Accompanied by an English narration, Hu Lai in the picture runs towards the corner flag area, then leaps high, turns 180 degrees in the air, and makes his signature move.
When his legs hit the ground...
“HUUUUUU!!!”
There was a thunderous explosion.
It is as if an electric current is transmitted from the mobile phone to the hand holding the mobile phone, and then from the arm to the whole body.
A layer of goose bumps quickly appeared on my arms.
"well……"
A sigh accompanied by goosebumps all over my body.
Putting down the phone, Luo Kai leaned back on the chair and looked down at his arms.
He actually... got goosebumps.
Due to work and rest reasons, he did not watch the live broadcast of this game.
Woke up this morning and heard that Hu Lai had scored a hat trick in yesterday's game. He was really shocked.
He knows very well how difficult it is to score a hat trick. He has been a professional player for so many years, but he has never completed a hat trick in an official game - the last time he scored three goals in a game was in high school.
…
Even in the Chinese league, it is not easy to complete a hat trick.
Hu Lai has already worn a hat in the Premier League. This is not only the first hat for a Chinese player in the Premier League, but also the first for an Asian player.
When he saw the news on the Internet, Chinese fans had already taken the honor of "Light of Asia" from Park Suntae's head and put it on Hu Lai's head. It is said that outside the Internet, Chinese fans and Korean fans were even more fierce.
…
Out of shock and curiosity, Luo Kai silently recited the four-character motto of "getting rid of inner demons" several times before finding the game highlights of Hu Lai's hat trick on the Internet.
The first ball, the second ball, the third ball...
During this process, Luo Kai felt that his heart had calmed down. Although he was still shocked by Hu Lai's achievements, at least he no longer felt jealous.
But when he saw Hulay's celebration after scoring the third goal and heard the shouts from the Leeds City fans, his heart was inevitably shaken.
When goosebumps crawled all over his body, he broke his guard.
Hu Lai's treatment made him go crazy with jealousy.
He knows that this is no longer a matter of how many goals Hulay scored in the game, but that he conquered those picky and professional fans.
A Chinese player conquered the fans there in just half a season after landing in the Premier League.
Because he follows Hulay, he naturally knows what kind of environment Hulay faced when he first transferred. He also knows very well how Leeds City fans initially felt about Hulay.
Knowing this, he will understand better than others what that thunder means.
When Hu Lai scored the first goal in the professional arena, when Hu Lai broke the Korean phobia with a hat trick in the East Asian Cup, when Hu Lai won the championship trophy with an upside-down golden hook in the Football Association Cup final,
When Hulay completed the winning goal in front of Melli, when Hulay won the Chinese Super League championship, when Hulay transferred to Europe... so many times, he has never wanted that person to be him as much as he does now.
Being able to receive such treatment is simply the highest honor for a professional player.
He is my opponent, he is not my inner demon.
He is my opponent, he is not my inner demon.
He is my opponent, he is not my inner demon.
It’s an opponent, not an inner demon...
Luo Kai closed his eyes and repeated this sentence over and over in his mind.
In the home team's locker room at the Andong Provincial Sports Center, Chen Mo inserted a USB flash drive into his laptop.
While the laptop is connected to the projector.
The projector projects the desktop of the laptop onto a white screen.
Zhao Kangming said next to him: "Before today's game starts, I plan to show you a video. I believe many people may have seen this video. After all, it is only today and it is everywhere on the Internet. I want to watch it.
It’s hard not to see it, but I still want to show it to everyone and let you see it again.”
After speaking, he turned his head and nodded to Chen Mo.
After receiving the signal, Chen Mo double-clicked the mouse to open a video file in the USB folder.
After a short wait, the video file automatically played in full screen, and a game highlight with English commentary appeared on the projection screen.
Sure enough, it’s a video that everyone has seen more than once – Hulay’s game highlights against North London Wanderers.
Or rather, highlights from Leeds City's match against North London Wanderers.
There was Hulay's first goal in the 13th minute, and there was his second goal. There was also North London Wanderers' counterattack, there was the scene where Farrak Quinn was sent off, there was the goal conceded.
A close-up of the expressions of Leeds City players afterwards.
Until Hulay scored his third goal.
