Chapter 715 I’m coming to the Premier League!
When Kamara returned to the locker room, his teammates rushed to tap him on the shoulder and give him high-fives.
Although Hulay and Pete Williams each scored a goal, everyone could see that Leeds City's best player in the first half was this young French player.
When he first came to the team, he aroused everyone's dissatisfaction. They all felt that there was nothing to be done about a kid who had never even played in the top league and had been hanging around in the third-tier league.
But now everyone has to admit that they do have the capital.
From French C to the Premier League, there was almost no time to adapt. I only played three warm-up games before. This is the first official game, and the performance is so outstanding, and the talent is really beyond words.
His excellent speed and foot skills make him like a super sports car with full power on the court, and he can't be stopped.
The enthusiastic praise from his teammates never left the smile on Kamara's face.
He now feels that he is getting closer and closer to his goal - in half a season, he will conquer the fans here like Hu Lai and make them willing to cheer for him. And walking on the streets of Leeds City, I will no longer be an unknown person that no one cares about.
Kamala seemed to be able to see a beautiful picture unfolding slowly in front of her eyes.
The dark clouds that have been hovering over his head since the last warm-up match are finally about to dissipate. The sun shines down from the gaps in the clouds, pulling out beams of light in the air, like projections of heaven.
There is also a place for me, Ismail Kamara, on this stage!

"We made a mistake in the first half. Fortunately, we still have forty-five minutes to correct this mistake!"
In the dressing room of the home team Burley, head coach Mattson Odrisk said to his players with a serious face.
"We lacked restrictions on their No. 22 and gave him too much space in the first half. In the second half, you have to be more aggressive and don't be too polite to that kid! Press him, squeeze his space, and be more aggressive. , get started when it’s time to start! As a welcome gift to him, tell him what the Premier League is like!”
"Come on, get tough!!" After the head coach finished speaking, the team's captain, Reese Hutchinson, stood up from his seat, clapped his hands hard, and loudly encouraged the team's morale.
Now they are two goals behind at home and their morale is low. If they don't cheer up, they will encounter a "bad start" in the new season of the league - this is not a good sign for their relegation cause.
Sweeney said with a dark face: "Don't worry, I won't let that kid do whatever he wants in front of me in the second half!"
In the first half, his side was directly impacted by Kamara, and he played very awkwardly. Originally a full-back who is stronger in offense than defense, his specialty is pressing forward and assisting in games. As a result, throughout the first half, he was beaten by an unknown person who appeared out of nowhere and could only parry, but was unable to fight back.
This is simply a huge shame for Ryan Sweeney, who has become a "veteran" in the Premier League.
Especially the rainbow one.
If he hadn't fouled in time, he would have been passed by that kid!
Now that I think about it, Sweeney still feels scared - if that kid really got beaten up, then you can completely imagine how prominently this shot will be placed in this round of highlights of "In Season"... Then he But he is really famous, but this kind of fame is definitely not what he wants.
Thinking of this, Sweeney felt that he would never let this kid go easily.
Be sure to let him know what the Premier League is, which is completely different from the Cats and Dogs League he played in before!
※※※
After the start of the second half, it was no different from the first half. Leeds City's offensive focus was still on the left wing of Kamara and Quinn.
In response, Burley's overall formation shrank closer to this side, compressing Leeds City's space for movement here.
But this is not really a solution to the problem.
If you want to solve Leeds City's offensive threat once and for all, you must completely freeze the French boy!
When Kamara received the ball again and was about to turn and lead forward, he was knocked away from behind by the rushing Sweeney. The ball was lost and the whistle sounded.
Sweeney was called for a foul, and rightfully so.
But it was just a foul, a verbal warning, and the referee had no intention of playing a card.
This made Leeds City head coach Tony Clark and assistant coach Sam Landill angry off the field. Seeing that the referee had no intention of playing cards, they rushed out from the coaching bench at the same time. One of them spread his arms and roared into the court, while the other turned around and waved his arms at the fourth official in protest.
Sweeney has a yellow card, and they certainly hope that the referee can give him another yellow card, two yellows will become one red, and he will be sent off.
However, at Burley's home court, the referee seemed very cautious.
※※※
Kamara knew he was under siege by his opponents. In addition to Sweeney, other Burley players will also come to defend themselves. And what they have in common in defending themselves is that they are very ruthless and unceremonious in their defense, and they also have a lot of small tricks on their hands.
In short, he would do anything to stop himself.
But Kamara was not intimidated by the opponent's targeted defense.
Even if he was knocked to the ground time and time again in various ways, he would always get up quickly and rush forward again.
This is my first Premier League game, and that beautiful blueprint is still waiting for me ahead. How can I be afraid of them here? !
No one can stop me from making a lot of money!
