Chapter 104: A blockbuster
When the players from both sides came out, the TV broadcast gave a close-up of Hu Lai in the Chinese team.
Everyone knows what this shot means.
Obviously, the broadcasters of this tournament also know what happened to Hulai recently.
He Feng, the famous commentator of CCTV Sports Channel, who was in charge of commenting the game, of course, also knew why the broadcaster gave this shot, but he was not good at telling the Chinese fans in front of the TV about the story behind it. After all, he is a commentator of the national television station, and he has commentary discipline, not a commentator of other local stations or online platforms, and he can say whatever he wants.
In fact, at this time, Shen Lang, the commentator of the Chinese online platform Tengfei Video, was talking to the audience of the online platform about what happened to Hu Lai in the past two days......
He Feng can't be so willful, but when a Chinese player appears in a close-up shot, he doesn't say anything, which is also abnormal, so he can only say on this shot: "No. 14 Hu Lai, a player who was selected for the Chinese team for the first time, is a striker." He played for Anton Shining last season and is a team that played in the first division, and he scored eleven goals for the team last season......
Before the East Asian Cup, the Chinese team was assigned numbers before the trip. As Hu Lai heard rumors in high school, in Chinese football, the fourteenth is not an auspicious number, so no one grabs this number with him at all, which is the same as his treatment in the Shining Star Club - no one competes with him for the fourteenth, and the other numbers will be more or less remembered, except for the fourteenth. Because he joined the team halfway last season, the No. 14 had already given the team's original substitute striker Nie Jin, so Hu Lai could not wear the No. 14 again, so he could only pass the No. 33 general. And this season, he successfully took the fourteenth from Nie Jin.
At that time, some teammates joked: Hulai, don't you choose No. 14 for fear of bad luck?
Hulai said that he was a strong man, his liver was strong, all evil did not invade, and he was not afraid of any bad luck at all.
As a result, many people now think of the widely circulated curse number legend in Chinese football.
"Let you choose the Fourteenth! Deserve! β
"I'll just say, all those who don't believe in evil are dead! In these years, there are still people who dare to choose the fourteenth...... Don't you think that's going to happen? β
"14, four, I'm going to die!"
"Die to Hulai! Give me back Guan Xinyan! β
After seeing this scene on the Internet, many fans brushed up a barrage in the broadcast screen of Tengfei Video.
Fortunately, Hulai's mother watched the TV broadcast, not the live webcast, otherwise she would have to be angry with those barrages......
β»β»β»
Hulai, who followed his teammates to the field, had a red string tied around his wrist, which was not very conspicuous.
This is the [Lover's Red Rope] he bought in the official mall with points, which is also a tradition, as long as it is the first show, he will choose to use this to increase his luck. After all, the beginning of everything is difficult, to make the beginning a little easier, he doesn't mind using the power of plug-ins, a good beginning can decide a lot of things.
On the football pitch, there are times when a stroke of luck can make the difference.
The only pity is that the effect of this thing can't be cumulative, otherwise he can pay back several and tie the wrists of both hands......
In addition, he also turned out the [Broken Giant Bear Leggings], which was the reward for the mission, from the warehouse and equipped it.
This decision was made after taking into account the "glorious traditions" of the Korean sports world. Although Hu Lai is also quite heartbroken and a little reluctant, if he is injured in this game, wouldn't it be even more of a loss?
You must know that this is the home of the South Korean team, and they can beat the opponent's head here without being whistled for a foul by the referee...... Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.
After standing on the pitch, the Chinese national anthem was played on the live radio.
In the impassioned national anthem, Hulai held his head high, and his heart was infinitely emotional.
Fortunately, this time and space has only changed in football, and the national anthem has not changed, otherwise there will be no sense of substitution......
Listening to the familiar national anthem now, he has a feeling that his dream is coming true little by little.
I put on the jersey of the Chinese national team, with my number and name on the back, and stood on the international stage as a player of the Chinese national team......
This kind of thing, if I was in the previous time and space, and if I had just traveled to this time and space, it was almost unimaginable.
But now it's a reality.
That's nice......
He raised his head slightly and looked at the fans and spectators waving South Korean flags in the stands.
The East Asian Cup is an international A-level event, and although this team is essentially the national Olympic team, it is nominally the Chinese national team. So strictly speaking, today is the first appearance of Hulay's career for the national team.
In the first game, we played South Korea.
It's really memorable......
Hulay thought to himself.
