On December 15, Beijing time, the second round of the Copa del Rey, Espanyol beat the low-level team Kristu Athletic 2-1, and Wu Lei scored the first goal of the season, ending his club's 342-day game drought. After the goal, Wu Lei breathed a sigh of relief. This goal, Wu Lei showed a world-class running position. Chinese fans, it's the New Year!
Against Tier 4 team Kristu Athletic, Wu Lei started and finally scored. In the first 20 seconds of the second half, Mo Long's cross from the outside of his foot, Wu Lei showed a world-class running position, the ball to the person to complete the goal, and received his first goal of the club competition this season! After scoring the goal, Wu Lei took a long breath and relieved his pressure.
It was Wu Lei's first goal in 342 days! The last goal was also in the Copa del Rey, on January 7 this year, Espanyol beat Burges 2-0, and Wu Lei's goal helped the team advance. In the Copa del Rey, Wu Lei scored 4 goals in 8 appearances and 2 assists, which was a good performance. Of course, Wu Lei has not scored in La Liga this season and needs to work harder. Unfortunately, after that, Wu Lei also missed a single knife, and he did not have the opportunity to open the second degree. In the 58th minute, Wu Lei was replaced, this time he scored a goal, missed 1 scoring opportunity, 5 confrontations were lost, touched the ball 21 times, 13 passes 12 times successfully, and scored 7.0 points.
In the 86th minute, espanyol scored again. Sergi Gomez, who came off the bench for Espanyol, seized the opportunity to score in a chaotic battle in front of the goal, and the Spaniards killed the opponent 2-1 and refused to go cold!
In this way, the Spaniards continued to advance in the Copa del Rey. Considering that Wu Lei's main task this season is the Copa del Rey, I believe that this goal can allow Wu Lei to continue to get starting opportunities at least in the Copa del Rey. Wu Lei, come on!
