In the second round of the top 18 of the World Preliminaries, the national football team played Saudi Arabia at home. Wu Lei got a single chance in the 27th minute, but after bursting into the penalty area, he was tripped by the lawn and made a famous scene again.
In the game against Japan, Wu Lei, who started the game, did not perform well, only 15 touches of the ball, and did not even get a shot on goal. In the face of Saudi Arabia, Ivankovic continued to start Wu Lei and formed a double striker with Fernando.
However, Ivankovic adopted a different tactic from the first game, requiring the players to press in front, and in the 5th minute of the game, Wu Lei was pulled down after breaking the ball in the frontcourt, and Rajami was yellow carded.
After the opponent scored an own goal, Wu Lei almost got a single chance in the 27th minute. Unfortunately, after breaking into the penalty area, Wu Lei suddenly fell on the lawn in embarrassment. After getting up, Wu Lei picked up a piece of lawn, and it turned out that he actually tripped over the soft lawn.
In addition to Wu Lei, Fernando and Gao Zhunyi were also repeatedly slipped and tripped by the slippery lawn. Some fans said, "This place is really bad! "This is a vegetable field converted into a stadium."