When the Chinese national anthem was played, the national anthem of the host South Korea was played, and tens of thousands of fans sang the national anthem in unison.
Before the game started, many players of the Chinese Olympic team felt great pressure.
It was as if the Koreans' singing had become something tangible that could actually hurt them.
Seeing this scene, Hu Lai remembered the 2002 World Cup in the time and space he traveled to, which was the only World Cup in which the Chinese team participated, but it was notorious because of the South Koreans' riotous operation.
At that time, the black whistle that was bought out blew away the attacks of the opponents of the Korean team again and again in the game, blew the offense that was not offside into an offside position, blew the ball that was not out of bounds into an out-of-bounds, turned a blind eye to the fouls of the Korean players, but found fault with every move of the opponents of the Korean team with a microscope......
The same is true of these South Korean fans, waving Taiji flags in the stands and chanting "Republic of Korea" to cheer on their "national heroes".
It's ironic.
Thinking of this, Hu Lai couldn't help but sneer.
β»β»β»
After all the pre-match ceremonies have been carried out, the players from both sides are in their positions and the game is about to begin.
Hulai stepped on a football alone and stood in the center circle.
In this game, the Chinese team got the right to kick off.
At this moment, the television broadcast once again gave him a close-up.
Guan Xinyan in front of the TV stared at the figure on the screen, he didn't look strong, and he wasn't outstanding, would Director Shi give up on me for such a person?
He thought it was incredible, and even wanted to laugh.
But the reality was in front of him again.
If Director Shi wasn't closely related to this person, why did he let him start at this juncture?
Before the recent conspiracy theories became loud, he didn't care about Hulai, and he didn't think that Hulai was here to replace him, after all, the National Olympic team is not the only two forwards, himself and Hulai.
But seeing that on the cusp of the storm, Director Shi still insisted on letting Hu Lai be the starter, and he suddenly had a feeling of "being targeted".
Maybe the rumors on the Internet are right, this Hulai came for me in the first place, and my inability to be selected for the national Olympic team is not because I want me to prepare well for the league at the club, but just to make way for me to make way for this kid......
After all, if he is still in the National Olympic team, how can he have the opportunity to play this kid?
Just when Guan Xinyan was thinking so, the referee blew a whistle!
"Game on!!"
β»β»β»
After the start of the game, the Chinese team launched a quick attack and did not pose much threat to the South Korean team's goal.
The ball soon changed hands.
In the live broadcast of Tengfei video, a barrage full of "normal operation" floated by.
However, Shi Wuyun, the head coach of the National Olympic team sitting on the sidelines, seemed quite calm, because this was what he requested.
He has a very detailed plan for how to play after the start of the game.
If the opponent gets the kick-off, then we press from the start.
If we get the kick-off, then we quickly hand over the ball and play an attack, and if we can do it, we will succeed, and if we can't, we will never suffer from gains and losses.
Then let the opponent attack, and we'll do the pressing.
This style of play seems to be giving up the ball and putting yourself in a passive position.
But in fact, it is this kind of passivity that Shi Wuyun wants.
This is the home of the South Korean team, and they have the advantage of strength, so instead of letting the Chinese team rack their brains to figure out how to organize the attack and penetrate the defense of the South Korean team, it is better to do the opposite.
Give the ball to South Korea and let the South Korean team attack, and the Chinese team only needs to do one thing - steal.
Grab it and pass it forward to someone who can pose a threat to the South Korean defence.
When the South Korean team attacked, no matter where they got the ball, at least two Chinese players would pounce on them, even if they were down-footed at the back, and Hu Lai was also in the team.
Even if he is a striker who can only shoot and score, at this time, he must serve the whole team's tactics and cannot be specialized.
The South Korean team obviously did not expect the Chinese team to be so fierce in the opening game, and their players seemed to be in a hurry and unprepared when facing the Chinese team's pressing.
As a result, they were unable to organize an effective attack.
"Ah, the Chinese team launched a fierce scramble against the ball-handling players of the South Korean team from the beginning of the game, and they grabbed it fiercely!" After observing the game for ten minutes, the commentator of South Korean TV finally came to the conclusion that this should be a tactic deliberately arranged by the head coach of the Chinese team, rather than the impulse of the players.
"I have to say that this kind of pressing by the Chinese team has really brought some trouble to our attack...... However, didn't the head coach of the Chinese team consider the physical pressure on the whole team? How long can this intensity of pressing last? The guest commentator on Korean television raised his doubts.
