Chapter 144: Shoot, Hulai!

The head coach of the Argentine Olympic team, Rosas, stood at the very edge of the coaching command area, and one foot was almost on the end of the field.

This fully shows the anxiety and tension in his heart.

He has just received the news that Belgium is 2-1 ahead of Nigeria, Nigeria is still very good, pulling one back after two goals down, and is currently only one goal behind.

However, it will be too difficult for Nigeria to qualify from this group, and they are doomed to fall out of the Group of Death by failing to beat the weakest China in their first game.

Unless they score twice in the last few minutes to win the comeback, they will have a chance to compare goal difference, total goals and wins with Belgium.

Rosas doesn't care if Nigeria qualify, but he's grateful for the tenacity of the African side, with Belgium now having a goal difference of two. And if Argentina can score a goal at the last moment, after winning 3:2 against China, the goal difference will also be two.

With the same number of points and the same goal difference, the total number of goals scored will be determined for both teams who are top of the group.

In terms of total goals, Argentina, which won 3:2, had one more goal than Belgium, who won 2:1.

Just one more goal will allow Argentina to beat Belgium and win the group.

But only if Argentina have to score a goal in the remaining minutes of this game!

You have to win the game, or you won't even get three points, so what are you daydreaming about here?

※※※

Melly stood on the field, his hands on his hips, and his breath was much heavier than before.

In this game, as Argentina's main attacker, he dribbled forward again and again, constantly retreating and then turning and sprinting, and his physical exertion was particularly large.

He looked at the players of the Chinese team opposite, and there were few who were better than him. He was still able to stand up straight, and the Chinese players all bent over, their hands on their knees, and their mouths wide open and panting, like fish out of water.

But it was these embarrassed Chinese players who didn't score a single goal in the second half.

Ring after link, they formed a chain in front of him, trying to bind him.

And he was really tied up and couldn't do anything......

At first, when Hulai also scored twice, he thought Hulai was his opponent. But now that he thinks about it, his real opponents have always been these inconspicuous Chinese team players in front of him.

When Mei Li was looking at his opponents, Li Chengwu, who replaced Guo Junfu, was saying to Gao Ruimin: "Mei Li is also tired, look at him like that......"

Gao Ruimin glanced up at Melly with his hands on his hips, and then smiled: "Hey, Director Shi is right." Isn't the game about killing us before they kill us? We don't feel good, and neither do they. Dry! Fight with them to the end, it's not too many minutes to die! ”

With that, he spat on the turf.

Li Chengwu said: "I don't have a card on me yet, I can foul in a while." ”

Gao Ruimin nodded when he heard this, and didn't say anything, now is not the time for him to be reckless.

He was largely a game against Meli and because of this, he received a yellow card shortly after the start of the second half. And Guo Junfu also received a yellow card for a foul when defending Meili before he was replaced.

It can be said that Meli alone let the three main players of the Chinese team get yellow cards, which also shows Meli's strength.

※※※

Melilla raised her hand for the ball...... Martinez passed the ball...... Sure enough, Argentina's offensive engine is still Meli, and only he can pose a threat to the Chinese team's backline......" He Feng felt a little sour when he said this.

He thought to himself that as far as Argentina showed in this game, if there was no Meli, our Olympic team would even be able to beat them...... But alas, they have one Merry that is enough to suppress us.

Alas......

Melly didn't go straight to the middle after taking the ball, but dribbled forward along the wing.

Chen Xingyi chased after him, in terms of running speed, he was actually faster than Merley, but Merley's combination of man and ball was so good, no matter how fast he was, it was useless, he couldn't get out of his feet, he couldn't break the ball, so he could only run with him.

Li Chengwu rushed over from the middle and joined the team of escorts, but he had an advantage in physical strength, and kept squeezing Meili in the process of accompanying him. Because he doesn't have a card on his body, he doesn't have any worries, so he naturally has to be more open.

