VFF does not know the rules or is it difficult for Quang Ninh?

(Baonghean.vn) - The fact that the VFF Disciplinary Committee fined foreign player Joel Vinicius and only announced it 3 hours before the match, and did not erase the unjust red card of Duong Van Khoa, has caused a stir in public opinion. VFF has gone against the spirit of Fair Play that they are calling on officials and players of football teams to follow.

The VFF Disciplinary Board's two-match suspension of striker Joel Vinicius did not cause any reaction. Obviously, striker Joel Vinicius of Than Quang Ninh had a violent act towards defender Ho Tan Tai in the match between Than Quang Ninh and B. Binh Duong in round 22 of V-League. But his subsequent behavior caused a stir in public opinion.

VFF's time-wasting error

The strange thing is that the match between B. Binh Duong and Than Quang Ninh took place on September 14, but why was the penalty only given on September 18, just three hours before round 23 when the Than Quang Ninh team leaders had prepared all the tactics for the match?

Fans of Quang Ninh and their team have been wondering where the members of the Disciplinary Board have been and what they have been doing for the past four days. It seems like they have been sitting around waiting for the video to arrive, waiting for the evidence to arrive, then sitting down to examine and judge.

Not only was Quang Ninh disadvantaged because of the “time-wasting” error, there was also a case where player Duong Van Khoa was wrongly accused but was not given his “name back”. In the 63rd minute of the match against B. Binh Duong, Duong Van Khoa used his head (and face) to save the ball but referee Van Lap thought he used his hand to play the ball.

As a result, Van Khoa received a red card, causing Than Quang Ninh to lose a player from then on and receive an unfair penalty. And the injustice that the whole village knew about continued to the 23rd round match where Van Khoa and Than Quang Ninh had to accept the loss.

Disciplinary Board wrong, who to handle?

Immediately after the match, Than Quang Ninh lodged a complaint, expressing their wish that the tournament's Executive Board review Van Khoa's red card. According to the representative of the team from the mining land, the red card was incorrect and should be deleted. However, according to Mr. Tran Anh Tu, Head of the V.League Executive Board, Van Khoa's red card cannot be deleted.

Mr. Tu said: “We share the thoughts and wishes of the Than Quang Ninh team as well as the player Van Khoa personally. However, the law does not allow the card to be removed even if the decision comes from the referee's mistake. If the referee is wrong, the Disciplinary Board will have a form of handling, but the penalty cannot be changed because it is against the law.”

Perhaps as a “layman”, Mr. Tu is not very knowledgeable about FIFA rules, but why do the members of the Disciplinary Committee not have a firm grasp of these provisions? Recalling La Liga 2014 (December 2014), the Disciplinary Committee of the Spanish Football Federation decided to remove the yellow card for Leo Messi that he received in the match against Valencia..

In the match against Valencia, Messi was hit in the head by a water bottle thrown by a fan. He was in pain and was unable to return to the game immediately. The referee did not see the water bottle thrown at Messi's head, so he gave Messi a yellow card because he thought he was deliberately stalling for time. After reviewing the video, the Spanish Football Federation's Disciplinary Committee decided to remove Messi's yellow card.

Last year, in West Ham's 0-2 loss to Man United in round 20 of the 2017 Premier League, Sofiane Feghouli received a red card in the 15th minute after a tackle with Phil Jones.

This was a controversial decision by referee Mike Dean. West Ham sent a complaint to the FA to appeal the red card given to Feghouli and was successful. The English Football Association overturned the French midfielder's three-match suspension.

Let's Play Fair!

The biggest principle of FIFA is Fair Play. This is a prerequisite for developing football and for football to become the king of sports..FIFA even established the FIFA Fair Play Award to recognize exemplary behavior that promotes fair play and humanity in football around the world.

So whether they know the rules or not, the Disciplinary Board penalized the players for their unsportsmanlike behavior but did not erase Van Khoa's red card due to the referee's mistake, which also shows an unfair spirit of play..
