Everyone knows that "Feng Wuli" has accompanied Chinese football for many years, but in the past two years, everyone has not mentioned it, why is this? It's actually very simple, because we have a homegrown center who has risen and his rise has temporarily solved the problem of hardness and goals in our center position. The homegrown striker is Zhang Yuning.
Zhang Yuning, who became famous at a young age, scored the first goal of a Chinese player in the Eredivisie at the age of 19, and scored twice in his national team debut in the same year. At that time, he was already considered the hope of the future striker of the national football team. And Zhang Yuning is also the player with the most age group selected, he has been selected for the 93, 95, 97 national youth and national teams, the span is jaw-dropping. This actually proves that he is an indispensable player in Chinese football.
However, since Zhang Yuning moved to Bundesliga side Bremen and did not play for one season, his luck has not been good. Participating in the tournament with the national brand will always be injured, and his injury has led to our national brand being eliminated. And because of the injury, it also caused his development in Europe to be not very smooth. Finally, he chose to return to China in the 2019 season and joined the Beijing Guoan team. And this choice also made Zhang Yuning gradually mature, and in the round of 12, he successfully replaced the naturalized player Axon and became the main center of the national football team. With him, the national football team has a fulcrum in the front and hardness. At the club, Zhang Yuning scored 19 goals for Beijing Guoan last season, won the bronze boot of the Chinese Super League, and pressed a lot of foreign aid under him.
Because of Zhang Yuning's outbreak, we feel that we are no longer powerless. But recently Zhang Yuning has suffered another injury, no, now the Asian Games team that needs him so much has no center forward. Zhang Yuning was injured the last time he played in the East Asian Cup, and Jankovic had to find 34-year-old veteran Tan Long to fill it. Now, Jankovic has been promoted to the head coach of the national team, and Tan Long has also been brought to the national team by him. So what should the Asian Games team do?
Recently, it seems that we have the answer, that is, the Asian Games team has a center forward rising, and his rise seems to make us think that it is not too important whether Zhang Yuning and Tan Long come or not. The center is Hebei team's 22-year-old Tugun Zhang Wei. Just recently, the Asian Games team played a warm-up match in the West Ira training against the local Peninsula Club reserve team in Abu Dhabi, which resulted in a 1-1 draw between the two sides, with Zhang Wei scoring a goal for the national Asian Games team. Zhang Wei started as the main starter and helped the Asian Games team open the scoring in the first half, and in the second half the team rotated the lineup, and the substitute lineup also gave the opponent a penalty, and finally the game was 1-1.
It is worth noting that this is not the first time Zhang Wei has scored, in the previous Asian Games team and a local team called "TFA Dubai", Zhang Wei scored the Asian Games team's overthrow goal, and finally helped the Asian Games team win 4-1 against their opponents. In the first game in which new coach Gyurjevic arrived, he scored again. I have to say that his strength can no longer be hidden.
In fact, Zhang Wei is lucky to shine in the center position. Because when he went from Hebei's U19 to the first team, he was used as a central defender by foreign coaches. But later, because of the serious financial difficulties of the Hebei team, the front line lacked a major general, and he had to be pushed to the front line. Unexpectedly, this move became an unintentional insertion. Young player Zhang Wei plays very well in the forward position, he has height and can be a fulcrum, his foot technique and movement are good, especially he also has a very good sense of shooting and scoring, his shooting is very imaginative. In the 2022 season, Zhang Wei played 22 games for the team, starting 12 of them, scoring 6 goals and 1 assist. If it weren't for injuries and unpaid wages, Zhang's numbers might have been better.
Of course, Zhang Wei is not only good data, many industry insiders and media people believe that Zhang Wei is definitely a forgeable material in the center position. And at present, Zhang Wei's performance in the national brand is also very good, to know that this selection of the Asian Games team is his first time selected for the national brand, I have to say that he is now the biggest surprise of the Chinese football blind box.
Do you think Zhang Wei is worth looking forward to? Compared to Zhang Yuning, does he have any advantages? Welcome friends to discuss together in the comment area!
