Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 2037 Change Has Happened

"Holly!"

"Wang Guangwei!"

He Feng called out the names of Hu Lai and Wang Guangwei in a short period of time, indicating that this was another head-to-head confrontation between the two in this game.

In this confrontation, although Hu Lai used the fake action of assuming a real button to sway Wang Guangwei away, he still paid a price in order to get rid of Wang Guangwei's blockage-he lost his balance while kicking the shot, and his body was already stretched. Leaning back badly.

Generally, in this case, in various football teachings, it is not considered the correct shooting posture.

Coaches will remind students to keep their upper body stable and upright when shooting, and keep their center of gravity directly above the football.

The theory is correct, but in actual operation, such a perfect shooting situation may not appear every time.

Professional players always have to complete technical moves in various unconventional situations.

Shooting with the center of gravity of the body leaning back has a high probability of kicking the football into the air.

But if the player who shoots is the top scorer in football today, then the goalkeeper on the opposite side dare not take it lightly.

Faced with Hu Lai's shot, Vesuvio's Swedish goalkeeper Jacobs Persson still struggled to make a save...

But in front of Hu Lai's tricky shot, he still looked a little embarrassed...

Because he completely misjudged the direction-he jumped to the right side of his body, but the football was stabbed to the other side by Hou Lai.

Fortunately, when he was completely out of balance, Hu Lai didn't fully exert his strength when shooting.

So the football flew neither fast nor far, and was blocked by Persson's foot behind, which missed the goal!

Center back Giuseppe Giordano, who was caught up, was then finally kicked out of the touchline with a big foot...

"Wow! How risky! Hu's kick is really tricky!"

"Through the slow-motion replay, we can see that Hu Lai's ankle snapped out when he shot...It's amazing! Under such circumstances, he can still control his foot movements so finely..."

Hu Lai, who didn't score a goal, propped himself up from the ground and saw that the ball hadn't been scored, so he lay down on the ground again annoyed, turned over, patted the turf hard with both hands, and then got up.

Although he looked annoyed, Vesuvius' goalkeeper Persson was not at all complacent about it.

On the contrary, his heart was beating violently while sitting on the ground.

He was feeling scared about that shot just now—if his feet hadn't been stretched a little more, the goal would have been scored!

This is the first time that Persson, the Swedish national goalkeeper, has confronted Hou Lai in an official game.

He had learned from many aspects how powerful Hu Lai is a striker before, but now he has the most intuitive understanding of this impression.

Why is the Belgian national team, once "World No. 1" Jonathan Hewell once said in an interview that the striker he is least willing to face is Hu Lai.

That is definitely not a "commercial bragging" from club teammates.

Playing against such a crafty striker is a severe test for any goalkeeper.

Persson couldn't even stand up and point to Hu Lai, so that everyone should be more vigilant about Hu Lai.

Because in defense, my teammates have actually put in a lot of effort to defend Hu Lai...

If it weren't for Wang Guangwei's interference with Hu Lai, he wouldn't lose his center of gravity when shooting, and maybe the goal would have been scored.

If Giordano hadn't returned to the goal in time to clear the siege, it might have given the other players of the Madrid Pirates a chance to make up shots. When Giordano kicked, Vukovic was actually only two meters away from the football. Just one step forward to touch the ball.

Persson slowly got up from the ground. While calming down his nervousness, he pretended to be nonchalant and cast a glance at the big screen.

The sixty-ninth minute of the game.

He and his teammates have to continue to persist for at least 20 minutes in such a high-pressure environment.

During this time, they cannot make a single mistake.

Not long after the start of the second half, Wang Guangwei used a header to help Vesuvius equalize the total score.

After that, Vesuvius stepped up his offensive, hoping to score two goals in a short period of time and regain the lead.

But until now, the team has not been able to break the goal of the Madrid Pirates.

During this period, Vesuvius created some chances and also threatened the goal that Heywell was guarding.

But no goal is no goal.

The score is still 3:3.

This score is completely acceptable for the Madrid Pirates, but Vesuvius cannot.

They must take the lead in the next game.

So they have to put more energy into the offense, so that the pressure on the defense will be greater.

In the past few minutes, dangers in front of Vesuvius' gate have begun to appear frequently, precisely because of this.

But the problem is that they knew it would happen, and they had to continue to increase their offensive in the next game.

As a defensive player, he has to continue to work hard.

After the Pirates of Madrid threw a throw-in, they attacked with a cross from the side.

Vesuvius goalkeeper Persson stepped forward and intercepted the football halfway.

After taking off the football in the air, Persson put the football on his chest and lay down on the ground.

