Fox in the Penalty Area

When Catalan right-back Calderon turned his attention to Di Kunzo, Irazusta did not stop, but continued to advance resolutely.

It was precisely because he saw his forward drive that Di Kunzo put the football straight through.

When Irazusta received the ball, Catalan United's French central defender Paul Fortune turned his head twice in a row and failed to find his target, but those watching the live TV saw it clearly:

When Fortune looked back towards the goal for the first time, Hou Lai flashed away from the goal, right in Fortune's blind spot.

Then Fortune turned his head in another direction, Hu Lai suddenly stopped and changed direction, dodging to the door. Appeared out of Fortune's field of vision again.

Meanwhile Irazusta passed the ball.

Hou Lai is just right on the football line.

The rest is too simple for a shooter of Hu Lai's level.

Catalan's midfielder Insua shoveled him and just knocked him a little bit, but before that, the football had already flown into the goal!

Changing direction and dodging twice in a row, this kind of action did not go through Hu Lai's brain at all, it had become his instinct.

The speed was very fast and there was no warning, so neither Paul Fortune nor the other Catalan players reacted and allowed Hou Lai to score.

Seeing Hou Lai's goal, the Catalan coach Jose Bernal on the sidelines sighed heavily.

He didn't expect that the Madrid Pirates, who were playing away from home, dared to attack as soon as they came up in the game, so Catalan was caught off guard and behaved very passively.

Bernal can only quickly let the team recover the defense, and first withstand the series of offensives of the Pirates at the beginning.

But now his plan fell through-the team didn't hold back, and let the Madrid Pirates score!

Less than ten minutes into the game, they conceded the ball, which made the Catalan United very passive...

Boos have already sounded in the stands, but I don’t know whether the boos are aimed at the Madrid Pirates or at the Catalan United—the Catalan United’s performance in these ten minutes is indeed not satisfactory. As the home team, they are almost Completely crushed and beaten by the Madrid Pirates, there was no way to fight back.

Now that the score is already behind, Cathay-Thailand has no other choice but to attack and try to equalize the score as soon as possible. Otherwise, the situation will become more and more unfavorable to them.

But when you attack, the space behind you...

Jose Bernal thought about it and decided to attack.

Because this is the home court of Cathay-Thailand, there is no reason for Cathay-Thailand to face aggressive opponents at their home court.

If this is an away game, then he doesn't mind at all continuing to shrink the defense after conceding the ball, so as to avoid conceding another goal in a short time...

When Hu Lai scored, Parotti and his coaches and colleagues rushed out of their seats, cheering and celebrating the goal.

Their tactical goals have been achieved-the opening attack, striving for the first goal, and taking the initiative on their own side!

[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, Mimi Reading, install the latest version. 】

But despite being happy, Parotti did not forget to remind his team: "If Catalan United wants to attack, then we will fight against them!"

It's fine to retreat to defend after leading by one goal, but it is not very wise to face Catalonia in this game.

That is tantamount to giving up possession and space on the court.

And in the original tactic, it was originally designed like this-to attack first and score first. After taking the lead, let the Catalan United attack in an all-round way. Catalan confrontation head-on.

You must know that the advantage of Cathay-Thai United lies in the midfield. But the Madrid Pirates dared to do this, on the one hand because of Carey's return, and on the other hand because the Catalan midfielder's control of the Catalan midfielder has declined after Gaspar Rosas's state declined this season. Not as good as before.

"The Pirates are ahead..."

The Madrid Pirates are paying attention to the game between the King and Sarria, and the same is true for the King.

They even care more about their rivals in the same city.

Because whether the King of Madrid can win the league championship depends on the results of the Pirates and Catalan United.

If the Pirates beat the Catalan United, even if the King beat Sarria with ten goals, it will not help.

Kings coach Roy Wei did not stop his coaches from paying attention to another game.

"What are Catalan United doing? Isn't that their home stadium!"

"It was Hu who scored the goal?"

"Well, it's him. The thirty-fourth goal in the league."

"It's terrible. The single-season scoring record in La Liga is 38 goals, right?"

...

Hearing such whispers, Roiwei couldn't help snorting: "Meli is also great, and he has scored more than 30 goals now. Considering this is his first season as the team's main attacker It’s even more remarkable to be able to perform like this.”

"Of course. In fact, even if Meli doesn't win the league Golden Boot this season, I believe he will win the honor next season..." assistant coach Gonzalez echoed.

Both the head coach and the assistant coach have said so, and the others are silent, so this topic will stop here.

Calm was restored in front of the coach's bench, and everyone turned their attention to the court. The King of Madrid is beating Sarria at home.

