Full-level pass, please call me the speaker of the Three Lions

Chapter 325: Unresolved free kick, capture Westphalia!
Winning the "Champions League strong team" Dortmund at home is of great significance to the entire Leicester City team and Leicester City fans.

Even if they kill indiscriminately in the Premier League this season, they will kill many Premier League giants.

However, when facing a strong Champions League team like Dortmund, I am still a little scared.

And this victory gave them greater confidence.

You know, Dortmund is one of the top two Bundesliga clubs and has also reached the Champions League final.

Well, they defeated Dortmund, who had reached the Champions League final. Rounding it all off, they can be considered a Champions League final-level team!

Of course, such jokes are just teasing between fans.

The Dortmund team that reached the Champions League final is no longer the same team as the current Dortmund team.

Not only the coach on the coaching bench, but the player lineup has also undergone tremendous changes.

In any case, Dortmund is definitely a strong team ranked among the best in Europe!

To this end, both Big William and Bob began to contact the factory, intending to produce tens of thousands of "We are the Champions" Blue Fox team flags as soon as possible before the next round of competition.

While ranking first in the league, they are also ahead of the second place by as much as fifteen points!

Later in the evening, Tottenham defeated Manchester United 3-0 at home.

Even so, Leicester City still leads second-placed Tottenham by as many as fifteen points with one game in hand!
Tottenham have five rounds left to play.
Theoretically, if Tottenham win all the last five rounds, it is possible to have the same points as Leicester City, and then overtake the Foxes through the advantage of goal difference.

The Internet and social media have become a carnival stage for Blue Fox fans.

After all, Dortmund is one of the two teams in football that always falls short when competing for the championship.

Such a script, even if Shakespeare climbed out of the coffin, he would not be able to write it!

However, the famous professional football rating website WhoScored is also very knowledgeable and gave Blue Fox midfielder Kante, who sent his first assist of the season, a post-match rating second only to Ling Feng!
The comments are:
"In addition to his great contributions on the defensive end, this little French giant has also shown his talent in holding the ball forward. He is on his way to becoming a world-class all-around midfielder!"

“Great trip to Leicester City!”

Heading to the Westfalenstadion in the second round, as long as they don't lose two games, they can advance!

However, it is enough to show how unexpected it is for Leicester City to win.

Winning the championship is already a definite fact!
The pre-season odds of 1 to 500 to win are not as good as the odds of "Justin Bieber being elected president of the United States" and "Elvis Presley is not dead yet".

However, from the first round of the league until the 33rd round, Leicester City stayed at the top of the league and never fell down.

After having Ling Feng, the team's counterattack advancement was basically completed by Ling Feng.

It turns out that in another Blue Fox team without Ling Feng, Kanter was the booster for the team to switch from defense to offense.

As for who the other team is?
I understand everything I understand.

The die-hard fan group "Fox Club" also decided to call on fans to cheer for the team in the next round of home game against West Ham United, which is about to win the championship for the first time in team history.

The only suspense is whether Leicester City can get points in the next round of the league against West Ham United and win the 2015-16 Premier League championship five rounds in advance!
You know, as a newly promoted team that was promoted from the English Championship last season, it is about to win the Premier League championship in its second season.

This means that the team has two boosters that can advance with the ball during counterattacks.

Before the start of the season, no one would have thought that Leicester City, which had experienced scandals and coaching changes, could reach the top eight.

Anyone who knows football can see that Kante's sudden advance with the ball was definitely the key to Leicester City's comeback in the second half of this game!
As Kanter shared part of the offensive and defensive transition tasks for Ling Feng, there was an extra booster in the midfield. The Blue Fox's already sharp and quick counterattack became more difficult to defend.

But the two-goal advantage still gave the team an advantage in the two rounds.

"The Blue Fox is about to be crowned! One hundred and thirty-two years of waiting!"

The starting eleven were all changed!
At the Stadium of Light on the banks of the River Wear, the Blue Foxes surprisingly drew with the "Black Cats" Sunderland and only scored one point.

Whenever there is a transition between offense and defense, Kanter will advance with the ball and deliver the ball to Mahrez or Vardy in the frontcourt.

