Many South China Tigers fans and neutral fans believe that the rest of the game will be no different from the first half.
Although Flash Star used the first few minutes of the second half to launch a surprise attack on the South China Tigers' goal and really threatened the South China Tigers' goal.
But it was just a flash of inspiration, or to put it more bluntly, it was called a "flash in the pan".
The competition will still develop along the original planned route. That is, the stronger South China Tigers will use their strong overall strength to gradually take the initiative in the competition.
What is in front of Flashing Star is not as simple as a wall, but a huge mountain.
It cannot be broken through by hitting it twice with a pickaxe.
"One thing to say, Flash Star's performance in this game can actually be described as 'brave'. It is a very admirable opponent. As a newly promoted team, it is amazing to be able to perform like this when facing our South China Tigers.
I admire them endlessly...I think based on their performance in this Super Cup, the Flash Stars should be able to successfully avoid relegation this season."
"The biggest difference between the Flashing Stars and the South China Tigers is the lack of stability. They can play a good offense with a moment of enthusiasm, but they cannot maintain this state consistently. But there is no way, who is the young man in the Flashing Stars?
Mostly? Young players have advantages and disadvantages. Relying on the momentum brought by young players, they won the championship in the Chinese League One and even unexpectedly defeated Dashun Golden Arrow in the Football Association Cup final. This is a sign of youth.
Advantages. But in the more competitive Chinese Super League, the instability brought by youth may be a huge disadvantage... Fortunately, they still have Qin Lin in the team. As the saying goes, 'A family with an old man is like a treasure'...
…”
"It's a pity that Flashstar failed to score in two consecutive attacks. I felt sorry for them. After all, they may have missed the best opportunity in the game. When Hu Lai scored with a header,
My heart almost jumped out, I thought I was going to lose the ball. Fortunately, we have Lin Zhiyuan! It was such a close call..."
Yan Yan, who has returned to school, is sitting with his classmates in a bar where they often go to watch games, watching the Super Bowl live broadcast.
However, at this moment, he was not paying attention to the game itself. Instead, he was looking at the screen of his mobile phone and frowning.
The above are all discussion posts about this game on the "Goal" website. Some people are clearly praising and praising Flash Star, and some people also make reasonable remarks and adhere to neutrality.
But why did Yan Yan feel more and more tight in his chest the more he looked at it.
Because everything they said was right, they had expected the development of the game, and they could not refute it, but they were not willing to accept this reality...
“If the final goal is a small loss, I think this result is completely acceptable...”
At this moment, he heard the comments from his classmates around him.
“Yeah, facing the South China Tigers, they only lost one goal, which is already pretty good. Can’t blame them too harshly..."
"The league is still the main focus, and the Super Cup is originally a warm-up for the league... The Flash Stars were so tenacious against the South China Tigers, so if they meet other teams that are not as good as the South China Tigers, wouldn't they have great hope of winning?
?”
What they said was correct and reasonable, but Yan Yan felt even more irritated after hearing it.
It’s just that it’s not easy for him to vent his emotions in front of his classmates...
Yan Yan suddenly stood up from his seat, turned around and walked out of the bar amidst everyone's surprised looks.
“Hey, Yan Yan, don’t you want to watch it?”
Someone asked strangely, but did not receive an answer from Yan Yan.
When Yan Yan walked out of the bar and came to the street, he took a deep breath facing the busy road.
Even though he may have breathed in a lot of car exhaust, he still felt that the cold air outside was much more comfortable than the turbid and stuffy air in the bar.
“Why don’t you watch it?” A middle-aged uncle’s voice sounded next to him.
“I feel a little stuffy, come out and get some air.” Yan Yan turned around and glanced at his uncle, “Uncle, why don’t you look at it either?”
“Come out and have a cigarette.” The uncle took out a cigarette and handed it to Yan Yan, “Want one?”
“Thank you, I don’t smoke, uncle.” Yan Yan waved his hand.
"Good habit." The uncle put the cigarette in his mouth, took out the lighter and lit it, then took a deep breath. The cigarette butt flickered and then went out.
After that, neither of the two people spoke anymore. Yan Yan stared at the traffic on the road ahead in a daze, and the uncle next to him just smoked one after another. Apart from the sound of him spitting out, there was no other sound coming out.
