Chu Yifan had already stood up from his seat, and none of his roommates were sitting in their seats, all of them were standing and watching the game.

The game has been going on for more than 20 minutes, and the score is still 0:0.

Without Luo Kai, Dongchuan Middle School did not fall as some people imagined.

On the contrary, they have had a lot of dealings with the fourth place people's middle school in the last session, and they are not left behind at all.

This made Chu Yifan feel embarrassed.

Last year, they Dongchuan Middle School participated in the national competition for the first time, and the first round of the competition and Xizi Middle School had a back and forth, and they still had the upper hand. But what level is Xizi Middle School? The fifteenth place in the last national competition.

In the second round, Dongchuan Middle School met the top four team Huitang Middle School, and the scene fell into passivity for a while.

Now, after a year, Dongchuan Middle School faced the top four people's middle schools in the first round of the competition, and it can be like playing the top 16 teams......

This year, Coach Li and everyone in the team have worked hard.

Chu Yifan can see that although today's Dongchuan Middle School is different from the original in terms of staffing, he can still see the overall progress of the team through the performance of his old teammates.

Yan Yan, as the captain of the team and the main central defender, was originally a bit rough. But looking at him in the game against the People's Middle School, he was well founded, much calmer than before, and faintly had the style of a general.

There are also two fullbacks, Wang Junchao, a sophomore in high school last year and a junior in high school this year, who is also someone Chu Yifan knows very well. Another Yang Mingwei was a freshman in high school last year and could only play as a substitute, but this year he has become the team's main fullback.

Their changes are also very obvious, under the tactical requirements of the team, as long as there is an opportunity, they will actively step forward to participate in the attack, just running up and down, it is very physical. But the two men did not show any signs of exhaustion.

Although the game was only 20 minutes old, this kind of back-and-forth sprint is physically demanding. If there is not enough physical fitness as the foundation, then it is impossible for Wang Junchao or Yang Mingwei to implement the tactics of the head coach. This shows that they have really worked hard in the past year's training and improved their physical fitness.

There is also Tang Yuan, who was a winger in the team last year and has now retreated to become a right wing-back. Although it was far from the goal, it was even better. Because the retreat gives him more room to attack, just enough to play to his speed advantage.

This made Chu Yifan feel emotional.

He's been out of the team for less than a year and so much has changed. This team is like a team that was only able to rely on Luo Kai alone.

Everyone is stronger than last year, so this team is naturally stronger than last year.

If the opponent still looks at the Dongchuan Middle School football team with old eyes, I am afraid that there will be a big deviation......

Of course, the biggest change in this team is Hulai.

But what puzzled Chu Yifan was that the People's Middle School didn't seem to see it that way......

From the very beginning of the game, they focused on the midfield and Dongchuan Middle School, and the defense against Hulai was not very strict.

This made it difficult for Chu Yifan to understand, didn't the other party know that Hu Lai scored eleven goals in the Anton Cup and was the top scorer?

Or do they think that as long as they guard against Xia Xiaoyu, they will be able to cut off the passing route to Hu Lai from Dongchuan Middle School?

But just five minutes ago, Hulai had a chance in the penalty area, if it wasn't for his shot that was slightly right, it was blocked by the goalkeeper of the People's High School, Lu Jiachen.

The shot that Hu Lai got was not from Xia Xiaoyu, or even from the Dongchuan Middle School midfielder, but from the cross of fullback Wang Junchao.

After Tang Yuan adducted, he gave way to the side, Wang Junchao pressed all the way, and Tang Yuan played a stacking attack, and finally he successfully crossed on the side.

Shen Yulin grabbed a point in front of the goal, attracting the attention of the opponent's defense, but instead gave Hu Lai a chance, he stopped the ball and shot decisively, and the football was saved by Lu Jiachen.

Although he was unable to score, it also caused a burst of exclamations from the stands.

In fact, this attack was played very concisely by Dongchuan Middle School, taking advantage of the fact that the People's Middle School was entangled in the midfield, and launched an offensive directly from the side.

But this time, the offense that did not cause a goal did not seem to arouse the vigilance and attention of the People's Middle School.

Or they just took this attack as Shen Yulin's failure to grab the point, and Hu Lai picked up a leak in the penalty area.

However, if you lack an understanding of Hu Lai and a lack of understanding of Dongchuan Middle School, you will really think that Xia Xiaoyu is the core of this team.

That's right.

A striker like Hulay is an opportunist who is useless without the support of his team-mates – and it makes sense to know that.

But after Chu Yifan got to know Hu Lai, he thought that the word "opportunist" was used on Hu Lai, not to describe that he could only wait for his teammates to create opportunities before he could threaten, but that Hu Lai's ability to seize opportunities was very strong.

There is a big difference between the two, the former means that there must be someone to deliver the shells for him, so that he can have a chance to score, which is equivalent to feeding him with many, many opportunities.

