Chapter 52: Played

 Li Qingqing and Song Jiajia stood in the stands. Every time she used Song Jiajia's size to occupy a position with a good view.

This time they were diagonally above the bench of the Dongchuan Middle School football team. She turned her head slightly and could see Hu Lai sitting on the bench. Dongchuan Middle School did not have a covered bench, so-called bench.

The seats are actually more than 20 folding chairs placed side by side, divided into two rows, front and back. These are considered bench seats.

The student players who were not playing sat in their seats and watched the game.

It doesn't matter if the weather is good, but if it rains, they may have to hold an umbrella each.

However, it is normal for high school football games to have some rough conditions. At least there are chairs to sit on. In some places, all the substitute players can only sit on the ground because there are not enough chairs. We can only give priority to ensuring that the coaches have seats...

Now Hu Lai is sitting on one of the chairs, and the number behind him is very conspicuous.

No. 14.

During the first game, Li Qingqing saw this number and knew why this number was worn on Hu Lai.

Generally, if you are not popular in the team, or you are a marginal figure, you will be assigned this number. After all, there is no rule that because the number 14 is unlucky, you don’t have to have it in the team...

This number illustrates Hulay's situation in the team.

But Hu Lai himself didn't seem to care. Li Qingqing asked Hu Lai privately what he thought of this number, and Hu Lai actually told her that she quite liked it...

Considering Hu Lai's consistent behavior, Li Qingqing didn't think there was anything unusual about this. This man didn't seem to care what others thought of him.

Hu Lai, who is now wearing the No. 14 jersey, is sitting on a chair, watching the game very intently. He lies forward with his elbows on his thighs, and his head rotates with the football. He looks wherever the ball is.

Seeing this, Li Qingqing also turned his attention to the court again.

She still remembered her father saying that this traditional football school had failed to reach the semi-finals of the Anton Cup twice in the past five years.

Today's game is related to whether the Dongchuan Middle School football team can reach the semi-finals.

This is the quarter-finals of the Anton Provincial Qualifiers for the National Competition and the Anton Cup. Dongchuan Middle School plays against Zongbei Middle School at home.

Brown North Middle School is not unknown. As a strong football school in Ping'an City, Andong Province, it also has an excellent football tradition. It is said that this school specializes in collecting football talents from Ping'an City. As long as students with football expertise join Brown North Middle School

There will be special benefits for admission with extra points.

Before the establishment of a unified national football competition for middle school students, Zongbei Middle School was a traditional strong team in Andong Province's "Andong Cup". It was a frequent visitor to the top eight and the semi-finals, and had reached the finals four times. Of course.

, reaching the finals was a long, long time ago...

Since the establishment of the unified national competition, they have also reached the semi-finals twice.

I have introduced so much just to show that this is a team whose strength cannot be underestimated.

It's just that now this traditional strong team is two goals behind...

Both goals were related to Luo Kai, who scored one goal and assisted another.

※※※

After receiving a pass from Chu Yifan, Luo Kai scored his second goal of the game and also Dongchuan Middle School's third goal of the game.

The score on the field is now 3:0, and Dongchuan Middle School, which plays at home, is in the lead.

After scoring a goal, Luo Kai habitually turned his attention to the beautiful figure in the stands.

This time he was somewhat surprised to see the beautiful figure raising her arms and cheering.

Although Luo Kai wanted to win cheers from Li Qingqing every time he scored a goal, he had never been able to do so before.

So this time when he saw the elated Li Qingqing, he almost couldn't believe his eyes.

Then a bright smile appeared on his face, and he waved vigorously to Li Qingqing in the stands.

At this moment, he felt that all his tireless goals were worth it.

He finally used his strength to prove that he regained the favor of the goddess!

Sure enough, strength speaks for itself on the football field. Mr. Nan Guo, who has no strength, cannot deceive anyone!

※※※

"That's great!" Li Qingqing said to Song Jiajia next to him after cheering. "This way Hu Lai will have a chance to play!"

