Chapter 613 Everyone is growing
When Lin Zhiyuan fell from the air and stood up again, he could only see a group of flash star players running towards the back.
Like a comet heading towards the sun.
He turned around angrily and kicked the football towards the net.
He didn't even save the ball...that kid Hu Lai scored again!
Damn it! !
Lin Zhiyuan looked up to the sky and shouted.
Not only him, but other players of the South China Tigers were also very upset.
Taking the lead in less than a minute, it was a perfect start.
However, the South China Tigers, who had a perfect start, did not seize this opportunity to make persistent efforts and expand their lead. Instead, they were pushed back by Flash Star and evened the score in seventeen minutes.
The advantage of opening the game with a score of 1:0 was gone.
The two teams are back on the same starting line.
Everything seems to be the same as when the game started...
No, it's different.
Now the morale of the Shining Star players is even higher, but the South China Tigers players will inevitably be upset deep in their hearts - we were equalized and the lead was gone...
As long as you think this way, it will definitely affect the mood and state of the South China Tigers players.
And it's impossible for them not to think about it at all.
Returning to the same starting line only refers to the score, but in fact, for the players of the two teams, there has never been a "same starting line".
Flashstar equalized the score and were taking the lead mentally.
The South China Tigers were equalized in the score and fell behind psychologically...
This time is the time to test whether a team is truly a strong team.
Those teams that are defeated by their opponents after conceding a goal are unable to become a league hegemon under any circumstances.
The South China Tigers have been very popular in Chinese football in recent years, and they certainly have the confidence to face any difficulties.
Before, it was Qin Lin who boosted the morale of the Flashing Star team, but now it was the turn of Yao Huasheng, the captain of the South China Tigers.
He went to slap those dejected teammates one by one, waved his fists beside them, and cheered them up.
Lin Zhiyuan was slapped hard on the back by him.
When Lin Zhiyuan turned around and saw Yao Huasheng, the latter ran away without saying anything.
I went to pat the back of another person.
※※※
"Did Shining Star equalize the score?" Cao Wei stared wide-eyed at the assistant coach Wu Dening who had just told him the news.
The latter confirmed him again.
"Okay!" Cao Wei slapped his face hard, "As expected of Hu Lai!"
Then he stood up and walked to the sideline.
Almost at the same time, he noticed that the Hedong Thunder head coach Yan Li stood up from the coaching bench next door and also noticed the movement on his side.
The two just looked at each other from afar.
Obviously the other party also knew the news from Jincheng.
Flashstar's equalizer means that there are still many variables in the championship situation.
With the current score, the Stars tied with the South China Tigers 1:1, with the South China Tigers accumulating 62 points. If the Shanhai Mariners, who currently have 60 points, can defeat the Hedong Thunder, they can overtake the South China Tigers with 63 points and reverse themselves in the final round to become the Chinese Super League champion this season!
When the two head coaches got up from their seats and came to the sidelines, the two teams that had been testing each other before also accelerated their pace.
Soon the Shanhai Mariners, who were playing at home, launched a threatening attack that reached the goal of Hedong Leiden.
And finally Zhou Zijing completed the header.
"Zhou Zijing headed the ball!! Hao De made a wonderful save! It seems that it was affected by the game between Flash Star and South China Tigers, and the Mariners and Thunderbolt also became active!"
Zhou Zijing, who failed to score, put his head in his hands and yelled at the Thunder goal.
His father Zhou Shenghai also made the same move as his son in the stands.
Although his son is facing the current main goalkeeper of the Chinese national team, he also feels sorry for his son - you can do it, son, you can break through this "national goalkeeper", come on!
※※※
Returning to the bustling Andong Provincial Sports Center, various cheering slogans of "Rise Up" could be heard endlessly.
The Flash Star team, which had just equalized the score, was greatly boosted in morale and continued its offensive against the South China Tigers.
As strong as the South China Tigers, when facing the fierce offensive of the Stars in the away game, they had to avoid its edge and shrink their defense to avoid conceding the ball again in a short period of time.
Seeing this scene, He Feng sighed in the commentary box: "The South China Tigers were actually overwhelmed by the Stars in the game... You must know that the Stars are a newly promoted team!"
