Last season, Leicester City was a complete victim and a background.

In the Championship play-offs, the two sides tied 2:2, and the game went on until the last minute of injury time.

Leicester City won a penalty.

Everyone thought that Leicester City was only half a step away from the Premier League, and the fans had already started celebrating.

However, Frenchman Anthony Connaughton, who was standing in front of the penalty spot, kicked a half-high ball that the goalkeeper liked the most because of nervousness.

Former Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia saved the penalty!

Connaughton's follow-up shot was also dramatic.

He kicked Almunia in the face and bounced out!

Watford used the last 30 seconds to launch a counterattack. No. 9 striker Deeney grabbed a point in the penalty area and volleyed into the goal.

The lore!

The excited Watford fans rushed into the stadium, dyed yellow.

The blue Leicester City players collectively had dull eyes and watched their opponents celebrate on their faces.

They fell down at the closest place to the Premier League and became the background of the Watford miracle.

The shadow of this game has not dissipated until now.

Anthony Connaughton, who was supposed to take the penalty kick, voluntarily gave up the qualification to take the penalty kick.

He even rarely cut inside to shoot, and just used his footwork to send a cross from the right. The entire right-side offensive threat was reduced by more than half.

If it weren't for Lin Mo's joining, I'm afraid it would take a long time for Leicester City to adjust in the new season.

Watford, who created miracles, was also not up to the mark.

In the final of the play-offs, they lost to Crystal Palace 0:1 in overtime and also lost their Premier League qualification. In the new season of the English Championship, the two enemies met again.

Due to the content of Lin Mo's previous interview, this game was full of gunpowder from the beginning!

……

《Is the invincible boy getting cocky? He claims to win the championship undefeated!》

《Naming Watford, Lindsay wants to lead Foxes to revenge》

《Revenge! Can Watford break the Foxes' unbeaten record?

The first to come out and challenge was Watford coach, former Premier League Chelsea star and famous Italian striker Zola.

Compared with his playing career, his coaching career seems unremarkable.

After being fired by West Ham, he led Watford to stay in the Championship and failed to succeed in the Premier League.

Zola smiled easily in the pre-match press conference:

"I can understand that an 18-year-old talented midfielder created a phenomenal performance of 19 assists in 13 rounds, which is indeed commendable."

"But he seems to have underestimated the English Championship. The failure to win the last game is enough to prove that Lin Mo can still be stopped."

"Winning the championship unbeaten is a bit funny. As everyone studies it, Leicester City's problems are gradually being exposed."

"They may be promoted to the Premier League this season, but we will win this game... just like last season"

"Sorry, Leicester City's unbeaten record will be ended by Watford.

Zola's response started the pre-match verbal war, followed by the No. 9 striker who scored the winning goal against Leicester last season, Deeney.

"It was a shame that they didn't score the penalty, but that attack helped me create the best memory of my career."

"I really want to do it again. It's easy to score against Leicester."

He was just rubbing salt into Leicester's wounds, especially Anthony Knockaert on the right. His inner demons have not been broken yet.

The opponent is deliberately provoking him.

Sure enough, the match between Watford and Leicester City was a little bit different from the first minute of the whistle.

The home team Watford played a defensive counterattack, deliberately giving up possession of the ball and letting Leicester City attack.

They also learned the mad dog tactics, using crazy running without sparing their physical strength to constantly disrupt the midfield.

They deployed in the middle. With heavy troops deployed, there are large gaps on the wing.

In order to save energy as much as possible, Lin Mo kept trying to hit the ball to the right after the game started, to Anthony's side where the defense was weak.

As a result, Anthony was holding back his energy and was eager to prove himself.

Before, his playing style was more leisurely, but now he just gritted his teeth and dribbled the ball, learning from Robben, cutting inside and shooting when he found an opportunity.

The more eager he is to prove himself, the more opportunities he will give his opponent.

As a result, Watford frequently lost the ball on the right, but attacked along the wing, creating many dangerous situations.

"Another quick counterattack from Watford!"

"A simple and powerful attack, directly hitting the penalty area!"

"Cross! Deeney's header!!"

"Schmeichel!! He flew to save the team!"

