34-year-old Wu Xi reappeared in amateur defense, will he be expelled from the national team after the Asian Cup?
In the game where the national football team lost 0-1 to the Qatar team, the 34-year-old Wu Xi made his debut again. And he also wore the captain's armband. However, judging from the picture when the national football team lost the goal, the 34-year-old Wu Xi is really a little ashamed of the identity of the captain. Jankovic selected him into the national football team, which is really a lose-lose situation, not only the strength of the national football team has been greatly reduced, but Wu Xi himself has once again suffered huge criticism. Many fans also suggested that after the Asian Cup, the national team should completely expel Wu Xi and give up the position to young internationals.
At the moment when the national football team lost the ball, 34-year-old Wu Xi reappeared "amateur" behavior
The goal scored by the national football team by the Qatar team, judging from slow motion, is actually completely avoidable. In the whole process of losing the ball, it can be said that captain Wu Xi bears a lot of responsibility.
At that time, the Qatar team got a corner kick opportunity, and Wu Xi at this time was actually completely unable to run. Before the Qatar team won the corner, Wu Xi's running was a little limping. For a 34-year-old veteran, it's normal not to be able to run. The abnormal thing is that you can still start without running.
When the Chinese team was defending the corner kick of the Qatar team, the captain Wu Xi was in the penalty area, and he couldn't find his position. He first stood in the no-man's land and swayed, and then turned around and wanted to squeeze behind Lin Liangming to participate in the defense. But after thinking about it for a while, Wu Xi ran to a place where there were no Qatar team players in front of him.
When the Qatar team had not yet taken a corner kick, Wu Xi turned his head and saw Afif's position, which was undefended. As the captain, Wu Xi made at least 2 mistakes this time!
First: did not remind teammates to hurry up and mark Afif.
Second: I didn't run to keep an eye on Afif. Afif came off the bench and was Qatar's top scorer. The Chinese team did not target Afif at this time, which is equivalent to ignoring Messi's existence. The end result is that the national football team pays a high price.
After Afif received the corner kick, it was too late for Wu Xi to run to defend, and judging from his running movements, it was obvious that he was already physically exhausted and his movements were deformed.
Generally speaking, the captain of a team must have a strong sense of responsibility and honor. Like Wu Xi's defense this time, he is actually completely irresponsible, and he can't run by himself, so he has to call at least one teammate to defend. But Wu Xi didn't do anything.
It is worth reminding that this is not the first time that Wu Xi has had this kind of behavior in the national team. In the last World Preliminaries, when the national football team played against the Vietnamese team, Wu Xi was criticized by the fans because of a subconscious action of dodging the ball.
But unfortunately, the lack of Chinese football talent has led to such players with a weak sense of responsibility, who can still be reused by the national team after making mistakes.
When Wu Xi was young, he also brought many amazing performances to fans. But as he got older, his physical strength and desire to win were not very strong. This kind of veteran who has become accustomed to losing, sometimes being selected for the national team, actually brings a very bad atmosphere.
Many fans also suggested that after the Asian Cup, the national team should directly expel veterans like Wu Xi. Continuing to reuse them will not only affect the national football team, but also the players themselves.
Since the veterans also lose, and the young players also lose, why not give up the position to the more promising young players?