He didn't immediately get up and throw the ball to attack, but took this opportunity to calm down his nervousness. It didn't quite fit the performance of a team behind, but he did it anyway.

After everyone exited the penalty area, Persson stood up from the ground, threw the football, and helped the team launch another attack.

※※※

Although Vesuvius would like to regain the lead, it may not be possible to do so.

It is also impossible for them to maintain a rapid offensive all the time.

The rhythm is always adjusted, and there is no way to keep playing against the Madrid Pirates.

When they slow down, the Madrid Pirates will be on the offensive.

Nestor Farias is the most eye-catching player in the Madrid Pirates offensive.

Because he shoulders the important task of transporting the football from the back to the front.

Vesuvius fans in the stands booed loudly whenever Farias got the ball.

Fans of Vesuvius still think that this method can stimulate Farias and make this unruly genius completely lose his cool.

Even though the game so far, they haven't seen the scene they expected...

But this does not prevent them from continuing to look forward to it.

※※※

Wang Guangwei is responsible for defending Hu Lai, and captain Montero is responsible for defending Farias.

Giordano is more like an auxiliary, where he needs to go.

Now that Farias is more active, he will naturally help captain Montero defend Farias.

When he leaned forward, intending to defend Farias with Montero, the latter passed the football.

Seeing him pass the ball, the Vesuvius fans in the stands booed and laughed.

Hearing such a movement, Giordano was suddenly blessed and inspired.

He decided to give Farias some intensity.

So he approached Farias and said, "Hey, hey!"

He yelled twice first, and Farias didn't seem to realize that he was calling himself, and didn't make any response.

Giordano cut to the chase: "Hey, why did you pass the ball just now? Shouldn't you keep dribbling the ball? You passed the ball without even meeting me...I'm so disappointed in you!"

This time he finally managed to attract Farias' attention.

The Argentine winger cast his gaze on him.

Seeing this, Giordano knew that he had succeeded, and he further stimulated the opponent, spreading his hands together: "It's just that you pass a few people in a place like Spain where you rely on your eyes to defend, and you dare to call yourself a genius. The genius over there It's worthless!"

He was sure that what he said reached Farias' heart, because he noticed that the way Farias looked at him changed slightly.

Great, that's it!

Giordano knew he had succeeded.

In the next game, Farias will definitely fight alone like crazy, just to prove that he slapped himself in the face.

In this way, Farias will become a "black hole" in the offense of the Madrid Pirates-if the football is at his feet, don't even think about coming out.

Just like the previous three league games of the Madrid Pirates.

After Farias took a deep look at Giordano, he turned and left.

Behind him, Giordano laughed happily:

I don't dare to start a fight with Hu, don't I dare to spray you!

※※※

"Farias is asking for the ball!"

Seeing Farias raise his arm, Giordano cast his gaze over, and then the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

In his opinion, this is the performance of Farias being stimulated by himself to lose his mind.

When Farias received the ball, Vesuvius' defensive midfielder Montero pressed forward.

And Giordano moved closer to him.

Facing the defense of two people, Farias did not choose to pass the ball this time, but dribbled the ball into Longtan alone.

He passed Montero first, and then went straight to Giordano.

Although Giordano's tone was frivolous when provoking Farias, but when facing Farias' breakthrough, the talented Italian central defender still appeared very calm.

He didn't shoot rashly, but lowered his center of gravity and kept it at a very suitable distance—neither close enough to be thrown away by Farias with a stride, nor far enough to face Farias' shot powerless.

Facing Giordano's defense, Farias dropped his shoulders to the right, as if to cut inside.

Giordano followed suit and swayed there.

Then Farias suddenly broke to the left again!

Giordano followed suit.

When he came back, he saw Farias swung his left leg, which was the "forward swing" of shooting!

He stretched out his feet to block it.

But Farias' move was just a feint. He swung his left leg and didn't shoot. The football continued to roll forward, helping him to distance himself from Giordano.

Giordano had just made the movement of extending his foot to block the shot, and it was too late to make other movements.

Farias really started to shoot!

But the ball went straight wide of the near post...

The laughter of the Vesuvius fans sounded again in the stands.

In order to complete the shot, Farias threw his center of gravity completely out, so he fell to the ground after the shot.

After getting up, he first saw the football flying out of the baseline, then turned his head to look at the middle.

There was Hu Lai who ran to the door to meet him just now.

Obviously, if he didn't choose to shoot just now, but passed the ball to the middle, then Hu Lai should celebrate the goal now...

His choice made the team lose the chance to lead.

