Chapter 1980 A wonderful moment for Chinese football
When they saw Hu Lai running towards the baseline to catch the ball, not many people took the Chinese team's offense seriously.
After all, judging from the flight trajectory of the football, many people can easily come to the conclusion that even if the ball can be stopped by Hu Lai, it will still be on the baseline.
The best he can do is pass the football back.
Both Chinese and English fans have begun to pay more attention and eyes to the players from both sides running into the penalty area at this time.
Speculating which Chinese player will become the connecting point.
Especially after Hu Lai stopped the ball, they all looked away from Hu Lai.
But at this moment, Hu Lai turned around and hung the door!
When these people's eyes returned to Hu Lai, they discovered that the football was already in the goal!
What's happening here?!
They had question marks on their foreheads, wondering what had just happened.
I didn't stare at Hu Lai for more than a second...how did the ball go in?!
The cheers that rang out at Pirates Park were deafening - regardless of whether they understood the situation or not, the Chinese fans only needed to cheer for the goal, no matter how he scored!
Unless the referee calls it out...
Someone turned their attention to the referee. After seeing him blow the whistle, he turned and pointed to the center circle!
The goal is valid!
The cheers got louder.
"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU——!! GOLGOLGOLGOLGOLGOLGOL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!! Hu! His goal at this time almost killed the England team!"
"Wow! Hu! He completed a hat trick! This is his first hat trick in this World Cup! He also became the first player in the 21st century to complete hat tricks in two World Cups!"
"Hu Lai...ah! A great goal! A goal from zero angle! It's so unexpected! An imaginative goal. England's goalkeeper Tom Walker stood in the near corner without making any movement at all.
I didn’t expect that Hu Lai would choose this way of shooting, right?”
"Classic! Not only Hu's goal, but also this game! England and China teamed up to present a feast to fans all over the world! I even think this is the most exciting game in this World Cup so far!"
Matthew Cox put his head in his hands and said painfully: "I can't complain about why Wilson didn't stick to Hu tightly, because when Hu received the ball, I didn't expect him to shoot... So I think,
It is normal that Wilson did not expect it. But conceding the ball at this time is indeed fatal, and it is difficult for us to get back the time - yes, miracles happen in football matches, and Colin saved the penalty kick at the last minute
It is already a miracle. Hu’s goal in the 119th minute is also a miracle. How can so many miracles happen in one game..."
He inserted his hands into his hair, picked up a handful, and said painfully.
In the stands of Pirates Park, there were countless England fans who did the same thing as him.
They all looked at the stadium, dumbfounded, as if tens of thousands of ducks had been choked.
No sound was made, not even a boo.
The momentum and atmosphere at the scene today are all created by Chinese fans.
All the Chinese fans were cheering and carousing.
In addition to Chinese fans, there are also a large number of Spanish fans.
Many of them are not even Pirates fans, they just come to watch the fun.
As long as England are eliminated, they are happy.
※※※
Unlike those at the scene who missed Hulay's goal because they focused on other players.
Chinese fans who watched the live TV broadcast saw the entire scoring process.
Because the TV broadcast gave a close-up shot after Hu Lai caught the ball, and there were only two people in the shot, Hu Lai and Scott Wilson.
No one can divert their attention even if they want to.
When Hu Lai turned around and started to ejaculate, countless fans in front of the TV let out exclamations of surprise.
When the football finally hit the goal, the emotions of the Chinese fans poured out like a flood, destroying everything in front of them...
Everyone in Chu Yifan's home was cheering, and some people were hugging each other.
Yan Yan was raising his arms and shouting: "Hu Lai! Son of the plane! Someone who can always be trusted...ahem!"
Then he was hugged from the side. Unprepared, he choked on his own saliva and coughed repeatedly.
When he reacted, he realized that the person hugging him was actually...Jiang Yin!
The female colleague hugged him and still shouted excitedly: "Great! Great! Oh! Great! We won! We won! Brother Yan, we won! We won!"
※※※
"we won!!"
In the stadium stands, when Hu Lai scored, Xie Lan turned around and hugged Li Qingqing, shouting excitedly to her.
In fact, strictly speaking, the Chinese team has not won yet. Because there is injury time in overtime, there may be two or three minutes of injury time in the end.
Theoretically, it is possible for England to equalize the score again.
So we can't make a final conclusion yet.
But Li Qingqing did not explain this problem to her future mother-in-law.
She believed that her mother-in-law, who had watched the game for so many years, could not even think of such a simple thing.
She was just too happy.
When you are so happy, don't let yourself down...
So Li Qingqing hugged Xie Lan and cheered with her.
Next to the two women, the two men, Li Ziqiang and Hu Lixin, could not conceal their excitement. They waved their arms and fists desperately, gritted their teeth, and looked ferocious.
