Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 15 The birth of a goal

Hu Lai exchanged 10,000 points for a lucky bracelet before the game. For him, the reason why this game is of great significance is not because it is his first professional game, but only from the record of professional games. He's already fucked up his father.

Rather, his performance in this game will directly affect whether he can get a chance to play in the future.

He doesn't know whether he can score goals when he plays, although Director Zhao said that he doesn't need to worry about improving goals and don't feel pressure.

But how could you really not care?

Obviously, as long as you can score goals in your debut game, then you can naturally play more games afterwards, otherwise you don't know when the next opportunity will come.

It's like a game, when you miss a chance to score, maybe you won't score in this game.

Isn't Lai Zekai a lesson from the past?

He said he almost scored in the first half, and he was right, that was the closest he came to scoring, when his shot brushed the far post and went wide.

If he can score this goal, even if he is replaced now, he will definitely not stare at Hu Lai's back with displeased eyes...

As a shooter who can only score goals, Hu Lai is very aware of how hard-won opportunities are. He cherishes them very much and never squanders them.

So in order to ensure that he can still get a chance to play in the next game, Hu Lai would rather use up 10,000 points and add a little luck to himself.

He doesn't use the lucky bracelet in every game, but he must use it in this first game.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but if this end is done well, the road ahead will naturally become wider and wider.

After Hu Lai came on the field, he replaced Lai Zekai. When the game restarted, he quickly entered the game.

Actively run, according to tactical requirements, retreat to respond, pass the football to teammates with better positions, and occasionally participate in defense, not only in the frontcourt to counter-rob, but also retreat to the penalty area to stand in the defensive position— ——After all, Flash Star has conceded the second fewest goals so far, and it doesn't just rely on the performance of four defenders and a goalkeeper.

Under such circumstances, it was almost ten minutes into the game, and he hadn't gotten a chance to shoot.

Lai Zekai saw this scene off the court,

I couldn't help but sneered—boy, do you think professional games are so easy to play? Do you think that if you can score goals in training, you can score goals in games?

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt relieved, leaned back on the back of the bench chair, crossed his legs, folded his hands around his chest, looking leisurely and ready to watch a play.

He remembered that the head coach Zhao Kangming had made some adjustments on the front line this season. He was also once adjusted to the bench, and various personnel combinations and formations were changed again and again. The result?

In the end, isn't he the only one who can cooperate with Murphy?

So he thought that this was just another futile attempt by Zhao Kangming.

After all, Hu Lai is a newcomer, and he failed to catch up with all the previous attempts...

※※※

Xie Lan put down his phone a long time ago, stopped recording, and focused on watching the game instead.

Although she doesn't quite understand, for example, every time Flashing hits the opponent's penalty area and fails to pass the football to Hu Lai, she will complain to the TV screen to herself: "Pass the ball, pass it to Hu Lai!" Lai!"

In her opinion, if Flash Star's players don't pass the ball to Hu Lai, she won't be able to see Hu Lai's wonderful performance. This is the most important thing, she doesn't care at all whether Shan Xing can win or not.

Now just seeing her son keep catching, passing, and running around, she doesn't know what to run for. She feels like a headless chicken. What's the point of running like this under the sun, other than wasting energy?

Unlike Xie Lan, Li Ziqiang, who watched the live broadcast of the game in the old house, paid more attention to these "meaningless" game details.

He saw that Hu Lai rarely let the football stay under his feet for a long time. If his back was facing the attacking direction, he would immediately pass the football horizontally or knock it back directly after receiving the ball. No.

If he is taking the ball in the attacking direction, he will not take the ball, but still choose to pass the football.

He will always pass the football, and then run the first time, either pulling the angle horizontally, or turning around and running forward. It's just that these runs of his don't necessarily lead to receiving the ball, because teammates don't always pass the football to him.

Li Ziqiang could see that this was different from when Hu Lai played in the school team for the first time, and no one passed the ball to him. The former was because Hu Lai did not win everyone's trust at that time, and some people hated him. He, that's why no one passed the ball to him.