"Why?" Song Jiajia still doesn't quite understand. He only knows that the better Luo Kai performs, the more embarrassed Hu Lai will be.

"Now we are 3:0 ahead of our opponents. With such a big lead, I...the head coach can safely let Hu Lai play!" Li Qingqing almost blurted out the title "my dad". "If we only lead by one goal,

Or it could just be a draw, and it would be very difficult for Hu Lai to play. At that time, the most important thing is to win the game, not to fulfill the promise of letting Hu Lai play."

Song Jiajia suddenly realized: "In other words, Hu Lai wants to play the game only if he can ensure victory."

"Yes, everything must be based on reaching the semi-finals." Li Qingqing nodded. "Now that we are three goals ahead, we have great hope of entering the semi-finals. In this case, the head coach can give Hu Lai

Opportunity to play.”

Song Jiajia: "No wonder you cheered after Luo Kai scored. Let me just say, Luo Kai scored so many goals before and I didn't see you showing anything..."

Li Qingqing made a face.

She could guess what Luo Kai meant to her, but she had no interest in Luo Kai, so she deliberately restrained herself and did not show any emotion in front of Luo Kai's goal, just to not give Luo Kai any illusions.

But just now she was only thinking about Hu Lai and couldn't hold it back.

Song Jiajia looked at Luo Kai who was in high spirits and felt that Luo Kai was nothing special and far behind Hu Lai.

※※※

After Li Ziqiang saw Luo Kai's goal, he lowered his head and raised his wrist to look at his watch. There were still twenty-three minutes left before the end of the game.

Then he looked back at Hu Lai, who was sitting diagonally behind him.

The kid was still sitting on the chair, looking at the court very intently. Judging from his eager expression, he seemed to be impatient to play.

As if he noticed someone was looking at him, he turned his eyes and met Li Ziqiang's eyes.

Realizing that the head coach was looking at him, Hu Lai quickly grinned a flattering smile.

It was this look that made Li Ziqiang really dislike him at all.

Now that I think about it, the way he looked up and roared at me on the court was even more interesting. At least there was no false and flattering smile like now, and there was no cunning and cunning look in his eyebrows.

But whether he likes it or not, he still has to abide by the promise he made in front of the entire team. Otherwise, how can he lead the team if people's hearts are broken?

So he waved to Hu Lai.

He saw Hu Lai on the seat pointing at him in disbelief. Coupled with his smile, Li Ziqiang really wanted to stop him from appearing.

But he still nodded seriously.

Hu Lai stood up from his seat excitedly, then ran to Li Ziqiang and asked excitedly: "Coach, am I going to play?!"

Li Ziqiang resisted the undignified behavior of rolling his eyes and glared at Hu Lai: "What are you going to do? Let's warm up!"

"Oh..." Hu Lai scratched his head and ran towards the warm-up area.

※※※

"It's time to appear!" Li Qingqing became excited when she saw Hu Lai running to warm up.

"But he didn't run onto the field..." Song Jiajia didn't understand.

"Let him warm up before playing to avoid injury after playing." Li Qingqing explained to Song Jiajia. "After he warms up, he can come back and play."

"That's it." Song Jiajia put away the mobile phone in her hand and put it into her trouser pocket.

He came to watch the game every weekend before, not because he was interested in football, but because he wanted to help Hu Lai get his jersey and shoes. Before the game started, he had to give Hu Lai his jersey and shoes, and when the game was over,

He wanted to take Hu Lai's jersey and sneakers home and keep them for him.

As for the game itself, he had no interest. After helping Li Qingqing occupy a favorable terrain, he took out his mobile phone and started playing his game.

But now, since Hu Lai is going to play, he will not play the game.

Although he doesn't understand football and doesn't like football, he is Hu Lai's friend and of course he wants to come to support his friend.

Just as Li Qingqing said, Hu Lai quickly ended his warm-up, returned to the sidelines, and stood in front of head coach Li Ziqiang again.