After a while, the uncle took the last puff of the cigarette, went out and threw the extinguished cigarette butt into the trash can on the roadside. He came back and asked Yan Yan: "Aren't you afraid of missing some wonderful shots when you go out, such as Hu Lai?"
Goal?"
“I feel like I won’t miss anything. I will be the same when I came out.”
"Yo." The uncle heard the negativity in Yan Yan's tone and asked curiously, "Where is that magic stick I know? Haven't you always believed in Hu Lai unconditionally and almost superstitiously? Why do you have no confidence now?
Already?"
"It's not that I don't have confidence in Hu Lai, uncle. I'm just unhappy with the fact that everyone now thinks that if the Flash Star loses less, it's a win, and even if it's a loss, it's honorable. Before the game is over, one or two people started discussing whether we lost the game.
What to do next... Those neutral fans on the Internet said so, and the classmates around me also said so. I didn’t want to hear it, and I couldn’t argue with them, so I just came out for some air.”
Hearing what he said, the uncle smiled: "But to be honest, Yan Yan, they are the normal thoughts of normal people..."
"That's me, uncle. This is what a normal person thinks: I'll be unhappy when I lose, and I'll be angry when I'm looked down upon. Even in terms of overall strength, we're not as good as the South China Tiger. But think about it, uncle.
In the FA Cup, when we started to face the Chinese Super League team, was there ever a time when we were favored before the game and our overall strength was better than the Chinese Super League team? But who was the final winner? It was us."
Yan Yan pointed to his chest.
"I have always believed that the reason why Flash Stars are becoming more and more popular now is not because the team's performance is good, but because we can always show that kind of... fearless spirit when facing strong opponents. It makes people excited to watch.
, instead of accepting your fate in advance. Even if you really want to comfort yourself, then at least wait until the game is over. We will really lose before we talk about it. The game is not over yet, just like this..."
He shook his head, then sighed.
The middle-aged man looked at Yan Yan, who was shaking his head and sighing like this, and murmured with a smile: "It's great to be young..."
“Ah?” Yan Yan didn’t hear clearly, “Uncle, what did you say?”
At this moment, they suddenly heard a loud shout from the bar!
The two of them looked at each other, turned around and rushed into the bar almost at the same time.
As soon as they entered the bar door, they looked up at the projection screen.
On the projection screen hanging on the wall, Chen Xingyi, who was in the penalty area, shot the football towards the goal!
South China Tigers goalkeeper Lin Zhiyuan fell to the ground and pounced on his side, flicking the football with his fingertips...
The football spins on the turf and towards the back of the goal.
Hu Lai, who was following up in the middle, wanted to grab a supplementary shot, but as soon as he stretched out his foot, someone was faster than him!
Yao Huasheng shoveled the football, taking the risk of scoring an own goal, and touched the football before Hu Lai!
Football has strayed from the bottom line...
“Wow! What a danger!” He Feng exclaimed repeatedly, “What a danger! Yao Huasheng’s rescue is very crucial!”
People in the bar also held their heads in their hands and let out loud screams of regret.
The uncle was still standing there staring blankly at the projection screen, but Yan Yan had already jumped out, grabbed the classmate closest to him and asked: "How did Chen Xingyi break in?"
"Continuous...continuous changes of direction knocked Yu Daisong down! Then he entered the penalty area...What a pity! We almost tied the score!" At the end of the sentence, the classmate put his head in his hands and shouted.
.
"It's a pity!" Yan Yan retorted loudly, "If you can't get in this time, there will be a next time!"
The other party was stunned for a moment: "Next time? What next time?"
“Do you think this is Flash Star’s best chance in this game?” Yan Yan pointed at the projection screen and asked him, as well as the other students present.
"Isn't it..." someone among the classmates asked, but he stopped before he finished speaking. Apparently the person who said this also realized the problem.
Yan Yan smiled: "They said the same thing last time when Hu Lai's header was saved by Lin Zhiyuan!"
He returned to his seat, pulled out his chair, sat down calmly, and looked up at the live broadcast of the game on the projection screen.
