Chapter 73 He is my classmate (please vote for recommendation)
The game time passed by minute by second, and it was getting closer and closer to the end of the eighty-minute game.
Li Ziqiang is still standing on the sidelines, paying close attention to the situation on the court.
He didn't let down his guard just because the game was coming to an end.
Because he knows very well that the more times this happens, the easier it is for a goal to be scored - whether it is a goal or a goal.
Feng Yuanchang looked away from Li Ziqiang's back and said to his assistant coach: "Dongchuan Middle School wants to play penalty kicks with us."
"Then let's let them get what they want?"
Feng Yuanchang shook his head: "It doesn't matter, we have also prepared a penalty kick. At this time, we cannot give them a chance just because we are eager for success. You must know that the last five minutes of the game are the easiest to score."
The old coach thought that there had been too many surprises in this game, and he was worried about another surprise at the last moment of the game, so he decided to play it safe.
I'd rather take a penalty kick.
After the score was equalized, he realized that taking penalty kicks was not necessarily a bad thing for Jiaxiang High School.
How could a team that specializes in defense neglect penalty kick training?
If Dongchuan Middle School thought that dragging Jiaxiang High School into a penalty shootout would increase their chances of winning, I wouldn't mind letting the people in Dongchuan Middle School fully understand why Jiaxiang High School is now the leader in high school football in Andong Province.
Li Ziqiang glanced at the coaching bench of Jiaxiang High School and sighed in his heart. He didn't know whether to call Feng Yuanchang stable or cowardly...
Generally high school football is full of vigor and youthful impulse, so it is a little lacking in tactical discipline. But Feng Yuanchang was able to train Jiaxiang High School so steadily...
They didn't seem to mind playing a penalty shootout with Dongchuan Middle School.
Using penalty kicks to decide the outcome with Jiaxiang High School was Li Ziqiang's last backup plan.
But in fact, if he had a choice, he didn't want to do it.
Although in theory, penalty kicks are a plan acceptable to Dongchuan Middle School, wouldn't Jiaxiang High School also be prepared to take penalty kicks?
You know, in the past seven years, Jiaxiang High School has reached the finals every time. They definitely have more experience in the finals than Dongchuan Middle School. Coach Feng Yuanchang has seen all kinds of situations in the finals. How could he be so negligent that he was not prepared?
ball?
Perhaps in Andong Province, their strength does not require extreme decisive measures such as penalty kicks.
But what about going to the national competition?
This team definitely has more experience in taking penalty kicks than Dongchuan Middle School.
So in fact, Li Ziqiang just had some luck. He hoped that Feng Yuanchang would not be reconciled to a draw with Dongchuan Middle School for the sake of Jiaxiang High School's face, and then decide the winner with a penalty kick, playing Russian roulette.
.
It is hoped that Feng Yuanchang will encourage the team to actively counterattack with this idea, trying to eliminate Dongchuan Middle School within eighty minutes.
In that case, their midfielder would not be able to support the defense for a long time and would have to press forward to participate in the attack. Luo Kai and Chu Yifan would have more space.
As a result, Feng Yuanchang remained unmoved and let the team continue to maintain its previous defensive posture.
Facing the rock-steady Feng Yuanchang, Li Ziqiang had no better means.
He decided to use up the last substitution of the game and replaced Tang Yuan with midfielder Lu Pengfei.
This substitution is preparation for the penalty shootout.
Because Lu Pengfei's penalty kick ability is better.
When pushing Lu Pengfei to the fourth official, Li Ziqiang began to arrange the order of appearance for the penalty shootout in his mind.
As Chu Yifan is the captain, Li Ziqiang plans to put him first to play. He wants to make a good start for the team, and it is very important to play first.
And Luo Kai... After thinking about it, Li Ziqiang decided to let him play fifth. The fifth one is the last one, and it is also a very important order of appearance. It may be a penalty that determines life and death. Luo Kai has comprehensive skills and psychological quality.
Not bad, it should be no problem to arrange for the fifth appearance to take on important tasks.
Thinking of this, Li Ziqiang took out a small notebook from his pocket, took out the ballpoint pen pinned to the notebook, and began to lower his head to record.
