‘Spin the ball’ Yonsei University-Kyunggi University incident, ‘retrial’ remains light punishment… “Whether there is a supervisory order or not, there is no clear reason”
On February 23, an unprecedented ‘game suspension’ occurred in the match between Yonsei University and Kyonggi University in the quarterfinals of the Spring University Football Federation. It’s a so-called ‘spin the ball’ situation.
After Yonsei University scored the opening goal in the 9th minute of the first half, the two teams did not play soccer for about 20 minutes until the 34th minute of the first half. Gyeonggi University stood by without ever coming up above the half line, and Yonsei University played a game of spinning the ball while defending below the half line.메이저사이트
Even during the game, players from both teams were seen talking on the half line, taking a break, and one player lifting the ball alone. It was, in effect, a ‘game standstill’.
It was a game that went against the spirit of fair play and abandoned sportsmanship. Since then, Yonsei University and Kyonggi University have been heavily criticized. Accordingly, the Korea University Football Federation held a fair committee on March 2 and confirmed the disciplinary action.
The Korea University Football Federation said, “We have decided to suspend participation in one upcoming tournament supervised and hosted by the Korea University Football Federation as a punishment for the two teams’ defamatory behavior.” No disciplinary action was given to the coaches of either team.
Then there was criticism that it was a light punishment. The next game hosted by the Korea University Football Federation is a 1st and 2nd year competition that does not have a high importance. For this reason, the main criticism was that the punishment was ineffective.
The top organization, the Korea Football Association, did not accept this. It was judged that the level of punishment was low. Because of this, the Korea Football Association demanded that the Korean University Football Federation re-examine this issue. Therefore, the Korea Football Federation held a retrial on the 10th and came to a conclusion. Discipline has not changed. It is as it is.
An official from the Korea University Football Federation said, “The Korea University Football Federation Fair Committee discussed in depth and came to a conclusion. Even the players were summoned and heard directly. There was no clear reason for the coach’s order. didn’t,” he said.
“The player who lifted said that he thought the game was stopped because the game was loose. It was also a tactic of both teams. I put in, but the competition table did not come up, so I explained that I did not do anything unnecessary.”
The Korean University Football Federation has decided to discipline, but it has not been finalized. The Korea Football Association’s review remains.
An official from the Korea Football Association said, “We will not give the Korean University Football Federation a chance to re-examine. As far as I know, the Korea Football Association understands that the Korean University Football Federation’s punishment is light. will decide,” he said.