※※※
On the sidelines, Burley head coach Maison Odrisk stood in the command area, with his hands folded across his chest and looking at the court solemnly.
Nearly half of the second half was played, and the defensive pressure did not ease at all. Because the team was basically on the defensive in the second half, and the offense still showed no improvement.
The French boy is much tougher than he thought.
He originally thought that a high-pressure defense against Kamara in the second half would allow him to retreat or be overwhelmed by a Premier League-level defense.
Unexpectedly, this kid seems to be getting braver and braver as he fights...
This reminded him of the same stadium last season when his team faced Leeds City's new aid Hu Lai...
Are all newcomers this scary now? !
No...only Leeds City's new players are so scary...
Damn it!
※※※
Damn it!
Ryan Sweeney stared at Kamara, who was rushing towards him with the ball, and cursed in his mind.
He could see that the boy came to him on purpose.
Because I have a yellow card on myself.
At that time, I was just enjoying myself and didn't think about how much impact a yellow card would have on him as a defender...
This bastard!
Sweeney could only fight and retreat, slowly retreating into the penalty area.
But Kamara didn't give him a chance to delay. He accelerated and rushed forward, pedaling towards Sweeney.
He first passed over the football with his right foot, as if he was going to move the ball in and cut into the middle. However, after a false shot, he then lifted up his left foot and passed over the football.
After riding the bicycle twice in a row, he got closer and closer to Sweeney, so close that Sweeney felt that as long as he stretched out his foot, he would most likely be able to poke the football away...
So when Kamara's right foot passed over the football again, he immediately stretched out his foot to poke it!
Kamara reacted faster than he did. He just swung his right ankle around the football and gently moved the football to the left with a tap of his toes. And Sweeney missed it!
Following the outside instep of Kamara's left foot, he moved the football forward with his right foot, speeding up and bypassing the stiff Sweeney!
"Oh beautiful!!" Cox shouted excitedly, "Excellent! Kamala teased Sweeney again, this time he did it on purpose!"
He did do it on purpose, and everyone could see it from the fact that he rushed to Sweeney with the ball. How can any offensive player look for a place with a defensive player to dribble the ball? It must be to seek revenge...
Hey, this guy is... interesting!
Premier League commentator Cox laughed inwardly.
※※※
Kamara, who passed Sweeney, dribbled the ball straight into the ribs of the penalty area.
Facing the Burley defender who came over, he swung his foot to make a pass, causing the opponent to raise his foot to block it.
However, he took advantage of the opportunity when the opponent was unable to move, took a feint shot, and took the football one step forward.
Only after catching up with the football again did he really start to pass.
The football flew high and went straight to the back point!
Lorenzo jumped up from the front point and tried to head the ball towards the goal, but the flying height of the football obviously exceeded his jumping height, and he missed the ball!
Everyone's eyes moved as the football moved to the back, and as the football fell, they saw Hu Lai, who was ambushing at the back, swinging his right leg!
"Opportunity! Hu Lai!"
Burley's center back William Barton flew forward, intending to use his body to block Hulay's shot.
But Hu Lai didn't shoot. The football that fell from the air was firmly planted on the ground by his right foot!
Button jumped into the air, unable to stop the car, and passed by Hu Lai.
"This stop is...beautiful!"
Hu Lai, who was able to get away from the defender with just one stop, swung his right foot again. This time he did not swing his leg much because he had to seize the time to shoot!
Just like the last stroke of a golf club putting the ball into the hole, he hit it sideways!
The ball flew past Burley goalkeeper Farland Campbell's fingers and into the goal!
"HUUUUUUU——LAAAAAAAAAAAI!!" Cox shouted excitedly. This was the first time he called out Hu Lai's full name in the game commentary, using this way to express his respect for Hu Lai—— When everyone thought he might hit the "rookie wall" in his second season, Hu Lai gave his answer by scoring twice in the first game of the new season!
Such a performance indeed deserves the respect of Cox, an experienced and famous football commentator.
"Hulay scored again! Beautiful! A perfect debut of the new season! His two goals helped Leeds City take a 3:0 lead in the away game! There is no better start than this!"
"Hu Lai was on full fire at the beginning of the league. This is really incredible... I hope Hu Lai can maintain this state and bring more happiness to Chinese fans with goals! Haha!"
He Feng and Yan Kang laughed first, fully feeling the joy that football brought them.
After scoring, Hulay did not run to the corner flag area alone to do his signature celebration, but ran to Kamara who provided his second assist.
He pointed at the other person and laughed.
A [Lingxi Card] worth 30,000 points is for you to use, it’s really not a waste!
Task progress:
2/30
Kamala waited there, welcoming Hu Lai with an open heart and smiling happily. Premier League here I come!