Melly felt the impact of Lee Chengwu during the dribble, and this open-minded defensive style really made him feel the pressure.

He wanted to get rid of Li Chengwu, so he first made a gesture to pass the ball to Cantero, who was receiving him in front, but after slashing his right foot, he only flicked a false shot, and in the process of retracting it, he knocked the football to the middle to throw Li Chengwu away.

Just when he was competing with Li Chengwu, Chen Xingyi, who had always had a weak sense of presence next to him, suddenly accelerated when he saw the time, changed direction and accelerated before Meli, and then made a kick first, stabbing the football that Meli knocked over!

"Chen Xingyi! Nice steal! He Feng shouted excitedly. With a few minutes left in the game, this successful steal was a great morale boost! ”

Chen Xingyi almost just caught up with the football when Argentina's Martinez pounced. In a hurry, he could only poke the football again and stab it to Gao Ruimin, who received him.

Then he jumped up and crashed into Martinez, and both fell to the ground.

But the referee's whistle didn't sound, and he saw Gao Ruimin receive the ball and chose to let the game continue.

At this moment, Gao Ruimin is faced with a choice - is he choosing to fall down in the backcourt and hold his feet firm, and delay a little longer? Or choose to counterattack as soon as possible, after all, Argentina is now in an unstable state of offensive and defensive transition......

Just then he heard a loud shout from Hulai: "To Luo Kai!" ”

He looked up and saw that the Luo Kai people had already rushed forward like arrows from the string!

Don't hesitate any longer, his teammates have already made a choice for him - counterattack!

He raised his foot and kicked the ball forward, making a long diagonal pass, not having to be too precise, as long as he could pass the ball in that direction.

Anyway, Argentina is just attacking, and there are still a lot of gaps in the backfield.

"Gao Ruimin made a long pass to find Luo Kai! The Olympic team still wants to fight back! ”

"That's right, He Feng! Burn the fire of war to the opponent's half, the best defense is to attack! Attacking with a sharp counter-attack to make Argentina throw a mouse, not daring to press with all their might, can reduce the pressure on our backline......"

Luo Kai glanced back as he ran forward to confirm whether Gao Ruimin had passed the ball to him.

When he saw the football flying towards him, he felt a burst of joy in his heart.

This is the opportunity I have been waiting for three games!

His first goal of the Olympics!

The soccer ball landed in front of him, and his desperately swinging arms led his legs to accelerate towards the ball.

His starting speed is not as fast as Chen Xingyi, and his advantage is in the rear acceleration. As the saying goes, "the faster you run, the faster".

Argentina's left central defender Sandiego Sweeney was in front of him, and he wanted to come up and break the ball early, but after seeing the sprinting speed shown by Rokai, he directly began to retreat - just worried that his speed could not match the opponent, and the opponent gave it to him in one trip......

"Luo Kai caught up with the ball!" He Feng's excited voice trembled. A very bold idea was taking shape in his mind - can we still kill Argentina?!

When this thought squeezed out of his mind, he even shivered, startled by his own thoughts.

No, impossible, absolutely impossible, how can we kill Argentina?

He Feng kept shaking his head in his heart and denying it, but this was more like a self-deceptive act of accumulating character......

While Rokai caught up with the ball on the wing, the Argentine players were desperately trying to get back into defence.

Centre-back Juan Sosa, right centre-back Matthias Caperi, midfielder Enzo Diaz, left wing-back Augusto Cardoso and even Melly Banega all swept back.

Luo Kai didn't care about that, he brought the football and killed Sweeney!

He still remembers that Coach Shi said that this kid has a bad brain, is easy to be impulsive, and is a weakness in the Argentine backline.

He's going to trouble this weakness now!

Sweeney saw that his opponent was coming at him, and cursed in his heart, but he didn't pounce on impulse, but reduced his speed and fought and retreated, not giving Luo Kai a chance to force his breakthrough by speed.

