On the evening of February 22, Beijing time, Chinese national youth star Wang Yudong posted on social media to clarify the rumors of grabbing a penalty with Liu Chengyu. Wang Yudong bluntly said that Liu Chengyu was the first penalty taker in the team, and the two did not quarrel over grabbing a penalty. I hope that everyone can give more encouragement to the national youth in the future.
Wang Yudong wrote emotionally: "Thank you very much for supporting our Chinese national youth team, and thank you to the fans who were there, I believe that we have also seen our performance, the penalty kick in this game is not our quarrel, this kind of thing cannot happen to our national youth teammates." ”
"Liu Chengyu is the first penalty taker in the team, everyone will have penalties that do not score and when the state is not good, I hope everyone encourages us more! Let's fight together for the five-star red flag on our chests, we are the best Chinese U20 men's football team. ”
In the just-concluded U20 Asian Cup 1/4 finals, the Chinese national youth lost 0-1 to Saudi Arabia and missed the World Youth Championship again, and it has been 20 years since the event.
In the game, Wang Yudong created a threat on the wing many times, and created a valuable penalty opportunity in the second half of the game, but teammate Liu Chengyu missed the penalty, and the national youth was finally killed by Saudi Arabia in stoppage time, and lost a good game.
The live broadcast camera once showed that before Liu Chengyu took the penalty, Wang Yudong seemed to communicate something with him. This also aroused suspicion from the outside world, after all, Wang Yudong had taken the penalty kick in the group stage, and if he could personally take the penalty he created this time, the result of the game might have been different.
