Fox in the Penalty Area

Among the steps that the Madrid Pirates want to achieve the "Triple Crown", the Champions League champion is considered the most difficult, because the opponent is the strongest and has a special hatred bonus.

The Copa del Rey is the easiest, because the opponent Sarria is not strong.

The league is in the middle. In theory, the Madrid Pirates may have a very high chance of winning the championship. The third-ranked King Madrid has withdrawn from the league title competition early, and they can only put all hopes in the Champions League final.

But the Catalan United still have hope of competing for the league title.

They are only four points short of the Madrid Pirates. If they can defeat the Madrid Pirates in the thirty-seventh round of the league, they can reduce the difference between the two sides to one point, so that the last round may even create a miracle.

In the last round of the league, Catalan United will play against Atletico Corvette at home, while the Pirates of Madrid will challenge Real Huelva away.

These two teams are currently in the relegation zone and have a chance to go ashore. Such a team is the most difficult to play.

Catalan also has the advantage of playing at home, and the Madrid Pirates have to go to Real Huelva's home.

What if they were really overturned by Real Huelva in the away game?

At that time, wouldn't the Catalan United want to create a miracle of reversing and winning the championship?

No matter how slim the hope is, there is always a dream, what if it comes true?

Of course, to achieve a miracle, you must first do your own thing well.

For example, we must first defeat the Madrid Pirates in the away game, and then return to the home court to defeat Atletico Corvette.

The Catalan United team arrived in Madrid the day before the game. In the evening they will conduct training at the Pirates Park Stadium to adapt to the venue and participate in the pre-match press conference at the same time.

Generally speaking, one or two players will be invited to participate in the pre-match press conference.

Bernal was not surprised when Carlos Cordero approached coach Jose Bernal and said he wanted to attend the pre-match press conference.

"I knew you were looking for me."

He even said so.

"But I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to have you in the pre-match press conference..."

Afraid that the head coach would disagree, Kudlow fought hard: "Of course it's a good thing, a 100% good thing. I often dream about that game in my dreams now. I hope that tomorrow's game will be the end of that matter. And even if I don't Going to a press conference, and the questions from the media reporters are almost always about me. I don’t want to be a coward who hides.”

Bernal sighed, he knew he couldn't convince Cordero, so he nodded: "Okay, I agree with you to go."

"I came to Pirates Park with a strong purpose."

At the pre-match press conference, goalkeeper Carlos Cordero really became the focus of everyone present.

Brazilian star Kabanca, who attended the press conference with him, seemed to be ignored.

But Kabanka didn't care. Hearing what Cordero said, he patted the shoulders of his teammates around him as a sign of encouragement, saying that he stood with him.

Hearing what Cordero said, the reporters in the audience were also excited.

Everyone knows what Codello is talking about-in the eighteenth round of the league, the Madrid Pirates challenged the Catalan away. In that game, the Madrid Pirates finally beat the Catalan with a score of 4:1.

But more interesting than the results is the process.

The reason why the Catalan United lost so badly was because Codello made two very low-level mistakes in the game.

Pass the ball directly to Kamara once to help Kamara assist Hu Lai to score.

Another sloppy shot caused Cordero to drop the ball over his shoulder and into the goal.

Cordero was the target of criticism after the game, although he said the first error was a deliberate trap set by Hu Lai, which did not ease the pressure on him.

Of course, Hu Lai also shared some of the burden, but Hu Lai doesn't care...

It's time to scold, I won, what's the matter?

Kudello didn't have such a good attitude, because the Catalan United really lost.

Now it seems,

If the Catalan United hadn't lost that game, even if it had been tied, the point difference between the two teams would not be four points, but one point.

"God Comes"

As long as the Catalan United beat the Madrid Pirates in this round of the league, they will be able to firmly hold their destiny in their own hands without having to look at the faces of other teams in the last round of the league.

So if the Catalan United did not win the league championship in the end, it can also be said that they failed in the eighteenth round of the league, and they were doomed to miss the league championship.

Then Cordero, who made two mistakes, must bear the main responsibility.

"I know I made two mistakes in the last match, but it happened for a reason. Besides, it also proved that if Hu didn't use those sloppy tricks, he would not be able to score against me...I know Hu has 32 in a row. If he has scored goals in all rounds of the league, then his scoring streak will come to an end!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar at the press conference.

Reporters finally heard the explosive content they most wanted to hear!

Carlos Cordero challenged Hu Lai!

He wants to end Hu Lai's scoring streak!

Will Hu Lai respond?

※※※

Hu Lai did not participate in the pre-match press conference of both sides. He was stopped by the reporters on his way from the bus to the locker room.

"I watched his (Codlow) interview. Regarding the record, I said from the beginning that I don't really care how long I can extend the record. From the moment I set the record, I have It's clear that any record is meant to be broken. So he's going to end my record? No problem. Anyone can come and end my record."

After briefly answering the reporters' questions, he followed the other teammates to the dedicated channel.

The reporters chattered behind him:

"Hu is so low-key?"

