Preface
The 8th round of the Chinese Super League has just come to an end, and the highlight of the competition is the derby between Shanghai Port and local rivals Shanghai Shenhua. In this gunpowder-filled contest, players from both sides showed a high level of competition and unyielding fighting spirit, but in the end it ended in a 1-1 draw, bringing a wonderful visual feast to the fans.
At the last moment of the game, Wang Haijian of the Shenhua team suddenly shot from a distance from the goal, and the ball crossed a wonderful arc and flew straight into the corner of the goal. Just when all the Shenhua fans thought that they would kill the opponent and take away the three points, the referee Fu Ming had a long replay and discussion through VAR (video assistant referee) technology.
In the end, he determined that Shenhua player Yu Hanchao was in an offside position during the goal and interfered with the view of Harbour goalkeeper Yan Junling, so the goal was ruled invalid.
Trial Judgment Scale Deep Thought
Controversial scenes like this were not uncommon in last season's Jinmen Tigers game. At that time, the team was also faced with a delicate choice between a good ball and an invalid goal, and every decision of the referee was like a sharp sword, ruthlessly "killing" the hope of the goalkeeper.
The emergence of this kind of scene undoubtedly adds more suspense and uncertainty to the game, but at the same time, it also makes fans question and discuss the referee's decision-making more.
In today's game, with the widespread use of VAR technology, referees often need to watch video replays repeatedly to verify the facts when making key decisions. Such an approach has undoubtedly improved the accuracy and fairness of the punishment.
However, the reasons for the invalidity of the goal written by the referee on duty in the referee's report after the match, although necessarily sufficient from the point of view of the explanation, are often accompanied by some controversy.
These invalid goals often have one thing in common: they are not completely invulnerable. In other words, if we look at it from another perspective or another understanding, there seems to be some valid reason for the validity of these goals. This ambiguity is one of the most appealing aspects of football.
It fills the game with uncertainty and unknown, and it also allows fans to discuss these controversial decisions with relish.
Of course, when it comes to referees' decisions, we can't simply judge them by right or wrong. After all, in football, referees are also people, and they are also affected and conditioned by various factors.
Referee - stealth is the highest level, and deliberately stealing the spotlight is failure
Every season, the topic of referee enforcement always goes hand in hand with the progress of the schedule, causing countless discussions and controversies. In a key battle in the 8th round, Chengdu Rongcheng team hosted Shandong Taishan team, which was not only eye-catching because of the fierce confrontation between the two sides, but also caused great controversy because of the referee's decision.
In the game, the bench of Shandong Taishan team expressed strong dissatisfaction with some of the referee Du Jianxin's decisions, which eventually led to the appearance of red cards. This scene undoubtedly made the atmosphere of the game more tense, and also made fans question the referee's ability to enforce the law more.
In the referee world, there is a recognized view of the evaluation of professional ability, that is, "stealth" is the highest level. A good referee should be able to keep a low profile in the game and keep the focus of the game always on the players and the team, not on themselves. However, when the referee steals the camera and becomes the focus of the game because of certain decisions, in a sense, it is undoubtedly a failure for the referee.
Therefore, it is important for referees to improve their professional ability and impartiality. Only in this way can the occurrence of controversial decisions be reduced, the game will be more fair and just, and fans can really enjoy the fun of football.
The institutional adjustment of the Chinese Football Association is crucial
This season, the Chinese Football Association has made an important change to its statutes, which allows clubs to appeal referees' enforcement actions. This measure not only provides a more transparent channel for clubs to protect their rights, but also further guarantees the fairness and fairness of the competition. At the same time, the evaluation team of the adjudication committee also shoulders the task of periodic evaluation, deliberating and evaluating the enforcement of the adjudication.
So far, the council has been held 4 times, and each time it has attracted the attention of many fans and industry insiders. Judging from the results released to the public, more than 60% of the 18 precedents involving the 3rd level professional league found that the penalty was correct.
This data not only shows that the Chinese Football Association's efforts in referee training and management have been effective, but also reflects that referees can implement the rules more accurately and fairly in the game.
In fact, whether the referee made the right decision or not, it could not change the result that had already occurred. However, the existence of this kind of appraisal system undoubtedly plays an important supervisory role.
It makes the referees more aware of their responsibilities and missions, and it also makes the club and fans more confident and recognized by the results of the game. At the same time, this evaluation system is also a positive measure to promote the smooth progress of the league, which helps to enhance the overall image and influence of the league.