In Flash Star, Hu Lai sometimes didn't catch the ball, but it was because it was inconvenient for his teammates to pass the football to him, or there was a better passing target than him. Obviously, although this kid has only been in the new team for a week and a half, he has already won the most basic trust of his teammates through his performance in training...

No matter how Hu Lai can perform in the end of this game, Li Ziqiang thinks this is a good sign.

Another point that Li Ziqiang is more concerned about is that through these details of the game, he can see the progress of Hu Lai during the year and a half since he left the school team.

Since Hu Lai went to the Poseidon youth team, he has never watched Hu Lai play football again. There are no live broadcasts, rebroadcasts, or video highlights of the Chinese Super League youth team games on TV or online.

He didn't know whether Hu Lai could keep up with the requirements of professional clubs after he went to the echelon of professional teams, whether he was really working hard in training, and how much progress he had made - when Hu Lai left, he once told him , His talent must pay more effort than others to manifest.

He wasn't quite sure whether Hu Lai had listened to his words, after all, when he was playing under him, he had always been "taken care of" by him. Li Ziqiang worried that Hu Lai's "obedience" was just because he had been staring at him, so he went to the Poseidon Club, which is a professional team. It is impossible for the coach to always stare at one person. Now, whether Hu Lai can still consciously and strictly demand himself, and whether he can still train seriously has become what Li Ziqiang cares most about.

After watching the ten-minute game, he came to a preliminary conclusion—in the past year and a half, Hu Lai did not waste his time and talent, and he really trained seriously. And his performance on the court is proof.

You must know that this is his first professional game, but his solid basic skills can be seen whether it is receiving or passing the ball.

It seems that Zhao Kangming really took good care of Hu Lai in the Poseidon youth training, and did special training for his technical characteristics.

When Hu Lai went to Poseidon, Li Ziqiang was actually a little worried. He was worried that the Poseidon youth team would play tricks on Hu Lai. Defensively proficient in everything.

That would destroy Hu Laisheng...

Li Ziqiang doesn't care whether Hu Lai can score in this game, but these details of the game make him particularly concerned.

In his opinion, Hu Lai is still young, and he has just joined the team, so he has plenty of time. Even if there is no goal in this game, it doesn't matter.

After all, how many people can score in their first career game?

Most people's first professional career game is not even worth looking back on. If they can perform well, they are successful.

Hu Lai saw Wang Guangwei taking the ball in the backcourt from the front. He didn't pass the ball to anyone, but after pretending to make a long pass, he suddenly rushed forward with the ball. After two steps, he passed the football diagonally to the retreating response George Waters.

Although Waters had his back to the attacking direction at this time, and the football was still in his second half, Hou Lai had already started to move forward. As soon as he moved, Kunyang City's central defender followed him and retreated.

And not only did he move forward, but another striker, Macaulay Murphy, also pressed forward, taking the Kunyang City defender and running back.

At this time, the football has been passed by Waters to the right back Zhang Hao who stepped in.

Players from Kunyang City came up to defend Zhang Hao, preventing him from continuing to dribble forward.

Zhang Hao passed the football to Qin Lin who came up to support him.

The space for Qin Lin to catch the ball was created by the pressure of Hu Lai and Murphy - because the two forwards of Flash Star ran forward and took away the defenders of Kunyang City. There is a not too big gap between the central midfielder and the central midfielder.

Seeing Qin Lin receiving the ball, two midfielders in Kunyang City immediately rushed towards him. After all, this is the most threatening player in the midfield of Shining Star. He may not be able to adapt to the team's requirements in the Super League, but playing There is still no pressure at all in the middle class...

Faced with the opponent's pressing, Qin Lin didn't take too much of the ball. He first protected the football, and then passed the ball back to meet his midfielder Ma Wenyi.

As soon as Ma Wen made a slight adjustment, he kicked a long diagonal pass, shifting the football to the left side of the court, and gave it to Liu Binwei, the left back who stepped in behind.

