For the national football striker Wu Lei, his hope of continuing to stay in Espanyol to play has become more and more slim, and it is difficult for him to be satisfied with whether it is the coach's value positioning for Wu Lei or the willingness of his teammates to cooperate with Wu Lei.
In the quarter-finals of the Spanish Copa del Rey last night, Wu Lei represented Espanyol and came off the bench in the 90th minute of the game, although he only played for a few minutes, Wu Lei still created a very threatening attacking opportunity in the final stages of the game. In the 97th minute of injury time, the substitute striker Mo Long, who played on the right side of the high ball from 45 degrees, although the ball was erratic and slightly deflected in the direction of the goalkeeper, but Wu Lei relied on his keen sense of smell in front of the goal, or quickly stepped forward to get the opportunity to shoot, but this foot Wu Lei's pad shot failed to kick the right part, and was easily saved by the opposing goalkeeper.
It is reasonable to say that Wu Lei was able to compete for this hard-won opportunity to complete the shot, which is already a very good performance, but because Wu Lei failed to score the ball, his teammates still expressed dissatisfaction with him, some people held their heads with chagrin, and some people angrily shouted at the sky, but Moranes, who was also a substitute, shouted viciously at Wu Lei, and his hands were still waving, as if this ball could not be scored, it was completely the responsibility of Wu Lei.
This is not the first time that Wu Lei has been on the field, feeling isolated from his teammates, before he ran out of the gap in many games but no teammates were willing to pass for him, which made Wu Lei's data worse and worse, and the opportunity to play was less and less, the last time he started for Espanyol, it dates back to December 15th with the lower league team, Cristo Athletic's Copa del Rey match, and in the past 10 league rounds, Wu Lei has not been able to get a starting opportunity, He played only 28 minutes in ten games, and all these factors added up to make Wu Lei really think about leaving Espanyol.
Some European media have reported that Wu Lei may leave La Liga during the winter break and go to other leagues to seek opportunities to prove himself, but no matter where Wu Lei's next stop is, he hopes that he will have the opportunity to join a team that is really willing to cultivate him and give him a stable playing time.
