Chapter 18

  The cheers at King Power Stadium were loud and the fans were extremely excited!

  Although it was just a goal in a friendly match, it was the first goal at the King Power Stadium this season!

  It was very Significant!

  Especially when facing a League Two Team and they couldn't open up the situation, this goal came at just the right time!

  Although the score of 1-0 is not perfect, it is at least much better than not winning!

  Moreover, this goal was created by a young newcomer!

  On his first appearance in a Leicester City jersey, he gave a wonderful assist!

  A perfect start!

  The fans gave Xia Xing applause and praise without hesitation, and his teammates also stepped forward to hug the young Chinese boy in a friendly way.

  "Not bad! Really good!"

  Assistant coach Shakespeare was smiling on the side of the court.

  However, coach Pearson did not speak or applaud. He just looked at the notebook in his hand quietly, as if thinking about something.

  The excitement of the goal wore off and the game resumed.

  After conceding a goal, York City no longer wanted to defend.

  Since they are already behind, they might as well press forward and see if they can create a scoring opportunity.

  The tactics changed and Leicester City suddenly had some defensive pressure.

  But not much.

  Their attack pressed to front of the penalty area and was easily suppressed.

  Two consecutive waves of attacks came to an abrupt end, and York City completely understood how big the gap was between itself and its opponents.

  In the 85th minute of the game, Leicester City once again got a fast break opportunity.

  The ball fell to left back De Laet.

  This time he passed the ball forward without hesitation!

 Lets Leave it to my former Manchester United little brother - Xia Xing!

  After receiving the ball on the left wing, Xia Xing took advantage of the situation and rushed forward!

  Directly past the defensive player who was marking him!

  Facing the second midfielder who rushed in diagonally, Xia Xing changed the frequency of his feet slightly, causing the opponent to lose their center of gravity!

  Pull the ball forward to continue the sprint!

  Beat a defender again!

  About 25 meters away from the goal, Xia Xing decided to take a kick himself!

  Take a step and shoot into the far corner!

  The ball bypassed the defense!

  Hit the goalpost hard!

  Pops to the bottom line.

  what a shame!.

  The Leicester City fans in the stands sighed, but then applause broke out!

  In just ten minutes, Xia Xing won the recognition of Leicester City fans!

  This guy is good!

  At this time, Shakespeare praised again on the sidelines: "Xia is really good, he seems to have made some more progress than before!"

  This time Pearson did not remain silent, he commented in a low voice.

  "The reason why xia seems to be performing well is because the opponent is too weak.

  "When I say weak, I mean not only weak in strength, but also weak in physical confrontation.

  "Just those two dribbles, if it was in the English Championship, He would have been knocked away by the opponent.

  "Even if he can get past the opponent, it will only cause a foul at most.

  "His weak body is still a huge flaw."

"And the shot just now looked good, but he had better choices."

  "Nugent has started to accelerate. As long as he picks the pass to the back point, he can create a better opportunity.

  "But Xia still did not pass the ball and chose to shoot.

  "I think he is not a particularly unique player. The reason why he chose this way is just because he did not make a reasonable assessment, or his vision was not wide enough, he failed to see the situation of his teammates, and he did not see the opportunity.

"Xia is still not good enough to play in the English Championship."

  Listening to Pearson's words, Shakespeare opened his mouth, but still did not speak.

  From the bottom of his heart, Shakespeare liked this young man very much, and he wanted to refute a few words on behalf of xia.

  But he also knew very well that he could not refute.

  With his profound professionalism, Shakespeare knows that what Pearson said is right.

  Xia is very good, with first-class speed and explosiveness, and excellent ball control skills.

  Although his shooting and passing skills are average, they can be considered to be at the lower level of the British Championship.

  However, his physical resistance is indeed very weak.   

  If the previous opponents were a little rougher, he would suffer.

  So, young man, you have to work hard...

  On the sidelines of the pitch, Shakespeare prayed for Xia Xing.

  On the court, Xia Xing is still enjoying playing football.

  At this time, his teammates are all a little tired. Even the players who came of the bench in the second half have now reached the critical point of physical fitness.

  But for Xia Xing, the excitement has just begun.

  After receiving the ball several times, he controlled the ball very relaxedly, dribbled past people, and then passed the ball to the forward.

  Knockaert and Nugent each got a shooting opportunity, but neither took it.

  In the end, the game ended with Leicester City winning 1-0.

  Although they lost, York City was in a good mood.

  They are already very satisfied to be able to play like this with the powerful Leicester City.

  York City has two days off, so they can have a good rest.

  But the winning Leicester City players were not so lucky.

  "Since you played a bad game, tomorrow's vacation will be changed to half a day!"

  "Ah..."

  "Have a break in the morning and have an indoor tactical analysis course in the afternoon."

  "Oh..."

  The players looked sad.

  they originally wanted to take a good rest, but ended up having to practice more.

  "In these few days, we will prepare for the second friendly match. The second opponent is from the top five leagues, and it is even harder to play."

  "Disband and go home, everyone can go separately."

  However, Xia Xing did not stop training.

  He entered the system and continued training in the "virtual arena".

  After two hours of competition, Xia Xing quit with satisfaction.

  He specifically looked at Zidane's card fusion progress.

  There is still about half of the hours left, and thus integration will be completed around mid-August.

  The data in the previous attribute upgrade has also completely integrated into the original data.

  For example, "Speed, 85+2." has become "Speed, 87.".

  It seems that this S-level Henry card has been completely integrated.

  But Xia Xing is also curious, how are the points for this fusion calculated?

  The system prompts timely.

  [Tip 1: The card's absorption bonus and the growth of various data are related to the card's ability, the host's effort, and the host's training type. The higher the value of the attribute, the less points will be added. ]

  [Tips 2: The sum of the points added after each card is fused is equal to the fusion time divided by 2. ]

  Xia Xing understood.

  Henry's card is S-level and has a fusion time of 50 hours, which means the points increase is 25.

  This increase allowed Xia Xing to feel some changes in his body.

  For example, the last shot today felt very good, and the force and angle of the shot were more accurate than usual.

  If you calculate it this way, after the Zidane card is completely integrated, 100 divided by 2-50 points will be added!

  This is definitely a big improvement for myself!

  Thinking of that time, Xia Xing was already excited.

  You must know that Zidane is a superstar with comprehensive skills and super physical strength. How will the growth rate of his various statistics be?

  It's really worth looking forward to!
