Chapter 45: Hit 1 punch

When Hu Lai pushed the football to the far end, many Catalan fans felt desperate in their hearts.
After all, they all know Hu Lai's shooting accuracy.
But then they saw their goalkeeper Cordlow as if he had opened up, jumped up, counterattacked in an extremely unfavorable situation, and rubbed the football with the tip of his finger!
That's it, the football changed the final flight trajectory and ran out of the goal...
Everyone's hearts fell back again.
But before their hearts fell back to their original positions, they were grabbed again!
Because they saw another striker from Leeds running at high speed.
At the same time, Catalonia right back Osque also returned to the goal. After being thrown away by Kamala, he did not chase Kamala, but went back to the penalty area very smartly.
His choice allows him to appear in the most critical place now, as long as he can clear the football before Laski...
There is hope again in the hearts of Catalonia fans.
Just when Osquay kicked out to play football, Laski was ahead of him and blocked the ball!
Osquay's kick can only be kicked on his leg.
Despite Osqua's interference, Laski still steadily kicked the football into the goal of Catalonia!
After the goal, the Pole staggered, lost his balance and fell to the ground. He still kept the posture of turning his head and looking towards the goal.
After confirming that the football was actually in the goal, he completely ignored the kick just now, struggled to get up from the ground, and ran to the corner flag area excitedly to celebrate his first goal in the Champions League!
"Laski!!! Laski!!! Dominic Laski!!!" Matthew Cox repeatedly shouted the name of the goalkeeper. "He appeared where he should appear! And gave a fatal blow! I didn't expect Leeds City to get the first goal in the second half! They evened the score! 2:2!"
Countless Leeds City fans cheered, cheered and hugged in the bars all over Leeds City.
On the TV, the players from Leeds also flocked to hold Laski in the center.
They slapped the Polish young man's shoulders, back and head, rubbed his hair, screamed and cheered, happy for Laski's Champions League first goal.
Although after joining Leeds, few goals have been scored, so far only two goals have been scored in the league.
However, as long as he can play in every game, Lasky has performed his career and strives to complete the tasks given to him by the head coach.
As a forward, his main task in Leeds is not to score goals, but to use his running position and foot skills to connect the team's offense and provide support and cover for Hu Lai.
He did all these well.
In addition, he never complains, works hard to do his job, and doesn’t just show himself on the pitch and ignore other teammates... The Polish personality makes him very popular in the team. No one thinks because he scores less. He is a parallel importer.
He is indeed not water, and the number of goals is not entirely his problem. Starting from the team's tactical status, his performance has passed.
This is different from Saidu.
Saidu has been named by the English media as one of the top ten parallel imports in the Premier League this season...
But as a forward, there is still a lot of pressure not to score.
So now that he finally scored a goal in the Champions League, his teammates are also very happy for Laski from the heart.
"OK!"
"Congratulations Dominic!"
Laski was also very happy, especially after seeing Hu Lai, he pointed at himself with his thumb, and said to Hu Lai happily: "I am running ahead of time this time!"
In order not to miss any scoring opportunities, Laski, who was originally behind Hulai, suddenly changed his running position when he saw Hulai penetrate into the blind zone behind Jimenez, and ran diagonally forward.
It was precisely because of this run that Jimenez was caught in a dilemma, and he finally made a wrong decision.
Camara's pass was rushed to the back point, but Lasky also continued to resolutely ran forward point, he thought he should be there. In this way, if there is a chance for a supplementary shot, he will not pass the goal.
And he was right.
Hu Lai's header was saved by Codlow, which just gave him a chance to make a supplement.
But if he didn't move ahead of time, then the ball would have been taken by Osquee, who returned to the goal.
Laski can't always appear where he should appear so quickly. When he first was in Leeds, he also had the embarrassing experience of missing scoring opportunities.
For example, in the league game against the Stan Park Rangers, Hulay took a shot after coming off the bench and caused the Stan Park Rangers goalkeeper Victor Lemos to drop. At that time, Laski was very close to the football's goal, but because he was not prepared, he could only watch the chance of scoring miss him.
Let his first Premier League goal abruptly postponed for almost two months before it arrived.
As a striker, when playing in Poland, Laski didn't pay much attention to catching opportunities in front of goal. He was good at scoring through his own dribbling and technique to pass the defensive player, and then take a shot.
If you enter, you will enter, and he won't make a mistake if you don't enter.
It's like a hammer sale.
After coming to Leeds, the Premier League defender caused him a lot of resistance. His tried and tested method of scoring in Poland is not very effective in the Premier League. In the face of Premier League-level defense, it is not easy for him to ensure that possession of the ball is not lost. He has no chance to score a goal at all. Even the shot will be greatly misaligned because of the opponent's defensive interference.
Laski is not a stupid stupid who doesn't know how to work, he knows that his own set is becoming more and more difficult to use in the Premier League, so when training with Hu Lai, he began to learn from the Premier League golden boot intentionally or unintentionally.
In the game, predict where the football will fall and where it will go next, think proactively instead of passively waiting for the ball.
His efforts paid off, and he also had this Champions League first goal!
When Hu Lai heard Laski's words, he laughed and patted his shoulder vigorously: "Come on! Keep working hard!"

