Chapter 174 Chen Xingyi’s competitors
Meng Xi rose into the air, stretched out his arms, and used his fist to hit the football that was about to fly into the goal.
After landing, he rolled around on the spot to relieve his strength, and then jumped up from the ground.
The football he hit had already caused the players from Dongchuan Middle School to make a clearance with their big feet.
"Meng Xi made a beautiful save. He blocked Zhou Zijing's shot!" the commentator said excitedly.
"Oh my, isn't it just a scoring contest?" After getting up, Meng Xi saw Zhou Zijing standing not far away, spread his hands, and said in a strange tone.
Zhou Zijing glanced at him, ignored him, and ran away.
Meng Xi made a grimace at the boy's back.

"Dongchuan Middle School launched an attack. Shen Yulin headed the ball towards the goal, but was hugged by Qingyang Yigao's goalkeeper Liu Mingzhe... Then Liu Mingzhe threw the ball to attack, and Qingyang Yigao attacked again!"
"Although they were one goal behind, the players of Qingyang No. 1 High School did not seem to be affected by the loss of the ball. They continued to attack Dongchuan Middle School! And Dongchuan Middle School did not attack Qingyang No. 1 High School because of its fierce offensive. Shrinking the defense, on the contrary, their offense remained the same... After Hu Lai opened the deadlock, the game became more exciting and intense! ”
"Actually, one of the characteristics of high school football is that the pace of the game is generally faster. Because both sides will make more mistakes, when the players make mistakes when moving forward, it is easy for the offense and defense to switch... Dongchuan Middle School and Qingchuan Middle School Yang Yigao is now entangled with each other in the midfield. Both sides have made many mistakes, but there are also some eye-catching cooperation..."
"Xia Xiaoyu tried a long shot from outside the penalty area... but was blocked by Qingyang Yigao's central defender Wu Xiaodong with his body! Oops! Xia Xiaoyu's shot was so sudden..."
"Meng Xi once again made an effective save, but he missed it! There was chaos in front of Dongchuan Middle School... In the end, Yan Yan saved the football! What a danger!"
"The first half ended in a few minutes. The two sides went back and forth, and actually completed a total of twenty-seven shots..."
"Here I go, twenty-seven shots and not even half the game? Are these two teams going crazy?" At the dinner table, players from Shuguang High School who were watching the game on Chen Xingyi's mobile phone heard the commentator After these words, everyone opened their mouths wide and exclaimed.
In fact, the vast majority of Shuguang High School players had neither watched Dongchuan Middle School play nor Qingyang No. 1 High School's games before.
Even before Zhou Zijing came to their door, they probably had not even noticed or heard of Qingyang Yigao's name.
Dongchuan Middle School is a little familiar, but it is only because of the fan war between Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi in the last national competition last year that they knew and cared about Dongchuan Middle School.
But when it comes to what Dongchuan Middle School's game is like, I'm afraid except for Chen Xingyi, the other Shuguang High School players don't know.
Looking at it today, I realized that both Dongchuan Middle School and Qingyang No. 1 High School are really capable.
In particular, Qingyang Yigao, who entered the national competition again after two years, performed very bravely when falling behind by one goal and did not panic because of falling behind.

Chu Yifan looked at the time on his phone. There were still three minutes left before the end of the first half. The injury time should not be too long, because the entire first half went smoothly.
The players of these two teams have obviously not yet learned to delay the game and slow down the rhythm of the game by frequently falling to the ground like professional players.
Therefore, the game was not interrupted much in the first half, and naturally there was not much time needed for injury time.
Seeing this time, Chu Yifan let out a breath and felt relieved - the pace of the two sides in the first half was too fast. Not only did the players on the field play hard, but he, the spectator, also felt that Hard work, hard work to watch.
Always in this fast-paced game atmosphere, the audience will actually be really tired.
Chu Yifan has been worried about the physical strength of his former teammates.
