v1 Chapter 77: consecutive goals

"Holly! I knew it, ha! I knew it!"

Alvarez Sanchez, a commentator for Spanish television, laughed in the studio.

As he said this, Hu Lai on the screen had just finished his signature celebration.

"Hu scored again! His goal helped Madrid Pirates lead Real Steele 2:0 away! This is his 5th consecutive La Liga goal! Don't know if he has a chance to break Rivero in 2003-2004 The record for scoring consecutive goals in the Madrid Pirates this season..."

Former Uruguayan striker Augustin Rivero played for the Madrid Pirates at the turn of the century. He played for the Madrid Pirates for five seasons and helped the team score 128 goals in all competitions, ranking first in Madrid. Tenth on the Pirates club history scorer list.

The record mentioned by Sanchez was set by Rivero in the 2003-2004 season. He scored 11 goals in eight consecutive league rounds in that season.

Of course, this is only the consecutive scoring record within the Madrid Pirates.

The record of consecutive goals in the history of La Liga belongs to the Madrid Pirates' sworn enemy, the King of Madrid.

The creator is the current captain of the King of Madrid, Alexandra Serrados, one of the "Four Heavenly Kings". He was created in the 2022-2023 season, scoring 25 goals in 17 consecutive league rounds.

At present, Hu Lai has scored eight goals in five consecutive rounds of La Liga.

It is not difficult to surpass Rivero to become the record holder of consecutive goals in the Madrid Pirates.

But it will be very difficult to break Celados' record of 25 goals in 17 games.

Completing this record is really a combination of strength and good luck.

Better than Maxi Carey At his peak, he didn't even break Rivero's record. He scored ten goals in six consecutive games. His scoring efficiency is higher than Rivero's, but it doesn't matter for breaking the record. use.

With the goals of Hou Lai and Tonini, the Madrid Pirates finally defeated Real Steele 2:0 away.

They and Catalan United have still won the league so far, with a total of 15 points, but because the goal difference is not as good as Catalan United, they are temporarily ranked second.

Real Catjon, who was originally ranked third, tied with Samir Sports in this round of the league and was overtaken by King Madrid, who defeated Getafe 1326 4:1 in this round. Meli scored twice, scored six goals in the league, and was in hot pursuit of Hu Lai in the scorer list.

The top three in La Liga have returned to the state of being dominated by the "Three Heroes of the Western Super League".

Sarria, who has been in good form since the start of the new season, is ranked fourth this time.

After a hard battle at home in this round of the league, they defeated Sporting Vizcaya 3:2.

Zhang Qinghuan did not score a goal in this round of the league, but had an assist and performed quite well.

And it's not just in the league that he's been doing well, he's also doing well in the Europa League group stage that started last week.

In the first round of the Europa League group stage, Sarria's opponent was the Budapest Youth Team. In this game, Sarria shook hands with their opponents 1:1 at home.

But if it wasn't for Zhang Qinghuan's assist in the 78th minute of the game, Saria might have capsized at home.

Judging from the performance in the league and the Europa League, Sarria's goal this season should be to pursue the results in the league first. Well, the Europa League...It is of course good to achieve results, but if you can't, it doesn't matter, don't force it .

In fact, this is also the case. Before the start of the new season, the Sarria Club set the goal for the team to qualify for the European competition in the league, while the Europa League did not put forward specific requirements.

Obviously, after the Europa League team was relegated once, Saria's club executives still learned a lesson.

Knowing what is fundamental is of course league results.

Going further in the Europa League can certainly make a lot of money, but if you are relegated from the league, the economic loss is probably not worth it even if you participate in the Europa League twice in a row.

After the game against Royal Steele, next Tuesday is the league again.

In this game, Parotti is going to rotate the team's lineup.

It's not that the team's physical fitness is not enough to cope with double matches in a week. After all, the Madrid Pirates have just finished their summer training, so there is no problem with sufficient physical fitness.

The main reason for the rotation is the seventh round of the league next Saturday.

It was the first Madrid derby of the season.

The Madrid Pirates will play away against the King of Madrid.

In order to play this game well, the main players must be fully rested.

After playing the same city derby with the King of Madrid, the next step is to challenge Leeds City in the UEFA Champions League group stage.

The schedule is not only intensive, but also important games.

Only in the match against Pamplona, ​​who is currently ranked 18th in the league, the Madrid Pirates can still rotate.

"But one question, Ettore," said first assistant coach Jesús Valentine to Parotti. "Does Hu want to rotate?"

When Parotti heard this question, he didn't give an answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

He knew why his assistant was asking that question.

It stands to reason that Hu Lai, as the team's current top scorer, is very important. It must be ensured that his physical condition will not have any problems.

So it is normal to arrange for Hou Lai to rest in the game against Pamplona.

But this is a normal thing, there are still disagreements among the coaching staff.

Some people worry that if Hou Lai is allowed to rest for a game, it will interrupt his current scoring momentum.