The Foxes fans breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the captain Wes Morgan was a central defender,

Lin Mo was close to Anthony, and he couldn't help it, regardless of whether the other party was a veteran.

"Anthony, what's going on? Pass the ball! We are both open!"

If he had passed the ball to Lin Mo or Andy King who was in an open position, it would have been easy.

""I'm sorry, it's my fault."

Anthony was also very regretful and apologized repeatedly.

If it was someone else who criticized him, Anthony might not care.

But this person was Lin Mo. The 18-year-old boy was the core of the team's winning streak. He repeatedly created opportunities for himself.

Anyone who played with him would understand the value of Lin Mo.

Then, Anthony's performance became much more normal.

Assistant coach Shakespeare nodded with satisfaction:

"I feel like Lin is a good candidate to be a captain. He has a strong influence and has gradually become the backbone of the team in the locker room."

"Really?" Pearson was a little surprised."He is only 18 years old."

"Influence has nothing to do with age."

Shakespeare has the most contact with the players, and he knows Lin Mo's position in the team.

……

Anthony's inner demons are hard to be completely resolved for the time being, and the only way is to complete revenge and defeat Watford.

Lin Mo can temporarily use all-round interception to block the opponent's penetration in the middle, but how to break through the mad dog defense is the key, otherwise it will be difficult for him to find an opening and use all-round passes.

The game has been going on for 85 minutes, and the score is still 0:0.

The active use of gravity dribbling consumes too much energy, and he is afraid that he will not be able to stand up after using it.

Lin Mo plans to try to use"kill dribbling" more.

Marseille's whirlwind near the penalty area can indeed create a lot of threats.

He consciously advanced his position slowly and tried to take the ball actively in the offense.

"The game has entered injury time, and Watford's iron bucket formation is effective"

"Leicester City has few offensive opportunities.……"

"Lin, controlling the ball in front of the penalty area, did not rush to pass it, but looked for opportunities himself!"

"When teammates' passing routes are blocked, you can indeed break through by yourself……"

"Here it comes! It’s his Marseille turn again!"

Just as the commentator finished speaking, Lin Mo performed a wonderful turn at the top of the penalty area!

He used the power of the midfielder's close defense, took advantage of the opponent as a leverage point, turned around twice in a row, and broke into the penalty area!

""In!"

Lin Mo calmly kicked the ball in front of the goalkeeper!

The Watford center back and goalkeeper fell to the ground almost at the same time to block the ball!

Only then did Lin Mo raise a triumphant smile.

"So naive!

His shot almost fooled the camera.

"Lin, shoot - eh? Suddenly a cross pass!!"

"Anthony Konokate - empty goal!! Easily pushed the ball into the net!!"

"What a tough match!"

"Anthony celebrated wildly after scoring the goal. He completed his redemption! He finally scored the goal that he failed to score last season! Revenge was successful!"

……

Thanks to Lin Mo's sudden breakthrough,

Leicester City broke through Watford's iron defense away from home and completed revenge with a score of 1:0!

In an interview with the media, Lin Mo finally hit back at the opponent's pre-match remarks:

"They are still immersed in last season, but now it's a new season, wake up!"

"Leicester City's unbeaten streak may come to an end, but not now, not against Watford, nor against a Championship team!"

If there were still people who doubted Lin Mo's bold words before, now he is gradually proving himself and proving that Leicester City has the strength to be unbeaten!

His speech also reminded the Blue Fox fans.

The start of the League Cup and the third round of the FA Cup are getting closer and closer. Do the Blue Foxes, who are killing all over the English Championship, have a chance to go head-to-head with the Premier League teams?

There are more than two months before the third round of the FA Cup, which will not start until early January next year.

The League Cup is in full swing.

In the first three rounds of the League Cup, basically all the reserve teams and youth teams participated, and

Lin Mo didn't need to take action at all.

Leicester City defeated the English League Two and English League One teams in a row and successfully advanced to the fourth round of the League Cup!

Their next opponent has been released!

It is indeed a Premier League team!

On October 31, the fourth round of the League Cup!

Leicester City will go to Craven Cottage to challenge the"farmer" Fulham!
