Pete Williams' pass was very sudden, and Hu Lai was still running back at that time.
But as if he knew what Williams would do in advance, Hulay suddenly turned around and turned back without warning. The whole movement was as smooth as running water, and Jimenez, who was so close, did not react at all.
Fortunately, he knew that Hu Lai was half a body behind him, so the ball should have been offside.
So he raised his hand to signal the referee.
He once again made an empirical mistake, thinking that he was the last man in the Catalan United defense line.
But in fact, in the blind spot of his perspective, Fortune, another central defender of Catalan United, was positioned further behind him, so Hulay was not offside!
This was precisely caused by Jimenez running forward with Hulay just now. He wanted to cut off Williams' passing route to Hulay, but he forgot that when he came, he sent his center back partner Fu
Joan was left behind.
Fortune actually also discovered this problem. He was planning to move his position up and stay on the same line as Jimenez. Hu Lai and Williams completed a very tacit passing and running cooperation...
In the replay of the goal, the TV broadcast thoughtfully framed the scene and then drew two lines on the field.
A blue line is the position at Hu Lai's feet, and a red line is Fortune's position.
The red line is closer to the goal than the blue line, so Hu Lai is not offside!
"Hu Lai! What a chance! Successful counter-offside!"
He Feng roared excitedly.
Xie Lan in front of the TV also stood up excitedly.
Under her nervous and expectant gaze, her son raised his head to observe after catching the ball, and then took a shot!
He rounded his legs, making the attacking goalkeeper Cordero think he was going to volley hard, and his center of gravity was very low.
As a result, Hu Lai picked up the football lightly and let it fly over his head...
"Hey! Spoon! Spoon cumshot!!"
He Feng's ecstasy is most vividly reflected in this explanation: "Hey".
All the Chinese fans in front of the TV could clearly hear his smile hidden behind this sound.
Facing the top giants Catalonia United, Hu Lai, who had the opportunity in hand, behaved so calmly, which is quite a master's style.
Just like when he scored a penalty kick against Brazil in the World Cup group stage.
This really makes Chinese fans feel more encouraged.
So what about the top wealthy families? Our Hu Lai still doesn’t scare you!
There was no suspense about what happened next. The football flew into the goal and Leeds City took the lead 3:2, taking the lead for the second time in this game!
"Hu Lai!! Haha! Hu Lai!!" He Feng's smile that was hidden just now burst out completely this time, and he laughed out loud in the studio. "He scored twice! He scored a goal at the Holy Family Stadium
Twice! This is really... ha! This is really amazing!"
Xie Lan, who was in front of the TV, waved his fist vigorously: "Okay!!"
Hu Lixin, the originally serious-looking husband, also had a relaxed smile on his face.
Regardless of what the final result of this game will be, at least with this goal, Leeds City's tactical room for maneuver will be much greater. The players' mentality is relatively relaxed. In the remaining ten minutes of the game, they
It will be easier to deal with it.
And this was all brought about by his son's goals.
Nowadays, people talk about football tactics in a clear and logical way, such as this and that, what is a forward-less formation, what is a two-winged formation, what is a three-center defender, what is a front-midfielder, what is a shingled attack... all kinds of terms can be used with just one mouth.
There are also various requirements put forward for forwards, such as cooperating with the team's tactics, stretching out of the penalty area, and being more versatile... But they all ignore one thing - all tactics are not ultimately about winning the game.
Aren’t those offensive tactics just for scoring goals?
So since there is such a forward who is very good at scoring, why is there any need to create a "forwardless formation"? And why should he be required to frequently pull out of the penalty area to create space for midfielders to come in behind?
After watching Leeds City's games for so many years, Hu Lixin was most pleased that head coach Tony Clark did not force his son to do a lot of work that had nothing to do with scoring goals.
Hu Lai was given full freedom and respect.
This is also an important reason why Hulay can perform well in Leeds City.
Many professional players do not perform well not because they are not good enough, but because they do not have a coach who knows them well and does not have tactics suitable for them.
And his son was lucky to have a head coach who understood him and a relaxed tactical environment at his first stop abroad.

"You can always trust Hu, Sam!"
Amidst the huge noise, Tony Clark shouted at the top of his lungs to assistant coach Sam Landill who was standing nearby.
Randhir clapped his hands and laughed: "Of course I know, Tony! Of course I know!"
Hu Lai's goal made the two coaches very excited, and at the same time they felt a lot more relaxed.
They can chat and laugh like this in the visiting team's dugout at the Holy Family Stadium.
After talking and laughing, Clark said to Randall: "Let the team continue to attack. There are still more than ten minutes left. Keep attacking them to the end!"
Randhir turned around and went to the sidelines without any hesitation or doubt.
Facts have proven time and time again that Clark's current tactics are the most suitable for Leeds City.
He said to continue the attack, then continue the attack.
Play against Catalonia at the Sagrada Familia Stadium!
This decision even makes Randhir excited just thinking about it...

