"I heard from the Internet that Hu Lai created a record that no one has ever done before..."

"Five goals in nine minutes?"

"yes!"

"It's really amazing. It's been three days since this happened, but there are still many people discussing it enthusiastically on the Internet..."

On the bus, the players of the Japanese Olympic team were still discussing Hu Lai. They were on their way from the hotel where they were staying to the quarterfinals.

At 4:30 p.m. later, they will meet their opponents in the quarter-finals, the second Uzbekistan Olympic team in Group A.

But everyone is talking about the Chinese Olympic team.

"It's a pity that we can't meet the Chinese team in the quarter-finals, unless they can reach the final..."

"What are you regretting, Morikawa? Even if we can meet the Chinese team, you can't defend Hu Lai anymore. You are now a midfielder!" The teammate yelled loudly.

This caused laughter from others in the car.

Amidst the laughter, Junpei Morikawa argued: "I just want to express my gratitude to Hu Sang personally, thanking him for giving me the jersey and encouraging me..."

"Speaking of this, I still can't understand how Hu Lai went to exchange jerseys for Morikawa..."

"Me too, me too, what exactly is Hu Lai looking for in Morikawa?"

"Maybe I think Morikawa is easy to bully? Ha!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Junpei Morikawa blushed and retorted loudly, "Hu Sang is a very gentle person! He just didn't want me to be beaten to the ground, and I didn't live up to his expectations!"

Just as he was talking, a hand was clasped on his head, making him shrink his neck subconsciously.

"Morikawa is right, otherwise you would not have appeared on this team." Team captain Sugiyama Tatsuya rubbed Morikawa Junpei's hair, and then said to the other players: "Okay, okay, don't start Morikawa’s joke. Don’t talk about the Chinese team, our opponent in this game is Uzbekistan.”

As soon as he said that, the laughter in the car stopped,

Everyone got serious.

Sato Koichi, the head coach of the Japanese Olympic team sitting at the front of the bus, said to the assistant coach with a smile: "Oh, ah, with Sugiyama here, it's really easy for me as the head coach..."

Just as the quarter-final battle between the Japanese team and Uzbekistan was in full swing, all the players of the Chinese team also arrived at the venue for their match against Palestine, the People’s Stadium in Jingyang City, the capital of Haining Province——Since qualifying for the group stage, China’s The team will no longer play games in Dashun.

They also watched the game live on TV in the locker room.

The second half has just begun, and the Japanese team has already led the Uzbekistan Olympic team 3:0.

Wang Guangwei suddenly pointed to a Japanese Olympic team player on the TV screen and said, "Hey, Hu Lai, isn't this the Japanese player you exchanged jerseys with?"

The Japanese player that appeared on it was none other than Junpei Morikawa.

"It seems to be him..." Hu Lai was a little uncertain.

"What does it look like? Look at his small body, who else could he be?" Wang Guangwei was impressed by this man because he knew why Hu Lai was going to exchange jerseys with the other party.

The teammates of the other Olympic teams also thought about it, and then they were even more surprised: "Isn't his body unable to handle Hu Lai? Why is he still the main force?"

"Because they don't play central defender anymore." Gao Ruimin pointed to the TV screen and said, "Didn't you see that his position on the court is... the midfielder?"

"I'm going...it's true!"

Everyone turned their attention to Hu Lai again.

"What do you see me doing?"

"Look at you, you forced him, Hu Lai, he changed from a central defender to a midfielder!"

Hu Lai frowned: "What else?"

"How is this guy playing in the back?" Someone asked curiously.

Wang Guangwei checked the information quickly, and then said: "Judging from the appearance record of the U23 Asian Cup, he should be the main midfielder of the Japanese Olympic team..."

Everyone turned their attention to Hu Lai again.

Wang Guangwei also looked at Hu Lai and said, "Hu Lai, you seem to have given away the jersey to encourage a strong opponent..."

Hu Lai spread his hands together: "None of my business!"

"Uzbekistan's central midfielder Lingenev is in trouble today..."

When the commentator said this, the Uzbekistan Olympic team player Eskar Lingenev, who was wearing the No. 10 jersey, was spreading his hands and complaining to the referee.

But his complaint was useless, and the referee did not call the Japanese No. 14 player next to him for a foul.

"Junpei Morikawa's marking of Lingenev is very good, making it almost difficult for Lingenev to get the ball in the open space. Morikawa Junpei's physical condition is not outstanding, but he has a tenacious fighting spirit and flexible response. It is really not good to play as a central defender. Too good. But after switching to playing as a defensive midfielder, he quickly made his mark, and now he has become the main midfielder of the Japanese Olympic team..."

