Fox in the Penalty Area

Many South China Tigers fans and neutral fans believed that there should be no difference between the rest of the game and the first half.

Although Flash Star used the first few minutes of the second half to launch a surprise attack on the South China Tigers' goal, and really threatened the South China Tigers' goal.

But that was just a flash of inspiration, or to put it more bluntly, a "flash in the pan."

The game will still develop according to the original established route. That is, the more powerful South China Tigers will use their strong overall strength to gradually take the initiative in the game.

What stood in front of Shan Xing was not as simple as a wall, but a mountain.

It is not possible to break through by hitting it twice with an iron pickaxe.

"One thing to say, Flash Star's performance in this game can actually be described as 'brave'. He is a very admirable opponent. As a newly promoted horse, it is amazing to have such a performance against our South China Tigers. I admire them...I think based on their performance in this Super Bowl, the Flash Stars should be able to successfully avoid relegation this season."

"The biggest gap between Shining Star and the South China Tigers is the lack of stability. They can play a good attack on the spur of the moment, but they can't maintain this state consistently. But there is no way, who is the young man in the Shining Star formation Most of them? Young players have advantages and disadvantages. Relying on the momentum brought by young players, they won the championship in the Chinese League One, and even unexpectedly defeated Dashun Golden Arrow in the FA Cup final. Good. But when it comes to the more competitive Chinese Super League, the instability brought about by youth may be a great disadvantage... Fortunately, they still have Qin Lin in the team. As the saying goes, "An old family is like a treasure"... ..."

"It's a pity that Flash Star failed to score in two consecutive attacks. I feel sorry for them. After all, they may have missed the best chance of the game. When Hu Lai scored a header, My heart almost popped out, I thought I was going to lose the ball. Fortunately, we have Lin Zhiyuan! It's so dangerous..."

Yan Yan, who had already returned to school, was sitting with his classmates in the bar where they often went to watch the game, watching the live broadcast of the Super Bowl.

But at this moment, he didn't pay attention to the game itself, but frowned at his mobile phone screen.

The above are all discussion posts about the game on the "Goal" website. Some people are clearly praising and praising Shining Star, and some people are also justified and stick to neutrality.

But why does Yan Yan feel tightness in his chest the more he looks at it?

Because what they said was right, the development of the game was predicted by them, and I couldn't refute it, but I was unwilling to accept this reality...

"If the last goal is a small loss,

I think this result is perfectly acceptable..."

At this moment, he heard the discussion of his classmates coming from around him.

"Yeah, against the South China Tigers, losing only one goal is already pretty good. Don't be too harsh on them..."

"The league is still the main thing. The Super Cup is a warm-up for the league... Flash Star can play so tenaciously against the South China Tigers. If they meet other teams that are not as good as the South China Tigers, wouldn't they have a great chance of winning? ?”

What they said was right and reasonable, but after Yan Yan heard it, he felt even more irritable.

It's just that it's not easy for him to vent his emotions in front of his classmates...

Yan Yan got up from his seat suddenly, turned around and walked out of the bar under everyone's surprised gazes.

"Hey, Yan Yan, haven't you watched it?"

Someone asked strangely, but Yan Yan didn't get an answer.

When Yan Yan came out of the bar and came to the side of the street, he took a deep breath facing the busy road.

Although he may have inhaled car fumes, he still found the cold air outside much more comfortable than the stale and stuffy air in the bar.

"Why don't you watch it?" A middle-aged uncle's voice sounded from the side.

"I feel a bit bored, come out to get some air." Yan Yan turned his head and glanced at the uncle, "Why don't you watch it, uncle?"

"Come out for a cigarette." The uncle took out a cigarette and handed it to Yan Yan, "One?"

"Thank you, I don't smoke, uncle." Yan Yan waved his hand.

"Good habit." The uncle put the cigarette in his mouth into his mouth, took out the lighter and lit it, and then took a deep breath, the cigarette butt sparkled and then went out.

The two of them didn't talk anymore, Yan Yan stared at the traffic on the road in front of him in a daze, and the uncle next to him was just smoking one after another, and there was no other sound except the sound of him breathing.