In a few minutes, this list will decide the fate of Dongchuan Middle School.

"Oh, it looks like there will be a penalty kick in this game." Xia Wu sighed.
"Isn't it exciting to play penalty kicks?" Xia Xiaoyu asked curiously.
"It's quite exciting for neutral fans, but we can obviously resolve the battle in eighty minutes, why do we have to take penalty kicks..." Xia Wu rolled his eyes at his cousin, why didn't this man know that he was standing here in his own school?
Side?
"It's all Luo Kai's fault for scoring that goal!" Xia Wu's classmates found the culprit.
"Damn it! 1:0 was enough for us to win!"
"What's even more disgusting is, why is Luo Kai not one of us!"
Xia Xiaoyu did not participate in everyone's condemnation of Luo Kai. He continued to stare at the court.
Now Dongchuan Middle School is launching an attack, but he didn't look where the football was. He was staring at No. 14.
He is now more interested in No. 14 than anything else. He just wants to see how No. 14 will run.
※※※
Hu Lai still regrets that Wang Guangwei did not let him sing. He has always felt that his singing voice is quite good. If he didn't like football so much, singing would be another way.
But it seems like Fatty Song doesn’t think so?
who cares……
Hu Lai is running into the penalty area of Jiaxiang High School. It is now the attack time of Dongchuan Middle School.
Of course, he didn't rush forward, because he would soon be offside.
As he ran, he looked back to see how far the football had advanced, and then decided how to run next.
He first ran sideways, with Wang Guangwei following him.
Then he ran back, with Wang Guangwei still following him.
Finally, he turned back and ran towards the penalty area of Jiaxiang High School, but Wang Guangwei still followed him.
"Brother, you should guard against Luo Kai. Really, he is super powerful. I won't bother you here..." While running, Hu Lai turned to Wang Guangwei and said.
Wang Guangwei remained unmoved and continued to follow Hu Lai without saying a word.
But he felt a little proud in his heart - in the end, all your words were useless. Do you think you can influence me with some dirty tricks?
hehe.
※※※
Dongchuan Middle School's offense did not reach the penalty area of Jiaxiang High School. In fact, as Jiaxiang High School tightened its defense, Dongchuan Middle School's offense slowed down as soon as it entered the offensive third zone.
Facing the Jiaxiang High School, which was waiting for them, they had no good solution.
When Chu Yifan received the ball, the opponent's midfielder immediately pounced on him and entangled him, preventing him from releasing the ball easily and not giving him a chance to raise his head to observe.
In desperation, Chu Yifan could only pass the football to Lu Pengfei, who had just been replaced.
Now the defensive pressure he faced was lessened. When the opponent saw him passing the ball, they retreated a little and continued to maintain the integrity and compactness of the three lines.
Only at this time did Chu Yifan have the opportunity to look up and observe the situation.
He first quickly glanced at Luo Kai and found that Luo Kai was surrounded by three people. Then he turned his attention to Hu Lai, who was also followed by Wang Guangwei.
Chu Yifan frowned, unable to find the target and direction of the pass at all...
If this continues, Dongchuan Middle School's attack will be in vain again - he can only pass it back, reorganize the attack, and mobilize Jiaxiang High School's defense. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous to continue to pass the ball in the frontcourt like this.
It's dangerous, Jiaxiang High School may steal and then counterattack at any time.
The opponent does not need to invest any counterattack force or destroy the integrity of the defense line. They can just rely on Xu Gaofei to sneak attack alone. If he can steal from them, he will make money. If he cannot steal from them, he will not lose anything. And because he is worried about this kind of sneak attack from Jiaxiang High School, Dongchuan
The middle school did not dare to invest too many troops when attacking, resulting in their offense lacking hierarchy and threat...
Just when Chu Yifan was about to direct Lu Pengfei to pass the football back, he saw Hu Lai leading Wang Guangwei running towards the left rib of the penalty area. He suddenly realized that as a result, an unusual figure appeared in the middle.
Big opening...
Since Hulay came on the field in this game, he has run in the penalty area many times. Although he only completed one shot, this does not mean that he was running blindly.
