【Media Judging Panel Comments】
Commentator Li Yan: Wu Lei continued his good form and game efficiency in July. Although the number of goals has slightly decreased, his tactical value in the team’s attacking group has become more prominent. His off-the-ball movement still creates scoring opportunities for himself and effectively suppresses the opponent’s defense. At the same time, his effective running creates more space and opportunities for his teammates. Although his absolute ball possession time is not long, considering the weather and age factors, it is not easy to play concisely, energy-efficiently, and effectively. The number of assists also reflects Wu Lei’s versatility. Assists require players to control the pass and have a good sense of space. The energy-efficient Wu Lei is more effective, and his versatile performance has greater team value.