Hulai scored eleven goals in the Anton Cup and was the top scorer in the Cup. But at the same time, Xia Xiaoyu also contributed ten assists, and he is the assist king of the Anton Cup - but the top scorer has a special trophy, but the assist king does not - these two data are put together, and it is easy to think that Hu Lai is the best scorer who is fed by Xia Xiaoyu's constant feeding of the ball.

But with Chu Yifan's understanding of Hu Lai, he knows that Hu Lai is the kind of striker who is very good at seizing and taking advantage of opportunities. Compared with Luo Kai, the top scorer of the Anton Cup at the time, he was more efficient.

He doesn't need his team-mates to keep feeding him shells to create opportunities for him – of course, it's better to have that condition. But if not, he would have been able to take advantage of the limited chances and score.

You must know that Hulai was not very popular in the team in the past, but despite this, he was not discouraged and took the only opportunity to score......

This is what Chu Yifan thinks of Hu Lai as powerful, and it is also the reason why he agrees with Yan Yan's kid that Hu Lai is the "chosen son".

Too many people are blinded by Hulai's external conditions and style of play, and it is easy to ignore him, even if he scores more goals, they will inevitably have the idea of contempt.

Chu Yifan feels that there should be this kind of fixed thinking from players to coaches in People's Middle School.

And beside him, his roommates also had this idea, and they all paid attention to Xia Xiaoyu, who was outstanding in the warm-up.

"Da Chu, that core player of yours seems to be in some trouble......"

"It's not a little trouble, it's a big problem, right?"

"The 'Four Knights of the White Nights' of the People's Middle School is really not blown, I think it is difficult to compete with them in the midfield of Dongchuan Middle School."

When Chu Yifan heard their words, he didn't refute them, but just smiled slightly, didn't say anything, and continued to watch the game.

※※※

Higashikawa Middle School did have trouble in the midfield.

This kind of trouble is not as simple as Xia Xiaoyu being entangled by someone in the People's Middle School.

But in the overall formation, when Xia Xiaoyu wants to lead the attack of Dongchuan Middle School to develop forward, he will encounter the interception and blocking of the entire midfield of Renmin Middle School in the middle, making it difficult for him to find a way to play the ball forward.

Coupled with Wang Xun's tight defense against him, it also made it difficult for him to control the ball for a long time to find opportunities.

More often than not, for insurance purposes, he has to pass the ball back or horizontally.

Even so, he still had to worry about Song Yu, Zhang Xi, and Yan Zheng's interception of his horizontal and return routes.

But Xia Xiaoyu was not panicked, because their head coach had already made it clear to him long before the game started.

The advantage of the People's High School is a strong midfield, so they will definitely make a fuss about the midfield contention.

Therefore, Dongchuan Middle School's countermeasure is not to entangle too much with the opponent in the midfield, and use the two fullbacks, as well as Tang Yuan's speed, to go directly to the side.

It's okay to be simple and quick when transitioning the ball in midfield, don't be obsessed with having to open up the situation in the middle.

If the timing is not right, if the opportunity is not good, you have to move the football to the side immediately.

So Xia Xiaoyu knew very well that his game was a bait to trick the People's Middle School into paying attention to him, but relaxing on the side.

When he got the ball in the midfield again, the opponent's midfielder Wang Xun pressed up, Xia Xiaoyu could only turn around to protect the football, and then passed the football back to central defender Mao Xiao.

After Mao Xiao received the ball, he passed the football to the right fullback Wang Junchao who went up.

As soon as Wang Junchao got the ball, Tang Yuan immediately pulled the side to respond.

Wang Junchao passed the football over again, and after passing the ball, he continued to run forward.

※※※

Sun Yiming, the head coach of Renmin Middle School, who saw this scene on the sidelines, pouted.

Dongchuan Middle School's game is actually the main side attack...... Does the other party think he can't see this?

After all, the midfield of the People's Middle School is stronger, and many teams will choose to avoid its edge in the middle when facing the People's Middle School.

Sun Yiming looked at the coach's seat of Dongchuan Middle School next door and glanced at the head coach.

But the wing attack still has to play to the middle in the end.

This kind of tactic of flying on both wings and crossing from the wings, and the middle will definitely be equipped with a high striker.

And Shen Yulin, the No. 9 player of Dongchuan Middle School, is just such a high school striker.

Although there is very little information about this person, Sun Yiming still knows that Shen Yulin is good at heading, or only good at heading.

It is precisely because there is such a high school striker who is good at heading that Dongchuan Middle School plays the tactic of side crosses so unscrupulously, right?

But our defenders are not vegetarians, just a high school striker, and it is better to defend.

Sun Yiming snorted in his heart.

If we force our opponents to play against us with wide crosses, then we have the upper hand......

※※※

Wang Junchao's forward insertion not only attracted the attention of Sun Yiming, the head coach of Renmin Middle School, but also the attention of the defensive players of Renmin Middle School.

