On the evening of December 3, Beijing time, Wei Zhen, a 27-year-old central defender of the harbor international, posted an apology on social media for his current round of AFC Champions League red.
Wei Zhen bluntly said that he did not mean to hurt the other party. Because I had experienced many head injuries before, and even the most serious one in 19 years, I lost consciousness and was directly sent to the emergency room. Therefore, knowing the pain of serious injuries, he will never deliberately ruin other people's careers.
The current international also said he just wants to play well to win the game. He thanked his teammates for their hard work on the pitch: "Everyone is good! I love you guys, I love this team! ”
In the just-concluded AFC Champions League 6th round of a key match, Shanghai Port drew 1-1 at home with the dark horse Gwangju team of the South Korean League with one less player. In the game, Wei Zhen, who started the game, made a rather amateurish "don't watch the ball" defense at the end of the first half, allowing the Gwangju team to break the deadlock first.
And Yibian fought again, Wei Zhen stepped over South Korean player Xin Changwu after a big kick clearance, and brought it to the opponent's face, and then VAR intervened, and the referee changed the judgment to send Wei Zhen off. I don't know if Wei Zhen will be punished by the AFC for this foul.
