Fox in the Penalty Area

Da Chu, we got the tickets, the four of us... And the good news this time, I bought tickets for the away team area! "In the dormitory, a person raised his mobile phone, leaned out from the bed, and shouted to Chu Yifan below.

"Awesome!" Chu Yifan turned around and gave him a thumbs up.

The remaining two people also sat up from the bed after hearing the words: "Now we don't have to worry about it!"

"It's just the ticket price... Each ticket is one hundred and five more..." The roommate in charge of buying the tickets said a little embarrassed.

"So expensive?" Someone exclaimed.

"Nonsense! This match is a life-and-death battle for Shining Star. If they lose, they will really have to fight to the death... That's why I heard that many Shining Star fans came here from Jincheng for this game. The visiting team The more fans come, the less tickets can be sold out, of course the ticket dealers have to sit on the ground and raise the price." The roommate in charge of buying tickets explained.

"You bought it from a scalper?"

"Or else!"

Chu Yifan waved his hand: "One hundred and fifty is one hundred and fifty, I will pay for this much money!"

The three people in the dormitory looked at him together: "When did you become so generous, Dachu?"

"After all, it's to support my junior." Chu Yifan said.

"Boss is grand!" The three of them gave Chu Yifan a thumbs up.

"But the current situation of Shining Star is not good... In case of relegation, the head coach Zhao Kangming who likes Hu Lai leaves, what will happen to Hu Lai?"

After buying the tickets, the stone in everyone's heart fell to the ground, and they wanted to talk about the game itself.

"I think with Hu Lai's performance this season, it's hard to say in the Chinese Super League, but you can go to any team in the Chinese Super League, right? If Flash Star is really relegated, he will transfer. I just don't know what he did with In the contract signed by Xingxing, there is a clause of reinstating freedom if he is not relegated... It is said that Qin Lin has it."

"That's what I said, but with Hu Lai's style of play, he still has to go to a head coach who trusts him in order to maximize his strength... Of course, it is best not to be relegated. If Zhao Kangming stays, Hu Lai will not be relegated." If I stay, I still look forward to the stars of next season..."

"It's not easy to play in South China Sea this time, and it's an away game. I think it's good for Shining Star to draw with their opponents in the away game. One point can guarantee that they will still be in the 14th place. Next, they will return to the home court to play Yunshan Caiyun. Talk to number sixteen,

As long as they can win, it is regarded as an early relegation. With Shining Star's strength, this fight against Yunshan Caiyun will not be a problem, right? So just don't lose this game... Besides, isn't it all reported in the news? Zhang Qinghuan is about to make a comeback, and Flash Star's midfield organization ability will also improve..."

"Oh, don't mention Zhang Qinghuan. Don't count Zhang Qinghuan as a Flash Star player in this kind of life-and-death battle. I heard that Zhang Qinghuan's loan contract to Flash Star stipulates that Flash Star can decide whether to buy out after the end of this season. His, do you think Zhang Qinghuan is willing to stay in the Chinese A team? He won't work so hard in the game, what if he performs well and is spotted by Flash Star?"

"What time is this, and he still thinks about this? If he doesn't come up with something, will he be able to play in the Chinese Super League when he returns to Tenglong? I'm afraid he will continue to rent out?"

"I don't care about it. After returning to the capital, the 'King of Worker's Sports' can be regarded as returning home. Do you really think Zhang Qinghuan has any ambitions? Let me tell you, this person is completely useless."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Chu Yifan sighed, and said softly, "At the beginning, I still regarded Zhang Qinghuan as an idol...I imagined that I could become a midfielder like him..."

"Hey Da Chu, although you can't become a midfielder like Zhang Qinghuan, you still have a chance to become a little nightclub prince like Zhang Qinghuan!" The roommates joked about Chu Yifan.

"roll roll roll!"

Everyone's guess that Flash Star's away game can draw Lingnan Nanhai seems to be correct.

This is not difficult to see from Zhao Kangming's roster of 18 people who are more defensive players.

He does seem to want stability on the road.

But when Flash Star announced their starting lineup two hours before the game, the outside world was taken aback.

Because Zhang Qinghuan, who had just returned from injury for about ten days, appeared on this list.

He starts!

This makes commentators, media reporters and fans a little confused.

If stability is required, why should Zhang Qinghuan start?

He's not good at defense...

Could it be that Zhao Kangming didn't want to seek stability at all, but wanted to pursue a victory in the away game?

However, Anton Shining Star's players were not surprised by the head coach's arrangement at all.

In other words, if there was an accident, it would have happened during midweek training.

At that time, when Zhao Kangming chose eleven players for offensive routine training for the next game, he chose Zhang Qinghuan.

While Zhang Qinghuan himself was surprised, he also surprised other teammates.

At that time, Zhao Kangming did not explain why he made such an arrangement.

Everyone quickly found the answer from the actual training.

After Zhang Qinghuan sat in the midfield, he and Hu Lai immediately formed a connection, and the two seemed to have an innate chemical reaction.

The passing and running cooperation is very tacit.

During training, Zhang Qinghuan's explosive power has indeed dropped significantly, making it difficult for him to run long distances with the ball. However, he can use his excellent foot skills and judgment on the reaction of defensive players to pass opponents, and then send the football to the opponent. Go to the most dangerous places.

Although the days of indulgence have destroyed his physical qualities to varying degrees, such as explosive power and physical fitness, they are not as good as before.

