Chapter 129 A New Challenge (Eighth Update)
The match has entered halftime.

In the 17th minute of the first half, Jersey scored a penalty.

In the 38th minute, Zheng Tao headed the ball into the net from a corner kick.

Jiaozhou Weili leads Hanzhong Xinyue 2-0!

"The defense needs to be more solid! Lao Xie, you're getting into form too slowly; we almost caused a major disaster in the first half!"

"Damn it! I can't get excited!"

"Give it your all in the second half!"

As everyone entered the locker room, they loudly encouraged each other.

Despite some issues in the first half, the performance was still quite good.

Wei Lai walked into the locker room, looking longingly at Zhang Zhenting.

He stood at the locker room door, swaying from side to side, his cleats clicking against the floor, never stopping for a moment.

The latter also felt the intense gaze.

puff!

Assistant coach Liu Wei couldn't help but laugh out loud. He tugged at Zhang Zhenting and said, "Let him go, he's suffocating!"

Zhang Zhenting shook his head, turned to Wei Lai, and said, "You! Go warm up!"

Wei Lai immediately straightened his back and said, "I'll go right away!"

After saying that, he gave a thumbs-up to everyone in the locker room.

"Guys, you guys are awesome!"

Immediately, he turned and ran out.

Everyone watched Wei Lai's departing figure with smiles on their faces.

"So impatient!"

"After all, it's our debut! We've all been there!"

"Great! That was worth the effort in the first half!"

During halftime, the North Youth Stand.

"Old Xie is terrifying! He almost let that Serbian striker score!"

"It's still not stable enough! Chen Jinyu is a bit slow in making decisions, and it feels like Lao Xie has been tricked."

"The result is good; with a two-goal lead, a winning start to the game is guaranteed!"

"What the hell?"

In the crowd, a fan suddenly pointed to the stadium.

"Is that Wei Lai?"

During halftime, the players returned to the locker room to rest and prepare for the second half.

Some of the substitute players are warming up on the field.

Unlike the others, Wei Lai was warmed up personally by assistant coach Lyman.

Upon seeing this, the fans were all stunned, feeling as if an electric current had struck their entire bodies.

"Are you serious?"

"This is their debut!"

"Good heavens! Is Willie about to go too far?"

"If Wei Lai plays, this game will be fucking worth it!"

"If Wei Lai plays, I'll be there for every home game, starting from the moment I step onto the field!"

Instantly, the North Youth Stand became lively.

For a time, flags were waved incessantly, and cheers rose and fell.

Other fans were unfamiliar with Wei Lai and didn't know much about the situation, so they were somewhat confused.

On the field, Wei Lai also heard the commotion and instinctively looked up, but was immediately yelled at by Lehmann:

“Focus!”

Wei Lai quickly brought his attention back to the present.

"Running back and forth three times!"

After completing the back-and-forth run, Lehmann started throwing the ball to Wei Lai, who then tapped it back using the instep, the outside of his foot, his head, and other parts of his body. This was to activate his ball control.

After these warm-up exercises, Wei Lai, accompanied by Lyman, did some stretching.

At this moment, Wei Lai was also incredibly excited.

He is extremely excited about his upcoming professional debut!

"Warm-up! Warm-up!—"

In the Xigua Sports live broadcast room, Duan Jiang suddenly looked at the switched match screen and exclaimed in surprise;

"Wei Lai is warming up!! Is it possible he'll be playing?"

Liu Zhenghao, standing to the side, was also overjoyed and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Zhang Zhenting studied abroad, and his views are more radical, so it's not impossible!"

"Wei Lai, this young player officially signed a professional contract with Jiaozhou Weili Football Club on March 18th this year, the moment he turned 16!"

"If he makes his debut in this match, Wei Lai will be 16 years and 28 days old when he enters the Chinese Super League, officially breaking the record for the youngest player to appear in the Chinese Super League, set by Fei Peng in 2002!"

At the top of the stands, DJ Fan Xinghan was leading the entire stadium in an interactive session with the fans.

Fan Xinghan's voice, transmitted through the microphone and the dome speakers, resounded throughout the venue.

"Let's shout it out again, Jiaozhou Willie!"

The entire stadium erupted in cheers:

"come on!!!--"

"One more time!!"