Giordano turned his eyes away from Hou Lai, looked back at Farias, and said with a smile on his face: "You should pass the ball. Pass the ball to Hu Lai and you will be ahead. But you have to Come by yourself...thank you!"

He believed that Farias' mentality should have exploded after such a combination of punches.

The more he said that he should pass the ball, the less likely he would be to pass the ball next time!

※※※

"Oh! Farias' ball...it should be passed!"

After He Feng and Yan Kang saw Farias shoot the football over the baseline, they looked up to the sky and sighed.

Just when Farias changed direction and made a breakthrough, Hu Lai suddenly accelerated and circled from behind Wang Guangwei to the front of him, getting stuck a bit.

At this time, if Farias passes the ball across, Hu Lai can withstand Wang Guangwei and then hit the football into the goal.

Wang Guangwei wanted to stop Hu Lai, the only way was to foul behind.

But instead of passing the ball, Farias chose to do it himself.

As he had done many times before.

When he saw Hu Lai suddenly approaching, Wang Guangwei was also tense, and he quickly used his hands and feet to fight for the position with Hu Lai.

With his advantage in physical strength, he will definitely be able to grab it back in the end.

But he was afraid that Farias would make a cross while Hu Lai went around.

Fortunately, in the end Farias chose to shoot himself.

Wang Guangwei, who had already regained his position, looked back at Hu Lai who was behind him again, and said with a smile, "He's the same as before."

Hu Lai frowned and said nothing.

※※※

"ungrateful!"

Seeing that Farias shot by himself and did not pass the ball to Hu Lai, Xie Lan snorted coldly.

"Just now our son assisted him with one, so why should we pay him back? He paid it back himself! The ball our son passed to him was for nothing! If you treat him as a teammate, will they treat you as a teammate? How kind to treat it as the liver and lungs of a donkey!"

Hu Lixin listened to his wife's nagging complaints, but did not speak, but frowned while watching the live broadcast.

During the TV broadcast, He Feng and Yan Kang also criticized Farias for being too independent.

"...Maybe it was the goal in the first half that made Farias feel that his feet were going well today..."

"Just scored one goal and feel that my feet are going smoothly? Hu Lai has already scored two goals in this game!"

"Hey, if Farias can figure this out, he won't be so controversial..."

Then the two commentators sighed in unison.

Hu Lai is really unlucky to have such a teammate.

No wonder many domestic fans now think that Hu Lai should leave the Madrid Pirates after the end of this World Cup.

Anyway, he took everything he should get in the Pirates. Since the head coach who trusted him was leaving and he was aggrieved by playing, why did he stay?

Hu Lai is only 31 years old. With his ability and state, as long as he wants to leave, the giants in Europe will break their heads in order to sign him.

Whatever salary he wants, the next family is willing to offer it with both hands.

No worries about having nowhere to go.

At that time, let Farias sink in his own "beautiful dream", I will not wait for you!

※※※

But obviously, Hu Lai and netizens think differently.

He didn't drop the pick just because Farias didn't pass him the ball before.

When the Madrid Pirates attacked again, he pulled back to the midfield and after receiving the ball, turned his back to the attacking direction and passed the football to Farias who pulled the side to respond.

After passing the ball, he turned and moved forward.

Montero left him to pounce on Farias.

Hu Lai, who went forward, was handed over to central defender Wang Guangwei to deal with.

As for Vukovic, who followed Hu Lai forward, there are other Vesuvius players in charge. Montero doesn't worry about this, nor can he worry about it.

Farias has already shown signs of "paranoia", Montero will continue to persecute him, put pressure on him, and make him completely lose his mind.

Also jumping on Farias was Vesuvius right back Roberto Acardi and right midfielder Andrea Couto.

At the same time, central defender Giordano also turned his focus there.

Farias once again became the focus of everyone's attention.

Facing the encirclement that quickly closed on him, as everyone had guessed, he did not pass the football.

Before receiving the ball, he leaned to the outside, lifted his right foot, as if to let the football pass, and then waded directly forward.

But when the football really rolled here, he slammed the football to the inside with the raised outer instep of his right foot!

Andre Cotto, who was chasing back, couldn't stop the car, slipped and fell to the ground, and passed him.

Farias speeds up to catch up to the football he knocked out.

At this time Montero is also fast catching up with football.

Vukovic, who responded in the middle, quickly pointed his hands down and shouted at Farias: "Pass the ball!"

But Farias didn't do this. He swung his right leg, grabbed Montero, and threw it out to buckle the football to the left.

At the same time, his body also completed the change of direction with a huge tilt-if he hadn't supported his body with his left hand, he might have fallen to the ground.

