Fox in the Penalty Area

On the eve of the twenty-sixth round of the league, Hu Lai and Qin Lin honestly stayed in the hotel room without going anywhere. I have to say that there is a big boss as a roommate, even if Hu Lai has evil intentions, he is 100% not courageous, how honest and honest he must be...

"Hu Lai, come to my house for dinner with Wang Guangwei the night after tomorrow." It took almost a week, and finally finished tidying up the house with his wife, Qin Lin took the opportunity to invite Hu Lai.

Hu Lai was surprised.

"Haven't you been to your teammate's house?"

Seeing Hu Lai's reaction, Qin Lin asked.

"No, Brother Lin, you are the first one to invite me to your house..."

"Not even Wang Guangwei?" Qin Lin was curious.

"No." Hu Lai shook his head, "I'm not a girl, why should I follow him to his house? To see my parents?"

Qin Lin smiled——Wang Guangwei is still living with his parents now, and it really feels weird to invite his teammates to visit his home...

"Okay. It's just a private dinner with me here. Because I moved to a new house... In fact, I moved a long time ago. I'm usually the only one in the house, and I don't bother to clean it up. It's too messy to treat guests... ..." Qin Lin laughed. "However, my wife and children have moved here, and it finally feels like a home, and I can open the door to welcome guests."

Hearing what Qin Lin said, Hu Lai thought that Brother Lin seemed to have dispelled his previous doubts, and really wanted to stay in Shining Star for the rest of his life.

After the three-year contract expired, he was 41 years old and basically retired.

Being able to retire in his hometown team and return to his roots is a good ending.

"I'll definitely go then, Brother Lin!" Hu Lai promised.

"Well, tell Wang Guangwei again. Don't tell anyone else. This is a private invitation, and I don't plan to invite too many people." Qin Lin specially urged.

"Don't worry, Brother Lin, I'm very strict with my mouth." Hu Lai made a gesture of opening his mouth, which made Qin Lin laugh.

Then Hu Lai asked again: "But Brother Lin, if tomorrow's match... I mean, if, if you lose... I'm afraid it won't be good if people find out about the party?"

"Yes, so if you lose, it's another day.

"Qin Lin said, "As long as you don't lose, you can get together even if you draw. Of course, I have to declare in advance that it is not allowed to take photos and videos, and it is not allowed to post on Moments, Weibo, etc. We are having a private dinner after all. "

"Okay, don't worry. Brother Lin. Wang Guangwei and I hardly post on Moments." Hu Lai picked up his phone, "I'll just tell Wang Guangwei on WeChat."

Qin Lin also picked up the phone, he wanted to notify others.

In fact, he already knew who to notify.

He has been with the team for almost two months. During the time he spent with everyone day and night, everyone treated him well and respected him. After all, his status in Chinese football is unparalleled, but there is always a difference between closeness and estrangement.

Some people are just polite contacts, while others can be regarded as friends.

The latter is naturally the person he wants to invite.

But one person in this list of invitations is special.

Zhang Qinghuan looked at the screen of his mobile phone in surprise. He didn't expect Qin Lin to invite him to his house for a barbecue party the night after tomorrow...

He wanted to say no, but couldn't think of a plausible reason.

If he refused Qin Lin's invitation without a proper reason, wouldn't that be a slap in the face for Qin Lin?

Whether there is any conflict between him and Qin Lin, it doesn't make sense to do so.

Besides, the relationship between him and Qin Lin used to be quite good...although it was a long time ago...

In fact, it was three years ago, but why does he always feel that it is already a very, very far away thing?

Zhang Qinghuan hesitated for a long time.

This is good for chatting on WeChat. You don’t have to respond immediately like you do in person.

And now he can pretend he's not in front of his phone...

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Qinghuan felt that there was really no reason to refuse the invitation, so he replied: "Okay, Brother Lin, I will definitely go."

※※※

After receiving Zhang Qinghuan's answer, Qin Lin heaved a sigh of relief.

Although Zhang Qinghuan is already like this now, he still wants to have a good chat with the other party. At least figure out what happened in the past few years, what made him change from a talented super genius with a bright future to the current "Chinese football negative image spokesperson".

Even if he is wanton indulgence, there must always be a reason. It's impossible for a good person to suddenly degenerate, right?

After being in contact with Hu Lai for this period of time, he felt more and more that Zhang Qinghuan's depravity was something he regretted. Every time he saw the high-spirited Hu Lai, he couldn't help but wonder if Zhang Qinghuan would not be what he is now if he had been able to meddle in his own business back then.

From the perspective of his own interests, he also hoped that Zhang Qinghuan's situation would improve.

Recently, as opponents noticed the connection between him and Hu Lai, he faced a lot of pressure on the court.

He always thought that if Zhang Qinghuan could return to normal, it would be a big help to him.

After all, he is really not suitable to be a midfielder...

He still prefers to drop back and play better in the midfielder. And with his current age and physical fitness, going directly to the front to head-to-head with the opponent's defensive players would consume too much.

Anton Shining Star's away game against Lin Chunhongqi kicked off at 3:30 in the afternoon.

Zhang Qinghuan sat in front of the TV and prepared to watch the game.