"Go for it!!!" At that moment, the door to the DJ room was pushed open, and a staff member walked in and handed over a note.

Fan Xinghan warmed up the crowd while taking the note.

He stared wide-eyed at just one glance.

He covered the microphone with his hand, turned around in astonishment, and asked, "Really?"

The staff member grinned; "They even slipped you the note, do you think it could be fake?"

Fan Xinghan lowered his head again to confirm.

The note contained basic information about Wei Lai, including his football academy background, date of birth, exact age (a new record), jersey number, etc., all in great detail.

This was because they were worried that Fan Xinghan didn't know enough about Wei Lai and wouldn't be able to give an accurate introduction.

Fan Xinghan was immediately excited.

"That's really awesome!"

In the second half, the two sides switched sides and started playing.

The offensive by Jiaozhou Weili was extremely rapid, as if they wanted to cripple Hanzhong Xinyue in one fell swoop.

For them, having already created two goals, why not give Wei Lai a more relaxed debut opportunity?

As for Wei Lai, he is also on the bench, ready to play at any time.

His legs were shaking uncontrollably, and his eyes were fixed on Zhang Zhenting in front of him.

55 minutes, time's up.

Taking advantage of a dead ball situation, Chang Chen-ting suddenly raised his hand and gestured to the fourth official to make a substitution.

"Wei Lai!—"

Wei Laiteng sprang up, ripped off his substitute vest, and ran over.

Zhang Zhenting pressed his hands on Wei Lai's shoulders, staring directly into his eyes.

He could feel the raging flames burning in Wei Lai's eyes.

Zhang Zhenting's lips curled slightly.

"Understand?"

"understand!"

Wei Lai responded loudly!

He has made countless preparations for this moment.

He didn't need Zhang Zhenting to explain everything in detail; he knew what he was supposed to do.

"They're here! They're here!—"

Duan Jiang jumped up excitedly: "He's really here! Wei Lai! He's standing on the sidelines. Jiaozhou Weili's head coach Zhang Zhenting is looking to make a substitution; veteran player number 13, Zheng Yuning, is coming off the field."

Duan Jiang stared intently at the fourth official, at the electronic sign the official was holding up.

[13/18]

"Number 18, Wei Lai, is on the field!!"

Duan Jiang said in a firm and powerful voice.

At the same time, at the Qizhou Olympic Sports Center, DJ Fan Xinghan shouted loudly:

"We proactively sought a substitution, with veteran Zheng Yuning leaving the field and young player Wei Lai coming on as a substitute!"

"Wei Lai, a product of Jiaozhou Weili Football School, is a young athlete we personally trained. After graduating from the football school, Wei Lai joined the Weili first team, adding fresh blood to the club!"

"Wei Lai, born in 2010, is 16 years and 28 days old this year. His appearance broke the Chinese Super League appearance record previously held by Fei Peng!"

"Fans, let's give a round of applause to the young player Wei Lai!"

*Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap!*

Whoosh!!!

The entire stands erupted in cheers!
In the North Youth Stand, the Willie fans were bursting with excitement.

"Awesome!! That's fucking awesome! It's really here!"

"16 years and 28 days! Brother Zhang is really daring to train!"

"That's the kind of boldness I'm looking for! Awesome!"

"Damn! I'm getting goosebumps!"

"Wei Lai!! Keep it up!"

"Go! Go! Go! Wei Lai!"

"Wei Lai!!!"

In the North Youth Stand, the die-hard fans were incredibly excited.

This is no ordinary person!
This isn't some random little demon they just grabbed!

These are their personally trained elites!
This guy is a homegrown genius, raised at the Willys Football School since he was a child!
This is their crown prince!
A deafening roar of cheers filled the air.

Wei Lai stood on the sidelines, his eyes fixed on the field.

Zheng Yuning ran to the sidelines, raised his hands, and smiled:
"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

Wei Lai took a deep breath, raised his hands, and slapped them hard.

"Uncle Zheng! Awesome!"

Zheng Yuning's smile immediately vanished.

Swish!
Wei Lai suddenly crossed the white line and stepped onto the court.

The shoe spikes kicked up bits of grass that flew through the air.

Cheers and applause intertwined to create a moving dance of youth.

With resolute steps, the young man embarked on a brand new challenge!