β»β»β»
"Shi Gui intends to use the full-court pressing defense to force South Korea's offense from working smoothly, and judging from the opening 10 minutes of the game, it really worked. The South Korean team has not played any threatening offensive ...... so far," commentator He Feng also saw the tactics of the Chinese team, and then raised questions.
"But to continue playing like this, the physical demands on our players are very high, even if we are fit enough now to be able to stop the South Korean team's attack with this kind of stalking tactics. Even if we were able to prevent the South Koreans from playing effectively throughout the first half, what about after that? What happens after that? What about the second half? With a lot of physical exertion, will our players still be able to limit the South Korean team with this kind of relentless running and grabbing? β
Li Ziqiang in front of the TV was watching the game, also with a calm face, thinking about how to continue the Chinese team's unsustainable tactics.
The advantages and disadvantages of this tactic are obvious, and it is impossible for Shi Wuyun not to know about it.
Why would he do it?
Was it a last resort?
How long do you think it can be delayed, really because of the collapse of physical fitness, lose the game, and still get a reputation of "although defeated"?
In this case, it is not impossible...... But Li Ziqiang always felt that if Shi Wuyun wanted to do this, then he should not send Hu Lai.
Because this kind of thing is not what Hulai is good at. It's not as good as the previous one, a better person, a stronger body, or a faster striker to assist in the pressing, and the effect may be better.
So why is it necessary to start Hulai?
Unless it's not for defense?
Why is that?
What is Hulay good at......
Li Ziqiang thought about it like this, and thought that a lamp was lit in his head.
What is Hulai good at? He's good at scoring goals!
Shi Wuyun put Hulai on the field in order to get him to score......
The ultimate purpose of this set of pressing tactics is naturally not to stop the South Korean team from attacking, to defend, but to attack!
Thinking of this, Li Ziqiang straightened up on the sofa and looked at the TV more intently.
At this moment, the South Korean team is downplaying at the back.
β»β»β»
After the initial panic, the current South Korean team seems to regard the Chinese team's pressing as a "circle grabbing game" in the warm-up, mobilizing the Chinese team players through back and forth, and watching them run exhausted again and again.
It's like walking a dog.
This time they have passed eleven in a row without conceding a goal.
The Korean fans in the stands also know that every pass from the Korean players can make them shout in unison to count the team.
This is not only cheering for his own team, but also ridiculing the Chinese team's compulsion, which can only be done useless.
Amid their cheers, South Korea's right-back Kim Buk-joo passed the ball to the right midfielder Joo Yoon-kyu, who had returned from the front to pick him up.
But while Zhu Yunkui retreated to receive the ball, he was also followed by Liu Jinge, the left back of the Chinese team, a player who is tall enough to play center back, because he is thin and lacks strength, but his speed is okay, so he has always played fullback, with a fierce style, and is especially good at pressing.
Originally, the starter in this position should be Wang Zijian's good friend Sun Gang, but considering the tactical needs of today's game, Shi Wuyun let Liu Jinge start.
Now it seems that he has done a good job.
Even if Zhu Yunkui had returned to the second half to answer, he still followed.
followed behind Zhu Yunkui inch by inch, and kept pulling the opponent's arms, shoulders, jerseys and so on. Let Zhu Yunkui fully feel the pressure.
In addition, Gao Ruimin, the defender of the Chinese team, is also running towards him, trying to clamp him with Liu Jinge.
This made Zhu Yunkui give up the idea of taking the ball and then turning around to break through, and could only pass the football back.
But to whom?
There are three receiving points in the back, one is the fullback Jin Beizhu who just passed the football to him, but Jin Beizhu still has Chinese team players next to him, and he hasn't gone back after going up to grab him just now; One is the central defender Sun Haomin, not far from Sun Haomin, there is also the No. 14 of the Chinese team that has been in trouble recently; The third receiving point, a little more troublesome, is the team's midfielder Kim Ji-hwan. The trouble is that the angle between him and himself is not very good, if he wants to pass the football to him, then he has to step back a little bit and pull out the passing angle, otherwise he will not be able to pass the football to him horizontally under the two guards.
At this moment, he saw that Kim Ji-hwan had indeed retreated, and it was clear that he was aware of the problem - it was safer to pass the ball to a midfielder like him than to let Zhu Yunkui pass the ball to two defenders who were on the backline.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunkui no longer hesitated, and passed the football he had just received directly to Jin Zhihuan.
