According to Tianjin Daily reporter Gu Ying, Xie Weijun unfortunately suffered an elbow strike in yesterday's game and suffered a comminuted fracture of his nose. After returning to Tianjin, he decisively chose to suspend the surgical reset, and go all out to prepare for the upcoming task of the national team.
Gu Ying mentioned in his report that Xie Weijun arrived in Tianjin today with a serious nasal fracture and then went to the hospital for a detailed examination. With the Chinese men's soccer team scheduled to gather in Shenzhen on Nov. 9 to prepare for two key group matches in the upcoming World Cup Asian qualifying tournament this month and depart for Thailand on Nov. 14, the announcement of the national team roster is just around the corner. To this end, the national soccer team has had in-depth communication with the Jinmen Tiger Club and Xie Weijun himself regarding his injury. After comprehensive consideration, Xie Weijun has made the decision to pause his reset surgery to ensure that he can fully participate in the national team's training and matches. Gu Ying further revealed that Xie Weijun also underwent 3D imaging of his protective mask this afternoon. If he succeeds in being selected for the national team, in the capacity of "Mask Brother", he will surely become a bright landscape in the team.