※※※

"Strong shot, beautiful transfer!" shouted the commentator of Anton Satellite TV in front of the TV.

In the TV screen, Liu Binwei received the ball and dribbled it into an assault, attracting the right back of Kunyang City to chase back desperately, and the two started a speed competition on the side.

At the same time, in the middle of the court, Hu Lai, Murphy and Qin Lin were also racing against the defenders of Kunyang City.

Three arrows were fired at the same time, towards the restricted area of ​​Kunyang city.

Among them, Murphy went straight to the front point, while Hu Lai rushed to the back point. Qin Lin was a few positions behind them, heading towards the top of the free throw arc at the front of the penalty area in Kunyang City.

The remaining Flash Star players press forward together according to the requirements in training, covering the space left by the attacking teammates.

In addition, Leng Jinyu didn't go forward to the opponent's penalty area, but changed direction and ran to Liu Binwei to meet him. If Liu Binwei can't get rid of the opponent's full-back, then he must be ready to go up to meet him.

However, Liu Binwei didn't mean to pass the football to Leng Jinyu. He accelerated the football forward, and after briefly throwing away half of his body, he caught up with the football and directly kicked the pass!

The football drew an arc and flew high to the gate of Kunyang City!

"Cross!"

The commentator let out a loud cry, followed by the guest commentator frowning.

"Tsk, it's high!"

It was indeed high. Under the close pressure of the opponent's full-back, Liu Binwei passed the ball a little too hard. As a result, Murphy, who was outflanking the front point, couldn't reach the ball--Murphy didn't take off at all, but just passed the ball. The following looked up and watched the football fly past him.

"Later..."

The Kunyang city central defender in front of the goal jumped up and wanted to kick the ball to clear the siege. After he jumped up, he got the football, but he didn't push the football out of the dangerous area, but just rubbed it.

Obviously he miscalculated the height of the ball...

Just such a rub, the football fell down suddenly, and it happened to land on Hu Lai who was behind the outflank!

Zhao Kangming on the coach bench reflexively raised half of his buttocks, leaned forward, and wanted to jump up, but his arm was grabbed by the assistant coach Chen Mo next to him. His tension can be felt in the movement of his grip.

Li Ziqiang in front of the TV was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was lifted high.

It was really unexpected that the ball was rubbed by the opponent's central defender. It seemed like an opportunity, but because of this accident, Hu Lai would be caught off guard...

He stared at the small figure on the TV screen, and he could only hope that the ball stop that Hu Lai had trained repeatedly could play an extraordinary role...

※※※

Hu Lai saw the football suddenly slipping off the head of the opponent's central defender, and he raised his right foot reflexively. His mind went blank, and he was completely unable to think effectively. Muscle memory and instinct drove his body.

The inner side of his right foot lightly cushioned the falling football, with moderate strength, and the timing was neither too fast nor too slow, just right.

The football hit the inside of his foot, and the downward trend suddenly slowed down. From the perspective of slow motion, it seemed that the football was frozen in the air at this second...

At the same time, Hu Lai opened his arms to keep his balance, took a step to the side with his left leg, turned his body sideways, raised his right leg again, and kicked the football!

In front of him is a half empty goal!

The opponent's goalkeeper is still on his way back from the previous point...

But he was too late!

The power of the shot is not great. In order to buy time, Hu Lai did not round his right leg to shoot. He kicked a very ordinary but standard push shot. The inside of his right foot accurately hit the position of one finger below the center of gravity of the football. The football exerts a forward force.

There was a very slight "bang".

Football flies towards the goal.

After crossing the white goal line, the Kunyang City goalkeeper's yellow-green glove pounced.

This time, Chen Mo failed to hold Zhao Kangming. After Lao Zhao shook his hands and broke free from him, he rushed out with all his teeth and claws. Chen Mo, who failed to hold him, followed closely behind and chased him. Zhao Kangming, but to hug and celebrate with him!

Flash Star's seventeenth goal of the season was born!
