Fox in the Penalty Area

Latest website: Hu Lai leaned forward slightly while looking back at Luo Kai who was picking up the ball.

He was riding his bicycle in the corner of the penalty area.

Once, twice.

On the third play, Luo Kai's outside instep of his right foot gently pushed the football forward!

Break into the restricted area!

The Argentine left back Ngoza who was guarding him retreated.

After Luo Kai caught up with the football, he did not continue dribbling the ball. Instead, he raised his right leg, straightened his right foot, and hit the football!

After Hu Lai saw Luo Kai draw the football, he immediately accelerated forward.

Luo Kai actually didn't pass the ball to him because it was a standard shooting kick.

However, Hu Lai still had to sprint forward, ready to deal with everything.

Sure enough, Luo Kai's shot was blocked by Ngosa who stretched out his foot. He changed his line slightly and bounced back!

Hu Lai stared at the flying football and wanted to jump up and header!

But soon a dark shadow appeared in front of his eyes...

Peralta pushed the football over the bottom line before Hulay!

Then Hu Lai felt that he was hit hard from behind, so he pushed him towards Peralta in front of him. He hit Peralta's muscular back firmly, and was brutally beaten from front to back. pincer attack.

He also tilted his head reflexively, otherwise it is very likely that what he hit was not Peralta's back, but his big elbow...

Hu Lai, who was caught in the middle, lost his balance and did not fall because of the force on both sides.

He was knocked to pieces, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that it was midfielder Dino Sosa who hit him from the side.

Hu Lai is not surprised by this, because this is the way he has been treated so far in this game.

As long as you are in the penalty area, if you want to get a kicking opportunity, it is almost like "man on top of man".

And judging from the expression on Peralta's face, he didn't even look proud because he successfully defended Hu Lai again.

Obviously very cautious.

This is not the first time he has played against Peralta, and he can even be called "very familiar". Because Peralta plays for the Madrid Kings, who are the rivals of the Madrid Pirates in the same city, and they fight against each other at least twice a year.

But Hulay still felt that Peralta was particularly difficult to deal with today.

I don’t know if it’s because today’s game is the World Cup final, but everyone performed exceptionally well.

Hu Lixin found that his wife was watching the game with a frown on her face, so he asked her curiously: "Why are you still frowning? Didn't we get a goal back?"

Xie Lan curled his lips and said: "It would be nice to get a goal back. But our son hasn't scored yet!"

Hu Lixin comforted her: "Don't worry, you will score sooner or later."

Xie Lan was a little surprised: "Hey, why didn't you say this time, 'It doesn't matter whether our son scores or not, what matters is that the team wins?"

Hu Lixin couldn't laugh or cry: "Because if the Chinese team wants to win this final, Hu Lai will definitely score!"

Xie Lan nodded with satisfaction: "Well, I like to hear that!"

But she quickly changed her face and said:

"So when will the goal be scored?"

※※※

"Isn't it a foul to hit someone?!"

The TV broadcast replayed the slow-motion scene of Hulay being double-teamed by Peralta and Dino Sousa. Someone raised such questions regarding the impact Hulay suffered just now.

"The referee didn't call it, so there should be no foul..."

"This is a deliberate collision! Black whistle!"

"Damn it! Whose home field is this?!"

Someone cursed.

"It's not a foul, but Argentina's defense against Hulay is really strict..."

Hearing those indignant comments, Yan Yan shook his head and said.

Chu Yifan said: “It feels like we can only wait until Argentina’s physical strength declines and something goes wrong in defense.

..."

Jiang Yin was a little disappointed: "Ah? How long will it take to wait?"

It's now the fifty-seventh minute of the game, not even an hour.

How could a top professional player be exhausted at this moment?

Seeing Zhang Qinghuan pick up the ball in midfield, Chen Xingyi started running forward.

Zhang Qinghuan saw Chen Xingyi's move, but he did not pass the football directly - that would have been too obvious an intention.

He chose to pass the ball to Hu Lai who pulled out of the penalty area.

Hu Lai was stuck by Peralta and couldn't turn around, but this did not prevent him from passing the ball to Chen Xingyi who was advancing from the wing, and then turned around and ran inward.

Chen Xingyi, who scored a goal, is now in good condition and full of confidence. After receiving the ball, facing the Argentine right back Osqui who was guarding him, he picked up his left foot and made a pass.

This caused Osqui to stretch his foot to block it, but his left foot pushed the football lightly and slipped under Osqui's crotch.

Then he stopped and started again, taking advantage of the change in rhythm to squeeze in from Osqui!

Osqui stretched out his hand to pull Chen Xingyi, but suddenly remembered that he was in a restricted area, and quickly raised his hands as if innocent.

"Chen Xingyi! Good shot!"

Amid huge cheers, Chen Xingyi squeezed in front of Osqui and caught up with the football.

Then, before the football is about to roll out of the baseline, kick the football towards the center!

Zhou Zijing took the lead and reached the goal. Chen Xingyi kicked an inverted triangle pass. The ball was not passed to him. But it cannot be said that Zhou Zijing's trip was in vain. His forward movement took away Argentina's back line and created a short space near the penalty spot.

Luo Kai cut across from the ribs and hit the top of the ball to meet the flying football!

However, the angle of his head was too positive, and goalkeeper Penalva chose his position accurately and took the flying football directly into his arms.

"Oops, Luo Kai's header was too right!" He Feng in the commentary box held his head in his hands and shouted regretfully.

Luo Kai was also very sorry and got up from the ground with his head in his hands.

