In the past years, China's national soccer team through thick and thin, the position of the center forward a few twists and turns, and finally ushered in the rise of Zhang Yuning, the 185cm tall, Dutch returnees of the strong, not only able to stabilize the defensive line, but also flexible turn, control the ball, and even assist the midfield to launch the attack, which is perfect. However, behind Zhang Yuning's strength, injuries have become a shadow that plagues him. In the youth team, it is not uncommon to see players quit due to injuries, and in the national team games, his absence has put the offensive end in a difficult situation, and Wu Lei's chances of breaking through have been greatly reduced as a result.
But just when Zhang Yuning was injured, a "local gun" broke out at a critical moment, easing the pressure on our front line. The 27-year-old "local gun" Barton, who used to play for Beijing Guoan, is now shining in Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, scoring goals like hemp. In the 13th round of the Chinese Super League (CSL), Tianjin Jinmen Tigers hosted Qingdao Hainiu and I thought they would win easily, but they conceded a goal first. Trailing 0-1, fans were worried that Jinmen Tigers' loss would continue after the break. At the crucial moment, Barton stepped up to the plate, equalizing the score with a penalty kick, and leading his team to a comeback in the second half, ultimately reversing their opponents' fortunes 3-2, with Barton's penalty kick becoming the turning point of the game. Prior to the league match, Barton had a strong showing in two warm-up matches for the national team, scoring against South Korea and becoming Jankovic's first goal scorer under his coaching when he scored his first career national soccer team goal shortly after coming on as a substitute in the away match against New Zealand. Barton's form has been off the charts this year, and his goals have always been the center of attention in both national brand tournaments and club matches. In this way, Zhang Yuning's road to recovery may be more assured, as with Barton around, scoring goals is not a concern!
