Hu Lai stared blankly at the football in the goal. He didn't even expect that he would score a goal. After all, he had run into the space several times before, but never received the ball, let alone made a shot.
This is his first game goal since his playing career!
After coming back to his senses, he ran towards the corner flag area. After running a few steps, he turned around and waved to his teammates, imitating those professional stars and wanting to celebrate the goal with his teammates.
But his teammates were indifferent to his enthusiastic invitation, and no one came up to celebrate with him.
Hu Lai himself didn't seem to be surprised by this situation. Maybe he was used to it. Anyway, when he saw no one coming up, he turned around and opened his arms and continued running towards the corner flag area, cheering while running and enjoying it very much.

"Damn! What a bad luck!" Li Zhiqun, who was in front of the second team's goal, spat in displeasure. The football was in the goal in front of him.
In his opinion, Hu Lai's ball was hit by luck.
Normally, this low ball that is kicked forward cannot fly to the back of the goal.
This is also true. The ball flew behind because of a mistake in clearing the ball from the front.
The probability of this kind of mistake happening is really low. Even if the person who made the rescue is asked to kick the ball ten times, I'm afraid it won't be repeated even once.
So the football flew to the back point by accident, just in time for Hu Lai, who was at the back point, to catch up.
As for why Hu Lai appeared there, Li Zhiqun didn't care, because this kid had been running around blindly, and it was just some luck that he happened to get there.
There are times when a blind cat bumps into a dead mouse.
But your boy's good luck ends here!
Li Zhiqun looked at Hu Lai's figure from a distance and thought to himself.
Behind him, the players who reacted also said: "This kid is so lucky!"
"This one I missed... tsk tsk!"
"Oh, why am I not so lucky?!"
It was not just the players from the first team who expressed this emotion, but also the players from the second team. They looked at the arrogant figure, envious and jealous. How could such a good thing happen to that person?!
※※※
Li Qingqing, who watched the whole scene from the stands, was happy for Hu Lai's goal, because this goal confirmed her previous guess about Hu Lai that he was not without talent, but his talent had never been discovered.
Just when Li Qingqing was happy for Hu Lai's goal, she suddenly heard comments coming from around her.
"Wow, that guy is so lucky, he can score goals like this!"
"Yes, yes! Who would have thought that a football would fly past like that..."
"I saw someone kicking the football away, and somehow the football flew around the corner..."
Hearing such comments, the smile on Li Qingqing's face disappeared, and she sighed in her heart.
It seems that most people think that Hu Lai scored this goal just by luck.
Of course, it seems that Hu Lai's goal had a strong element of luck, giving people the illusion that "if I were there, I could have scored too."
But the problem is that with so many people in the penalty area, why did Hu Lai appear in that space in the end?
"Um...classmate Li Qingqing." Song Jiajia came over and asked in a low voice, "Did Hu Lai really have bad luck with this ball?"
Li Qingqing glanced at Song Jiajia, then shook his head firmly: "It's not luck, this is what I call Hu Lai's talent."
Hearing what Li Qingqing said, Song Jiajia turned to look at Hu Lai.
When Li Qingqing said Hu Lai had talent before, Song Jiajia looked joking, but now when he looked at the figure on the field, the expression on his face was much more serious.
"It seems like he is running aimlessly with no rules, but in fact he can run to the right position every time. I think Hu Lai may not know that he has such an ability. This is completely a kind of
Instinct, a kind of talent." Li Qingqing continued. "The reason why he didn't score before was just because his teammates didn't trust him and didn't pass the ball to him."
"Then after he scores this goal, will those people pass the ball to him?" Song Jiajia asked.
Li Qingqing thought about the reaction of his teammates after Hu Lai scored, and shook his head: "I'm afraid it won't happen."
"Why?" Song Jiajia sounded a little anxious.
"Because they all think Hu Lai just scored a goal by dribbling shit. After all, Hu Lai's goal does look like good luck."
Song Jiajia stopped talking and just fixed her eyes on Hu Lai.
Although there was only one person, his tablemate was very involved in the celebration. He ran to the corner flag area, opened his arms, leaned back, raised his head slightly, and closed his eyes, as if he was listening to the fans shouting his name.
In fact, no one shouted his name. There were indeed some reflexive cheers after the goal, but it ended quickly. The momentum after he scored was far different from that after Luo Kai scored.
.
After Luo Kai scored, Song Jiajia was surrounded by screams that almost pierced his eardrums. But now all he could hear was "Are you lucky? What a lucky man! This man is so lucky! His character is invincible! He went to school."
Isn’t it time to help the old lady cross the road?" Such comments came out.
He looked back at the chattering crowd, showed a look of disdain, and snorted in his heart: You guys are so ignorant! Luck will only favor those with talent!

As Li Qingqing said, after the game restarted, Hu Lai's situation did not improve because of this goal.
Because his teammates thought his goal was just good luck.
Even if Hu Lai can always run into the space, the football will not be passed to him.
Li Zhiqun is very positive.
Hu Lai had already scored, which made him feel the pressure. He couldn't really be compared to Hu Lai, right?
Even if Hu Lai's goal was a lucky one, Li Zhiqun would not be reconciled.
He kept signaling to his teammates to let them pass the ball to him.
But this has no effect.
He still hasn't scored a goal.
This makes Li Zhiqun very depressed. Why am I not as lucky as that kid Hu Lai? Why didn't the missed opportunity like that just appear in front of me?!
His running was not inactive, but no matter how he ran, there was no chance like Hu Lai's.
Is it true that shitty luck like that is inevitable?
But just thinking about it made Li Zhiqun even more unhappy. Why can people like Hu Lai have such good luck, but I don’t!?
He got angry.
The first team once again attacked from the wing and the football was passed sideways.
Li Zhiqun accelerated towards the target point, but he was still followed by the defender of the second team. He had no chance to stop the football and adjust it. He knew this very well, so he planned to shoot directly.
He rounded his right leg and aimed at the football that was rolling towards him.
But he didn't play football.
Li Zhiqun had a problem judging where the football would land, and his fully charged kick came up empty!
The football flew between his legs.
Although his kick did not hit the football, he succeeded in shaking the defensive player behind him, so the defensive player did not touch the football.
He also shook the goalkeeper who came to block the shot. His body swayed and he almost fell to the ground, but the football did not fly over, but passed in front of his eyes!
Then he saw Hu Lai appearing at the football spot!
The goalkeeper's eyes widened and he almost blurted out a sentence in English: How old are you?!
why is it you again!
※※※
Hu Lai saw Li Zhiqun leading the defensive players to the front point and the back point was empty, so he naturally ran up.
As a result, the football was like a hound that heard his whistle call, obediently sprang out of the bushes, ran to him and kept wagging its tail, wanting to interact with its owner.
When Hu Lai saw the football rolling over, he didn't think too much about it. His body's instinctive reaction made him stretch out his foot and poke it!
The football rolled into the second team's goal for the second time.