Li Qingqing was shouting: "Hurry back and defend! Be careful of Argentina's counterattack!"

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Penalva rushing forward with the football in his arms, and then threw the ball towards the midfield with all his strength!

The most forward cantero with a top there!

At this time, most of the players of the Chinese team are in the Argentina half, and the backcourt is empty for running!

The Argentinian commentator shouted excitedly: "That's it! That's it! A counterattack by the Chinese team!"

The Chinese team quickly returned to defense.

Even Chen Xingyi was rushing back - he was going to chase Meili.

※※※

Cantero turned around and tried to catch the ball. He opened his arms to block Wang Guangwei behind him.

Then he kept on stopping the ball and wanted to use the outside instep of his left foot to pass the football diagonally behind him.

Because there's Mellie penetrating forward.

But his passing intention was too obvious, and Wang Guangwei saw through it in advance.

The moment he raised his foot to pass the ball, Wang Guangwei stretched out a kick from behind!

So the ball kicked out by Cantero hit Wang Guangwei's foot and bounced back.

"Wang Guangwei! Beautiful!"

The football fell to the feet of Zhang Qinghuan who was returning to defense.

But he couldn't turn around.

Because right behind him, Argentina's offensive midfielder Morero quickly switched from offense to defense, stuck up and pressed.

Meili has already rushed forward. If he can intercept Zhang Qinghuan's ball, he can still launch a counterattack.

Cantero also pounced on Zhang Qinghuan.

The Argentinian players used their special pressing again!

Faced with interceptions from two Argentinian players, Zhang Qinghuan passed the football back to Wang Guangwei.

When Wang Guangwei went to attack Zhang Qinghuan in Cantero, he had already widened the angle horizontally.

He easily received Zhang Qinghuan's pass.

And because Zhang Qinghuan attracted Cantero and Melli rushed behind him, there was no Argentine player around Wang Guangwei for a while.

In addition, Feisol adjusted his tactics, and the Argentine players did not strictly implement pressing tactics as before.

Seeing Wang Guangwei take the ball, more Argentine players retreated - if the counterattack can't succeed, then they should quickly defend and don't let the Chinese team counterattack.

If things continue like this, when Argentina rearranges its defense, the Chinese team will definitely have to fight a positional battle again.

But Wang Guangwei raised his head and glanced ahead, only to find that there was still an opportunity to take advantage of.

He just wanted to...want to try it once?

But if it doesn't succeed, you need to face Argentina's possible quick counterattack...

The idea only flashed in Wang Guangwei's mind for a moment before he made a decision.

What the hell, let’s do it first!

Of course, Hu Lai's running position in front also helped him make this decision - Wang Guangwei saw Hu Lai turning around and running forward.

Wang Guangwei passed the ball directly behind the Argentine defense.

After passing the ball, he called on Cai Shuyi to press forward, putting Melli in the offside position as he rushed to the front.

"Wang Guangwei takes the ball and passes it directly over the top!"

"The Chinese team launched an attack immediately! But this ball is a little anxious..."

The Argentine commentator was still regretting that the team's counterattack failed, and was worried that the Chinese team would take advantage of Argentina's offensive and defensive transition period to threaten the goal.

But when he saw the Chinese team's center back passing the football directly to the front on the center line, trying to threaten the Argentine goal with such a simple and crude method, he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Wang passed the ball too hastily! Hu didn't even get rid of our Peralta!"

Yes, when Wang Guangwei passed the ball, Hu Lai and Peralta rushed forward side by side.

Moreover, Peralta always puts Juleka on the outside, leaving himself between him and the goal. In this way, even if Juleka stops the ball, he will be grabbed and interfered by Peralta, making it difficult to shoot. Not to mention that he can also threaten the goal.

On the court, Peralta not only ran with Hulay, he also stretched out his hands to pull Hulay's body. The two people's arms kept entangled and freed, and they slapped each other.

But when Hulay ran into the penalty area, Peralta did not dare to do so. He restrained the movements of his hands and used his body to squeeze Hu Lai continuously.

Hulay felt like he was carrying a stone as he rushed towards the goal - such was the pressure Peralta put on him.

Hu Lai still had to admit that without the blessing of the system's father, this physical confrontation was indeed more difficult than before...

But...he was not looking for a reason, he was just stating a fact.

The fact is that Peralta exerted a lot of force on him, making it harder than before to get a chance to shoot, that's all.

There are always many difficult things in this world. Just like now, it will be difficult for him, who is the target of public criticism, to score a goal in the World Cup final.

But it’s difficult, why don’t you just do it?

With Peralta's weight on him, Hulay quickly glanced back at the flying football.

It's almost here!

Peralta also saw this. He bumped towards Hulay harder and put his shoulder on Hulay's shoulder, trying to squeeze him away.

But this time he didn't succeed!

Because when Hu Lai was running, his body had tilted slightly inward, forming a triangle with him!

He stabilized his figure with this!

Then he raised his left foot and whipped the football that flew in front of him directly towards Argentina's goal!

No stopping, no adjustment, no hesitation, just a direct kick!

Bang!

Penalva, who had blocked the shooting angle, felt like his eyes were blurred!

He reflexively raised his right hand

My hand touched nothing.

Then I heard deafening cheers coming from the stands where die-hard Chinese fans gathered behind me!

He was shocked, already knowing the result of this shot...

At the same time, he caught a glimpse of Hu Lai running towards the corner flag area with open arms.

"Hu Lai! Hu Lai!! Hu Lai——!! The fairy ball! This is a fairy ball!!"