As a midfield organizer, Chu Yifan could see how threatening Hu Lai's movement was, otherwise Jiaxiang High School would not have asked Wang Guangwei to guard him.
So now he feels that Hu Lai must have some purpose for running like this.
Keep observing and find his purpose!
His eyes moved quickly to observe the situation around Hu Lai.
Then he saw Hu Lai running towards Wu Yue with Wang Guangwei, approaching Luo Kai.
Wu Yue also noticed Hu Lai's movement. He turned his head and glanced at Hu Lai quickly.
Chu Yifan frowned. There were already enough people on Wu Yue's side. After all, there was Luo Kai. Jiaxiang High School's defensive focus was over there. So if Hu Lai goes over now, wouldn't it make it even more crowded?
?
What's the use of plunging into the dragnet prepared for Luo Kai?
Could it be that Hu Lai was really in a panic and ran away this time?
Or maybe he wanted to form a cooperation with Luo Kai, so he got closer?
No...that's absolutely not the case.
Although the two are classmates, there seems to be rumors that the two do not have a good relationship.
Think about it quickly, Chu Yifan, think about what he is going to do...
Chu Yifan felt a little anxious. His brain was running rapidly. Maybe his brain had never been so active even during the usual mock exams.
Point before running, there is a gap behind you... Point before running, there is a gap behind you... Point forward, there is a gap behind you... Behind you!
Chu Yifan suddenly remembered that special training.
Hu Lai ran to the front point, making everyone think that he was going to grab a shot from the front point, but who knew that he was just taking a feint, and his real purpose was to go to the back point - if Mao Xiao had not hit the ball at that time, football would definitely
Flying backwards.
And this kind of running method didn't only appear once in that special training.
Thinking of this, Chu Yifan felt that he should have guessed Hu Lai's true purpose, and he planned to try it once.
It doesn't matter if it fails, anyway, this attack is about to be unstoppable - just when he was thinking about countermeasures quickly, Lu Pengfei had already passed the football to the midfielder Liu Haowen who had stepped in, and Liu Haowen was trying to
Pass the football to Luo Kai.
In previous games, if they couldn't think of a good way to attack, everyone would pass the football to Luo Kai and let him solve the problem.
So Liu Haowen is right to think so.
But now Chu Yifan had a better idea, so he quickly ran forward, approaching the penalty area, and shouted to Liu Haowen: "Give me the ball!"
He did so without forgetting to take another look at the penalty area.
Hu Lai turned back to the middle road.
But Chu Yifan didn't think his guess was wrong. The reason why Hu Lai turned back was because no one passed the ball at that time and the opportunity was not good.
He turned back, so naturally he can turn back again.
Liu Haowen heard Chu Yifan's shout and quickly passed the football to the captain. It was better to leave this kind of offensive organization to the captain.
After passing the ball, he quickly took a few steps back and prepared to defend.
The football rolled against the turf towards Chu Yifan.
※※※
When Hu Lai ran towards Wu Yue just now, no ball was passed to him, so he turned around and ran back when he was about to run.
Wang Guangwei also followed back very cooperatively.
In the eyes of outsiders, the two people were synchronized as if they were dancing a waltz, as if they were not rivals, but dancing partners with a tacit understanding.
They took one step, two steps, three steps side by side, then turned around at the same time, took another step, two steps... Even the rhythm of their steps was exactly the same.
During this process, Hu Lai did not forget to chat with Wang Weiguang: "Hey, brother, has anyone given you any advice? In fact, the best way to keep your hair straight is to shave all your hair?"
When Wang Weiguang heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched - he was not even willing to shave his head, so he would be willing to shave his head?!
Star players in national competitions don’t want to lose face, right?
Isn't there a certain pot that you don't want to open and pick up?
Do you think this will disturb me?
childish!
"I'm telling you, brother, if you shave your head, in today's sunny weather, can you..."
When Hu Lai said this, his eyes were still looking around. He saw the football being passed towards Chu Yifan.
Moreover, Chu Yifan had already pressed outside the penalty area.
