Fox in the Penalty Area

After Hulay transferred to the Pirates, he was a little surprised when he saw captain Juan Ramirez blasting the football into the goal during shooting training.

Because it is said that Ramirez's scoring ability is very weak, he originally thought that the captain was the kind of player with poor shooting skills who could kick an empty goal five meters in front of the goal into the stands behind.

But during team training, whether it was shooting training or offensive training, the captain performed very well.

One day after training, Hu Lai couldn't help but asked his doubts to his face.

"Captain, you are not bad at scoring, but you have only scored four goals in so many years?"

Faced with Hulay's question, Ramirez laughed: "My task is to defend, not to score goals, so I can still score four goals. It's not bad."

"But the outside world has misunderstandings about you. They say you can't shoot or score goals..."

Ramirez still had a smile on his face: "It doesn't matter what others think of me. I play for the team, not for those who blame me."

He said this very calmly, not like he was making excuses, nor like Kaili who was showing off.

Coming from Ramirez's mouth, it was normal and didn't feel inappropriate at all.

"But captain, haven't you ever thought about scoring a goal?"

"If the team needs me to score goals, I can. But most of the time, I don't need it... We Pirates always have no shortage of good forwards. We had Maxi before, and now you, ha. So why should I go? A field goal? I just have to defend well."

Now seeing the captain standing there shaking his fists and cheering after the goal, Hu Lai thought of that scene again, and the expression of the captain smiling and saying those words to himself.

"My job is to defend, not to score goals."

So in fact, it's not that the captain can't score, but that he doesn't want to score.

Yes, in this world, there are always some people who make choices that are different from ordinary people.

No wonder Juan Ramirez can become one of the top three defensive midfielders in football today.

When a person is focused on doing something to the extreme, let alone the top three in the world, even the first in the world... is not impossible!

Hu Lai thought of himself again.

Although he is receiving special training from Qingqing to increase his ability to control the ball in the penalty area, in the final analysis it is to score goals, not to transform himself into an offensive organizer.

He himself knows this very well. Even if he has encountered setbacks in the game and made him want to change something, the result of the change is still to enable himself to score more goals.

So if you also reach the top when it comes to scoring goals, what height will you reach in the end?

Hu Lai suddenly became excited.

How many goals will he have scored by the time he retires?

Can it break the natural-year scoring record of "French Cannon" Celine Montiel?

Can he break Celius Caesar's career scoring record?

"Eagle King" Fiorijo Igovara said that it is impossible to become the "Ball King" just by being able to score goals. So if I can score many, many goals, more than people imagine, and win the championship with these goals, can I become the "King of Balls"?

Hu Lai thought very far.

Because he is only 24 years old now, retirement is really far away from him now.

When Hulay ran towards the captain, Ramirez hugged him and praised him loudly: "Good pass, Hulay!"

Seeing this scene, Spanish commentator Sanchez exclaimed: "Wow! This is incredible! Hu, who rarely assists, actually passed the ball to Ramirez in this attack, and Rami, who rarely scores goals Reis scored a goal instead! This is really amazing! Pirates of Madrid equalized the score! Ramirez scored the goal. In fact, the goal conceded by Atlético Amsterdam was not unfair... After all, no one would have thought of Ramirez. He actually scored a goal! This is the fifth goal of his career!"

He Feng also reported some surprising data to everyone:

"This is Jule's first assist in his Champions League career, and this is also Juan Ramirez's first goal in his Champions League career... What a coincidence, ha! Two first goals We met once!"

"Hell!" Munster shook his fist angrily on the sidelines.

He really didn't expect that the second goal of the Madrid Pirates would be scored by Ramirez.

Who would have thought of this?

This man has only scored four goals in the past eleven years of his career... No normal coach would consider his scoring threat when defending...

This is neither a problem for the players nor a problem for him as the head coach.

This is...a question of damn fate!

There is a feeling that someone is unlucky enough to drink cold water and his teeth are blocked. If Hu Lai scored the goal, he would admit it, but it happened to be Ramirez... the midfielder who is least good at scoring!

"Haha! Hu chose the best passing target!" In front of the coaching bench of the away team Madrid Pirates, assistant coach Valentin clapped his hands and laughed.

Parotti, who was next to him, also laughed and said: "But this is really not a deliberate arrangement by me... He just knows Ramirez's shooting ability. This ball is not difficult for Ramirez."

He was right. After letting Hulay attract the defensive attention, he then passed the football to other players. This was indeed his instruction to Hulay.

