Chapter 50 Another Penalty Kick!

"Hello fans, this is Sky TV.

"The game I bring to you today is the No.14 round of the British Championship, Watford played against Leicester City at home.

"The grievances between the two teams, I believe everyone is very clear.

"Watford's miracle has also become the number one hot topic in the Championship last season.

"Leicester City failed to reach the Super League and hated the 12-13 season.

"Watford didn't make it to the top either.

"It's a comeback this season and both sides are eyeing it.

"Especially Leicester City, they are looking forward to a battle of revenge.

"In this game, they still played the best 4-4-2 formation, with a balanced offense and defense.

"Goalkeeper Schmeichel, back four De Laet, Konchesky, Wes Morgan, Liam Moore,

"The four midfielders Xia Xing, Andy King, Drinkwater, Matthew James,

"Double forwards Knokite and Nugent.

"It is worth mentioning that last season's main striker combination appeared in the starting list.

"Especially Konokite, who was one of the 'deep players' in the Watford miracle,

"Because he missed the penalty, the team lost the chance to go to the top.

"It's interesting that Pearson still starts him in this game.

"At Watford, they played the same 4-4-2.

"Goalkeeper Almunia, back four Doyle, Cassetti, Briggs, Exland,

"Four midfielders Abdi, Arnia, Chalobah, Bartozio, two forwards Deeney and Videla.

"This line-up is almost the same as the starting line-up against Leicester City last season,

"Especially Deeney and Videla, who were the scorers in the last crucial battle.

"Videla scored twice to seal the victory.

"Deeney was the miracle worker at Watford and he delivered the final blow.

"This game can be described as a narrow road for enemies.

"No matter what the result is, I believe the process will satisfy the fans!"

Yes, fans will be satisfied.

And it was quite satisfying from the start.

Especially neutral fans.

The referee's whistle sounded, and the Watford players took the ball towards Leicester City's half!
Fast break is their forte!

That Watford miracle was also the result of a fast break.

Today, though, their strengths are in trouble.

As soon as the ball was passed to the left, Draet made a sliding tackle and directly overturned Chalobah who received the ball.

The referee's whistle didn't sound!

It's a frontal tackle, and it's pretty cool!
Don't look at Draet who is joking and joking on weekdays, he is the pistachio in the team, but today he also worked hard.

In that painful game last season, the opponent used a fast break to break through the left line of defense guarded by him, which resulted in a goal.

The painful past must never be repeated!

A counterattack by Leicester City, Andy King's long-range shot was punched by Almunia.

As a former Arsenal goalkeeper, Almunia's comprehensive level is one of the best in the British Championship.

Big foot kicked off, the ball landed in the middle, and the two sides competed again in the midfield.

Drinkwater knocks Arnia away!
Abdi squeezed away James who received the ball again!

Andy King throws the ball forward through the crowd!

Bartozio put the shovel head-on and knocked Andy King down!
The two sides fought fiercely in the midfield!
After a wave of scrambling like pinball handles, the ball was kicked into the Leicester City penalty area by Watford players!

"This is a great opportunity!

"Deeney got the ball in the box!
"He didn't make adjustments, volleyed!

"The ball hit the net!
"The ball went in!

"1 to 0!

"Perfect start!

"Great goal!

"Watford lead!
"This goal is entirely a manifestation of their tenacious willpower!

"Leicester City spoke boldly before the game and wanted revenge.
"But now?

"Ha ha.

"I dare to conclude now that this game will definitely be a massacre!

"Total carnage!"

Listening to the arrogant remarks of the Watford fan commentator, the neutral commentator next to him pouted.

He doesn't like this kind of expression that is too clear, but there is no way, the audience likes it, and the executives like it.

Only in this way can traffic be brought in, and he can only express his views as neutrally as possible from the sidelines.

"It's just the beginning, Leicester City will not sit still."

At this time, the game has been kicked off again, and the Watford fan commentator snorted.

"If they don't sit still, what else can they do?
"With their impatience in this game,
"Don't talk about winning, there is no way to tie the game!

"You look at their midfield passes now, there are mistakes again.

"Andy King played very badly in this game, the dribble was intercepted.

"The ball came to the wing, Bartozio dribbled it in and he went past...

"Ball broken?
"It's that Hua country boy, Xia?

"He's been in really good shape lately, but definitely...

"He shakes off Chalobah who's up for grabs?
"Sprint on the wing!
"But it doesn't matter, Exland's defense is like steel.

"Xia chose to cut inside, outside the penalty area he intends to pass...

"He kicked straight to the goal?
"The ball went in???

"Is this all right?"

Looking at the stunned partner beside him, the voice of the neutral commentator is much louder!
"The goal was fantastic!
"The ball was intercepted in the middle and Watford fought back.

"But they were intercepted by Xia from the wing!
"During this time, Xia was the hottest star in Leicester City!
"Walking two defensive players in a row on the wing,

"Burst shot after an inside cut!

"Left foot volleys into the dead corner of the goal!
"Goalkeeper Almunia didn't respond!
"Xia's shot is powerful and brilliant!

"1 to 1!

"Leicester City equalized!

"One minute after conceding the goal, they changed the score!
"This game is getting more and more interesting!"

The fans of the visiting team celebrated excitedly, and the coaching staff on the sidelines of the stadium also applauded non-stop.

Pearson breathed a sigh of relief: "This goal is too important, too important."

Shakespeare nodded: "Yeah, when we conceded the ball just now, our players experienced some ups and downs. Andy King's conceded the ball, that's it. If they continue to play like this, they may encounter more trouble. This goal is too timely. Xia is great!"

On the court, the teammates embraced Xia Xing excitedly!

This goal allowed them to regain their confidence in winning!

In the next period of time, Leicester City players became more active.

And the best performer is still Xia Xing.

His continuous escape on the left made Watford players very uncomfortable.

Although I analyzed Leicester City's tactics before the game, especially Xia's situation.

But when it came to the arena, they still found it extremely difficult to defend this Hua country kid.

In the 15th minute of the game, Xia Xing stepped on his bicycle outside the penalty area and suddenly accelerated towards the penalty area!
Briggs kicked Xia Xing!
Xia Xing fell to the ground!

It's in the restricted area!
The referee's whistle sounded!
penalty!

Another penalty!
