The focus of this game was a VAR decision in the 51st minute. Everton sent the ball forward. Aniya, who was in an offside position, did not touch the ball and raised his hand to indicate that Xu Hongjie, who was coming from behind, entered the penalty area with a single strike. Onas was in a hurry. It pushed him down from behind. It turned out that Song Weiguo raised the flag to indicate offside, but following VAR review, the ball witness Liu Huangxi penalized Jiezhi for the second time with a penalty of 12 yards. Lee and Man replaced Aniya and hit the goal, and the lead increased to 3:1. Because foreign players such as Mingasov, Mikiel, Kim Shin-woo and Charlie Scott were not included in the main roster, Jiezhi was pulled apart and then Igorsatoni was injured, so he was unable to recover.

He admitted following the game that he was surprised by the score: “We all wanted to beat Jiezhi, but we never thought that this score would happen. We have to thank the players for their efforts. (What are your thoughts on the first introduction of VAR?) The 12 yards in the second half is crucial. Everyone It’s fair to see.” Talking regarding the prospects of competing for the championship, he emphasized: “It is only the beginning of the season and it is too early to say anything. We must maintain stable performance throughout the season before we can compete for the championship.”

Anja, who played in two European Cup qualifiers for Estonia during the international season, was very excited with his teammates following the game. He said: “Of course I am excited to win the wave. In addition, I defeated Jiezhi this time and recorded two consecutive victories. It’s very meaningful! I just took a 20-hour flight back to Hong Kong a few days ago, and my physical strength has not recovered to 100%, but seeing the fans cheering wildly brings a lot of energy to the team and myself.” He admitted that it is not appropriate to talk regarding bid opportunities too early. , said with a smile that he was only thinking regarding what to eat at night to celebrate the victory.
Kitsch will leave for South Korea tomorrow to prepare for the AFC Champions League group match away from Jeonbuk Hyundai on Wednesday. Coach Zhu Zhiguang admitted that the defeat will have some impact: “It will have an impact to a greater or lesser extent, but football games are either won or lost. It is all your own mistakes. The 12-yard loss can be avoided. VAR is like CCTV (closed-circuit television). You can see everything you do.” He explained that he put away Mingasov and Kim Shin-woo because of injuries. He also pointed out that the league is a long road and did not agree that the chance of defending the title was greatly reduced.
