Football: Starting from being abandoned by Barcelona

Gao Yi excitedly explained in the live broadcast room: "Oh, what a pity! Tottenham defender Dembele's foul this time is very controversial! We saw that the entire Tottenham team was arguing around the referee about the severity of the penalty. They were obviously very dissatisfied with the decision."

"Oh! Leicester City players have taken action, led by Li Lei, to rescue the referee from the crowd. The referee signaled both sides to remain calm."

"Dembele's move to pull Mahrez down in the backcourt this time is indeed somewhat controversial."

"It doesn't look like a hard foul, but more like physical contact during defense. Tottenham players also collectively questioned the referee because of this."

"But the referee has made a penalty, and this free kick opportunity was sent to Leicester City."

"We know Li Lei's free kick level, this is simply an excellent chance to score! Let's continue to pay attention to the progress of the game!"

At this time, the live broadcast room was full of barrages, and supporters of both teams were speaking and discussing this matter.

"This foul is too weak, not even an elbow was touched!"

"The referee's eyes must be swollen, what is he calling!"

"The scene of Tottenham players besieging the referee is too exciting, the referee deserves to be scolded!"

"Dembele was obviously just defending normally, how did it become a foul? There is something wrong with the referee!"

"This penalty is too unreliable, and the anger of the entire Tottenham team is justified."

"Where did you buy your eyes to call such a free kick at a critical moment?"

"I hope Tottenham will not get angry about this, deal with it calmly, you will definitely turn the tables!"

"Hahaha, Tottenham players still want to argue? It's obviously a foul."

"Dembele's defensive loss is too amateurish, not only did he knock someone down, but he also argued with the referee."

"Fans, stop arguing, everyone pay attention! Now the focus is to see our brother Lei take a world-class penalty!"

"This position is so beautiful, it must be a beautiful free kick goal!"

"Brother Lei will never miss such a chance to give points, get ready to see the highlights of the goal!"

"Come on, brother Lei! You must shoot and score, give Tottenham a head start!"

"Hurry up! Wait until the flowers wither!"

After some arguments, the order on the field was finally restored.

After Li Lei came to the free kick point, he carefully observed the position of Tottenham's goal. He stared at Tottenham's goal for a long time. He found that the position of this free kick was too straight, and it was difficult to score a goal with a direct shot.

So he quietly called Albrighton to his side and whispered: "I will do a touch run later, you pass the ball to me horizontally."

Albrighton nodded in response: "Understood!"

After the explanation, Li Lei also made a three gesture to Vardy, as if hinting at some kind of cooperation.

Obviously, Li Lei had simulated the precise looping angle in his mind. He avoided the direct free kick and designed multiple cooperation to dismantle the Tottenham defense.

"Wow! This is a tactical free kick! Li Lei did not kick the ball directly, but ran and changed positions. The one who actually kicked the ball was Albrighton!"

"Albrighton passed the ball to Li Lei, and Li Lei used a clever touch to pass the ball to Vardy in the penalty area!"

"Oh! Vardy was knocked down by Lamela in the penalty area! This is a penalty!" In the live broadcast room of Sky Sports, the host Keane said excitedly.

Commentator Jones continued: "Lamela was too careless in defense this time and committed a foul directly in the penalty area. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick and showed Lamela a yellow card!"

"It was wonderful! The tactical cooperation designed by Li Lei and his team worked, and they perfectly used the free kick opportunity to create a penalty kick situation! Leicester City has an excellent offensive opportunity!"

"Now the critical moment has come. Can penalty taker Li Lei seize the opportunity and open the scoring for Leicester City? Let's wait and see!"

However, surprisingly, Li Lei did not take the penalty kick himself, but gave the opportunity to Vardy.

Vardy seemed very grateful for Li Lei's trust. When the referee put the ball down, Vardy came to 11 meters and waited for the whistle.

With a crisp whistle, Vardy took a run-up shot, the ball flew over the goal line and hit the net directly!

"goooooooal!!!"

"In the 32nd minute, Leicester City opened the scoring with Vardy's penalty kick!"

The home fans at the King Power Stadium were completely excited! They cheered for Vardy's goal.

Taking the lead was a huge encouragement for Leicester City, which gave them sufficient morale, which showed that they were not much worse than these strong teams.

With the end of the first half of the game, Leicester City finally led 1:0 and came to the halftime break.

This game was very unsuccessful for Tottenham,Not only did they receive two yellow cards, but they also lost a goal due to defensive errors.

Tottenham coach Pochettino looked very annoyed. He severely criticized the players' performance during the halftime break.

Pochettino said sternly in the locker room: "I don't want to see the same rubbish performance as in the first half in the second half! The defense was a mess, allowing the opponent to create a penalty kick, which was simply embarrassing!"

"Your defensive position is a mess! The midfield and frontcourt defense is not resolute, and the defense is out of position! Are all these new players in the team just for show?"

"I don't care what method you use, you must cheer up in the second half! How many times do I have to tell you, focus on their two forwards!"

"Don't expect to equalize the score with a counterattack, you must fix the loopholes on the defensive end! I need to see everyone fighting hard!"

"Remember, you are all Tottenham players! If this is your level, then don't even think about getting into the top 4 of the league this year! Reflect on yourself!"

In contrast, Leicester City was in high spirits.

Ranieri encouraged his disciples in the locker room and said, "Gentlemen, we executed the tactics in place in the first half, and it was not easy to get ahead. Now we can't slack off at all!"

"We must remain patient and positive, Tottenham will definitely fight back in the second half."

"Therefore, our defense must be more precise and solid, especially to keep a close eye on their key players."

"On offense, continue to pass quickly and smoothly, look for opportunities to counterattack, but don't rush to attack frantically, you need to calmly control the rhythm."

"Everyone remember, Tottenham will never give up, we must guard against arrogance and face their storm in the second half."

"With the first goal, we must stay rational, as long as we stick to the game plan, we will definitely defeat the strong enemy!"

"Keep your confidence and determination! Let's win another game and defeat Tottenham!"
