The fact that Wang Lei has emerged as a star actually highlights the soundness of Portugal's youth training system, proving once again that the only way for a country to improve its soccer level is to firmly lay a good foundation, investing several years or even decades to build a youth training system and create a good soccer environment, in order to attract more and more children to soccer, and the potential of the geniuses who stand out from them will inevitably increase. In recent years, Portuguese soccer has seen an explosion of talent, almost all of the top giants have their own players, and often the absolute mainstay. Typical of this is Manchester City, where Ruben Dias and B-Square are both indispensable talents for the team, and are irreplaceable when they return to the Portuguese national team.
Seeing the booming situation of Portuguese soccer right now, older players like Crowe can actually retire in peace, as their age and physical condition can't withstand high-intensity matches, let alone winning major championships. To his credit, Ronaldo set an all-time record for older players. The numbers are pretty good after joining Saudi Arabia, but he's as naive as ever. A few days ago, during the "national derby" match between Riyadh's Victory and Riyadh Crescent, he was unable to tolerate his opponent's provocations and showed an elbow on the spot, which led to his being sent off with a straight red card. In recent years, similar actions have happened to Crowe many times.
