Chapter 264

Leading 2 to 1, Leicester City regained the advantage of the game.

Before the end of the first half, there was another attack from the center.

This time, Xia Xing and Drinkwater cooperated twice in a row.

Drinkwater drives the ball forward!
Tottenham's attention is all on the wing of Leicester City, the center is empty!

35 meters from the goal, Drinkwater took a long shot!
The ball went straight into the far corner of the goal!

There's nothing Lori can do!

3 is better than 1!

Another goal for Leicester City!
Leading by two goals, Leicester City were able to relax a bit at halftime.

After the start of the second half, Tottenham made substitution adjustments.

They sent the young Ali and Sun Xingmin to separate the two to form a three-forward to assist Kane.

But unexpectedly, it took only 10 minutes for the two to score a goal together!
This time it was Kane who was the post in the frontcourt, received a pass from Lamela, and knocked sideways!
Ali received the ball and changed direction continuously in the penalty area to get rid of it!
He saw Kane running to respond, and the defensive attention of many Leicester City players was also on him.

Simply pick a pass to the far end of the restricted area!
Look for Son Heung-min!

The South Korean striker moved forward quickly, and immediately slammed back when he caught the ball!
Directly out of the way of Simpson's defense!
Grab the angle and volley!
The ball went straight to the corner!

3 is better than 2!

Tottenham pulled a goal back!
In the next period of time, Tottenham began to take the initiative.

Relying on his speed advantage, Sun Xingmin sprinted quickly, hitting Leicester City's defense back and forth.

And Ali also caused a lot of trouble for Leicester City by virtue of his agility and technique.

If it weren't for Kante's excellent defense, maybe Leicester City would be in trouble.

At the critical moment when the team was in danger, Xia Xing stood up.

On the left, Fox made a solid tackle on Lamela.

This defense is very important.

During this period of time, Draet's state has been a little ups and downs, and Fox has gradually replaced him and secured his main position.

From the pass after this stable tackle, it can be seen that his offensive and defensive capabilities are indeed more comprehensive than Draet.

Even Xia Xing couldn't help admiring him secretly.

It's beautiful!

After catching the ball, Xia Xing did not hesitate and started quickly!
A passerby on the left, started!

The defense between Dembele and Dell is extremely fierce!

They are well aware of Xia Xing's strength, if they let him pass, it will be dangerous!

Even if you get a card, don't let him pass!
However, is Xia Xing so easy to prevent?

Facing the defense of the two, Xia Xing deftly flicked the ball to the right!
The ball passed between Dell's legs!

Xia Xing bypassed Dell, continued to lean forward to the left, and returned to the side to speed up!
Dembele was directly knocked down by Dell, and both of them lost the ability to continue to catch up!
Kyle Walker in front of him followed closely!
He's super fast!

Never lose to Xia Xing!
And the body is strong enough!
A healthy Kyle Walker is definitely at the level of the world's top full-backs!

However, Xia Xing's speed has already increased, and now he has the advantage!
Facing Kyle Walker, Xia Xing did not slow down, and suddenly stopped!

Cut inside!

Sprint directly to the penalty area in front of the right!
Kyle Walker froze for a moment, then quickly chased back!
He can still catch up!

However, Xia Xing has no time to wait for him!

On the penalty area line, kick and shoot!

The ball hit the upper left corner of the goal!
Lori just stretched out his hand and didn't even have time to make a save!

The ball crashed into the net!

4 is better than 2!

Another goal for Leicester City!
Continue to expand the score lead!

There was thunderous applause at the King Power Stadium, and countless fans shouted Xia Xing's name loudly!
Now the soldiers of Leicester City can also breathe a sigh of relief.

And this goal extinguished the confidence that Tottenham had just ignited again.

In the next period of time, Tottenham played obviously out of order.

Although many players are still trying to score goals, they still lack cohesion.

This Tottenham team has a lot of talented players, but it just can't play a good overall effect.

In the end, Leicester City won the game 4-2 at home.

With three points, the league continues to lead the league.

After this game, Leicester City ushered in a new battlefield this season.

In the second round of the Carabao Cup, Leicester City played away against Bury.

This Championship team is very weak, and Leicester City sent all substitutes to play.

But this time the full bench lineup has nothing to do with the strength of the opponent.

In the team's tactical training room, Ranieri explained to the players his goals and direction for this season.

"We have a very strong squad this season.

"You are the best team in the Premier League in my heart!
"And we have a good bench depth,

"The rotation players are also playing at a top level.

"But even so, there are some games I still intend to give up.

"It cannot be said to be giving up, it should be said to be a strategic adjustment of the degree of emphasis.

"This is our first Champions League and I hope to make a breakthrough,

"Go as far as you can.

"And in the Premier League, I want to go all out!

"Last season you finished fifth in the Premier League, which was great.

"This season I hope to go further and firmly enter the top four of the Premier League.
"That's my minimum requirement.

"Even, we can create miracles!
"Why not?

"So, this season's domestic cup competition, I hope to let more rotation and young players play,
"I don't care about the results of these games, I only care about whether you can show your spirit.

"Give more opportunities to young players,
"On stage in the Carabao Cup and FA Cup."

Ranieri said so, and he did so.

On August 8, Leicester City played away against Bury.

This game is still full of substitutes and young players except for Xia Xing.

For example, the young defender Chilwell got the chance to start.

And even for Xia Xing, Ranieri asked him to only play for 45 minutes.

Facing a Championship team, Leicester City is enough even if it is a substitute lineup.

In the first half, Leicester City overwhelmed their opponents and scored two goals in a row.

Xia Xing assisted Kramaric and Konokite respectively, and helped the two substitute forwards score a goal each.

The 2-0 score was maintained until the midfield.

Seeing that the battle situation had stabilized, Xia Xing also ended steadily.

But I didn't expect the situation to change suddenly in the second half.

The young Chilwell received a red card for a tackle in the penalty area!

The opponent scored with a kick!
2 to 1, Bury scored a goal!
Leicester City, who played one less player, was a little flustered.

Especially Xia Xing's end, completely lost the backbone on the field.

Soon, they conceded two more goals.

2:3.

Leicester City was completely defeated by their opponents.

In the end, when the referee's whistle sounded, Bury, who won the upset, cheered.

The Leicester City players were extremely disappointed.

But Ranieri on the sidelines didn't seem so concerned.

He hugged and shook hands with the players off the field one by one.

Even if he lost, it was within his expectation and within his acceptable range.

What you have to give up is what you get...
