"...Although the farewell ceremony has been held at Pirates Park, Maxi Carey has not announced which team he will go to next. At the same time, Insubre, who has been rumored to be a certainty before, has also not made any move.
...This has caused many different opinions. And just this morning, Maxi Carey's social media suddenly updated the latest news. It was just a picture and said nothing, but this picture is... the Leeds City team logo.
!
"Immediately afterwards, Leeds City Club officially announced that they had signed an agreement with Dutch superstar Maxi Carey. Carey joined the team as a free agent. After the contract period is 2+1 two years, both parties can renew the contract for another year...
...This official announcement shocked many people, because they had never heard that Leeds City was interested in Maxi Carey. Their head coach Tony Clark did appear at the Champions League final, but everyone thought he was there to support
Hu Lai. Unexpectedly, he was inspecting Maxi Carey!
"The joining of Maxi Carey has made many Leeds City fans ecstatic. For the club to be able to sign a superstar, this not only proves the club's ambition, but also proves the current attractiveness and influence of Leeds City...

"Holy shit, Hu Lai, your home was stolen!"
When the Chinese national team players were having breakfast in the hotel, Chen Xingyi exclaimed.
Hu Lai rolled his eyes at him: "What are you talking about? It's obvious that the guy's home was robbed."
Zhou Zijing, who was chewing an apple, swallowed the pulp in his mouth: "It's none of my business!"
Someone is very gossipy:
"Hey Hu Lai, didn't you know before that Kyrie would go to Leeds City?"
Hu Lai shook his head: "I don't know. We all thought he must be going to Insoubre..."
"Kaili went to Leeds City...Zhou Zijing, your position is in danger!" Someone shouted in the direction of Zhou Zijing.
Before Zhou Zijing could speak, Zhang Qinghuan shook his head: "No. Even if Kyrie goes to Leeds City, he should not play as a forward, but as a midfielder. Leeds City's offensive organization has always relied mainly on William.
Williams is an excellent B2B player, but when it comes to the sophistication of offensive organization, he is still not that good. After Kyrie goes, he can help Williams share the work of organizing the offense. So Kyrie went to Leeds City.
Not only will it not threaten Zhou Zijing, it will actually be a good thing for Zhou Zijing, after all, there is one more person to feed him."
Hu Lai said: "You elbow spirit, will you spit out Kaili's cake when the time comes and say: 'Bah! I don't eat what I eat!'?"
Everyone roared with laughter.
Zhou Zijing glared at him: "I'm not stupid!"
In the just-concluded Premier League season, Zhou Zijing scored seven league goals, one in the League Cup, two in the FA Cup, and just ten club goals, in double figures.
With Hu Lai's successful experience ahead of him, data like Zhou Zijing's seems completely inadequate.
But aside from Hu Lai's "non-human" data, Zhou Zijing's report card is very eye-catching.
After all, in addition to ten goals, he also has six assists in various competitions. He has completely surpassed Hu Lai this season.
The latter has only three assists in all competitions this season...
After Kaili joins, if he can feed Zhou Zijing like he gave assists to Hu Lai, then Zhou Zijing will definitely be the biggest winner of this transfer deal.
"But...I still don't understand why Kyrie chose Leeds City...Since Soubreh can play in the Champions League, what does Leeds City have? The Europa League...Ah, I'm not looking down on the Europa League."
When the people saw Zhang Qinghuan and Zhou Zijing, they quickly added.
Both of these people will play in the Europa League next season.
"Could it be that Kaili and you are exchanging extremes for one, Hu Lai?" Chen Xingyi touched Hu Lai's arm.
"What does it have to do with me?" Hu Lai spread his hands.
"You come to the Pirates from Leeds City to carry out a sneak attack, so he goes to blitz Leeds City." Chen Xingyi analyzed. "Maybe he went to Leeds City just to conquer the fans there and make them forget you?"
"Good fellow, that Zhou Zijing was the first to refuse!" Wang Guangwei said from the side.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Everyone knows that Luo Kai and Zhou Zijing have some kind of "hostility" towards Hu Lai, but this "hostility" is completely different from the previous hatred between players against players.
Now this "hostility" is more like a sense of competition and a competitive spirit.
Whether it is Zhou Zijing or Luo Kai, if they want to defeat Hu Lai and replace him, there is no problem.
After all, they just wanted to defeat Hu Lai, but before... they really wanted to break their competitor's legs.
Happy laughter circulated in the hotel restaurant.
Even the restaurant staff frequently glanced at the national football players. Although the staff in the Emirates hotel could not hear what the Chinese players were talking about, they could sense their mood from their laughter.
How could these people be smiling so happily if they weren't very relaxed?
The Chinese players are really relaxed, even though tomorrow night is a crucial match against Syria in the top 12.
No one felt nervous.
With the current strength of the Chinese team, even if it is an away game, there is no need to worry when facing a team of Syria's level.
The Chinese team only needs to defeat Syria tomorrow night, so no matter what the result of the match between Japan and Iran is, they will win the final tickets for the 2030 World Cup in Spain and Portugal in advance.
