Xinhua News Agency, Tianjin, October 6 (Reporter Zhang Zewei) the Chinese Football Association issued a notice on the 6th to recruit Tianjin Quanjian team player Zhang Xiuwei to enter the men’s national team and prepare for the 2019 Asian Cup finals. This is the first time that Zhang Xiuwei has been selected as the national football team since he returned in the middle of this year.
“Hearing this news, I am very happy and excited. I will learn more and try my best to show myself and bring help to the team.” Zhang Xiuwei said.
As a leader in the same age group, Zhang Xiuwei has good technology, reasonable scheduling ability and active fighting style, which is exactly the fresh blood needed by the National Football midfield. In the 25th round of the Chinese Super League just passed, although the Tianjin Quanjian team, who was short of major generals, lost to Shandong Luneng at 2:3 away, Zhang Xiuwei, who was behind the post, performed well, not only did he connect inpre-market, but his “workaholic” style led the whole team.

Since Zhang Xiuwei returned, he has become more mature both on and off the court. “Life may encounter all kinds of problems and difficulties. There are times when it goes well and there are times when it doesn’t go well, but as long as you keep your feet on the ground and always keep a humble and peaceful attitude, it will be different from before.” He said.
“In my lowest days, the national team was like a beacon in the distance, pointing out the direction for me. Being able to play for the national team is the supreme honor and the biggest motivation for me to play football.” Zhang Xiuwei said that he would try his best to look forward, prove himself on the court, and live up to the rare opportunities and expectations of the fans.