In the end, Farias stumbled and completed the change of direction, dribbling the ball towards Vesuvius' penalty area.

Right back Roberto Acardi saw that Farias passed the two in an instant, and did not go up to give away the head.

Instead, slow down and fight and retreat.

He intends to slow down the pace of Farias and provide time for other teammates to return to the defense.

Farias dribbles the ball straight at him.

Then... stepped on the bicycle!

First, the outer instep of the left foot is drawn from the top of the football to the outside.

Acardi, who lowered his center of gravity, was unmoved.

This was indeed a fake move.

Then Farias' right foot swiped across the football to the outside.

Still a feint.

So Acardi still didn't move, his upper body center of gravity remained stable, and his eyes were fixed on the football.

Then he saw Farias swing his right foot back from the outside, as if intending to push the ball to the left.

This time Acardi was finally not indifferent. Facing this sudden change, his upper body shook reflexively, and his feet also took a small step outward.

But Farias is still a fake move!

His right foot passed behind the football from the outside to the inside. After making Acardi's center of gravity unstable, Farias seized the opportunity and gently moved the football to the right with the outside instep of his right foot, followed by another Turn and turn, and drive the football!

At this time, Vesuvius' right back Acardi wanted to make a move, but it was too late. He could only watch Farias cut across from him.

"Farias! Cut inside!"

At the South Stadium, the cheers of the Madrid Pirates fans and the screams of the Vesuvius fans sounded at the same time.

Under these two voices, the inside Farias faced the long-awaited centre-back Giuseppe Giordano.

Farias raised his right leg and made a shot.

Giordano's center of gravity swayed slightly.

Farias' right foot fell, not to shoot, but to buckle the football to the left side of his body!

Then he turned and changed direction.

Giordano immediately followed suit, making sure his body was stuck inside and not immediately attached.

The reason why he was so calm was that he saw Captain Montero plug in at high speed from behind him, overtook him, and chased Farias.

In this way, in the small space in front of the corner of the small penalty area, there are two people blocking Farias, himself and the captain, which can completely ensure that he is forced into a dead end.

So nothing to panic about.

Just stand still and wait for Farias to bring the ball into a dead end by himself, and after this attack returns in vain, he will continue to mock, sneer and provoke. Guaranteed to stoke Farias' rage and take him one step closer to madness...

Then Giordano saw Farias kicking the football with his right foot. In order to avoid Montero who rushed up, he really wanted to continue to bring the football to the baseline!

Giordano and Montero moved in unison, and Qi Qi forced a step forward.

Continue to compress the activity space of Farias.

It has to be said that Giordano, a young central defender, has such composure and discipline that he is indeed worthy of the title of "genius central defender".

At the same time, in the middle of the front door, Wang Guangwei's body was facing Farias' side, but he was always observing Hu Lai from the corner of his eye.

Then he saw Hu Lai suddenly speed up and start!

After learning the lesson of being snatched by Hu Lai last time, Wang Guangwei reacted quickly this time, and immediately started to grab the position.

Unexpectedly, at the same time as he stepped forward, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Hu Lai, who was supposed to follow forward, stopped suddenly, and then took a step back!

It was at this time that Farias' right foot was like a flexible snake, and with a flick of his ankle, the football that should have been pushed back was pulled back!

The outer instep of his right foot pushed the football through the gap between Giordano and Montero!

Oxtail, and a reverse oxtail!

It's just that most people use ox tails to stand out from others, but Farias is a little different this time.

He seems to have made a mistake when doing the oxtail movement, and he used too much force, and he pushed the football a little far. Even if he can pass between Giordano and Montero, he is destined to fail to catch up with football...

Because behind Giordano and Montero ~www.readwn.com~ there is another central defender Wang Guangwei of Vesuvius!

But... what if this oxtail is not for passing people?

Wang Guangwei, who grabbed the position, turned his head and watched in astonishment as the football passed by him and rolled towards...Hu Lai!

The distance is so close and the speed is so fast, he has no time to react!

"Holly!"

"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU—!"

"Hu!!"

Amidst the exclamation of the narrators, Hu Lai, who was retreating, swung his right leg while retreating!

Then, while leaning back, push your right foot forward and kick the football!

Vesuvius goalkeeper Jacobs Persson, who blocked Farias' shot angle at the front point, turned around and rushed back, it was too late!

He never touched the ball!

He threw himself back, but the football flew into the goal from above him!

"Hulai-! Beautiful!! Hat-trick! Hat-trick! Pirates of Madrid lead Vesuvius 4:3!"
