Fox in the Penalty Area

Chu Yifan had already stood up from his seat, and none of the roommates beside him were sitting in their seats, they were all standing and watching the game.

The game has started more than 20 minutes, and the score is still 0:0.

Without Luo Kai, Dongchuan Middle School did not lose its strength as some people imagined.

On the contrary, they fought back and forth with the fourth-ranked Renmin High School of the previous session, and they did not fall behind at all.

This made Chu Yifan feel extremely sad.

Last year, their Dongchuan Middle School participated in the national competition for the first time. In the first round of the competition, they played back and forth with Xizi Middle School, and they still had the upper hand. But what level is Xizi Middle School? It was only the fifteenth place in the last national competition.

In the second round, Dongchuan Middle School met Huitang Middle School, a semi-final team, and the scene fell into a passive state for a while.

Now, after a year, Dongchuan Middle School faced Renmin Middle School, the semi-finalists in the first round, and it was as good as playing against the top 16 teams, with back and forth...

This year, Coach Li and everyone in the team worked hard.

Chu Yifan could see that although the staffing of Dongchuan Middle School was different from that of the past, he could still see the overall progress of the team through the performance of his old teammates.

As the captain of the team and the main central defender, Yan Yan was a bit rough at first. But in the game against Renmin Middle School, he was well-founded, much calmer than before, with a faint air of a general.

There are also two full-backs, Wang Junchao was a sophomore in high school last year and a senior in high school this year, and they are also people Chu Yifan knows very well. The other Yang Mingwei was a freshman in high school last year and could only play as a substitute. This year he has become the team's main full-back.

Their changes are also very obvious. Under the team's tactical requirements, as long as there is an opportunity, they will actively advance and participate in the offense. Running up and down like this is very exhausting. But the two of them did not show any sense of fatigue.

Although the game lasted only 20 minutes, this kind of back and forth sprinting required a lot of physical fitness. If there is not enough physical fitness as a foundation, then neither Wang Junchao nor Yang Mingwei will be able to implement the tactics of the head coach. This shows that they have really worked hard in the training of the past year and improved their physical fitness.

In addition, there is Tang Yuan, who was the team's winger last year, but now retreats to become a right midfielder. Although he was far from the goal, he performed even better. Because retreating gives him more space to attack, he can just take advantage of his speed.

This made Chu Yifan deeply moved.

He's only been out of the team for less than a year, and so much has changed. This team is completely different from the one when they could only rely on Luo Kai.

Everyone is stronger than last year, so this team is naturally stronger than last year.

If the opponent still looks at the Dongchuan Middle School football team with old eyes, it may cause a big deviation...

Of course, the biggest change in this team is Hu Lai.

But what puzzled Chu Yifan was that Renmin Middle School didn't seem to see it that way...

From the very beginning of the game, they put their energy into competing with Dongchuan Middle School in the midfield, and their defense against Hu Lai was not very strict.

This made it difficult for Chu Yifan to understand, did the opponent not know that Hu Lai scored eleven goals in the Anton Cup,

Is it top scorer?

Or did they think that as long as they guarded against Xia Xiaoyu, they could cut off the pass route from Dongchuan Middle School to Hu Lai?

But just five minutes ago, Hu Lai had a chance in the penalty area. If his shot hadn't been slightly on point, it would have been blocked by Renmin Middle School goalkeeper Lu Jiachen.

The shot that Hu Lai got was not passed by Xia Xiaoyu, nor even by the midfielder of Dongchuan Middle School, but by the full-back Wang Junchao.

After Tang Yuan retracted, he gave way to the side. Wang Junchao pushed all the way up and played an imbricate attack with Tang Yuan. In the end, he made a successful cross from the side.

Shen Yulin grabbed the spot in front of the goal and attracted the opponent's defensive attention, but instead gave Hu Lai a chance. After stopping the ball, he shot decisively, and the football was saved by Lu Jiachen.

Although he failed to score a goal, it also caused a burst of exclamation from the stands.

In fact, Dongchuan Middle School played very concisely in this attack. Taking advantage of Renmin Middle School's entanglement in the midfield, they directly launched an offensive from the side.

But this time the attack that did not result in a goal did not seem to have aroused the vigilance and attention of Renmin Middle School.

Or they just regarded this attack as Shen Yulin's failure to grab a point, and Hu Lai picked up a leak in the penalty area.

However, if one lacks an understanding of Hu Lai and Dongchuan Middle School, one might really think that Xia Xiaoyu is the core of this team.

That's right.

A striker like Hu Lai is an opportunist. If he lacks the support of his teammates, he will be useless-it is very reasonable to have such an understanding.

But after Chu Yifan got to know Hu Lai, he thought that the word "opportunist" was used on Hu Lai, not to describe that he can only wait for his teammates to create opportunities before he can threaten, but to say that Hu Lai's ability to seize opportunities is very good. powerful.