The video ends with Hu Lai’s celebration.
When he did his signature celebration and landed...
“HUUUUUU!!”
The rapid and powerful roar echoed in the locker room, as if there was an echo.
With this loud roar, the video stopped abruptly.
There was no whistle at the end of the game, no score display, and no classic scene of fans rushing into the stadium after the game to lift every Leeds City player high.
Zhao Kangming pointed to the frozen back of Hu Lai and said to his players: "Why should I show you this video before the game? Because I hope you understand that you are content to play around in domestic football and compete with those opponents.
Food has no future. The example is right in front of you - everyone can see how fast Hu Lai has improved after going to the Premier League. You now also know what can be gained. China's domestic football is like a well, and
There is a whole galaxy outside. I don’t want you all to be satisfied with being a frog at the bottom of a well, looking up and seeing only a small patch of sky. I hope that each of you will work hard to jump out of this well and go to a wider world, even if it’s difficult.
Therefore, when encountering setbacks, you must bravely go out. Because going out can make you stronger and make progress, just like Hu Lai. If you don’t go out, you will never know the environment you are in now.
What a small and narrow well it is!”
Speaking of this, Zhao Kangming turned his attention to Zhang Qinghuan.
"If you want to go out, just work hard in training and show your best performance and condition in the game. With Hulay's outstanding performance in the Premier League, there will definitely be many scouts from European clubs paying attention to our Chinese Super League games.
I will especially pay attention to the game of Flashing Star. He has paved a way for you, but if there is no one to follow, this road will naturally be barren. I hope more of you can go out, this is what I will give you
The reason for watching this video. Now, think about it for yourselves and what you should do."
After speaking, Zhao Kangming and the entire coaching staff walked out of the locker room early, leaving a few minutes for the team.
After closing the door, he didn't know what would happen in the room behind him, but he believed that changes had already occurred.
Because when he said those words, he looked around at every player in the room, and in many of them, he saw light.
"Chen Xingyi - beautiful!! This is his second goal of the game!! Scored twice! Dashun Golden Arrow also relied on his two goals to score a goal with ten minutes left in the game.
In this case, we lead Shanhailanyue 2:0!"
The stands at Dashun Ocean Stadium were filled with people, and the fans were roaring.
They were all given to Chen Xingyi.
Having just scored twice, he did not celebrate the goal. Instead, he got into the goal. Before the opponent's goalkeeper could recover, he picked up the football and ran towards the center circle.
He has already scored twice and is only one goal away from a hat-trick.
There is not much time left now, so of course he has to hurry up.
Head coach Dillon, who saw this scene on the sidelines, turned to his translator Yu Jintao and smiled and said: "I really like Hu more and more now, Yu."
“Because he can stimulate Chen Xingyi to make continuous progress?” Yu Jintao asked.
"Hahaha!" Dillon laughed, "I plan to make a highlight reel of Hu's goals and show them to Chen Xingyi in the locker room before every game. In this way, we can easily win the game.
Yes. What do you think of my idea, Yu?"
“You’re exploiting labor, Jorge.”
Then the two people looked at each other and laughed.
“Zhou Zijing’s header!! Ah! Lin Zhiyuan lifted the crossbar with one palm!”
The fans cheered in the stands.
Zhou Zijing put his head in his hands, looked at the goal and shouted.
Lin Zhiyuan got up from the ground and shook his finger at Zhou Zijing: "Want to enter my door? Dreaming!"
Hearing what Lin Zhiyuan said, Zhou Zijing put down his hand and stared at him: "Don't mess with me, Lin Zhiyuan! I'm in a bad mood today!"
"Haha, I'm in a good mood! Are you going crazy after Hu Lai's hat trick? You want to use me to show off, no way!" Lin Zhiyuan snorted coldly. "If you have the ability, challenge Hu Lai in person! Leave it to me.
What kind of wild behavior are you doing!"
Seeing this scene, the commentator laughed: "Zhou Zijing and Lin Zhiyuan are old enemies. They have been rivals since the high school national competition. Now when they come to the professional league, they still love and kill each other... every time
Their encounter was very interesting. Zhou Zijing and Lin Zhiyuan both looked in good condition today. With one forward and one goalkeeper, this game will be interesting..."