You must know that he has scored eight goals in five games now, and he has scored goals in every game. What if this rotation breaks and the scoring momentum just stops during the derby with the King of Madrid in the same city?

Some people are worried about letting Hu Lai rest at this time, and Hu Lai himself will not do it.

Although I don't know if Hu Lai will definitely be able to break Augustin Rivero's consecutive scoring record, but with this momentum, asking him to rotate, wouldn't it be tantamount to letting him give up the chance to break the record?

Will Hu Lai accept such an arrangement?

Since joining the team, Hu Lai's personality has always been easy to talk and not to cause trouble. But who hasn't lost their temper?

Can't you go to Hu Lai and ask "Do you care about the consecutive scoring record? If you don't care, just take a break"?

How is it possible!

Finally, Parotti turned his attention to the team's physical coach Diego Morales: "Is the physical test report out?"

Before the start of each game, a physical examination will be conducted on the players to obtain their physical condition.

If you fail the physical test, you will not be able to participate in the competition. If the physical fitness has not fully recovered, it may be placed on the substitute list.

Morales nodded: "Come out. As before, Hu's physical fitness is 100% fine. It's like he hasn't played against Royal Steele at all..."

The rest of the coaching staff couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

This is not the first time, but when they saw Hu Lai's miraculous and excellent physical recovery ability again, they still felt incredible.

In the physical test before every game before this, Hu Lai's physical fitness was very good.

At that time, the physical fitness coach Morales noticed something, and he talked with Hu Lai specifically, and the latter told him that his physical recovery speed was different from ordinary people, which was also a kind of talent.

But at that time, Hu Lai's physical performance was good, but it was not too exaggerated. Some players with good physical fitness can also do it.

But since returning to the club after participating in the national team game, the team has played consecutive double matches for a week.

Under such circumstances, Hu Lai's physical fitness is still among the best in every physical test.

This has to make people surprised. Has Hu Lai's physical fitness been so good?

There was only three or four days between each game, and there were running back and forth between the two ends of the Eurasian continent in between, but it didn't affect his physical recovery...

Finally Parotti made a decision: "Let him, but replace him in advance."

Hearing this, Valentine put Hu Lai's name on the list.

There are not many names on this list, and the candidates for most of the positions have not yet been finalized, and they will be decided based on the two days of training.

"Hu Lai, what will you do if your head coach informs you to rest for the next game against Pamplona?"

During dinner, Li Qingqing asked Hu Lai such a question.

"I'm going to talk to him one-on-one and hope he changes his mind."

"I thought you would accept the head coach's arrangement... so are you going to be concerned about breaking the record?" Li Qingqing looked at Hu Lai with wide eyes and asked.

"Of course, I want to break the record." Hu Lai nodded honestly. "If I can, I still want to break Celados' record. But what I want to break most is Rivero's eight-game consecutive scoring record. I think I have been in a good state recently, and I want to break this state. carry on."

In fact, there was another important reason why Hu Lai didn't tell Li Qingqing, because he couldn't tell.

That means he still has system tasks...

After he scored six goals in three games, he received the task issued by the system:

"Task: Please try to maintain the momentum of scoring goals in each round of the league, the longer the better. Mission reward: Determined according to the final completion. Every extension of a round of league points increases by 50,000, [Powerful Potion of Wisdom] × 1. Current progress :6 unknown"

This is the first task he has received since his transfer to the Madrid Pirates.

Now Hu Lai is used to the quest system of appearing and disappearing, or in other words, he has nothing to do.

This task depends entirely on the mood of the system. If you are in a good mood, the task will be issued to you. If you are in a bad mood, you can keep silent for several months.

Although with Hu Lai's current ability, the system can only assist him. When he first came to this world and was still a rookie in football, the system was very important to him. At that time, without the help of the system, he would be unable to move forward.

But now, no matter what, he has received so many years of training in a professional team, so he can't say that he will stop completely without the system, showing his true colors.

At present, the system makes him perceive the most obvious [Physical Potion] and various training scrolls.

[Lover's Red Rope] has become a permanent item, worn on his wrist, and he doesn't need to spend 10,000 points per game to redeem it.

[Broken Bear Legguards] and [Consonance Card] are useful, but he doesn't need them in every game.

Despite this, Hu Lai still wants to complete the task, and hopes that there will be more tasks.

Because he needs to accumulate enough points~lightnovelpub.net~ These points are mainly used in the national team competitions, such as the key battles of the World Cup qualifiers, or simply the World Cup main match.

Those places are where he needs the system most.

Li Qingqing naturally wouldn't think about the system. She couldn't think of her boyfriend having an affair, but she also understood Hu Lai's urgency.

Who would think there are too few goals?

Who hesitates when it is possible to set a new record?

So she said: "After I finish reviewing later, I will help you practice your left foot. You must be the target of public criticism now, and the opponent will definitely defend against your right foot. If you shoot with your left foot as soon as possible at this time, you can. Make it harder for opponents to defend you."

Hu Lai nodded: "Then please, coach!"
