Chapter 784 Hu Lai Character Song
Leeds City took the lead in the first ten seconds, which really surprised everyone.
Although everyone can guess that Leeds City wants to take things by surprise, this does not mean that their tactics will definitely succeed.
Who would have thought...that it would actually happen?
The first attack after kick-off, four-foot pass, sent the football into Widgerston's goal in ten seconds.
People always talk about "a wonderful start", but when a truly wonderful start is placed in front of everyone, everyone feels incredible.
How is this possible?
How is this done? !
God...
Many people exclaimed in their hearts.
Even the DJ on the live broadcast was a little slow in responding and did not send out his "soul question" immediately.
Not to mention those Wijston fans who traveled with the team to the away game, they are still messy in the wind at this moment - can they all score goals in this way? How funny! What are our players doing, are they freaking out? !
I don’t know if the Widgston players were frightened, but the Widgston fans were definitely frightened. They all held their heads in their hands and stared blankly at the stadium.
The Leeds City players had finished celebrating and collectively returned to their own half. At this time, the DJ's three questions sounded on the radio: "Who is it? Who is it? Who scored the goal?!"
"HUUUUUU!!!"
Although Hu Lai did not make his signature celebration this time, the fans who came to their senses still responded to the live broadcast with this uniform roar.
Hearing the roar, Hu Lai, who was among his teammates, raised his arm and waved to the stands to greet the fans.

"Ahaha!" Tony Clark patted the assistant coach Randall next to him hard, "It actually worked!"
Randhir complained: "So you don't know what you are doing?!"
"Who can guarantee that every tactic will be successful?" Clark laughed and didn't care about this problem. "The important thing is that we really scored a goal! We took the lead in the first ten seconds. Is there any better start than this? Sam Sam , let me tell you, when you think Hu is acting out of imagination, it means that our opponents must not have expected that we would do this, so this unexpected approach is more likely to have miraculous results!”
Faced with the hard facts, Sam Randill had nothing to say.
He shook his head and then laughed: "I really...can't figure out this Chinese boy..."
"Then I recommend you to read "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, which may help you understand a genius like Hu!" Clark took the opportunity to promote the "Ancient Eastern Wisdom" book he was studying recently. "Actually, everything Hu did can be summed up in one sentence in that book: 'Attack the enemy when he is unprepared and catch him by surprise'."
Clark pronounced this sentence in Chinese pronunciation. He thought that his image must have become mysterious and profound in Randhir's eyes.
"It means to attack where the opponent is not prepared and to surprise the opponent. You see, isn't that what this tactic is? Roger Biller must not have expected that we would do this, so he didn't give himself any warning before the game. The players explained how to defend our attack. When our people rushed forward in a swarm, Widgerston's formation was like a fence that encountered a flood. It collapsed as soon as it hit and was completely defeated!"
※※※
Roger Biller really didn't expect it at all - few people in their right mind would have imagined that Leeds City would arrange such a tactic.
Of course he didn't think this was a carefully planned conspiracy by Leeds City. He just thought it was Leeds City's good luck and the whole team was unlucky.
That's why he became particularly angry after losing the ball - if his opponent is just unlucky enough to score, is there any reason for this? ! We put in so much effort before the game, including scouting reports and video analysis for Leeds City, targeted training arrangements, racking our brains to design tactics... all of these were turned away just because the opponent was lucky. For nothing, who can bear this? !
At this time, Biller, who had white hair and wore dark sportswear, was furious, complaining to his assistant coach: "Damn it! One long pass from the backcourt can accurately find their tallest central defender. , you can find the forward winger with just one header... How is it so accurate? I bet if Leeds City uses this tactic again, they won't be able to score!"
Biller is right, this ball actually involves a lot of luck. If Leeds City repeats it a few times, the result may be worse each time.
But this is why Biller was angry: It's the first time, you scored on the first try! This luck is so unreasonable!
As the head coach of the team, he has done so much preparation work before the game. He can accept that his team's skills are not as good as others, and he can also accept mistakes and conceding goals due to his own negligence, but he just cannot accept the opponent's luck. goal - anyway, he absolutely does not believe that there is any complicated core in Leeds City's tactics and that it requires repeated and hard training.
To be honest, when the Leeds City players rushed forward in a swarm, the old coach almost thought he had traveled back to the English football world at the beginning of the last century.
The popular offensive tactic at that time was for the passer to kick the football forward, and then a group of people chased the football, relying on the numerical advantage created in the frontcourt to advance into the opponent's penalty area, and finally scored a goal.
This tactic has long been eliminated by modern football, but it actually works for our own team. This is simply ridiculous!
