Juan Ramirez has his sights firmly set on Mellie.
The opponent stood outside the penalty area of the Madrid Kings and became the leading Kings player.
He knew that Melly wanted to take advantage of the set piece to counterattack.
Ramirez doesn't doubt Melly's ability.
He was even prepared for the worst. If Melly counterattacked, Ramirez would not hesitate to foul Melly at the risk of being sent off with a red card.
He now remembered Hu Lai's reminder to him. Obviously Hu Lai knew Melly's next reaction at that time.
Melli was stimulated by Hulay's goal...
Melly didn't care about Ramirez's vigilance towards him, and kept his eyes on the Kings goal.
This corner kick is related to whether he can launch a wonderful counterattack, so he is very concerned about whether his teammates can prevent the Pirates' corner kick attack.
Of the Pirates' two central defenders, Kepa Amantegui is the tallest at 1.89 meters, has excellent header ability and is rich in experience.
Another central defender, Riva Moreno, is only 1.82 meters tall, but he is very accurate in judging where the football will land and is more flexible than Amantegui.
In corner kick attacks, he often does not stand in a fixed place waiting for the header.
Instead, it will suddenly start to insert towards the landing point when the corner kick is taken.
Amantegui is responsible for covering Moreno in corner kick attacks, or picking and rolling.
This is the most commonly used attacking corner kick tactic by Madrid Pirates with these two central defenders.
But now I have to pay more attention to one person.
Hu Lai.
※※※
The Hulay man stood in the penalty area with King midfielder Osei next to him.
Osai put his hand gently on the back of Hu Lai's waist, and suddenly heard the other party say to him: "Don't play tricks, my friend."
Osai was confused. I just put my hand on it. I didn't even pull the jersey. Why was it such a small move?
He retorted: "I didn't..."
"You will pull my clothes when the ball comes out, don't think I don't know." Hu Lai snorted.
Osei admitted that he had this idea, but when someone said it directly, he felt embarrassed: "I don't know how!"
"Then put your hands behind your back."
Osei reflexively wanted to put his hands behind his back, but as soon as he did so, he suddenly realized that I put my hands behind his back, wasn't it just what he wanted? Why should I listen to this kid? He is our opponent!
So he planned to put his hand on Hu Lai's lower back.
Upon noticing this action, Hu Lai sneered: "Don't say I didn't remind you later, my friend. You have a yellow card now..."
Osei wanted to say: "What happened to me getting a yellow card?"
But he suddenly realized that the kid in front of him wanted to commit a foul on himself in the corner kick to cheat a penalty kick!? He wanted to get himself sent off again!
Thinking of this, Osai's hand hesitated for a moment, and he indeed took it away from Hu Lai's body.
At this time, Hu Lai, who was originally standing, suddenly ran forward!
Osei rushed out quickly, but he was still a little late.
At the same time, Tonini kicked the football towards the goal of the King of Madrid!
Hulay's run not only took away Osai, but also attracted the attention of other players.
They thought Hu Lai was going around to grab the header.
At the same time, Moreno crossed paths with Hulay, and he ran to the back!
Sequeiros, who was responsible for defending Moreno, turned and ran backwards, but he almost collided with Orsay, and he had to dodge urgently...
There was chaos in front of the door of the King of Madrid.
Although Hulay's sudden start disrupted the Kings penalty area, Moreno did not head the ball that flew to the back point.
Because the football was knocked out with a single punch by goalkeeper Rodríguez Bakker in the middle of the attack.
"Good shot!" Sanchez, as the main commentator, praised Bakker's decisive attack.
When there is chaos in the penalty area, the goalkeeper who can control the ball with his hands has a huge advantage. At this time, the ordinary goalkeeper chooses to wait in front of the goal for his defender teammate to decide the outcome with the opponent before reacting.
The top goalkeepers can turn their backs on the visitors, turn their passivity into initiative, and directly join the battlefield, ending this chaotic situation like a god descending from the sky.
Of course there are risks in doing so.
For example, Bakker's shot failed to hit the football far because there was a jumping Amanteji in the middle!
The football flew out of the penalty area, but drifted towards where Pirates forward Di Kunzo was.
At the same time Peralta shouted: "Press out!"
Let the Madrid Kings players in the penalty area quickly press forward and cause all the Pirates players still in the Kings penalty area to go offside.
At the same time, it can also press Dikunzo who is holding the ball, exerting huge psychological pressure on the opponent, making him unable to do well whether he is passing or shooting in a hurry.
This is also routine operation.
Offensive players who react slower can easily fall into the offside trap deliberately created by the defense.
For example, the two central defenders, Armantegui and Moreno, are now behind the Kings' defense. If the football is passed to them, or the shot touches them, it will be considered offside, and the Madrid Pirates' attack will fail.