"Oh, what a pity, Hu didn't accept the move. The two didn't quarrel!"

"I think Hu's approach is right. What's the point of fighting so much before the game? Can Cordero really end Hu's record? Don't you know when the game comes?"

"Hu Zhen is getting more and more mature, instead of having a verbal war with Cordero, it's better to talk about the scene..."

Chinese journalists also whispered together:

"Spanish reporters actually think that Hu is getting more and more mature? Can't they hear the sarcasm in Hu Lai's words?"

"That's right. What 'Anyone can come and end my record' clearly means 'I want to hit ten'!"

"Cough... To be honest, if I didn't know Hu Lai's true face well enough, I wouldn't be able to recognize it..."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, don't guess other people's thoughts casually. There is no such thing as 'I want to hit ten', and there is no such thing as yin and yang. There is no nonsense, so let's not guess. Report the truth and it's over."

"Oh right! That's right! When Hu Lai faced the challenge of Codello, he kept a clear head, free from outside interference, and focused on the game! A person with a thunder in his chest and a face like a lake, but I worship you as the general! You are crazy!"

The Madrid Pirates won a throw-in just five or six meters past the halfway line.

Tonini is closest to the football, he catches the ball thrown by the ball boy and wants to throw the ball in.

But was stopped by Yoon Martinez.

"Go away, Tonini! Go on!"

Yin Weng ran up and waved Tonini back to the field.

He's coming to throw the throw-in.

Yin Weng Martinez has the nickname of "Grenadier", and his strong hand throws the ball out of bounds is his stunt.

If it is a throw-in very close to the penalty area, the Catalan United team will be highly nervous.

But the ball was far away from the goal and the penalty area, and it was difficult to threaten the goal. Therefore, Catalan United's defensive focus was still on Tonini who ran forward along the left for a certain distance.

They thought that Yin Weng was going to cooperate with Tonini and throw the football to the Brazilian full-back.

Unexpectedly, Yin Weng retreated a full three or four meters with the football in his arms—because there was not enough space for the billboard on the sidelines, he still retreated obliquely.

Seeing this posture, the Catalan players immediately realized that Yin Weng was about to "throw a bomb" again!

They immediately look for possible catch targets.

Who else?

Of course it's nonsense!

Originally, there was a Catalan central defender Paul Fortune next to Hu Lai, but now another central defender Joel Jimenez has gone up.

Two people want to double-team Hu Lai.

At this moment, Hu Lai suddenly started to advance and ran behind the two central defenders!

This puts him in an offside position.

But... the throw-in was not offside!

So although Hu Lai inserted behind the two, he was offside.

But Yin Weng on the touchline still threw the football towards Hu Lai in the distance!

The football flew through the air for a distance of about 30 meters, and landed in front of the Catalan United penalty area!

This is outrageous!

"Yoon Ong! Great throw-in! Great shot!

"

Catalan goalkeeper Carlos Cordero immediately pressed forward when he saw this, but instead of abandoning the goal, he shortened the distance between himself and Hu Lai to block his shooting angle.

At the same time, Yoel Jimenez chased from the side, trying to squeeze Hu Lai to the side.

He succeeded.

Because when Hu Lai stopped the ball, he really stopped the football to the outside with the instep of his left foot.

Others also chased the ball away, deviated from the goal, and the angle became smaller and smaller.

But after catching up with the football, Hu Lai didn't give up the idea of ​​shooting. He didn't make any adjustments, and swung his left foot directly when he was not facing the goal!

One and a half turns around and shoots!

The football is flying high towards the goal!

When Cordero saw the football flying, he immediately jumped up, raised his arms high, and made a save!

He didn't dare to bet that Hu Lai's kick would directly hit the plane...

His hand didn't touch the ball!

The football flew over his palm, and then suddenly fell!

Kodello was still in the air, turned around and saw the football fall into his goal from the far corner!

Yoon Martinez, who stood on the sideline after the throw-in and watched the show, saw the football fly into the goal, raised his arms, turned to the Madrid Pirates fans in the stands, and cheered with them!

Assist, it's that simple!

"Ahh! Huh! Huh!

! mess!

Sanchez roared up. "Only seventeen minutes into the game, Hu took the lead for the Madrid Pirates!" He took the lead in scoring and scored in the 33rd consecutive league round! The fifty-fourth goal of the season! This kind of Hu is unstoppable! "

He Feng roared: "Hu Lai——! Beautiful! The world wave! A difficult turn and shot! It even hit the effect of an elevator ball! Before the game, Cordero said that Hu Lai's consecutive scoring record would end with him. Now His mission ended early! There is nothing to say, the ball is not offside, and the throw-in is not offside!"

Yan Kang was even more excited: "Isn't Codello unconvinced? Come on! Unconvinced by dictatorship! Hahaha!"

Carlos Cordero, who fell from the sky, was lying on the ground, staring blankly at the football in the goal.

This time he made no mistakes, and Hu Lai did not play any tricks.

But he still dropped the ball!
