This month, European competitions such as the five major european leagues and the Champions League will come to an end, and the major leagues and European finals will have only a few games left to have a final finale. This season has been another bumper season for Asian players, with Asian players from 7 countries scoring 99 goals in just five major leagues and European competitions! Set a record for Asian players. Among them, represented by a brother Son Heung-min, one person scored 20 goals in the Premier League and European competitions, becoming the light of Asia.
Among the 99 goals, South Korean players scored 46 goals and Japanese players scored 37 goals, accounting for more than 80% of the total. The 99 goals include 83 of the five league goals and 16 goals of European competition, Son Heung-min is the most scoring of the five leagues with 19 goals, and Japan's Daichi Kamada became the European Asian goal-winning champion with five Europa League goals. South Korea and Japan have become the main force and leader of the five major European leagues in the past decade or so, which has become more and more obvious. In the European competition, although only two Iranian forwards Azmon and Taremi scored in the Champions League, Korean and Japanese players blossomed in the Europa League and the European Union, and 5 still scored 12 goals, which is also the main force for European goals.
This season, six South Korean players and nine Japanese players have scored goals in the five major leagues, with Son Heung-min scoring 19 goals and Hwang Yoshisuke scoring 11 goals in first and second place, respectively, while Japanese player Masa Okukawa, who plays in the Bundesliga, is also third with eight goals. In addition, South Korea has Wong Hee-chan, who scored five goals in the Premier League, and Jung You-young jung Yoo-young, who scored five goals in the Bundesliga, tied for fourth place. In Europe's top five leagues alone, Asian players have set an all-time record for 83 goals in a single season, more prolific than ever before! That doesn't include the 20 goals scored by Iranian striker Taremi in the Portuguese Premier League. If you count the Portuguese Super League, the Dutch First Division, the First League, the Russian Premier League, the Soviet Super League, and the Turkish Super League, the number of goals scored by Asian players can increase by more than 100 goals!
Whether it is the number of players, the number of goals scored or the quality of staying in foreign countries, Chinese football is indeed very pitiful, and it still ranks at the bottom among the existing Asian players who stay in the top five european leagues. Of the 99 goals counted by secrets, only Wu Lei scored the only goal in La Liga this season. Although the number of goals scored is tied for first place in La Liga with Li Gangren and Kubo Jianying (both are 1 goal), Wu Lei, who is alone, may end his personal career at any time. After Wu Lei, we have not seen any Chinese player play in the five major leagues. Even the young Guo Tianyu is only a gilded rhythm in the Portuguese Super League.
At present, the player with the most potential to join the five major leagues next season and explode is Iranian striker Taremi, who has scored 20 goals in the Portuguese Premier League this season, 1 goal each in the Champions League and Europa League, and has steadily increased in goal statistics in three seasons in Europe. Azmoun, who has just joined the Bundesliga, is also a golden age of 28 and is also very hopeful to play in the Champions League with Bayer Leverkusen next season. The rhythm of Iranian players following Son Heung-min in the five major leagues in the future is favored by many people in the industry because they have stronger confrontation and impact. Taremi may have the best answer starting this summer.
In addition to the three players of South Korea, Japan and Iraq, the naturalized international Holtman from the Philippines has contributed 5 goals and 4 assists in Bochum of the Bundesliga, and Uzbekistan striker Shomudorov has also 2 goals and 4 assists in Serie A. Even Australia, which now has few foreign players in the five major leagues, has two goals contributed by Frankfurt midfielder Jorustić. It is not without reason that Chinese football has fallen to the end of the Asian football world, and when we can have our own "Son Xingyu" or players from all five major leagues, we may be able to get rid of the long-term failure to win the World Cup.
