Green Journey

Chapter 300 Fighting the Hammer Gang again!
On April 4, Leicester City ushered in the challenge of the 17th round of the Premier League against the Hammers to help West Ham United at home.

At 13:[-] London time, there is still half an hour before the start of the game, but the stands on all sides of the King Power Stadium are already packed to the brim.

After this game, there are only 4 rounds left in the Premier League.

Now Leicester City's voice to win the European Championship is not comparable to what it was more than a month ago.

The game has reached this level, even though many people are unwilling to see Leicester City, a civilian team, create a football miracle, but they still have to admit that the probability of Leicester City winning the championship has exceeded 80.00%.

Therefore, this game is hard to find a ticket.

Especially here in Leicester City, the enthusiasm of the fans is high. Everyone wants to accompany their team through this final journey to win the championship and witness every minute of this miracle that belongs to them.

Therefore, the Leicester City club had to repeatedly reduce the share of tickets for the visiting team West Ham United.

At 20:15 BJ time, the live broadcast signal was connected to the live broadcast room of LeTV Sports Channel on time.

In today's game, in addition to the old partners Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu, Fan Zhiyi and Sun Jihai were also invited as guest commentators.

After a series of opening remarks, Zhan Jun continued: "Leicester City, the Premier League leader, currently has 72 points, which has broken the highest points they have ever obtained in the Premier League."

"Behind Leicester City are Tottenham with 67 points and Arsenal with 64 points. The pursuit is quite tight!"

After Zhan Jun finished speaking, the camera appeared on Ranieri who was strutting in the player tunnel.

"Ranieri, this is his 28th season in charge and the most incredible one!"

Zhang Lu nodded and laughed, and said, "The Blue Foxes led by Ranieri have bitten a lot in the Premier League this year. I think if we let the British experts guess again, they probably still can't guess Leicester City. I can go all the way to where I am now!"

Hearing Zhang Lu's words, Fan Zhiyi smiled with emotion: "Football is a kind of attitude towards life, false and true, love and hate, loyalty and betrayal, hope and despair, technical and tactical level and luck coexist; as long as you don't give up, you will be successful." Everything is possible, until the last moment of the final whistle, the ending will never be predicted, this is the charm of football, this is the world's number one sport!"

As soon as these words came out, the live broadcast room suddenly fell silent. Zhan Jun, Zhang Lu, and Sun Jihai looked at Fan Zhiyi in surprise.

"Okay!" Fan Zhiyi rolled his eyes, shrugged his shoulders and curled his lips, "I copied this from the Internet yesterday, okay!"

"Haha!!" The three of Zhang Lu laughed out loud, and the staff next to them were also holding back their laughter.

The four of them chatted for a while before the starting lineups of both sides appeared on the camera screen.

Leicester City: (442)

Goalkeeper: Schmeichel

Guards: Simpson, Morgan, Huth, Fox
Midfielders: Mahrez, Drinkwater, Kante, Chu Zheng

Forwards: Shinji Okazaki, Vardy

"Ranieri's classic 442!" Zhan Jun's expression was as expected, "but Chu Zheng appeared on the sidewalk again today!"

After saying that, Zhang Lu said with a smile: "Ranieri should have tasted the sweetness last time. In this game, Chu Zheng is arranged to appear in the position of full-back. I should still hope that Chu Zheng will continue to make West Ham difficult to care about!"

"Raieri's arrangement is very targeted!" Sun Jihai nodded and gestured, "We all know that West Ham United likes to play high, and the average height of the players is also second to none in the Premier League. A player like Mahrez who is so flexible that he is outrageous will definitely have a headache, and if he doesn't pay attention, he will be stirred into a pot of porridge!"

"West Ham United is not Manchester City, with the strength shown by the pair of Kanter and Drinkwater, they can completely control the midfield of West Ham United!
"So instead of putting Chu Zheng in the midfield, it's better to free him and give full play to Chu Zheng's offensive talent!"

West Ham United: (433)

Forwards: Payet, Emenique, Moses

Midfielders: Noble, Obiang, Kouyatt
Guards: Cresswell, Obonna, Reid, Antonio
Goalkeeper: Adrian

"West Ham United is currently ranked No.6 in the Premier League standings, and there is only one point gap between Manchester United and No.5 in the European theater!"

"West Ham United played a hearty goal battle against Arsenal at the London Olympic Stadium at their home court in the last round. Although they lost 3-4 in the end, their offensive strength cannot be underestimated!"

