The Biggest Regret in Shao Jiayi's China National Team Squad: 25-Year-Old 'Chinese Super League Interception King' Lv Zhuoyi Misses Out Again

With the release of the latest China national team squad, promising young players such as Zhao Songyuan, Bunyamin and Wang Gengrui have all been selected, bringing plenty of excitement. However, the squad also includes some notable omissions. Among them, the most surprising is that Dalian Yingbo's Lv Zhuoyi was not selected, which is regarded as the biggest mistake. Through the following three aspects, it can be seen that Lv Zhuoyi fully deserves the status of a national team player.

First, the 25-year-old Lv Zhuoyi has been outstanding this season. He has contributed 2 goals and 1 assist, while leading the Chinese Super League interception chart by a wide margin with 48 interceptions. In particular, he set a record of six interceptions in a single match against Shenzhen Peng City. Last season, he was named the Chinese Super League interception leader. He has demonstrated excellent defensive and attacking abilities for two consecutive seasons, and ranked second in the tackle chart last season before breaking into the top five this season. Should the national team give him more attention and opportunities?

Second, Dalian Yingbo's results this season have also been impressive, currently sitting second in the Chinese Super League standings, which is closely related to the outstanding performances of the team's domestic players. Lv Zhuoyi gives his all in almost every match, making him a true 'Chinese Super League ironman' and the player with the most playing time in the team. His exceptional physical condition fits Shao Jiayi's selection criteria and deserves more attention.

Finally, Lv Zhuoyi has a very strong desire to represent the national team. In a previous interview, he said that his biggest dream was to help China qualify for the World Cup. In addition, he hopes to play abroad in Spain in the future, showing the ambition and pursuit of a young player. Therefore, he should receive more opportunities to prove himself.

This time, Dalian Yingbo had only 19-year-old Yang Mingrui successfully selected for the China national team, while 21-year-old Mao Weijie was chosen for Antonio's China U23 national team. As the second-ranked team in the Chinese Super League, having only two players selected for the two national squads appears quite limited. In particular, Lv Zhuoyi's failure to make the squad is undoubtedly the biggest regret of this selection.
