Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 1862 Barcelona Derby

As soon as Moritz Reiden got out of the car in the parking lot, he was stopped by head coach Leroy Kuhn, who also just got out of the car.

"Moritz, did you watch the game between the Pirates and Turias last night?"

Rui and others replied: "Of course I saw that Hu scored again, and once he scored, there were two goals."

Kuhn spread his hands: "Look, Moritz, as I said, Hu is a person who can never be deduced with common sense. Everyone thought he was in a quagmire, but he scored twice in this game Of course, what is more noteworthy is that in this game, Parotti changed his tactics, and he seems not to be obsessed with strengthening defense."

Moritz Reiden nodded: "Well, he strengthened the team's offense..."

"So when we play against us in the middle of the week, he should also continue this tactical play. And there is a great possibility that Hu will score goals."

What Kuhn said was still the previous point of view, but this time Reiden could no longer raise any different opinions.

Because Hu Lai's performance in La Liga yesterday was witnessed by him.

In the match between the Madrid Pirates and Turias, Houlai scored twice to help the team beat the opponent with a score of 2:1 and scored a very critical three-pointer on the way to the championship.

At the same time, Hou Lai also scored his fifty-eighth and fifty-ninth goals in the league this season.

It is only one goal away from the record of 60 league goals in a single season he created last season.

This shows that Hu Lai's recent state has been restored.

So in the next UEFA Champions League semi-final against the Ruhr Rhein, as long as the Madrid Pirates can stick to their current style of play, Hu Lai has a great chance of scoring.

If according to Reiden's own ideas before, Ruhrlein went to the away game to face the indiscriminate bombing of the Madrid Pirates and shrink back to play a defensive counterattack, and when he met Hu Lai who was in excellent form, there was indeed a high possibility of conceding the ball.

Conceding the ball is actually okay, the key is that if the bus is placed, it will be difficult for Ruhr Rhine to score.

So for now, Kuhn's strategy is correct. The ability to consistently attack and threaten the Madrid Pirates' goal with high pressing and counter attacking.

Only in this way can one's goal be truly safe.

"And the victory of the Madrid Pirates in this game and Hu's goal can save us a lot of saliva reminding the players not to be proud and underestimate the enemy."

Kuhn continued.

It can be seen that he is very satisfied with the result and process of yesterday's game.

Riden agreed: "That's right. In addition, the facts prove that if the Pirates attack with all their strength, their defense is problematic. Facing a team like Turias, they can lose the ball. Then facing our Egypt Deman and Seth, they are even more unstoppable."

"The most important thing is that they may not think that we will play against them at home." Kuhn laughed.

The pair chatted and laughed as they made their way to their offices, ready to start a new day at work ahead of next Wednesday's Champions League semi-final second leg.

"The Pirates still won..."

"So what? It is unrealistic to expect that Turias, who is the last in the league, can hold them back. Now we have the advantage. As long as we can beat Sarria today, the league championship will be stable."

"Yes, the initiative is still in our hands. Don't worry about what others do."

"Has Hu recovered?"

"Never mind him. So what if he recovers? We won't be able to meet him anyway..."

"The Champions League final..."

"Whether the Pirates can reach the Champions League final is still open to debate..."

…

At breakfast time, the Catalan players chattered in the cafeteria.

The topic of discussion was naturally yesterday's match between the Madrid Pirates and Turias.

At the same time, in the breakfast room of another hotel about five kilometers away from them in a straight line, Saria's players were discussing relegation.

"Getafe 1326 even drew with Sporting Oviedo..."

"Isn't this a good thing? We have a chance to successfully avoid relegation!"

"Then at least we can't lose to Cathay United..."

"Hey, do you think the Catalan United think they can definitely beat us at home?"

"Isn't it good to think so? I even wish they looked down on us more..."

…

Zhang Qinghuan just listened to everyone's discussion, but did not participate in it.

His silence was noticed by teammate Carlos Torrado, who leaned over and asked, "What are you thinking, brother Huan?"

Zhang Qinghuan said: "I'm thinking, we really have a day to decide the La Liga title... Yesterday the Pirates beat Turias, if we lost to Cathay United today, maybe we can still avoid relegation in the last round, but The Pirates will lose their chance for a three-peat."

Torrado was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "Oh, you and Hu are friends. You two must have communicated... Did Hu beg you?"

