Fox in the Penalty Area

Hu Lai looked at the live broadcast on the TV with a serious expression.

Li Qingqing could still feel his nervousness from his tense body language.

She totally understands this.

Saria took the lead against Catalonia United in the 37th minute.

But they were unable to maintain this lead, let alone expand their lead.

Catalan United then stepped up its offensive and continued to attack Saria's goal.

Despite the bravery and tenacity of the Saria team, their goal was conceded twice in the 41st and 62nd minutes.

Kabangka had one goal and one assist, showing his superstar style.

The current score is 2:1, with Catalonia United taking the lead at home.

If the score difference were bigger, Hu Lai might not be nervous anymore.

But it is precisely because there is only one goal between the two teams that Hu Lai cares so much.

If Madrid Pirates wants to overtake Catalonia United, they don't need Saria to defeat Catalonia United away from home, as long as they can draw with the opponent.

And now we are only one goal away from a draw.

Catalonia could certainly extend their lead to two goals, or even more.

But Saria also has the possibility of equalizing the score.

Although Hu Lai did not take the initiative to ask Zhang Qinghuan for help before the game, he still cared about the league championship.

After all, who doesn't want a championship?

Zhang Qinghuan made a move to block the hole of the gun at the front of the penalty area, blocking Kabangka's shot.

After getting up, he slapped his teammates hard and encouraged them.

As the team's midfield organizer, he must come back to participate in defense when the team is pressed back by the opponent.

In fact, this consumes a lot of energy.

If this was his first season in La Liga, Zhang Qinghuan would almost be unable to run at this point in the game.

The physical requirements of "Derby" are much higher than those of ordinary games.

Zhang Qinghuan has also participated in the Europa League. He believes that the intensity of the Europa League games is not as intense as the derby.

However, after four seasons of training in Saria, he is now able to take care of both offense and defense, and he will not run out of gas with only ten minutes left in the game.

Although he only went abroad to play football at the age of 26, which is a little late, he cannot compare with young people like Hu Lai and Xia Xiaoyu.

But Zhang Qinghuan also gained and made progress.

It's just that maybe due to Hu Lai's shocking performance, his progress was slightly insignificant.

But for him, he has indeed grown and improved.

Now even if he competes with Catalan United's core Kabangca in a derby, he will not be left too far behind.

Thinking back to the World Cup four years ago, what was his performance against Kabangka in the game?

After receiving the ball from Xia Xiaoyu, his movements and thinking slowed down, causing him to fall into the unfavorable situation of being pressed by Brazilian forward Tavara and midfielder Kabangka at the same time.

He also tried to protect the football, but was knocked away by Brazil's high center forward Tavara using his physical advantage. Then Kabangka quickly poked the football away, and he lost the ball.

It almost gave Brazil a goal just seven minutes into the game.

In front of Kabangka's performance as a god descending to earth, he was made to look like a clown.

In terms of his mentality at the time, he also felt that he was inferior to Kabangka.

But now, he has no such idea.

In the Barcelona derby, he and Kabangka are equal, and they are opponents that Kabangka also needs to try his best to defeat.

Soon when Saria won the ball, Zhang Qinghuan stretched horizontally in the midfield and asked his teammates for the ball.

As Saria's playmaker, it is impossible for Catalan players not to keep an eye on him.

So when the football was passed to him, Catalan United midfielder Victor van der Stern also ran towards him.

Zhang Qinghuan had already observed the surrounding situation before catching the ball and knew that there was space behind him.

So when he catches the ball, he naturally uses his left foot to slide the football to the right, and at the same time, he turns his body to the right.

When he received the ball, his body changed from facing the offensive direction to facing the offensive direction.

This is a very advanced detail.

If it were Zhang Qinghuan four years ago, he could do it, but it might be difficult to do it so naturally.

Although Zhang Qinghuan saved time by adjusting his body direction while catching the ball, he was still hit by Vander Stern.

He could no longer hold the ball and fell to the ground. At least he kept the ball.

The referee's whistle sounded and Vanderstern was called for a foul.

Huge boos rang out over the Holy Family Stadium.

Zhang Qinghuan did not rush to get up from the ground, but just sat there, listening to the boos and adjusting his socks and shin guards.

Until his teammates came up and pulled him up.

The score was obviously behind, but Zhang Qinghuan didn't look anxious at all.

Sun Juan, who was in the box at the scene, saw this scene through the TV broadcast and suddenly thought of the Olympic finals two years ago.

At that time, the Chinese team took the lead, and the host American team played very anxiously.

Under their pressure, Zhang Qinghuan behaved calmly and elegantly.

