Genius remembers this site address in one second: []https://fastest update! No ads!

When Hu Lai made his first shot, Payson didn’t dare to bet whether Hu Lai was a fake move, he could only do his best to stop it.

The following facts proved that Hu Lai was indeed a fake move.

But fortunately, Tom Walker’s reaction was fast enough to get up from the ground while Hu Lai got rid of Payson.

Such a quick second reaction deserves to be the main goalkeeper of the England national team.

Facing Hu Lai who was swinging his legs to shoot, he threw out without hesitation.

No goalkeeper would dare to bet that Hu Lai would not shoot at this time.

As a pure shooter with a hefty goal, what can Hu Lai do if he doesn’t shoot?

And Hu Lai proved that in addition to shooting, he can pass the ball…

When Volcker, who made a big jump, saw Hu Lai assign the football to Laski, his heart collapsed: You still pass the ball at this time! ? Is there any mistake? This is a duel between me and you, you pass a fart!

The following Walker could only lie on the ground and turned his head desperately watching Lasky drew the football into the empty goal… The difficulty of this ball is almost non-existent for a qualified professional player!

Then he hammered the turf in front of him angrily.

It’s not just Tramed’s goalkeeper Walker who was shaken. In fact, almost everyone did not expect that Hulay would choose to pass the ball in such a situation…

This is not simply because Hu Lai is a player with very, very few assists, but also because Hu Lai finally got rid of Payson before and succeeded in one-on-one with the goalkeeper. Under this premise, anyone who is familiar with Hu Lai Everyone knows that he will never pass the football out again. Regardless of whether the ball can be scored or not, it must be him to end the attack.

But who ever thought that there was something wrong with Hu Lai today.

Laski’s first goal was his assist, and now he still chooses to pass the football even one-on-one with goalkeeper Walker.

The narrator He Feng is a little bit unable to believe what he saw with his eyes: “Hu Lai actually passed the football to Laski… Was he kidnapped by an alien? This ball he…impossible. Passed it!”

Even if Walker reacted quickly in the second, he has blocked most of his shooting angles, but with Hulai’s ability, there is always a chance to score.

Moreover, in terms of Hulai’s playing style, it is reasonable to pass the football to Laski when his chances are not good.

But passing the ball when he and the goalkeeper are one-on-one… It’s really surprising.

Yan Kang shook his hand and smiled: “Haha, He Feng! Perhaps it is because even bystanders like us didn’t expect Hu Lai to pass the ball, so his hit was deadly enough. Tramed was in the penalty area. Li’s defense was all attracted by Hulay, especially after he got rid of Payson…Under such circumstances, he unexpectedly chose to pass the ball, creating a simple scoring for Laski. Opportunity… What do we always say about’nanny assists’ and what do we mean by’nanny assists’? That’s it!”

He Feng also recalled from the initial shock, and then smiled: “Yes, Yan Kang. Hu Lai successfully deceived the world this time. But…why was Lasky not deceived?”

“Speaking of this… After winning the game against Catalonia, Laski accepted an interview with Polish media. He said in the interview that playing next to Hulay taught him a lot. And this kind of early running The way of emptying is very similar to Hu Lai’s style. I think maybe this is what Lasky learned from Hu Lai, right?”

※※※

Hu Lai did deceive the world.

Not only was He Feng swayed by him when he was explaining, the narrators from all over the world spoke their native languages ​​when explaining Hu Lai’s shot, and there was a shocking pause and turn.

Yan Kang’s analysis makes sense. The Premier League Golden Boot, who scored 32 Premier League goals in a single season, in almost everyone’s impression, should be the person who will never give up the chance of scoring when facing the goalkeeper.

Even to put it harder, Hu Lai’s ability to become a double golden boot in the Premier League and the World Cup has a lot to do with his “selfishness” in front of the goal.

As a forward, he is just performing his duties, but as a player, he is indeed a bit selfish in the eyes of outsiders.

The Spanish TV commentator asked about the slow-motion replay of the goal: “Is Hu not confident that he will score a goal one-on-one with Walker? Obviously impossible… So why did he choose to pass the football? , Instead of shooting himself? He got rid of Payson and knocked Walker down, doing everything he needed to do. It stands to reason that this is the best chance to score…”

Carlos Toledo, who was watching the Premier League highlight in the hotel room, turned his head and asked his roommate Zhang Qinghuan: “Zhang, why did Hu pass the ball? Doesn’t he want to score?”

Zhang Qinghuan shrugged: “Why? He might just want to pass the ball at that time.”

The Argentine forward sighed and shook his head: “Instead, I would never give up shooting in front of such an opportunity. Even if I can’t get in, I’ll make a kick… I think Hu is the kind to make sure that his scoring is the top priority. The striker!”

In front of Zhang Qinghuan, he expressed the “Hu Lai selfish” view more euphemistically.

Of course, this does not mean that he is blaming Hu Lai. On the contrary, the same striker, he very much agrees and recognizes Hu Lai’s handling of those opportunities in front of goal. In his view, Carlos Torado, only forwards who are not confident enough in their shooting skills will pass the football under such circumstances.

Zhang Qinghuan smiled: “I am not surprised by Hu’s pass. Do you know why, Carlos?”

“Why?”

“Because he used to do exactly the same thing as today’s ball. And the chances were better than this ball. He was facing the goalkeeper single-handedly at the time, and no one around him interfered…”

Zhang Qinghuan told his roommate about the ball he used to break the old club’s capital Tenglong in Gongti.

Toledo was dumbfounded.

