Fox in the Penalty Area

v1 Chapter 277: baby eagle has grown up

"...in the second half we're going to attack their goal the hardest from the start!"

When Meli heard his coach Paladini gritted his teeth and said this sentence, he was quietly relieved in his heart.

Finally... finally the head coach made the right choice.

He was really afraid to hear Paladini tell them that after the start of the second half, they will play steadily and let the Chinese team attack first...

Otherwise, he really can't guarantee whether he can't help but compete with Paladini.

But if he really did that, the damage to the team would be extremely huge. After all, the captain and the head coach had an argument during halftime, and it was not a trivial matter that everyone would automatically forget after fifteen minutes.

Merry didn't want to do it unless it was absolutely necessary.

But if Paladini really makes such a decision, Meli can't guarantee whether he can accept it unconditionally.

There are some changes that Meli himself has not noticed. Since he was put in the core position of the tactics by the club coach Roy Wei last season, his desire to control has become stronger and stronger.

In order to be able to compete with Hu Lai for the Golden Boot in the league, he will very directly express to the head coach Roy Wei that he does not want to take turns, and does not accept the practice of taking him out of the game squad.

Facing Roewe, the famous coach of the King of Madrid, Meli can still maintain some respect.

But for the Olympic team coach Leonardo Paladini, who has only coached in China and has not had any outstanding achievements in his life, Meli may not have that much respect.

Fortunately, Paladini made the right choice, invisibly appease Meli's anger, and resolved a possible conflict in the locker room...

※※※

Fifteen minutes after the intermission, the game resumed.

Neither side made substitution adjustments.

The Chinese team leads the score here, of course there is no need to make substitutions first.

Argentina is also the strongest lineup.

At the beginning of the second half, Argentina swept away the decline in the first half and launched a fierce offensive towards the goal of the Olympic team.

Naturally, Meli and Cantero acted as the team's offensive arrows.

The two of them surrounded the high center Rodrigo Novaretti. Through Novaretti's cover, they frequently crossed and changed positions, which made it more difficult for the Chinese Olympic team to defend.

This is also the request of coach Paladini.

Attack directly from the side instead of moving from the side to the center.

In this way, the two defensive midfielders arranged by the Chinese Olympic team in the middle lost most of their effects.

It is precisely because of this adjustment that the Argentine Olympic team's offense was more threatening than in the first half.

The Chinese Olympic team can often only be exhausted when defending.

Meli and Cantero have more room for movement and frequently switch positions, making it easy for the Chinese team to make mistakes when defending.

※※※

"Cantero switched to the left wing, and with a feint he swayed the Olympic team's right back Feng Li! He broke into the penalty area! Dangerous!"

Accompanied by the exclamation of the commentators He Feng and Yan Kang, Cantero broke into the penalty area of ​​the Chinese Olympic team from the left, and Feng Li turned around in embarrassment behind him, staggering, and it was too late to return to the defense.

Cantero makes a move to shoot, but sends the ball in the center!

And he didn't pass to center Novaretti, but behind Novaretti.

When Novaretti pushed forward and entangled Cai Shuyi, the captain of the Chinese team's central defender, Meli came up from behind.

He bypassed Novaretti and Cai Shuyi, followed by Guan Shipeng, another central defender of the Olympic team who was defending him, but was blocked by Novaretti and Cai Shuyi... When he avoided the obstacle, he had already lost target!

"Merry!"

Mei Li, who threw off Guan Shipeng, swung his left leg towards the rolling football.

Ou Yangjin rushed forward, trying to clear the football before Melly. Although it is actually more likely that he scored an own goal... Ou Yangjin did not hesitate at all, even if he did score an own goal, he would not hesitate, anyway, as long as it is not Meli's goal!

It's a pity that Ou Yangjin's decisive tackle failed to stop Melly.

Because Melly moves faster than him!

Before Ou Yangjin, he rubbed the football on the inside of his left foot!

After he kicked the football away, Ou Yangjin's foot shoveled...

Lin Zhiyuan only found Meli when he came around from behind Novaretti and Cai Shuyi, and he had already made a quick save. He guessed that Meli could only shoot the football to the near corner under such a situation!

So he rushed to the near corner without hesitation!

