Fox in the Penalty Area

v1 Chapter 378: we have hula

Hu Lai swung his left foot to shoot, and after deceiving Jacobs to lift his leg to block it, he slammed the football to the right.

"One button!"

After dunking Jacobs, he then used the outer instep of his right foot to gently push the football out, and at the same time changed direction.

"One shot!"

He just changed direction and did not continue to dribble the ball forward. Johnson Law had already killed him, and he directly kicked and shot.

"Shoot!"

He used the outer instep of his right foot to swipe the ball towards the near corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Lemos couldn't make a save and could only watch the football fly into the goal he was guarding...

"Hu Lai! Beautiful! Goal scored! Hu Lai scored twice!! Beautiful! Beautiful! So beautiful!"

He Feng and Yan Kang roared and formed a dual voice.

Countless fans in front of the TV stood up and waved their arms vigorously.

The Madrid Pirates fans who went with the team at the Stan Park stadium were also cheering at the top of the stand.

What "South African Meli"?

Even if Argentine Meli comes, we are not afraid!

Because we have Chinese Hu Lai!

"Hu!! Super super super efficient killer! Originally, after Brooks' continuous adjustment, the performance of Stan Park Rangers has improved... But at the critical moment of their rise, Hu used a simple backcourt long pass to score Score, it was a fatal blow to the morale of Stan Park Rangers!"

Spanish commentator Sanchez raised his arms and shouted.

And England commentator Matthew Cox lamented: "It's really worthy of Hu! This scene must not be unfamiliar to England fans, because when Hu was in Leeds City, he has been at critical moments many times. To score a goal is to either break the deadlock or stabilize the morale of the army... His goals always come so well!"

Tony Clark, who watched the game live at home with his friend Matt Dawn, said with emotion: "Compared to Leeds, he is more efficient. Of course, the Pirates are also stronger than the original Leeds, so I feel He scores goals easily."

Matt Dawn: "He learned to handle the ball with his back in the Pirates, and he also learned more ball-handling skills. Spikes like this one are hard to see in Leeds."

Clark sighed: "Although I am very reluctant, I still have to say that he is right to go to the pirates..."

Matt comforted him by praising his friend: "We are not bad. We finally got rid of the inertial dependence on Hu and reshaped the offensive system. Whether it is Laski or Zhou, they performed well. Hu. It cannot be replicated, but we can successfully get rid of the sequelae of losing Hu, which is already very remarkable."

Clark listened to his friend's compliments and didn't speak.

To put it mildly, behind it is the hard work of all the coaching staff members over the past two seasons.

The Leeds coaching staff has been working to free the team from Hulay's influence from the first day he left the team.

There is a very painful transition period, and the most direct result is that Leeds City did not qualify for the European competition last season.

At that time, there were still many people who were bad at Leeds City, thinking that they would be nothing without Hu Lai, Leeds City has started to decline from its peak, and each subsequent season will be worse than the previous season.

The golden age of Leeds was dazzling, but too short-lived.

But this season, Leeds City has a lot of momentum to come back:

Twenty-five rounds have been played in the league, and Leeds is sixth with 43 points, just four points away from Stan Park Rangers, who are third in the league.

That's a stark difference from their 13th-place finish at the same time last season.

For someone like Matt Dawn who has deep feelings for both, there is nothing better than both Leeds and Hulay.

At this moment, David Miller and other Leeds fans who are watching live TV in the pub also think so.

Watching Hu Lai run to the corner flag area of ​​Stan Park again after scoring, these Leeds City fans all stood up from their seats, and then when Hu Lai landed, they shouted together:

"HUUUUU!!!"

After shouting, David Miller quickly raised the wine glass on the table and shouted:

"Cheers to Hu!"

All raised their glasses and responded enthusiastically to him:

"Cheers to Hu!"

"cheers!"

"Salute to Hu Lai!!"

"Oooo!"

"WhohadthewhataGOAL—?"

Suddenly Levin sang a song aloud in the crowd.

Then everyone roared in tacit understanding:

"WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO?"

"Hulai's whataGOAL!"

