In the 16th round of the Chinese Super League (CSL), a controversial penalty once again pushed the fate of the Shanghai team into the limelight. In a fierce confrontation, Shanghai defender Wang Zhenao was unlucky to "step on a mine" when he was clearing the ball, directly hitting the calf of Wuhan Sanzhen's foreign aid, and his knee pad was cracked, but the referee failed to show the red and yellow cards in time. The panel expressed their dissatisfaction and clearly pointed out that Wang Zhen'ao's reckless behavior should be directly awarded a free kick and show a yellow card, thus, Shanghai once again benefited from the wrong judgment.
The fourth controversial penalty immediately afterward occurred in the match between Shanghai Harbour B and Ganzhou RuiLi. A Shanghai B player blocked an opponent's shot with his hand during a defensive play (see below), yet the referee failed to award a penalty kick.
The panel of judges made a judgment on this: Shanghai Harbour B player No. 60 touched the ball with his arm, and his posture led to an unnatural expansion of his body, which constituted a clear handball foul, and a penalty kick should be awarded.
This series of controversial penalties let people question the impartiality of the Football Association. In this announcement of 11 controversial penalties, the Shanghai team accounted for 4 seats, and without exception are wrongly awarded profit, profit margin of up to 100%, let a person jaw-dropping, can be said to be "steady profit".
As we all know, losses and profits are the norm in soccer. However, it would be outrageous for a team to lose nothing in terms of profit. In the words of the fans, they could have just given out the "Best Profit Award".
