After 197 days, Wu Lei once again ushered in a La Liga start, but unfortunately he was replaced after half-time, and the number of league goals this season is still only one. After missing the opportunity to prove himself, if the Spaniard does not change the coach, then it may be difficult for him to start again.
The starting half was replaced, and Wu Lei failed to prove himself
Before this match, Wu Lei had been on the bench for 24 consecutive rounds in La Liga, and Chinese fans were very dissatisfied with this, believing that coach Vicente should give him a chance, especially after the Wuqiu King came off the bench to complete the kill.
Now, the opportunity has finally come, Wu Lei not only starts, but also plays as a striker instead of a winger, and 45 minutes is enough for him to play his ability and characteristics. However, the performance of the king of martial arts can only be said to be mediocre, and he was replaced by De Thomas after the first half.
Of course, Wu Lei could have scored: when Puado dribbled into the box, he was already facing the empty goal, but unfortunately his teammates did not pass the ball at all, and the direct shot was saved. What happens if I pass the ball? The King of Martial Arts may not be able to score, at least the chances are better.
Three major shortcomings determined that he was difficult to start in La Liga
This opportunity reflects Wu Lei's advantages: active running and sensitive running position. But with only this one advantage, it is difficult to compete for the starter in La Liga. And his shortcomings are too obvious.
First, the ability to hold the ball is insufficient. After playing for 45 minutes, Wu Lei only touched the ball 11 times, lost the ball five times, and 5 passes were rare, but only 3 times succeeded. As soon as he took the ball and passed the ball, he lost it and became an "offensive terminator", how dare his teammates pass the ball to him again?
Second, the ability to attack autonomously is poor. In this game, Wu Lei did not have any attempts, 21 appearances in the season, and only 6 attempts, the number of successes? 1 time! To be honest, such technical skills, in the Spanish team is difficult to conquer teammates, win their trust, people may not be secretly slandered.
Third, the role is too single, and the contribution to the team is not enough. Wu Lei does not have the ability to fight alone, and is not good at feeding his teammates cakes, the shooting efficiency is not high, the number of goals is too small, in addition to running actively, willing to defend, can not make more contributions to the team on the field.
Therefore, Vicente has not let him start, but only as a substitute, and after the opponent's physical fitness has declined, he will send Wu Lei to rush up at the last moment of the game.
Compared with Sun Xingyu, the Chinese brother is too far away
These shortcomings of "China's first brother" Wu Lei, placed on the "Asian brother" Sun Xingyu, are all advantages, so the latter can become the main force of the Premier League giants Tottenham.
Son Heung-min's strongest point, of course, is the shooting, this season the Premier League has scored 20 goals, the top scorer list is second only to Salah, and left and right bows, the number of reverse foot goals has reached the Premier League single season record. Wu Lei, on the other hand, has only scored 1 goal in La Liga.
Sun also has 7 assists and forms one of the strongest duos in Premier League history with Harry Kane. Wu Lei has 0 assists in the season, and the forward partners basically have no cooperation, whether it is De Thomas or Puado, they do not like to pass the ball to him, which is probably not only the reason for the other side.
Averaging 1.5 successful passes per game, as well as wonderful goals on long-distance runs, it also shows Son Heung-min's super personal ability, which is where Wu Lei is particularly inferior.
You know, Sun Xingyu is only less than a year younger than Wu Lei, so it has nothing to do with age, it is just a pure gap in ability, but it is the most difficult to look back on, because no, it is not ok.