With this fast-paced playing style, I don't know how long their physical fitness can last.
Of course, the other party must also be working very hard. At this time, it naturally depends on who can grit their teeth and persevere.
Fortunately, the first half of the game is almost over now, and Dongchuan Middle School still leads by one goal.
Although Qingyang Yigao worked hard, he still failed to open the goal guarded by Meng Xi.
Being able to enter the halftime break with a one-goal lead is a good thing for Dongchuan Middle School...
Just when Chu Yifan was thinking this, on the court, Qingyang Yigao made a long pass from the backcourt.
They obviously also found that there was not much time left in the first half, so they had no patience to pass the ball up from the backcourt.
Instead, he chose the simplest and crudest way of playing - a long pass to find Zhou Zijing in front.
When Zhou Zijing saw his teammate's long pass, he broke out of Dongchuan Middle School's defense and went straight to the spot where the football was going to land.
Yan Yan followed up and planned to defend closely.
※※※
"Qingyang's long pass from the backcourt goes directly to Zhou Zijing!"
On the mobile phone screen, Zhou Zijing has already reached the landing point of the football. He jumps up and removes the football with his chest.
At the same time, Yan Yan, the captain of Dongchuan Middle School, also posted up, seemingly trying to interfere with Zhou Zijing's stoppage of the ball.
But from the fact that Zhou Zijing steadily unloaded the football, it can be seen that Yan Yan's plan obviously failed...
Zhou Zijing, who stopped the ball, wanted to turn around, but Yan Yan failed and continued to press forward.
The two collided, and Zhou Zijing pushed Yan Yan.
Yan Yan's body tilted and he was staggered!
At the same time, he also lost his grip on Zhou Zijing...
"Yan Yan was carried away by Zhou Zijing!" the commentator exclaimed.
"Holy shit!" The Shuguang High School players in front of their mobile phones also exclaimed. "You pushed it away so easily?!"
※※※
Zhou Zijing, who had resisted Yan Yan, completed his turn at the same time. He was now facing the goal of Dongchuan Middle School.
Facing Mao Xiao who rushed up from the side, Zhou Zijing used the outside instep of his right foot to move the football sideways to the middle.
Mao Xiao did not dare to stretch out his legs rashly, so he could only brake suddenly and then change direction, trying to stay in front of Zhou Zijing, while waiting for his other teammates to get back in position.
Zhou Zijing, on the other hand, raised his right leg, preparing to shoot from a long distance.
Mao Xiao quickly stretched out his foot to block the ball, but did not stop the football.
Because Zhou Zijing just made a fake move. When his right foot came down, he used the outside instep to push the football away.
This gave him an angle of about half his body. Zhou Zijing took a long step forward and raised his right leg again. This time it was no longer a fake move...
Bang!
At the top of the penalty arc, he shot the football hard towards the goal!
Although Meng Xi jumped forward and stretched his arms as far as possible, he still failed to block Zhou Zijing's powerful and heavy shot.
The football flew past his fingertips and into the goal!
At the end of the first half, Zhou Zijing helped Qingyang Yigao equalize the score!
※※※
"Wow! Good shot! Beautiful!!" As the commentator shouted, huge cheers rang out in the stadium of Nanshan University. "This is Zhou Zijing's sixth goal in this national competition!"
The Akebono High School players who gathered in a half circle in front of their mobile phones were all stunned.
That evening, when this man stopped Chen Xingyi at the entrance of the Asian Games Village cafeteria and said he wanted to challenge him, many players from Shuguang High School were disdainful - all the cats and dogs came to find Chen Xingyi, who are you?
Now I see Zhou Zijing using his physical strength to push Yan Yan aside in the game, then facing Mao Xiao's frontal interception, using a fake move to get out of the shooting angle, and then decisively taking a long shot... It's really exciting to watch!
It turns out that this is the competitor Chen Xingyi will face in this national competition... Qingyang Yigao, Zhou Zijing!
