In the 8th round of the 2024 Chinese Super League, Shanghai Port played Shanghai Shenhua at home. In the 5th minute of stoppage time, referee Fu Ming made a key penalty and ruled that Wang Haijian's goal was invalid on the grounds that Yu Han was overtaking.
In the 59th minute of the game, Gustavo scored from the bottom of the line to give Harbour the lead. In the 90th minute, Yu Hanchao made a diagonal pass from the right, and Teixeira stopped the ball in the middle of the penalty area with a low shot after stopping the ball, 1-1!
In the 5th minute of stoppage time, Wang Haijian scored with a left-footed volley in front of the penalty area, 2-1! However, while the Shenhua players were celebrating wildly for the goal, the harbor players were complaining to the referee.
Subsequently, the video assistant referee intervened to award the penalty and asked Fu Ming to watch back in slow motion. Just when Fu Ming was looking back at the slow motion, Yan Junling walked to the sideline and chattered, and was shown a yellow card by Fu Ming.
Surprisingly, Fu Ming ultimately ruled that the goal was invalid because he thought Yu Hanchao was in an offside position. Judging from the slow motion, Yu Hanchao was indeed suspected of offside, but he did not touch the ball and did not obstruct Yan Junling's vision.
There is no doubt that Fu Ming's penalty decision will determine the outcome of the game and will also cause huge controversy. Some fans said, "The naked eye is not offside, but the referee does not draw a line, this is not a controversy, if the ball is not offside, this goal is definitely a good goal, the purpose of the director and replay has been repeating the goal, I don't know where the controversy is, or the level is limited, it needs to be improved." ”
