Coach Ivankovic was relieved to see Wei Shihao's stunning play in a marquee clash of national honors. With captain Wu Lei unable to play due to injury, Ivan was faced with the tricky task of finding a replacement for him. Wei Shihao's sudden rise to prominence has finally relieved Ivankovic's urgent need.
Wei Shihao is expected to be the perfect replacement for Wu Lei in his absence, as long as he can continue his excellent performance into the match between the national soccer team and Thailand. Expect Wei Shihao to take over Wu Lei's mantle in the home match, prove his strength with goals, and help the team beat their opponents and advance to the Top 18. Ivankovic's trust in him cannot be betrayed.
