Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 1705 Don’t stop shining

Amid dissatisfied comments from Chinese fans, the second half of the game began.

As soon as the game started, the Japanese team continued to attack the Chinese team's goal.

They wanted to score at the beginning of the second half.

The so-called five minutes after the start of the game and before the end are the most likely to score goals. The reason is that during these periods, players often lose concentration and have not yet entered the rhythm of the game, or have broken away from the rhythm of the game. The phenomenon.

At this time, as long as one side can enter the rhythm of the game faster than the opponent and concentrate more, it is very likely to create a threat and score a goal.

Near the end of the first half, the Japanese team took advantage of this and took the lead.

So in the second half, they will definitely continue to use this strategy, trying to repeat the same trick and score at the beginning of the second half.

If the Chinese team can lead by two goals, the situation will be stable.

Then the Japanese team can slow down the pace, use their passing ability and overall strength to take the initiative in the game on their own side.

Slowly consuming the game time also wore away the patience of the Chinese team players.

When the Chinese team lost patience and became more and more impatient, the Japanese team launched another sneak attack.

There was a good chance of another goal, extending the lead from two points to three points.

By that time, the Japanese team's victory was basically determined.

The above is the road map planned by the Japanese team for the second half.

The reason why they have this idea is because the Chinese team does not have Hu Lai, and its ability to seize opportunities in front of the goal has plummeted.

In fact, during the halftime break, the Chinese fans' comments in the stands were not unreasonable.

The last time the two sides met, Hu Lai indeed played a crucial role.

Although he only scored one goal, it didn't seem like he scored many goals, but he scored very crucially.

At that time, the Japanese team's morale was high after equalizing the score, and they were gearing up to overtake the score in one go.

Who would have thought that at this juncture, Hu Lai scored.

The Japanese team suffered a resounding blow. If they didn't get a breath of relief, they would never get up again.

This is Hu Lai's tactical role.

Compared with other forwards who can also score goals, Hulay is not only good at scoring goals, but also very good at scoring key goals at critical moments. He has a lot of goals or openers,

Either it was a go-ahead score, or it was scored after the opponent scored. These goals have a greater and more critical effect on the team than those icing on the cake.

In order to prevent him from scoring, the opponent team had to use more energy and strength to guard against him, which relieved the pressure on Hulay's teammates and created opportunities.

In this game, without Hu Lai, the Japanese team was even more unscrupulous when attacking.

When the Chinese team was besieged by the Japanese team, it was indeed unable to threaten the opponent's goal.

Although the second goal conceded was due to the players' lack of concentration, the inability to effectively threaten the Japanese team's goal before that was also a very important reason.

There is indeed a big difference between the Chinese team with Hu Lai and without Hu Lai. If it is the same with and without him, how can the importance of Hu Lai be reflected?

※※※

Li Qingqing couldn't help but glance at the time on her phone.

Ten minutes into the second half, it's 3:28 PM Madrid time.

Because their home is located in the middle of the training bases of Madrid Pirates and Madrid Kings, the time is almost the same no matter where they go.

But considering that Hu Lai drives slowly, it only takes Li Qingqing 13 minutes to drive, while Hu Lai may need 18 minutes to drive.

so……

"You should go." Li Qingqing reminded.

"good."

Although he said this and the person was already standing at the door, Hu Lai, who was carrying a backpack, turned his head and stared at the TV with no real intention to leave.

Li Qingqing also understood him and did not continue to press.

In the broadcast, the Chinese team is attacking.

Zhang Qinghuan sent a kick to the ribs.

The Japanese team's right back Kiyota Yoshitoki stuck to Chen Xingyi who was cutting inside and made a tackle to destroy the ball.

He did scoop the ball before Chen Xingyi.

However, the ball was shoveled towards the center by him...

This is not a successful rescue. It can only be said that under the pressure of Chen Xingyi, Qingtian Yishi made a mistake while busy and lost his head.

The football was cleared to the center by Kiyota Yoshitoki.

And Zhou Zijing happened to be in the middle!

There was a cheer in the stands.

Zhou Zijing caught the ball and swung his feet to shoot directly, which deceived the Japanese central defender. Their captain Kengo Yamayama stepped forward to block it, and then was passed by Zhou Zijing!

He did not stop the ball, but let the football pass in front of him, and Yamayama Kengo followed it up.

Zhou Zijing moved sideways again and caught up with the football!

Move the football diagonally toward the penalty area!

The second Japanese team center back Takehiro Nakaoka pounced on him.

Zhou Zijing swung his feet again to try to shoot, but Nakaoka Takehiro didn't dare to guard against it and stepped forward to block the shot.

