Fox in the Penalty Area

"Awesome! Hu Lai is awesome!!"

"Awesome!"

"Holy shit, Hu Lai's dick is so fucking awesome!"

In front of the TV, countless Chinese fans jumped up and waved their fists while cheering loudly.

This game kicks off at ten o'clock in the evening in China. For Chinese fans, this is the best time to watch the game. It will not kick off at six o'clock in the afternoon when everyone is still having fun and eating outside. It won't conflict with the prime time of various TV series and variety shows at 8 or 9 o'clock.

After ten o'clock in the evening, it belongs to the fans.

So this game was watched by a large number of fans, some of whom were not even fans, because the time was right and they came to join in the fun.

These people are undoubtedly lucky because they witnessed Hulay's two wonderful goals in this game.

It would be great if some of them could like the game of football because of it.

In addition to cheering in front of the TV, a large number of fans flocked to the Internet to express their feelings at this moment.

"When I scored the first left-footed goal, I thought it was luck. But two consecutive left-footed goals can't be said to be luck, right?! Hu Lai's left foot has become so magical?!"

"Although I am a King fan, I am also cheering for Hu Lai at this time, because Hu Lai is the pride of our Chinese football! There is no king in front of the country!"

"Brother, it's great! If only all Kings fans could be like you... I just saw someone claiming to be a Kings fan scolding Hu Lai on Weibo..."

"Friends, don't pay attention to such idiots. I believe that the vast majority of Chinese Kings fans are sensible!"

"Hahaha! Why do I feel so happy when I hear the boos from the Kings fans?! Well done to Hu Lai!"

"Although many of our players have played in Europe this season. But sure enough... we still have to watch Hu Lai!"

When Li Qingqing saw Hu Lai running towards the corner flag area, she also jumped up from the sofa and made the same celebration moves in front of the TV as Hu Lai did.

Then she turned around and looked at Hu Lai on the TV, smiling happily.

In another villa about a few dozen meters away from her, Maxi Carey's son also made the same celebration and cheered at the same time: "That's great! We are two goals ahead!"

Then he asked his father: "Dad, can we win this game?"

Carey sat on the couch and stared at the court, dumbfounded.

He didn't answer his son's question.

Television footage showed Hulay hugging his team-mates as they gathered around him to celebrate under the Crown's North Stand.

And Maxi Carey, the derby hero who once scored the only goal for the Pirates in the Madrid Derby in the 2022-2023 season and helped the team defeat the Kings at this stadium, can now only sit on the sofa in his living room Come on, be a... spectator.

This team no longer seems to need the hero he once was.

Because they have a new hero.

"...Hu's brace helped the Madrid Pirates lead the Kings 3:1 in the away game! The originally precarious situation for the Pirates was suddenly reversed! The morale of the Kings was hit hard! The Pirates, who were leading by two goals, could also be better Calmly carried out defensive counterattack..."

On the television, commentator Alvarez Sanchez chattered on.

A few minutes ago, he was the same one who said that the Madrid Pirates were in danger and a draw would be a satisfactory result.

On TV, the Crown Stadium was extremely noisy.

The mingling of boos, curses and cheers from 5,000 Pirates fans was carried into the living room via satellite signals and television speakers.

"Left foot again?! It's still luck this time?!"

Royvi stood in front of the coaching bench, spread his hands and questioned his coaching staff.

No one answered him, and even assistant coach Fernando Gonzalez, who previously thought Hulay's left-footed long shot was a lucky shot, shut up at this time.

Of course a left-footed goal can be said to be luck, no problem.

But what about the two left-footed goals?

And for this second goal, Hulay obviously deliberately shot with his right foot to deceive Peralta, and then shot with his left foot.

Why did he use his right foot to cheat?

Because what Peralta was guarding was Hulay's right foot.

Feinting with his right foot and actually shooting with his left foot means that he knows very well that his left foot has the ability to score.

Under such circumstances, it makes no sense to say that scoring with the left foot is just bad luck... it is an insult to people's IQ.

