Golden Greenery

After watching the video replay on the sidelines, Brazilian first whistle Wilton Sampaio made a decisive decision that the goal was invalid and the Chinese team was penalized for offside.

Who is offside?

Everyone, look at me and I look at you: is it you? is it you?

The slow motion shows: Zhang Xian passed the ball to Liu Langdong. Langdong was not offside. He was at least two bodies behind Medina.

Langdong cut inside and then blocked the ribs. Pang Tiezhu stepped in and was not offside. At the moment of passing the ball, he was further behind than Langdong.

Tiezhu swept across the goal from outside the waistline, not to mention, he was almost on the bottom line.

Langdong picked up the missed shot and shot into the empty goal, and there was no question of offside.

Who was offside? Stand up for me!

Zhuo Yang: "..."

Lens replay.

Zhang Xian stole the ball from Tiger Falcao, turned around and prepared to release the ball, and the national team fired three arrows in front.

Zhang Xian was not sure about the position of captain Zhuo Yang in the middle, so he passed the ball to the left. It turned out that he was right, because at that moment, Zhuo Yang was offside.

One shoulder is stretched out more than Mina and Sanchez, one on the left and one on the right.

But Zhuoyang didn't catch the ball, and he didn't even touch the ball again from the attack until the goal. Can this be considered offside?

able! As long as the referee thinks you can, you can also do it if you can't.

Sampaio's reason is: Zhuoyang, who was in an offside position, then entered the penalty area, causing interference to the goalkeeper and defensive players.

…

Are you convinced?

It’s so shameless!

If such a far-fetched reason were written into a post-match technical report, it might not be intuitive and could be tolerated literally, but in reality it is not judged that way.

Otherwise, as long as there is an offside on the offensive side, no matter where the offside is, the offense can be stopped.

In fact, Sampaio fired first and then set the target.

When Zhang Xian passed the ball, the linesman did not raise the flag - he was not sick. From a precise professional perspective, Sampaio observed that Zhuo Yang might be in an offside position.

After Liu Langdong scored with a supplementary shot, Sampaio took the initiative to contact the video assistant referee and asked for a judgment on whether Zhuoyang was offside just now.

VAR is only an auxiliary means of the game. All penalties are subject to the referee's decision and he is the main one. The referee can decide whether VAR intervenes and whether to use it after intervention.

It is now obvious that whether Sampaio was whistle-blowing this game with a "will" or simply because of his personal position, his whistle today was outrageous. The purpose was to prevent the Chinese team from winning and prevent the distant team from winning. The guests move forward.

The top brass of Brazil and even CONMEBOL are generally fearful of Zhuo Yang and the Chinese team, although no one talks about this fear.

Inviting Zhuo Yang and the Chinese team to participate in the America's Cup was indeed a perfect commercial operation. With Zhuo Yang's influence, the America's Cup fully developed the Asian and European markets for the first time, making more money this time than in the previous ten times.

But from a competitive perspective, the invitation from CONMEBOL and the Brazilian Football Confederation is purely to chase away wolves with bare buttocks - it is bold and shameless.

In the past season, Zhuo Yang killed a lot of people in Europe. Not to mention that he didn't have any generals at his disposal. He could pick up a lot of gall just by shouting.

Now that he is here with the Chinese team, South America immediately feels the arrival of the terrifying king.

Zhuoyang is someone who can truly challenge the traditional structure of the America's Cup, no matter who he leads.

South American football, which was once one of the two poles of the world, is now increasingly vulnerable to Europe. In particular, the influence of the America's Cup is nothing compared to the European Cup, which is no less than the World Cup.

The club is no longer on the same level. The only place where it can maintain mental equality with Europe is at the national team level, barely breathing.

But what if the private space of the America's Cup is taken away by some troublemaker?

Why hasn’t the America’s Cup invited powerful European teams with good influence and commercial value? It’s not that people don’t want to come, it’s that no one dares to invite them.

