Chapter 95

  Facing Sheffield Wednesday at home, Leicester City encountered a little trouble.

  The opponents knew very well what Leicester City wanted to do, so they simply set up their buses and defended.

  The 7-3-0 formation made Pearson dumbfounded on the sidelines.

  What are they trying to do?

  You simply don't want us to win, do you?

  Shakespeare said with a smile: "If they draw us, then our lead will become 17 points, not counting the early victory. Then they will not be the backdrop for us to win the championship six rounds in advance. Maybe they think that is more important."

  "Haha," Pearson smiled coldly, "Do they think they can stop us? "

  Although everyone in Leicester City is confident about this game, the game is still not easy.

  Leicester City, which played with almost all its main players, kept bombarding the iron barrel formation, but it was really difficult to score.

  Especially in the face of Sheffield Wednesday's ferocious marking, Leicester City were unwilling to make too much physical contact.

  After all, the FA Cup is about to be played and there is no need to be injured right now

  Because of this, Sheffield Wednesday held on for 45 minutes without allowing Leicester City to score.

  But just at the beginning of the second half, they finally lost the goal.

  In the 48th minute of the game, Xia Xing's corner kick hit the center of the penalty area accurately again!

  Chris Wood, Vardy and other players are waiting at the front point!

  Sheffield Wednesday's defense was thrown into chaos!

  However, neither of them touched the ball, and the ball continued to fly towards the center!

  Captain Morgan quickly entered the penalty area, jumped high, and headed the ball into the goal!

  The ball hit the net!

  The ball went in!

  1 to 0!

  Leicester City finally breaks the deadlock!

  In the live broadcast room, the commentator kept praising them.

  "People always say that there are no underdogs in the English Championship, which makes sense.

  "It's not that every team in the English Championship is strong, but that they are equally strong.

  "And in the case of strong confrontations, there is a high possibility of accidents in every game.

  "This usu makes the games more suspenseful.

  "For Leicester City, they are at an absolute dominant level this season.

  "Many opponents simply set up a bus when facing them,

  "Not asking for goals or win, but just asking for a point.

  "In this case, Leicester City often find themselves in trouble.

  "But as time goes by, they gradually have more ways to score goals,

  "such as free kicks!

  "In Leicester City's formation, the free kicks of several offensive players are acceptable,

  "but they are not very good, and the goal rate of direct freekicks is too low,

  " so they more often seek cooperation.

  "In this case, xia's excellent passing injected new vitality into Leicester City.

  "His Excellent passing in games, and his ability to assist from set pieces is unparalleled.

  "Xia has used set pieces to assist many times this season to help the team score goals.

  "The pass just now was very subtle. It looked like it was going forward, but in fact it was looking for captain Morgan who was pushing forward in the middle.

  Where the camera is, the two heroes of Leicester City's goal are hugging each other excitedly.

  "Captain, your header is so cool! Why didn't you consider being a forward? Hahaha!"

  "Hahahaha! You're right. I did play as a forward, but the youth team coach said I was too bulky. Not suitable for playing as a forward."

  "They have no vision!"

  "That's right! He has no vision! Xia, it's a great decision for Leicester City to rent you out!"

  "I really like Leicester City!"

  "Next season you might as well..."

  Before Morgan could finish his words, his teammates rushed up and hugged him tightly.

  Morgan smiled.

  Forget it, for now, it won't be too late to say it later.   

  After scoring a goal, Leicester City was completely stable.

  Now it's Sheffield Wednesday's turn to worry.

  Their behind, how should they play next?

  Continue to hold on?

  Does it make sense to stick to a 0-1 score?

  Then attack?

  If the opponent counterattacks, more goals may be scored.

  But compared to 0 to 1, 0 to 2, and 0 to 3, the difference is not big.

  But that's not the most important question.

  The most important problem is that in their 7-3-0 formation, there is no offensive player who can score for them!

  The three midfielders are all defensive midfielders.

  The seven defenders are all defensive, and none of them can go to the wing.

  Just when Sheffield Wednesday was confused, Leicester City scored again.

  This time it's Andy King's show.

  Since the rise of Xia Xing, Andy King has given up his position as the core of the offense.

  With Xia Xing's wonderful performance, Andy King's usefulness in the offense has gradually weakened.

  Later, he even became a rotation player. Due to tactical reasons, he was often replaced by a tough defensive midfielder, with Xia Xing completely organizing the offense.

  The absolute mainstay of the team last season and the current No. 10 player of Leicester City, his status is deteriorating.

  But even so, every time he appears on the stage, he will perform well.

  Even if he rarely directly participates in the offense, he will try to use his personal movement and passing to create opportunities for his teammates.

  This season he has been directly involved in fewer goals, but his role on the field has not diminished.

  He started this game and he has been working hard.

  Both of his shots in the first half were just shy of goals.

  Now that the team has taken the lead, and the opponent's defense is loose, Andy King found a good opportunity.

  Xia Xing passed the ball diagonally to Andy King!

  Then sprinted forward at high speed!

  At the same time, Mahrez on the right was also accelerating!

  Sheffield Wednesday's defense was driven from both sides and was crumbling!

  Andy King didn't pass the ball!

  He sprinted decisively from the middle!

  He used his speed advantage to get past the opponent's midfielder and enter in front of him!

  Vardy and Chris Wood are both in the box, ready to go!

  But Andy King didn't pass the ball!

  28 meters away from the goal, he suddenly took a cold shot!

  The goalkeeper's attention is on the two forwards and wingers on both sides of the penalty area!

  Unexpectedly, Andy King took a shot!

  "The ball hit the net!

  "Absolutely a blind spot!

  "Wonderful shot!

  "He Caught the goalkeeper off guard!

  "This is the offensive cooperation of the entire Leicester City team!

  "Every offensive position is a great threat!

  "Sheffield Wednesday can't do anything!

  "Andy King's long-range shot is definitely world-class!

  "2-0!

  "Leicester City is safe in this game!

  "We can even congratulate them in advance!"

  That's right, sure.

  After being scored twice, Sheffield Wednesday had completely lost their confidence and energy.

  In the next few dozen minutes, Vardy and Drinkwater each scored a goal, and the score continued to change.

  The final score is 4-0!

  Another big win for Leicester City!

  When the referee's final whistle sounded, the King Power Stadium burst into applause and cheers!

  Countless blue figures shouted loudly!

  "We are the champions!"

  "Premier League! We are here!"

  "Shock! The great Blue Fox will conquer the Premier League!"

  "Oh oh oh oh!"
