Fox in the Penalty Area

The Alvara fans in the stands cheered eagerly when Eli broke the ball off Pete Williams.

Immediately afterwards, Junpei Morikawa snatched the ball back again, and the Alvara fans were not too disappointed.

After all, their defense is still intact, and it is still difficult for Leeds City to get a decent chance.

Do not believe?

You see, the players in Leeds City are forced to do nothing, they can only shoot long shots outside!

This shows that our defense is very successful... Huh? !

"what!!!"

Seeing goalkeeper Ze Ferreira throw the ball away and Hou Lai had already reached him, the Alvara fans who were still confident just now screamed.

Someone was shouting: "Offside! He's offside!!"

But nothing will change.

The football was kicked into Alvara's goal by Hou Lai!

Some Alvara players signaled to the referee that Hu Lai was offside, and Hu Lai ran to celebrate regardless.

Judging from the replay of the goal that followed, at the moment Kamara shot, Hou Lai was still in front of the line between Bruno Pinto and Matthew Kefir, and he was not offside!

After seeing Kamara shoot, he suddenly went forward and came out from behind Pinto.

"No problem with the ball! Clean and beautiful!" Cox cheered happily.

"3:1!! When Leeds City was in danger again, Hu used his best way to help the team out of the crisis! Ladies and gentlemen! What is the best defense? This is it! There is nothing like using Goals to crush opponents and expand the lead again, better way to defend!"

He Feng also praised Hu Lai's goal, and he was not stingy with compliments: "It seems that Hu Lai just picked up a leak in front of the goal. But if it wasn't for Hu Lai's unscrupulous movement and opposition in this attack The precise grasp of timing, when Ferreira let go, how could he run to the football? It seems that Hu Lai is very lucky, but chances only favor those who are prepared not to give up! So this ball is not only technical Low, on the contrary, fully embodies Hu Lai's core technology!"

"Is the ball not offside?!" Valente turned his head and stared at Xia Xiaoyu and asked.

Xia Xiaoyu shook his head with a complicated expression and answered him: "No offside, our back line didn't keep a close eye on people..."

Valente knew that Xia Xiaoyu would not lie to him, so he let out a long sigh and said dejectedly: "It's over...the momentum has finally picked up, and now this conceded goal is simply a fatal blow!"

Xia Xiaoyu didn't know how to comfort him, or indeed she couldn't.

Because what Valente said was right, seeing Alvara's aura just now, he was almost on the verge of achieving it. At that time, Alvara might really be able to equalize the score, or even win the game.

But at such a critical moment, Leeds City's goal is like a punch in your dantian when you are about to lift your breath.

The "Qi" that I had finally remembered all dissipated, and I was also backlashed.

As a former teammate of Hu Ge, he is too aware of the fatality of Hu Ge scoring at such a critical moment.

Brother Hu is a player with a strong ability to seize opportunities. His scoring efficiency allows the team that owns him to acquire such an ability invisibly-that is, the goals come in a timely manner...

When I was a teammate in the past, I would only applaud Hu Ge for this kind of goal.

Now I can only swallow the bitter fruit silently——It is really an uncomfortable thing to be an enemy of Brother Hu!

Valente and Xia Xiaoyu's feelings were correct. Alvara's coach Moya was stunned on the spot after seeing Hu Lai's goal.

Because he knew in his heart how terrible this ball was!

The morale of the whole team dropped almost at a speed visible to the naked eye-although there was no status bar above the players' heads, Moya could feel it.

Hou Lai scored in the 72nd minute.

The timing is also deadly.

It is a watershed for players' physical fitness.

Generally, at this time of the game, everyone's physical fitness will enter the bottleneck, and the fuel will run out. At times like this, they often grit their teeth and persist.

As a result, they are now hit by conceding the ball... It is easy for people to relax when they have little physical strength left, but now they are given a reason for "reasonable relaxation"-not that we don't want to work hard, but fate ...too cruel!

This kind of physical and mental devastation is especially easy to cause the team to collapse.

Originally only one goal away, even if they were physically exhausted, Alvara's players could still grit their teeth and persevere. As long as they can equalize the score before the game and get a draw, the second round can be regarded as starting from scratch, and they also have a 50% chance of advancing to the top 16.

