Fox in the Penalty Area

Hou Lai's hat-trick in the 84th minute basically declared the end of the game's suspense.

The morale was high before, and the South China Sea team, which stormed the Xingxing penalty area, was discouraged after this conceded goal.

After the game restarted, their offense could no longer play the same momentum as before.

Luo Kai is still active, but at this time his activeness is only impatience, frequent mistakes and yelling after losing the ball.

He was not reconciled, but could only be helplessly furious.

Shining Star used the midfield configuration of Qin Lin and Zhang Qinghuan to firmly control the midfield and the rhythm of the game.

In the remaining minutes, they played more conservatively and cautiously, trying to control the ball to their side.

The Nanhai team gradually lost their temper.

Although this will be their first defeat this season, it stands to reason that they should be very unwilling.

But in the face of very little game time and a difference of two goals, even if you are not reconciled, what can you do?

Luo Kai was very unwilling, but did his unwillingness bring anything?

Only self-disruption.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, there were deafening cheers from the audience.

Hu Lai and his teammates embraced to celebrate the victory.

The commentator of Anton Satellite TV said excitedly: "The game is over! The game is over! After a fierce and exciting game, Shining Star defeated the Chinese League leader Lingnan Nanhai team 4:2 at home! And tied the score in points Nanhai team! Now both teams have 31 points, and Shining Star has surpassed Nanhai team by virtue of its goal difference advantage, ranking first!"

Shen Lang of Tengfei Video paid more attention to Hu Lai's personal performance: "The best player in this game - Hu Lai! Well deserved! Although Chen Xingyi, Luo Kai, even Wang Guangwei and Zhang Qinghuan, they all performed well in the game, But no one can match Hu Lai's contribution to the victory of the Flash Star. Hu Lai's performance in this game has made him a top player in the Chinese League. I think continuing to play in the Chinese League will improve him Not much, this should be his last season in the Chinese League One, next season he should go to the Chinese Super League! It would be good if Flashing Star can go to the Chinese Super League together, if not, then he should bravely jump out of his comfort zone... ..."

The broadcast camera followed Hu Lai all the time, showing him a close-up.

It didn't cut out for 20 seconds, and the broadcaster of the game was also using this method to remind all the audience who is the best player in this game and who is the top star.

Although there were other people who performed brilliantly in the competition, such as Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai, they all became Hu Lai's foil in the end, the green leaves under this big red flower, and their performance was just to set off How delicate and beautiful this flower is.

"After the outstanding performance in the first season, I believe many people are worried whether Hu Lai will hit the so-called 'rookie wall', and whether his performance will decline as the opponents pay more attention to him... ...But now seeing his performance after returning from the East Asian Cup, I believe many people will not feel that there is a so-called 'rookie wall' in front of Hu Lai, right?" Anton Satellite TV commentator is one of the happiest people , The better Hu Lai's performance in the second season, the more it means that Flash Star has a greater hope of surpassing this season.

"Last season, he scored 11 goals in 15 games. This season, he only played 11 league games, and he has already scored 13 goals. If he continues like this... Maybe he really has the hope of becoming a Where is the top scorer in the Chinese League One?"

The guest Lu Guanlin said next to him: "That would be great. He will be the first Chinese player to win the Chinese League One Golden Boot in the past ten seasons!"

"That kind of future is unbelievable..." The commentator said with emotion, "Only one year has passed. Last July he transferred to our Flash Star, and this July he already has the opportunity to win the league's golden boot... ..."

"If you think about how he was only a sophomore in high school two years ago, you will find it even more unbelievable.

what! "Lu Guanlin laughed.

※※※

At the post-match press conference, Hu Lai also became the most concerned person of the reporters.

Both Pan Hongwei and Zhao Kangming commented on Hu Lai's performance in this game at the request of the reporters.

Zhao Kangming naturally still boasted, but as Hu Lai's head coach, he couldn't boast much.

Pan Hongwei's praise of Hu Lai, who was still his opponent, was more interesting.

He said: "There were a few moments in the game where I thought we could win, and I still think so. As long as there is no goal from Hu Lai, we will definitely win. If Flash Star does not have Hu Lai, this game The game will be played differently, and we will win in the end. But Hu Lai... Yes, I ignored this person for most of the game, and I put all my attention on Chen Xingyi, I thought he was the biggest threat to our defense. But it turns out... I was wrong. Don't think that because Hu Lai didn't show much in the previous game, he doesn't need to be watched..."