But he didn't say who specifically asked Hu Lai to pass it to.

This matter can actually be designated. If there is a player in the midfield who is very good at long-range shooting, the coach may specify the target.

Parotti gave Hulay full freedom to choose freely. He believes that Hulay's game experience is indeed very rich for a young player.

It's not because he plays too many games.

It is the effect of the system that he has taken [Experience Potion], which can deepen his understanding of the game and improve the effect of gaining experience in the game.

This thing is permanent.

It was still in the distant year of 2020. Hu Lai, who participated in the national competition for the first time, stepped forward in the players' restaurant and helped the team fight back against the provocation of Wang Le, the captain of Xizi Middle School in Anqiu City, Western Yuan Province. After completing the task, he was awarded Such a thing.

Because he had taken [Experience Potion], even if Hu Lai did not play many more games than his peers, he gained more experience from the games than others.

Experience is a very mysterious thing.

Some experiences are difficult to explain clearly in words, but when experienced players are on the court and in the game, it will be easier than those with less experience to make the right choice.

There is no doubt that passing the football back to Ramirez who then inserted it was the right choice.

After Ramirez's goal helped Madrid Pirates equalize the score, Atlético Amsterdam could not slow down the pace and deal with the Pirates slowly.

This is their home court and the game where they have the best chance of winning.

If they can't win at home, it will be even more difficult for them to win on the road.

So no matter what, the team must try its best to win.

If the previous slow pace continues, then Madrid Pirates will definitely be happy for Atlético Amsterdam to do this.

Because they are away games, a draw is completely acceptable.

So when the game restarted, Atlético Amsterdam, which had conceded the ball, appeared to be more active and continued to press forward to attack.

The Madrid Pirates, who had just scored a goal, took the initiative to retreat and allowed Atlético Amsterdam to attack.

Their idea is actually very simple and can be seen through at a glance. It is not a secret but they want to fight back against Atlético Amsterdam.

Even if Atlético Amsterdam knew this, they could only bite the bullet and attack.

There are still twenty minutes left before the end of the game. If you include injury time, there are still more than twenty minutes.

This time is definitely not enough.

After a little dealing, there were only fifteen minutes left.

By this time, the physical fitness of both parties will enter a bottleneck period.

If Atletico Amsterdam cannot score a goal as soon as possible, it will only make the Madrid Pirates more confident as they defend, while Atletico Amsterdam's players become more aggressive and impatient.

To avoid this, of course, react quickly after losing the ball.

Chen Xingyi took the ball from the wing, and Silverio immediately pressed forward. After Chen Xingyi scored, Silverio finally did not dare to underestimate the Chinese player in front of him anymore.

In addition to Silverio, full-back Irazusta is also on the side.

The two of them once again formed a double defense against Chen Xingyi.

Chen Xingyi picked up the ball and took it near the baseline.

However, because Silverio kept his position stuck, Chen Xingyi did not find a chance to break through.

In the end he could only force a cross.

It was also blocked by Silverio's outstretched leg.

Atlético Amsterdam receives a corner kick.

This corner kick came out, and when everyone focused their attention on the center backs and big men of both sides, Chen Xingyi suddenly emerged from the gap in the crowd, and he ran to the exact spot where the football landed!

"Chen Xingyi!"

Then a lion shook its head at the flying football!

On the line of the small penalty area, the football was thrown backward by him. This was almost a guaranteed goal!

But I saw the main goalkeeper of Madrid Pirates, Seawell, as if he had rocket boots installed on his feet. He suddenly shot back and reached out to fish out the football that was about to fly over the goal line!

"Header! This goal... Oops! Did this goal go in?" He Feng himself was not sure.

He originally planned to cheer for Chen Xingyi's two goals, but he saw the football flying out from the direction of the goal again. He was not sure whether the ball was fished out by Hywell behind the goal line.

However, goal line technology has been completely popularized by this time. The chip built into the football is connected to the signal terminal on the referee's arm. If the football as a whole passes the line, the chip will send out a signal, and the terminal on the referee's arm will start to vibrate when receiving the signal. The referee scored the goal.

So everyone just needs to pay attention to the referee's gestures.

Everyone turned their attention to the referee, but saw that he did not have a whistle to indicate a goal...

"The ball didn't go in! Oh, what a pity, what a pity! Haywell once again made a key save to save the Madrid Pirates! This is not the first time he has made such a key save in this game!"

Hywell stole the show, but Chen Xingyi, who headed the goal, held his head in his hands and looked at the Belgian goalkeeper in disbelief.
