In the 27th round of the Chinese Super League, Beijing Guoan won 2-0 at home against Dalian Ren on September 30, successfully escaping from the pressure of recent winlessness. In a touching scene during the game, Beijing Guoan fans created a song in the stands to express their respect for Zhang Xizhe, who was banned by the FA, and the entire Guoan team. Such a scene will undoubtedly bring great encouragement to the Guoan players, but it is also bound to be extremely embarrassing for the CFA.
During the match between Guoan and Dalian Ren, the players of Guoan once gathered under the stands. At this point, the fans collectively sang loudly, with lyrics that not only expressed their support and love for the team, but also included insulting words such as "The FA is always XX". Considering that Guoan midfielder Zhang Xizhe was recently banned for 7 matches by the FA, it was clear that the fans were expressing their support for the player and their dissatisfaction with the FA in this way!
And Zhang Xizhe, as a party to this incident, also looked very happy in the face of the fans' encouragement. As the fans began to berate the FA, Zhang Xizhe also applauded while snickering with his teammates around him. Obviously, although the long suspension by the FA has ended his season early, what could be happier than having so many fans standing by his side?
The question now is whether Beijing Guoan fans publicly denouncing the FA at their home stadium will result in a ticket for the match area. Previously, they were fined by the FA for "insulting slogans" at their home stadium in Chengdu Rongcheng. Will Guoan's fans be penalized for their "insulting lyrics" as well. According to the current situation, it is unlikely. After all, the CFA understands very well that if they continue to irritate Beijing Guoan, the consequences may be uncontrollable, and for the current turmoil, it is better to avoid more trouble. The most important thing now is to be able to get through the season peacefully. Therefore, this time, Guoan fans may either choose to believe the testimony of Gao Hongbo said, or blame the disciplinary committee that issued the ticket, can not be resolved.
