungjin enforcing the law for the first time were confused. ”
However, South Korean journalist Lee Jae-ho has a different opinion, "Even if he didn't mean it, it was a very dangerous move and he should have been sent off with a red card, but Ko Hyung-jin and the video assistant referee did not show a yellow card." ”
Because Gao Hengjin let go of such a dangerous move, the confrontation between the two teams entered a white-hot stage. In the second half, the Lebanese goalkeeper fell to the ground with injuries several times, which may have been his grass tactics and also caused dissatisfaction among the national football players. Despite the many confrontations between the two teams, the frequent downfalls of Lebanese players also made the national football players unhappy. ”
As a result, in a game where a South Korean referee enforces the law, there are a lot of rough and dangerous scenes, and his enforcement is not satisfactory, so it is inevitable that there will be a lot of discussion. ”