Now... behind by two goals, there are still 20 minutes left in the game, and his physical fitness has reached a bottleneck. When Alvara's players thought that they had to chase two goals in a row to get a tie under such circumstances... It was almost as if they were dying, and they gave up half of their energy.

Ricardo Moya is just a football coach, not an omniscient god.

Facing this conceded goal, he was also a little helpless and didn't know what to do.

As the Leeds City players raced and celebrated across the pitch in front of him, he stood there, expressionless, like a statue.

The TV broadcast also specially gave Moya a close-up shot at this time. Seeing the head coach Alvara with a blank expression in the shot, the British commentator Matthew Cox asserted: "Hu's second ball almost destroyed The suspense of the outcome of this game! Leeds City will get their first victory in the Europa League in history!"

The broadcast camera quickly cut to Hu Lai, who was running back to his own half with his teammates.

There was still a smile on his face in the camera, and under his smile, the broadcaster typed the subtitles:

Europa League

one game, two goals

"Hu scored five goals in only five group games in the Champions League this season, averaging one goal per game, which is considered efficient. Now the efficient shooter in the Champions League has come to the Europa League, continuing the same efficient performance, what surprises will he continue to bring us in the Europa League?"

Matthew Cox said expectantly.

After the game restarted, the Alvara players whose morale was seriously damaged were very passive on the court, and their active mistakes increased significantly.

It wasn't just the team that took a hit on morale, but also the Alvara fans in the stands.

Both singing and cheering shouts are much smaller than before.

Many Alvara fans were watching the game going on in the stadium, their eyes were lost, as if they had lost all their strength, and they couldn't open their mouths or raise their hands at all.

No singing, no shouting, no clapping and waving of scarves.

They are just a group of wooden stakes standing silently in the stands.

The wooden stakes watched the stadium silently, and the Lisbon Arena was quiet for the first time in this game.

In Leeds City's opening scoring, it has not been so quiet here.

When Leeds City led by two goals in the first half, harsh boos and unwilling roars could still be heard here.

Leeds City, which has already led by two goals on the field, is still attacking.

It stands to reason that when they attacked, the space left behind was a good opportunity for Alvara to use it to counterattack.

But in fact, Alvara's players are no longer able to accurately send the football to the feet of players like Lesignho in the frontcourt.

On the contrary, the defense line that they tried their best to maintain seemed to be crumbling. It seemed that 1:3 was not the end of the score, and they might lose the ball again.

This really makes Alvara fans feel desperate.

Finally, ten minutes before the end of the game, the camera caught Alvara's fans in the stands and began to leave the field one after another.

"Let's go too, Xia...Let's go now, there will be less traffic jam on the road." Valente, who came by car, said to Xia Xiaoyu.

Xia Xiaoyu originally wanted to stay and watch the game, but at this moment, he saw the fourth official on the sidelines holding up a sign for Leeds City to make a substitution.

Charlie Potter was to be replaced, and it was Hou Lai who was replaced.

So he nodded: "Okay, let's go, Joao."

At the exit of the stand, Xia Xiaoyu turned his head and glanced at Brother Hu who was walking towards the field for the last time. He walked leisurely, just like before.

It looked like he was exhausted, but Xia Xiaoyu knew very well that Brother Hu was deliberately delaying time.

Obviously already leading by two goals, but still adopting this method...

Xia Xiaoyu laughed, and he shook his head.

Brother Hu is still that Brother Hu, he will never forget his original aspirations, and he has nothing to say...

The Alvara fans in the stands who were in a bad mood because of the loss naturally couldn't have a good attitude towards Hu Lai's approach. They booed deafeningly and vented all their anger about the loss on Hu Lai.

The emotions that had been holding back for the entire game finally found something to land on.

It's him!

It's this damn guy!

Not only did he score two dollars in the game, he beat us!

Deliberately delaying time while being replaced!

Brothers, go!

Boo him!

Amidst the boos, Hu Lai even stopped and raised his arms to applaud the fans in the stands.

It is completely unaffected, and even has a bit of a posture of wanting to turn against customers...

Valente stopped when he heard the boos, and looked back to see this scene, very speechless.

And Xia Xiaoyu tugged at him: "Let's go."

The two players from the reserve team left quietly, booing loudly behind them.
