Fox in the Penalty Area

v1 Chapter 166: Win-win for Chinese fans

"Lecinho! Lecinho! OOOOOOOOOOL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!"

"Xia Xiaoyu! Xia Xiaoyu! Beautiful! Xia Xiaoyu!"

The passionate roar of the former came from the commentator of Portuguese TV.

The latter is naturally from He Feng and Yan Kang.

Although it was Lecinho who scored the goal, both He Feng and Yan Kang cheered for Xia Xiaoyu immediately.

Because any fool can see how important Xia Xiaoyu played in this goal.

It can even be said that if it weren't for Xia Xiaoyu's outstanding performance, this goal would never have been scored!

It is also possible that Tramed took the opportunity to hit a wave of counterattacks, and he might lose the ball again.

At that time, three goals behind, the suspense of the two rounds ended directly in the first round.

Of course, if Tramed can really fight back, and Luo Kai is the one who scored the goal in the end, then He Feng and Yan Kang may be cheering for Luo Kai now...

In short, no matter what, Chinese fans will not lose.

They won this ball once, and if Tramed counterattacked and Luo Kai scored or assisted, the Chinese fans would also win.

Win-win!

※※※

After scoring the goal, Lecinho did not run to celebrate, but rushed into the goal after scoring the goal, picked up the football, turned around and ran towards the center circle.

When passing by Xia Xiaoyu, he hooked Xia Xiaoyu's shoulders, dragged him over, and thanked him for this "assist"...

Strictly speaking, Xia Xiaoyu did not assist Lecinho, but Lecinho still accepted it. In his opinion, if Xia Xiaoyu hadn't kicked the goal, how could he have the chance to make up the shot?

The team organizer Eli also came up and rubbed Xia Xiaoyu's hair vigorously.

The other teammates gave Xia Xiaoyu high-fives one after another, or patted his shoulder and head, expressing their intimacy in this way.

Joao Valente shouted hoarsely in the stands: "Good job, Xiaoyu! You are the best! That's it! This will be your starting point!"

As Xia Xiaoyu's teammate and friend in the reserve team, although Valente has also been transferred to the first team now, it is difficult for him to get a chance. In a game like the Champions League, he can't even make the squad and can only play at home. Be a spectator in the stands.

But this does not prevent him from cheering for his friends.

Beside him, and even further away, in the stands of the Arena Lisbon, there were cheering Alvara fans.

They know the difference between 1:3 and 2:3.

And now there are ten minutes left in the game, maybe we can score another goal and tie the score?

There is no away goal rule in the current Champions League, so even if Tramed scores three away goals, it will have no effect on Alvara. As long as they can equalize the score, then the two sides will still start from 0 in the next round. :0 started.

※※※

Looking at Xia Xiaoyu who was surrounded by his teammates with a shy smile on his face, Luo Kai felt complicated.

Although he and Xia Xiaoyu are schoolmates, their relationship is not good, because he and Xia Xiaoyu have no intersection at all.

Although everyone is a Chinese player, there is no rule that Chinese players have to believe that loving each other is like a family, right?

To be honest, Luo Kai wanted to swear when he saw Lesignho score a goal.

He only forcibly endured it when he thought that his expression might cause controversy on the Internet.

But he was really upset about the conceded goal!

Of course he wasn't upset because Xia Xiaoyu was showing off in front of him.

He is because of himself.

This conceded goal caused Tramed, who could have easily taken away the victory, to encounter a crisis.

He was a little annoyed that he didn't see through Xia Xiaoyu's movements in the first place.

It stands to reason that he should be able to see through, because he and Xia Xiaoyu have been teammates in the national team and know what Xia Xiaoyu's playing style is.

But maybe after coming to Alvala, Xia Xiaoyu had very few chances to really play as a midfielder, so that Luo Kai even forgot how Xia Xiaoyu would play in this position...

So I didn't react immediately.

As the person who is most familiar with Xia Xiaoyu in the Tramed team, Luo Kai could have helped the team plug this loophole, but he couldn't because of his own negligence.

This was what made Luo Kai extremely annoyed and dissatisfied.

Looking at Xia Xiaoyu who was surrounded by his teammates and ran back to the half court, Luo Kai shook his head invisibly.

After celebrating the goal, Alvara's head coach Queta quickly made adjustments to ask the team to continue to attack.

Then he returned to the sidelines to discuss with his assistant Miguel Mancha: "Xiaoyu's performance in this offense was beyond my expectations. He judged in advance that Bloom's pass would be blocked. ..."

