In the past, if someone on the internet had labeled Wang Dalei as a "waterboy", they would have invoked it. However, in the recent match against Japan, he conceded seven goals in a row, a sluggish performance that dimmed his former glory. Even so, Ivan still had faith in him. Unfortunately for him, he allowed another four goals in this match. It's a shame to lose, but what's even more heartbreaking are the mistakes that shouldn't have been made. So, will Wang Dalei still be able to defend his country's door?
Sports commentator Huang Qiang said, "I have paid some attention to this game. The performance of Shandong Taishan's players was not satisfactory, and this victory does not prove that they are a strong team. Their performance is especially obvious when they play against weaker teams. It exposed the inadequacy of their daily training, especially Wang Dalei. He made consecutive mistakes that shouldn't have been there, and his mentality seems to be in trouble. The four goals conceded were closely related to him. If China's goalkeeper replaces him, some even fear that he will stay in the national team due to injury concerns. Perhaps Ivan, after witnessing his performance, will also ponder: is he still capable of guarding his country's goal? Many voices have called for an immediate replacement of the goalkeeper. After all, how does it benefit the team to leave such a shadow?
