Chapter 31: The Side Corridor

The race between Blue River and DL City began. Blue River's opponents are students at a football school in DL City, which is well-known in several nearby cities and has produced many professional players, including some well-known players who have played in the Chinese Super League.

Liu Haoxuan sat on the sidelines and watched for a while, but he was secretly frightened.

Some of the players who played against the Blue River team were not very old, the oldest was only in his twenties, and a few even looked younger than Liu Haoxuan. However, the Blue River team did not have a slight advantage on the field. In addition to Li Hongkai, Wei Xing, Zhou Jun and a few other people such as the fullback who was opposite Liu Haoxuan that time, the rest of the Blue River team couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the opponent's game.

Is the gap between professional and amateur really so big?

Liu Haoxuan couldn't help but think. But after looking at it for a while, I found that it was not that the technical level of the professional team was much higher than that of the Blue River team, but that the level of football that was exposed to it was different. In the case of similar skills, the players of the DL City Football School are obviously handling the ball, and the football literacy of running without the ball is higher than that of the Blue River team.

After another attack by the Blue River team was inexplicably broken by a few children who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, they directly made a long pass to find their striker. The pass was flat and steady, with a slight arc, and extremely accurate, showing the passer's superb long passing.

"Good shot!"

Although he was not a teammate in the same camp, Liu Haoxuan couldn't help but secretly whisper cheers for him.

The opponent's striker, a player wearing the No. 9 jersey, stopped the good ball steadily, and faced Li Hongkai's and the Blue River team's back two people from different directions, and directly knocked the ball down. The soccer ball rubbed the turf and quickly jumped through the gap between the unfinished bag between Li Hongkai and the two.

At this moment, a player suddenly appeared from behind the number 9 and plugged in at high speed in the direction of the ball. In the face of the goalkeeper of the Blue River team, the player, who had just caught up with the football, suddenly fired a low shot, and the ball flew into the goal from the goalkeeper's feet against the turf.

"Beep!"

The student team leads 1:0.

At this time, Li Hongkai found the referee and made a gesture for substitution. The Blue River team was replaced on the 8th and on the 16th. Seeing that Liu Haoxuan was about to be replaced, Blake turned on the camera he brought.

"Xiao Liu, you're welcome."

As soon as Liu Haoxuan was substituted, Zhou Jun ran to his side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a bright smile.

"Haha, don't worry, Brother Jun, pass a few more good balls." Liu Haoxuan turned around and smiled at Zhou Jun, his expression relaxed.

Zhou Jun has a high opinion of Liu Haoxuan, Liu Haoxuan not only plays the ball well, but also seems to look very good in his heart, and he does not feel nervous about just entering a new team, and he can't help but feel a little more good for this new teammate who has a cheerful personality and excellent ball skills.

"Good! Come on, let their group of students see how good we are. After speaking, Zhou Juncai remembered that the little brother opposite him seemed to be a student baby, and he was also a high school student in a regular school.

Liu Haoxuan didn't care. The game started again, Liu Haoxuan wore the No. 16 jersey and stood in the right midfielder position, and the No. 8 who was replaced just now has always played in this position.

After the Blue River striker kicked off, he passed the ball back to the forward midfielder Zhou Jun.

Zhou Jun was not in a hurry to organize a forward attack after getting the ball, and now he had just conceded a goal, and his eager attack couldn't help but be a little careless. So in the midfield, he fell to the foot with a few players, Zhou Junyou wanted Liu Haoxuan to touch the ball more, and also to be more familiar with his teammates in the Blue River team, half of the several passes were passed to Liu Haoxuan.

Wei Xing saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but be a little unconvinced, he didn't play as well as Liu Haoxuan in the last game. After coming to the Blue River team, Li Hongkai and Zhou Jun looked at him differently, and more importantly, Li Hongkai actually promised Liu Haoxuan that he could introduce him to the professional team. Although he also knew in his heart that Liu Haoxuan's potential was not comparable to himself, his proud heart couldn't help but be a little unhappy.

Liu Haoxuan also seemed to understand Zhou Jun's intentions, and after receiving the pass, he didn't stay at his feet for long, and passed it out directly, taking the opportunity to observe the playing habits of his teammates and the strength of his opponents.

The defender of the Blue River team on Liu Haoxuan's side is a middle-aged man about thirty years old, wearing a blue No. 14 jersey, medium size, not fast, but he has good physical fitness and rich experience, but he is too honest to dare to leave his defense area, let alone insert an assist.

On the student team's side, Liu Haoxuan was opposite a teenager about eighteen years old, wearing a No. 6 team uniform, very fast, but his technique seemed to be a little rough. Behind him, is the left fullback on the left side of the student team, twenty-one and twelve years old, through the observation of this time, Liu Haoxuan found that this person is fine when defending, but his temperament seems to be very impatient, and he always wants to insert assists.

After opening for so long, the right side of the Blue River team attacked unfavorably, the No. 8 technique that was replaced by Liu Haoxuan just now was not good, and he was a little old, and the No. 14 right fullback was not light, and the right side of the Blue River team was wasted. Even when the opposing left wing-back was up front most of the time, almost using himself as a wing-back, leaving a large gap at the back, the Blues were unable to open up any effective attack on the right flank.

When the observation was almost over, Liu Haoxuan once again received Zhou Jun's pass, took a trip forward, and began to dribble the ball. Facing the No. 6 full-back who ran over to scramble, Liu Haoxuan did not raise his speed at this time, and slowly took small steps to dribble the football.

At this time, when Liu Haoxuan saw that the No. 6 student team was approaching him, he moved the football to his right foot, pushed the ball to the left a few times with the inside of his right foot, and did not change his foot, and followed with his left foot a few steps. At the same time, the body leaned to the left, as if to break through from his left side.

No. 6 accelerated at this time, and he wanted to rely on his proud speed to block Liu Haoxuan's breakthrough route first, and then use his toes to catch the football.

Seeing that he was about to touch the football, Liu Haoxuan's right foot suddenly moved to the left rear of the ball, and quickly pushed the ball to the left side of No. 6 with the outside of his right foot, and then accelerated past him and chased the football that rolled past him.

didn't have the heart to take care of the No. 6 who was being easily passed by himself, Liu Haoxuan had already caught up with the football and met the left fullback who ran to the midfield. Liu Haoxuan suddenly remembered what Blake had said to himself two days ago, and wanted to give it a try.

Facing the left fullback of the student team who rushed over, Liu Haoxuan suddenly stepped on the ball and stopped urgently, and then knocked the outside of his right foot to the sideline. The left wing-back didn't expect the ball to suddenly change direction, the brakes couldn't be met, and his body was already in control of the overrun.

Liu Haoxuan's body started again at this time, and he accelerated sharply, catching up with the football that was about to roll out of the sideline.

With no one obstructing him, Liu Haoxuan easily controlled the ball. After passing the two defenders on the wing, the right side has become Liu Haoxuan's private corridor. The wide and flat backfield allows him to run freely.
