In the 31st round of La Liga, Espanyol played Celta at home, Wu Lei entered the squad, and scored a killer goal after coming off the bench! It was also his La Liga debut this season.
In the previous two rounds against Mallorca and Real Sociedad, Wu Lei did not get a chance to play, and his last appearance was against Levante on March 12, but he only played 10 minutes and only touched the ball twice.
In this game, with the comeback of De Thomas, Wu Lei has no chance. He has unsurprisingly not started and has been on the bench for 21 consecutive rounds! The last time they started was in Getafe last October, but they were replaced after the end of the first half and have since bid farewell to the main squad once and for all.
In the first half, espanyol did not perform well on the offensive side, with none of the four shots on target. So in the 52nd minute, Wu Lei and some teammates left the bench and ran to the sideline to start warming up.
In the 67th minute, Wu Lei replaced Embarba and came off the bench early! In the 84th minute, Wu Lei's right-footed shot from the right side of the penalty area was saved by the opposing goalkeeper. In the 90th minute, Wu Lei's right-footed blast from inside the penalty area broke the goal, 1-0!
This is Wu Lei's la Liga debut this season, the last time he scored in La Liga was on June 13, 2020, 667 days ago!
