Chapter 72: Where is your Hulai?

"Madrid Pirates counterattack... Hu! He saved the ball! He passed Bowman's head! He... a barb?! He took a barb shot! God! The goal is scored! The goal is scored! Unbelievable! Hu scored a goal with a golden hook at such a distance!!"
The highlights of this round of UEFA Champions League group matches are being shown on TV.
The hoarse commentary comes from British commentator Matthew Cox.
In the "White Rose" bar, everyone looked up at the goal screen on the TV.
Someone said with emotion: "I don't know if it is my illusion. I always feel that Hu has become a phenomenal player in Europe after he went to Madrid. We can always see his news and news in the media after every shortfall..."
Someone retorted him: "It's just because he was in Leeds before and we can see his news every day, so I don't think there is anything. You think about the pirate fans now, they can also see his news every day."
"But in any case, Hu is indeed more famous than before. After all, pirates are the real wealthy..."
"I don't care about the pirates, I really miss Hu now..."
Everyone sighed together when they were affected by such a sentence.
In another UEFA Champions League group match held at the same time yesterday, the same group of Leeds City challenged Kiev on an away game, but was tied 0:0 by their opponents.
Failed to score, and failed to take all three points.
In fact, after the start of the new season, Leeds City ran into trouble.
Hu Lai's departure has a huge impact on the team.
Leeds City’s tactics are mainly offensive. All their previous achievements have been based on scoring goals.
Because they have the ability to score goals, they can threaten their opponents and gain the initiative in the game.
But if they can't score, the threat level will plummet.
Opponents will think: Since you can't threaten my goal, your offensive football is just to free the backcourt for us to counterattack.
So the original advantage of Leeds City has become the current disadvantage.
When offensive football is no longer fierce, the shortcomings of their poor defense will be infinitely magnified.
The Premier League played four rounds in the new season, and Leeds drew and lost two, and have yet to win a game.
Only two points in the 17th place, the situation is not good.
Scored four goals, but conceded eleven goals.
Such performance naturally cannot satisfy the fans, and everyone misses Hu Lai even more because of this.
In fact, this season Leeds still pays more attention to defense than before. They also hired coaches who are good at defense to train and tune the team's defensive ability.
However, the change of tactics is not a matter of overnight. Players are used to the previous offensive football, and it is not easy to adapt to the new football of the post-Hulai era.
After watching Huley leave Leeds, he went to the Madrid Pirates and scored every game. He scored nine goals in five games, which was unstoppable.
The sourness in the hearts of Leeds City fans...
Sour and uncomfortable.
※※※
The sour and uncomfortable also include Zhou Zijing.
At this moment, he is doing a simple warm-up activity in the warm-up area beside the Flanders stadium.
But this does not mean that he is going to play for the team.
As a substitute, it is impossible to be called to warm up until the time to play. After all, not every time you make a substitution, you will be given a few minutes to warm up before you play.
Sometimes it is because of accidents such as player injuries, or it may be that the head coach suddenly decides to change. At that time, there will not be enough time to wait for you to warm up slowly, but you need to come and fight when you come.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the body of the substitute players is always ready to play, the players on the bench are often called to the sidelines to warm up in batches.
At this moment, Zhou Zijing and some of his teammates were warming up on the sidelines.
Just a regular warm-up does not mean that he will be sent on the court.
It is normal to return to the bench to watch the game after warming up for a while.
In fact, being able to warm up on the sidelines is already a good treatment for Zhou Zijing.
You know that throughout August, he couldn't even make the big squad in Leeds, and he was not eligible to come to the sidelines to warm up!
Now at least he can watch the game at the closest distance, which is more VIP than the VIP box upstairs.
But Zhou Zijing doesn't want this VIP treatment!
He wants to go further!
It has been two months since he came to Leeds in mid-July. Although he has played in some insignificant warm-up matches, in the official game, he has not played for Leeds in one minute.
After playing the national team game, perhaps because he scored in the national team game, he was finally selected into the big list.
But whether it was the last away game against the Highlanders in the Premier League or the last away game against Kiev in the Champions League.
Although he was selected on the big squad, he stayed on the bench for ninety minutes and was not able to play.
In the two games, Leeds first shook hands with the Highlanders 1:1, and then drew 0:0 with Kiev.
