China News Service Client, Beijing, April 11 (Reporter Xing Rui) After a long wait, Wu Lei finally broke the 666-day scoring drought in La Liga.
In the early morning of the 11th Beijing time, in the Spaniard's game against Celta, Wu Lei, who came off the bench, completed the lore in the 89th minute.
This precious goal helped the Spaniard take all three points.
After scoring the goal, Wu Lei's eyes were red.
For him, the past days have been burdened with too much pressure.
"Sad and happy", as Wu Lei said, no matter what the surrounding sounds, he has been silently insisting.
In this game, Wu Lei was named the best of the game.
In an interview with the media, he thanked the fans for their support along the way: "Whether it's good times or bad times, everyone has always supported me behind me, and I hope to give the team more help in the future."
The fans at the scene did not sting their applause, and Wu Lei's name resounded throughout the stadium.
At this moment, it seems to remind people of his high-profile moments at the beginning of his stay abroad.

Once upon a time, Wu Lei, who played in the European arena, was regarded by the fans as "the hope of the whole village".
At that time, he helped the team from the relegation zone all the way to the Europa League, scored twice in the King's Cup, and scored Barcelona's goal in the "Catalan Derby"...
A series of high-profile performances made Wu Lei regarded as the "savior" of Chinese football.
However, fans often overlook that as a player, Wu Lei has his own troubles, as well as the decline of state and career lows that all players cannot avoid.

In the second season of studying abroad, Wu Lei gradually lost his brilliance in the five star-studded leagues.
Looking back on the bumpy 2020, Wu Lei's experience is full of sadness and difficulty.
At the beginning of the year, the team suffered a losing streak, and then he was infected with the new crown, and then experienced the team's relegation...
In the year he played in the Second Division, Wu Lei was still unhappy.
He had to fight with injuries, and after his comeback, he couldn't find the feeling of breaking the goal, and he gradually lost his position as the main force in the team.
After the start of this season, even if the Spaniard returns to La Liga, Wu Lei has not been able to return to the starting lineup.
Even in many games, the fans could not see him.
Data map: In the third round of the Asian Top 12 World Preliminary Tournament that ended in the early morning of October 8, Beijing time, with Wu Lei's lore, the Chinese team narrowly defeated Vietnam 3:2.
In an extremely exciting way, the country won the first victory in the top 12 this year.

Among the thousands of troops studying abroad, only a few stood on the top of the pyramid, and most of the players were struggling in the mud.
They either experienced setbacks and slumped, or silently accumulated strength.
There is no doubt that Wu Lei belongs to the latter.
This lore is proof.
In the game against Celta, the final whistle was about to sound.
After Dadell intercepted the ball, he made an oblique pass to the right side of the penalty area. Wu Lei took the opportunity to shoot a strong shot, and the ball went into the net.
After scoring the goal, Wu Lei raised his arms and shouted, and the grievances and unwillingness that had been suppressed for a long time were vented at this moment.
After experiencing an extremely difficult hurdle in his career, Wu Lei ushered in the dawn of his own with a goal, and also brought a touch of warmth to Chinese football, which has been struggling for a long time in the cold winter.
Many times, the national football team always enters the public topic in an unpleasant way.
As "the hope of the whole village", Wu Lei responded with his own efforts.
There is no battle to become famous, and there is no God's blessing.
Years of diligence have become the foundation of Wu Lei's foothold in European football.
His existence is like a "stimulant" for Chinese football, and it also brings Chinese football a force that will never give up and face difficulties: change must start from oneself first.
As Wu Lei said: "It is not because there is hope that we persevere, but there is hope because of perseverance." (End)
