Fox in the Penalty Area

La Liga is different from the Premier League that Hulay once played. Even in the last round of the league, all games are not scheduled to kick off at the same time.

The last round of the Premier League all kicks off at the same time. This is done to avoid giving room for someone to manipulate the game.

After all, the former Premier League was one of the favorite sports events of Southeast Asian gambling groups.

La Liga is not like this. Even the last round of the league is divided into three days, with games from Friday to Sunday.

The two games related to who can win the championship are scheduled to kick off at 6 pm on Saturday, and at midnight on Sunday in China.

Compared with the past, when the game was often kicked off at three, four or five in the morning, the zero o'clock kick-off time is not too early, but it is still acceptable.

At least fans in China can watch the game if they endure it for a while. Besides, I don’t have to get up in the middle of the night and am forced to split my sleep time in half.

Even if you go to bed a little later at two in the morning after watching this game, there will be no problem. At worst, I just have to get up later, since I don't have to go to work on Sunday anyway.

Therefore, the time of this game is friendly to Chinese fans.

It is impossible to really schedule the kick-off at 12 noon Madrid time. Then the three teams competing for the championship will have opinions. When the time comes, whether they lose the league championship is because of their poor performance, or because the game time is too early and the players are not yet ready. What about adaptation?

However, Chinese fans still have to be a little "distressed" because the two games in the evening involve Chinese players, but they kick off at the same time. They either have to choose one of the two, or they have to focus on watching two games at the same time. Contest.

If the match between Madrid Kings and Saria was not related to the league championship, Chinese fans would not have to be so entangled.

Now everyone hopes that Zhang Qinghuan can help his teammates in Flash Star.

When Yan Yan, Mao Xiao, and Meng Xi knocked on the door of Chu Yifan's house carrying various braised vegetables, cold dishes, beer drinks, peanuts and melon seeds, Chu Yifan's girlfriend Tang Xiuyuan opened the door for them.

"Hello, sister-in-law!"

A group of people greeted Tang Xiuyuan energetically at the door.

Tang Xiuyuan let them in with a smile: "There are so many dishes!"

"I'm afraid that Captain Yan is not enough..." Meng Xi said from the side.

"It's okay. If it's not enough, we'll order takeout." Chu Yifan appeared in front of everyone, wearing an apron and holding a spatula in his hand.

Then he said: "Come two people to help!"

"I come!"

"I'm coming too!"

Four or five people rushed into the kitchen, and then they were kicked out by Chu Yifan, leaving only Yan Yan and Mao Xiao: "Climb, crawl, crawl! The kitchen is too small to fit in, two are enough! Yan Yan, peel the garlic, and Mao Xiao, you are tall, help me get the steamer drawer on the top shelf of the cabinet, and then wash these dishes..."

"Good!"

The three people had a clear division of labor and got busy in the kitchen.

It was before dinner in the afternoon of Saturday, May 13th. The alumni of Dongchuan Middle School gathered at the home of their captain Chu Yifan again, preparing to watch the championship decisive battle between Madrid Pirates and Catalonia United at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. .

※※ ※

It's not just Chu Yifan and Yan Yan who are preparing for tonight's game.

Hu Lixin saw Xie Lan playing with the newly bought tablet computer and asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

"Download the video software for watching football..." Xie Lan answered her husband while operating.

"Isn't there that soaring video?"

"Tengfei Video is the video software of Tengfei.com, and the one I downloaded is CCTV's own...it's done."

After saying that, Xie Lan opened the video software he had just downloaded, and a promotional advertisement appeared on the screen, telling users that the two games would be broadcast live at 0:00 tonight.

One is Madrid Pirates' away game against Catalonia United, and the other is Madrid Kings' home game against Saria.

The most eye-catching posters are the representatives of the four teams.

The representative of Madrid Pirates is Jule, and the representative of Catalan United is their captain Gaspar Rosas.

The representative of the King of Madrid is Melli, and the representative of Saria is of course Zhang Qinghuan.

"When the time comes, we will use the TV to watch our son's games, and at the same time use this tablet to watch the game between the Kings and Sarria, so that we can keep track of the latest game results!"

Xie Lan pointed to the tablet computer propped up on the coffee table.

Compared with the 85-inch TV at home, the screen of this 13-inch tablet is too small, but at least it is larger than the screen of a mobile phone. It is suitable for use as a secondary screen to watch games.

Xie Lan bought this tablet specifically to watch two games at the same time tonight.

Then Xie Lan took out his mobile phone and took a photo of the tablet and the TV in the same frame, and then posted it on Moments:

"Get ready, cheer for my son! My son will win!"

As soon as I posted it, I received many likes.

She made another comment: "Thanks to my family and relatives for their likes and cheers!"

Hu Lixin sighed: "Don't lose your character..."

He has now also learned the "bad words" used by netizens like "losing one's character".

Xie Lan originally wanted to refute her husband directly and have more confidence in her son.

But her mouth was open when she suddenly remembered the previous Champions League semi-finals. Her husband said that his son might not be able to reach the finals, but he was eliminated in the end...