There is a big difference between the two. The former means that someone must deliver shells for him before he can have a chance to score goals. It is equivalent to using many, many opportunities to feed him.

Hu Lai scored eleven goals in the Anton Cup and is the top scorer in the Anton Cup. But at the same time, Xia Xiaoyu also contributed ten assists, and he is the assist leader in the Anton Cup—it’s just that the top scorer has a special trophy, but the assist leader doesn’t—combining these two statistics, it’s easy to make people feel like Hu Lai is the top scorer by Xia Xiaoyu's continuous feeding of the ball.

But based on Chu Yifan's understanding of Hu Lai, he knew that Hu Lai was the kind of striker who was very good at capturing and utilizing opportunities. Compared with Luo Kai, the top scorer in the Anton Cup at that time, he was more efficient.

He doesn't need his teammates to constantly deliver shells to him and create opportunities for him-of course, it would be better to have such conditions. But if not, he can also use the limited opportunities to score goals.

You must know that Hu Lai was not very popular in the team before. Even so, he was not discouraged, and seized the only opportunity to score goals...

This is what Chu Yifan thinks is the strength of Hu Lai, and it is also the reason why he agrees with that boy Yan Yan's statement that Hu Lai is the "chosen son of heaven".

Too many people are blinded by Hu Lai's external conditions and style of play, and it is easy to ignore him. No matter how many goals he scores, he will inevitably have contempt.

Chu Yifan felt that Renmin High School should have this kind of fixed thinking from player to coach.

And beside him, his roommates also had the same idea, and all of them focused on Xia Xiaoyu, who performed outstandingly during the warm-up.

"Da Chu, that core player of yours seems to be in some trouble..."

"It's not a little trouble, but a big trouble?"

"Renmin Middle School's 'Four Knights of the White Night' are really not bragging. I think it is very difficult for Dongchuan Middle School's midfielder to compete with them."

When Chu Yifan heard what they said, he didn't refute. Instead, he just smiled and continued watching the game without saying anything.

※※※

Dongchuan Middle School did have trouble in the midfield.

This kind of trouble is not as simple as Xia Xiaoyu being entangled by someone from Renmin Middle School.

But in terms of the overall formation, when Xia Xiaoyu wants to lead Dongchuan Middle School's offense forward, he will encounter Renmin Middle School's entire midfield interception and blocking in the middle, making it difficult for him to find a forward line.

Coupled with Wang Xun's tight defense against him, it also made it difficult for him to hold the ball for a long time to find opportunities.

More often, he can only pass the football back or cross for safety.

Even so, he still has to worry about Song Yu, Zhang Xi and Yan Zheng's interception of his cross pass and return pass.

But Xia Xiaoyu didn't panic, because their head coach had already made it clear to him long before the game started.

The advantage of Renmin Middle School is a strong midfield, so they will definitely make a fuss about the midfield competition.

Therefore, Dongchuan Middle School's countermeasure is not to get too entangled with the opponent in the midfield, and use the two full backs and Tang Yuan's speed to go directly to the side.

It is enough to be simple and quick when transitioning the ball in the midfield. Don't be obsessed with opening the situation in the middle.

The timing is wrong, the opportunity is not good, and the football must be transferred to the wing immediately.

So Xia Xiaoyu knew very well that his game was a bait, tricking Renmin Middle School to focus on him and relax on the side.

When he got the ball again in the midfield, Wang Xun, the opponent's defensive midfielder, forced him up. Xia Xiaoyu could only turn around to protect the football, and then passed the football back to the central defender Mao Xiao.

After Mao Xiao received the ball, he passed the football to Wang Junchao, the right back who went up to the top.

As soon as Wang Junchao got the ball, Tang Yuan immediately pulled to the side to respond.

Wang Junchao passed the football again, and then continued to run forward after passing the ball.

※※※

Seeing this scene from the sidelines, Sun Yiming, head coach of Renmin Middle School, pouted.

Dongchuan Middle School's game was actually focused on wing attack... Did the opponent think he couldn't see this?

After all, Renmin Middle School has a stronger midfielder. Many teams will choose to avoid their edge in the middle when facing Renmin Middle School.

Sun Yiming looked at the coach bench of Dongchuan Middle School next door, and glanced at the head coach.

But the side attack still has to hit the center in the end.

This kind of tactic of flying on both wings and crossing from the wing will definitely be equipped with a high center forward in the center.

Shen Yulin, the No. 9 player of Dongchuan Middle School, happened to be such a high center forward.

Although there is very little information about this person, Sun Yiming still knows that Shen Yulin is good at heading, or only good at heading.

It is precisely because there is such a high center forward who is good at heading the ball that Dongchuan Middle School plays the tactic of crossing from the side so recklessly, right?