There was a cold breeze blowing in from the closed bar door, which not only brought chill but also brought fresh air, refreshing people who felt a little suffocated in the closed bar.
※※※
In the stands of the Peace Stadium, the shouts were loud and loud, almost all caused by the Stars fans.
Although this attack did not result in a goal, the Flash Star fans seemed to see hope. They kept shouting in the stands: "The Flash Star rises! The Flash Star rises! The Flash Star rises!!"
Fans who also had Shining Star waved their big flags and wrote: "A single spark will start a prairie fire!"
Echoes the banner of the South China Tiger.
Under the loud shouts, Lin Zhiyuan got up from the ground. He felt that his heartbeat was a little fast. When he moved the football and found Hu Lai in the middle, he really felt nervous. Fortunately, captain Yao Huasheng was in time.
Come back and destroy the ball, otherwise he will lose the ball...
It still makes people feel scared when I think about it now.
But Lin Zhiyuan laughed, and he shouted at the captain's figure: "Beautiful!"
Feeling my heart beat wildly, along with joy, this is the fucking game I want to play!
Yao Huasheng did not have the same idea as Lin Zhiyuan. After he stood up, he clapped his hands vigorously to remind his teammates: "Don't panic, keep the formation!"
After Chen Xingyi unexpectedly knocked down Yu Daisong just now, the South China Tigers' defense reacted a bit too much. Most of the people ran to defend Chen Xingyi, resulting in a loophole in the middle. If he hadn't stayed in the middle,
Maybe when Hu Lai makes a follow-up shot, there won't be a South China Tiger player around him...

“It would have been better if Chen Xingyi passed the ball directly to the center...” Chen Mo, who had just held his head in regret for not being able to score in this attack, sighed.
Zhao Kangming shook his head: "No, this is also good. Chen Xingyi's choice is no problem. Any forward in his position who only thinks about shooting will have no problem."
Chen Mo also knew what Zhao Kangming wanted to emphasize, so he nodded: "Of course, I just feel a little sorry... But the performance of the players in the second half was different from the first half. I thought the second half of the game was different from the first half.
The first half was the same..."
“They are more tenacious than we thought.” Zhao Kangming said while looking at the South China tiger’s restricted area.

Yao Huasheng destroyed the football beyond the baseline and allowed Flash Star to get another corner kick.
While instructing his teammates to pay attention to defense, he pointed at Hu Lai and shouted: "Keep an eye on him! Don't let him out of sight!"
The team's Jiang Chuan stood between Hu Lai and the goal, staring at the opponent.
Hu Lai was delighted when he saw this: "Brother, are you really 'staring' at me in the literal sense?"
“Stop talking nonsense, I won’t let you run away this time!” Jiang Chuan snorted.
The last time he defended a corner kick, he let Hu Lai get away and almost lost the ball. If Lin Zhiyuan hadn't performed well, he might have become the team's sinner.
Hu Lai looked up and saw Zhang Qinghuan raising his hands, and said to Jiang Chuan, "Don't worry, brother, I won't run away this time."
Jiang Chuan was a little strange, but he didn’t believe what Hu Lai said.
The whistle sounded and Zhang Qinghuan kicked the football towards the goal.
Hu Lai really just stood there and didn't run. Instead, he came directly to a dry land to pull onions and jumped up on the spot to compete for the top spot.
Jiangchuan also jumped up. This kind of corner kick is very easy to defend. It’s just a matter of body and jumping height.
But neither of them hit the ball. Because the football was pushed towards the goal by Wang Guangwei who rushed in from the outside!
“Wang Guangwei is taller! Ah! A little taller!”
The football hit by Wang Guangwei was slightly higher than the crossbar and flew out.
The South China Tigers fans behind the South China Tigers goal saw this scene and let out frightened exclamations.
“Hoo!!”
After landing, Wang Guangwei saw that the ball had not been scored. He held his head in his hands and felt regretful. However, he did not stay where he was. Instead, he turned around and ran back with his head in his hands, feeling regretful while returning to defense.
He has not forgotten his duty.
Flashing Star's offensive has come to an end here, and the South China Tigers have the ball next, and he is a central defender. In this situation, of course he has to get in position quickly.
