After the opening ceremony, the opening match was soon held here at Luzhong, with the host Luzhong facing No. 5 Middle School from Mapo Town. This competition was mainly held in the football fields of Luzhong and No. 1 Middle School, among which Luzhong is a standard 400-meter track football field. In order to meet the nine-person size requirements, a range of 70 meters and 50 meters wide was specially drawn. All competitions in Group A where Luzhong is located are held here, while Group B is moved to the No. 1 Middle School stadium.

In order to facilitate the players to observe and learn, the organizing committee missed the time of both games. So as soon as the opening ceremony ended, except for the opening match, the other teams sat around the stadium in unison to see the style of both sides.

Lu Zhong was very imposing in this battle. They wanted to play beautifully in the first battle at home. The deeper reason was that they could not afford to lose. In the last game, they would face the powerful No. 2 Middle School. In order to compete with their opponents well, they had to work hard to grab points from the first game. Therefore, they lined up a 3-2-3 formation. The three forwards were in the center. The No. 10 Liu Kehu, who was rushing the ball in the crowd before the opening ceremony. At the beginning of the game, he rushed to his opponent's camp like a tiger going down the mountain.

Mapo is the northernmost town in Lucheng County. Because it borders Yucheng City, many industries in the county are also laid out here, becoming a tax-paying town in the county, and making the economic level here ranks among the top in the county. Because it is close to the city, the exchange between Mapo and the city is very convenient, which also includes football exchanges. Therefore, the fifth tier squadron on the court is not a township team that looks at the sky from a well. After seeing the world, they are not frightened by the host's momentum, but firmly tie up their own defense line.

The formation arranged by the fifth middle school is 3-4-1. Facing Lu Zhong, who is pressing forward with all his strength, he takes the initiative to retreat the center of gravity of the defense line and uses low-post defense to defend. Although they are pushed back to their half, the formation is maintained well. Each player has a clear position and division of labor, just like a tightening net.

Lu Zhong, who was pressing heavily, could not attack for a long time, also revealed a large gap in the backcourt. Once the five Zhong Zhong, who was pressing for a long time, once he got a good opportunity to counterattack, he was as fast and powerful as a spring that rebounded. No. 17 flew out of the right side like a wild horse that broke free, and could not hold it back by the players in Lu Zhong, and successfully swiped past the goalkeeper and successfully scored the empty goal.

He didn't score points after getting the ball, and finally knocked on his own door for the opponent. The Lu Zhong student watching the ball on the side of the court suddenly became quiet. After losing the ball, Lu Zhong, who was a little mentally unbalanced, was eager to equalize the score. Unexpectedly, he became more and more anxious. Finally, at the end of the first half, he seized a corner kick opportunity for No. 5 Middle School and successfully pushed the ball into a dead corner. 0:2, Lu Zhong had already entered a state of reprieve.

During the halftime break, there was a lot of laughter and joy on the No. 5 Middle School. The players were drinking water and chatting happily. They had imagined many situations before, but they never dared to imagine such a smooth result. Lu Zhong was completely different. The coach surrounded them in a circle, one by one, and they were drooping their heads, like a defeated rooster, cursing them. They could clearly hear the coach's catchphrase "pig, cow, dog" from the other end of the court.

"Captain, what do you think?" The question was Su Keqi.

"Lu Zhong underestimates the enemy too much and always wants to fight and solve the opponent quickly. Unexpectedly, the No. 5 Middle School will not be anxious about you. The more anxious you are, the slower he will be. The slower he will be, the more stable he will be. In the end, he will be able to steal chickens and lose rice." Xiao Dabao said lightly.

"Well, indeed, don't underestimate the teams in other towns, as their level is no worse than that in the county."

"I don't care about others. Anyway, when we play later, we must not make such low-level mistakes again. The bottom line is the bottom line."

After entering the second half, the Lu Zhong player who was scolded by the coach during the break was like a dream. He no longer made arguing in the offense, but made full use of the width of the court, retreated purposefully, and pulled out the opponent. At this moment, the five midfielders with two goals in their hands felt that the situation was very good and gradually began to become restless. The calm defensive situation in the first half gradually disappeared.

Due to a person's outbreak, the disadvantage situation on the court was completely reversed. First, Liu Kehu received the pass from the backcourt, passed the opponent's defender and successfully scored a point in the far corner. Then he made his clever forward, tearing open the opponent's defense line, and passed the teammates across the inverted triangle to hit the goal, successfully equalized the score, and once again pulled the game back to the same starting line.

After losing two goals in a row, the five-time midfielder had a little psychological imbalance, and the action on the court began to grow bigger, and eventually made a big mistake. He was sentenced to a foul on Liu Kehu in the penalty area. After personally placing the penalty kick he created, Liu Kehu completed the redemption and pulled the team back from the brink of death. In the final stage of the game, Liu Kehu passed four opponents in a row and scored the empty goal, and fixed the score at 4:2. He also became the MVP of the whole game after he scored a hat trick.

After the competition, the slump of the fifth squadron members fell to the ground and the cheering Lu squadron members became a sharp contrast. Liu Kehu, the biggest contributor to Lu Zhong's victory, became a hero. Not only interviews with county TV stations and school newspaper reporters, but also the school's female fan club gave flowers, which was full of star treatment.

After watching the game, most of the people also got up and turned to the No. 1 Middle School next to them to watch another game. Li Weizhen stood up and looked at the cheering Lu Zhong players in the distance and thoughtful. Someone next to him laughed and said, "Don't be envious. As I said, you will never be treated like this. Playing football well, you must study well!" It was the enemy of Lai Jinbiao again.

Li Weizhen turned back to school and became disdainful: "I almost lost. I have nothing to say. I don't envy such a performance!"

"It's really hypocritical to say that grapes are sour when you can't eat them!"

After the transfer to No. 1 Middle School, the match between No. 1 Middle School and No. 7 Middle School began soon, which was also the opening game of Group B. The opening game was indeed difficult to play, and the result of Lu Zhong conceding two goals first was very telling. However, No. 1 Middle School, which learned the lesson, did not let this situation appear on himself, but always firmly grasped the initiative on the field. Finally, with Li Weizhen's second goal and Su Keqi's supplementary shot, he won the opponent 3:0.

What’s interesting is that Luzhong’s opponent No. 5 Middle School comes from Mapo, an industrial center in the north of the county, while No. 7 Middle School’s opponent No. 7 Middle School is a fertile field from the agricultural town in the south of the county. It’s different from the north and the south, and the results are the same, which is also worthy of fun. No. 7 Middle School is not as strong as No. 5 Middle School, and it is reasonable to collapse into a piece of loose sand when facing No. 1 Middle School, the favorite to win the championship, but No. 7 Middle School can concede one less goal than No. 5 Middle School, which is inseparable from the contribution of goalkeeper Pang Renneng.

During the game, Pang Renneng made several moves of flying sideways, trying to protect the goal, but also shocked the strength of this township goalkeeper, and also used practical actions to interpret the principle of a weak team's goalkeeper.