A newly promoted team from the Premier League that has returned to the Premier League stage after ten years has made great progress and won the first championship in team history without being favored by anyone. This is definitely a miracle!
Realizing this, all the media, newspapers and magazines in the UK began to report on it and warm up to it.

Because, in everyone's opinion, it is impossible for Leicester City to lose the remaining six rounds!
Therefore, after this game, Leicester City's championship is basically stable.

Two days after the game, the team chairman and owner Vichai, who has always been invisible, came to the team base and met with all the team members.

In the season predictions of major media and betting companies, Leicester City's highest ranking is only seventh in the league!

Of course, such a theoretical possibility is extremely slim.

indeed.

Due to the huge lead and the fact that the opponent was the relegation team Sunderland, Ranieri also made a very unceremonious full rotation.

Now, in addition to having Ling Feng, Kanter has also shown his ability to counterattack and advance.

From this moment on, this Leicester City may have surpassed the Leicester City that created the miracle of the Blue Fox
. . .

Although Dortmund got an away goal.

And Ling Feng, who completed two shots and one pass in this game, is well deserved to be the best in the game.

“A draw means the championship!”

Of course, except for Dortmund at the critical moment of the championship.

At that time, all home team fans will hold their flags high to witness the team's coronation!
. . .

It is then up to these two superstars to complete the finishing mission.

After the big battle with Dortmund, before the team had time to rest, they went straight to Sunderland for the league match.

The Thai boss immediately put his hands together and bowed deeply to the team's coaching staff and players, expressing his inner gratitude and excitement.

Of course he would not have imagined that his team would surprisingly win the Premier League championship in their second season after being promoted to the Premier League!

You know, even Manchester City, which was acquired by the Abu Dhabi consortium, did not win the first Premier League championship in team history until four seasons after continuing to spend money.

And how much did Leicester City spend?

The total transfer fee for the two seasons is less than 70 million pounds, right? !

Such an investment and such a return can be regarded as the greatest transaction in Vichai's investment career!
It is worth mentioning that according to the Daily Mail, Leicester City’s championship will bring coach Ranieri a championship bonus of up to 5 million pounds.

When signing a coaching contract with Leicester City at the beginning of the season, Ranieri specifically approached Vichai and asked for a championship clause to be included in the contract.

At the time, in the eyes of the media and Vichai himself, this was just a reflection of Ranieri's sense of humor. However, no one would have thought that this 64-year-old coach who had never won a league championship would actually do it!

In addition to Ranieri, Ling Feng is also about to receive a championship bonus.

Because, as early as when he renewed his contract with the team at the beginning of the season, he signaled Mendes to add a championship clause to the contract.

If he helps the team win the championship, he will receive a bonus of three million pounds!
At that time, Leicester City did not expect that the team could win the championship. They just thought that this was just a small clause for Ling Feng to motivate themselves, so they happily accepted it.

Now, the team has really won the championship.

For head coach Ranieri and star player Ling Feng alone, the club will spend 8 million pounds in winning bonuses.

However, Vichai is not the kind of stingy boss.

Although it was a little painful, he immediately ordered the team's finance department to transfer the championship bonus into their accounts.

Except for Ranieri and Ling Feng, the bonus clauses in other player contracts are all based on standings.

Last season the team finished fifth in the league.

Therefore, the contract terms of most players this season are divided into two levels.

If you finish tenth or above, you will receive a bonus of 6.5 million pounds;
If you place fifth or above, you will receive a bonus of 8.5 million pounds!

In other words, just for winning the championship, the coaches and players of the team will share the bonus of 8.5 million pounds!
In addition, Vichai also announced in public that everyone in the team would be rewarded with a Mercedes-Benz car and a luxury trip to Las Vegas.

Of course, compared to the huge benefits that the team brings to the club by winning the championship, this winning bonus is simply not worth mentioning!
However, after the team owner left, Ranieri said to his disciples with a serious face:

"Although the league championship has basically been won, it is not the time to celebrate yet! Because we have a more ambitious goal this season."