After a while like this, the uncle smoked the last cigarette, went out and threw the extinguished cigarette butt into the trash can on the side of the road, and came back and asked Yan Yan: "You are not afraid of missing any wonderful shots when you come out, such as Hu Lai Goal?"

"I don't think I'll miss anything. What it was when I came out, it's still what it was when I went back."

"Yo." The uncle heard the negativity in Yan Yan's tone, and asked curiously, "Where did that magic stick I knew go? Didn't you always believe in Hu Lai unconditionally and almost superstitiously? How come you don't have confidence now?" gone?"

"It's not that I don't have confidence in Hu Lai, uncle. I'm just not happy with the view that everyone thinks that Shining Star wins when it loses less. It's glorious to lose. Before the game is over, one and two start discussing that we lost the game What should I do next... Those neutral fans on the Internet said so, and the classmates around me also said the same, I didn't want to hear it, and I couldn't argue with them, so I just came out to get some air."

Hearing his words, the uncle smiled: "But to be honest, Yan Yan, they are the normal thoughts of normal people..."

"That's me, uncle. I'm a normal person's way of thinking: I'll be upset if I lose, and I'll be angry if I'm looked down upon. Even in terms of overall strength, we're not as good as the South China Tigers. But think about it, uncle. In the Football Association Cup, when we started to face the Chinese Super League team, was there any time when we were favored before the game, and the overall strength was higher than the Chinese Super League team? But who was the winner in the end? It was us."

Yan Yan pointed to his chest.

"I always think that the reason why Flash Star is becoming more and more popular now is not because the team's performance is good, but because we can always show that kind of...fearless spirit when facing strong opponents. It makes people excited , instead of accepting fate in advance. Even if you really want to comfort yourself, you should wait for the end of the game, we really lose. Now the game is not over, one by one..."

He shook his head, then sighed.

The middle-aged man looked at Yan Yan who was shaking his head and sighing, and muttered with a smile: "It's nice to be young..."

"Ah?" Yan Yan didn't hear clearly, "Uncle, what did you say?"

At this moment, they suddenly heard a loud shout coming from the bar!

The two looked at each other, turned around and rushed into the bar almost at the same time.

As soon as they entered the bar gate, they looked up at the projection screen.

On the projection screen hanging on the wall, Chen Xingyi, who was in the penalty area, shot the football towards the goal!

South China Tigers' goalkeeper Lin Zhiyuan fell to the ground and flipped the football with his fingertips...

The football spins on the turf towards the back of the goal.

Hu Lai, who followed up in the middle, wanted to grab some supplementary shots, but he just stretched out, but someone was faster than him!

Yao Huasheng shoveled at the football, risking an own goal, and rubbed the football before Hu Lai!

Football goes off the line...

"Wow! It's so dangerous!!" He Feng exclaimed again and again, "It's so dangerous! Yao Huasheng's rescue is very critical!"

The people in the bar also hugged their heads one after another and let out regretful yells.

The uncle was still standing there staring blankly at the projection screen, but Yan Yan had already jumped out, grabbed the nearest classmate and asked, "How did Chen Xingyi break in?"

"Lian... changed direction continuously and knocked Yu Daisong down! Then he entered the penalty area... What a pity! It was almost possible to tie the score!" At the end, this student also put his head in his hands and shouted .

"It's not a pity!" Yan Yan retorted loudly, "I can't get in this time, there will be a next time!"

The other party froze for a moment: "Next time? What next time?"

"Do you think this is Flash Star's best chance in this game?" Yan Yan pointed to the projection screen and asked him to see it, and he was also asking the other students present.

"Isn't it..." Some of the classmates asked back, but they stopped before they finished speaking. Obviously, the person who said that also realized the problem.

Yan Yan smiled: "The last time when Hu Lai's header was saved by Lin Zhiyuan, they said the same thing!"

He returned to his seat, pulled the chair away, sat down with a big horse, and looked up at the live broadcast of the game on the projection screen.

