I am the king of football

Chapter 69: Ups and Downs
"Qin Hu's shooting skills have improved again. This is a clever shot that he could never have made before~"

Zhan Jun in the commentary room was amazed at the replay of the goal scene on the screen. In everyone's impression, Qin Hu's goals were either headers into areas that the goalkeeper could not reach or often blasts into the goal, and other kinds of goals were quite rare.

Now, it seems that this young striker has never given up on improving his goal-scoring skills. In Zhan Jun's opinion, this is a very good phenomenon, because it means that Qin Hu has never been complacent.

"Before the age of 20, you can create unlimited possibilities. I am increasingly looking forward to what Qin Hu's future will be like."

On the court, Qin Hu had already run to the corner area and happily started dancing the Yangge with Fryatt, who assisted him. His teammates behind him also followed suit.

For a moment, if it weren't for the English shouts and singing coming from the Hull City stands, everyone would have wondered if this was some unprofessional yangko troupe performing.

Compared with the happy Hull City team, the Watford players on the other side were quite hit hard. The team's morale, which was high because of the goal at the beginning of the game, began to decline.

"Don't hesitate, we have no way out!"

However, their head coach Dyche was extremely excited. The coach, who had been informed by the club's top management before the game that he would be sacked if the team could not get out of the relegation zone as soon as possible, had reached the edge of the cliff and had no other choice or opportunity.

Hearing the powerful voice of their coach, the Watford players nodded in response, simply sorted themselves out and returned to their respective positions.

When the game started again, Hull City had an absolute upper hand in momentum. It took them very little time to reverse the score from being one goal behind. With the huge cheers from the fans in the stands, they directly withstood the even more frantic attack from Watford after the kick-off.

There was no further goal in the rest of the first half, and when the referee blew the whistle to end the half, Hull City went into the halftime break with a score of 2-1.

During the short break, Bruce did not give any new instructions to the players. Everyone rested quietly in their respective positions until the locker room door was finally knocked, then he gave a brief mobilization again.

“This is Hull City, our home. No one can take away victory from us. Fight, boys, and let the cheers resound forever!”

"Understood, Boss!"

Hull City, with high morale, appeared on the field again, while the Watford players opposite them showed another kind of high morale, a desperate momentum.

"Shhh!!!"

"Okay, welcome back, everyone. The game has started again, and the players of the two teams are fighting again."

As the ball began to rotate between the two sides' midfield and frontcourt, Zhan Jun's voice was heard again. Such a good game is often the key to attracting new fans, and he was unwilling to miss any of it.

"Watford's front three in this game are Sodder, Deeney and Chris. Deeney is a center forward with good heading ability and has scored three headers this season. The other two players are both speed players. Here they come!"

On the court, there is no need for Zhan Jun to introduce him any further, because the scene of Soder taking off with the ball at high speed on the wing has made everyone realize how great the speed advantage of this winger is.

Still on the left, poor Rosenior became the focus of Watford's attack in this game. Facing Soder who poked the ball behind him and then raced with him, he could only use a tactical foul to carry his opponent out of the sideline. The referee blew the foul whistle decisively and showed Rosenior the first yellow card of the game. At this time, the game had reached the 53rd minute.

"As a weak team in the league, set pieces are often a very important means of scoring. Watford is not bad in this regard. In the past dozen league games, they have scored five goals through set pieces."

As a professional commentator, Zhan Jun often prepares much more information before the game than what he comments on in each game. He gave a precise data when a group of Watford's offensive players began to gather inside and outside the Hull City penalty area.

"Shhh!!!"

Soon, with the referee's whistle, Watford midfielder Eustace kicked the ball out, a long pass straight into the Hull City penalty area.

When Deeney jumped high again, Maguire did not disappear. Relying on his tall height and top-notch air defense ability, he jumped in position and made the opponent completely miss the ball flying through the sky.

"The ball fell into the penalty area. Coulson quickly tried to clear it, but Yeters flew out to block it with his body. The ball hit him and bounced back into the small penalty area. For a moment, the Hull City penalty area was in chaos!"

"Shu~"

Among the many chaotic players, a foot suddenly appeared and the ball was suddenly poked towards the goal. Gulas, who was unable to react in time, quickly bent down to block it but ultimately failed.

"The ball goes in, the goal is scored by ~"

The ball rolled into the goal, but the scorer was difficult to identify for a moment. When Zhan Jun looked at the field with a frown, the director hesitated for a few seconds before focusing the camera on Watford's No. 32.

"It was No. 32 Hogg! The only defensive player in Watford's midfield, he poked the ball in the chaos, and the score was tied..."

The player who was least involved in the offense scored the equalizer. It can only be said that the ball is round and anything can happen.

The Watford players surrounded the scorer as soon as possible. After starting the second half under tremendous pressure, they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Four goals were scored before the 60th minute, and the two teams are back on the same starting line. This game was full of ups and downs."

The expressions of the two teams on the field were different. Hull City was not frustrated at all. Their defense had been more comprehensive since the start of the second half, so no player could be blamed for conceding a goal.

Since no one made a mistake, there is no need to worry about the next step. What they have to do now is simple - use another lead to completely defeat Watford's "pretended strength".

After the visiting team finished celebrating, the Hull City team, who had already stood still, waited for the whistle to start the game again. The ball was kicked out again, and their extremely calm eyes, as if looking at prey, made the opposing Watford players quite uncomfortable.

"Okay, Hull City started to control the ball in the midfield. They didn't rush forward immediately but waited for Watford to pull out their lineup."