Last summer, the Brazilian Football Association enthusiastically invited the Chinese team, but looking back, Zhuoyang went from being the leader in football to being the best in the world, which made the South Americans feel chilled.

It’s still early for the America’s Cup, and since the ‘Mad Hatter’, uneasiness and fear are like ghosts, hanging over South America.

As a result, the media maliciously ridiculed the young Chunlei player and amplified the description of the Chinese team's mistakes. It seemed that except for Zhuo Yang, the rest were a piece of shit. These are actually the spiritual victory methods of South American football.

But in fact, none of the major powers standing in the front row of South America had the confidence to win the match against the Chinese team. Instead, they were terrified to the core.

The Chinese team "unexpectedly" lost to Chile in the last round of the group and "smoothly" fell to the bottom half of the quarterfinals. I don't know how much relief the host Brazil in the top half breathed.

However, CONMEBOL and the Brazilian Football Confederation did not do some dirty things out of fear. It is not about how high their moral standards are, but that in this era of endless informationization, countless pairs of eyes are wide-eyed. No matter what you do, your flaws will be revealed in the end.

When the South American bosses were watching today's live broadcast, they were also embarrassed by Sampaio's poorly concealed whistle.

There was no "will" given to him by the superiors. What Wilton Sampaio did was to speculate on the superiors' intentions, and to add drama to himself under the shadow of "horror". He had just been promoted to Brazil's No. 1 brother, and he was still feeling excited.

.

"Hey, Mr. Referee, you have to be careful." Zhuo Yang said: "Your penalty will probably go down in history. Of course, it won't be a good word."

Sampaio was still smiling, but his eyes sparkled when he heard this.

"Mr. Zhuoyang, can I understand...are you threatening me?"

It has to be said that the 38-year-old Sampaio is quite greasy. He deliberately steered the topic into a 'threat', making it very difficult for Zhuo Yang to answer.

If Zhuo Yang comes up. "Yes, I am threatening you!"

Then, Sampaio's hand that was already in his butt pocket would pull out the red card and send Zhuoyang off for the reason of "threatening the referee". The terrifying clouds hanging over South America would dissipate in an instant.

If Zhuo Yang said: "No, you misunderstood, I just remind you and discuss with you."

That means Zhuoyang has given up and will lower his momentum. In today's game, no one can interfere with Sampaio's refereeing authority.

So, ‘Are you threatening me? ’ It’s a difficult question for Zhuo Yang, no matter how you answer it.

However, Zhuo Yang smiled and said, "Are you trying to find an excuse to send me off?"

Sampaio: "..."

"I'll give you a chance." Zhuoyang said, "Look, take out the red card now and hold it high. The question is, do you dare?"

Sampaio is still smiling, but if you look closely, you can see that the corners of his mouth are twitching slightly.

His right hand touched his butt pocket, which was also shaking slightly.

"What? Don't you dare? As long as you take it out, you will have reached a new level in life, as long as you dare."

Sampaio’s back molars were trembling.

The South American bosses watching the live broadcast were divided into two groups. One group said: punish him, punish him! I'll wait until I'm punished, who cares... These people are rebels.

One group of people said: Calm down, don’t dare. A red card will be a scandal, the biggest scandal in the history of the America's Cup... They are the establishment.

It's not that Zhuoyang can't be sent off with a red card. He has been red carded many times in his career. But with his current figure, he must have a strong reason to become famous and must withstand questioning from all parties after the game.

Especially at the America's Cup, where he was specially invited, if he were to be punished, it would have to be a heinous act.

The world is bustling with people, all coming and going for fame and fortune. Sampaio was agitated, but he finally held it back. He knew very well that as soon as this red card was shown, it would be the end of his whistle-blowing career.

It was certain that he would be thrown out to calm the situation afterwards. Sampaio hopes that South American football will be good, but he will not risk all his future for it.

So, he gave up.

The Smiling Tiger still had a smile on his face and avoided Zhuo Yang's sharp attack in a kind manner.

But Zhuo Yang didn't intend to let him go.