From the first match of the Japanese Olympic team in this U23 Asian Cup, the commentator of CCTV introduced the relationship between this player and Hu Lai to the Chinese TV audience. So everyone knows what made Morikawa Junpei from a central defender who couldn't even play the game to the main midfielder of the Japanese Olympic team.

Whoever is telling the truth, everyone thinks it is quite miraculous.

Many people have seen Junpei Morikawa being completely defeated by Hu Lai in the East Asian Cup.

At that time, few people could have imagined that a year later, Junpei Morikawa would complete a magnificent transformation.

I have to say that this Japanese kid is a bit ruthless. Temporarily changing the position on the field, it only took a year to play it...

Soon the Uzbekistan Olympic team made substitution adjustments, and the main midfielder Eskar Lingenev, who performed poorly on the field, was replaced in advance.

Lingenev, who was off, sat on the bench seat, covering his face and crying.

He is definitely dissatisfied with his performance, and he also knows that Uzbekistan, which is three goals behind, is very likely to be eliminated and miss the Madrid Olympics.

Any capable teams and players who come to participate in the U23 Asian Cup, of course hope to qualify for the Olympic Games.

Now that dreams are beaten to pieces in front of me, how can it not make people feel sad?

Junpei Morikawa, who was on the court, naturally noticed Lingenev who was sitting on the sidelines covering his face and crying bitterly after the end of the court, and he was a little emotional.

Think back then, after I was replaced early in the East Asian Cup match, I was so ashamed and lost my composure, right?

He was almost knocked down, if Hu Lai hadn't taken the initiative to walk up to him after the game and handed him the jersey...

He took the jersey back without washing it, and directly framed it and hung it on the wall of his home.

After deciding to switch from a central defender to a defensive midfielder, he encountered many difficulties, not just as simple as moving his position forward a few meters. The requirements for the two positions are different, and the standards for testing players' abilities are also different. Coupled with the thinking mode formed by years of training as a central defender-he always observes the game from the perspective of a central defender and considers how to deal with it. This is different from the midfielder, which will make him make many mistakes in the early stage of changing to the midfielder.

These mistakes made his decision to switch to a defensive midfielder look like a gamble.

Some people have persuaded him that there is no need to do this. Even if he cannot become an excellent central defender, it is not bad to be a full-back.

Whenever he encountered difficulties, Junpei Morikawa would lock himself in his small bedroom, sit cross-legged on the floor, and stare at the Hu Lai jersey hanging on the wall.

During this process, confidence gradually took root and sprouted from the bottom of his heart, which gave him the courage to continue walking.

In this way, it only took him one year to complete the gorgeous transformation from an ordinary central defender to an excellent midfielder.

He was selected for the Japanese Olympic team again and became the main force of this team.

All of this stems from the person who came to find himself with the jersey.

Junpei Morikawa feels that he is lucky. If he hadn't met Hu Laisang, what his life would be like is completely unimaginable.

So he decided to go to Lingenev to exchange jerseys after the game, hoping to pass on hope and courage to this opponent.

Because it was given to him by Hulaisang attached to the jersey.

Seeing Lingenev sitting on the sidelines crying after being replaced, and the 0:3 score on the TV screen, the players of the Chinese team suddenly became a little speechless, and no one was in the mood to joke anymore.

The same opponent, just in the group stage, they can only draw with their opponents.

As a result, in the knockout stage, the Japanese team beat Uzbekistan 3:0 so easily...

Seeing this scene, Shi Wuyin's heart fell to the ground—although this was not intentionally arranged by him, it happened to be the result he wanted.

After defeating Qatar 7:1, coupled with the weak strength of the opponent Palestine in the quarter-finals, many Chinese players seem to have a blind self-confidence. .

Under such circumstances, seeing their opponents who made them uncomfortable in the group stage be beaten like this by the Japanese team can really wake up many people from the dream of blind self-confidence.

So he stood up, walked to the TV, and said to the players in the team: "Let me tell you that the Korean team in the East Asian Cup last year was not the strongest, and the Japanese team was not the strongest, so don't think that you won One East Asian Cup champion can do anything. Let’s play the next game against Palestine first. If you stop here, wouldn’t you be wasting those five goals of Hu Lai?”

After these words, everyone turned their attention to Hu Lai again.

Hu Lai has become accustomed to being the focus of everyone's attention today. Under everyone's gaze, he said very seriously: "Please actively respond to the call of the country, be diligent and thrifty, and waste is shameful."