Why are you, Leeds City, letting me play Renaissance? !
It’s so deceiving!
Old coach Roger Buehler felt greatly insulted...
One face turned red.

Leeds City's players finally ran back to their own half, and the time it took them to score the goal was not as long as the celebration...
Widgerston's players had already taken their positions. Forward John Joe stood in the center circle with a football under his feet, waiting for the kick-off.
Watching Hu Lai pass through the center circle and pass him, I remembered what Hu Lai said to him two minutes ago.
At that time, Hu Lai advised them not to move after the kick-off in Leeds City, because they would be back for the kick-off right away anyway, so there was no need to waste energy running around.
After he said this, many Wijston players laughed, and forward John Joe was among them.
Now he was staring at the smiling Hu Lai, but he couldn't laugh at all.
Because they're really back to kick off!
At first I thought Leeds City were the clowns, but now I know the clowns are actually them...
But the game has just begun. Although you scored the ball first, we still have ninety minutes to counterattack!
John Joe clenched his fists and stared at Hu Lai's figure.
Many people would find it frustrating to concede a goal in the opening game, but John Joe is able to see the positives in negative things.
This will not dampen our morale, on the contrary, Leeds City's humiliating way of scoring will definitely stimulate our fighting spirit. So next...the game has just begun, Leeds City!
Just when John Joe was thinking this, he heard singing suddenly coming from the direction of the north stand behind him.
※※※
When the Leeds City players ran back to their own half, two minutes had passed since the goal. Everyone's initial enthusiasm gradually subsided. The cheers of the Leeds City fans in the stands stopped for a while, and everyone was waiting for the kick-off to resume. The Flanders Stadium was much quieter than before.
So the singing voice seemed particularly prominent and clear in such an environment.
"WhohadthewhataGOAL?" (Who scored such a beautiful goal?)
It seemed like someone was asking loudly.
Then more people repeated the question loudly:
"WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO?" (Who? Who? Who is who? Who is who?)
“HULAI’swhataGOAL!” (Such a beautiful goal was scored by Hu Lai!)
Someone loudly answered the question, and then more people started shouting:
"HU! HU! HU! HU! HU!" (It's Hu! Hu! Hu Hu Hu Hu!)
(Note 1)
When the song started, many people didn't care, but when they heard it, they almost all laughed.
This song is very familiar to them. It is a funny song in itself. Its original name is "Wholet the dog out?" (Who let the dog out?). From the title of the song, you can tell that this is not a serious song - the "HU!" in the song! HU! "It actually imitates the barking of a dog.
Unexpectedly, someone adapted this song into a cheering song for Hu Lai. This is really... So is Hu Lai a dog?
Others are closing the door and letting the dogs go, but Leeds City is closing the door and letting Hu Lai go?
Even the Wiggerston fans, who were depressed after just conceding a goal, couldn't help laughing when they heard this song.
Laughter spread in the stands and spread to the court, as well as the bench and coaching bench beside the court.
When they heard the song that sounded like a barking dog, they couldn't help but grin.
Charlie Potter also winked at Hu Lai and motioned for him to listen to the song.
The laughter grew louder and more obvious, almost drowning out the singing.
At this time, the members of the "White Rose" in the North Stand heard the roar of laughter and knew that their strange song was being laughed at mercilessly.
But...
We’ve all been laughed at anyway, that’s it anyway, so let’s just sing louder!
David, if this is what you're looking for to "shock the fucking house," then we really did "shock the fucking house"!
The "White Rose" fans, with the idea of "breaking the jar, breaking it", stretched their necks and continued to repeat these lyrics loudly in the stands.
"WhohadthewhataGOAL?"
"WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO? WHO?"
“HULAI’swhataGOAL!”
"HU! HU! HU! HU! HU!"
The devilishly brainwashing lyrics and melody echoed repeatedly on the court, and some people actually started to sing along with "HU! HU! HU! HU! HU!"...
※※※
Note 1: The song "Wholetthedogout?" has a profound impact on this book, because the protagonist's name comes from the song's empty-eared name "Whole Left Hand".
So after I gave the protagonist this name, I already decided to use this song as Hu Lai’s character’s cheering song.
The style is also highly consistent with Hu Lai's own characteristics. It can be said to be a match made in heaven!
After all, Hu Lai is a real dog...
However, because I am an English idiot myself, in order to cobble together the homophones of the original lyrics, I asked some readers in the group for advice, and finally came up with this version. Maybe the grammar or interpretation doesn’t completely match the Chinese translation, but that’s the meaning, and everyone can understand it. (End of chapter)