But Sarria played tenaciously.

Although they fell behind by one goal in the opening three minutes, they quickly stabilized their position. Even if the king bombarded their half court indiscriminately, it did not collapse. So far, I have not lost the ball again.

The silence on the bench didn't last long, and suddenly there was a burst of harsh boos at the Crown Stadium.

Amidst the boos, an exclamation came from the corner of the coach bench: "God! Hu scored again?!"

Roy Wei and Gonzalez turned their heads to look at the coach who exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

※※ ※

The boos of the Holy Family Stadium were loud, and the real-time score at this moment was displayed on the big screen of the stadium.

Eighteen minutes into the game, Cathay-Thailand fell behind by 0:0.

In the corner flag area below the big screen, Hu Lai jumped high and made his signature celebration.

When he landed, I don't know if it was an illusion, but the boos became louder.

But Hu Lai didn't care. He happily greeted the running teammates, opened his arms and hugged them.

"Hu Lai! Hu Lai! Beautiful!! An unexpected long-range shot! Hu Lai's shot completely penetrated the Catalan defense line! Still cut it with one foot! Hou Lai scored his third goal of the season Fifteen league goals, helping the Madrid Pirates lead the Catalan United : 0 away! And now it's only... 18 minutes!"

In front of the TV, Yan Yan, Chu Yifan and the others all jumped up from the sofa, chairs, and the floor, raising their arms and shouting.

"I'm fucking awesome!"

"Hu Lai is awesome!"

"Two goals! Fuck! It's only been less than twenty minutes! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!"

A group of people were crying and howling, not caring if they would disturb the neighbors or something... because when Hu Lai scored the first goal, they heard roars coming from all directions in the community-obviously everyone was screaming. Watching the game, even if you cheer loudly at this time, no one will come to your door!

Xie Lan laughed and danced in front of the TV, and clapped her hands vigorously.

He was still muttering: "Good job! Good job! That's it! Mellie gets one, you get two!"

Hu Lixin looked at his wife who looked like a crazy woman, and couldn't help laughing: "You..."

Xie Lan turned to stare at him: "What am I?"

Hu Lixin shook his head: "No, you are fine!"

"Hmph!" Xie Lan snorted, standing in front of the TV with his hands on his hips, like a proud hen.

"This is the perfect start!"

The assistant coach Valentine on the sidelines shouted excitedly.

When Hu Lai scored a goal in nine minutes, he thought it was a perfect start, but now it is the real perfect start!

After conceding the first goal, Catalan United pressed forward to attack, trying to use their home court advantage to suppress the Madrid Pirates and equalize the score as soon as possible.

But in this way, their defense line was vacant, but the Madrid Pirates seized the opportunity to make another victory.

Parotti's arrangement after scoring the first goal worked.

If he is only satisfied with a one-goal lead, or if he is worried about the attack power of Catalan United at home and chooses to let the team shrink back, then this second goal will definitely not be seen now.

While everyone around him was cheering for Hu Lai's double score, Parrotti kept calm. He grabbed Valentine and said to him: "When they finish celebrating, tell them to slow down next, don't It's against the Catalan United!"

Valentine froze for a moment and asked, "What if the Catalan United don't attack?"

"That's the same. Anyway, we are leading by two goals now. If we delay the time, it will be beneficial to us."

Parotti was cautious at this time. He was afraid that after the players went crazy, they would lose their minds on the court and be seized by the Catalan United...

A two-goal lead seems safe, but to put it bluntly, letting the opponent score one goal becomes a one-goal lead, and the opponent's morale is boosted, while one's own side is hit. Very unfavorable.

So it's okay to be steady at this time.

"The long-range shot from outside the penalty area was very sudden..."

After learning how Hu Lai scored the second goal, the coaches on the King's coaching staff fell into silence for a while.

There is no subtle coordination, nor is there any clever tactical arrangement.

That is, Hu Lai retreated out of the penalty area, received a pass from his teammate, and then took a cold shot before the defensive player completely blocked him.

The football is running towards the goal of Catalan United against the turf... There are legs inside and outside the penalty area. Catalan goalkeeper Cordero can't react in time, and this shot is really tricky. He can't do anything, although he made a save. , but can only watch the football enter the net...

Faced with such an unreasonable goal, what else can you say?

Assistant coach Gonzalez set his sights on head coach Roewe.

Roy Wei frowned, but there was nothing he could do.

This is a game between the Madrid Pirates and the Catalan United. He can do nothing but hope that the Catalan United can be awakened by these two goals.

After all, the game has only started 20 minutes ago, and it's their home court again... They shouldn't just raise their hands and surrender, right? (to be continued)
