Preamble:
In this U23 Asian Cup, the Qatar team, as the host, has been in the spotlight, and in the 8-in-4, the Qatar team played against the Japanese team with good strength. Throughout the game, the two teams showed tenacious fighting spirit, but the Qatar team received some unfair penalties in the game, and finally lost 10 to 11.
Through such a match, we can not only see the fighting spirit of the two teams, but also deeply understand the importance of referees in football. In the future competition, the Qatar team will also fight for the opportunity to qualify for the Olympic Games through the play-offs, and I believe that they will once again show their strong strength and tenacious fighting spirit.
First, the Japanese team narrowly won and advanced
1. Japan played a fantastic opening in the first half.In the game against Qatar, the Japanese played a fantastic opening, only 2 minutes into the opening game, Kaede Yamada took the ball into the penalty area, and then kicked the ball into the goal to help Japan take the lead.
This opening gave the Japanese a lot of encouragement, and then they began to attack the door of Qatar, which could not defend well against the Japanese attack. In the 21st minute, the Japanese launched another fierce attack to make it 1-1.
2. Qatar 10 half-time game. The Qatari goalkeeper was suddenly injured at the 41st minute, and the referee decided it was a slow-motion decision because he took too long to deal with it. After checking it out, the referee decided it was a red card and the goalkeeper was ejected for an accidental injury.
Qatar were only able to play with 10 men, which undoubtedly made their game very difficult, and in the subsequent matches, they never found the right opportunity to deal effectively with the Japanese attack.
Although Japan created many chances to score, they did not take advantage of these chances due to Qatar's relatively good defense, and the two sides ended up at half-time 1-1.
2. The Japanese team scored two goals in extra time.
In the 49th minute of the second half, Qatar scored from a free kick to make the score 2:1. The main reason why they were able to break into Japan's door in such an unfavourable situation was because of the mistakes of the Japanese on set-pieces.
Falling behind 2-1, the Japanese stepped up their attack and they quickly seized their opportunity to head into the Qatar goal to level the score. When the game reached the injury stoppage, Japan's offensive became more and more aggressive, and Qatar's body began to fatigue and could not organize a counterattack well.
In the 101st minute, the Japanese levelled the score at 3-2 with a corner kick, and as they drew to the end, Japan had another great chance. In the end, Japan scored two goals in a row in extra time to defeat Qatar and reach the semi-finals of the U23 Asian Cup.
3. Controversial decisions by referees during the game.
In this game, the referee's decision has been controversial, especially after the Qatar team's goalkeeper was injured unexpectedly, and the referee made the decision to send the goalkeeper directly with a red card.
The decision was very unhappy for Qatar and their coaching staff, who believed that the accidental injury was not the goalkeeper's intention, and the referee did not fully consider the circumstances of the parties when awarding the accident, so they saw the replay of VAR in advance.
In addition, there were some problems with the referee's decision in other details of the game, which caused them to question the referee's work after the Qatar team lost the match, believing that some of the referee's decisions caused them great injustice.
4. The importance of referees in football.
Through this match, we once again realized how important the referee's job is in football, and their every move has the potential to have a significant impact on the outcome of the game.
In practice, referees are also under a lot of pressure to make accurate decisions in a short period of time and remain calm and impartial at key moments of the game. In order to improve the quality of referees' work, FIFA has also implemented VAR technology to give referees appropriate help and hints in some major penalty decisions.
Through the use of VAR technology, many controversial decisions have been corrected, which also improves the fairness and impartiality of the game, and also reduces the controversy and disputes after the game.
Fifth, the performance of the Qatar team is worthy of recognition.
Although in this game, the Qatar team ended up 10 against 11 and unfortunately exited, their performance in the game is undoubtedly worthy of recognition.
No matter what the situation, the Qatari team showed a tenacious fighting spirit, and they still persevered until the end in the ten-man battle, and did not give up the opportunity to face the Japanese team. And for a large part of the game, the Qatar team even managed to overtake the Japanese team by one goal.
Through this performance, the Qatar team has also gained a lot of recognition and support, and everyone is full of expectations that they can achieve good results in the play-offs, and I believe that they will be able to successfully qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games through their own efforts and strength.
Epilogue:
Through this game, we can not only feel the fierce confrontation and excitement brought by the football game, but also deeply understand the spirit and emotions contained in the football game. At the same time, we are also aware of the importance of the impartiality of the referees and the professionalism of the football players in all competitions, who work together to maintain the fairness and impartiality of the game.
In the future games, whether it is the Japanese team or the Qatar team, I believe that they will continue to show the spirit of tenacious struggle and present exciting games for the audience.
