I am the king of football

Chapter 127: The Moment of Revelation
Everything happened very quickly. Kane's pass was just right, and Qin Hu's sprinting speed was too fast for the slow Murphy to catch up. When Qin Hu got the ball first, many people already knew what would happen next.

"The goalkeeper chose to attack, but Qin Hu didn't shoot blindly. He just dribbled past the goalkeeper!"

Qin Hu, who had long gotten rid of his habit of panicking when seeing people and had honed his skills to perfection, once again performed a great trick of dribbling past the goalkeeper.

As he faced the empty goal with the ball, thousands of Hull City fans who had traveled with the team had already started singing loudly.

"Oh oh oh~, we are the invincible Hull City. We have the tiger from the East! Qin! Qin! Qin!"

"Shu~"

Accompanied by the singing, Qin Hu easily pushed the ball into the goal. After scoring the goal, he smiled and turned around to hug Kane and Colen who were running towards him.

At this moment, although he was in the opponent's home penalty area, the momentum that Qin Hu displayed as "no one else can do it better than him" had already convinced the entire stadium.

"There is a type of player whose existence is to break the routine on the court. The more evenly matched the two teams are, the more important their existence becomes."

Zhan Jun sat in the commentary room and evaluated Qin Hu's performance word by word. In several consecutive league games, Qin Hu has fully demonstrated his dominance on the court.

"We generally call this kind of player a key player. He breaks the rules and does what ordinary people cannot do. He never wastes opportunities and helps the team break through the opponent's goal time and time again. Qin Hu has done all of this."

There is no doubt that Qin Hu is already the top star of Hull City.

1-0, Hull City took the lead away from home. The balance that Birmingham team worked hard to maintain was instantly wiped out after Hull City got a direct attack opportunity.

As the game started again, there was little time left in the first half. At the signal of coach Hughton, Birmingham played quite conservatively after the kick-off, which made it almost impossible for Hull City to find any good opportunities.

Therefore, when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the score of the game did not change.

"1-0, Hull City temporarily took the lead at halftime. Both teams played very steadily. It seems that the outcome of this game will be decided in the second half."

As Zhan Jun's words rang out, the two teams disappeared into the player tunnel and the fans took a short break.

"Everyone did well in the first half. Keep it up. Don't let the opponent lead the rhythm. Hold the defense and stabilize the midfield. Then continue to defeat them through counterattacks."

Bruce made a very simple summary and then signaled the players to continue to maintain their form. In his opinion, the team almost perfectly executed their tactics in the first half.

"We have a one-goal advantage, so don't panic. They will definitely be the first to get restless in the second half."

"Understand coach!"

Unlike Bruce's calmness in his own locker room, in the home team's locker room at this moment, Hughton was ravaging his players with a hair dryer storm.

"We obviously had more chances, why didn't we seize them! This is our home court, do you want to humiliate yourself in front of your own fans?"

Standing in front of the players with his hands and feet dancing, Hughton, who is highly expected by the club, is under great pressure this season. He signed a bet agreement with Birmingham's top management on promotion to the Premier League. In his opinion, the team must return to the top league at all costs.

"Carl! Murphy! Pay attention to your backs. The opponent has discovered your weakness. Don't give them any more chances. Lock their attack outside the penalty area and don't give Qin Chong time to get up."

"Okay, coach." "And the forwards, I want to see your performance in the second half!"

"Okay, okay coach!"

Hughton's eyes swept over the two strikers in this game like lightning. He was very dissatisfied with their performance. If they failed to make any progress in the second half, he would never be stingy with his substitutions.

Seeing their coach so serious, both Adam Rooney and Marlon King tensed up. Recalling Hull City's defense in the first half of the game, they were quite troubled.

"This is our home court. We must not end this game in disgrace. Defeat our opponents, improve our rankings, and let me see your passion!!!"

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

After the locker room doors of both teams were knocked, both sides returned to the court through the player tunnel again. When they met in the tunnel, both teams could be described as murderous.

"Okay, the second half of the game has begun. Qin Hu kicked the ball first. They were one goal ahead and behaved very calmly. They didn't rush in full force right away."

Just as Bruce said, it was definitely not Hull City who were anxious. The players controlled the ball leisurely. Their tight positioning and tacit cooperation made them feel like fish in water.

Seeing that the opponent did not give them any chances, Birmingham naturally could not stay in their own half all the time. They began to press forward as a whole from midfield.

The two sides once again entangled in the midfield of the two teams, with the ball going back and forth. After thirty minutes, the possession rate was 50-50.

At this point, the time had come to more than seventy minutes, and Birmingham's two forwards ultimately failed to meet the expectations of their coach. Due to the close defense of Maguire and Chester, their performance was not even as good as in the first half.

In the 19th minute of the game, the anxious Hughton made a substitution. Adam Rooney and Marlon King were all replaced, and No. 22 Zigic and No. Redmond came on as substitutes.

On the Hull City side, Bruce also made adjustments. Seeing that Paul and Collen were exhausted, he simply replaced Cavelli with Evans and then changed the formation to 4123.

Kane, Qin Hu and Cooper formed a trident, Paul and Collen continued behind them, and Evans served as a defensive midfielder to enhance the team's vertical defensive ability.

After the first substitutions by both sides, Birmingham team obviously started to exert their strength. Slow death is also death, so it is better to fight hard. There are less than twenty minutes left in the game, and they have to at least equalize the score.

"Oh~, the two new forwards are very active after they came on the field, and the entire Birmingham team is starting to press forward as a whole!"

As Zhan Jun exclaimed, the home team finally started a desperate fight amid the crazy cheers of their fans.

Bruce, who was standing quietly on the sidelines of the court, curled his lips as he watched this scene. According to the tactical arrangement, the opportunity that Hull City had been waiting for was getting closer and closer, and the winner of this game was finally about to be revealed.

In the 22st minute of the game, No. Redmond made a long shot from the edge of Hull City's penalty area, but the ball was lifted out of the baseline by Gulasto.

From the perspective of the home team players, this scene clearly meant that the team had a chance to equalize the score, so in the process of preparing for the corner kick, they almost rushed forward with all their forces, except for a few defenders who stayed behind, everyone swarmed in and outside the Hull City penalty area.