At half-time, he was scolded in the dressing room by manager Rosas for missing the first goal. Although he explained that it was because he thought goalkeeper Marinelli had made the attack, it clearly did not make the manager forgive him for his mistake.

Sweeney, who was cleaned up by the head coach, is now much more honest, and his performance in the second half is also remarkable, not good, the main thing is not to make mistakes again, not to make those low-level mistakes.

Luo Kai didn't know this, and after he dribbled the ball to kill, he found that Sweeney did not come up to "fight abroad" with him, but kept retreating, which made him a little uncomfortable.

Without getting rid of Sweeney quickly, his first Olympic goal would not have been possible.

So he changed his strategy, accelerated the change of direction, and tried to cut inside.

Sweeney followed.

Seeing this, Luo Kai slammed the football to the outside with the outside of his right foot, and then changed direction to kill back to the side, making a posture to break through from the side.

Sweeney didn't dare to slack off, so he had to change back again.

As soon as he changed back, Luo Kai's right foot buckled the ball to the middle again, changing direction again!

"Continuous change of direction!"

Sweeney was under tremendous pressure on Rokai's successive downward knees, but he still stubbornly turned back, but his body was already staggering.

Luo Kai didn't give him a chance to adjust, he directly knocked the football into the penalty area, and then bypassed it from the other side!

"The ball has been divided!!"

There was a huge cheer from the stands, which came from the Chinese fans.

There was also a huge boo, which came from the Argentine fans.

However, when Rokai entered the box, he found that the captain of the Argentine Olympic team, Juan Sosa, had also appeared in front of him and was stuck on his inside.

Rokai, who regained his footing, did not get a shot on goal just because he broke through Sweeney.

Although Sweeney was humiliated by Rokai, his caution and tenacity until then bought the most precious time for the Argentine Olympic team.

Now Juan Sousa has regrouped his defence in front of Roque.

And he is far more difficult to deal with than Sweeney, and with the tight space in the penalty area, there is no way to let Luo Kai use the continuous change of direction that he is good at to shake off Sosa's defense.

Of course, Luo Kai can also shoot directly through Sousa.

It's not like he hasn't scored anything like this.

But this is in the Olympic arena, and he is also facing a world powerhouse like Argentina.

Last but not least, this is likely to be the last chance for the Chinese Olympic team to score in this game......

If you don't get in...... He couldn't help but think of the goal on target against Nigeria, if that goal had been scored, the Chinese team might have been able to win Nigeria in the end, and there would have been no need to work so hard in this game against Argentina......

In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Luo Kai's mind.

He hesitated.

Sweeney, who was passed, also took the opportunity to kill back, and together with captain Juan Sosa, he formed a siege of Rokai......

Luo Kai could feel the pressure from both directions, and the time and space left for him to think about were infinitely approaching zero.

He had to make a decision to force a shot and fight for his first goal of the Olympics, even though he would put the team's hopes of victory on the line. Still is......

Juan Sousa saw the Chinese player's movements suddenly slow down, and it was clear that he didn't know what to do. Seeing this, Sosa did not rush to steal, but continued to maintain his current defensive movements, stuck on the inside of the opponent, and did not let him break through anyway, and he could also block the shot.

Even if he doesn't do anything and traps the opponent like this, this defense will be considered a success.

At this moment, he saw that the opponent who was bowing his head suddenly used the outside of his right foot to flick the football near the baseline again, and then picked up a kick to shoot!

He hurriedly took a step and blocked the angle of the opponent's shot.

But when the opponent kicked it out, he passed the football out!

An inverted triangle pass!

Sweeney, who was in the back, stretched out his foot and the ball hit his calf bone, and instead of flying off the baseline, he jumped high and flew behind them.

If you want to shoot, you can definitely shoot, but what if someone is in a better position than me, the chances of scoring are better?