Li Qingqing watched this scene nervously, with her father on one side and her friends on the other.

She was really worried that her father would assign Hu Lai an impossible task and then use it as an excuse to ban Hu Lai for a year...

Although her father said that he was strictly demanding Hu Lai, a girl's intuition always made her feel that things might not be that simple...

※※※

Li Ziqiang looked at Hu Lai standing in front of him. Unlike what his daughter was worried about, he did not plan to arrange any special tasks for Hu Lai. In fact, he did not plan to arrange any tasks for Hu Lai at all.

Because even if he wanted to arrange it, it would be impossible.

Hu Lai had never practiced with the team at all. At first, Li Ziqiang never expected that Hu Lai could pass his devilish special training, so he did not arrange any joint training with the team for Hu Lai, which meant that the game was about to begin.

However, Hu Lai has only gone through basic training. He is not familiar with the team, and the team is not familiar with him.

Under such circumstances, what other tasks can be arranged?

So facing Hu Lai who looked expectant, Li Ziqiang sighed in his heart: "You go on the field...play center."

Hu Lai nodded vigorously: "Okay, coach, no problem! Do you need me to involve the opponent's defensive forces? Or run into the space behind them? Coach, I know where the goal is..."

When Li Ziqiang heard Hu Lai's words, his temples couldn't help but jump. What drama are you putting on yourself?

He suppressed his anger and said: "No, no need for anything. You have no task. When you play, you will be at the center position..."

Hu Lai was confused: "But what exactly should I do, coach?"

I watched a few qualifiers before. As long as there was a substitution, coach Li Ziqiang would definitely take the players who were going to play to explain for a long time. He was afraid that he would not be able to speak clearly with his mouth, so he would write and draw on the tactical board. Although Hu Lai couldn't hear it.

The coach said something, but just by looking at the movements, I felt that he was extremely professional!

He also imagined that when it was his turn, he should also put on a very professional expression and posture in front of the tactical board, such as listening attentively to the head coach's arrangements, nodding from time to time, and finally giving him a determined

Look towards the opponent's goal to show your determination...

Unexpectedly, it was his turn to play today, and the head coach had no plans for him. This left him with no room to show his full potential.

"It's up to you!" Li Ziqiang didn't want to talk to Hu Lai anymore. After saying this, he pushed Hu Lai to the fourth official.

After submitting his participation card and substitution list, Hu Lai finally stood on the sidelines, waiting to be substituted.

He was still thinking about the coach's words in his mind.

Let me figure it out myself?

Do you want me to find my own space?

The coach is truly a professional and he immediately knew how to utilize my talents!

In Hu Lai's mind, since he knows where the goal is, why should others tell him how to find it? Therefore, the coach does not assign specific tasks to him, it must be because he fully realizes his talent.

Find free time and think of it as your strengths!

Hu Lai shook his butt excitedly on the sidelines, and he couldn't wait to get on the court.

After all, this is the first official competition in his life!

After the football flew out of bounds, the game entered the dead ball stage, and Dongchuan Middle School completed the first substitution of the game.

Replaced No. 9 center Zhong Shihao with No. 14 Hu Lai.

The moment Hu Lai stepped onto the court, he heard a pleasant voice in his mind: "The game has been played, the task is completed, and the task reward [Basic Training Scroll: Shooting] was obtained."

Hearing this voice, Hu Lai was so happy that he almost jumped up. He just waved his hands and skipped towards his center position under everyone's gaze.

Song Jiajia in the stands saw this scene and couldn't help complaining: "Why is this posture the same as that of a kindergarten kid going to the playground?"

Li Qingqing was amused by Song Jiajia's words, but in her eyes, Hu Lai was not a kindergarten kid who went to the playground, because there was a tail that was swinging happily behind his butt... He was a kid who had been locked up at home for several months and finally finally

A dog that can go out for fun!

Li Ziqiang looked at Hu Lai's cheerful back, his face was as dark as if it was dripping with ink. He didn't look like a player at all! It was a joke!
