Google search result shows article category rather than the whole url?

Hi, as I described in the title, Google search result shows article category rather than the whole url.

For example: I google the keyword "best android phone lists", the google search result shows the right title and meta description of the post, but the url shows: example.com/android-phone

However, my whole url is example.com/best-android-phone-lists, android phone is the category of this article.

When I click the search result, it directs me to the right url.

I use wordpress with newspaper 9 theme.
I also checked my yoast SEO and my breadcrumb setting is disabled.
my permalink setting is example.com/postname.

I don't know how to fix this issue, please help me.
Thanks in advance.

    I guess I am unclear on why you think this is an "issue" to begin with. Do you think you are getting less clicks because the URL that is being displayed?

    Frankly, most people would be happy that they showed up in the results and that when someone clicked the result, it took them to the right place.

    Seems like a lot of fret being wasted over a non-issue to me.