So before he finished speaking, he suddenly dropped Wang Guangwei, turned around again, and pounced on Wu Yue!
Although in previous games, Hu Lai had already done something like suddenly speeding up and running while talking, this time Wang Guangwei was still stunned for a moment because he was really curious about what he could do.
Of course, the powerful Wang Guangwei immediately chased after him, just like a hunting dog chasing a hare, biting at his side and stuck inside him.
When Wu Yue saw Chu Yifan pressing forward, he focused all his attention on Luo Kai. As a result, out of the corner of his eye, he saw No. 14 and the captain coming again!
He turned his head and looked over, with a trace of doubt in his eyes. He didn't understand the meaning of two people practicing turning back and running here.
Seeing that the other party was about to run in front of him, the distance was already very close. But at this moment, he heard No. 14 suddenly shout: "Luo Kai, run behind me!"
Wu Yue only felt that his scalp was numb - because he really saw an opening behind No. 14! That was supposed to be the position of the captain, but now the captain is following No. 14!
He immediately understood what the opponent was trying to do: He was relying on No. 14 to pull away the captain and create opportunities for Luo Kai to cross! The two of them had to cross paths!
Damn! I was careless!
Luo Kai was stunned by Hu Lai's voice. Although this was very inappropriate during the game, he really didn't expect that Hu Lai, whom he had always looked down on, would take the initiative to sacrifice himself to create opportunities for him...
Seemingly seeing that he didn't move immediately, Hu Lai added: "Run!"
Before Luo Kai could run away, Wu Yue, who was guarding Luo Kai, turned around and rushed back.
※※※
Xia Xiaoyu stood in the stands. He could clearly see the situation in the penalty area of Jiaxiang High School from a high position. He watched Hu Lai plunge into the encirclement targeting Luo Kai, and a brief gap appeared behind him.
Could this be a cross-running move with Luo Kai, leaving Luo Kai free in the middle?
But that’s not right! Jiaxiang High School’s No. 6 Huang Zheng has already tried to make up for it. Jiaxiang players have a very strong sense of defense...
Just when Xia Xiaoyu couldn't figure out the meaning of No. 14 running like this, he saw No. 14 suddenly turning around!
He turned back again!
This is his third turnaround on this route!
Turn back and run!
But turning back is a dead end!
wrong!
Xia Xiaoyu's eyes quickly shifted to Chu Yifan outside the penalty area. Then he saw that the football had left Chu Yifan's right foot, drew a parabola in the air, passed over the head of a Jiaxiang High School player, and fell into the penalty area behind him.
!
He did not pass the football to the space in the middle that he saw before, but to the route back on the 14th!
Xia Xiaoyu's fists clenched!
※※※
Wang Guangwei has been keeping an eye on No. 14. Even if he calls out Luo Kai's name, he is not distracted, because he knows that Luo Kai has Wu Yue to deal with him, and he only needs to keep an eye on this person.
Sure enough, in the corner of his vision, he caught a glimpse of Wu Yue completing his turn and about to pass him by.
But just when Wu Yue's figure almost covered most of No. 14, he saw the other party turn around suddenly!
He completed his turn almost at the same time, synchronized as if he were one person, and everything was just like the previous turn back.
But this time when Wang Guangwei wanted to speed up and get close to Hu Lai, he unexpectedly found that Wu Yue was sandwiched between him and the kid, and even slightly closer to him!
This made his speed increase slightly slower by half a second, because he had to dodge to avoid Wu Yue!
When he got out of the way of Wu Yue, he saw No. 14 turning his head to look outside the penalty area...
He followed No. 14's gaze and saw that the football was flying towards No. 14!
Now there was probably more than half a body distance between him and No. 14. He stretched out one hand to grab the other person's shoulder, and at the same time, his whole body was ejected!
It is impossible to completely catch up with this person and get close to him. Now all Wang Guangwei can do is to try his best to block his shot!
※※※
Luo Kai was yelled at by Hu Lai twice, and he really planned to insert himself into the space behind Hu Lai, although he didn't understand how this kid Hu Lai changed his gender and was willing to make a wedding dress for himself...
