For the first time since the 2008 European Cup, C Lang was the first reserve in the last week of the World Cup or European Cup. He saw the team replaced him with Calorie Ramos and scored three consecutive goals. When he was substituted in the 73rd minute, the Portuguese army was already ahead of the Swiss team 5: 1. He only touched the ball 7 times on the field, including a free throw hit on the wall, and did not participate in stoppage time goal by Rafael Liao. After the match, he simply clapped his hands in the direction of the Portuguese fans and left the field first.
Portuguese coach Fernandez Santos expressed his dissatisfaction with C Lang’s negative attitude after being substituted in the last game before the match, but said today that the incident has been resolved and has nothing to do with the opponent’s defeat in this game, but he said that “some things still need to be placed”, implying that C Lang’s team’s role is different. As for why the 21-year-old Ramos was used, Santos said: “I think the players on the pitch are more mobile. C Lang is more often deployed in the penalty area and Kankalu will go around. He showed his ability today “He also said that the use of Darroch and Raphael Gurilu as full-backs in this battle does not mean that Zuojiansilu is not a good player.
C Lang still posted on the Internet to congratulate the team on their promotion, praising the team for their “talented, young and promising performance”. For the first time, he personally responded to rumors of joining the Saudi Arabian club Al-Nasha, clearly stating that “it wasn’t real.” He left Premier League club Manchester United after refusing to play as a reserve this season, and was sacked last month for criticizing the club’s management.