When Qin Lin extended the invitation to him yesterday, there were preconditions.

That is, as long as there is no loss, the result is a draw or victory, the party will continue as usual.

But if the game is lost, the dinner will be rescheduled.

In other words, the result of this match is related to whether he wants to meet Lin Ge in private - he personally does not want to see Lin Ge, he is afraid of facing Lin Ge again.

He didn't know what expression to use to face the big brother who had given him a lot of care at the beginning.

That's why he didn't go up to say hello when he saw Qin Lin in the locker room.

He admitted that after agreeing yesterday, a thought flashed through his mind - in case the game is lost...

But he immediately pushed the thought out of his mind.

He doesn't have a deep relationship with the Flash Star team, but it hasn't reached the point where he wants to curse the team for losing...

Besides, with Brother Lin commanding in the midfield, if that kid played a little more normally, he might not necessarily lose.

This week, didn't the coaching staff make tactical adjustments specifically for what happened in the previous game?

The emphasis on wing tactics is to allow Hu Lai to face the goal head-on and get closer to the goal, so that his threat can be greatly increased.

After observing this period of time, Zhang Qinghuan is already very clear about the strengths and problems of this so-called "super genius".

The advantage is naturally that he has a strong ability to run without the ball, and he has a better grasp of opportunities than others. Coupled with his good shooting skills, he can always seize opportunities in time and use them effectively, unlike other forwards , used to squandering the passes given to them by those teammates...

In this regard, Zhang Qinghuan was not against Hu Lai either.

But in terms of shortcomings, there are many.

Poor physical confrontation ability, average speed, rough foot skills, almost no dribbling ability, except for shooting, other abilities are quite mediocre, and he is a type of striker who is highly dependent on his teammates.

In today's mainstream football tactics, this kind of striker has less and less room to survive. Zhang Qinghuan has every reason to believe that if Shan Xing was not coached by Zhao Kangming, who has always admired him, he would not even be able to enter the first team.

It's not like me. I can be the commander who organizes the attack, or the midfielder who sends the final fatal pass. I can also pull to the side to use speed and technology to form a breakthrough. It is a template for an all-round midfielder.

Otherwise, how did the media say that he was Brother Lin's successor?

Tsk, this is another saying that feels very far away...

Zhang Qinghuan shook his head, got rid of those things that were destined not to come back out of his mind, and began to pay attention to the game.

As the game progressed, his expression gradually changed.

When Lin Chunhongqi scored the second goal, he was already yelling and cursing: "Fuck me? What the hell! I really didn't curse..."

"Flashstar conceded again! To be honest, it's been a long time since they conceded two goals in a single game... The last time they conceded two goals dates back to July 3rd, in the seventeenth round. They lost 0:2 at home to Hexi Daqin..." The commentator of Anton Satellite TV was a little depressed.

Two goals behind, and it is an away game, this game is not easy to play.

Lin Chunhongqi was ranked sixth in the league before this game, and his strength is indeed good, and he is playing at home again.

But Anton Shining Star is also in good form recently. Since they lost 0:1 away to the Capital Athletic in the twenty-first round, they have remained unbeaten in four league games.

In the league ranking, it is only three places lower than Lin Chunhongqi.

It stands to reason that there is still a fighting force.

Unexpectedly, after more than 50 minutes of the game, Shining Star fell behind by two goals.

"...The Lin Chunhongqi team mainly arranged tactics against Qin Lin in this game. They defended Qin Lin very strictly, and they were very aggressive when defending... To be honest, I think the referee is a bit like a home whistle... "Guest commentator Lu Guanlin tactfully expressed his dissatisfaction.

Not only Qin Lin, but other Flash Star players often encounter collisions from each other during the game. And if the Flash Star players fall down in a physical confrontation, the referee will indeed call the home team players less fouls, which will cause the Flash Star to be completely at a disadvantage in the scene.

"It's still hard to rely on Qin Lin alone..." Assistant coach Chen Mo said to Zhao Kangming anxiously after seeing this scene off the court.

"The mode is indeed a bit monotonous... But there is no way." Zhao Kangming leaned against the awning of the coach's bench with his arms folded, shaking his head. "Let Han Xiangfei warm up, we have to make some changes."

After the assistant coach Chen Mo heard it, he got up and waved to the bench and shouted: "Han Xiangfei, warm up!"

Han Xiangfei quickly put on his vest and ran to the warm-up area.

At this moment, the noise in the stands on the sidelines suddenly increased a lot, which frightened him to stop, and turned his head to look at the stands.

Behind him, assistant coach Chen Mo and head coach Zhao Kangming looked into the stadium.

In the direction they were looking at, the star's core midfielder, veteran Qin Lin, was lying on the ground with his right foot in his arms.

Qin Lin's wife and son were watching live TV at home. When Qin Lin fell to the ground, his son Qin Qi exclaimed: "Mom! Dad is injured!"

His mother stared at the TV screen solemnly, and did not respond to her son's shouts...

Sitting on the coffee table, Zhang Qinghuan was almost sure that he didn't have to go to the appointment, but he still couldn't help cursing: "Fuck!"
