"Leeds City is about to make a substitution! When the team was lagging behind, Tony Clark decided to replace Hu who was resting on the bench..."
When Matthew Cox said this, the Hulay man was standing next to the fourth official on the sidelines. The fourth official raised the substitution sign and signaled No. 9 Lorenzo Esposito to leave the field and No. 14
Hu Lai is coming on.
Deafening cheers rang out over the Flanders Stadium, followed by applause.
Looking around, the Leeds City fans in the stands stood up and applauded.
They were supposed to be applauding captain Lorenzo Esposito, who was substituted.
As a major contributor to the team's promotion to the Premier League, captain Lorenzo has always been diligent, low-key and humble in the team, and is loved by others.
The fans love him too.
Although he didn't perform well in this game, the fans still gave him applause.
After Lorenzo high-fived Hulay who was waiting for him on the sidelines, Hulay ran onto the field and he himself returned to the bench.
Cheers from the stands replaced applause.
Francis, who was sitting in the box, looked at the Leeds City fans in the stands below.
It was certain that their cheers were for Hu Lai.
If you don’t watch the game and just listen to the cheers, you will definitely think that Leeds City scored to equalize the score...
Obviously, Hulay enjoys a very high status in this stadium.
He doesn't have to do anything, just show off, and he can make 30,000 people fall in love with him.
This is not surprising.
With his performance, it would be strange if he did not receive such treatment in Leeds City. Of course, Francis would want this, because it would mean that Hulay would easily leave Leeds City.
Now... he has to consider whether Leeds City Club can withstand the pressure of the fans and let Hu Lai go.
But overall, Francis is not very worried about this issue.
Because there has never been any precedent that the club will not sell anyone if the fans protest.
Even if some are temporarily successful, they will eventually be sold.
Although professional football cannot lack fans, in many cases, fans really cannot have the final say on many things.
As long as the price is right, there's no one the King of Madrid can't get!

When Hulay came on, it was a dead ball opportunity caused by Leeds City's throw-in in the frontcourt.
After he was replaced, he ran straight to Tramed's penalty area, and then said hello to Tramed's Brazilian center back Luis Payson in the penalty area: "Have you eaten, brother?"
Payson:???
Seeing this, Hu Lai smiled again and said: "It's okay, you go and do your business, don't worry about me."
"Why don't I care about you? I'm responsible for defending you, Hu." Payson said in a deep voice.
"Ah? Really?" Hu Lai showed a look of surprise, and then asked: "Brother, guess, will I pass the ball to Laski this time?"
Payson didn't expect Hu Lai to mention this matter, so he reflexively glanced in the direction of Lasky. At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Hu Lai suddenly rushing forward!
Damn it!
Payson quickly chased after him and reached out to interfere.
But he failed to catch Hu Lai, because Hu Lai suddenly stopped and retreated... just passing him!
At the same time he saw the football flying in from the wing!
The hasty and continuous changes in the center of gravity made it impossible for him to take off at this time, so he could only stand there and turn his head to watch the football fly over his head and fly towards Hu Lai behind him!
Hu Lai has taken off!
There was no Tramed player left or right behind him. Scott Wilson was blocking the front line, and right back Joseva Iglesias was guarding Laski. They handed Hulay to Payson, and Payson
Sen lost Hu Lai!
"Hu!!"
Seeing Hulay taking off in the open space, the cheers in the stands of Flanders Stadium were uncontrollable.
Hu Lai in the air shook his head towards the flying football and hit the goal!
The distance was too close, and Tramed's goalkeeper Tom Walker had no time to react. He could only stand on the goal line, turn his head and watch the football fly into the goal...
"Huh!!! Wow!! Wow!!! Oh oh oh oh oh!!" Matthew Cox's shouts sounded simultaneously with the cheers of Leeds City fans in the stands.
"This is his first touch of the ball since he came on the field! His first touch of the ball! Only twenty seconds have passed since he was substituted! After destroying the 'Iceberg' Albertazzi with his 'hat trick'
, Hu’s condition is very good! He equalized the score for Leeds City!!”
※※※
When Hulay scored, Francis was so shocked that he stood up from his seat.
He was completely unprepared. Hu Lai could score with his first touch of the ball just after he came on the field...
Although I have followed Hulay for a long time, I have also watched some of his games live, such as the last game when Leeds City challenged Ferenc.
But when Francis sat down to watch the Hulay game for the first time, he realized things that could not be reflected in the TV broadcast...
He seemed very relaxed after taking the field.
For him, he had just participated in a life-and-death battle in the Europa League and returned to the league. Even when facing a strong opponent like Tramed, he acted as if he was on vacation.
Relaxation may be an important reason for him to quickly enter the state after playing and exert 100% energy.
This guy...has a big heart!
For the super-rich King of Madrid, who is always under the spotlight and being observed with a magnifying glass, it is simply perfect!
Because the fans of the King of Madrid are very demanding. For other teams, being able to play at home means glory and great support.
But for the players of the Madrid Kings... playing at home often means heavy pressure.
Because your performance is slightly unsatisfactory, you will hear unceremonious boos from the home fans, and the local media will also criticize your performance at length, amplifying every move you make on the court and even in life.
Without strong mental endurance, you cannot gain a foothold in Madrid.
And now according to his observation, Julay just has a capital that can gain a foothold in the King of Madrid!

