Star Card System

For Guardiola, Leicester City is definitely a good signing.

Even if the dark horse is full of quality, it is still better than meeting teams such as Real Madrid and Barcelona.

It's better than meeting teams like Paris and Manchester City. At least you don't have to worry about "money ability."

After the draw, I heard that you beat Manchester United?

Bayern's Pistachio Muller excitedly sent out a funny video.

"I can't wait to meet the best team in the Premier League!"

Although there is nothing wrong with this statement, it has a profound meaning.

Although Mueller's expression was funny, it was clear that his voice could be heard.

It's the feeling that the strong have for the weak, wanting to try something new.

There is no competitive pressure at all.

They still don't think highly of Leicester City.

But that's okay.

The day after the draw results came out, Ranieri chatted with the players with a calm expression.

"Guys, for us it doesn't matter who we play against in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

“They all have more European experience than me, we are just rookies in the Champions League.

"But so what?

"We still have the courage to defeat them!

"How about Real Madrid?

“We still lost to us in the group stage!

“What about PSV, Benfica?

"Fall still at our feet!

"So, boys,

"Be prepared to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League!"

Break into the semi-finals of the Champions League.

The eyes of the Leicester City soldiers were shining.

How could they have dared to think so two seasons ago?

But now, they are standing outside the Champions League semi-finals.

a step far.

Fight!

From that day on, Leicester City’s training ground became much more lively.

The players' energy has reached a new level, and Shakespeare can't even open his mouth from ear to ear.

Turning to look at Ranieri, Shakespeare secretly admired him.

If the former Pearson was the coach who provided help in times of need, then Ranieri was the icing on the cake.

The famous "Tinker" really complements Leicester City this season.

In the next few games, Ranieri continued to rotate.

Especially in the sixth round of the FA Cup, he still played as a substitute.

Facing Reading, an old rival from the English Championship, Leicester City won 2-0 neatly.

Xia Xing once again became the team's hero.

Xia Xing once again became the team's hero with every pass and shot.

The coach of the opponent Reading was very calm in the post-match interview. He was not too frustrated about the failure.

"Leicester City is too strong now and cannot be compared with Reading, so our loss is not the team's problem, but the opponent is too strong. Especially Xia, I can't find anyone who can Even if I can defend him for a while, I can't defend him for a whole game. Moreover, I have arranged three players to guard him, and there is nothing I can do. Xiao has seized the few opportunities. For a team with such talented players, we are convinced to lose.”

Faced with praise from his opponents, Xia Xing remained calm and exchanged jerseys with the opposing players in a friendly manner after the game.

In the past few years at Leicester City, Xia Xing has made rapid progress.

In addition to the technical and physical aspects, wearing the captain's armband also makes him more leader-like.

Don't be alarmed in chaos, be calm and calm.

After this game, Leicester City reached the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

How far he can go next depends almost entirely on Xia Xing's performance.

After the FA Cup, there are still three Premier League games between the Champions League quarter-finals.

In the 30th to 32nd rounds of the Premier League, Leicester City faced Newcastle, Crystal Palace and Southampton respectively.

These three opponents are not strong, and Leicester City has no big problems.

Two wins and one draw are the final results of these three games.

In the game against Southampton, Leicester City tied with their opponent 1-1.

Because he was about to face Bayern, Ranieri once again sent out a full substitute lineup.

Even Xia Xing only played for 45 minutes before being forcibly replaced by Ranieri.

In the end, Leicester City failed to win their opponent.

But it doesn't matter.

Although Arsenal maintained their winning streak, three wins allowed them to narrow the points gap to 11 points.

But still out of reach.

There are now six games left until the end of the season.

Although they are still working hard, Arsenal have almost no chance.

Now, the entire Leicester City team is working hard to prepare for the next Champions League quarter-finals.

The match will be held on April 6, and the entire Leicester City team will arrive at the Allianz Arena in Munich on April 4.

Adapt to the venue in advance.

However, on the day I moved into the hotel, an episode occurred.

As the team entered the hotel, a group of German reporters rushed up and wanted to interview Leicester City players.

Ranieri frowned slightly. He asked the players to go up first, and then dealt with the reporters himself.

To be honest, the only reporters who could stop the players at the door of the hotel for interviews at this time were not reporters from major newspapers or media.

Those who know etiquette will wait for the pre-match press conference or make an appointment in advance.

Most of the people who came today were paparazzi and other media.

Well, against England's "The Sun".

"What do you think of the game the day after tomorrow?"

"Do you think you have hope?"

"Compared with Bayern, your lineup is too thin. Are you ready to form a steel barrel formation?"

These questions are annoying, and they put Leicester City in the position of a weak party.

This made the Leicester City players very unhappy.

Ranieri politely responded with a few words, and just when he was about to ask the hotel security to drive the people away, a reporter suddenly jumped out.

"Guardiola said he is interested in Xia, what do you think about this?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the Leicester City coach stopped immediately.

What's going on?

The reporter took out his mobile phone and quickly played a short interview video of Guardiola.

"Xia is a very good player, I like him very much, and if possible, I would like to have the opportunity to coach him."

This is a TV interview, with no beginning or end.

Maybe it was a casual remark made by Guardiola when talking about Leicester City.

But considering that Guardiola has done similar things before, maybe this remark was intentional.

Before Arsenal played against Barcelona, ​​Guardiola once expressed his love for Fabregas, which eventually led to the farce of Fabregas leaving the Gunners at the end of the season at his own expense.

Now, this is happening again.

Ranieri wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

His face looked very bad.

At this time, a figure walked quickly behind him.

It was Xia Xing.

He came to the reporters, looked at the reporter who asked the question just now, and snorted coldly.

"I'm telling you formally - joining Bayern? I'm not interested!"

"But..."

"No buts!"

The reporter wanted to ask more questions, but was stopped by Xia Xing.

Xia Xing smiled disdainfully and uttered a sentence slowly.

"How do you know Guardiola wants to bring me to Bayern?

"Maybe what he meant by that sentence is,

"He wants to buy me to Manchester City!"

Just came back from a business trip, and quickly uploaded it.

This business trip took a bit of time, and I was delayed on the road.

Don't worry, everyone, it's definitely not TJ.
