Fox in the Penalty Area

"In the just-concluded twenty-eighth round of the Chinese League One, Flash Star finally scored again. Hu Lai scored their only goal for the team, but it couldn't stop Flash Star's downward trend Since they lost 0:2 away to Lin Chunhongqi in the twenty-sixth round of the league, Shining Star has suffered three consecutive losses in the league. Their league ranking has also dropped from the previous ninth place to the fourteenth place , only two away from the relegation zone...

"Flash Star's recent poor performance is directly related to the injury of their core midfielder, the absolute main player, Qin Lin. Qin Lin was injured in the match against Lin Chunhongqi. He was unable to continue the game and was replaced. After the match, he was checked. It was discovered that the fifth metatarsal of the right foot had cracks in two places... Initially, it was estimated that it would take three months before he could return to the training ground. By then, the Chinese League One this season would have ended... In other words, Qin Lin will not return to training this season. It's totally paid off...

"The loss of Qin Lin has had a great impact on Flash Star. The team's offense has lost its threat. In the three rounds, only in this round of the league, Hu Lai seized the hard-won opportunity to score a goal for Flash Star. It saves face a little, but it doesn't help the result of the game... With six rounds left in the league, if Flash Star can't solve this problem, I'm afraid all their energy will have to be used to fight for relegation..."

"Fuck!"

Although Hu Lai was mentioned in this article, it was not a reprimand, but a positive comment, but Hu Lai couldn't help but swear.

Yes, that's right, his goal in the away game can be regarded as saving Shining Star's face...but what's the use of face?

It's a loss if you don't, you didn't get a point from your opponent.

So after the team lost three games in a row, the ranking dropped to fourteenth place, eight points away from Yunshan Caiyun, who was in sixteenth place.

If it weren't for the eight-point gap, Hu Lai would have thought that he had traveled through time and space and returned to the time when he just joined Flash Star two months ago...

At that time, Shining Star was also in the fourteenth place, and Yunshan Caiyun was still ranked sixteenth, but at that time, Shining Star was ahead of Yunshan Caiyun by six points.

So after going around for more than two months, after playing eleven rounds of the league, everything returned to the original point, and Flash Star's lead over the relegation zone expanded from six points to eight points, which is really... gratifying.

Of course, he was not cursing this article, but scolding this damn football.

Qin Lin's serious injury really fully explained why he always said "football is round".

Before that, Qin Lin played the whole game every game. Even at the last moment of the game, he can run back to defense on the field, which is better than some young people's physical fitness.

His excellent physical fitness even makes people forget that he is actually a veteran among the veterans who will turn 39 at the end of the year.

With age, muscle strength declines, and injuries will naturally increase.

How did he completely lose his position in the South China Tigers?

Isn't it because of injury?

An injury plus recovery time, it took almost three months. When he returned to the team, he found that there was no place for him in the team.

Not reconciled to retiring, he declined the club management contract offered by the South China Tigers Club, and chose to take the risk to come to the hometown team of the Chinese Premier League to shine.

But after returning from injury, the South China Tigers have never played systematically. After all, he has been reduced to a substitute player, and the opportunities to play are getting less and less.

After coming to Flash Star, he has been playing high-intensity and high-load games, playing all the games he played before he was injured.

So the body finally couldn't hold on...

collapsed.

Judging from the team's performance in the past three rounds, the absence of the big boss Qin Lin has basically lost the backbone-Qin Lin, the "last big boss of Chinese football", has a leadership quality that is not blown out by the media. Although he is not the captain , but the role in the team is greater than that of the captain.

Hu Lai is now particularly worried about the team's final relegation prospects.

If the team is really relegated, I'm afraid his life in the team will not be easy.

Once Director Zhao left, his backer was gone. If another head coach who is as virtuous as Sun He, thinks that he does not conform to his tactics, and puts himself in the cold palace, won't his career that has just flourished be going to a dead end?

That's why he was so distracted and so fragrant.

Wang Guangwei walked out of his room when he heard Hu Lai's swearing, and stood at the door of Hu Lai's room to comfort him: "Don't be too impatient, Hu Lai. After all, we are still eight points away from the relegation zone..."

"Hehe." Hu Laipi smiled. "There are still six rounds in the league. Who knows what will happen next? Besides, when the team ranked ninth, no one thought that we could fall back..."

