Fox in the Penalty Area

After Hu Lai's goal, the leading Flash Star took advantage of the situation and launched a more violent attack on the Golden Arrow.

During this period of time, the golden arrow was only able to parry and had no power to fight back. Even if they wanted to attack Flashing Star's back with a counterattack, it would be very difficult for them to do so.

Because the flashing star's offensive was too fierce, they couldn't hold their heads up. It would be good if they could do their best to ensure that they didn't lose the ball. How could they have the spare power to fight back?

They can only use long passes to try to burn the flames of war to the opponent's half, but the overall premise of the Flash Star defense can always control the first and second landing points.

In the end, the Golden Arrow didn't even think about counterattacks at all, and shrank back, focusing on defense, at least not conceding another goal at the end of the first half...

In this way, they finally successfully defended the score of 0:1 until the end of the first half.

"The first half of the game is over! Shining Star leads Dashun Golden Arrow 1:0 at home! Anyone who watched the live broadcast of the first half of the game will probably not be surprised by this result. Flashing Star showed in its own home Terrible control..."

Under He Feng's explanation, on the TV screen, players from both sides were leaving the field.

The TV broadcast was firmly aimed at Hu Lai.

"Hu Lai was very active in this first half. Not only did he threaten the goal of the Golden Arrow many times, but he also scored a goal... that goal was a very typical Hu Lai-style goal, which fully demonstrated his sensitivity. Sense of smell and quick positioning..."

He Feng was holding back very hard, and he really wanted to explain why Hu Lai was in such a good state. But the specific content involves some evaluations of Wang Xianke. As a neutral commentator, it is difficult to say some things.

After all, Hu Lai's accusation against Wang Xianke has not yet been made public. As a commentator, it is not advisable to bring private goods during the game.

It doesn't matter if it's a commentator for a local station, but he happens to be a commentator for a national media, CCTV.

In the close-up, Hu Lai walked off the field and waved his arms to the stands, with a smug smile on his face.

When the Shining Star players happily walked back to the locker room, their head coach Zhao Kangming was already there waiting for them.

Unlike the happy players, Zhao Kangming looked serious. After the locker room door was closed,

He reminded all the players: "Don't be too happy, we just lead by one goal. Don't forget, the opponent has won the league championship. If we are not careful, we will become the laughing stock in the end... So in the second half I want to Keep putting pressure on their goal, keep pressing high and try to score early - as long as we can score one more goal, the balance of victory will fall in our favor!"

Including Hu Lai, the Flash Star players all suppressed their smiles and listened carefully to Zhao Kangming's speech.

It is not safe to lead by one goal. This is a universal truth. They don't need Zhao Kangming to emphasize, they know what they should do.

At the same time, in the shabby locker room of the visiting team, Wang Xianke was also encouraging the players.

He was uncharacteristically refraining from cursing his team's performance in the first half, even though he really wanted to.

But at the critical moment, reason still defeated impulse. He knew that in this situation, if he continued to scold the team, the Golden Arrow would collapse first without waiting for Flashing Star to do anything.

"... In the first half, we lacked courage. We were frightened by the opponent's offensive and did not dare to counterattack. This situation must be changed in the second half. Anyway, we have already conceded a goal. What is there to worry about? Don't worry. Behind us, as long as we can quickly equalize the score, the opponent's momentum will be interrupted by us!"

Having said that, he paused for a moment, then glanced around the locker room, and finally landed on a person.

"Jin Yong."

Jin Yong, whose name was called, raised his head.

"You have only one task in the second half, and that is to keep an eye on Hou Lai. No matter where he is or what he is doing, you follow him, and other people will fill the space you leave. You don't have to worry about this problem. I want you Make sure you stay close to him and don't let him get any kicks. You are physically stronger than him, use your body to your advantage."

Jin Yong nodded.

Chai Shun glanced at Jin Yong, seeing that he didn't say anything else, he was secretly relieved in his heart.

Ever since Jin Yong said that in the locker room that day, Chai Shun paid extra attention to Jin Yong's movements, for fear that he would become a ticking time bomb in the locker room.

At the end, Wang Xianke said to all the players: "The knockout round of the AFC Champions League is a two-round match. The opponent is currently only one goal ahead, which does not mean that they have an advantage. As long as we can score an away goal, we will be able to advance. Get a head start on the competition..."

He still considered the two rounds together.

As long as he can finally eliminate Flashing Star, even if there are some twists and turns in the middle, it's no big deal.

Hu Lai talked too much, which gave him a chance.

Even if Dashun Golden Arrow loses to Flash Star in this game, it ends up being defeated. But whether it is the league or the AFC Champions League, the Golden Arrow will be the home game.

As long as the Golden Arrow can defeat the flashing stars when they return to the home court, and finally eliminate their opponents and advance to the quarter-finals, it is tantamount to breaking Hu Lai's rhetoric.

So calm down and think about it carefully, Wang Xianke felt that his winning rate was higher, so there was no need to panic.

※※※

Jin Yong looked at Hu Lai who was standing in front of him, his thin body looked frail.

But he didn't dare to underestimate this person.

He knows that if he is a little negligent, the opponent may seize the opportunity to score a goal.

Although he was dissatisfied with Wang Xianke, it didn't mean that he would show mercy to Hu Lai during the game.

Soon, Flashing Star sent a cross, Jin Yong ran up with Hu Lai, and then the two jumped up at the same time, Jin Yong used his physical strength to slightly squeeze Hu Lai in the air, and then used his head to push Hu Lai forward. The football cleared out.