Luo Kai knew that the man must have caught up, so he chose to pass the ball out and give up the chance to score, just to get a more stable result.

After passing the ball, he lost his balance and fell to the ground, not forgetting to look back behind him.

In the direction he came all the way back, that nasty figure arrived as scheduled!

He laughed.

You owe me, Hulai.

※※※

"Inverted triangle pass – Hulai !!" He Feng roared to the point that his voice was almost broken.

The small living room in front of the TV was unusually quiet, Xie Lan and Hu Lixin were both looking at the TV in amazement, unable to make any sound, not even breathing, like two statues.

※※※

Melly ran all the way and was about to chase back to the penalty area, and in front of him was the Chinese team No. 14, Hu, who had already scored two goals.

All eyes were on the Chinese No.9 with the ball, but Meli intuitively thought that this man might be the most dangerous man in the attack.

Victory was in sight, so he sped up to try to cling to his opponent.

At that moment, he noticed that the number nine had passed the ball out, and the target was exactly the number fourteen!

But just as he was catching up with Fourteen, the latter suddenly made a sudden stop and flashed himself to the front.

Not only did he stop suddenly, but he quickly took a step back and distanced himself from Melly.

And the football, after hitting Sweeney in the leg, bounced high and flew to the place where he was retreating!

※※※

"Ah——!h Xu Wen couldn't help but let out a low snort, she seemed to be more nervous than her own competition.

Beside her, Li Qingqing's lips opened lightly, and she read silently:

Shoot, Hulai!

※※※

"Shoot!!" In front of the TV, Zhang Qinghuan stood in front of the sofa, his hands clenched into fists and yelled. It was as if Hulai was five meters in front of him, as if they had fought side by side countless times before.

He passes the ball to Hulai and then shouts "shoot" and Hulai turns his pass into an assist.

Qin Lin's eyes were fixed on the projection screen, and the figure in the penalty area was reflected in his pupils - he was looking up at the flying football, his left leg in front of him, supporting his body, and at the same time swinging his hips and twisting his body, driving the right leg that was dragging behind......

This is the kick-kick style to shoot!

※※※

Hulay watched as the ball fell from the sky, getting bigger and closer to him.

Juan Sosa had already turned and rushed at him, but he didn't see it at all and didn't care.

He balances with his arms outstretched, leans to the left, and swings his right leg.

When his pupils were all filled with the reflection of the football, his left leg supporting his body was pressed almost at a forty-five degree angle to the ground, and his right leg was almost flush with his waist, as if it was about to fold with his upper body.

Then he hit the soccer ball with a solid instep on his forefoot!

The dirt and grass clippings caught between the spikes were swept away, like the tail flames of a soccer ball.

The soccer ball whistled over Melly Banega's head, and he didn't even see the ball clearly, only to feel a gust of wind blowing his hair overhead......

Fifteen meters is the distance from where Hulay shot to the goal line.

In less than half a second, it was the time it took for the ball to fly from Hulai's foot to the goal.

When the ball lifted the net in the goal, Argentina's goalkeeper Rino Marinelli had just taken to the air and waved his arms......

※※※

As Shi Wuyun said at halftime, the game is like this, either you are killed by your opponent or you kill your opponent.

The Chinese team and the Argentine team are like two people who have been stabbed twice, hugging each other and biting. No one could pull them away, and no one dared to step forward and pull them away.

They gasped, cursed and swore in their mouths, desperately swinging their fists at each other.

Before you shed the last drop of blood, you must kill your opponent first.

Argentina has a thicker foundation and is riding on the Chinese team, and its fists are raining down on the Chinese team.

And what about the Chinese team?

Although he had been beaten and his face was covered in blood, he only covered his face with one hand, and the other hand was unwillingly groping on the ground next to him.

Then I felt a brick, picked it up and slapped it on the temple of Argentina!

Argentina, who was in the middle of the fight, fell backwards on his back, splattering dust and blood.
