Xie Lan, who was sitting on the sofa playing with her mobile phone, suddenly raised her head and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. Then she put down her mobile phone, picked up the TV remote control, and turned on the TV.

At the same time, she shouted in the direction of the bedroom: "Lao Hu, we're here to watch the game!"

"What game are you watching? The match between Leeds City and Abion kicks off at 11pm..." Hu Lixin's voice came from inside.

"Let's watch the game between Stan Park Rangers and Battleship Port first!"

"What's so interesting about their game?" Although Hu Lixin said this, he still walked out.

"Know your opponent's latest moves! Come on!" Xie Lan patted the sofa cushion next to him, making a banging sound.

"You know, can't you just wait until the end of the game to know the result?" Hu Lixin muttered, but he still walked over and sat down.

"There is no sense of ritual. You need to have a sense of ritual when you live your life, and you also need to have it when watching football."

"What does this have to do with the sense of ritual?" Hu Lixin frowned and looked at the TV screen.

In the meantime, a live signal from Stan Park Stadium appeared, and players from both sides were about to appear.

Stan Park Rangers captain Harry Bernard stood at the front of the team, wearing the captain's armband, holding the team flag in his hand, and holding the ball boy in the other hand.

The little caddy he was holding was looking up at Bernard slightly, his eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that he was actually holding hands with the Stan Park Rangers flag.

Perhaps sensing the gaze of the caddy next to him, Bernard lowered his head and gave him a smile.

The little caddy almost jumped up with joy after receiving the response.

At this moment, the team started to move, and players from both sides appeared!

His wife Xie Lan was still talking excitedly beside him: "After watching this, our son's game will be next... Tonight is really a football feast!"

It wouldn't be a football feast if Stan Park Rangers won...

Hu Lixin turned his head and glanced at his excited wife, but did not dare to say these words from his heart.

When Hulay and Charlie Porter knocked on the door of Williams and Kamara's room, they found that the game was being played live on the TV screen in the room.

"Hey, are you still watching the game? We'll be leaving soon." Porter shouted when he saw this.

"What's the score?" Hu Lai glanced at the screen and found that the score above was still 0:0.

After the home game between Stan Park Rangers and Warship Harbor, it was immediately followed by the game between Leeds City and Abion. However, because Leeds City was playing at home, they lived directly in the dormitories at the training base next to the stadium and did not need to

For example, when playing away games, they have to take a bus from the hotel to the stadium. So they can leave for the stadium later.

This gives everyone the opportunity to watch Stan Park Rangers and Battleship Harbor games.

Not only Williams and Kamara, but also many other Leeds City players are paying attention to this game.

It's not just the players, it's also the coaches at Leeds City.

After Hu Lai and Charlie came in, they sat down on the bed and watched the game together.

Thirty-five minutes into the first half, the live broadcast showed Stan Park Rangers attacking.

However, when their attack reached the penalty area of ​​​​Douwankang, they were stopped by Timo Branden, the center back of dwarfship.

Brandon then handed the ball to right back Mark Murphy who quickly advanced down the wing.

The warship port launches a quick counterattack!

"Eh?" The four people in front of the TV, after being stunned for the first time, all shouted: "What a chance!"

I saw a standard quick counterattack from Battleship Port. After two passes, the football passed the center line and entered the Stan Park Rangers half!

Although Bernard defended to the wing and took the risk of getting a card for a foul, he was unable to stop the attack of Warship Port.

After the referee made a gesture that was favorable for the offense, he followed the attack of the warship port and ran forward.

Soon the football hit the Stan Park Rangers penalty area.

After receiving a pass from his teammate, Warship Port's American forward Carl Lambert made a change of pace and swung away from Stan Park Rangers defender Eric Jacobs, who came up to block him, and then hit the line in the penalty area.

Take a shot!

The football flew to the lower right corner against the turf!

Although Stan Park Rangers goalkeeper Victor Lemos tried his best to dive, he was still out of reach of Lambert's very tricky shot...

"pretty!!!"

Before Cox could say anything, the four Leeds City players in front of the TV took the lead in raising their arms and shouting.

At the same time, they also heard cheers coming from other rooms in the dormitory building!

Obviously, the four of them are not the only ones paying attention to this game!