So Gonzalez could only draw one conclusion, and that was that Hulay had deliberately made them think that his left foot was unusable from the beginning, but in fact, his left foot was already the same as his right foot!

Gonzalez himself was frightened when he came to this conclusion - how could this be possible?

Hu Lai was not good with his left foot before. This is not a secret. He himself admitted in previous interviews that his left foot is not as good as his right foot.

Gonzalez also heard that after the transfer to Madrid Pirates, Hulay seemed to be consciously strengthening his left foot training.

But even so, still the same sentence - how is this possible?

He came to the Pirates in late July, only two months ago.

Two months’ time!

Training his left foot from zero to 100 in two months?

No, let alone 100, even if you practice to 60% of the passing line, it is impossible!

In Gonzalez's twenty-four years as a coach, he has never seen a player improve so quickly.

It's not like he hasn't seen those geniuses before. For example, Melly is such a super genius.

These geniuses always have superhuman understanding. They can easily understand problems that ordinary people need to think about for a long time.

They can also easily do tricks that others would take a great deal of time and effort to learn.

But this kind of learning is something they are born with.

Was Hu Lai born with a left foot?

Gonzalez couldn't understand how Hulay learned to score with his left foot in two months.

He could only give himself another logical conclusion in his mind, that is, Hulay did not start practicing his left foot after coming to Madrid Pirates, but he did so as early as Leeds City.

That makes sense.

He hit his face with a football with his left foot in the Europa League quarter-finals, and was once ridiculed that his left foot was equivalent to being disabled. Maybe that's when he started training his left foot?

It’s been almost half a year since then.

Although the time is still short, it is better to accept than two months, right?

However, these were Gonzalez's own internal analyses, and he did not speak out.

Because now is not a good time to share your feelings with Roy Wei.

The team was two goals behind with less than thirty minutes left in the game. It’s pointless to dwell on the question of how Hu Lai could suddenly score with his left foot.

Royvi finally replaced midfielder Osei with 19-year-old Russian winger Andrei Kalashnikov.

This is to strengthen the attack.

Kalashnikov, who just transferred from Russia to Madrid this summer, is a talented Russian winger. He is fast and has a strong ability to attack forward.

In Russia, people call him "Russian Melli" to illustrate how good his dribbling ability is.

Andrei Kalashnikov and Melli do have some similarities, not just in terms of dribbling.

In terms of body shape, he and Merry are also relatively similar - neither is very strong or tall. So be flexible.

Speaking of which, Kalashnikov and Hulay had a relationship - in the 202 Cup, Kalashnikov, who was only 18 years old, participated as the youngest player in the Russian national team. But he only played eight minutes as a substitute in the last game against Algeria...

There was nothing wrong with him in the game against the Chinese team. He watched the entire game from the bench.

So he and Hu Lai only met once, but they never fought against each other.

After monitoring Kalashnikov in Russia for two years, the Madrid scouting system finally signed him up this summer.

After coming to the Kings, Kalashnikov ran both directions. While receiving training with the first team, he also went to the second team to participate in the Spanish second team. In this way, he could adapt to Spanish football as soon as possible.

But occasionally he will be included in the first-team match list.

Such as this Madrid derby.

Royvi considered that Melli might be heavily targeted by the Pirates during the game, so he prepared a backup plan.

Now this backhand comes into play.

After replacing midfielder Osei, Royvi intends to let Melli retreat to his familiar midfield position, in the center and front.

The original right winger position was left to Kalashnikov, who just came on the field.

This formation is still 433, but it focuses more on offense and is murderous.

The King of Madrid is ready to fight to the death.

There are more than twenty minutes left in the game. If they want to continue their winning record against Pirates at home for four consecutive seasons starting from the 2023-2024 season, the Kings of Madrid will have to score three more goals...

There is not much time left for the king!

The sky above Crown Arena was filled with the cheers of Kings fans.

They no longer know how many times they have shouted that famous slogan in this game:

"Forward! King! Never give up! Fight to the end!"

"Forward! King! Never give up! Fight to the end!"

But this time, I wonder if the king’s spirit can shine and work...
