(Baonghean.vn) - Mr. Chien not only ruined the North Central derby party, but if FLC Thanh Hoa wins this year with these 2 points, then the referee has ruined the whole season, and more deeply, he is contributing to tarnishing the image of Vietnamese football with his distorted whistles...

Dear Mr. Cao Van Chong, General Director of VPF

Mr. Nguyen Minh Ngoc, head of V-League 2016 organizing committee

Mr. Nguyen Hai Huong, Head of Disciplinary Committee

Mr. Nguyen Van Mui, Head of Arbitration Board.

I am the author of the article“Referee Ha Anh Chien ruined the North Central derby party”posted on Nghe An Newspaper. It seems that it is not enough to reflect the anger of the majority of fans, so even though it is late at night, I still write to you. Mr. Chien not only ruined the North Central derby party, but if FLC Thanh Hoa wins this year with these 2 points, then the referee has ruined the whole season, and more deeply, he is contributing to the deterioration of the image of Vietnamese football with his distorted whistles.

Gentlemen! Mr. Chien is being wronged, people only mention the imaginary penalty situation in the 88th minute without knowing that throughout the match he intended to blow the ball in favor of the home team FLC Thanh Hoa, if you dissect the tape you will see clearly. I will only point out 3 crude situations for you to ponder and get bored with the fans...

Referee Ha Anh Chien's controversial whistle ruined the exciting derby.

In the early game, in a ball control situation without any dispute, referee Chien still gave Ngoc Duc a yellow card for accidentally letting the ball touch his hand. This was an indirect card that helped Quoc Phuong of FLC Thanh Hoa have the opportunity to make this attack.

In the 38th minute, Quy Suu pulled Baba's pants down past his knees in a counter-attack situation, but the referee surprisingly ignored it. Perhaps referee Chien thought "this was just an exaggerated joke and the pants were not down past the ankles"?!! I don't believe that the Referee Board would set a "pants-down standard" different from FIFA's regulations in counter-attack situations!

And the third situation is the penalty at the end of the match.

It is difficult to explain why referee Chien did not give a yellow card to Thanh Hoa player for this foul.

Mr. Cao Van Chong said that "90% of the team's complaints about the referee are wrong", but this time it is not, without having to dissect the tape, people can determine that Ha Van Chien has gone beyond the tolerance limit of football fans. An ophthalmologist said that "at a distance of 6m, with only 3/10 vision, people can determine that the foul point is 1.86m from the 16.5m boundary line, but referee Chien could not, assistant Cao Thanh Tu could not, and referee supervisor Doan Phu Tan shook his head in disappointment.

Watching the match, journalist Minh Hai exclaimed, "Knowing it was wrong but not daring to blow the whistle is cowardly", experts said, "Doing that... is reckless". Public opinion raised the question, "Why did Ha Anh Chien dare to arrogantly blow the whistle like that, is it because he has someone backing him up?". Football experts all said that, with referees with experience, the match was broadcast live on VTV6, few referees would dare to "push the guest" like that, even though they knew the match was almost over? Public opinion was buzzing, "Probably after only five or three matches, the cat would return to the cat" so they dared to "take the punch and eat the sticky rice"?

We do not believe so, those who are trying their best to bring a clean image to our country's football will certainly not support such distorted whistles! I also do not believe that you only calm the anger by secretly suspending a few matches because that will only harm our country's football. Recently, when making the wrong decision, awarding Bayern a penalty after Arturo Vidal's dramatic play, referee Tobias Stieler apologized. His actions received sympathy from fans and the Bremen club, but until now, referee Chien still does not, does not admit his gross mistake.

Regarding Quang Truong's red card, many fans expressed their support for this captain when he dared to fight for clean football. Stand up and speak for the fans: We need justice!

Coach Ngo Quang Truong was upset with the referee's way of blowing the whistle.

One afternoon, 15,000 spectators came to the stadium along with 2 million spectators watching the FLC Thanh Hoa-SLNA match and expressed their dissatisfaction with the referee Ha Anh Chien. That same name has robbed the fans of the little trust they still have in a football scene with too many scandals. Whether you stand on the side of the majority of fans or "have no basis" to handle referee Chien is up to you, but with this letter, we want to say: The quality of referees is very bad, gentlemen!

Dear!

Nghe An audience!
