In the group stage of the Asian Cup in Qatar at the beginning of the year, the Chinese national team had the worst result in history without scoring a goal and was eliminated from the group stage. If it's the World Cup finals, we can understand! After all, the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan happened before. But in the Asian Cup, the fans can't understand and put up with it. Jankovic, the head coach of the national team at the time, also stepped down! The strength of our three opponents in the group stage was not very strong, but they just couldn't score! Therefore, many people criticize the head coach's lineup on the one hand, and on the other hand, accuse the players on the front line of the Chinese national football team for poor shooting!
Are Chinese players really bad at shooting? Not necessarily! In the just-concluded 17th round of the league, Shanghai Port and Zhejiang team faced off. In the end, with Wu Lei's hat trick, the Shanghai Port team defeated the Zhejiang team 3-1. Shanghai Port team has won 10 consecutive victories and leads the standings! And Wu Lei scored 19 goals in 17 games in the league, and this performance also made Wu Lei lead the scorer list. In addition, Wu Lei has also created new achievements, according to the statistics of the well-known football website "Transfer Market", Wu Lei ranks second in the list of scorers in the world's top league in 2024! The former sixth-largest league in the world has risen in face! Wu Lei unexpectedly beat Mbappe, Haaland, Ronaldo, Messi and other world superstars!
Of course, this list is just a record of appearances and goals. Because the level of each national league is different, the number of goals scored is different. For example, an unknown Indian player is ranked fourth, and he has scored 18 goals in five games, which is a terrifying statistic! So the only role of this list may be data!
But I have to admit that Wu Lei seems to have ushered in the second spring of his career this season! Last season, Wu Lei only scored 18 goals in the whole season. And this season, Wu Lei has scored 19 goals in 17 games. Both the efficiency and the number of goals are amazing! What's even more surprising is that Wu Lei has scored a lot of goals in the national team! In the second group stage of the World Cup Asian qualifiers, Wu Lei played 5 group games and scored 5 goals. Wu Lei is the top scorer in the Chinese national football team! In the upcoming round of 18, Wu Lei is still the sharp knife on the front line of the national team!
Of course, in addition to Wu Lei, there are several international players who are also in good shape! Wei Shihao, Alan and Zhang Yuning have all scored many times in the Chinese Super League. It's a pity that due to injuries recently, the state has obviously had a very big impact! The top 18 of the national football team is deep in the group of death, and if you want to successfully qualify for the World Cup, you also need players on the front line to perform better! Of course, I hope that the Chinese Football Association will continue to speed up the naturalization of players! There is not much time left for the Chinese national football team to prepare!