A cold wind poured in from the open bar door, which brought fresh air while bringing the chill, refreshing the spirits of those who felt a little stuffy in the closed bar.

※※※

In the stands of the Heping Stadium, the shouts were loud, and they were almost all caused by fans of Flash Star.

Although there was no goal in this attack, the Shining Star fans seemed to see hope. They kept shouting in the stands: "Shining Stars are rising! Shining Stars are rising! Shining Stars are rising!!"

Fans of Shining Star waved their banners and wrote: "A single spark can start a prairie fire!"

It echoes the banner of the South China Tiger.

Under the loud shouts, Lin Zhiyuan got up from the ground, he felt his heart beat a little faster - when he flicked the football just now, but found that Hu Lai was in the middle, he really felt nervous. Fortunately, captain Yao Huasheng came back in time to destroy the ball, otherwise he would have lost the ball...

Thinking about it now is scary.

But Lin Zhiyuan laughed, and he shouted at the figure of the captain: "Beautiful!"

Feeling my heart beating wildly, accompanied by joy-this is the fucking game I want to play!

Yao Huasheng did not have Lin Zhiyuan's thoughts. After he got up, he clapped his hands vigorously to remind his teammates: "Don't panic, keep the formation!"

Just now after Chen Xingyi knocked Yu Daisong down unexpectedly, the South China Tigers' defense reacted a little too aggressively, and most of them ran to defend Chen Xingyi, causing a loophole in the middle. If he hadn't stayed in the middle, maybe when Hu Lai made a follow-up shot, there wouldn't be a single player from the South China Tigers around him...

※※※

"It would be better if Chen Xingyi passed the ball directly to the middle..." Chen Mo, who had just held his head in regret for not scoring a goal in this attack, sighed.

Zhao Kangming shook his head: "No, this is also very good. Chen Xingyi's choice is no problem. Any striker in his position is fine if he only thinks about shooting."

Chen Mo also knew what Zhao Kangming wanted to emphasize, so he nodded: "Of course, I'm just a little bit sorry...but the performance of the players in the second half was different from the first half. The first half was the same..."

"They are more tenacious than we imagined." Zhao Kangming said looking at the South China tiger's restricted area.

※※※

Yao Huasheng broke the football out of the baseline, allowing Shining Star to get another corner kick.

When directing his teammates to pay attention to defense, he pointed at Hu Lai and shouted: "Keep an eye on him! Don't let him out of sight!"

Jiang Chuan of the team stood between Hu Lai and the goal, staring at the opponent.

Hu Lai was delighted when he saw this: "Brother, are you really 'staring' at me in a literal sense?"

"Stop talking nonsense, I won't let you run away this time!" Jiang Chuan snorted.

The last time he defended a corner kick, he let Hu Lai get away and almost lost the ball. If Lin Zhiyuan hadn't performed well, he might have become the team's sinner.

Hu Lai looked up and saw Zhang Qinghuan raised his hands, and said to Jiang Chuan, "Don't worry, brother, I won't run away this time."

Jiang Chuan was a little strange, but he didn't believe what Hu Lai said.

The whistle sounded, and Zhang Qinghuan kicked the football towards the goal.

Hu Lai really just stood on the spot and didn't run, but came directly to the dry land to pull the onions, and took off from the spot to compete for the top.

Jiang Chuan also jumped up. This kind of corner kick is very easy to defend, it's just a matter of body and jumping height.

But neither of them hit the ball. Because the football was pushed towards the goal by Wang Guangwei who rushed in from the outside!

"Wang Guangwei - taller! Ah! A little taller!"

The football hit by Wang Guangwei was slightly higher than the crossbar and flew out.

The South China Tigers fans behind the South China Tigers goal exclaimed with lingering fear when they saw this scene.

"call--!!"

After landing, Wang Guangwei held his head in his hands with regret when he saw the ball missed.

He has not forgotten his duty.

The flashing star's offensive has come to an end, and the South China Tigers have the ball next, and he is a central defender. Of course, this situation must be quickly settled.
