Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 109 Hu Lai’s sense of oppression

After equalizing the score and replacing Zhou Zijing, Leeds City's offensive became more fierce.

The Madrid Pirates also had to shrink their defense and first withstand Leeds City's "new three-point ax".

Moreover, as the rain continued in the second half, the field became increasingly slippery, which also increased the risk and difficulty of controlling the ball for the Madrid Pirates, who play a passing game.

Dikunzo, who had one goal and one assist in the first half, did not perform as well as he did in the first half due to Junpei Morikawa's close defense and the slippery field.

All this forced Parotti to make adjustments.

Because of the contraction of the Madrid Pirates, Leeds City's formation pressed forward and the offensive became more powerful.

Judging from the scene, Leeds City's prospects are simply bright.

The Leeds City fans in the stands were also working very hard at this time, constantly cheering for their team and singing non-stop.

When their team hopes to defeat the Madrid Pirates, these fans are naturally unlikely to turn around and cheer for Hulay.

But Hu Lai himself didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Because this is the "normal game" he always wanted.

Everyone pursues victory based on their own abilities. If you have anything to say, let’s wait until the game is over.

"Zhou Zijing fought for a header and passed it to Lasky! Lasky tried to shoot, but Moreno blocked it from the bottom line. Leeds City got a corner kick!"

"Leeds City's corner kick was taken, and Ben Grist's header Hewell made a wonderful save! He saved this close header! Leeds City continued to take the corner kick!"

"Hewel punched the football out with both hands! Madrid Pirates' counterattack! Be careful... Junpei Morikawa! He made a contribution! He accurately judged Di Kunzo's path with the ball, tackled decisively, and kept the football! He He quickly got up and passed the football to Adams who was retreating to receive the ball. Adams passed the ball diagonally to Kamara..."

"Kamara relied on speed to force a breakthrough and made a pass from the bottom! Zhou!"

"Ouch! I'm cumming!"

"Although Zhou Zijing's header failed to reach the goal frame under Amantegui's close defense, it can be seen that he quickly entered the rhythm of the game after coming on the field.

The more you play, the better you get, and the more you play, the more confident you become! It's hard to tell that this is Zhou Zijing's first time playing in a Champions League game! "

…

In the North Stand, David Miller, who had previously expressed his intention to boo Zhou Zijing, watched the game below and curled his lips: "That kid did pretty well..."

Little Matthew glanced at his father.

As if feeling his son's eyes, David Miller quickly said: "Of course, if he wants to surpass Hu, he has no hope in his life!"

"He and Hu are not the same type of players, Dad."

"It's him who is picking on him and Hubie." David Miller snorted, then put his finger in his mouth and whistled to Zhou Zijing on the court.

A man should keep his word.

I said I'm going to boo you, I'm going to boo you!

※※※

Zhou Zijing could hear sporadic boos in the stands.

Because among the cheers, the boos are always more harsh.

He knew very well that these boos were directed at him.

Because it wasn't the first time he heard boos after finishing a shot in a home game.

As for why some fans of the home team booed him, Zhou Zijing also knew it.

It wasn't because of what he said before.

However, Zhou Zijing did not regret it.

In fact, the current boos can be considered "gentle" compared to the first boos he heard.

It turns out that as long as he can perform well in the game, he doesn't have to worry about the attitude of the fans at all.

He quickly put the boos behind him and got back to playing.

※※※

After Zhou Zijing came on the field, Leeds City strengthened their ability to control the frontcourt, but accordingly, their offense did not bring huge pressure to the Madrid Pirates like the previous storm.

This also allows the Madrid Pirates to get a chance to attack without waiting for Leeds City to be exhausted.

Of course, they don't have many offensive opportunities playing away games.

But they have Hu Lai.

So it can still threaten Leeds City's goal.

When the Madrid Pirates attacked, although Hulay did not get the ball at all, Leeds City goalkeeper Van der Ven kept shouting to remind his teammates:

"Be careful! Be careful with Hu! Pay attention to him! Don't let him escape!"

"Big Ben, look around you! Turn around! To the left!"

He was like a radar, constantly telling his teammates the location information he captured about Hu Lai.

After almost twisting his neck, Ben Grist finally caught Hulay's position and made a timely blocking action before he shot, blocking the football from the baseline.