"So, don't relax, we still have a championship to fight for!"

After Ranieri's reminder, the delighted Blue Fox generals realized that they still have the possibility of winning the Triple Crown this season.

And the possibility is very high!
The treble of the season is a great achievement that many wealthy clubs cannot achieve.

For many players in the team who have not had the opportunity to play for wealthy teams, this may be their only chance to win the Triple Crown in their careers.

If they miss it, they will definitely regret why they did not seize this golden opportunity from the moment they retire until the second before they die!

Even if the head coach doesn't need to emphasize it again and again, this team, which is made up of all "losers", also realizes that it has embarked on the most wonderful journey of its career.

Because I have experienced being disapproved by scouts, abandoned by teams, and not favored by the media.

Therefore, players including Vardy, Mahrez, Albrighton, Kante, Drinkwater, Morgan, Huth, etc. cherish every opportunity.

Perhaps they are not the strongest and highest-paid stars.

However, they are definitely one of the teams with the most fighting spirit and desire to win in the entire Premier League and even in Europe!

And this kind of fighting spirit suddenly burst out in the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals!

Even though they are in the most famous Devil's home stadium in Europe, even though their ears are constantly hearing incomprehensible abuse and boos, all the Leicester City soldiers are united and go all out on the turf.

Because the Leicester City players had already made up their mind from the moment they stepped on the court.

Win the game!

Then win three more games, win the damn Europa League, and then prove to everyone in the world that they are not losers, but winners!
However, the beginning of a great story is always not smooth.
The bumblebee returned to the home court and used its spikes to sting the fox hard as soon as it came up!
In the 17th minute of the game, Dortmund played an exquisite cooperation in the frontcourt. After Reus cut in laterally, he completed a tricky low shot and took the lead in piercing Schmeichel's goal!

This goal narrowed the total score gap between the two sides to one goal!
However, the Leicester City soldiers were not panicked at all.

Just ten minutes later, the Blue Fox took advantage of Dortmund to press into the space left behind by the attack, and Brother Drinkwater sent an exquisite overhead long pass.

Then Vardy, who burst out with amazing strength, broke into the penalty area during the confrontation with Hummels.

Use a powerful and heavy shot to even the score!

Leicester City's goal changed the real-time score to 1-1, and the total score also came to 2-4.

This goal erased Dortmund's away goal advantage and brought both sides back to the same starting line.

In other words, if Dortmund wants to advance to the Europa League semi-finals, they must score three more goals!

This is on the premise that Leicester City no longer scores goals!
In order to advance, Dortmund can only continue to press the formation and strengthen the attack.

However, such a radical offensive strategy undoubtedly laid huge hidden dangers behind it.

Leicester City's counterattack was accurate every time!

When the game reached the 62nd minute, Dortmund hit the wall on the wing, but was accurately intercepted by Kante and passed the ball to Ling Feng in the center.

Ling Feng accelerated and changed direction, passing the nearby Gundogan.

Although in the end, he was knocked down by Dortmund midfielder Bender 32 meters away from the goal.

However, the free kick at this position is an excellent opportunity for Leicester City!

Because they have a free kick master in their team!

"Man, are you okay?"

"fine."

Mahrez stretched out his hands and pulled Ling Feng up.

Vardy, who was holding the ball, came to him and handed the ball over with a smile:

"It's all on you!"

"no problem"

After placing the ball and standing in front of it, Ling Feng stared at the Dortmund wall and goalkeeper Burki, who were facing a formidable enemy, and took a deep breath.

"call"

After taking a long breath, he suddenly started to move, and with a "bang" sound, his muscled right leg hit the ball hard!
In an instant, the ball shot out like a precision-guided missile, piercing the sky above Westphalia, crossing the wall, and hitting the upper right corner of the goal!

But Dortmund goalkeeper Burki just stood on the goal line dumbfounded, unable to do anything.
In this way, the best product in the history of the Blue Fox youth training, leading the invincible super genius of the Blue Fox, used a powerful free kick that could not be solved to break the goal of the Devil's home stadium of Westfalen!
It also completely shattered Dortmund's promotion dream!