Before Zhang Qinghuan could answer, he smiled meanly and said, "This is really unexpected. Players like Hu need our help sometimes! Hehe!"

Seeing him like this, Zhang Qinghuan also laughed: "Yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"...Sarria launched a fierce attack on Catalia's goal after the opening game. It didn't look like an away game at all. Catalia certainly didn't expect it, so they were beaten by Saria after the opening game. ..."

The voice of the commentator Sanchez came from the TV, and the Barcelona city derby between Catalan United and Sarria was being broadcast live.

"Didn't you send Brother Huan a message for help?"

Taking advantage of the gap when the game entered a dead ball, Li Qingqing glanced at Hu Lai who was sitting beside her.

Hu Lai shook his head: "No."

Li Qingqing joked: "Why? I'm afraid he will ask you to treat me to dinner? Didn't you ask Brother Huan last season?"

"The decision to win the championship is still in our own hands..." Hu Lai explained. "This time, I really need Brother Huan's help."

"Isn't that more appropriate?" Li Qingqing was puzzled.

"If Brother Huan is willing to help me with this matter, it is his righteousness. But I can't really ask him. Otherwise, Brother Huan will be very embarrassed. The 'Barcelona Derby' is not so easy to play. No matter what the result is, it is normal. I cannot give Brother Huan’s pressure. If the pirates can’t win the championship, that’s my responsibility, and it has nothing to do with Brother Huan. So I can’t say that.”

Li Qingqing looked at Hu Lai who explained to herself very seriously.

Seeing this, the latter asked, "What's wrong?"

She smiled sweetly: "You can think so. The league championship is no longer under your control, but there is still a chance in the Champions League. Concentrate on the semi-finals of the Champions League next Wednesday."

Hu Lai nodded: "Yes."

※※※

Twenty-five minutes later, both Hu Lai and Li Qingqing stared at the TV screen dumbfounded.

Inside, Carlos Torrado, the No. 9 shooter of Saria, was happily running towards Zhang Qinghuan!

And the commentator Sanchez was yelling: "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL! Carlos Torado! He scored a goal! He helped Sarria take the lead in the away game! Now it is Sarria 1:0 Catalan United! Oh !"

In the same scene, the content of the Chinese commentator He Feng shouted is completely different:

"Zhang Qinghuan! Zhang Qinghuan! Beautiful! His pass is like a scalpel in the hands of a skilled surgeon! It was delivered to Torado's feet with precision! He missed four months of the game due to serious injuries this season Argentine striker, I feel very good in front of goal today!"

On the TV screen, Torado rushed to Zhang Qinghuan, who was already waiting for him with open arms.

He jumped directly into Zhang Qinghuan's arms, and the two embraced tightly.

Hu Lai and Li Qingqing withdrew their astonished gazes, and then looked at each other.

Then they both laughed.

Hu Lai said, "Brother Huan is amazing!"

"En!" Li Qingqing nodded vigorously.

The reason why the two of them think Brother Huan is awesome is not just because Brother Huan completed an assist.

But this assist itself is very beautiful, and it also tests the player's passing ability.

At that time, Saria's offense was developed on the right side~www.novelmt.com~Zhang Qinghuan went to the right flank to support from the middle. So the team's right back Eneco Arango passed the football to him.

Facing the passing ball, he didn't stop the ball or make adjustments, but turned around and swung his feet!

The football was passed to the back of the penalty area by him in this way, and the left rib was empty!

Torrado ran to the space nimbly, received a pass from Zhang Qinghuan, and after adjusting well, he kicked and shot!

The football flew over the upraised hand of Catalan goalkeeper Toni Schulman and into the goal from just above the near corner!

The wonderful thing about this ball is that Zhang Qinghuan turned his back to the direction of his pass before passing the ball. Although he had observed in advance, he turned around and made a pass without stopping the ball to adjust, and the pass was so accurate. not easy.

Zhang Qinghuan passed the ball so decisively that the defensive players of the Catalan United did not react. At that time, Zhang Qinghuan was actually following Catalan Kabanka, but Kabanka probably did not expect Zhang Qinghuan to be able to make such a pass. It's so accurate...

So I became a "spectator" throughout the whole process.

When Zhang Qinghuan and Torado celebrated enthusiastically, Kabanka turned his head and looked over with a serious expression.