Other Chinese fans in the stands nearby had a similar reaction.
The buzzer beater is the most exciting moment in the game, and this moment belongs to the Chinese team!

"Hat trick! Sure enough, there is a BUFF bonus at Pirates Park!" Han Shuyu shouted excitedly, while using his mobile phone to take pictures of the cheering fans in the stands.
"In the past few seasons playing for Madrid Pirates, Hulay has become more and more amazing! Who could have imagined this zero-angle goal?! Oh my god! After he stopped the ball, all I could think about was what he should do next.
Whoever passed the ball to him, who would have thought he was so good at doing it...he just turned around and shot! He scored from zero angle! Awesome!"
Hu Lai failed to make his signature celebration as he was pulled to the ground midway by the excited Chinese players.
Therefore, Han Shuyu in the stands did not have the chance to follow everyone and shout "HUUUUU!!!"
"It's still a bit of a pity...it's a hat trick after all!"
She muttered.
Li Qingliang laughed and said: "Who cares about that at this time! Everyone is crazy!"
※※※
"Oh, God……"
John Falkenhayn covered his face with his hands and groaned in pain.
Amid the cheers of the Chinese and Spanish fans, the English fans were silent.
These English fans from Leeds have more mixed feelings.
Their favorite player scores a hat-trick against their home country and could possibly... possibly knock out their home team.
"This is too cruel..." Levin sighed.
"When two teams meet, the result is destined to be cruel, and one side will always leave..." David Miller whispered. "We should know this."
"Yes, we know. But David, when this scene actually happened, it was still difficult to accept..." Levin said.
David Miller didn't answer him, and no one else spoke.
The stands fell into silence again, as quiet as a morgue in a hospital.
Every England fan is as close to a walking zombie as you can get.
Before the World Cup, they were extremely ambitious. The English media all advocated that this was the "strongest England team in history." The odds offered by various betting companies also told them that this "strongest England team in history" was the favorite to win the World Cup.
.
The result...is it still the same as four years ago, being eliminated in the top 16?
Yes, we admit that this quarter-final match is exciting... but we are fucking England fans, not neutral fans watching the excitement!
We want to win!
To advance!
No matter what the price is!
Some England fans came to their senses and began to boo.
It’s just hard to say whether the boos are for the Chinese team that scored the goal or the England team...
The boos were mixed with the cheers, becoming the noisy breeze at Pirates Park.
Ryan Jackson stood blankly in front of the coach's bench, and the list of penalty kicks that had been formed in his mind was blown away by the noisy wind in the Madrid night sky.
Although the game is not over yet, it seems that all that is left is... a dying struggle?
※※※
Ryan Jackson's frustration is justified, and not only is he frustrated, but other England players are not much better.
Hu Lai scored a hat-trick at the last minute of the game, which was really demoralizing.
Many people immediately remembered the fear of being dominated by Hu Lai in the Premier League. They were almost suffering from PTSD and had no morale...
The players who played for Tramed thought of the match in the 37th round of the Premier League in the 2025-2026 season. Leeds City defeated Tramed at the Red Roof Stadium with Hulay's winning goal and won the trophy.
The most important game before the Premier League trophy.
Players who play at Stan Park Rangers think of the twenty-fifth round of the Premier League in the 2025-2026 season. Hulay scored a hat-trick at Stan Park Rangers' home court, helping Leeds City defeat Stan Park Rangers 4:3.
The foundation was laid for the final victory.
The Leeds City players...remembered countless classic scenes of Hulay. They knew Hulay's power better than anyone else, and they all knew what it meant to be scored by Hulay three goals.
The last three minutes of the game are no different than garbage time for the England players.
They did not organize any offensive that could threaten the Chinese team's goal. Even if there was a shot, it did not threaten Lin Zhiyuan, who wanted to perform a wonderful save at the last moment.
Just like that, we waited for the three whistles of the referee.
"The game is over! Congratulations to the Chinese team. After 120 minutes of competition, they eliminated the favorite England team 4:3 and entered the quarterfinals!"
Deafening cheers echoed over the stadium, and the commentators roared.
This is a wonderful moment for Chinese football!

PS, I started updating orders today. How long it will take depends on the specific accumulation situation. I hope I can accumulate enough articles before the start of the next game.
I will work hard!
In addition, today is New Year's Eve, and I will also go back to my parents' house to have a reunion dinner together and have a simple New Year.
Of course, I will not relax and will still bring the computer to code.
This is the last Spring Festival for Hu Lai, Li Qingqing and others to accompany you. I will try my best to bring this book to a successful conclusion and complete the story I had planned long ago. It will be worthy of the nearly seven million words I have put in.
of hard work.
I would also like to wish all readers and friends a happy Spring Festival, good health to their families, good health in the new year, all the best, and all your wishes come true!
