Chapter 128 The grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring
After Hu Lai scored, the stands of the Provincial Sports Center burst into cheers.
This goal helped the Stars seal the victory. With little game time left, they were still playing at home. A two-goal lead basically meant that the game was won.
Hulay scored in his first game back with the team.
This performance makes Flash Star fans satisfied.
Aren’t they just going to have a few goals when they come to watch the game?
The first is of course that the team he supports wins, and the second is that Hulay can score.
Both goals are now accomplished.
Some fans have already taken out their mobile phones in the stands to ask their fellow fans where they can go to eat and drink after watching the game and have a good chat about today's game.
The catering people in Jincheng are also very happy - business is going to be good again tonight!
Li Chengwu was still sitting on the bench, feeling a little sad when he saw his teammates on the Olympic team being cheered by the fans.
Look at this football market, look at their treatment...
Of course, this kid Hu Lai not only plays the main force in the Olympic team, but also plays the main force when he returns to the club.
It is completely different from someone like me who is a substitute whether in the Olympic team or in the club.
It would be great if one day I could shine like Hu Lai on the court...
That must be incredibly beautiful!
Just when Li Chengwu was daydreaming about how he would celebrate after scoring a goal in a game, the assistant coach called him up from the bench.
"Go warm up!"
Li Chengwu quickly got up and ran to the warm-up area.
At the same time, he knew very well that Director Yuan had basically given up on winning this game away from home.
Because they have already sent young players like him to train - obviously Director Yuan did not let him play to turn the tide, and he did not have the ability...
※※※
Li Chengwu's expectation was good.
After he came on the field, Heihe Polar Stars did not set off a counterattack in the away game, and the players played without desire or desire.
Flashing Star also cooperated and slowed down the pace.
The two teams just spent all the remaining game time.
At the end of the game, Anton Shining Stars defeated Heihe Polar Stars 2:0 at home and won their second victory this season.
We also got winning bonuses and everyone was very happy.
At the post-match press conference, head coach Zhao Kangming talked about Chen Xingyi and Hu Lai:
"...I am very happy that Hu Lai was able to score in the first game after returning to the team. He maintained a good condition and showed no fatigue. This is very important for the team, after all, this
There are a lot of doubleheaders during the season..."
Now as the head coach, Zhao Kangming can talk about Hu Lai's important role to the team very directly, but he rarely did so last season.
On the one hand, it was considered that doing so might put pressure on Hu Lai, and on the other hand, Hu Lai had not yet risen to the core of the team's offense at that time.
But things are different now. The offensive tactics of the Flash Stars in pre-season training are designed around Hu Lai. Zhao Kangming refers to Hu Lai when arranging personnel matching.
In addition, after Hu Lai's successful performance last season and Hu Lai's experience in the East Asian Cup with the Olympic team, Zhao Kangming is full of confidence in Hu Lai and believes that now he does not have to worry about being under too much pressure.
It’s not like Zhao Kangming didn’t know how much pressure he was under before playing the South Korean team in the first game of the East Asian Cup. Maybe Hu Lai’s total pressure was not as high as the pressure in that game after playing for a season in Flash Star.
The results of it?
Hu Lai surrendered a hat trick under tremendous pressure.
What else can be said?
This man is born with a big heart.
So blow it to death!
There is no need to worry about whether this will bring any pressure to Hu Lai!
Speaking of Chen Xingyi, Zhao Kangming also brought Hu Lai with him: "...I know that the two of them have known each other since they were student players, so I arranged for Chen Xingyi and Hu Lai to play at the same time. I wanted to see them.
Can the two people generate some sparks? As you can see, the goal was really beautiful. It was no longer a spark, but a raging fire!"
At this point, the reporters burst into laughter, and Zhao Kangming also laughed.
In fact, after the game, Chen Xingyi was asked by reporters about his relationship with Hu Lai.
"Do you know him very well? That's right... We did know each other when we were student players. Did you already think about the next goal before crossing the ball? In fact, I didn't think about it that much when I crossed the ball. I just thought
As long as I pass the football, Hu Lai will definitely be in the middle. Facts have proved that Hu Lai has lived up to my pass. He feels really good in front of the goal. Do you like to play on the wing or in the middle? In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you like it or not.
