At the Abu Dhabi Stadium, the Chinese team ushered in its second opponent in the group stage, the Philippines.

As expected, Luo Wu sat on the bench and did not enter the starting lineup. It seemed that he was in a good mood and had been chatting with Zhang Yuning next to him. Zhang Yuning did not start the game today, and Gao Lin still started. It seems that training is

Training and competition are competitions, not that you have to follow the training schedule.

Nearly 20,000 fans came to the scene to watch this game. This was due to Luo Wu’s appeal. Everyone wanted to watch Luo Wu play. There were not so many fans in other games, such as the South Korean team playing Kyrgyzstan just now.

Stan's game only had over 2,000 people in attendance, which was a huge difference.

But the fans in the stands were very disappointed because Luo Wu did not start.

"Didn't we come to see Luo Wu? We came to see Luo Wu, but he was sitting on the bench, and Lippi was really the same. Can't he be allowed to start? Although he is playing for a rookie Philippines, but

We want to see a goal scored."

"It's okay to send him to play for half an hour in the second half. Let's let him score a few goals. Son Heung-min scored a hat trick in the last game. He has already scored 9 goals, while Er Luowu only scored 7. This

Aren’t we about to fall behind?”

"I don't know what Luo Wu is thinking. Are he really not worried at all? Do he really want Son Heung-min to rush first? What if there is only one goal missing in the end and he will vomit blood."

Anyway, the fans don't understand. Whether they are Chinese fans or UAE fans, everyone comes here with this mentality, they just want to watch Luo Wu play.

With the whistle blowing, the game officially started. The Chinese team's starting lineup today has changed a lot compared to the first game, especially in the midfield and frontcourt. Xu Xin and Wei Shihao both got the chance to start.

At the beginning of the game, the Chinese team suppressed the Philippines in the half court and bombarded them wildly. The first one to get the chance to score was Voure. The Spanish forward was very active in his movement. In the 3rd minute, he was on the right.

After receiving a long pass from Xu Xin, it was a pity that he stopped the ball too wide and directly passed the ball to the goalkeeper.

This is an old problem. The basic skills are still not solid enough. The fans enjoyed it and only made a few complaints.

Three minutes later, it was Wu Xi's turn to send him a diagonal pass. As a result, Wu Lei did not stop the ball this time, but as soon as he stopped the ball, a Filipino player knocked him away.

Missed second chance.

This means that his body is not good either.

Although he got a chance to set the ball in the frontcourt, Wu Xi's shot went too far.

Wu Lei actually has a lot of pressure on him because he is always compared with Luo Wu. Although it is unfair, fans are used to it. Why is Luo Wu so awesome but you are so good?

So living under such pressure, it's enough for him to perform normally.

After he wasted two excellent opportunities, the fans' reaction was normal. But when he missed the single shot in the 17th minute, the fans could no longer bear it.

Gao Lin protected the ball and turned around to give him a perfect single shot, but Luo Wu faced the goalkeeper and actually shot the ball wide of the goal?

This is really bad and it couldn't be worse.

Chinese fans shouted Luo Wu's name in the stands.

"Luowu!"

"Luowu!"

"We want to see Luo Wu score, we want to see Luo Wu score."

This is stimulating Luo Wu and telling Lippi.

Undoubtedly, this was a huge blow to Wu Lei.

It is estimated that Wu Lei on the court was already deeply troubled.

He used to be the first forward of the Chinese team, but now he is the second forward. Although his status has not changed much, the gap between first and second is still too big.

The more this happens, the more serious the problem is. In the 26th minute, Wu Lei and Wei Shihao exchanged positions. This time he received Wu Xi's through ball and formed a single shot on the left side of the penalty area. This time his shot did not have any

The problem was that he hit the ball directly into the lower right corner of the goal, but the ball was saved by the Philippine goalkeeper.

He failed to score a goal in 4 consecutive shots.

This is too sad.

Gao Lin stood up at the critical moment. In the 29th minute, he received Wei Shihao's breakthrough pass and smashed the ball into the Philippine goal with his head. The Chinese team finally took the lead.

1:0, the Chinese fans finally calmed down temporarily. After all, they were ahead. But think about it again, they won the first game 10:3 against Kyrgyzstan, and the first half of the game was almost over, and they only took the lead by one goal. Then

I feel uncomfortable again.

The big camera of the live broadcast was frequently shown to Luo Wu, but Luo Wu was as quiet as a scarecrow. He didn't seem to pay attention to the situation on the field, but secretly took out his mobile phone to play. Is this his privilege? He was playing football

Can I play with my mobile phone while playing football?

At the end of the first half, the Chinese team only led the Philippines 1:0, which was similar to the Korean team's game. There was only thunder but no rain, and only flowers and no fruits.

After the game ended again, Chinese fans hoped that Lippi could replace Luo Wu, but he was not seen among the players warming up on the sidelines of the court, but Zhang Yuning was warming up.

This means that Zhang Yuning may come on as a substitute. As for Luo Wu, he must warm up first.