Mancha said: "The training and competition tasks we arranged for him, he completed them very well and never complained. He is a good guy. Perhaps in future games, we should consider giving him more opportunities. Instead of letting him keep patching."

After listening to Mancha's words, Queta understood what he meant, but he frowned: "What about Eli? He is the core of the team."

"Eri and Xiaoyu are different types of organizers. Eli is more forward, and Xiaoyu can play as a midfielder." Mancha said.

"This means that we have to change our original tactics..." Queta hesitated.

Mancha continued: "We can try to have another set of backup tactics and staffing..."

After listening to the assistant coach's words this time, Queta fell into deep thought.

Mancha didn't continue talking.

Obviously the head coach is already seriously considering this matter, so there is no need for him, an assistant coach, to talk too much.

He just needs to wait for the head coach to make a final decision, and then make a training plan according to the head coach's requirements.

Anyway, what the head coach says, he does.

If the head coach didn't accept his opinion in the end, then at most he would feel sorry for Xia Xiaoyu, but he wouldn't run to contradict his head coach because of Xia Xiaoyu.

※※※

Counting injury time, there are nearly ten minutes left in the game.

Alvara pressed forward collectively at the last moment, hoping to equalize the score.

Because of Xia Xiaoyu's outstanding performance in the goal just now, his teammates placed high hopes on him, and everyone passed the ball to him one after another.

But at the same time, Tramed also strengthened his defense against Xia Xiaoyu.

So Xia Xiaoyu didn't help the team score another goal at the last moment to equalize the score.

However, due to his active performance on the offensive end, Tramed also made it difficult for him to invest more troops in the counterattack.

Finally, at the end of the game, the score was fixed at 2:3.

Alvara lost a goal at home.

After canceling the away goal rule, this score is completely acceptable for Alvara, and there is still hope for a fight in the second round.

Although the hope of defeating Tramed in the away game is not great...but it's better than not even having the qualifications to fight, right?

After the game, Luo Kai found Xia Xiaoyu, but it was not to exchange jerseys, but to exchange simple greetings.

They are both Chinese players, no matter how good their relationship is, meeting each other in the Champions League is always a big event, and it is impossible that there will be no communication.

If everyone turns around and leaves as soon as the game is over... that would be too heartless.

Luo Kai is rather aloof and doesn't like to please anyone, but it doesn't mean that he puts on a bad face to everyone, except for Hu Lai, he is normal to everyone else.

"That ball is so beautiful." Luo Kai said to Xia Xiaoyu, "I was slow to react. If I had remembered earlier that you would go forward, maybe I would have destroyed the ball."

Xia Xiaoyu showed a shy smile: "Fortunately, you didn't remember it!"

"Come on. If you continue to play like this, you can definitely become the main player in Alvara." Luo Kai encouraged.

Xia Xiaoyu nodded: "Thank you. I will work hard."

Luo Kai didn't say anything more, but shook hands with Xia Xiaoyu, then turned and walked away.

This scene made He Feng and Yan Kang in the live broadcast room behind feel extremely emotional:

"Oh, that's great! Finally there are Chinese players who are not Hu Lai chatting together after the game...Of course~lightnovelpub.net~ We don't have any objections to Hu Lai when we say this. It's just that there is only When we see more and more Chinese players other than Hu Lai meet in Europe, it will show that Chinese football has really gone out."

▽ 〖Umbrella

"That's right, He Feng. In fact, Leeds City, where Hu Lai is located, met Alvara in the Europa League last season, but Xia Xiaoyu didn't make it to the first team at all in that game. The 'Chinese Derby' eventually became Hu Lai's team. Lai's one-man show. In the Champions League this season, Hu Lai and Zhou Zijing played against each other in the Champions League... All our memories of the "Chinese Derby" are related to Hu Lai. Now we see Xia Xiaoyu and Luo Kai in the After the game, there was a lot of chatting and laughing, which made people feel very gratified. I hope that after this Olympic Games, we will have more players who can go out, even if they are not in the top five leagues, it doesn’t matter even if they are not in the top league...as long as they can go out, Open branches and scattered leaves are success!"

"Friends in the audience, this UEFA Champions League quarter-final match between Tramed and Alvara is broadcast here for you. Let's see you tomorrow, and there will be a 'Chinese Derby' waiting for you tomorrow!"

"See you tomorrow!"