"Lambert shot a great goal!! Beautiful!! Warships leads Stan Park Rangers 1:0 in the away game! Great!!"

"Great!" Xie Lan cheered along with the commentator He Feng on the TV.

Why does she want to watch Stan Park Rangers and Battleship Harbor match?

This is the moment you have been waiting for!

Warship Harbor has already scored a goal. It would be best if they can beat Stan Park Rangers away from home.

But even if you can't win, a draw will do.

It's better to score first than Stan Park Rangers, right?

And maybe this ball from Battleship Port can disrupt the Stan Park Rangers' plan and make the Stan Park Rangers players panic?

Just like the performance of Stan Park Rangers players in the last round of the league after knowing that Leeds City defeated Boscombe 3:1, they were sleepwalking on the pitch!

Hu Lixin, who was sitting next to Xie Lan, had obviously thought of these possibilities, so he couldn't help but slap him next to him.

Upon seeing this, Xie Lan proudly pointed at the TV screen and asked her husband: "Do you think watching this game is useful? Can knowing the result after the game be the same experience as watching the live broadcast?"

Hu Lixin nodded: "Yes, yes, you are right..."

Xie Lan on the sofa straightened her back, put her hands on her hips, and looked up to the sky laughing.

Commentator Yan Kang on the TV was analyzing for the audience: "Stan Park Rangers wanted to win this game too much. They pressed out to attack from the beginning of the game. It was a bit too risky to play this way... But in Leeds City, they gave

Faced with the pressure, even Stan Park Rangers can't bear it. As long as they think that they are only one point ahead of Leeds City, the players of Stan Park Rangers may not be able to calm down... The warship port is well used.

Stan Park Rangers' weakness of eagerness for success and counterattacking against their offense really paid off towards the end of the first half!"

In front of the home team's coaching bench, Stan Park Rangers head coach Scott Brooks, after the initial anger, turned to assistant coach Brown and said: "Let Palacio take the time to warm up. I will let him change clothes together at halftime."

room."

Brown knew that Brooks was going to replace Palacio, who had just returned from injury, at halftime in order to strengthen the team's offensive firepower.

In fact, Palacio, who had just recovered from injury, did not score very well in the pre-match physical examination, so Brooks did not put him on the list.

But the situation is critical now, and Brooks can't care about that. Palacio must be sent in to try to equalize the score quickly. The longer Warship Harbor is allowed to lead, the more disadvantageous it will be to Stan Park Rangers.

Brown also knew the seriousness of the situation and had no nonsense. He turned around and ran to the bench, called Palacio up from his chair and asked him to warm up.

The shouts at Stan Park Stadium were a little messy, and Palacio's footsteps running to the warm-up area were also a little messy...

"Let's go, let's go!"

Facing the TV screen that was playing an advertisement, Hu Lai stood up and tugged on his pants that were stuck to his buttocks due to sweat, and then said to the three people in the room.

"What a pity! Why didn't Lambert score the kick just now?" Williams said regretfully.

"That's right, one goal is enough. No wonder a striker like this can't even score twenty goals in a season!" Charlie Potter spat towards the TV screen.

Carl Lambert has scored a total of 17 goals in the Premier League this season and is already the top scorer of the Battleship Port team. It is no wonder that Battleship Port is ranked so low in the Premier League this season...

What they were talking about was the attack at the end of the first half. Warship Harbor once again threatened Stan Park Rangers' goal. However, Lambert's shot in the end was weak. It was not so much a shot as a return.

Pass to the goalkeeper.

"Hu." Kamara stopped Hu Lai who was about to leave, "This ball...if it were you, would it go in?"

He asked Hu Lai in English.

Hu Lai, who was stopped, looked back at him with a smile on his face: "Look at what you said... Of course."

Then he urged the three people again: "Are you leaving? We will be late by then, and the boss will let us all sit on the bench together!"

The three people hurriedly followed Hu Lai's figure, walked out of the dormitory room, and walked towards the sky corridor.

When Leeds City players started to warm up, Flanders Stadium was already full of Leeds City fans.

At such a critical moment, they all want to witness history.

Before their own team's game has started, they are all using the radio to learn about the situation of another game.

Then they heard the news of Stan Park Rangers' equalizer.
