html In the first game of the 318 round, the Chinese team lost to Japan 0-7 and suffered a bad start. In this game, the national football coach Ivan sent two forwards Wu Lei and Zhang Yuning in the starting lineup. As a result, Zhang Yuning missed the only shot of the national football team, while Wu Lei was invisible throughout the game and did not even take a shot.

In the league, Wu Lei is in very hot form. He has scored 28 goals in the first 24 rounds of the Chinese Super League and also performed a hat trick in the Football Association Cup. Just before the match against the Japanese team, Wu Lei had just topped the 2024 world football scorer list of the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (iffhs) with 35 goals. On this list, there is also the name of Manchester City forward Harland .

However, after Wu Lei came to the national team, he suddenly seemed like a different person. In the match against Japan, Wu Lei started as the captain of the national football team. When the national football team fell behind 0-4, Wu Lei was replaced in the 61st minute. In this game, Wu Lei shot 0 times, touched the ball 15 times, and made 9 successful passes out of 12 times. Judging from the heat zone map, Wu Lei touched the ball at the kick-off point in the center circle the most times in this game.

Regarding the contrasting performance of Wu Lei in the club and the national team, the well-known commentator Dong Lu said: "Harland couldn't score the ball in the national football team today. Haaland couldn't score the ball in the national football team today. No one gave him a chance. Wu Lei passes the ball to him. There is no way. Wu Lei is not strong enough to do it alone. "

In the game against the Japanese team, although Ivan sent a double forward lineup, the national football team's midfield was almost lost. , the ball possession rate is only 20%. His teammates simply couldn't pass the key ball to Wu Lei, and Wu Lei, who is known for his running and finishing, was naturally unable to play his own characteristics. In the league, Wu Lei has top foreign players in the Chinese Super League such as Vargas and Oscar behind him to feed him. This is also the main reason why Wu Lei scores so many goals in the league.