Faced with what Hu Lai said, Wang Guangwei had nothing to say, because it was the truth.

The polarization in the league is very serious. The points of the top teams are far from those of the other teams behind, but the teams in the bottom half of the ranking are biting each other, entangled, and the fight is inextricable.

It is a good result if you win a game and advance one place, but if you lose a game, you may drop several places in a row...

"Actually, I think the team's current problem is not the offense, but the defense should be strengthened. Even if it is difficult for you and Murphy to score in the future, as long as we can defend the opponent's offense, a draw is not bad. Leading by eight points As for the advantage, re-establish a solid defense, at least don't continue to lose." Wang Guangwei put forward his own opinion from the perspective of a central defender.

Hu Lai shook his head: "Defense is passive after all. If you want to improve the team's confidence, you still have to rely on offense. Otherwise, if you can't score in front, you will lose confidence the more you defend behind."

Wang Guangwei did not agree with him: "Defense is the source of offense. If you can't do a good job in defense, you keep losing the ball in the back. How do you score in the front?"

"Offense is the best defense. As long as we can score goals, everyone will have confidence. Doesn't defense get twice the result with half the effort?"

The two, a central defender and a striker, stand in their respective positions and hope that the team can improve.

Wang Guangwei spread his hands: "But now that there is no midfield commander and playmaker, how do you play offensively? You ran to the position a lot in these two games, but who can pass the football to your feet every time? ? Waters and Brother Lin are almost meaningless, and neither Leng Jinyu nor Han Xiangfei is a passer..."

Hu Lai admitted that Wang Guangwei's analysis of the team's current midfielder's ability is somewhat reasonable, but he always feels that he has missed someone?

With so many people in the midfield of Shining Star, is there really no one who can be a midfield organizer?

He suddenly thought of someone: "How is Zhang Qinghuan?"

※※※

"How is Zhang Qinghuan?"

In the Shining Star Liucheng training base, the day's recovery training had already ended, but Zhao Kangming did not leave. Instead, he discussed with assistant coach Chen Mo in his office how to solve the team's current predicament.

Qin Lin is reimbursed for the season, and the team needs someone who can take over all of Qin Lin's responsibilities and organize the offense.

And Chen Mo proposed the candidate in his mind.

Facing his proposal, Zhao Kangming did not answer, but fell into deep thought.

"I know what you are worried about, Old Zhao. But the problem is that now we have no one to use except him, why not let him try? Even if it doesn't work, it won't be worse than our current situation. Besides ...I've been observing Zhang Qinghuan all the time. I don't know if Hu Lai's appearance has stimulated him. Anyway, for more than a month, he has been quite honest, and his attitude has improved a lot during training. I haven't heard that he went to a nightclub for a while. ..." Chen Mo continued to persuade, and gave his reasons.

Zhao Kangming tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said in a deep thought: "Look again, Old Chen. Anyway, there is still a week before the next round of the league, let's observe and observe. I was really scared by that kid... "

"It's fine, no matter how cautious you are with him, you can't be too cautious." Chen Mo also felt that Lao Zhao's concerns were justified.

After all, before this, how much painstaking effort, high hopes, and tolerance did Old Zhao put into Zhang Qinghuan... What was the result? Who would have thought that Zhang Qinghuan's reward would be to enter the detention center...

After being slapped madly in the face, even Old Zhao had to speculate on this prodigal son with the greatest malice. It seems that he has really awakened recently, but who knows how long his "awakened" will last?

※※※

"How is Zhang Qinghuan?" Wang Guangwei repeated Hu Lai's interrogative sentence, and then laughed.

"That's right, Hu Lai, you haven't been in contact with him for a long time, so you are not very familiar with him. Let me tell you, when he first came to our team, he did occasionally perform well. Director Zhao is also willing to give him Opportunity. But later, this kind of opportunity became less and less... Let me think about it, how long has he not been selected for the big list? Fifteen games. Fifteen games have not been included in the big list. What does this mean? It shows that Director Zhao has completely given up on him. Since he was detained, he has completely indulged himself and intensified, as if he doesn't care whether he can play or not..."

Hu Lai frowned and said, "No, I think his training attitude seems quite normal recently."

"Then how do you know how long his normal performance can last? It's not like he didn't have this kind of time before, but after playing two games, he couldn't keep going. I sincerely advise you not to pin your hopes on Zhang Qinghuan, He is... hopeless." Wang Guangwei shook his head and sighed.