But Di Kunzo did not pass the ball to them. Instead, after stopping the ball, he quickly pushed the football diagonally with his right foot and gave it to Hu Lai!
Hulay, who originally ran forward, had no intention of fighting for the top spot. From Toni's gesture before taking the corner kick, he knew that the ball must be kicked to Moreno from behind. So he just pretended to want it.
He ran forward, but he quickly stopped halfway.
After seeing the football being knocked out by Bakker, he did not stand there in a daze, but quickly retreated, even one step ahead of the Madrid Kings players who were pressing forward collectively.
So when DiCunzo passed the football to his side, he was not offside!
"DiCunzo passes the ball...HU!!"
"Hu Lai received the ball on the right side of the penalty area, and he was unmarked! Opportunity!"
Peralta immediately changed direction and rushed over. He can be regarded as the person with the fastest reaction in the Madrid King's defense. He is worthy of being a top central defender who can rank among the top five in "The Godfather of Champions 2027"!
Hu Lai has brought football into the penalty area!
"Pirate's chance!"
Hulay seemed not to have seen Peralta. After dribbling the ball into the penalty area, he just stared down at the football at his feet. Then he opened his arms to maintain balance, and then raised his right leg. This was a posture to shoot!
When Peralta saw Hulay about to shoot with his right leg, he immediately slid in and tackled him. Originally, there was still a little distance between him and Hulay, but now he just made up for it. Although doing so is equivalent to throwing away the center of gravity, and will lose the subsequent second reaction.
Chance.
But if you can't stop Hu Lai's shot, there will be no second or third reaction!
Just as Peralta shoveled over, Hulay's right foot also swung down and kicked the football...
Not a shot!
He dunked the football to the left!
He just happened to pass by Peralta who was sliding towards him.
In a literal sense of "passing by", Peralta's shoulder slid to the right against the turf, and the football rolled to the left just in front of his shoulder...
There was nothing he could do except watch.
I can't even reach out to hit the ball!
In Peralta's sight, Hulay, who had smashed the ball past him, swung his left foot again. This time it was no longer a feint, he hit the football on the inside of his foot!
Make an arc out of the ball, bypass goalkeeper Bakker's fingers, and go straight to the back of the goal!
"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!"
At the same time, Sanchez roared in a long voice in the commentary box.
His voice stopped abruptly until the football flew into the goal, but it immediately sounded again:
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLAZO!!! Good shot! Beautiful!! Hu scored twice in this game!"
He Feng suddenly stood up from the commentary booth, holding the headset on his head with one hand, and clenched his other hand into a fist and waved downward:
"Hu Lai! Hu Lai!! 3:1! The Pirates lead the Kings by two goals in the away game! Everyone thought that the next game would enter the King's rhythm, but who would have thought that the Pirates would use this corner kick opportunity to expand their lead?
Advantage?! With about... twenty-four minutes left in the game, Julay's goal gave all Madrid Pirates fans a reassurance! Beautiful!! Julay! This is his first Madrid derby.
, two goals! Two goals with his left foot! He has shown the style of a superstar!"
※※※
Peralta was half lying on the ground, maintaining a tackling position.
Bucker fell to the ground, forced his upper body up, and looked back at the goal.
Other Madrid Kings players in the penalty area also turned around, their movements uniform and highly synchronized.
Hu Lai, who scored the goal, did not cover his mouth with his hands to celebrate the goal this time, but ran towards the corner flag area under the north stand in full view of everyone.
He will use this celebration to check in at the Crown Arena.
Angry boos and curses rang out from the Kings fans in the North Stand, but their anger could not stop Hu Lai from making that move under their noses...
He jumped forward, turned in the air, folded his arms and crossed them on his chest, and then swung his arms downward as he turned and fell.
Finally, he stood firmly on the turf and showed the number and name on his back to the Kings fans in the stands behind him:
No. 14!
Hu Lai!
※※※
When Hu Lai almost jumped in front of her, Han Shuyu tried really hard to resist the urge to shout "HUUUUU!"
She could only grit her teeth and hold the phone in her hand steady to avoid any flaws in the picture during this highlight moment...
She stared at the screen of her mobile phone, where Hu Lai completed his full set of celebrations and then opened his arms to meet his teammates who were rushing towards her.
Ignoring the huge roars and boos behind him.
It was as if nothing happened behind him.
The Pirates players laughed and rushed towards him, surrounded him, and then waved their fists at the incompetent and furious Kings fans in the stands, showing off their power!
The yelling and cursing around Han Shuyu got louder, like a wild storm.
During the storm, Han Shuyu raised his hand and pointed at the Pirates players below like the people around him.
