In the 2018 season of the Chinese Super League, Wu Lei won the Golden Boot of the Chinese Super League with 27 goals, and Oscar broke the 12-year record of the Chinese Super League with 18 assists, and was elected the assist king of the Chinese Super League in the 2018 season. Wu Lei scored 10 assists for Oscar in his 27 goals. Similarly, of Oscar's 18 assists, Wu Lei converted Oscar's pass into Oscar's assists of 10. Therefore, the "Owu Connection" of SIPG is mutually successful! After confirming the news of Wu Lei's transfer to Espanyol, when Wu Lei had not yet left for Spain, Oscar and Wu Lei joked, "I don't know if you can score so many goals when you go there, because I'm not there." Oscar's worries are not unreasonable, after all, new teammates, new playing methods need time to run in, assists and goals need tacit understanding, and all this for Wu Lei has to start over!
Wu Lei's running position is super first-class, after running out of the gap, his teammates are of course happy to pass the ball and become assists, and the two games in La Liga Wu Lei's playing time is not much, even if it is only 81 minutes in stoppage time, but these two games confirm all this. Who is happy to make a wedding dress for Wu Lei? Let's share it with you.
The first game was against Villarreal
79'25'' Wu Lei touched the ball for the first time in La Liga, and the pass was the team's centre-back No. 15 David López

After the 91'27'' opponent's corner kick was released, the defender broke the no. 23 Granero with the ball and rushed hard, the Villarreal player followed closely behind the interference, and the No. 23 Granero was assigned to Wu Lei, who followed up on the right side in time, Wu Lei estimated that the physical fitness was insufficient, did not carry the ball forward, did not flash the defender, and directly wanted to transfer directly to the No. 23, but unfortunately the ball was directly blocked by the defender. There was a problem with Wu Lei's judgment on this ball, there were two defenders on the passing line, and the ball was difficult to pass directly through with one foot. Wu Lei's footwork was also not used correctly, and the ball did not start. Wu Lei might as well buckle to the left and suddenly seek the cooperation of the two teammates on the left side.
No. 91'52'' No. 7 Oscar Melendo took the ball in the right front, a left-foot arc, the ball leader directly found Wu Lei in the middle of the penalty area, Wu Lei followed the trend and hit the goal with his right foot, blocked by the opposing defender out of the bottom line, and got a foot ball for the team.

No. 43 '39'' was no. 27 Luis López on the left side, Wu Lei was scrambling for the top, and was used by defenders to resist, and the referee did not award a penalty for the second time, but this ball was very reluctant if it was awarded a penalty.
The 45th', No. 8 Rosales in the right side of the midfield left foot passed a beautiful straight ball, the ball through 4 defenders, Wu Lei's running position just happened to form a tacit understanding with Rosales's pass, Wu Lei received the ball straight into the box and flashed a defensive left foot goal, this shot is very similar to Wu Lei's first goal in the Chinese Super League, but unfortunately it was blocked by the defender to win a corner for the team.
In the 48th '08''', the team's main centre-back No. 15 David Lopez directly found Wu Lei in the front of the penalty area with a long pass in the backfield, Wu Lei received a teammate's pass and directly wanted to pick up No. 7 Iglesias, but did not pass it, bounced back and assisted the No. 10 Dudel behind him, Andder's long-range shot was saved by the goalkeeper.

62'58'' Dadel found Wu Lei in the left front of the small penalty area on the right side of the penalty area, a foot of the ball directly found Wu Lei, Wu Lei barb adjustment just happened to touch the defender's arm, should be a handball, but the referee ruled offside first. Camera replay, Wu Lei is indeed offside a little bit, Wu Lei has three offsides in this game, Wu Lei should pay attention not to waste the pass of his teammates because of offside!
66'54'' Wu Lei received no. 10 Dudel's direct plug in front of the left side of the big penalty area, Wu Lei received the ball directly by the opposing player's back and flipped to the ground, and Wu Lei won a free kick for the team on the edge of the penalty area.
68 '58'' ushered in the first real highlight moment of Wulei La Liga, Wu Lei received a high-altitude ball from his teammate from the top of the back line on the right side of the penalty area, turned around, left foot plucked the ball to the right from the gap between the two people to force the card position to overtake, the leading defender burst into the penalty area, at the moment of the goal, the opponent's No. 20 right-back Vázquez kicked Behind Wu Lei to Wu Lei's ankle, and Wu Lei fell down in the small penalty area for the third time.

In the total 81 minutes of stoppage time in the two games, Wu Lei touched the ball 32 times, including more than 10 threatening passes, and players in different positions of the team were almost all doing the ball for Wu Lei except for the goalkeeper. Except for veteran Garcia, everyone Wu Lei has passed the ball, especially the Espanyol core of the frontcourt No. 14 Melendo and No. 10 Dudel, who have repeatedly delivered shells to Wu Lei. Moreover, you can see that the quality of the Spaniards' passes is very high, they are all in place, and many of them are not passing feet, but the ball leader, which complements Wu Lei's running position! I believe that After watching these two matches, Oscar dos Santos Nboabba Junio worries that Wu Lei has no one to pass for him should also be dispelled! Now that Wu Lei has many "new Oscars" passing for Wu Lei, there is every reason to believe that Wu Lei's trip to Espanyol will be full of rewards! Let's wait for the moment when Wu Lei scores!
