In recent times, the "Li Tie case" that has caused a stir in Chinese football has attracted attention from all walks of life. At the same time, major media have also been reporting on the latest developments in the case. At the same time, with the in-depth trial of the "Li Tie case", more and more people involved in the case were taken away for investigation, including players and senior executives of the Football Association. On the other hand, media personality Ran Xiongfei , who often broke the news about big football players in the first place, was also accused by Li Xuan of "making things up", and Li and Ran started to quarrel with each other. One wave after another has arisen, and now Li Xuan has publicly issued a letter criticizing and Dong Lu.

On January 27, 2023, Li Xuan commented on Dong Lu's previous remarks: " Li Tie is Yue Fei , Lu'er, insult the national hero, you should go and kneel next to Qin Hui!" Li Xuan's comments mainly focused on a collection of remarks made by Dong Lu in the video released during the top 12 competition. In the video, Dong Lu supported Li Tie very much, and even said that Li Tie could stand up proudly, and praised him with Yue Fei. Being able to use the national hero Yue Fei to describe Li Tie shows how much Dong Lu admires Tiezi.

In addition, at that time, Dong Lu also publicly sent WeChat messages to Li Tie such as "It's not easy" and "Looking forward to the future" despite pressure from the outside world. Later, when Li Tie was dismissed from get out of class, Dong Lu immediately stood up to defend the other party. Dong Lu believes that those ignorant "Internet fans" and the chaotic Chinese football cultural environment killed Li Tie. Not to mention these, Dong Lu feels that most fans don’t understand football, but Li Tie can stand up proudly. It can be seen that Dong Lu has special respect for Li Tie in every word, and he even does not hesitate to oppose the majority of fans.

Among other things, Dong Lu directly praised Li Tie as a standing Yue Fei. This comparison was obviously too exaggerated, so it also attracted heated discussion from the outside world. Since Li Tie was imprisoned, the "Li Tie case" has been a hot topic of concern to the outside world. At the same time, Dong Lu's "passionate and impassioned" remarks directly aroused the ridicule of media personality Li Xuan. Li Xuan said very rudely that Dong Lu was simply insulting the national hero, and even yelled, "Go and kneel next to Qin Hui." It can be seen that Li Xuan had a mocking and negative attitude towards Dong Lu's praise of Li Tie.

During the 2022 World Cup preliminaries, after Lippi resigned, Li Tie took over the national football team and led the team to continue to compete in the World Cup. At the beginning, Li Tie led the national football team to defeat the Maldives, Philippines, Guam and other weak teams, and successfully entered the top 12. But later in the top 12 stage, the national football team lost its former pride when facing strong players such as Japan, Australia, Oman, Saudi , and it was almost lonely. At that time, the outside world criticized Li Tie's tactics and the playing time of naturalized players the most. During that time, Dong Lu tried his best to protect Tiezi and fully demonstrated his "railway love".

However, since Li Tie was "imprisoned", boss Dong Lu no longer supports Tie Zi and will avoid talking about it even if he publishes articles. This time Li Xuan also ridiculed Dong Lu's remarks. It is worth mentioning that after Li Tie got out of class, Li Xiaopeng boss took over, and the national football team did not perform well. Instead, they were humiliated by Vietnam, suffered a blow from Japan, and made jokes about hiding the ball and sea cucumber. Fortunately, the 2026 World Cup has been expanded. There are 8.5 places in the Asian region, and the national football team's chances of qualifying are greater than before. I hope the Chinese men’s football team can reach the 2026 World Cup and rise again.