I like it. Anyway, when the coach asks me to play, I will complete the tasks given to me by the coach. I can play on the wing or in the middle. What do you think of my performance in this game? It’s not bad... I will continue to work hard.
, I hope this situation can continue.”
So what does Hu Lai think of Chen Xingyi?
"We have a very good relationship. How good is our relationship? I don't have to look at him on the court, just run, and I know he will pass the football to me. The same goes for him, he doesn't even have to look at me, he just passes the ball, and he knows that I
It will definitely appear where he passes the ball... Yes, there is such a tacit understanding! We only practiced together for ten days? So what? The tacit understanding between the two of us cannot be cultivated by training together for many days!"

"So that's it!"
Chen Xingyi, who was eating, heard his father across from him suddenly put down his chopsticks and lightly tapped the table.
"What turned out to be like this?" he asked strangely.
"I just thought about what happened when you were still in high school. I remember one time I found you secretly paying attention to the Anton Cup. At that time, I was surprised. You don't play in the Anton Cup, so why are you paying so much attention to competitions in other provinces...
It turns out that you started paying attention to Hu Lai from that time, right?" Chen Hantang looked at his son and asked after explaining.
"Well, Dad, you are right to think so...it's just that I paid attention to Hu Lai earlier than that."
"Earlier?"
"Well, Dad, do you know about Wang Guangwei..." Chen Xingyi simply put down the bowl and chopsticks and told his father the story of him and Hu Lai from the beginning.
…
"That's it, that's it... You only paid attention to Hu Lai because you wanted to defeat him at first. Unexpectedly, through some combination of circumstances, it actually helped you integrate into Flashing Star." Chen Hantang let out a sigh of relief after listening to his son's story.
"Oh, if I had known earlier, we should have chosen to come to Flashing Star in the first place. This has come full circle..."
Chen Xingyi shook his head: "Then who knew there would be so many things in the future?"
"That's true... If you don't go to Golden Arrow to see more, you won't think that coming to Flashing Star is a good choice. But it doesn't matter. Everything you have experienced in the past has shaped you now. Since your understanding of Hu Lai helped
You have integrated into the current shining star. Then maybe your experience in Golden Arrow will one day become your wealth?" Chen Hantang said.
Chen Xingyi nodded.
"By the way, Star, we can't always stay in hotels, right?"
"yes."
"I want to go look at the house tomorrow and let's rent a house to live in. Do you think we should rent it in downtown Jincheng or in Liucheng where the training base is located?" Chen Hantang asked his son for his opinion.
"Liucheng, it's close to the training base." Chen Xingyi said.
People say that Jincheng is a city that you don’t want to leave once you arrive, which means that there are many places to eat and have fun here, and the nightlife is also extremely rich, making it easy for people to forget to leave.
But Chen Xingyi was not interested in any of this.
He came to Jincheng to play football well and save his career, not to see the tenderness of Jincheng girls.
"Okay, tomorrow dad will help you look at the house. As for you, just concentrate on training. I will help you solve the things in life, so don't be distracted. The next game is the Football Association Cup, and I think Director Zhao should be here.
Rotation is used in the game. After all, there are many double matches in the next week. Based on your performance in this game, I think you may start. If you play well and can continue your performance in this game, you will be considered.
We have initially established a foothold in Flashing Star."
Chen Hantang analyzed it for his son, and Chen Xingyi nodded repeatedly.
"After one season is over, we will return to Golden Arrow completely transformed!"
"Okay, Dad, don't worry."

"Hu Lai, are there really no problems with what you said in front of reporters?" Wang Guangwei expressed the doubts in his heart.
"What else? Do you want me to tell reporters how Chen Xingyi blocked us? I don't care, I am just a poor and innocent victim in this matter..."
"No, I mean you brag about your tacit understanding with Chen Xingyi... how can you say it so well? During training, you two often have trouble getting on with each other."
Hu Lai laughed and asked very proudly: "Lao Wang, haven't you noticed yet?"
"What did you find?"
"My characteristics."
Wang Guangwei hesitated and said, "Cheap?"
"……go away!"
"No...then what other qualities do you have?" Wang Guangwei was also very aggrieved. He just told the truth. Why can't people nowadays listen to the truth?
