Hu Lai swung his left foot to shoot, and after tricking Jacobs into raising his leg to block it, he suddenly dunked the football to the right.
"One buckle!"
After dunking on Jacobs, he then gently pushed the football away with the outside of his right foot and changed direction at the same time.
"One wave!"
He had just changed direction and did not continue to dribble forward. Johnson Law had already come over and he took a shot directly.
"Shoot!"
He used the outside instep of his right foot to whip the football toward the near corner of the goal.
Goalkeeper Lemos failed to make the save and could only watch the football fly into the goal he was guarding...
"Hu Lai! Beautiful!! The ball is scored! Hu Lai scored twice!! Beautiful! Beautiful! So beautiful!"
He Feng and Yan Kang roared, forming a double voice.
Countless fans in front of the TV stood up in excitement and waved their arms vigorously.
The Madrid Pirates fans who were traveling with the team at the Stan Park Stadium were also cheering at the top of the stands.
What is "South African Mellie"?
We are not afraid even if Melly from Argentina comes!
Because we have Chinese Hu Lai!
"Hu!! Super, super, super efficient killer! Originally, after Brooks' continuous adjustments, Stan Park Rangers' performance had improved... But at the critical moment of their rise, Hu used a simple long pass from the backcourt to score.
Score, this is a fatal blow to the morale of Stan Park Rangers!"
Spanish commentator Sanchez raised his arms and shouted.
The England commentator Matthew Cox lamented: "It is indeed Hu! This scene will be familiar to England fans, because when Hu was in Leeds City, he had already scored at critical moments many times.
Scoring a goal is either to break the deadlock or to stabilize the morale of the army...His goals always come at the right time!"
Tony Clark, who was watching the live broadcast of the game at home with his friend Matt Dawn, said with emotion: "Compared with Leeds City, he is more efficient. Of course, the Pirates are also stronger than the original Leeds City, so it feels like
He scores goals very easily."
Matt Down: "He learned to handle the ball with his back at the Pirates, and also learned more skills to get rid of the ball. Smashing the ball like this ball to get rid of it is difficult to see when he was in Leeds City."
Clark sighed: "Although I am very reluctant to give up, I still have to say that it is right for him to go to pirates..."
Matt comforted him by praising his good friend: "We are not bad either. We finally got rid of our habitual dependence on Hu and reshaped the offensive system. Whether it was Lasky or Zhou, their performance was good. Hu
It cannot be replicated, but we can successfully get rid of the sequelae of losing Hu, which is already remarkable."
Clark listened to his friend's praise and said nothing.
Just a few words, but behind it is the hard work of all members of the coaching staff over the past two seasons.
From the first day after Hulay left the team, the Leeds City coaching staff has been working to rid the team of Hulay's influence.
There was a very painful transition period, the most direct result of which was that Leeds City failed to qualify for the European competition last season.
At that time, there were still many people who badmouthed Leeds City, thinking that they would achieve nothing without Hu Lai. Leeds City had begun to decline from its peak, and each subsequent season would be worse than the last.
Although Leeds City's golden era was dazzling, it was too short-lived.
But this season Leeds City has great momentum to come back:
After twenty-five rounds of the league, Leeds City is ranked sixth with 43 points, only four points behind Stan Park Rangers who are third in the league.
This is a huge difference from their performance in the same period last season, when they were ranked 13th.
For someone like Matt Downe, who has a deep affection for both, nothing could be better than that both Leeds City and Hu Lai are doing well.
David Miller and other Leeds City fans who were watching the live TV broadcast in the bar also thought so.
Watching Hulay running towards the corner flag area of Stan Park Stadium again after scoring, these Leeds City fans stood up from their seats, and then when Hulay landed, they shouted together:
"HUUUUU!!!"
After roaring, David Miller quickly raised the wine glass placed on the table and shouted:
"Cheers to Hu!"
Everyone raised their glasses and responded enthusiastically:
"Cheers to Hu!"
"cheers!"
“Salute to Hu Lai!!”
"Oooo!"
"Who had the what a GOAL?"
Levin suddenly sang a song loudly in the crowd.
Then everyone started shouting in unison:
"WHO?WHO?WHO?WHO?WHO?"
