Wuhan Three Towns played against Chengdu Rongcheng. After Wei Shihao came on as a substitute, he kicked Deng Hanwen and was sent off with a direct red card. Most media and fans criticized him, but former international player Rong Hao chose to support him.
Rong Hao is a former left back of the national football team. He has played for many teams such as Wuhan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangzhou Evergrande. He announced his retirement in June this year. He was once teammates with Wei Shihao and Deng Hanwen.
Wei Shihao kicked Deng Hanwen and received a lot of criticism, but Rong Hao believed that Deng Hanwen was the one who kicked him!
Rong Hao wrote: "Wei Shihao can do it! My first red card was for kicking Deng Hanwen in a friendly match. Is there a possibility that everyone wants to kick him? Hahahaha, if they all kick you, then that's your problem. Why don't you kick me? Really? How about I find a team to kick him?"
Rong Hao said this because he actually had a personal grudge with Deng Hanwen. He said: "The first time I passed the ball, I was outflanked by my teammates. He stepped on my toe and broke it. The second time was when we were playing against Sanzhen Teaching in Green City. I jumped on both balls. He made a two-foot tackle from the front, and his brain was not good."