"...Have you not noticed that my performance in training and in the game do not completely match? Sometimes my performance in training is average, but I can score goals when I go on the field. Hey, don't you think it's annoying?
Angry?" Hu Lai spread his hands.
Wang Guangwei nodded expressionlessly: "It's quite irritating."
Wasn't Lai Zekai so angry that you left? It is said that the club wanted to hold a farewell ceremony for him before he left, but he refused directly and left in a hurry, as if he wanted to leave the team as soon as possible.
…
"So don't use my performance in training as a reference to extrapolate my performance in the game. Let me tell you that the actual game is more free and more conducive to my performance."
Wang Guangwei fell into silence.
Although what Hu Lai said was a bit unflattering, he had to admit that it was also true.
If you only look at training, Hu Lai is an ordinary player on the same level as most people.
But when he gets on the field, he can score goals.
This is the case in the Olympic team, and it is also the case in Flash Star.
Isn't the ultimate indicator of a striker scoring goals?
As long as Hulay can score goals and can keep scoring goals like this, then he will be a top forward.
He can even score goals as long as he plays. How many people care about his performance in training?
Hu Lai saw that Wang Guangwei was deep in thought, so he decided to strike while the iron was hot and consolidate his character: "If you don't believe me, wait until the next game to see if Little Xingxing and I have a tacit understanding when we play."
"Next game?" Wang Guangwei thought for a moment, then shook his head, "You two may not be able to play at the same time in the next game."
"Um?"
"The next game is the FA Cup, it's next Wednesday, and then there's the league next Saturday. Three games in seven days. Do you think Director Zhao can still let you play in the FA Cup? The priority must be to ensure that you play in the league.
Ah. How can you still have the energy to play in the league on Saturday after playing in the FA Cup in midweek?"
Hu Lai was stunned.
He completely forgot about this.
Football Association Cup... For teams that have no intention of striving for honors in this event, the Football Association Cup usually allows young players or substitute players to find their match status.
Besides, in the third round of the Football Association Cup, the opponents that the Chinese League One teams can encounter here are basically the Chinese League Two teams that came up from the first and second rounds. The opponents are not strong, and there is no need to send in their main players.
players.
With double matches in a week, the FA Cup in the middle of the week will definitely allow the main players to rest.
But he can't rest!
The duration of the [Lingxi Card] is three games. These three games do not mean that the last game counts. Instead, they start counting from the time this card is used, regardless of whether the user plays or not.
The last game between Flashing Star and Polaris was one game.
There are still two games, which will correspond to the next FA Cup match and Saturday's fifth round of the league.
If he can't play in the FA Cup, wouldn't it be a wasted game?
Now that the country is advocating conservation, how can we be so wasteful?
"No." Hu Lai said suddenly.
"What's not working?" Wang Guangwei didn't react at all.
"I have to talk to Director Zhao."
"What to talk about?"
"Let me play in the FA Cup, I want to play in the FA Cup." Hu Lai said with an upright face, "Before I went to play in the East Asian Cup and missed the three rounds of the league before the start of the team's season. Now the FA Cup is not the right time
Will I make up for the games I missed?"
"What's there to fix, Hu Lai?"
Hu Lai didn't answer his question, but turned to stare at him, making Wang Guangwei confused and then gradually became confused: "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"Lao Wang, the club paid me a pre-tax salary of 150,000 yuan in March. With such a high salary, I went to the Olympic team to play in the East Asian Cup. I gained honor and fame, but I missed the club's first three league games.
.The team only won one victory in these three games, and the league ranking fell to fourteen for a time... I didn't win a game and got this 150,000 for nothing. I have to make up for these three games, right? Let me tell you.
, not only this FA Cup match, I have also decided that I will participate in the next FA Cup matches! A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of water. Even if I use the 150,000 yuan to play a few more FA Cup games,
What happened to the cup competition?"
What Hu Lai said was so righteous that Wang Guangwei was a little shaken: "What you said makes sense. Then... I will go with you to find Director Zhao..."
Hu Lai shook his head: "You don't have to imitate me, Lao Wang."
"Why? I also missed the first three rounds..."
"Do you have a monthly salary of 150,000, Lao Wang?" Hu Lai asked.
