On the evening of April 23, Beijing time, the fire of the CBA playoffs was ignited again, and the Guangsha men's basketball team ushered in a life-and-death battle with the Guangdong men's basketball team at home. In this crucial battle, the Guangsha men's basketball team, which fell behind 0-2, was under tremendous pressure, and Hu Jinqiu's absence due to injury cast a shadow on the team's prospects. However, it was in such adversity that the Guangsha men's basketball team staged a thrilling reversal.
In the first half of the game, the Guangdong men's basketball team once took a 20-point lead with excellent teamwork and efficient offense. However, just when people thought that the game would go to the Guangdong men's basketball team without suspense, Zhou Qi's deliberate elbow hit the opponent in the third quarter became the turning point of the game.
At that time, Zhou Qi made physical contact with Li Jinxiao during the defense, and in an emotional state, he raised his elbow and hit Li Jinxiao directly in the chest. This obvious foul immediately caught the referee's attention. However, at the moment of blowing the foul, the two international referees, the referee Yan Jun and the first deputy referee Guo Nan, had obvious differences.
Yan Jun, who rushed out of the bottom line, tried to stop Guo Nan from blowing the penalty, but Guo Nan insisted on his penalty. The two patted each other's chests on the court to communicate, and a series of body movements were very intriguing. This scene not only surprised the players and spectators on the field, but also raised questions about the fairness and professionalism of the referees.
After that, the demeanor of the two referees when they reviewed the footage and the body language when announcing their seizure of power were unusually cautious and serious. Their every movement, every look in their eyes, seems to convey some kind of message, and one can't help but speculate about all kinds of interesting facts and complex relationships in the refereeing circle.
In the end, Zhou Qi was expelled from the game because of this elbow attack, while the Guangsha men's basketball team broke out in adversity, scoring a high score of 32-21 in a single quarter and successfully approaching the score. In the final quarter of the game, the two teams launched a fierce confrontation, and finally with Zhao Yanhao's two key three-pointers before the end, the Guangsha men's basketball team defeated the Guangdong men's basketball team 109-102 and pulled the score to 1-2.
This game is not only a basketball victory, but also a discussion about the fairness and professionalism of the referees. Zhou Qi's elbow and the referee's disagreement became the focus of the game, and also caused people to think deeply about the CBA league referee system. It is hoped that in the future, the CBA league can further strengthen the training and management of referees to ensure the fairness and fairness of the game.