Immediately, Song Yu came up and blocked Wang Junchao's route to continue to press forward.

At the same time, Zhang Xi also retreated to defend Tang Yuan, who took the ball, in front of Tang Yuan, far away from the left fullback of the People's Middle School, the reason why he was far away and did not directly force up, was to prevent him from forcing a breakthrough with speed - Sun Yiming knew that Tang Yuan's greatest ability was his speed, so he specifically told his players to keep a suitable distance from Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan saw that the People's Middle School was defending on his side, and he did not hesitate, and immediately passed the football diagonally to the other side of the court with a big foot.

Because the ball was on this side before, the defensive focus of the People's Middle School has obviously shifted to this side. So naturally there was a gap on the other side.

The ball flew high over the middle of the pitch and into the left wing.

Another midfielder from Dongchuan Middle School, left wing-back Ma Shuang ran to the sideline and jumped high and used his chest to stop the ball.

And just when he stopped the ball, Yang Mingwei, the left fullback of Dongchuan Middle School, had already stepped forward at high speed and rushed in front of him.

So Ma Shuang directly pushed the football straight out and gave it to Yang Mingwei, who was inserted forward.

At this time, the center of gravity of the formation of the People's Middle School was shifted.

"A precise bigfoot transfer!" The narrator also applauded the transfer of Dongchuan Middle School. When the right side could not continue to develop, he decisively transferred the football to the left, and immediately tore a hole in the defense line of the People's Middle School.

The cheers in the stands also rang out, and Chu Yifan's roommates couldn't help but slap when they saw this shift: "Beautiful!" ”

Chu Yifan withdrew his gaze from the left side and went to find Hu Lai.

Hulay did not rush into the box with his arms raised.

On the contrary, when Dongchuan Middle School's offensive has picked up, others are still outside the penalty area.

However, Xia Xiaoyu and Shen Yulin appeared in the forbidden area of the People's Middle School one after the other, among which Shen Yulin went to the front point, and Xia Xiaoyu went straight to the middle.

Of course, the actions of the two of them were immediately noticed by the two central defenders of the People's Middle School.

Yang Mingwei, who was inserted forward at high speed, caught up with the football and had already reached the offensive third area, he raised his eyes to observe the goal, and then took advantage of the fact that the right back of the People's Middle School had not had time to block his passing route, and decisively crossed with his feet!

Chu Yifan kept staring at Hu Lai and observing, and didn't notice the situation on the side, when he saw Hu Lai suddenly accelerate into the penalty area and run directly diagonally to the back point, he immediately turned his eyes to the side, just in time to see the last action of Yang Mingwei's cross.

The football is already in the air and flying into the box!

Almost at the same moment, Shen Yulin suddenly accelerated and rushed forward to fight for a header.

And the right central defender of the People's Middle School who was blocking the door also immediately accelerated up, and the two of them jumped up at the same time to fight for the header!

This ball still made Shen Yulin, who is better at heading, give it to it.

I saw him nod the ball in front of him and push the ball to the back point.

Goalkeeper Lu Jiachen, who blocked Shen Yulin's shot angle at the front point, reacted quickly enough, and immediately extended his left arm backwards to try to lift the ball off the crossbar.

But Shen Yulin's header this time was of very high quality, and the top was quite tricky, although Lu Jiachen's reaction was fast enough, he only touched the football, and there was no way to lift the football directly off the crossbar.

The ball was held up by his hand for a moment, hit the crossbar, and bounced back into the field!

Xia Xiaoyu, who had rushed straight to the middle before, tried to make up the shot, but he didn't expect the football to go to the back point and just passed by the football.

And another central defender from People's Middle School who came up to defend Xia Xiaoyu only had time to turn around to watch the football, but he couldn't touch the ball.

He was relieved to see that there were still his teammates at the back point......

But before he could fully exhale his breath, a figure wearing a blue and yellow jersey suddenly appeared in his wide eyes, and it covered his teammates!

"An opportunity for Higashikawa Middle School! Shen Yulin's header - ahhh The narrator first shouted and then exclaimed, and in just two sentences, the attack of Dongchuan Middle School experienced a rollercoaster of ups and downs.

But before it was over, before the commentator's "ah" words fell, a player from Dongchuan Middle School suddenly appeared in front of the door of the People's Middle School.

"Hulai!" The commentator only had time to call out the name of the person before he saw Hu Lai grab in front of the right back of the People's Middle School and stretch out his foot to poke the falling football!

The football flew into the goal of the People's Middle School without any suspense and without difficulty......

PS, about this goal, there will also be an easter egg chapter.

However, when I was making the video, I reversed the left and right positions of the opposing players, so everyone will just watch it and understand the meaning......

In addition, because the Easter Egg Chapter cannot be set to be updated on a regular basis.

So if I hadn't gotten up at eight o'clock, I'd probably have put it behind the six o'clock chapter update......