Hulay's goal after coming off the bench helped Leeds City draw 1:1 with Tramed at home.
This result is a completely acceptable result for Leeds City, which does not care much about league results.
Tramed didn't think so...
Because they want to take revenge.
The two sides met for the first time in the league this season in the fourteenth round.
Coincidentally, Leeds City had just finished a European match at that time. They defeated Catalonia 3:2 away from home, and Hulay completed a hat-trick in that game.
Now, Leeds City has just finished a Europa League game, also away from home, defeating Ferenc 3:0, and Hulay scored another hat-trick.
In the last meeting, Hulay scored a goal and made two assists in the game, helping Leeds City defeat Tramed 3:2 away from home, which frustrated the "Red Witch"'s desire to take revenge at home.
At the same time, it also further intensified the hatred between Leeds City and Tramed, two teams with their own regional grudges.
So this time Tramed challenged Leeds City away from home, and still had the same goal to defeat Leeds City.
In the end, who would have thought that Hulay would score the goal with his first touch of the ball after coming off the bench, which frustrated Tramed's desire for revenge once again.
"It seems that if Tramed wants to succeed in revenge, he can only wait for one more season..." Matthew Cox joked at the end of the game.
At the end of the game, the Leeds City fans collectively shouted at the Tramed fans in the visiting team's stands:
After chanting, the fans collectively laughed at Tramed.
This is also because the previous video was so popular on the Internet that all Leeds City fans have remembered this slogan.
I believe that in future games, Leeds City fans will inevitably greet visiting team fans like this.

Francis walked into the Leeds City dressing room after the game.
The Leeds City players were very enthusiastic about Francis' visit. After all, he is a legendary figure. Louis Francis, one of the Four Kings, is the idol of many players! Everyone rushed to shake hands with Francis, and Francis would also shake their hands.
Make small talk and praise their performance.
Although Francis has an official status as the ambassador of the King of Madrid, there is no conflict between Leeds City and the King of Madrid. If Francis is the representative of the Catalan Federation, then maybe everyone will be embarrassed...
If the current situation is embarrassing, it would probably only be awkward when Francis and Hu Lai meet.
But when Francis actually met Hu Lai, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"I'm impressed by your performance, Hu." Francis opened his arms as soon as they met.
Hu Lai had been playing football abroad for so long. How could he not understand what this meant? So he hugged Francis and exchanged greetings: "Thank you, Mr. Francis, thank you!"
"It's amazing to score a goal with the first touch of the ball after being replaced." Francis gave a thumbs up and kept praising Hulay.
Hu Lai smiled and said: "Hey, good luck, good luck..."
"That's not good luck." Francis smiled and shook his head, "You are an outlier in today's football, Hu. But I am glad that there are outliers like you. You have restored the center to its true colors... Well done.
!congratulations!"
Hulay humbly accepted all of Francis' praise.
Perhaps because he gained experience after playing football abroad, Hu Lai did not show any shyness or cowardice when facing Francis. Although the person standing in front of him was Louis Francis, one of the "Four Kings", who was a living person.
legend.
Instead, he started to think wildly, thinking of Brother Huan, who was known as "Francis of China".
So he took the initiative to ask Francis for a photo: "Can I take a photo with you, Mr. Francis?"
Francis was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Hu Lai, who had been quite calm before, finally showed his fan side...
But he didn't refuse, which was actually a good thing for him. He nodded repeatedly: "Of course, no problem!"
"That's great!" Hu Lai handed the mobile phone to Junpei Morikawa next to him, and the staff next to him also raised his mobile phone. This can be regarded as a glorious moment for Hu Lai and Leeds City...
Francis took the initiative to put his arm around Hu Lai's shoulders, and the two were close to each other, looking very intimate.
In this way, in the Leeds City dressing room, Hulay, who was naked to the waist, and Francis, who was in a suit and tie, completed a photo.
And before leaving, Francis did not say that half-joking remark to Hu Lai.
