Jeonbuk Raises Objection to K-League Over ‘Replacement Mistake’ Incident… Request for Pohang Forfeiture
Jeonbuk Hyundai, a professional soccer team, officially requested the Korea Professional Football League to “forfeit” the opponent’s game in relation to the Pohang Steelers match, in which the team had to face 12 opposing players on record due to a player substitution mistake.
Jeonbuk Club announced on the 29th that it submitted an official letter of objection to the Professional Federation requesting Pohang’s 0-3 forfeit against Pohang in the 35th round of K League 1 and post-expulsion punishment for Pohang’s Kim In-seong and Shin Kwang-hoon.
Jeonbuk based its argument on the player replacement procedure provisions of the International Football Association Board (IFAB) game rules and professional league regulations that deem the player’s club to have lost 0-3 if an ‘unqualified player’ participates in the game. 카지노
In the match in question held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium the day before, a skit took place in which 12 Pohang players played.
In the 23rd minute of the first half, Pohang fullback Kim Yong-hwan was injured and could not continue the game
So Pohang tried to substitute fullback Shin Gwang-hoon in place of Kim Yong-hwan.
But Pohang made a mistake.
The replacement table was submitted with ‘No. 7 Kim In-seong out, No. 17 Shin Gwang-hoon in’.
The replacement board held up by the second referee had striker Kim In-seong’s number 7 written on it, not Kim Yong-hwan’s number 3.
If the referee had clearly carried out the substitution like this, it would have ended up being an ‘internal mistake within Pohang’.
However, the incident turned out to be complicated.
While Kim Yong-hwan was outside the ground, Shin Kwang-hoon entered the ground, and Kim In-seong continued to play.
This situation lasted for 6 minutes, and the Jeonbuk bench protested to the referee.
Pohang had to belatedly replace Kim Yong-hwan and Kim Seung-dae, who returned to the bench in the 32nd minute of the first half.
Although Kim Yong-Hwan was off the field due to injury, Pohang faced Jeonbuk with 12 players for about 6 minutes.
Kim In-seong could be an ‘unqualified player’ on paper.
The game between Jeonbuk and Pohang ended in a 1-1 draw.
Jeonbuk said, “This is a case where the player replacement procedure, which is the most basic and important principle in the game rules and regulations, is incorrect, and this is an issue that cannot be taken lightly,”
Adding, “An accurate decision is necessary for the status of the K-League.
The professional soccer federation’s wise decision is necessary.”
“I look forward to your judgment,” he said.
A Pohang official said, “It is true that it was our intention to remove Kim Yong-hwan and add Shin Kwang-hoon, but if the referee had done the ‘replacement work by removing Kim In-seong and inserting Shin Kwang-hoon’ as we made a ‘mistake’, there would have been no problem,” the professional league said.
“I will wait for the decision,” he said. 메이저 토토사이트