Yan Kang laughed next to him: "He Feng, we can no longer say that Shining Star is a 'promoted team'? How can there be such a vigorous promoted team? This is already a championship team."
"Of course, I know. I just feel sad. When the two teams met for the first time in the Super Cup, everyone thought that the South China Tigers would definitely win. The Stars faced the South China Tigers in the game and wanted to score a goal. The ball was extremely difficult, and in the end it was Hu Lai's genius who imagined the follow-up. The ball was a 'lucky' victory over the South China Tigers... Even though they won, there are still many people who think that Shining Star's ability to defeat the South China Tigers was due to luck... Now they are able to suppress the South China Tigers at their home court. This is not a coincidence. It goes back and forth and never falls behind..." He Feng explained.
"Indeed, the Flash Star team has grown a lot this season and has made rapid progress. Looking back at their performance in the Chinese League One and the Football Association Cup last season, and then looking at their performance in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League this season, Everyone has improved. This is very rare... Moreover, even Chen Xingyi, who was loaned by Dashun Golden Arrow, has made very obvious progress. Zhao Kangming's ability to train young players is really getting better and better. Getting stronger!”
Chen Xingyi, who was praised by Yan Kang for making great progress, was getting the ball on the wing and facing Dai Song's defense.
The two people can be considered "enemies". In the Super Cup at the beginning of the season, the reason why the South China Tigers finally lost the game was not only because of Hu Lai's unlucky back-heeled goal. In fact, the real root cause was that the side guarded by Yu Daisong was penetrated by Chen Xingyi. .
After a season, Yu Daisong certainly can no longer let Chen Xingyi do whatever he wants in front of him.
In fact, in the fifteenth round of the league, he had already succeeded in revenge. In that game, he basically prevented Chen Xingyi from performing well, and also helped the South China Tigers defeat the Stars 4:1 at their home court.
But that game was just about defeating Flash Star, it wasn't considered revenge.
The South China Tigers lost a championship to Flash Star. Of course, they must win back a championship to be considered a successful revenge.
Yu Daisong lowered his focus and stared at Chen Xingyi's feet.
Chen Xingyi was dribbling the ball forward, but not very fast.
Yu Daisong, who was defending him, fought and retreated, always keeping a reasonable distance from Chen Xingyi.
Chen Xingyi did not carry it forward without limit. If he continued to move forward, the space would become smaller and smaller, and by then his speed would be useless.
So he suddenly accelerated, as if to force a breakthrough.
Yu Daisong's whole body tensed up.
I saw Chen Xingyi's left foot kicking towards the football, trying to get the football out.
But in the end it was just a false shot!
His left foot crossed over the football without kicking it, and then he quickly swung it back and knocked the football behind him with his heel.
There, the left back Zhang Hao, who was assisting, caught the ball and walked away without slowing down.
Yu Daisong put all his attention on Chen Xingyi, but ignored Zhang Hao who came in from behind. He could only watch helplessly as Zhang Hao dribbled the ball from the side and sent a cross.
Xia Xiaoyu, who advanced into the penalty area, jumped up and shook his head to attack the goal under the cover of Hu Lai!
The football was lifted over the crossbar by Lin Zhiyuan with one palm.
※※※
Xia Xiaoyu felt as if he hadn't played as an attacking midfielder for a long time. He didn't expect that in this last league game, he would have the opportunity to return to the position he was best at in the school team.
This feeling is even a little strange.
But he quickly became familiar with it, after all, it was the position he had played for ten years.
He is actually responsible for organizing offenses in both the front midfielder and the back midfielder, and in the development of modern football, the position difference between the front midfielder and the back midfielder has become further blurred. Sometimes the front midfielder looks like a back midfielder, and the back midfielder looks like a front midfielder.
Xia Xiaoyu gave the football to Zhang Qinghuan, who came up to meet him. He looked left and right, chose a place where the South China Tigers' defense was relatively weak, and ran to get ready to respond.
Xia Wu in the stands watched his cousin move freely on the court, whether with the ball or without the ball, he was very precise.
He couldn't help but sigh with emotion - his cousin was already a qualified professional player!
And this is only his first professional league season.
It is simply unbelievable that the younger brother who chased football with me on the football field when he was a child has grown to this point...
Come on Xiaoyu!