Wu Lei's mentality continued to be affected. In the 56th minute, Wei Shihao made continuous breakthroughs on the left and cut into the left side of the Philippine penalty area. Then he passed an inverted triangle back to Wu Lei. Wu Lei made too many adjustments and finally almost reached the point.

The ball was staggered and he completed a push shot, but the ball was saved.

The Chinese fans couldn't bear it anymore and simply shouted: "Go down with Wu Lei, go down with Wu Lei, go down with Wu Lei!"

The Chinese fans really didn't give him any face and directly shouted for Wu Lei to be dismissed.

If this were a few years ago, Wu Lei would have been China's frontcourt anchor. He was the best forward the Chinese team could have.

Maybe people's hearts can change, and they have forgotten Wu Lei's Hummer contribution to the Chinese team.

I still remember that this scene was in 1997. At that time, Chinese football legend Li Tie also received such courtesy. When playing in the top 10, Li Tie performed too poorly and was shouted off by them.

But what's the point? Lippi, the head coach of the Chinese team, can't understand Chinese? No matter what the fans are shouting, he pretends that he can't hear it.

But the translator came over and whispered a few words into his ear, probably telling him the situation at the scene.

Lippi's brows furrowed and he signaled for a quick substitution. But he was replaced not by Wu Lei but by Gao Lin, who performed well. Gao Lin finally scored a goal, but was substituted again in the second half, and the one who came up was

Zhang Yuning.

This shocked the Chinese fans in the stands, and even the UAE fans were unhappy. What was changed?

Where is Luo Wu?

Luo Wu is what they want to see.

"Is Wu Lei Lippi's illegitimate son? He played like this without subbing him. Gao Lin even scored in the first half. If it hadn't been for him, the score would have been 0:0. It's really incomprehensible."

"Isn't it? Voure is simply Manchester City's Sterling. He plays happy football and can't shoot no matter how hard he shoots. I don't think he will score a goal today."

However, after Zhang Yuning came up, he also scored a goal soon. Wei Shihao's cross from the left found Zhang Yuning. Zhang Yuning flicked the ball in the air and pushed the ball into the upper right corner of the goal to expand the score to 2:0.

This score basically puts China in an invincible position.

With a two-goal lead, Lippi would be even more unlikely to let Luo Wu play, so he might as well continue playing like this.

The Philippines didn't play hard, they also tried to attack, but they were basically blocked in the midfield.

The Chinese team also had many shooting opportunities. In the 71st minute, Wu Xi almost knocked on the door of the Philippines with a cold shot near the penalty area, but the ball slightly missed the right post.

Five minutes later, Wu Lei once again got a chance to hit the goal. This time, Xu Xin passed the ball from the edge of the penalty area. Wu Lei moved forward very timely, but he still missed the ball.

Lippi couldn't stand it anymore and finally replaced Wu Lei.

But the one who came up was Yang Liyu.

Wu Lei, who performed poorly, kept his head hanging down when he came off the field, not even daring to raise his head. The fans kept booing him.

I wonder if the shadow in his heart will always weigh on him after this game.

Yang Liyu did not disappoint after he came up. Zhang Yuming's header gave him the ball, and he sent the ball directly into the lower left corner of the goal with his left foot, ultimately helping the Chinese team gain a 4:0 lead.

What did Wu Lei think at this time? It was really a twist of fate.

At the end of the game, the Chinese team defeated the Philippines 4:0, and Luo Wu did not play for a minute.

The Chinese team continues to rank first with its goal difference advantage.

What Luo Wu didn't expect was that he could become the headlines of major media even if he didn't play in the game. Because the media made a comparison and found that Chinese games with Luo Wu and without Luo Wu were completely different things.

In games with Luo Wu, the offensive power is No. 1 in Asia, but without Luo Wu, the Chinese team is a second-rate team in Asia.

Wu Leike was scolded miserably. He started the game for 85 minutes and won a total of five great opportunities, but he did not kick a single goal. The Chinese media were all criticizing him, and Chinese fans were also criticizing him on major apps.

He was scolded inside.

It seems that it will be too difficult for Wu Lei to start in the future.

There are only two kinds of news on the Internet, one is praising Luo Wu and the other is criticizing Wu Lei. Luo Wu has also read a lot of news and is really worried about Wu Lei.

If he keeps scolding like this, will Wu Lei still have confidence?

At the training ground the next day, Luo Wu comforted Wu Lei.

The two of them chatted for a long time at the other end of the court.

"The news is cruel. Brother Lei Zi, are you okay? I've seen it and can't imagine how much pressure you are feeling now."

"But brother Lei Zi, is there something wrong with your confidence? I always feel that you are not confident when you take the ball and shoot. Are you always worried about not being able to shoot? I think the more you worry about this problem, the more worried you will be.

fear."

"Don't think about anything when you shoot. Just find an angle and shoot. It doesn't matter whether it goes in or not. If you think too much, the more you hesitate and make too many adjustments, the more likely it is that problems will occur."