But our defenders are not vegetarians either, just a high center forward, so it is easier to defend.

Sun Yiming snorted in his heart.

If the opponent is forced to use the tactics of crossing from the side to deal with us, it means that we have already gained the upper hand...

※※※

Wang Junchao's forward drive not only attracted the attention of Renmin Middle School coach Sun Yiming, but also the attention of Renmin Middle School's defensive players.

Immediately, Song Yu came up to block Wang Junchao's way to continue pressing forward.

At the same time, Zhang Xi also retreated to defend Tang Yuan who was holding the ball. In front of Tang Yuan, the left back of Renmin Middle School stood far away. Breakthrough - Sun Yiming knew that Tang Yuan's greatest ability was his speed, so he specially instructed his players to keep a proper distance from Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan saw that Renmin High School was defending on his side, and without hesitation, he immediately passed the football diagonally to the other side of the court with a big foot.

Because the ball was here before, Renmin Middle School's defensive focus has obviously shifted to this side. So there was a gap on the other side.

The football flew high across the middle of the field and to the left.

Another midfielder from Dongchuan Middle School, the left midfielder Ma Shuang ran to the sideline and leaped high, barely stopping the ball with his chest.

And just when he stopped the ball, Yang Mingwei, the left back of Dongchuan Middle School, had advanced at high speed and rushed in front of him.

So Ma Shuang pushed the ball straight forward and gave it to Yang Mingwei who was going forward.

At this time, the center of gravity of Renmin Middle School's formation shifted.

"A precise big foot transfer!" The commentator also applauded the transfer of Dongchuan Middle School. When the right side could not continue to develop, he decisively shifted the football to the left, and immediately tore a hole in the defense line of Renmin Middle School.

The cheers from the stands also rang out, Chu Yifan's roommates couldn't help but slapped when they saw this foot transfer: "It's beautiful!"

Chu Yifan turned his eyes back from the left side, and looked for Hu Lai.

Hu Lai did not rush into the penalty area with his arms raised.

On the contrary, when Dongchuan Middle School's offensive had accelerated, he was still outside the penalty area.

Instead, Xia Xiaoyu and Shen Yulin appeared one after the other in the restricted area of ​​Renmin Middle School. Among them, Shen Yulin went to the front and Xia Xiaoyu went straight to the middle.

Of course, the actions of the two of them were immediately noticed by the two central defenders of Renmin Middle School.

Yang Mingwei, who went forward at high speed, caught up with the football and had reached the third attacking zone. He raised his eyes to observe the goal, and before the right back of the People's Middle School had time to block his passing route, he made a decisive pass. !

Chu Yifan has been staring at Hu Lai, not paying attention to the situation on the side. When he saw Hu Lai suddenly speeding up and rushing into the penalty area, and running diagonally to the back point, he immediately turned his gaze to the side. , just in time to see the last move in Yang Mingwei's biography.

The football is already in the air, flying into the penalty area!

Almost at the same moment, Shen Yulin accelerated and rushed forward to compete for a header.

And the right center back of Renmin Middle School who was blocking the goal immediately stepped up to post, and the two jumped up at the same time to fight for the header!

Shen Yulin, who was better at headers, got the ball.

I saw him nodding the ball in front and flicking it, then he pushed the football to the back.

The goalkeeper Lu Jiachen, who blocked Shen Yulin's shot angle in the front point, reacted quickly enough, and immediately stretched his left arm backwards, trying to lift the ball over the crossbar.

But the quality of Shen Yulin's header this time was very high, and it was quite tricky. Although Lu Jiachen's reaction was fast enough, he only touched the football, and couldn't lift the football directly off the crossbar.

After the football was supported by his hand for a while, it hit the crossbar and bounced back into the field!

Xia Xiaoyu, who was going straight to the middle, tried to make a follow-up shot, but he didn't expect that the football went to the back and just missed the football.

Another central defender from Renmin Middle School who came up to defend Xia Xiaoyu only had time to turn around to watch the football, but couldn't touch the ball.

He was relieved when he saw that there were still his teammates at the back point...

But before he could fully breathe out, a figure in a blue and yellow jersey suddenly appeared in his widened eyes, covering his teammates!

"Dongchuan Middle School's chance! Shen Yulin's header—ah!" the commentator first shouted and then exclaimed. In just two sentences, Dongchuan Middle School's offense went through a roller coaster-like ups and downs.

But before it was over, the commentator hadn't finished saying "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", a player from Dongchuan middle school suddenly appeared in front of the gate of Renmin middle school.

"Hu Lai!" The commentator only had time to call out the name of the person, and saw Hu Lai rushing in front of the right back of the Renmin Middle School, stretching out his foot to poke the falling football!

The football flew into the goal of Renmin Middle School without any suspense...
