In China's soccer world, an unprecedented "gambling storm" is sweeping. Many soccer players have been involved, and some teams are even in crisis. It is reported that the investigation has set its sights on a series of matches between 2015 and 2018, and one of the players who used to play as a goalkeeper for the Shaanxi team is now facing the shadow of the investigation. Media personality Li Pingkang revealed that the player's identity will soon be revealed.
According to Li Pingkang, the investigation spanned from 15 to 18 years of the tournament, and the investigation even touched the China B League. In 2018, a goalkeeper from Shaanxi was considered to join Evergrande, but the club eventually abandoned the transfer operation after the investigation found problems with the player's match performance.
It is further known that the goalkeeper who plays for Shaanxi is named Song Zhenyu. Song Zhenyu has been playing for the Shaanxi team since 2017 and was promoted to China A with the team in 2019.During his time with the Shaanxi team, Song Zhenyu's performance was noteworthy.At the end of the 2018 season, Guangzhou Evergrande suffered from a "goal shortage", with Zengcheng suffering from a long-term injury, leaving only Liu Dengzheng as a senior goalkeeper. Therefore, the introduction of Song Zhenyu, an experienced veteran, is reasonable for Evergrande.
Song Zhenyu has made many appearances for the Chinese national soccer team and has played as the starting goalkeeper. Throughout his career, Song has caused many controversies regarding his "style of play". For example, during his time at Changsha Jinde, Song Zhenyu was asked to talk to the club's executives after a poor performance in a match against Shandong Luneng and was accused of match-fixing. In addition, while playing for Sheffield United in Chengdu, Song received three suspensions for a "scrambled egg incident". Finally, in March 2022, Song Zhenyu officially announced his retirement.