Zhou Zijing still feinted a shot, gently pushed the football to the outside with the instep of his outside foot, then took a long step, caught up with the football and shot directly!

This time it's true!

But after his continuous adjustments, he lost the shooting angle. The football hit the chest of Japanese goalkeeper Nobuo Nishiguchi who came out to block the shooting angle...

After a muffled sound, Nobuo Nishiguchi fell on his back in front of the goal, and the football flew high, crossed the baseline, and flew out of bounds.

"oops!"

Hu Lai put his head in his hands and shouted in front of the TV.

"Idiot! There are too many adjustments! You should have shot after you knocked Kengo away from the mountain!"

"He probably wants to be more secure..."

"Think too much!" Hu Lai shook his head, with a tone of hatred mixed with irony. "Sometimes shooting depends on intuition. If your intuition thinks it is possible, you should take action decisively. Why do you care so much?!"

※※※

"Zhou Zijing shot! Oops! Nishiguchi Nobuo blocked it with his chest! What a pity! His series of performances before the shot were very good. While catching the ball, he shook off Yamayama Kengo and used a fake shot to deceive Nakaoka. Takehiro...although he is tall, he is very flexible in the Japanese team's penalty area, but it's a pity that the last shot...was too accurate!"

After Zhou Zijing saw that his shot was blocked, he lost his balance and fell to the ground. Then he hammered the ground hard and was very dissatisfied with his performance.

In the tactics arranged by head coach Dillon for this game, he did not regard Zhou Zijing as a "fort" for Chen Xingyi, Luo Kai, and Zhang Qinghuan, but specifically told him that as long as the time was right, he would Can score goals on his own.

"You are the center, Zhou. What does center mean? The center is not a cannon for his teammates. The center itself is a cannon!"

This is what Dillon said to him.

The head coach gave him full trust, but he did not repay the head coach's trust with actual actions.

So far in the game, the Chinese team is lagging behind, and he is responsible for this - if he hadn't missed many scoring opportunities, the Chinese team would have been ahead by several goals, how could the Japanese team still have the upper hand?

Just now he was able to shoot directly after shaking off Kengo Yamagami, but he was always worried that he was not close enough to the goal and the shot would be saved. So he thought about shooting closer to the goal, even closer...

Finally, when he took a shot, Japanese team goalkeeper Nobuo Nishiguchi had already opened his arms and rushed to him, as if he could take him into his arms.

Without any suspense, he kicked the ball right in the heart of the opponent's goalkeeper.

He only regrets that his kick was not strong enough to knock the Japanese team's main goalkeeper off the field...

The Premier League season starts two weeks earlier than La Liga, so when La Liga has only played two rounds, this season's Premier League has already finished four rounds.

In these four league rounds, he failed to score a single goal.

Kaili's transfer originally gave Zhou Zijing some unrealistic fantasies.

Thinking that he could enjoy the same treatment as Hu Lai, he just ran to the empty space and waited to eat the cake that Kaili fed to his mouth.

But the reality is cruel.

Zhou Zijing not only failed to eat the cake, but also vomited the cake several times.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Zhou Zijing always felt that after he vomited the cake a few times, Kaili's passes to him seemed to decrease.

He didn't score a goal in the club, but when he returned to the national team, he still didn't score a goal against Asian-level opponents.

Now that I think about my rhetoric, it seems a bit harsh...

So Morikawa is right?

Hu Lai and I are really different?

Zhou Zijing gritted his molars and got up from the ground, turned around and ran back.

He seemed to vaguely hear the yells and taunts from the fans in the stands behind:

"What kind of G8 thing are you kicking?!"

"I just said it, it has to be Hu Lai!"

But I didn’t seem to hear it…

He looked back and saw that there was a runway and a semicircular area between the stands and the stadium. They were far apart. Logically speaking, from this position, it was impossible to hear a specific word from a specific person in the stands.

He looked away, lowered his head and continued running back.

The stands were very noisy. I don’t know how many people were scolding him, and how many people were cheering him on.

Maybe none...

No, there is one more, there must be one.

※※※

Zhou Shenghai stood in the stands, listening to the complaints and criticism of his son from the fans around him.

He didn't argue with those people.

Because there is really no comparison between his son and Hulai. Everything they say is true.

Hu Lai did score more goals than Zhou Zijing, and Hu Lai's goals did seem much easier than Zhou Zijing's.

So what's there to fight about?

Although he didn't argue, it didn't mean that Zhou Shenghai felt that his son was in trouble.

Everyone has their own characteristics, and his son is inferior to Hu Lai in many aspects.

But there are things that are better than Hu Lai...

Come on, son!

Don't stop shining, evaporate all the cold water poured on you!