At the end, Pan Hongwei shook his head again and again.

"I want to congratulate the Flashes, they beat us at home. I especially want to congratulate Hou Lai, he played a beautiful game, I think this is his best game so far this season. Because The opponent is us."

The old man seemed very unconvinced by the loss, but he was convinced by Hu Lai.

What does Hu Lai think of his performance in this game?

In an interview with the media after the game, he revealed a little "secret" in the locker room: "I asked Director Zhao during the intermission if I had any special tasks, and Director Zhao said let me play normally. So I played normally."

He spread his hands, so many people wanted to beat him after seeing it...

※※※

"Middle class 'Tianwangshan', Hu Lai's hat-trick is a big hit!"

When Guan Xinyan saw the news, he was a little panicked.

Because he remembered that after the East Asian Cup, he had to compete with Hu Lai who scored more goals in the league...

But now, Hu Lai has ranked first in the top scorer list with thirteen league goals, and his number of goals in the Super League...

Only one.

Although neither the Chinese Premier League nor the Chinese Super League is far from over, this gap means that Guan Xinyan will score goals in every round of the next Chinese Super League, and at the same time, he must stop Hu Lai from scoring again... But how can that be possible?

If he can really perform like this... let alone the National Olympics, he can be the main striker for the national team!

He thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand why he had to compete with Hu Lai.

I am stupid! It must be easier to score goals in the Chinese Premier League than in the Chinese Super League!

He now feels that the only thing to be thankful for is that he didn't tell anyone about it, otherwise he might become a laughing stock in the eyes of others.

He decided not to care about that Hu Lai anymore, no matter how many goals he scored in the Chinese Premier League.

Let's pretend it never happened before.

Anyway, no matter how many goals he scored in the Chinese Premier League, it will not affect my selection to the Olympic team. Hu Lai is not the only striker of the Olympic team...

"Xiao Shi, did you watch the match between the Chinese Superstars and the South China Sea at home yesterday?"

Li Zhifei walked into Shi Wuyin's office and asked.

"How could I not have watched it, Lao Li? My blood was so excited after watching it, I almost wanted to return to the game!" Shi Wuyin said with a smile.

"The commentator said it well. If you want to know what the future of Chinese football looks like, you should watch this game. Let's not talk about Hu Lai, except for him..."

Shi Wuyin interrupted Li Zhifei: "Hey, why didn't Hu Lai say it? He is the best player in the game, a hat-trick!"

"Because I think this is just a normal performance for him. And Hu Lai is not the key person we observe. We should focus on the two young people Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai. They will definitely have their share in next year's U23 Asian Cup. It will be our home game, and it will be unreasonable if we can't produce results!" Li Zhifei said.

Shi Wuyin nodded: "You're right, Lao Li. When Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai were training before the East Asian Cup at the beginning of the year, we didn't recruit them because we felt that they lacked competition training and could not prove their abilities. From the looks of it now, one is in Shining Star and the other is in South China Sea, both of them are doing well. The National Olympic team will have a few warm-up matches in the second half of the year, so I plan to recruit them to observe..."

"But there are two questions." Li Zhifei said, "The first question, how do you plan to deal with the fact that Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai have similar playing styles and overlapping positions?"

"This game gave me a little inspiration, Lao Li. Why can't we change to a three-forward formation? Hu Lai is in the middle, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai are on the left and right. Hu Lai doesn't need the ball, so it doesn't matter. There is no possibility of conflict with the other two. Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai are separated by Hu Lai on both sides of the court, and they are responsible for half of the court. They can also cross positions and play on both sides. In this way Come on, our two sidewalks have really achieved flying with both wings..."

Shi Wuyin casually tore a piece of paper from the table, and drew while talking on the back.

"Then who is the core of the attack?" Li Zhifei asked.

"Of course it's Hu Lai. No matter how the two of them kick, they still play around Hu Lai, with Hu Lai in the middle." Shi Wuyin continued to draw, "We don't need Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai to be the core, and they can't do it either. They It just needs to play normally, whether they choose to shoot by themselves or pass to the other two forward teammates, it doesn’t matter, it all depends on the actual needs of the three of them on the field. Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai have the ball Ability plus Hu Lai's off-the-ball ability, now, our team will not have the problem of walking with a limp."