Under Liu Jinge's pressure, he passed very decisively and hard, and did not give Liu Jinge and Gao Ruimin, two Chinese players, a chance to wrap him up.
"Twelve!!"
South Korean fans in the stands shouted excitedly.
The football was shot at Kim Ji-hwan entirely.
The usually substitute midfielder raised his foot to stop the ball, but he clearly underestimated the power of Zhu Yunkui's pass to him under pressure...... The soccer ball slammed into the inside of his foot and bounced high!
In normal times, such a stop is not a mistake, at most it needs to be adjusted a little more.
But now, when Jin Zhihuan tried to raise his foot and stop, a figure suddenly stepped up from his side and stretched out his foot to stab the football!
"Guo Junfu!" He Feng shouted.
Jin Zhihuan also realized the danger, didn't care about stopping the ball, and hurriedly squeezed up, trying to push the Chinese player away.
The two bumped into each other, and Kim Zhihuan, who started in a hurry, failed to squeeze Guo Junfu away, but let Guo Junfu touch the football forward.
The ball bounced and rolled in the direction of South Korea's centre-back Son Ho-min.
Son Ho-min immediately stepped forward to clear the siege.
Guo Junfu fought for the risk of being injured by colliding with Sun Homin, and took the lead in kicking the ground and shoveling towards the football!
When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!
He felt like he was kicking a football!
Then he collided with Son Ho-min......
He couldn't bother to look at the whereabouts of the soccer ball he kicked anymore.
Because when he was shoveling towards the football, he noticed that there was a figure wearing a yellow jersey just behind Son Ho-min, so he deliberately kicked it towards that side when he tackled......
β»β»β»
"Hulai!!" He Feng shouted.
Li Ziqiang in front of the TV leaned forward, his legs were forced, and his buttocks had been slightly lifted from the soft cushions of the sofa.
Xie Lan let out a scream that could not be suppressed, and she quickly blocked it in her throat with her hand.
Hu Lixin's mouth didn't know when it opened, but no sound came from it.
It's not just them, all the Chinese fans in front of the TV, the Korean fans in the stands, they all see it.
When Son Ho-min rushed to the football, the No. 14 player of the Chinese team did not follow to grab the ball, but quickly glanced at the side behind him, where was the right full-back of the South Korean team, Kim Beizhu, who did not press in time after passing the ball, and remained in place......
He's closer to the bottom line than Hulay!
The ball rolled faster on the pre-game watered turf, almost in the blink of an eye, at Hulai's feet.
He's in a huge void!
"Eh! No offsideββ! He Feng shouted with a trailing voice.
Hulai didn't stop the football, but directly slammed the ball into the penalty area, turned around and chased after it!
"Single Knife Ball! Kim Hyun-yun has attacked! The commentator of the Tengfei video was also chanting.
Floating above the live broadcast screen is still a barrage of Guo Junfu's successful steal......
The entire sky above the Seoul World Cup Stadium was gone, and the jubilant shouts of the Korean fans were gone, leaving only a chaotic stream of boos and screams that could not be heard!
Facing Hu Lai, the South Korean team's substitute goalkeeper Kim Hyun Yun, who started the game, quickly attacked and tried to block the angle of Hu Lai's shot.
But he was only halfway through the run when he saw Hulai, who was catching up with the football, slammed into the ball with the outside instep of his right foot!
It was a shot without warning that had been swinging normally during the run, and had no charge at all!
The ball was bounced into the far corner by Hulay's outside of his right foot!
And because this shot was so sudden, Kim Hyun-yun, who attacked, didn't even have time to fall to the ground to save, his body only dropped by half, and the football slipped through his armpit and crotch!
In the blink of an eye, he rushed into the goal and plunged headlong into the net and did not move!
The boos in the sky were like exploding fireworks, sparsely sparsely spilled from the sky and then blown away in the wind - the Seoul World Cup Stadium, which had been noisy for 16 minutes, suddenly fell into a dead silence.

Those who are pure in the hair, and the son-in-law of Qi is also. Less than seven feet long, funny and argumentative...... The country is in danger, and it lies in the twilight, and the left and right dare not admonish. Chun Yu said in a hidden way: "There is a big bird in the country, stop the king's court, three years without singing and singing, the king knows what this bird is?" The king said, "If this bird does not fly, it will soar into the sky; If you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster. So he ordered seventy-two county commanders, rewarded one, punished one, and went out with a fight. The princes were shocked, and they all invaded the land. Thirty-six years of prestige.