Qualifying for the World Cup finals two rounds ahead of schedule is an unprecedented experience for Chinese football.
In the last World Cup, they played all the play-offs and only broke out at the last moment.
Now they are just strolling around, chatting and laughing, and will qualify early.
What has changed is not only the performance of the Chinese team, but also the mentality of the Chinese team players.
If it were the previous group of players, there was a high probability that they would not be able to sleep well before this important game. Coupled with the coaching staff, the team leaders took turns meeting with them to do ideological work... It would simply make things worse. After playing, I am afraid
He couldn't even perform half of his usual training level.
The current national football team has no such problem at all.
Breakfast time passed while everyone was teasing and joking with each other.
※※※
"Chen Xingyi! Breakthrough! Send a cross...Zhou Zijing! Header!! Oops! It's a little high!"
He Feng was shocked, but in fact, the mentality of Chinese fans was relatively calm and they did not ride the roller coaster.
If the goal didn't go in, then it didn't go in. Anyway, judging from the scene, the Chinese team has completely gained the upper hand, and there will definitely be a possibility of scoring goals in the future.
What?
Are you saying that you can't score when you have the upper hand?
Ha, that’s impossible!
How could something like that happen to the Chinese team today?
We have Hu Lai!
There is no one on this planet who seizes opportunities better than him!
Because Hu Lai is in charge, everyone feels at ease.
Do you still need to be nervous when fighting in Syria?
nonexistent!
He Feng also quickly said in a calm tone: "The game has started for 22 minutes. Although the score is still 0:0, the Chinese team has already had four shots and the ball possession rate is as high as 61%.
It can be said that we have an overall advantage...I think as long as we keep playing at this pace, the goals will come sooner or later..."
Yan Kang echoed: "That's right, He Feng. Now the national football team has a good mentality, not impatient or impatient. Although Syria has a bus at their home court, they also play very patiently. Eight of the eleven players are
They are players who have studied abroad in Europe, and almost all of them have experience in European competitions... This season, four of them have reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League, not to mention Hu Lai, who just won the Champions League... This Chinese team is becoming more and more popular.
Mature, I think it is already at the top level in Asian level competitions..."
Yan Kang said this and was not afraid of losing his character.
This is also a manifestation of confidence. You can compete with Syria in the top 12, but you still need to save your character?
※※※
It seems to be to prove that everyone's confidence in the Chinese team is correct.
In the 34th minute of the game, Luo Kai cut from the wing to the center, attracted the attention of two Syrian defensive players, and then passed the football into the penalty area.
Hu Lai, who was running diagonally into the space, made a circle and received Luo Kai's pass, and then shot directly from a small angle!
The Syrian goalkeeper fell to the ground reflexively and tried to block the football with his feet.
He did kick the ball, but he didn't block it out of the baseline, but... blocked it into his own goal!
1:0!
The Chinese team takes the lead!
"Beautiful! Hu Lai! Beautiful! Ha! Look, isn't this goal coming?" He Feng said in a very Versailles tone. "Even if Syria chooses to use the bus tactic, under the three-dimensional offensive of the Chinese team, it will still be
It's useless... The key is that we have a very efficient forward! If you have the ability, don't give Hu Lai a chance in the whole game, otherwise you will just wait to pick the ball from the net!"
※※※
Hulay's goal helped the Chinese team completely knock on the door of Syria. Syria, which originally chose to defend, could no longer defend due to the score behind.
In fact, they had already completely missed the top 12 of the seven rounds of the World Cup finals. Although they were ranked fourth, which is not bad from the ranking point of view, they only accumulated four points, which was a lot less than third-placed Iran.
With ten points, it is impossible to qualify for the play-offs.
For them, this game is just a battle of honor.
It's not about qualifying for the World Cup.
Since we can no longer defend it, we might as well throw off the burden and attack!
Then they conceded goals again in the 44th minute, 59th minute and 73rd minute.
The goals were scored by Zhou Zijing, Xia Xiaoyu and Chen Xingyi.
Hu Lai?
He was replaced in the 61st minute, ending all his games in the 2028-2029 season.
According to Chinese media statistics, including the 13 goals scored by the Olympic team, he has scored a total of 108 goals in all competitions this season, setting a record.
Of course, according to European media statistics, excluding the 13 goals scored by the Olympic team, Hulay scored a total of 95 goals this season, which is also a record.
When Chen Xingyi scored, Hu Lai was on the bench waving towels and celebrating with other teammates as a member of the "atmosphere group".
"4:0! The game is over! No need to wait for the result of tomorrow's match between Japan and Iran, the Chinese team has already won the ticket to next year's World Cup in Spain and Portugal!" He Feng said happily.
"The World Cup is here again! Just like what I said after we played the last World Cup group match three years ago, I believe we can still appear in the World Cup finals in four years! Three
We made an agreement with everyone years ago to see each other at the World Cup in Spain and Portugal. Now we have kept our promise and come back to this four-year appointment! But this time, I think it will be a little different!"
