Reporter Lu Mi reports In the 24th round of the Chinese Super League in advance, Chengdu Rongcheng player Wei Shihao knocked down Wuhan Three Towns player Deng Hanwen, and then the former was sent off by the referee. On the afternoon of the 23rd, the fine of the Chinese Football Association came as scheduled - Wei Shihao's actions were determined to be violent, so in addition to the normal red card suspension, the Disciplinary Committee of the Chinese Football Association imposed an additional penalty of suspension for 4 rounds and a fine of 40,000 yuan.

Chengdu Rongcheng was injured for 3 weeks when Hu Hetao was injured, and Wei Shihao was fined, and the side was overstretched. At the same time, in the upcoming national team training camp, since Wei Shihao will have no games to play for nearly a month, Ivankovic has a certain probability that he will not consider calling Wei Shihao. As a result, for the Chengdu club and Wei Shihao himself, the loss can be described as heavy.

The match between Chengdu Rongcheng and Wuhan Three Towns was played on Saturday and the result was 1-1, and the draw looked like a calm game, but in fact the two sides clashed in the process, with the referee showing a total of eight yellow cards and two red cards. Ren Hang, the captain of Wuhan Three Towns, turned two yellows and one red because of a foul, while Wei Shihao kicked his crotch from behind with his leg in the confrontation with Deng Hanwen and was directly sent off with a red card by the referee.

In fact, there is no past "grievance" between Chengdu Rongcheng and Wuhan Three Towns, and there are only three players who have been transferred from the Three Towns to Chengdu Rongcheng this year - Wei Shihao, Yan Dinghao and Li Yang. This game was also the first time they returned to the Wuhan Sports Center as a member of the away team. Wei Shihao's red card was interpreted as "malicious retaliation", and within a day of that, it was widely interpreted as his personal targeting of Deng Hanwen.

As we all know, Wei Shihao and Deng Hanwen once played for Guangzhou Evergrande together, and successively switched to Wuhan Three Towns. I have only been together for 1 year in the three towns of Wuhan. Wuhan Three Towns from the beginning of the promotion, recruited a lot of Suning veterans and Evergrande veterans, at that time in the team, Deng Hanwen did not as the outside world imagined, with many old teammates from Evergrande. This is actually his personality all along, but it is somewhat of a loner. Therefore, it is indeed far-fetched for Wei Shihao to deliberately target Deng Hanwen.

On the second day of the incident, Wei Shihao apologized for his behavior on his personal social media, saying: "I want to say sorry to the dear Chengdu 5000 Expeditionary Force and dear Wuhan fans. I heard your cheers and shouts for me on and off the field, and I felt from the bottom of my heart that you cared for me and tolerated me. But if you do something wrong, you do it wrong, whether it's impulsive or because of my personal reasons, I should say sorry to you first. ”

This apology eased the public's mood to a certain extent, and then, on the 23rd, the fine of the Chinese Football Association came. The announcement pointed out that Wei Shihao's "crotch kicking" behavior against Deng Hanwen was a violent act, so the Disciplinary Committee of the Chinese Football Association imposed a suspension of 4 rounds and a fine of 40,000 yuan. This also means that Wei Shihao will be suspended for 4 rounds and will miss the matches against Zhejiang, Changchun Yatai, Shenzhen Xinpeng City, Shandong Taishan and Beijing Guoan. Back on the pitch again, we have to wait until the match against Henan on September 21.

In the match with Wuhan Three Towns, winger Hu Hetao left the field early due to injury, and was diagnosed with a torn ligament after the game and needed to rest for three weeks. Wei Shihao was suspended again, and Chengdu Rongcheng's personnel on the side were actually only left with Mutalifu. This is a big test for Chengdu Rongcheng.

After the ticket came out, Wei Shihao expressed his attitude through social media, and there were players from other teams who had similar fouls before, but they were not sent off with a red card, nor were they chased after the fact. This has also caused widespread discussion to a certain extent. However, this fine, coming at this time, has an impact on Wei Shihao's personal life is not limited to himself and the Rongcheng Club.

The Asian qualifiers for the World Preliminary Championship will be held in September, and the Chinese men's football team will regroup in August. Wei Shihao was previously under Ivan, and he was not the main player himself, on the one hand, due to physical reasons, and on the other hand, the outside world speculated that it was also related to his personality on the court. Although Wei Shihao was one of the heroes in the previous round of 36, the national football team defeated Thailand, but this fine will cause Wei Shihao to be unable to play in the league for a long time, which will greatly affect Ivan's selection decision. For the 29-year-old Wei Shihao, if he is absent from this World Preliminaries, it may also have a greater impact on his international career.
