Wang Dalay is a goalkeeper who has only played in Chinese Super League including Shanghai Shenhua and Shandong Taishan since his professional debut with Shanghai Rencheng in 2006. Since 2012, he has played 41 A matches for the Chinese national team. After losing the second World Cup qualifying match against South Korea in June last year, he also shed tears. At that time, Son Heung-min approached Wang Dal-rey directly, hugged him, and comforted him, making headlines.

However, such a veteran player committed an absurd foul. Shandong's main goalkeeper, Wang Dalay, hit Felipe in the face with his hand during the second half of the match against Chengdu. Initially, the referee declared a foul, but the Chengdu players protested harshly. The VAR review was immediately carried out, and the referee confirmed that Wang Dalay's hand hit the face as Felipe passed the dribble in the foul scene and immediately declared his exit. Shandong lost 1-2 after Wang Dalay's exit, allowing Chengdu Felipe to score the winning goal. As Wang Dal-rey's foul scene became a hot topic, some fans even argued that it was a match-fixing.

It wasn't just the foul scene. After being sent off, Wang Dalay had to leave the field and hand over the captain's armband to his teammate, which he threw like a bat on the floor. Fellow Li Yuan had to pick up the captain's armband that had fallen to the ground and wear it. After the game, fans said "No one needs to handle the captain's armband carelessly", he criticized.

Wang Dalay bowed and apologized for his actions. "I would like to apologize for throwing the captain's armband on my personal SNS. I was sent off during the game, but I was overwhelmed and threw the armband without thinking. He was inconsiderate and careless, and failed to meet fans' expectations. For many years, the fans supported me in good times and bad times. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

Then 'At this moment, clubs, players, and fans are all one family, and we must move forward with one heart. When you win, you have to celebrate together, and when you lose, you have to endure together to further develop your team. I will also learn from this experience and show a calmer and more stable appearance. We will continue to fight for the team, repaying your faith and support,' he added.

On the other hand, despite the apology, there are still not a few criticisms against him. Some fans are saying, "Who gets angry so often?" This is his trick. I just burst into tears and lied to my fans", he also pointed out.