Hu Lai, who didn't hit the ball, looked back at Jin Yong after landing, then frowned and said, "Brother, you can't do it, you look so strong, why did you knock me away so much? Let me tell you, brother, I was in high school. When the school team coach gave me special strength training, he suddenly..."

Jin Yong didn't wait for Hu Lai to finish his sentence, and interrupted him coldly: "I've heard it."

"Huh?" Hu Lai didn't respond.

"You already told me the story of your high school coach once."

"Ha..." Hu Lai was a little surprised, "Really?"

"He knocked you five meters away, do you think I can knock you five meters away?" Jin Yong asked back.

He wanted to use this rhetorical question to make Hu Lai take care of himself, and not to use the same trick on himself again.

Unexpectedly, Hu Lai shook his head and said, "I don't think you can, big brother."

"You..." Jin Yong was annoyed, "Don't waste your time, I won't give you a chance to shoot. I only have one task in the second half, and that is to stare at you."

Hu Lai frowned and stopped talking.

Seeing that Hu Lai was speechless for the first time, Jin Yong had a smile on his face - let's see what other tricks you have!

※※※

In the next game, Hu Lai really felt how Jin Yong kept defending himself every step of the way. It was literally every step of the way.

He also tried to pull out of the penalty area, hoping that the opponent would stay where he was because he was afraid of being exploited, but Jin Arrow immediately had a player fill Jin Yong's position, so Jin Yong ran out with him.

And as a forward who is the most threatening in the penalty area, what is the use of him pulling out of the penalty area?

It's better to go back to the restricted area and confront Jin Yong...

By the way, speaking of this...

Hu Lai thought of the targeted training Lin Ge led them to do.

Because Hu Lai is thin and thin, he is not the kind of player who is good at physical confrontation. When opponents defend him, they will basically start from the confrontation, trying to defeat Hu Lai with an overwhelming physical advantage.

So Lin Ge's targeted training naturally has a lot of training in this situation.

He still remembered what Lin Ge said to himself.

Let yourself become a loach, slippery and able to drill.

※※※

Jin Yong found that Hu Lai basically stopped running outside the penalty area, and even went up against himself.

It made him feel very funny.

Like a bean sprouts, he still wants to use his body to defeat himself... How much water has been in his brain to think like this?

Jin Yong, who just verbally defeated Hu Lai, seemed to be still immersed in the joy of victory and a sense of accomplishment. He decided to stimulate Hu Lai again. If it can make his mentality collapse, then he has completed the task ahead of schedule. .

Thinking of this, he snorted: "It's brave, but stupid."

Hu Lai turned to look at him and grinned: "Who do you look down on? Brother? Let me tell you, my strength has also been specially trained by the club, and now I am not the same as before. Now, don't say I didn't remind you Ah, if you only think about using your body to deal with me, you will regret it!"

Jin Yong smiled contemptuously, and glanced at Hu Lai with the eyes of a mentally retarded person.

※※※

The flash star's fast break did not come out, and the defensive players of the Golden Arrow settled quickly. So Flash Star's attack became a positional battle.

In positional warfare, Hu Lai naturally had to turn his back to the direction of attack and look for opportunities.

He stood in the middle of the restricted area, Jin Yong stood behind him, and it was obvious that Hu Lai was competing with him.

Jin Yong sneered in his heart, are you still out of breath?

With a little effort, he noticed that Hu Lai was pushed out half a step by himself.

But soon a force came from Hu Lai's body, and the opponent seemed to try to squeeze back to regain his position.

Hehe, today I will let you see what is called "one force and ten meetings"!

Thinking of this, Jin Yong pushed forward again.

But this time, after he pushed out, he didn't feel the force feedback, but directly lost his center of gravity, and his body staggered!

The force that had been competing with him was gone!

Almost at the same time that Jin Yong came up again, Hu Lai's body suddenly turned to the side, his right shoulder sank, and Jin Yong was directly passed by.

It's now!

After Hu Laihuang drove away Jin Yong, he quickly turned around, and at the same time Chen Xingyi also sent the pass.

The two seem to have a tacit understanding that is hard for others to understand... Logically speaking, after seeing Hu Lai being entangled by Jin Yong, Chen Xingyi shouldn't just pass the football to Hu Lai, because that would probably cause him Give up the ball.

But Chen Xingyi passed it on like this.

And he didn't pass after seeing Hu Laihuang pass Jin Yong, but kicked the football into the penalty area before that.

So when Hu Lai turned around, his pass had already flown in front of Hu Lai.

It was a seamless connection, not a second was wasted.

Hu Lai puffed out his chest and unloaded the football.

Cheers erupted from the stands.

"Hu Lai... Nice escape! Opportunity!"

Mao Jun was coming from the side, trying to shovel Hu Lai, trying to interfere with him.

Hu Lai didn't seem to know anything about what was going on around him. With his head down, he now seemed to only have football in his eyes.

Looking down at the falling football, he lifted his right leg while leaning to the left.

Goalkeeper Zheng Donglin rushed forward, trying to block Hu Lai's shot angle.

When he was about to touch the football, Hu Lai's right ankle flicked out... and shot!

The football flew under Zheng Donglin's outstretched arms. Zheng Donglin waved his hand, but failed to touch the ball.

Mao Jun was shoveling over and knocked down Hu Lai who had just finished shooting.

But Hu Lai didn't even look at him, but stared at the direction of his shot.

In his eyes, after passing through Zheng Donglin, the football finally reached the finish line and was caught by the net...

"The ball-go-in!!!"

The Provincial Sports Center cheered again!