Before the Olympic team, Guan Xinyan scored a point, and Guan Xinyan was also a left-footed player who likes to cut in on the right. Therefore, the Olympic team's offense was considered by the media to be walking with a limp.

Li Zhifei looked at the schematic diagram of running and passing routes drawn by Shi Wuyin on the paper, pondered for two seconds and then nodded: "I think it's feasible. Guo Junfu divides the ball in the middle, and he has three delivery points at once." , no matter which side we play, we can create a threat. Moreover, Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai can switch positions with each other, making it even more difficult for the opponent to defend. Even if the opponent strictly restricts them from entering the penalty area, they can also pass from the side to let the middle Hu Lai, come grab some... not bad not bad!"

Hearing that his partner agreed with his idea, Shi Wuyin laughed: "Then what is another question, Lao Li?"

Li Zhifei froze for a moment, then waved his hand with a strange expression: "Uh, it's not a problem now."

"Huh?" Shi Wuyin became curious, "What's the problem?"

"That's right... I was going to ask you before, you recruited Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi into the team, what about Guan Xinyan? But after thinking about your tactics carefully, I feel that there is really no one in the lineup. Guan Xinyan's position is now..."

It was only then that Shi Wuyin realized that he had forgotten the number one forward of the National Youth Team and the National Olympic Team.

But how could he admit that he had forgotten Guan Xinyan? So he waved his hand: "There is no conflict, Lao Li. It is impossible for our lineup to fix these three people. In case someone is injured or is not in good condition, no matter how bad the game is, we have to replace them to rest. So Guan Xinyan still We need to recruit him, let him adapt to this new tactic after he comes in, as a supplement to Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi..."

Li Zhifei sneered, "Xiao Shi, you are just wishful thinking."

"how?"

"Do you think Guan Xinyan, who has always been the core player in the national youth, national youth and Olympic teams at all levels, can accept the new position? Not to mention that the current tactics are not his best and favorite style of play."

Shi Wuyin thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "If you don't accept it, you have to accept it. The team is not his family. Can you follow his preferences? I said before that the East Asian Cup will not recruit him, let him work hard in the club." Prepare for the new season. He also agreed at the time. As a result, have you seen his performance in the club now? Compared with last season, it is far worse... Now I think he may really believe the rumors in the East Asian Cup."

Li Zhifei didn't speak, but nodded.

In his heart, he agrees with Shi Wuyin's views, even more extreme - he believes that the Olympic team is of course to gather the best young people in the country at present. The team is meaningless. If you do not perform well, cannot keep up with the team's requirements, and refuse to take the initiative to change, then sorry, the Olympic team has no place for you.

After all, next year's U23 Asian Cup will be under great pressure for both Shi Wuyin and Li Zhifei.

Eight years have passed since the vigorous reform of Chinese football in 2015, and the national football competition for middle school students has also been held for nine times. Outstanding players such as Hu Lai, Luo Kai, Chen Xingyi, and Wang Guangwei have emerged. Young players, they are a good supplement to the talents cultivated by the original professional echelon.

Now that talents have been produced, whether it is ordinary fans, media reporters, or the leaders above, of course they all want to see some achievements.

Not to mention the too distant goal of winning the international competition, at least to be able to enter the world competition, right?

We made it to the World Junior Championships, but not to the World Youth Championships, so the most watched Olympic Games should not be missed.

This time Shi Wuyin led the U22 training team to win the East Asian Cup. On the one hand, he continued to win the trust of the leaders. On the other hand, it also raised everyone's expectations for this team, and the pressure was even greater.

If he can't participate in the Madrid Olympics next year, then both he and Shi Wuyin will have to leave get out of class.

The future fate of these young people is hard to say...

After all, they need to show themselves on the stage of international competitions. They need to gain confidence, increase experience, and provide more opportunities for future growth by participating in the Olympics.

In the face of such a goal, personal small emotions and small thoughts are meaningless. Li Zhifei hopes that Guan Xinyan can put his mentality in order, and don't think that the Olympic team will step on the brakes for him alone.

Everyone was running fast, and those who couldn't keep up had to be dropped farther and farther and completely eliminated.

Having been Guan Xinyan's coach for the past two years, he still doesn't want such a fate to really befall this young man...

But he didn't say anything about it.