"Yes, the performance of the Hammers this season is quite amazing. If there is no Leicester City, then they are the big dark horses of this season!"

"So in this game, West Ham United must take all three points and strive to enter the European theater!"

"In this game, although Bilic has a 433 formation, how the players stand and play depends on the game!"

"Judging from the data of the past 10 matches between the two sides, West Ham has achieved 2 wins, 5 draws and [-] losses, which is an advantage."

"But the most recent match between the two sides was the second round of the Premier League this season. At that time, Leicester City was a guest at the London Olympic Stadium. In the end, relying on Chu Zheng's phenomenal performance, they easily won West Ham United with a score of 2-3!"

At 20:30 BJ time, the referee Moss blew the whistle to start the game.

But as soon as the game started, West Ham United, as a guest, gave Leicester City a big gift.

In the 56th second of the game, West Ham United was pressed by Mahrez, Shinji Okazaki, Simpson and others in the left side of the backcourt.

West Ham United did not slap louder than Leicester City. After the left back Cresswell successfully robbed Mahrez, he quickly turned and passed back to the goalkeeper Adrian, who launched the attack with a long pass from the goalkeeper.

In the right rib area of ​​the center circle of Leicester City's half, West Ham striker Emenik retreated to his chest to unload the ball, and then pushed it to Moses on the right.

Kanter continued to chase, and Chu Zheng also rushed back from the center line.

But Moses was very alert, took a few times, and saw that Emenik passed the ball and advanced along the ribs. He quickly sent the ball forward, and then bypassed Kanter and advanced from the inside.

Fox knew what the idea was when he saw Emenick get the ball with his back, and he quickly posted it.

Emenick didn't dare to entangle too much, and quickly met the ball and knocked Moses back.

At the same time, Drinkwater also leaned over, and it was a squeeze to grab the position.

But although the player Moses is a winger, his physical fitness is first-rate, no less than that of a defender, which is outrageously good.

Drinkwater was knocked back as expected.

Seeing that Moses was about to slip away with the ball, Drinkwater immediately tripped.

In the next second, Mossi lost the ball, and the referee Moss' foul whistle also sounded.

"About 35 meters! It's impossible to shoot from this distance!"

"It's hard to say, Payet is good at free kicks!" Zhang Lu shook her head and had a different opinion. "This kind of set ball pass from a distance is also a unique skill of West Ham United!"

Soon, Zhang Lu's crow mouth attribute broke out.

On the field, players from both sides gathered on the penalty area line in the top area of ​​the arc.

West Ham United came up with five players for this set ball, all of them were tall and burly, and they looked like good headers at first glance.

Leicester City's seven Kanters are strictly guarding.

But Chu Zheng was not in the restricted area, he and Okazaki Shinji went to the wall.

After a while, Payet took a free kick.

Chu Zheng, who stood on the left with his back to the goal, jumped very high, but Paye chose Shinji Okazaki's side on the right.

The ball turned a big arc from above Shinji Okazaki's head and went straight to the front point.

On the right side of the penalty point, Drinkwater took off, but the ball rubbed his scalp and fell behind him, and it fell to the top!

In the next second, West Ham's midfielder Kouyat squeezed Kanter away with a cat, reached the landing point and leaned over to the top, and the ball went straight to the right goal.

In front of the goal line, Schmeichel, who chose his position accurately, quickly flew to the left, and accurately hit the incoming ball with his palms together.

But the accident also came at this time.

After being saved by Schmeichel, the ball directly hit the inside of the goal post and bounced back. After rubbing against Schmeichel's chest, it quickly bounced along the goal line to the other goal post, and then hit it again. Rebound on the left post.

Seeing the ball bouncing back and forth laterally, Huth rushed over quickly, twisting his hips and pulling the ball straight out of the sideline.

"Ooooh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Two pillars!!!!!!"

"Leicester City survived!!!!"

"Called, just missed a goal for West Ham!!!!!!!!!"

In the LeTV Sports live broadcast room, seeing this thrilling scene, Zhang Lu and the others all exclaimed!

"Do you think this is luck?" Fan Zhiyi said with a smile, "Even God doesn't want Leicester City to lose!"

"Haha! This is dribbling!!"

In the sideline coaching area, West Ham coach Bilic was as angry as the fans in the stands.

And Ranieri, like the Leicester City fans, had a look of rejoicing after the disaster on his face.