※※※
After receiving Xia Xiaoyu's pass, Zhang Qinghuan did not continue to develop on the wing, but suddenly cut inside and went to the middle. At the same time, Xia Xiaoyu moved from behind Zhang Qinghuan to the wing - he and Zhang Qinghuan made a cross-change.
Zhang Qinghuan walked to the middle, attracted the attention of the South China Tigers defensive players to the middle, and then knocked the football with his heel to Xia Xiaoyu who was behind him.
Before Xia Xiaoyu caught the ball, he looked up and observed the situation in the penalty area. He had already grasped the distribution of personnel there and made calculations in his mind.
After receiving the ball from Brother Huan, he did not stop the ball to adjust and make unnecessary movements. Instead, he chose to pass the ball directly at a 45-degree angle!
Although this is likely to lead to a decrease in passing accuracy, it can catch the opponent off guard and seize the loopholes in their defense.
In Xia Xiaoyu's opinion, it was a choice completely worth the risk.
Even if it fails, there will be no serious consequences.
This is one of the few differences between an organizational midfielder and an attacking midfielder - if he is in the midfielder position, he must be cautious about taking risks, but when he is close to the opponent's goal, Director Zhao encourages players to take risks. of.
"Xia Xiaoyu passed the ball directly!"
The South China Tigers' defense line had just been attracted to the middle by Zhang Qinghuan. At this time, they pounced again. The originally clenched fists turned into open palms, and the space between the fingers naturally became much larger.
This is the opportunity that Xia Xiaoyu wants to seize.
He bet that the South China Tigers' defense would lose sight of one thing during this back-and-forth maneuver.
For this reason, he did not pick up the football high, but sent a kick to the ground!
The football moved quickly against the turf toward the front of the South China Tiger's goal.
There, Hu Lai rushed in, and despite constant entanglement with Yao Huasheng, he still chose to tackle the football!
Shovel shot!
Yao Huasheng also put down a shovel at the same time, trying to block Hu Lai's shot with his legs.
But Hu Lai still had a better grasp of the timing of shooting. He shoveled the football to the near corner of the goal first!
The football rolled towards the goal in front of Yao Huasheng's toes!
Lin Zhiyuan jumped forward. He was over 1.9 meters tall but as flexible as an ape at this moment.
I saw him lightly stretching his arms and hitting the football that was coming!
The football bounced off the near post!
The alarm has not been cleared!
Lin Zhiyuan, who fell to the ground, saw the football bounce back to the goal. He quickly struggled to get up again and made a second save.
Not far away, Team Yao and Hu Lai were entangled. Neither of them had gotten up yet. The most terrifying person could not threaten his goal for the time being...
He relaxed slightly.
Then he saw a figure passing in front of him.
"Chen Xingyi!!"
"Opportunity!!"
The volcano at the Provincial Sports Center erupted again.
Lin Zhiyuan had no time to adjust his body in a hurry. Before he could get up from the ground, he barely ejected and opened his body to expand the defensive area, hoping that he could block Chen Xingyi's shot.
Chen Xingyi fought his way out of the crowd, ran towards the landing point of the football, and then raised his right foot.
Push the bouncing football toward the goal that is just around the corner.
Before Lin Zhiyuan pounced, the football flew into the South China Tiger's goal!
"Chen Xingyi made a supplementary shot - a good goal!! Flashing Star reversed the lead! Beautiful!!"
"Although Lin Zhiyuan made a wonderful save and blocked Hu Lai's shot, he still couldn't completely save the team's fate... Chen Xingyi cleverly appeared where he was needed most! Behind the South China Tigers When the defense was attracted by Hu Lai, he gave his opponent a fatal blow! ”
"In the 43rd minute, at the end of the first half, Flash Star scored again! This time it was Chen Xingyi who scored! Flash Star's indiscriminate bombardment in the first half has paid off!"
After scoring the goal, Chen Xingyi first turned his head to confirm that the football had entered the goal, and then opened his arms and ran towards the corner flag area. He sometimes turned to the left and sometimes turned to the right, just like a glider on the green field.
In the end, he landed directly in a dive, spread his arms, and slid on the turf with his body!
Then Zhang Qinghuan also spread his arms and swooped down to him, then turned over and hugged him.
More Flash Star players followed closely and rushed over to press them. Enjoy celebrating their first lead of the game!