"HU! HU! HU! HU! HU!"

"HU! HU! HU! HU! HU!"

Scott Brooks folded his head in his hands in front of the home team Stan Park Rangers' bench and bench as the Pirates and Hu Lai fans celebrated wildly.

He was seeing the morale and performance of the team on the rise, and now he is seeing being beaten in the head by the opponent...

Hu Lai's ball turned his previous adjustments and attempts into a joke.

When Brooks was frustrated, Harry Bergard from the bench rushed to the sidelines, pointed to the court and shouted: "The game is not over! All cheer up! Rangers, never give up!!"

Matthew Cox sighed when he saw this scene: "Even sitting on the sidelines, Harry Bergard always reflects the meaning of his captaincy, he is encouraging his teammates ... but It's a pity that he can only do it on the sidelines now, and he can't lead by example on the court like he used to, lead the way... Brooks still has a substitution, maybe he will consider playing Bergard at the last minute?"

※※※

In the huge noise of the scene, in fact, Jimmy Stokes could not hear what the captain shouted.

But it doesn't matter, as a Stan Park Ranger player, if you see Captain Bergard standing there, you know what it means.

Nine times out of ten he was shouting that slogan.

Rangers, never give up!

Stokes looked up at the scoreboard on the big screen.

The whole game was seventy-first minutes, and there were still about twenty minutes before the end of the game.

With the current state of their opponents, the Madrid Pirates, it is almost impossible for Stan Park Rangers, who are three goals behind, to come back to victory in these 20 minutes.

Not to mention turning defeat into victory, not even drawing an opponent.

But that doesn't mean the Stan Park Rangers didn't make the effort next.

The Champions League knockout stage is a two-leg home and away game.

Losing the first game does not mean being eliminated.

There's a second round.

In the case of 0:3, how to save as much as possible and lay the foundation for a miracle in the second round.

This is what current Stan Park Rangers players should consider.

It is also the main reason why captain Harry Bergard wants everyone to "not give up".

So in the next game, if you want to score a goal, if you can get a goal back, the team will be much easier in the second round.

Thinking of this, Jimmy Stokes already knew what to do.

But he is neither the captain, nor does he have the same prestige as the captain in the team, so it is impossible for him to shout a few words on the court to make his teammates listen to his commands.

All he can do is do his own thing well.

No... is to do better.

Use your own actions to boost everyone's morale and tell them that the game is not over yet.

Now just wait for the opponent to finish the celebration and then kick off.

But the Pirates of Madrid players are still celebrating.

While leading Stan Park Rangers 3-0 on the road is indeed a joy, the Pirates' celebration took longer than the previous two...they were more like borrowing An opportunity to celebrate, stall for time...

So Stokes ran to the referee first, pointed to the Madrid Pirates players who were still celebrating, and complained to the referee:

"They're stalling for time, sir! They can't go on like this!"

In fact, the referee also noticed the small movements of the pirates and was about to run to intervene. But Stokes did this, as if he reminded the referee...

With the intervention of the referee, the players of the Madrid Pirates quickly ended their celebration and ran towards their half court in groups of threes and fives.

In front of the home team's coach on the sidelines, Scott Brooks asked his assistant coach Stephen Brown: "Stephen, did you see that?"

Brown knew what Brooks was referring to~lightnovelpub.net~ He nodded and said, "Yes, I saw it. Before anyone else had recovered from the 0:3 blow, Stokes was already in Thinking about getting the game started quickly."

Brooks sighed: "Harry will be a good head coach in the future..."

Stephen Brown was silent.

It turns out Harry Bergard was right about Stokes.

This seemingly docile player has unimaginable tenacity and a clear head.

Give him more chances and over time will surely develop into a good midfielder and even... a leader.

Only from the point of view of Stokes and vision, it is completely understandable for Brooks to express such emotion.

After all, after Stokes, who was optimistic about Harry, came on the field, it immediately brought a change to the team.

He also didn't get knocked down when the team was in trouble.

Brooks added:

"Whatever the outcome of this game is, we have to give Stokes more chances."

Brown nodded. "He deserves it."
