Tonight's match between Argentina and Australia will reportedly be played at the Workers Stadium in Beijing. Reporter Chen Hua updated his social media after the first half, praising Manning for his refereeing performance in the first half.
Chen Hua spoke highly of Manning's enforcement. He wrote on social media, "Referee Maning blew Argentina and Australia, the first half went very well with little controversy. Why is it that when Maning referees Chinese Super League matches, he is called a black whistle and official whistle by some people? Is this due to Manning's own lack of ability, or is it caused by the lack of expertise of some media and fans? This is a very interesting topic."
