The Christmas war has just passed, and La Liga will usher in a highly anticipated year-end showdown. Espanyol as the "home team" of Chinese fans, naturally the most concerned team in the league, this round of matches, Wu Lei will follow to the away to challenge Valencia, the Spaniards have not defeated the Bat Army for 14 years, the pressure on the shoulders of coach Moreno is very large.
Just before the start of the match, at 5 o'clock in the afternoon of Beijing time on December 28, the Spaniard officially announced that 7 people inside the team were accidentally infected with the new crown virus, including five players. Such news is definitely a huge blow to the Spaniards, but fortunately, the Chinese player Wu Lei is not infected with the new crown, which has just traveled to the United Arab Emirates exclusively, and has always stayed with his family, not to mention that he has been diagnosed with the new crown last year, so after recovering, his body has produced antibodies, and now his body has always remained healthy.
That is to say, at least five Espanyol players in this game can not accompany the team to play the year-end battle with Valencia, although this is a helpless news, but for Wu Lei may be an opportunity to ascend to the top. In the case of a greatly reduced depth of the team lineup, Wu Lei can naturally get more playing time, at present, Wu Lei has suffered a 564-day ball shortage in La Liga, the last goal was back to June 16, 2020, the Spaniard's home game against Alaves, when Wu Lei used the flexible running position to reverse the offside success, calmly pushed the goal, and his goal finally helped the team win 2-0.
Looking back on this wonderful goal now, it seems that it is still in front of you. In favor of Wu Lei, Valencia is one of his favorite opponents in La Liga. Since joining Espanyol, Wu Lei has faced all three times the Bat Army in the past three times to get the starting opportunity, on November 2, 2019 at the Espanyol home, Wu Lei repeatedly made threats in 64 minutes, sending 8 successful passes, including 3 key passes, and the 2020 home game against Varun, Wu Lei had a great scoring opportunity in the opening 12 minutes, but unfortunately his burst was slightly higher than the crossbar.
It can be seen that when facing The opponent of Waren, Wu Lei's mental state is very excited, coupled with the current personnel of the team is not neat, so Moreno also has to choose to trust Wu Lei. In the last two La Liga matches, Espanyol's form has fluctuated greatly, first a 4-3 home win over Levante, but then a 3-1 win away from Celta, and espanyol has not yet won the league away this season. With Espanyol still six points left in the European qualifying zone, if they can win, they will be able to close the gap with Barca to 2 points.
For Wu Lei, the most important thing at present is not to lose confidence, the ball shortage is a normal natural law for the forward, to know that messi has also suffered five rounds of league goals in Paris, and has only scored 1 goal in 11 appearances this season, the only goal is back to November 21, not to mention that Wu Lei has a far less chance than Messi. As the ace of Chinese football, fans also need to give Wu Lei enough patience, believing that with his efforts, the goal will come sooner or later.
