On June 25, soccer newspaper reporter Jia Yanfeng on the
China Super League (soccer league)
The league round 6 of the Dalian people team and Henan Songshan Longmen team competition in the controversial red card interview with three referee experts, the results of the three referee experts unanimously think that the red card Ma Xing Yu foul is not wrong.
Last night's competition to the first half of the 25 minutes, Henan Songshan Longmen team No. 28 Ma Xingyu in the jump for the header, one of its feet stepped on the Dalian people team No. 18 He Yupeng. At that time, the referee did not make the first moment to make a penalty, on both sides into the water time, video referee Ai Koon reminded referee Zhen Wei, Ma Xingyu suspected serious foul behavior. Immediately, Zhen Wei personally watched the VAR after making a ruling, to the Henan Songshan Longmen team No. 28 Ma Xingyu showed a direct red card, will be sentenced to the outside of the field.
As this game broadcast there are instructions to question this penalty, in the fans also triggered a lot of comments. On whether this red card should be shown, why VAR will intervene in the referee will change the judgment, soccer newspaper reporter Jia Yanfeng interviewed three former international referees, listen to their understanding of this red card. The three referees' analysis of the reasons why the referee finally showed the red card is as follows:
The first referee (international referee): first of all, this is a clear and obvious direct penalty order into the field of the red card action, but at that time the referee in the first moment to stand a little far, so did not in the first moment on this action to make the most direct judgment. But later by VAR reminded personally watched the video, made up the red card to correct their previous penalty is right. Why is this action a foul? The reason is very simple, this action is called the use of excessive force, from a certain extent, endangering the safety of the opponent's action, the purpose of the foul is very obvious, especially the red 28 after he jumped up, the leg last there is a force, that is, to the knee as the axis, there is a re-force process.
The second referee (international assistant referee): I thought the red card is not a problem, because the red player jumped up and head to the ball in the future, the left leg did not close in time, but there is a stomping action, and stomped to the back of the opponent, this stomping action constitutes a red card, if he did not stomp out, down, did not stomp out, if not a red card. But the video is obviously there, then this belongs to the serious foul. Combined with the competition moment and the strength of the two sides of the contrast, I do not think 28 have one-sided intentional violence, but defined as a serious foul red card into the field no problem.
The third (international referee): pay attention to the red player's left leg closed up and then stomped outward, according to the opponent's back, is to add force to stomp, you see his left calf is stomped out, that is, this is the purpose of his purpose, the purpose of the injury, so give the red card is based on the calf of his left foot stomped out the action to the penalty. There is no problem with a red card. But as for the final how to determine, is a serious foul or violent behavior, depends on the post-game referee supervision report, because both are red card, but the subsequent additional punishment is different, I personally combined with the situation on the field to see, defined as a serious foul is more reasonable.
Secondly, the three referees also agreed that the intervention of VAR in this case was very accurate and important. All three referees mentioned that, according to the relevant provisions of FIFA, when the referee presents a significant fault or a serious loss of sight, the video assistant referee can intervene in a timely manner to amend the referee's decision.
The Ma Xingyu case is applicable to this provision - when Ma Xingyu kicked He Yupeng in the first moment, the referee was at a distance of about 30 meters behind Ma Xingyu's death, and the observation angle was not very good, so he didn't make a penalty in the first moment. VAR can intervene in four situations, such as involving red and yellow cards, scoring goals, and penalizing the wrong target. The intervention of VAR this time is equivalent to make up for the referee's vision and perspective limitations, which is also the value and significance of the existence of VAR.