But just as he was leaning forward to start, he saw Hu Lai suddenly turned around and ran back.
Almost at the same time, he knew what this kid wanted to do - he used himself as a cover...
This bastard is really his style, and I was still a little shaken in my heart just now, and I wanted to believe his nonsense!
Luo Kai now gave up the idea of running and just stood there, watching the football fly towards Hu Lai.
This attack has nothing to do with him at all.
※※※
Feng Yuanchang, who was off the field, saw Wang Guangwei turning back a little slower than half a beat, and suddenly stood up from the coaching bench, realizing that the situation was not good!
In fact, if Wang Guangwei hadn't reacted quickly, he would have collided with Wu Yue as an ordinary defender, and both of them fell to the ground...
He widened his eyes and stared at the figure in front of the door.
Wang Guangwei is already approaching. As long as this person makes a slight adjustment when stopping the ball, he will not have a chance to shoot!
There is still hope, the most dangerous time has not yet come!
※※※
Hu Lai didn't know if No. 4 had successfully blocked Wang Guangwei for him, and he didn't bother to turn around to confirm it now.
He saw the football flying over, falling from the sky, and drawing an arc.
This scene seemed familiar, just like the football he kicked towards the shelf on the playground of Dongchuan Middle School. It was caught by the tight rope net, flew upwards, and flew in front of him. The arc was almost the same as now.
.
The head coach's roar suddenly sounded in his mind: "Stop the ball and shoot again!"
Yes, he should stop the ball before shooting for the best chance.
But he always worried that if he stopped the ball and then shot, he might not be able to shoot...
He looked at the flying football and swung his right leg outward while running.
It was like he opened a door for the football, and the football fell in, almost touching the ground.
※※※
Li Ziqiang, who was on the sidelines, took a breath when he saw Hu Lai's action.
"This bastard..."
He knew what Hu Lai was going to do.
In fact, when the football flew toward Hu Lai, he had already gnashed his teeth and said "Don't shoot directly" in his heart countless times.
We finally got the opportunity, let alone just kicking it onto the runway behind us!
Before he finished speaking, he saw Hu Lai's right foot hit the football!
※※※
When the arch of Hu Lai's foot came into contact with the football, Wang Guangwei's hand finally grabbed Hu Lai's shoulder. Then he pushed down hard without caring whether it was a foul or not, and then used this force to shovel his left leg towards the ball.
Hu Lai's feet.
Use your hands and feet to stop this shot!
Bang!
The football whizzed past Huang Zheng's outstretched toes.
It whizzed past goalkeeper Zhou Yang's fingers.
Fly to the sky.
Then he was blocked by a metal beam.
Bang!
The ball turned down again.
Hit the white goal line.
Go up again.
Rising from behind Zhou Yang who was flying in the air.
As if it must fly into the sky.
Until it was caught in the white net.
Then all upward momentum was lost.
Falling from mid-air.
He fell to the ground simultaneously with the falling Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang is outside the door.
The football is in the goal.
※※※
After finishing the shot, Hu Lai lost his balance, and his vision suddenly changed from the goal to the white sky.
He fell backwards.
Half of his body seemed to have been hit by something.
But he didn't care about that, he only cared about the result of his shot.
It seems I didn’t hear the cheers…
Oops, did it fly again?
It's over. The coach will definitely scold me when I get back. Now I really have to practice the basics for a year until I am a sophomore in high school...
Hu Lai wailed in his heart.
At this time, Wang Guangwei, who was pinned down by Hu Lai, still maintained a tackle position. His head avoided the impact of Hu Lai's fall, and he was struggling to twist toward the goal.
He wanted to confirm the result of his defense.
Zhou Yang lay on the ground.
The football is behind him.
He suddenly felt something moving on his scalp, itching a little, and then a strand of hair stuck together by hairspray hung in front of his eyes.
※※※
Li Ziqiang stood blankly on the sidelines, looking at the crowd in front of Jiaxiang High School.
He thought of what his daughter once said to him:
——Dad, did you know? The person who completed the hat trick with his face today is my classmate.
——He is very talented!

It's a pity it's not Monday, otherwise it would be better.