But thankfully, his brain hasn't been eroded by the alcohol. He can see the gaps and he can send the football into the gaps.

As long as he still has this ability, even if he can't run fast, it doesn't matter.

How else can we say that Zhang Qinghuan is a super genius?

Before this, he practiced honestly for a month, and after returning from injury, he devoted himself to training and quickly conquered all his teammates during training.

To be honest, when such a genius is no longer proud of his talent, there will still be many people willing to get in touch with him.

When Zhang Qinghuan first came to the team, everyone welcomed him.

If it hadn't been discovered later that this kid's eyes were higher than the top, everyone would look down on him, and everyone's relationship with him would not be so rigid.

But now...of course there is no such problem.

Chu Yifan and his three roommates appeared in the stands of Lingnan City Olympic Sports Center, which is not too far from their school.

But they still came to the Olympic Sports Center early, had a simple dinner outside, and followed the crowd into the stadium.

Although there are already two Chinese Super League teams in Lingnan City, Nanhai, as a Chinese Premier League team, still has many fans in this international metropolis. After all, they have taken root in this city for many years. When it comes to the community culture of football, they may be more representative of the community culture of the city of Lingnan than Poseidon and South China Tigers.

So although the Olympic Sports Center can accommodate up to 80,000 people, this game still attracted 40,000 fans.

It is very rare for a Chinese League One game to attract so many fans to watch the game live.

Of course, this also has something to do with Nanhai's competition for the qualification to surpass - so far, Lingnan Nanhai is ranked fourth, four points away from the second place in Chuannan Chongshan, and two points away from the third place in Jingyang Shengjing.

With three rounds left in the league, they are also very hopeful to compete for the top two.

As long as you can get the second place, you can qualify for the Super League.

At that time, Lingnan City will become the first city in Chinese football history to have three top league teams.

If there is such a day, it will be the glory of the entire Lingnan football, and it will not only belong to a certain club.

That's why so many people came to cheer for the South China Sea team in today's game. Maybe there are fans of the South China Tigers and Sea Gods...

"It's really lively..." Chu Yifan and his roommates looked at the scene in front of them and said with emotion.

The Olympic Sports Center, which can accommodate 80,000 people, is not full, but it is not empty either. It has to be said that Lingnan fans are very good at creating a home atmosphere.

The Nanhai fans in the advanced stadium have already prepared the giant TIFO.

This is a huge portrait of ocean waves. The blue waves and white waves are exactly the color of the South China Sea team's home jersey. On this background, there is a red calligraphic font: "Big waves! Big waves in the South China Sea!"

"Fuck, is it exaggerating?" Chu Yifan's roommates stood in the stands, watching this scene, all stunned.

"This is the Chinese Premier League, not the Chinese Super League..."

"If they win this game, they will have a chance to become a Chinese Super League team," Chu Yifan said.

The roommates turned their heads to look at the stands of the stadium, and murmured: "I used to think that it would be good for Shining Star to draw an away game with their opponents, but now I think it's better to lose less than win..."

"In fact, even losing is not the worst result. Kunyang won the ball and the points are only the same as Flash Star, and the goal difference is less than Flash Star. Flash Star will still be ranked fourteenth. Next When Samsun returns to play Yunshan Caiyun at home, I don't believe that Shining Star can still lose!"

After eating, Hu Lixin wanted to wash the dishes, but was stopped by Xie Lan: "I'll come, you go and turn on the TV, my son's game is about to start."

Hu Lixin usually washes the dishes, but he knows why his wife washes the dishes for him this time.

She didn't want to miss a minute of her son's game, especially as the season was coming to an end and there was one less game to watch.

Hu Lixin didn't object to this arrangement, but he still sent all the dishes in his hand to the kitchen: "I'll bring them in for you."

"Oh, I don't need you...you go and turn on the TV, that broken TV has commercials on it! If you wait any longer, after you tune it in, maybe the game will start!" Xie Lan put his arm on him. Rolled out the kitchen.

Hu Lixin had no choice but to go to the bedroom and turn on the TV.

My wife is right. Their TV is an Internet TV brand known for its cost-effectiveness. I bought it because it was cheap.

It’s just that there will be a stinky and long advertisement every time I turn it on...

Usually it's okay, but if I'm in a hurry to watch Hu Lai's game, my wife will be very dissatisfied with this TV that has advertisements on the start.

When Xie Lan washed all the dishes, chopsticks, pots and pans at an extremely fast speed, and walked to the bedroom while wiping his hands, he saw her husband picking up the cigarette case on the coffee table.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Xingxing lost the ball." Hu Lixin shook out a cigarette and lit it for himself.

Xie Lan hurriedly walked to the TV. Sure enough, the players of the Lingnan Nanhai team were celebrating on the TV.

"It's only been a few minutes..." Xie Lan complained.

Then she remembered what the media had said about the significance of this game to Shining Star, and exclaimed: "Then Shining Star is about to be relegated?"

Hu Lixin frowned and said, "The game has only started for four minutes. Besides, even if you lose this game, you won't necessarily be relegated."

"Why?" Shane asked.

Hu Lixin, who was in a bad mood, didn't bother to explain the twists and turns to his wife. He just said: "Let's see first, the game has just begun, and there is still a chance for Shining Star to win back."

"Oh..." Xie Lan obediently sat next to her husband and watched the game with him.
