On May 21, 2024, there was a sudden change of wind and clouds. On this day, a women's soccer player named Li Ying boldly questioned the referee's offside call on social media platforms after the 1-1 draw between Yongchuan Chashan Bamboo Sea Women's Soccer Team and Hainan Qiongzhong Women's Soccer Team.
In that Women's Super League match, Yongchuan Chashan Bamboo Sea Women's Soccer Team showed a tenacious fighting spirit. Li Ying even earned her team points with a brilliant long-distance shot on goal. However, an offside call in the 36th minute in a social media screenshot seemed to be too much for her to accept.
Li Ying angrily posted on social media, "It makes me wonder how the players will express themselves to the referees? Can a wrong call in a game be solved by just resting for a few games? I'm really infuriated that it seems to be the players' fault every time. Was that goal really offside? You focus on my movements but ignore the passes, and the same goes for the commentators, if you don't know the game, don't comment on it."