“Hulai’s what a GOAL!”
"HU!HU!HU!HU!HU!"
"HU!HU!HU!HU!HU!"

While the Pirates and Hooray fans were celebrating wildly, Scott Brooks held his head in his hands and looked very depressed in front of the home team Stan Park Rangers' coaching bench and bench.
He has watched the team's morale and performance rise, and now he is watching his opponent beat him to the head...
Hu Lai's goal turned all his previous adjustments and attempts into a joke.
When Brooks felt frustrated, Harry Bogard in front of the bench rushed to the sideline, pointed into the court and shouted: "The game is not over yet! Cheer up! Rangers, never give up!!"
Matthew Cox saw this scene and sighed with emotion: "Even sitting on the sidelines, Harry Bogard reflects the significance of his role as captain all the time. He is encouraging his teammates... But
It’s a pity that he can only do this on the sidelines now, instead of leading by example on the court like before...Brooks still has a substitution place, maybe he will consider sending Bogaard at the last minute?”
※※※
In the huge noise at the scene, Jimmy Stokes actually couldn't hear what the captain shouted.
But it doesn't matter. As a player of Stan Park Rangers, as long as you see captain Bogard standing there, you will know what it means.
Most likely, he was shouting that slogan.
Rangers, never give up!
Stokes looked up at the scoreboard on the big screen.
It's the 71st minute of the game, and there are still about 20 minutes left before the end of the game.
With the current state of their opponents Madrid Pirates, it is almost impossible for Stan Park Rangers, who are three goals behind, to come back and win in these twenty minutes.
Not to mention turning defeat into victory, not even drawing with the opponent.
But that doesn't mean Stan Park Rangers won't have reasons to work hard next.
The knockout rounds of the Champions League are two-legged matches played on a home and away basis.
Losing the first game does not mean being eliminated.
There's still the second round.
In the case of 0:3, how can we save as much of the situation as possible and lay the foundation for creating a miracle in the second round?
This is something the current Stan Park Rangers players should consider.
This is also the main reason why captain Harry Bogard wants everyone to "never give up".
Therefore, in the next game, we have to strive for goals. If we can get a goal back, the team will be much more relaxed in the second round.
Thinking of this, Jimmy Stokes already knew what he should do.
But he is neither the captain nor does he have the same prestige within the team as the captain, so he cannot make his teammates listen to his orders by shouting a few words on the court.
All he can do is do his own thing well.
No...do it better.
Use your own practical actions to boost everyone's morale and tell them that the game is not over yet.
Now we just need to wait for the opponent to finish celebrating before kicking off.
But the Madrid Pirates players are still celebrating.
Although it is indeed a very happy thing to lead Stan Park Rangers 3:0 in the away game, the Pirates' celebration this time was obviously longer than the previous two celebrations... They were more like borrowing
An opportunity to celebrate, to delay...
So Stokes took the lead and ran to the referee, pointed at the Madrid Pirates players who were still celebrating, and complained to the referee:
"They are deliberately stalling for time, sir! We can't let them continue like this!"
In fact, the referee also noticed the Pirates' little move and was about to run to intervene. But when Stokes came, it was like he reminded the referee...
With the intervention of the referee, the Madrid Pirates players quickly ended their celebration and ran towards their own half in groups.
In front of the home team's coaching bench on the sidelines, Scott Brooks asked assistant coach Stephen Brown: "Stephen, did you see that?"
Brown knew what Brooks was referring to, and he nodded: "Yes, I saw it. Before anyone else could recover from the 0:3 blow, Stokes was already thinking about letting the game start quickly.
.”
Brooks sighed: "Harry will become an excellent head coach in the future..."
Stephen Brown said nothing.
It turns out Harry Bogard was right about Stokes.
This seemingly docile player has unimaginable resilience and a clear mind.
Give him more opportunities and over time he will definitely grow into an excellent midfielder and even... a leader.
Just judging from his view and vision of Stokes, it is completely understandable for Brooks to express such emotion.
After all, Stokes, who was favored by Harry, immediately brought changes to the team after he came on the field.
When the team encountered difficulties, he was not knocked down.
Brooks added:
"No matter what the final result of this game is, we have to give Stokes more opportunities next."
