Sigh! Misjudgment changes the ownership of the Super League championship + relegation? The two goals scored by Harbour 2-1 Meizhou should have been invalidated

In a key battle in the final round of the Chinese Super League that ended on November 2, Beijing time, Shanghai Port defeated Tianjin Jinmen Tigers 5-0 at home, and beat Shanghai Shenhua with a one-point advantage, winning the Chinese Super League championship for the third time in team history.


In another contest that ended at the same time, Meizhou Hakka lost 1-2 to Shandong Taishan, and Meizhou Hakka also regretted to be relegated with Nantong Zhiyun. What is embarrassing is that it was the two controversial penalties in the make-up match in June this year that changed the fate of Haigang and Meizhou.


In the 7th round of the Chinese Super League on June 18 this year, Shanghai Port defeated Meizhou Hakka 2-1 away to win the halfway championship. However, that game was full of controversy, with both goals scored by Wu Lei and Cittadini being debatable.


In the first goal, Citardini was suspected of handball before the goal, and before Wu Lei's second goal, Shanghai Port defender Jiang Guangtai also committed a foul. After the game, the law enforcement of the referee on duty Ren Tong was also widely questioned.


The Chinese Football Association also subsequently confirmed in the 12th referee review that both goals of Shanghai Port should be disallowed. And if this result is followed, Meizhou Hakka may be able to beat Shanghai Port 1-0 at home.


As the Chinese Super League comes to an end, looking back at this controversial game shows how important it is. If Meizhou has 3 more points, it will be able to successfully relegate. If the harbor loses these 3 points, it will lose to Shanghai Shenhua by 2 points and will not have a chance to defend the title. It is no exaggeration to say that this controversial game does seem to have decided the Champions League and relegation places this season.
