The national football team is about to usher in the final round of the group stage with Qatar at 23 o'clock in the evening of January 22, Beijing time, and today, according to a number of media reports, Wei Shihao, who has been affected by injuries and has not been able to play, has participated in the national football joint training and played in the Qatar team.
It is reported that all 26 players participated in the joint training during yesterday's preparation, and in today's training of the national football team, Wei Shihao, who missed two games due to injury, has resumed training with the ball. Judging from the video at the scene, Wei Shihao was in good shape when he touched the ball, which also made many fans look forward to whether he can appear in the final round of the group stage of the National Football Asian Cup.
Before the national football team's first game against Tajikistan, Wei Shihao was injured in training and was not selected for the team, and Jankovic said at the time that his injury was not very serious and that he would return for the rest of the game. However, he did not recover so quickly and has been absent from the team's joint training for the rest of the year, including the second game against Lebanon. In these two games, the national football team drew 0-0 with the opponent, and at the same time relied on the advantage of goal difference to temporarily rank second in Group A.
It can be said that Wei Shihao's absence has made the national football team less creative in these two games, and Dai Weijun's role on the wing is not obvious, although he is dutiful, the midfield position may be more suitable for Dai Weijun. In contrast, Wei Shihao's spirituality and breakthrough can allow him to form a blast on the flanks, which has already made a very strong impression in the previous World Cup qualifiers......
Before the final round against Qatar, the news that Wei Shihao may return is undoubtedly a major positive, and the good news may be more than that! In Qatar's second round against Tajikistan, Pedro, the main naturalized defender who received a yellow card in the first round, did not start and did not come on as a substitute until the 87th minute of the second half. However, just minutes after coming on the pitch, Pedro deliberately delayed time in stoppage time and received a yellow card. Although it is not ruled out that it deliberately shuffles to prepare for the knockout round, it is also good news for the national football team to miss the final round of competition.
Of course, national football fans still hope that Wei Shihao can show his style in the Asian Cup. After all, so far in his career, the 28-year-old Wei Shihao has not played in the Asian Cup. In the last 2019 Asian Cup, Wei Shihao was injured and sat on the bench throughout the whole process and did not get the opportunity to play!
I hope that in the final round of the Asian Cup, Wei Shihao will not only be able to make his national team's Asian Cup debut, but also hope that his appearance can bring surprises to the national team and fans!