Sun Juan still remembers the scene when she was watching the live broadcast at the nurse station of the Affiliated Hospital of Jincheng Sports College.

Also remembers the scene she saw.

Every movement of that handsome man seemed to be so free and easy. Even when he was violated and fell to the ground, he did not lose this calmness and ease.

Just like now, he sat on the ground and took time to adjust his socks, and then re-tightened the loose shin guards.

It wasn't until his teammates came up and stretched out their hands to him that he was pulled up by his teammates with a smile.

He was even smiling after he stood up.

Sun Juan remembered the way this man looked at the scene, his whole person seemed to be emitting a dazzling light.

Now, she saw the same scene again.

An inexplicable thought suddenly occurred in her heart.

This idea has no basis or reason, it is just intuition.

Sun Juan knew very well that her boyfriend was in good condition today. Maybe... something would really happen?

Van der Stern's foul on Zhang Qinghuan just now allowed Saria to win a free kick.

However, the free kick is still in the backcourt, and it is difficult to directly threaten the Catalan United goal.

Saria didn't seem to be in a hurry. After getting the ball, he pushed forward at his own pace instead of trying to hit the football to the Catalan United goal with one big kick.

Zhang Qinghuan helped the team advance as a whole.

Then he tried a shot into the far corner from outside the penalty area.

Catalonia's Dutch international goalkeeper Thone Schulmann made a save, but failed to touch the ball!

The football finally drew an arc and turned from the outside of the goalpost to the bottom line...

"Zhang! What a pity!" Sanchez shouted. "The quality of his shot is very high!"

"Brother Huan is in really good condition today..."

Hu Lai, who was watching the live broadcast of the game, suddenly said this, and then nothing more happened.

Li Qingqing glanced at him and did not continue to ask. Instead, he turned his attention to the TV broadcast screen again.

Catalonia, which was only leading by one goal, did not dare to take it lightly, even though there were less than fifteen minutes left in the game.

This is a Barcelona derby.

Whatever happened in the last ten minutes of such a game was normal.

Catalan United head coach Reli Vicente kept making gestures to the players on the sidelines, indicating that they should continue to strengthen their attack and strive to score another goal.

Only leading by two goals at the end of the game can make him feel

to safety.

However, Saria's team was united and withstood Catalonia's rapid offensive in these few minutes.

This is the charm of city derby.

Two teams that are usually very different in strength can become inseparable as long as they add a BUFF like "Derby".

Saria's previous state was actually not good. Not to mention it was better than Catalonia. Even the newly promoted Canarias could beat Saria 4-0 at their home court.

After the coaching change, Sarria failed to win a game in the past three league rounds.

If based on a simple comparison of team strength, the score of the game between Catalonia and Saria should not be 2:1 in any case, winning only one goal.

But because of the "Derby" attribute, Saria exploded with huge combat effectiveness.

They were united in defense, and when attacking, they dared to invest their troops as before, and they dared to make moves when facing the stars of Catalonia United.

Just like now...

Catalonia United originally organized an attack, but due to a passing error, Saria counterattacked.

During the counterattack, Sarria's left back Adrian Juanma boldly pressed forward and reached the 30-meter area of ​​Catalonia United.

Then he received the ball from Zhang Qinghuan.

Facing the Catalan United right back Pablo Osqui who stepped forward to defend him, he actually pedaled a bicycle!

Osqui seemed to feel that he had been humiliated, lost his due composure, and stretched out his foot to steal the ball!

While he stretched his feet, Juanma gently moved the football to the middle, and then cut inside!

Just like that, Osqui was given away!

The Sagrada Familia was booed again.

After cutting inside, Juanma looked up to the center and found Torado in the penalty area, so he immediately passed the football to Torado...

However, it was completely different from the wonderful bicycle pass just now. Juanma's pass seemed a bit...low-level. 1

Because when he passed the ball, Torado was completely offside.

In other words, Juanma should not have passed the ball...

Torado also knew that he was offside - it was very obvious that he was offside, and it was definitely not an offside by half a body.

So when he saw the ball being passed, he didn't dare to catch it at all. He could only choose to stand there and watch the football slip away from him...

Then I heard the boos getting louder!

He turned around following the football and saw a figure coming out behind him!

It's "Brother Huan"!

Catalan United goalkeeper Schulman, who was originally blocking the angle from the front, turned around and pounced back, but it was too late!

"open--!!"

Zhang Qinghuan, who caught up with the football, directly swung his right foot, launched a ground ball, and hit the football backwards!

Schulman made a save, and the football slipped past him and eventually entered the net!

In the 79th minute of the game, Saria equalized the score!

This time it was Brother Huan who scored the goal!
