The professional ability of the CBA referees, as well as the moral issues, led to a lot of misjudgments and missed judgments, and in the first round clash between Guangdong and Guangsha, the referee's blowing penalty caused a lot of controversy after the game. What is outrageous is that the two referees even had a disagreement on the field. Sun Minghui was extremely dissatisfied with the referee's blowing penalty, and directly threw the towel angrily to vent his emotions.
The first controversial penalty was that Xu Jie's foul blew on Du Runwang's head. In the second quarter of the game, Xu Jie had already committed 3 fouls at this time. In the first 4 minutes, he fell into foul trouble because of the referee's strict blowing. In the second quarter of the game, he fouled Sun Minghui in the process of defending him.
But the controversial scene is that the referee counted the foul on Du Runwang's head. This made Sun Minghui very dissatisfied, if it was recorded on Xu Jie, then he would have 4 crimes on his back, and it would definitely have an impact. Judging from the slow-motion replay, this foul was indeed Xu Jie, and Du Runwang had no contact with Sun Minghui.
The referee blew the penalty this time really incorrectly, even though Sun Minghui protested, but the referee still insisted on the penalty. The reason for this is most likely because in the first quarter, Xu Jie's steal was blown into a foul by a beater, and the referee found a balance whistle. After that, Sun Minghui's emotions were a little out of control, and in the process of opposing Xu Jie, the scale of his confrontation became larger and larger.
Xu Jie held the ball and advanced quickly, and Sun Minghui shot out from the diagonal side and knocked him directly away. This is a clear violation of the body. But the referee made another wrong decision in order to balance the whistle and let go of the physical foul. In addition, when Zhu Junlong was defending Waters, his hand touched Waters' sensitive parts, and at the same time, there was a knee action, which was also a physical foul.
These two violations, the referee omitted them all. Among the 3 disputed penalties, Guangdong 1 and Guangsha 2. Guangdong's foul was blown, but the punishment subject was wrong. And Guangsha's 2 physical fouls were not upgraded. So judging from the post-game, Guangsha did not suffer in terms of blowing penalties.
The level of referees has a great impact on the game, and the CBA league should have a group of more professional referees to reduce more controversy. Xu Jie was whistled for 3 fouls at the beginning of the first quarter, and the referee's whistle was relatively strict with him. This made him a little restrained in the rest of the defense.
Throughout the game, the referee uses a balance whistle to blow the penalty with the next mistake to make up for the previous mistake. The two played brilliantly, but the referee issue led to controversy. Guangdong deserved to win this game, and they suppressed the opponent's two players in a row. Xu Jie, Hu Mingxuan, and Zhou Qi withstood the pressure.
