Recently, China's men's national soccer team announced its latest training list, and surprisingly, Shanghai Shenhua midfielder

Failed to make the cut. According to reporter Cheng Wenli, Dai Weijun understands this and believes that if he were the head coach, he wouldn't have chosen a player who didn't have many chances to play in the league.
Dai Weijun said in an interview, "If I were the national team manager, I wouldn't go for players who don't play much in the league. So I can't be selfish and think that I can make the national team in my current situation. I will do well and wait for my chance, I won't complain about losing my main role."
This season, Dai Weijun played 9 matches for Shanghai Shenhua in the Chinese Super League, but only made 1 start and did not contribute a goal or an assist. Although his individual ability and technical level are widely recognized, he failed to show more performance in this season due to limited playing time, and therefore lost the chance to be selected for the national team this time.
Dai Weijun's attitude is praiseworthy as he said he will continue to work hard to improve his game and wait for his chance to come. As a professional player, he showed a positive mental outlook and was not discouraged by the temporary loss.
Dai Weijun's defeat does not mean that his path to the national team is over. As long as he continues to work hard and show outstanding performance in the league, he still has the chance to return to the national team in the future. In the coming matches, Dai Weijun will have the chance to prove his strength and value through his performance.