Until the Leeds City players ended their celebrations and returned to their own half, the talent on the Catalan side recovered from the incredible.
As Lasky ran towards the football, boos sounded like thunder over the Sagrada Familia Stadium, but it did not stop Leeds City from equalizing the score.
The imposing Jimenez saw Laski kick the football towards the goal after landing. He couldn't help but open his mouth wide, unable to believe what he saw with his eyes.
At the same time, there was a feeling of self-blame in his heart-this loss came from his header error!
Codlow, lying on the ground, slammed a punch against the turf.
As a goalkeeper, he has done his best in this defense. It is not easy for him to touch the football and get the ball out of the situation with continuous conversion of the center of gravity.
But his outstanding performance failed to save his goal...
This makes him the goalkeeper particularly unwilling.
I won't say anything if I make a mistake. But I did a good job in this defense... I still lost the ball!
Damn it!
At halftime, all the Catalan United players believed that it would be good for them to play a counterattack in the second half.
After all, Catalonia is known for offensively, and the team that played against them at the Sagrada Familia is basically nothing good.
How can I think that in the second half of the attack, it was not them that advanced the ball, but Leeds, who was weaker than them!
Jose Benal was very dissatisfied with Jiménez’s fall from the sidelines. He repeatedly asked his assistant coach: "How can he miss it?"
The assistant coach was unable to give an answer, and it was not time to care about this issue. He asked Benal: "Does any adjustments need to be made?"
Benal took a deep breath and calmed himself down from his anger: "No, don't make any adjustments, continue to attack!"
He believes that this loss was due to a mistake in the team's defense. It is not surprising that Leeds City's counterattack can reach the 30-meter area, but Jimenez's loss is really terrible.
If he doesn't risk the top, Hu Lai will never have the chance to head the goal, and Laski will not have the possibility of a supplementary shot.
So this loss is not a matter of the team's tactical strategy, it is purely a matter of the player's personal performance.
That being the case, of course there is no need to adjust the tactics, let the team continue to attack.
The ball now lost, rely on a strong offense to win it back!

"Aha! We bet right!" Clark slapped happily, and Laski equalized the score to give him confidence.
It fully shows that Leeds City's offensive strength is not weak, and they are fully capable of confronting them at the Catalan United's home court.
He knows that many teams have nothing to do with Catalonia in this stadium, but he doesn't care.
Anyway, Leeds City is now on this path. Isn't it possible to wait for death if you don't attack?
Switching to a general coach, you may be satisfied with the result of the 2:2 away game with Cathay United. After the equalizer, he will choose the strategy of shrinking the defense in time, first stabilize the defense, and withstand the rapid counterattack of Cathay United.
Clark is not an "average coach".
So when the Leeds City players finished celebrating and returned to their own half, they all received the latest instructions from the boss to them from the sidelines:
Continue to attack.
No one was surprised by this.
Even if they turn their heads and find that the boss asks them to put a bus at the door, then they will think whether the boss has been kidnapped...
Continue to attack is the right way!
After two seasons of training by Clark, this team has become accustomed to accepting his football style and philosophy.
When encountering difficulties, the first thing you think about is how to improve your offensive efficiency and how to score more goals, not how to withstand the opponent's fierce attack...
Football is essentially a sport that scores more goals with the opponent, so is it wrong to pursue offense?
Is it wrong?
This goal greatly boosted the morale and confidence of the team's players and reminded them of what the boss said during the intermission.
The boss is right.
Our Premier League champions and Champions League seed qualifications are all based on our strengths.
We scored two goals from Catalonia in this game, so why can't we continue to attack?
Attack, Leeds!
Keep attacking!
Ten Leeds City players went to their place after running through the center line ~EbookFREE.me~.
But each of them had a confident light in their eyes.
Leeds like a hillbilly, this is their first Champions League season.
This is a ring that they didn't even dare to think about before. When they stood up, they were beaten miserably by traditional tycoons such as Catalan United and Vesuvius.
It's just that after getting through the opponent's punches and kicks, even though he has been beaten to the edge of the ring, he may fall at any time. This is when they left their distracting thoughts and threw their punches forward desperately, but unexpectedly discovered that their invincible opponent was actually shaken by this punch!
So we really have the ability to play against the giants of the European continent in the top European football arena.
Every Leeds City player thinks so and feels enthusiastic.