“…God, I can’t imagine what it looks like in my mind. When facing the goalkeeper single-handedly, I suddenly knocked the football back with my heel…”

“Yeah. If I hadn’t reacted quickly enough at the beginning, his assist would have been wasted.” Zhang Qinghuan recalled the past, with a little sigh in his tone.

That was more than two years ago.

Zhang Qinghuan quickly withdrew from the nostalgia and said to Torado: “So, I think people have a lot of misunderstandings about Hu. He is not a striker who only knows shooting. Of course I am not saying what he should be like… In fact, it is difficult to say clearly what kind of player he should be. He does whatever he wants, often without any motivation or reason. For example, he may just want to pass the ball, so he will pass it next time. If a teammate has a better chance than him, but he will also choose to shoot himself, it is because he wants to shoot.”

Toledo thoughtfully after hearing the words: “This will make it more difficult for opponents to guess his true intentions… As expected, he is a person who can get the Premier League Golden Boots and the World Cup Golden Boots…”

When Zhang Qinghuan heard him say this, he knew that he had misunderstood: “No… forget it, you can think so…”

He didn’t bother to explain, anyway, it was really difficult for that kid to frame him with certain definitions.

Every time you think what he should be like, he will definitely get a face punch…

So don’t say anything, just keep watching the game.

“This…”

Cohen Melburne was dumbfounded and didn’t know what to say in front of this loss.

Kevin Locke standing next to him is not much better than him.

They really couldn’t understand why Hu Lai passed the ball, why did he pass the ball?

He is the golden boot of the league!

Why should such an opportunity spread? !

In an embarrassing silence, Locke suddenly asked: “How many assists did Hu make last season?”

Melburnie frowned and searched his memory: “It seems… three times.”

“Damn it!” Locke couldn’t help cursing swearing.

It’s not to blame for him to be gaffe. Whoever puts this matter on him will be fragrant. Hu Lai had a total of three assists in the league last season. He assisted twice in one game today, accounting for three of his total assists last season. Two out of two!

Moreover, his two assists today were passed to Laski. The Polish striker, who had been mediocre in the previous league, scored twice with Hulay’s assists, which is outrageous!

※※※

When Locke next door was depressed by Hulay’s abnormal performance, in front of the visiting team’s coaching bench, the Leeds City coaches hugged and cheered to celebrate their second lead.

They are not surprised that Hu Lai will assist Lasky twice today because they know why.

“As of now, Lasky has scored six goals in all competitions! It is still 14 short of the goal you set him…” Randy was excited and reminded Clark to prepare his wallet.

Clark grinned: “I knew I had made an agreement with him at the beginning of the season, so maybe we can still qualify from the Champions League group stage…”

“Tony, do you want to think about it. It is a tradition for the team to go to the’Red Pepper’ dinner after each season?” Randy teased him.

Clark shook his head firmly: “No, Sam. If I make this a traditional thing, then it loses the meaning of motivation. The players will think that no matter how we play this season, we can go to’Red Pepper’ at the end. , Then how can we see this scene in the game?”

He pointed to the players who hugged Laski.

Randyll smiled: “Okay. As long as Laski can successfully score 20 goals this season, they can go to the “Red Pepper” once. What about next season?”

“Why do we have to think about things that are so far next season? We’ll talk about it later!”

※※※

The Leeds City players gathered around Laski to end the celebration and ran back to their own half.

On the way, they congratulated Laski:

“Come on, Dominic! You are still 14 goals away from the famous Leeds restaurant’Red Pepper’!”

Lasky, who was not very interested in Chinese food, suddenly became a little curious when everyone was so happy…

What is the magic of the restaurant that makes the teammates so excited?

He asked Lorenzo, the captain of the team: “Captain, is the’Red Pepper’ delicious? How many Michelin stars is it?”

“There is no star rating, Dominic. That is actually an ordinary Chinese restaurant.”

“Then why everyone…” Lasky looked at the back of his teammates and stopped talking.

Lorenzo smiled and said, “Do you think everyone is going for the meal?”

Lasky was strange: “Isn’t it?”

“Heh…” Lorenzo smiled and shook his head. “To say it is delicious, we have all eaten in many restaurants, including Michelin stars. The taste of’red pepper’ is not outstanding in those Michelin restaurants. Besides. Chinese food is really unhealthy for professional players… But everyone goes to’Red Chili’ after the end of each season, but it is not really for the Chinese food there. We just regard going to’Red Chili’ as a lucky ceremony .”

“Lucky ceremony?” Lasky frowned, not quite understanding.

“Have you heard that because of Hu, the boss asked our team to go to’Red Pepper’ twice?”

Laski nodded.

“The reason why Hu was invited twice was because Hu scored more than five goals in the league and helped the team successfully relegation. The other time was because Hu won the league golden boots and helped the team win the league championship… Did you see anything?”

Laskii thought about it ~www.wuxiax.com~ and suddenly realized: “Every time we go to’Red Pepper’, it means that we have achieved good results. Either it is a success in relegation or a championship.”

“Yes, that’s right. So everyone thinks that if we can go to’Red Pepper’ after the season, it means that we will definitely achieve good results this season. On the surface it seems that everyone wants to go to’Red Pepper’ Eating, but in fact it is just a disguised pursuit of good results. In addition, everyone has this kind of vision: as long as we go to’Red Pepper’, maybe we will get good results next season?”

Laski finally understood why his teammates were so excited when they talked about “Red Pepper”, but he had a new question: “But… this season we were out of the Champions League and the league fell to ten. What good results can you achieve?”

This time captain Lorenzo shook his head and did not give an answer, because even he didn’t know what the team could achieve.

He patted Lasky on the shoulder: “Don’t think so much, just run towards your goal and work hard.”