As a center forward, Zhou Zijing can only be a spectator off the court, but he can't help the team score a goal. He is very aggrieved.
With this performance, what makes Leeds fans forget Hulay?
Leeds City fans miss Hu Lai very much now!
Because the invincible city of Leeds unexpectedly suffered "weakness." Valley
In previous games, head coach Clark tried a variety of striker combinations.
But no matter what the combination is, the effect is not very understandable.
Laski performed well last season, but also because of Hu Lai around him. Hulai helped him attract a lot of defensive firepower, and his pressure was much less.
Now that Huley is gone, the Poles have to face most of the attention from the opponent's defenses alone.
The Poles have not been able to seize every rare offensive opportunity into a goal like Hulay did. This has led to the dangerous situation of Leeds often being unable to attack in the offense and then being counterattacked by the opponent.
Now in this Leeds home game against the London Mars, Clark chose to let Lorenzo start and partner with Laski.
He wants to use high center Lorenzo's header ability to create opportunities for Laski.
However, the physical fitness and ability of the Italian high center, who has come to the last season of his career, have obviously declined. Although he is still conscientious in training, he still can't make up the gap in his age.
He didn't get much advantage in the fight against the guard of Mars in London.
In the first half, Leeds City still maintained a certain advantage in the cheering of the home fans.
But when they failed to score a goal in the first half, Leeds' offensive came to an end.
After the start of the second half, the momentum of the London Mars counterattack became more and more fierce, and now it is the turn of Leeds City's defense line to be precarious.
And all this, Zhou Zijing can only watch it off the court.
Let the Leeds fans forget Hulay?
It now appears to be an "impossible task."
Just a few minutes ago, the fans of Leeds City sang the "Song of Hu" in the stands.
This song should have been sung after Hu Lai scored. But as Hulai moved away, Leeds fans seemed to have lost the opportunity to sing this song.
Today, I suddenly sang in this game, what it means, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts.
The fans of Leeds City miss Hulay.
Especially in this situation, his team's offense was weak, but Hulay scored twice in the previous Champions League group stage, and the second goal was a wonderful super long-range barb goal...
All Europe is discussing Hulai’s goal, and all Europe is praising that goal.
Compared with such a person, he is an unknown person who has never played in Leeds.
He thought that he was the only one living in the shadow of Hulai, but now he discovered that the entire city of Leeds was actually under the shadow of Hulai...
Still yelling to defeat him?
Zhou Zijing thought it was a little ridiculous.
Let alone Hu Lai, he can't even match Luo Kai.
Luo Kai is now starting to play in Tramed, even though he came off the bench... but that is also a good sign.
What about yourself?
Didn't even turn his head!
It's more popular than people!
When will the era that belongs to my Zhou Zijing come!
Or... can it come?
※※※
Just as Zhou Zijing was upset ~EbookFREE.me~ the situation changed suddenly.
London Mars, who had always had the advantage before, broke through Leeds's defense line through a quick counterattack, and finally their young Australian forward Benjamin Torio scored!
Leeds are behind at home!
While the Leeds City fans were still regretting and painful for losing the ball, London Mars goalkeeper Benjamin Torio made an unexpected move...
He ran to the corner flag area, then jumped up, turned one hundred and eighty degrees in the air, swinging his arms back when he landed!
Although it is not very standard, everyone can see that this is Hu Lai's iconic celebration!
Scored a goal from Leeds City at the home court of Leeds City, and then made the iconic celebration of Leeds City's legendary players...
What does it mean?
This is not over yet. After scoring a goal, Torio made a gesture of looking at the stands in Leeds City:
Where is your Hulai?
The Flanders Stadium directly exploded.
The Boo Storm takes shape in an instant!
The Leeds City players on the court were still annoyed by the loss of the ball, with their heads in their hands in pain. After seeing Torio's celebration, his face instantly changed, and he ran angered to find the trouble of the other party.
The other players of Mars in London rushed over to protect their teammates.
The two sides pushed and shoved together like this!
The boos in the stands were mixed with the shouts of Leeds City fans.
Hearing hiss all over the sky and watching the scene where the players from both sides clamored at each other, Zhou Zijing was silly.
Fuck, what's the situation? !
