The sports event of the year was undoubtedly the year-end soccer event in Qatar - the
International Cup
. However, it is regrettable that
national soccer team
The absence of the team became the center of attention. What's even more interesting is that numerous Spanish media outlets have misrepresented Spain's matchup with Japan when predicting the
Spaniard
a forward (sports)
Wu Lei (1979-), Chinese footballer
The news that he will be wearing the Japanese uniform. Is this Wu Lei quietly naturalized in Japan? However, this is obviously a "misunderstanding", the Japanese media clarified in time, pointing out that Wu Lei is still a player of the Chinese team.
As a matter of fact, when the Japanese media paid attention to the reports of the Spanish media, they found that many of the Spanish media had made such a low-level mistake. They mistakenly referred to the players who played for
Spaniard
Chinese national team forward
Wu Lei (1979-), Chinese footballer
Reported as a member of the Japanese team. Apparently, in the eyes of the Spanish media, knowledge of Japanese players is limited to Kubo Kenyoung, with little attention paid to other players. Therefore, instead of being a breaking news, this report became a laughing stock.
Of course, we can understand why the Spanish media would get Wu Lei's nationality wrong. After all, in the eyes of the Spanish media, although the Japanese team is a strong team in Asia, but compared with them is still not enough weight. It is no wonder that the Japanese media is angry, that the Japanese team was "belittled" by the Spanish media. Moreover, the Spanish media seems to lack interest in the Spanish footballer Wu Lei, otherwise they would not even get his nationality wrong, which also makes Wu Lei feel "slighted".
The Japanese and Spanish teams are vastly outclassed, but Japanese soccer has been improving and may be able to surprise the international powerhouses. After all, Japan only lost to Belgium in the last International Cup. Therefore, it seems inaccurate to say that Japan has no chance at all when it enters the Group of Death in the International Cup.
According to the schedule, Japan's group with Spain also includes the mighty Germany and the winner of Costa Rica and New Zealand.
