In the early hours of this morning, Wu Lei scored a goal in the Spanish Copa del Rey, breaking the 342 consecutive days of goal drought and also scoring the first goal of the season. In addition, The Chinese women's football international Shen Mengyu also scored a goal in the women's Su Super League 2 days ago, and the two major foreign aces of the Chinese men's football team and the women's football team scored separately, which was also the first time this season.
Wu Lei has been in Europe for nearly 3 years, is currently the only Chinese player to play in the five major leagues, playing for Espanyol, Shen Mengyu is this summer from the women's Super League to the women's Super League, joined the Celtic women's football team.
As the only International Chinese national to stay in the West, Wu Lei performed well in the Round of 12, but did not perform well in La Liga for Espanyol. After returning to La Liga in the new season, Wu Lei made 13 appearances, did not score a goal, did not deliver assists, fell into a la Liga goal drought for more than 500 consecutive days, and the last time he scored for Espanyol was in the Copa del Rey in early January this year.
After waiting for a long time, Wu Lei finally scored a goal in the second round of the Copa del Rey, and it was also a long sigh of relief to release the pressure. This goal made Wu Lei the first Chinese player to score in the Copa del Rey for three consecutive seasons, and also the 15th goal of his career in Foreign Countries, including 7 goals in La Liga, 4 goals in the Copa del Rey, 2 goals in La Liga and 2 goals in the Europa League.
Unfortunately, Wu Lei still missed a single knife ball opportunity, did not have the opportunity to score twice, and was criticized by the Western media "As" after the game to continue to seize the opportunity.
Two days before Wu Lei scored, Shen Mengyu, a Chinese women's football international who played for Celtic women's football team, scored the second goal of his career in Liuyang. Shen Mengyu once inserted a forward to form a single knife opportunity, first took the ball, then quickly passed the opposing goalkeeper, and finally calmly hit the empty goal to open the record for the team.
Shen Mengyu's goal, for the ability to handle single knife balls and seize opportunities, many fans think that it is stronger than Wu Lei, and Wu Lei should also study well.
Since joining the team this season, the 20-year-old Shen Mengyu has played 12 times in the women's football team Su, scoring 2 goals, assisting 4 times, and scoring goals many times, and his performance is very outstanding, sitting in the main midfield position of the team, and the future is promising.
Wu Lei is currently completely reduced to a substitute in Espanyol, and the Copa del Rey goal will not allow him to return to the main force, and he will have to wait for the opportunity to play.