"Well done, Ben!" Mikael van de Ven, who made a save but was in vain, jumped up from the ground, clapped his hands hard, and praised Grist's performance.

"Don't listen to Mikay, Big Ben." Hu Lai, who missed an opportunity, was not upset. He said to Grist beside him. "You are so big, have a high center of gravity, and are inflexible. Be careful not to be knocked down by me, but you will be knocked unconscious by Mikay's command."

But after he said that, Grist didn't talk to him. He just smiled at him and turned to his position to defend the corner kick.

Hu Lai was stunned for a moment and found the reason. Ben had been his teammates for two seasons and often defended him during training. Of course he knew what it meant to suddenly chat with him.

"Tsk." Hu Lai shook his head, and then turned his attention to another Leeds City center back.

Vaughan Acheson.

A Scottish centre-back who only joined the team this summer.

So he took the initiative to say hello to Acheson: "Hello, Vaughn. It's a pity that you just came to Leeds City and I left. How does the new team feel?"

Acheson looked at Hulay in surprise. He knew that Hulay used to be a Leeds City player, but he is no longer a player after all, but listening to his tone of voice, it seemed as if he was still in Leeds City...

What's up with this sense of ownership?

He didn't have time to think, so he responded reflexively: "Very good..."

Before he could finish his words, Pete Williams ran back into the penalty area and pulled him away: "Forgot what we told you, Vaughn? Ignore him!"

Hu Lai spread his hands: "Oh, Peter. You are so heartless!"

Peter rolled his eyes at him: "Your little tricks are useless in front of us, Hu. You'd better put all your attention on the game."

"How do you know I'm not focusing all my attention on the game? Don't you smell danger?" Hu Lai pointed at Pete and said, "You ignored me!"

"Your tricks are of no use to me, Hu Lai." Pete repeated, and then stood still beside Hu Lai.

"What are you doing?" Hu Lai asked.

"I'm responsible for guarding you in this corner kick."

Hu Lai's trick was really of no use to Pete Williams. After being fooled by Hu Lai several times with a translator, he knew not to listen to what this kid said, but to watch what he did.

So no matter what Hu Lai said, his attention was on Hu Lai's movements.

A corner kick was taken and Hu Lai ran to grab the point.

Pete followed closely.

The two of them just ran forward.

But Hulay was just a cover, and Tonini's corner kick went straight to the back point.

Moreno jumped up and competed with Leeds City centre-back Vaughan Acheson but failed to grab the ball.

The football was pushed out of the penalty area by Grist first.

The Madrid Pirates grabbed the second goal, but because Peter was right next to Hulay, Joaquin Vela did not pass the football, and finally chose to shoot from a long distance himself, and the result was high.

After the Pirates' attack was completely over, Pete said to Hulay: "Are you sorry that Acheson didn't pay attention to you?"

"What about the most basic trust between people? Don't put your dirty thoughts on me, Pete!"

Seeing Hu Lai's deflated look, Peter laughed happily.

But soon Pete stopped laughing.

Because Hu Lai almost scored their goal!

This time the Pirates launched an attack from their right wing. Silverio, whose performance had been ups and downs, suddenly flashed and passed through the crotch beautifully, passing Farrak Quinn who rushed too hastily, and then broke into the penalty area!

Kamara, who had returned to the penalty area, was afraid to make a move and could only follow Silverio to the bottom line, trying to force him out of the bottom line.

As a result, Silverio suddenly passed the ball, and Kamara was unable to react in time and did not put out his foot to block it immediately. Let the football pass to the goal.

Hu Lai, who followed up from the middle, tried to shoot directly with his right foot, but the football passed in front of him.

This move shook center back Ben Grist.

Then Hu Lai shot with his left foot!

He pushed the football to the far corner with his left foot!

Although goalkeeper Van der Ven made a save, he was beyond reach and did not touch the ball!

All we could do was watch the football go away... The foreign aid brushed against the back post and rolled out of the bottom line!

"Hu's shot is so dangerous!" Matthew Cox sighed.

Also sighing were the 30,000 Leeds City fans in the stands.

Their collective exhalation sounded like they were cheering for Hu Lai.

"call!"

"The ball caught up with Hu's left foot! If it had been his right foot, it might have gone in!"

Matthew Cox said with some fear.
