Women's Super League goal line controversial goal

  Guangdong women's football goalkeeper questioned that there was no VAR in the game

  On April 17, in the fourth round of the 2022 Women's Super League, Guangdong Meizhou Hakka Women's Football Team lost 0-1 to Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic Women's Football Team. The winning goal was highly controversial.

  Guangdong women's football goalkeeper Peng Shimeng spoke out on social media after the game, expressing his views and dissatisfaction with the opponent's winning goal.

However, this message has now been deleted.

"If your eyes are eagle eyes, I have nothing to say. Are you 100% sure that the ball has completely crossed the line? Yes, you referees will go in if you say it goes, and if you don't, you will not go in, but with respect The players on the court? Maybe it’s because of this ball that determines the outcome of the game. Men’s football has VAR, but women’s football can’t have it? Can the bottom line referee have it?” Peng Shimeng wrote such a paragraph on social media In other words, it is believed that the opponent won because of a controversial goal, and it even pointed the finger at the current situation of the Women's Super League without VAR or even a bottom-line referee.

  The only goal in the game, which occurred in the 28th minute, was scored by Xie Ting from the Shaanxi Women's Football Team. It is impossible to accurately judge whether the goal is effective or not based on the unclear broadcast footage.

Restricted by the broadcast conditions of the Women's Super League, the goal-line disputed goal encountered by the Guangdong Women's Football Team may continue to be a question, but as the one who saved the ball directly, Peng Shimeng insisted that the ball was invalid.

Peng Shimeng posted her dissatisfaction and doubts on social platforms after the game, but this message has been deleted, and people can only restore her remarks at the time through screenshots.

  In the Women's Super League, there are few broadcast cameras and no VAR. There is indeed a big gap with the men's football game.

It is understood that the regular broadcast of the Chinese Super League usually has at least 11 seats, and the focus game is increased to 16 seats, and VAR is used to assist referees to review disputes and penalties.

However, the broadcast seats of the Women's Super League are far from enough. Even if it is a focus game, there are not as many seats as an ordinary Chinese Super League game.

At present, the Women's Super League is underway in Haikou. As the first Chinese football professional league to start in the 2022 season, the Women's Super League reached a peak of attention on the opening day.

The live broadcast of the opening ceremony and opening game was broadcast on multiple platforms, with a cumulative viewership of over 500,000 and an overall exposure of 120 million times.

The live broadcast also invited former Chinese women's football representative Han Duan, sports commentator Han Qiaosheng, and Winter Olympic gold medalist Wang Meng to participate in the commentary, trying to call on more people to understand football and pay attention to the women's football league.

However, after the high-profile opening, it was difficult for the Women's Super League to gain sustained high attention. Now some teams have encountered goal-line disputed goals, but it is difficult to restore the truth from a clearer and more directional perspective.

In terms of broadcast cameras and VAR technology alone, there is a world of difference between the Women's Super League and the men's football.

The development of the Women's Football League requires great attention from the outside world, but also real money support, not only the financial support for the team, but also the corresponding technical support for the competition, at least when there is a dispute in the competition, there is evidence according to.
