Amateur? The 31-year-old Harbour international was teased by Japanese players! Hands raised high after being cut inside + watching the ball drop

On the evening of March 4, Beijing time, the first leg of the 1/8 finals of the AFC Champions League kicked off, and Shanghai Port hosted Yokohama Mariners. In the first half, Harbour conceded the first goal. In the process of conceding the ball, the 31-year-old Harbour central defender Li Ang's "hands high" in the face of the Japanese players in the defense also aroused heated discussions among fans.

The goal conceded by the harbor occurred in the 29th minute of the game, Ken Matsubara crossed to the penalty area from the right side, Asahi Uechu stuck the inverted triangle pass, Yang Shiyuan, who returned to the defense, cleared the ball and accidentally turned into an own assist, and former Chinese Super League foreign player Anderson Lopes nodded the goal to help Yokohama Mariners break the deadlock.

It is worth noting that Harbour centre-back Leon has been quite controversial in this defence. He watched as Asahi Uechu burst into the penalty area after receiving a sideline ball from a teammate, and was caught in position by the opponent's body. Because it was in the penalty area, Li Ang did not dare to foul, so he could only "raise his hands" behind Asahi Uechu and watch the latter's cross to create a goal.

Although Li Ang may have raised his hands to show that he did not move his hands when defending, it was undoubtedly a bit amateurish to interfere with the opponent's cross without using his hands in the penalty area. Many netizens complained: "I've watched the game for so long, it's the first time I've seen Li Ang continue to defend with his hands high in the penalty area like this!" ”;“ Li Ang's defense is close to people and he doesn't dare to use force, and he doesn't stick his hands up, which makes people pass too comfortably! ”

The 31-year-old Li Ang is an active international player of the Chinese men's football team with a total of eight appearances for the national team, but since October 2023, Li Ang has not been called up to the national team.