"Beautiful!" Zhang Qinghuan jumped up from the sofa and cheered, raising her arms high.
Yong Jun beside him applauded.
"Haha!" After Zhang Qinghuan cheered, he turned to Yong Jun and said ostentatiously: "Uncle Yong, look, Hu Lai's shot is also a lob! He must have been inspired by me, ha!"
In the last Barcelona derby, Zhang Qinghuan used a lob to break the goal guarded by Cordero.
"I think this guy needs to treat me to dinner. I've been a big help!"
Yong Jun was amused by Zhang Qinghuan's words: "It's not easy to get him to treat..."

The huge noise at the Holy Family Stadium was mixed with boos and roars, impacting every spectator in front of the TV.
Xia Xiaoyu's eyes widened, the glittering screen reflected in his eyes, his face full of excitement: "Brother Hu is awesome! Brother Hu is awesome!"
In Alvara's reserve team, he is still far away from the Champions League. Although Alvara can participate in the Champions League almost every year, he first has to go from the reserve team to the first team, and then perform well in the first team.
Only after being registered by the club and included in the Champions League squad did he have the opportunity to participate in the Champions League.
As a player of the Chinese Super League championship team, he went to a non-mainstream European league, but could only play reserve team games first. In the past few months, many people were anxious for Xia Xiaoyu and felt that he was not worth it.
But Xia Xiaoyu didn't think so. He felt like he had gone back to the time when he just went to Anton Flash Star from Dongchuan Middle School. He first settled in the youth team for a season, and then went to the first team to compete with Brother Hu, Brother Huan and the others.
Fight alongside.
Without that season in the youth team, he would never have performed as well in the first team.
Every second in the present ultimately shapes who he will be in the future.
It is precisely because of this experience that Xia Xiaoyu knows the benefits of calming down and practicing internal skills hard.
Of course, when you are working hard, you should also watch Brother Hu’s games to cheer yourself up.
It was like a lighthouse, guiding him in the direction ahead.

"Fuck! I'm so envious..." Chen Xingyi cursed as he looked at the figure leaping high in the screen, spreading his legs and landing on the turf of the Holy Family Stadium.
That's the Sagrada Familia! The stadium with the largest capacity in Europe and one of the temples of European football.
Hu Lai has made his signature celebration twice in this stadium.
His father Chen Hantang next to him glanced at him and said: "Don't envy him, your opportunities to play in the team are gradually increasing. Sooner or later, you will be like Hu Lai. As long as you are in the right direction, just keep your head down and go.
Don’t think too much and don’t let yourself get distracted.”
Chen Xingyi nodded.
After the initial adaptation period, Chen Xingyi now not only got the chance to play in the domestic cup, but also made three substitute appearances in the league. Although he did not play much time, the three substitute appearances in total did not exceed half of the total.
hours, but this is indeed a positive sign.
It means that his performance has gradually been recognized by the head coach.
Otherwise, why can he come on as a substitute?
You must know that there are a total of thirty-one players registered in the Amsterdam Athletic first team, and not just anyone can get the chance to come on as a substitute.
Start as a substitute. As long as you can fulfill the head coach's requirements during the game and win the head coach's trust step by step, you will naturally have more playing opportunities waiting for you in the future.
At the beginning, he also doubted whether he would have already played in the Eredivisie if he had not chosen a giant team in Dutch football like Sporting Amsterdam and gone to a mid-to-lower team like Roque.
.
But then he stopped thinking about it.
Because the quality of training you can receive at the Eredivisie giants is definitely incomparable to those in the middle and lower reaches.
He has truly felt the progress he has made since coming to the Netherlands, which shows that high-quality training has greatly improved him, no less than the competition.
During this period, his mentor at Dashun Golden Arrow, Jorge Dillon, specially called to comfort and encourage him, asking him to keep a normal mind, train with peace of mind, and not to be anxious. But at the same time, if there is an opportunity, he should also talk to the head coach frequently.
Communicate and tell the other person your thoughts. Don't just wait foolishly and hope that the head coach will take the initiative to turn his attention to you.
He also warned Chen Xingyi that Chinese players should not carry forward their fine tradition of humility outside, but should be more aggressive, more active, and even learn to be selfish. Show that they dare to compete with other players in daily training
His mental outlook is to make himself a presence that the team's coaching team cannot ignore.
After listening to Dillon's guidance, Chen Xingyi became more active in training.
Sure enough, he started to get more playing opportunities - three substitute appearances happened after that.
The situation is indeed getting better, Chen Xingyi thought in his heart, in the future I will be like that kid Hu Lai, let all Europe know about me!

Jose Bernal shook his fist angrily in front of the home team's coaching bench with a ferocious look on his face.
He was very dissatisfied with the conceded goal.
His team was facing off against Leeds City at their home stadium. Of course he knew that the space behind such an attack would be seized and exploited by the opponent.
But he has absolute confidence in his team's offensive ability.
He believed that Catalonia could break through Leeds City's goal before Leeds City scored, making all the latter's efforts in vain.
But I didn’t expect that Leeds City scored first, making Catalonia United’s efforts come to nothing...
Catalonia United actually let a new Champions League team take the lead twice at their home court!
Could it be that after being equalized by Leeds City just now, he really should have tightened his defense first to avoid its sharp edge, instead of choosing to attack Leeds City?
But this is our home court, and it shouldn’t be us who should be afraid no matter what!
He looked up at the sky, with a bit of confusion and anger in his eyes.
