Green Journey

Chapter 164 Leicester City is Hard to Succeed!

"Defoe and Larsson are indeed onside!"

"Morgan is falling behind, just on the same level as Defoe and Larsson!"

In the live broadcast room of LeTV Sports, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu spoke at the same time when they saw the replay of the camera.

While talking, they were very worried about Chu Zheng's future.

For such a team, if Chu Zheng wants to continue to make a difference in the Premier League and compete for some honors, it is estimated that it will be several times more difficult than when he was in Wolfsburg.

Until now, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu couldn't figure out what Chu Zheng joined Leicester City.

After much deliberation, they all felt that Chu Zheng should have used Leicester City as a springboard.

Maybe Chu Zheng won't stay in Leicester City for too long.

And the Leicester City fans in the stands were quite speechless when they saw this kind of mistake in the team's defense line through the big screen.

They only hope that this season will not be like the season, staying in the relegation zone for most of the year, which makes them extremely tormented and worried.

As for winning the Premier League championship, they have never dared to have such an idea in their hearts. It is even less likely than winning a lottery of hundreds of millions of pounds.

On the field, Leicester City has been quietly shrouded in crisis again in front of the gate.

Sunderland takes a corner kick from the right.

In the penalty area, Sunderland central midfielders Rodwell and Jones ran forward and took away Draet and Andy King.

Sunderland's two central defenders Kabul and Coates, who stayed on the left side of the penalty spot, ran back.

This corner kick is obviously a routine.

But Huth and Morgan were both experienced, and they saw through Sunderland's intentions in an instant.

Sure enough, the corner kick went straight to the back point after entering the penalty area.

On the front left side of the small penalty area, Morgan and Kabul huddled together and moved quickly to the landing area.

In the blink of an eye, the four of them decided the winner.

Sunderland had no intention of mental arithmetic, Coates stopped Huth and Morgan in front of him, and let his teammate Kabul run behind him and take off to reach the top.

The ball went straight to the middle of the goal.

In front of the goal line, Schmeichel quickly fell to the left, and accurately pushed the ball that was about to cross the goal line.

"Huh!!!!!!!!!!" The stands around the audience exclaimed and sounded loudly.

On the right side of the small penalty area, facing the ball thrown by Schmeichel, Rodwell took off again and hammered the ball towards the goal.

But in a hurry, he didn't hammer out the angle, and the ball was firmly held by Schmeichel, who got up quickly.

"A team like Sunderland that fights for relegation every year in the Premier League, their development of set-pieces is superb."

"Yes, when playing against this kind of team, you must pay special attention to this kind of high ball. If you don't pay attention, he can hammer you several times!"

On the field, after successive crises, the players of Leicester City became more cautious and focused when handling the ball.

So the scale of the game began to tilt towards Leicester City.

In the 12th minute of the game, Albrighton made a strong attack on the left after taking the ball, causing Jones to be forced into a tactical foul.

30 seconds later, Albrighton sent a set kick more than 30 meters away from the goal.

On the free throw arc on the left, Vardy quickly moved forward. On the left side of the penalty area, at least eight or nine meters away from the goal, he jumped in front of Jones and midfielder Cattermole with his back to the goal.

I don't know whether he did it on purpose or not. The ball rubbed against his head, then jumped up immediately, and fell in a high parabola to hit the goal post.

His kick was simply a stroke of genius. The ball not only passed the defensive players in the middle and the back point, but also avoided the ten fingers of Sunderland goalkeeper Pantilimon, and directly hit the inside of the back post and bounced into the net.

"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The moment the goal was scored, the King Power Stadium was in a state of boiling.

Every Leicester City fan was delighted by Vardy's sudden goal.

On the bench, Chu Zheng also had a look of astonishment. Vardy's goal was full of luck.

On the field, what Chu Zheng was most afraid of was this kind of bad luck.

This kind of ball is simply impossible to guard against!

On the sidelines, the bespectacled Ranieri smiled happily with his arms crossed.

Chu Zheng was not sent in this game. He was protecting Chu Zheng and wanted Chu Zheng to make his Premier League debut after fully familiarizing himself with his teammates and his tactical system.

Claudio Ranieri, who had been rewarded for many years before the game, was actually a little worried.

But now it seems that he has not misjudged the players. Although some of these players on the field are players who have been abandoned by other clubs, they still have quite strong strength.

After scoring this goal, Leicester City seemed to have opened up the two lines of Ren and Du on the field, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became.

In the 18th minute of the game, Leicester City attacked again from the left.

After Shinji Okazaki was surrounded by three Sunderland players in the rib area on the left side of the top of the arc, he quickly passed back before the encirclement closed.

Schlupp uses the outside of his left foot to split the ball without stopping.

Albrighton received a Schroop pass in front of the left touchline.

Facing Jones who quickly rushed in front of him, Albrighton swung the outside of his right foot forward to the right, then quickly followed up, swung his right foot and sent the ball into the Sunderland penalty area again.

Frontier of the small restricted area.

Vardy is at the front, and behind him is Sunderland right center back Coates.

But Vardy missed the ball after taking off.

The ball fell to Mahrez and Sunderland left center back Kaboul behind Vardy and Coates.

Mahrez on the left, Kaboul on the right.

Mahrez, who has the advantage of his body, dives directly to the top of the ball falling in front of him.

Immediately, the ball flew into Sunderland's goal again from the corner on the right side of the goal.

"Beautiful!! It's Albrighton again, a precise cross!"

"Valdy also served as a cover!" Zhang Lu said with a cheerful smile.

Seeing this in the game, Zhang Lu suddenly felt that Leicester City did not seem to be as miserable as some domestic media reported.

With all these years in his mind, he suddenly felt that perhaps it was right for Chu Zheng to join Leicester City.

"Chu! We seem to have a chance to play!" On the bench, after Kanter celebrated with his teammates, he smiled and looked at Chu Zheng, full of excitement.

Chu Zheng nodded, but did not speak.

If Vardy and the others score two more, then maybe Ranieri will have to train in the second half, and he and Kanter will definitely have a chance to play.

But if not, then with Ranieri's cautious character, he may not easily let them play.

And Vardy, can they do it?

Chu Zheng thought it was possible.

Although he came to Leicester City for a short time, but because he wanted to play as a midfielder, Chu Zheng began to pay attention to the habits and technical characteristics of each teammate in the game as soon as he joined the team.

For example, which foot he likes to use to catch the ball, how fast he is, etc., are all things Chu Zheng needs to know.

Only in this way can Chu Zheng send tailor-made passes according to the characteristics of these teammates.

He is personally very satisfied with these teammates.

Chu Zheng felt that many unknown players in the Leicester City team were no worse than Wolfsburg's players in terms of technical ability, and there were even better ones.

For example, Vardy, this guy is better than Dost in terms of running position and shooting skills, not to mention Vardy has super fast speed.

As for Captain Morgan, Chu Zheng felt that the Jamaican player was not weaker than Naldo in terms of defense.

Besides, there was another person who caught Chu Zheng's attention.

That's Mahrez.

This guy, Chu Zheng, vaguely remembered that he stayed behind for a year after Leicester City fell apart, and then he seemed to go to Manchester City.

Those who can pass the inspection of the rich team will definitely not be ordinary people.

Therefore, the more he understands Leicester City, the more Chu Zheng knows why this season, Leicester City, an unknown club in world football, can create a miracle in football history and cause a sensation all over the world. world.

With so many good players dormant in the team, and with the right choice of head coach, it is difficult for Leicester City to think about success.