But who would have thought that when he soared into the air, he found that the inside of Melly's left foot had lifted the football to... the far corner behind him!

It turned out to be a very difficult reflex angle!

Lin Zhiyuan's eyes widened, he turned his head to watch the football fly towards the back post, he was completely powerless...

The football hit the inside of the far post and bounced into the net!

"Oh!" He Feng let out a long sigh.

The Argentine narrator screamed excitedly: "Meli! Meli!! Meli!! Ah! Meli!"

Excited, he could only repeat Melly's name, as if calling for a hero.

That's right, the Argentine Olympic team really needs a hero who can stand up and help the team equalize.

And Melly is the best candidate for this hero role.

When Argentina encountered difficulties, countless Argentine fans turned their attention to him, hoping that he could turn the tide.

Meli did not disappoint his supporters!

After the goal, Meli ran to the corner flag excitedly, but was pulled to the ground by the more excited Cantero halfway, and then turned over and pressed on him.

More Argentine Olympic team players also ran over, stacking arhats to celebrate.

"Still not stopped... At the 57th minute, Argentina equalized the score." He Feng finally recovered from the loss of the ball just now, and sighed. "The second half of the game has just started, and Argentina's offensive is very fierce. But the most important thing is Meli's outstanding performance... I don't know if it is my illusion, I feel that every time Meli meets Hou Lai, he is extra energetic..."

Yan Kang smiled wryly: "It's not an illusion, He Feng. Melly was holding back his energy and wanted to beat Hu Lai. After all, he and Hu Lai faced each other four times last season and lost three of them. Especially when they were double-killed in the league, I still remember that time After the first 'Madrid Derby', is there a debate on the Internet about the strength of Hou Lai and Meli? I think it is this debate that makes Meli always bitter about beating Hou Lai. Yu Huai..."

He Feng froze for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's really Hu Lai's honor to be regarded by Mei Li as an opponent that must be defeated..."

There is one more thing he didn't say:

It is also a misfortune to be so persistently targeted by Meli!

If Meli was compared to a wild beast, how much pressure would it take to be stared at by such a beast, and to keep staring at it?

Really can not have the slightest slack.

Otherwise, it may be devoured by wild beasts.

Just like last season's Champions League semi-final.

Meli has lost two games in a row in the league, and also lost the away game in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.

Counting the Olympic game that year, Meli and Hu Lai did not win a game when they met.

So everyone thought that this time in the semi-finals of the Champions League, Meli would become Hu Lai's defeat, and Hu Lai's fans were ready to mock Meli with full firepower on the Internet.

As a result, many people forgot that Mei Li was actually a beast, and Hou Lai awakened the animal nature in his heart.

At that time, after Hu Lai was eliminated from the competition, He Feng kept something in his heart and didn't say it, because he was afraid that if he said it, it would cause controversy on the Internet and put himself and Hu Lai in a whirlpool.

That sentence is: In fact, Hu Lai lost well.

Losing at that time is better than winning and winning all the time, and then losing in a more critical game later.

He felt that Hu Lai also needed a defeat to help him anchor again.

From the hat-trick in the last round of La Liga away game against Catalan United, to a series of performances in this Olympic Games, He Feng thinks he guessed right.

After losing that Champions League semi-final, Hu Lai improved significantly and faster, and at the same time became more mature.

For example, in this game, he passed the kick to Zhou Zijing.

Hu Lai is still the forward with super scoring ability, but he is not just a forward who can only score.

He Feng believes that Hu Lai will become stronger in the future, take on greater responsibilities, and bring us even greater surprises.

And all of this will be accompanied by the confrontation between him and Meli.

Being targeted by Meli, Hu Lai's career may not be too easy~lightnovelpub.net~ But it will not make people worry about his weak successor...

※※※

Meli, who finished celebrating with his teammates, was ready to return to his own half.

After running two steps, he turned around and punched three times vigorously towards the Argentine fans in the stands.

There were three loud and short roars in the sky above Sequoia Sports Park in response to Meli's three punches.

In fact, after Meli scored a goal in the past, he would not celebrate his goal in this way.

He did this only from last season.

The change in celebration speaks to a change in his mood.

"Young Eagle" has grown up, and he will be the king of this sky!