So she clicked her tongue: "Crow's mouth!"

Hu Lixin:? ? ?

Han Shuyu wore a dark suit with a white shirt and a red tie, which made her originally cute look look much more mature.

Behind her is the majestic facade of the Sagrada Familia Stadium, the home ground of Catalonia United, and the fans who are constantly moving towards the stadium.

At this moment, she put on her headphones and connected to the camera and the CCTV studio behind her.

As a non-staff reporter, she was accustomed to connecting with the rear before games, but at this time she was still a little nervous.

"...I just interviewed a few fans from both sides outside. The Catalan fans are very confident and believe that their team can definitely defeat the Pirates at home. They also hope that their rivals in the same city can defeat the Madrid Kings away from home... ...The Pirates fans are much more cautious. Although they also hope that their team can defeat their opponents on the road, they all think that this will be a very difficult game..."

"In addition, I also met a Sarria fan at the scene. He told me that he hoped Sarria could beat the Kings away from home and the Pirates also beat Catalonia United. In this way, it would be a double win for the Sarria fans. We’re so happy…that’s how it is here, host!”

After the connection ended, Li Qingliang, who was taking pictures of her with his mobile phone, gave her a thumbs up, smiled and praised: "Perfect. You are becoming more and more like a professional reporter, Han Shuyu."

Han Shuyu still maintained the sullen expression on his face during the connection: "Actually, I'm super nervous!"

"You are already a veteran. Besides, you have already passed the Champions League semi-finals..." Li Qingliang complained.

"After all, this is a game with different meanings. This is a game that affects whether Hu Lai can win the championship! If he can win the league championship in his first season in La Liga, that would be great!" Han Shuyu's face An excited expression finally appeared.

"If he wins the championship, the king will lose the championship, Han Shuyu!" Li Qingliang reminded her.

Han Shuyu tugged on his red tie: "In front of my eternal home team, China, all kings are scum!"

Li Qingliang smiled and said nothing.

"Let's go, let's get ready to enter!" Han Shuyu turned around and waved.

Li Qingliang held his mobile phone and recorded her dashing posture as she turned around and moved forward in the camera lens.

Parotti stood in the locker room with his arms folded, looking at the players who had changed clothes and were getting ready to play.

He said:

"...I hope you haven't forgotten how we were eliminated from the Champions League. It was extremely painful for us to be eliminated by our arch-rivals, and now we have the opportunity to double that pain. Now we are obviously the number one team. , but why are there voices from the outside world that are more optimistic about the Kings? It’s simple, because they all think that we can’t win Catalonia United. The reason is that we tied with Catalonia United at home in the 19th round of the league..."

Having said this, Parotti spread his hands:

"This is ridiculous. They used the games before the 18th round of the league as evidence to prove that we can't beat Catalonia today. But why do some people still believe it? Because we really haven't won against Catalonia this season. That’s it, actions are 10,000 times more powerful than words. So don’t say anything, let’s go on the field and beat Catalonia and show those who don’t believe in us a good look!”

"It's about to begin, it's about to begin!"

Xie Lan stood up from the sofa excitedly.

On the TV screen directly in front of her, players from both Madrid Pirates and Catalonia United appeared in the tunnel, waiting to enter.

The TV broadcast gave Hu Lai a close-up shot of Xie Lan's son standing in the middle of the team, looking calmly at the stadium outside the tunnel exit.

"Okay! Hold still!"

Xie Lan patted his thigh and praised.

On the coffee table in front of her, a close-up of Zhang Qinghuan also appeared on the tablet placed on the stand.

He also seemed to be looking out of the passage.

※※ ※

In fact, Zhang Qinghuan was not looking outside the passage. The end of his gaze was Meili Banega.

This is Zhang Qinghuan's second season in La Liga, and it is his second time playing against Melli. In the first season, he did not get a chance to play in the game between Saria and the Kings.

In the 19th round of this season, Saria welcomed the King of Madrid at home. Zhang Qinghuan played against Melli for the first time in the game.

In that game, the Kings only won 1:0 on the road, and the process was not easy.

Saria played tenaciously on his home court.

Because the tactics were mainly defensive, although Zhang Qinghuan played in that game, his performance was not satisfactory. He was substituted in the 62nd minute.

After replacing him, Saria strengthened the midfield defense and tried to hold on to the 0:0 score. Yes, when Zhang Qinghuan was substituted, the score was still 0:0. The Madrid King did not break through Saria's goal.

As a result, Zhang Qinghuan on the sidelines witnessed the scene when Melli dribbled the ball through Saria's entire defense line and sent the football into the goal in the 83rd minute.

Sarria failed to hold on to the tie in the end, saying that they lost to the King, it can also be said that they lost to Melli.

This is a very powerful opponent, and Hu Lai is now able to fight him back and forth...

Although that kid is a bitch, he is really powerful.

Zhang Qinghuan thought so in his heart.

He hopes that he will not be replaced midway through this game, because he also wants to compete with the strongest new generation players.

Isn't it just for times like this that he went abroad to play football?