Just as Wang Guangwei finished speaking, Hu Lai suddenly heard a long-lost mechanical voice resounding in his mind:

"Mission: The prodigal son will not be exchanged for money. For the great cause of relegation, in order to complete the task of thanking Zhao's guidance, Zhang Qinghuan must be activated. Task rewards: Points x 20000, [Spirit Card] x 1, [Physical Potion] x 10."

fuck me? ! The task was actually issued by the system... No, the system actually issued the task? !

Hu Lai's consciousness quickly entered the system space, opened the mission log, and found the specific instructions for this mission.

The task itself is easy to understand, but there is nothing to say.

This is the mission reward...

Hu Lai's consciousness directly fell on the [Consonance Card].

It was a blue card with the back of a player on it. He was wearing the No. 23 jersey, his face could not be seen clearly, he had a football under his feet, and he was pointing diagonally forward with one hand, as if signaling his teammates to move.

At the same time, all the detailed information about this card flooded into Hu Lai's mind, making him immediately understand what this card is for:

[Consonance card]: There is a heart-to-heart connection. This card can be used on any teammate. After using it, the tacit understanding between the teammate and the card user will be improved. It is only valid for three consecutive games.

fuck me? And what about this thing?

If Hu Lai remembered correctly, he remembered that this was the second card given by the system so far.

The first card is [World Wave Experience Card]. He has personally experienced how awesome this orange card is.

It can be seen that the system seldom gives this kind of reward, because if it is too much, it is suspected of cheating too much, but it is very generous to various training scrolls, the price is not expensive, and you can buy it in the mall with points, which is cheaper than a hundred The [World Wave Experience Card], which can only be bought with 10,000 points, is much better.

It seems that the system also encourages Hu Lai to improve his strength through his own hard training, instead of reaching the sky in one step...

Otherwise, if he uses three [World Wave Experience Cards] every game and averages three World Wave goals per game, wouldn't he become a world-class star long ago?

Conversely, things are rare and expensive, and the system is so stingy with giving such card props, naturally because these props are powerful enough and powerful enough.

The blue card looks less handsome than the orange card, but it is more practical, after all, three games are valid. And for a striker like him who needs to rely on the support of his teammates, this card is much more useful than [World Wave Experience Card]!

Because he can improve his level through hard training, but he can't guarantee that his teammates will be willing to pass the ball to him. Of course, if he really gets to the position of boss Qin Lin, no one will dare not pass the ball to him. It's just that when he gets to that point, when will it be? It is the early stage of growth that needs this kind of support the most. To Hu Lai, having teammates willing to believe in him and take the initiative to cooperate with him when his status in the arena has not yet arrived is nothing short of rain after a long drought.

For example, when he was in the Dongchuan Middle School team, he played the first game. Because he had not proved his ability before, and because he was not popular at the time, no one was willing to pass the ball to him. Able to pass the lucky value and score a goal.

If he had this card at the time, I'm afraid it would be easier and easier to integrate into the team...

Now that he is in Flash Star, he is favored by the head coach and his teammates, so there is no need to worry too much about the problem of no one passing the ball to him. But he can't stay in Xingxing forever, can he? After going to a new environment and facing unfamiliar teammates, coaches and tactical arrangements, wouldn't this card be able to play a role?

Thinking of this, Hu Lai's eyes became hot.

※※※

Wang Guangwei saw that after he finished speaking, Hu Lai fell silent. He thought he had hit Hu Lai, so he comforted him: "Don't think about Zhang Qinghuan, anyway, he will go back after this season. Even if the team is relegated It can't affect him. In this way, it is even more impossible for him to contribute to the team's relegation... I think you are planning for the worst in the future, but in fact the situation may not be so bad. As long as we play normally and stay stable, Relegation is definitely not a problem..."

"No." Hu Lai suddenly looked up. "Just because of what he did in the past doesn't mean he can't change his shit."

Speaking of this, he said with a righteous face: "As his teammate, we can't just watch him slipping into the dark abyss and remain indifferent. Aren't we a team, a whole? Don't abandon, don't give up! The advanced drives the backward, Never give up any of the underachievers, this is the biggest reliance for Shan Xing to stay in the first class in the end!"
