Chapter 152

 The wolfsburg fans had cheered wildly in the stands!

Their team was ahead again!

In the 78th minute of the game, De Bruyne successfully scored with a blast from 30 meters away.

Wolfsburg went ahead 2-1.

Two minutes later, just after the kick-off, Xia Xing suddenly broke out.

Dribbling the ball past two people, he shot a long-range shot from about 35 meters, which was shocking and blasted away from the net.

2-2, Leicester City tied the score again.

At this moment, both sides are back on the same starting line.

The score was evenly divided again, and the two sides returned to their initial rhythm.

Especially Wolfsburg, their defense became tighter.

Especially for Xia Xing, three players were simply sent to mark him.

A pretty high valuation .

After all, Mahrez is off the field, Drinkwater's physical fitness has also declined seriously at this stage, and Vardy is unable to support himself in front.

Now as long as Xia Xing is blocked, Leicester City will have no chance at all.

But in this way, Wolfsburg does not have many offensive possibilities.

As soon as Xia Xing caught the ball, three players surrounded him, and Xia Xing could only distribute the ball.

Shakespeare on the sidelines sighed regretfully: "It would be great if our team could have a few more players like Xia. If we have more, we will definitely be able to go further."

Pearson shook his head: "For a team of the size of Leicester City, it is simply impossible to have one more player like xia. I would be very satisfied if I could have one xia."

Shakespeare: "Then we'd better introduce an outstanding defensive midfielder, world-class, capable of taking on defensive tasks, strong enough to allow Xia to rush forward completely without distractions and engage in offense."

Pearson: "It's even harder to find a good defensive midfielder. It's even harder to find than an offensive player, especially a world-class one..."

While chatting on the sidelines, the fight is still going on on the pitch.

The time was left with three minutes of added time.

Xia Xing once again distributed the ball to the right and handed it to Hammond.

Right back Moore stepped forward to assist, and together with Knockaert in front, the three substitute players passed the ball continuously and contributed a threatening attack.

But in the end, Knockaert's shot was firmly held by Benaglio.

Leicester City lost their last chance.

The referee's whistle sounded and the game was over!

2 to 2, Leicester City and Wolfsburg tied!

This result is acceptable to both parties.

Facing an opponent with four consecutive Premier League wins, Wolfsburg is content with just one point away from home.

Leicester City faced the Bundesliga giants in their first ever Europa League match, and a draw was not bad.

The two sides exchanged jerseys after the game and the atmosphere was friendly.

Gustavo wanted to exchange jerseys with Xia Xing, but De Bruyne beat him to it.

As early as the whistle blew, De Bruyne had already walked quickly towards Xia Xing.

"Xia, I want to exchange jerseys with you."

"OK."

Xia Xing took De Bruyne's jersey and handed his own jersey over.

The two looked at each other with admiration in their eyes.

"De Bruyne, your performance was so great, we were almost defeated by you alone."

"Don't say that. I just helped the team score, and you stepped up to equalize the score. It took less than five minutes before and after. It's really annoying."

"Haha, we have to equalize quickly, Wolfsburg is so strong."

"To be honest, I think Manchester United really have no vision, not even Van Gaal."

"oh?"

"If I were Louis van Gaal, I would definitely keep you. Even if you don't agree, I will force you to stay. You are so talented and will become Manchester United's future midfield master."

"Don't say that. After all, Chelsea's future midfield master has been let go. Isn't it even more of a pity."

"At any rate, my transfer fee is more than 20 million euros, which is higher than yours. Your transfer fee is only 5 million euros, which is really exaggerated. We should try to recruit you."

"It would be fun if the two of us teamed up. How about you come to Leicester City?"

"Forget it, unless Leicester can play in the Champions League next year."

"It should be possible."

"So confident?"

"People still have to have dreams."

"Haha, that's good. If one day I return to the Premier League, I really hope to be on the same team as you."

"If you return to the Premier League one day, don't be my opponent."

"I think you will return to Manchester United sooner or later. Maybe I will join Manchester City, maybe."

The two young people talked and laughed, and shook hands sincerely when they said goodbye.

"Xia, see you in the next round at the Volkswagen Arena!"

"You too!"

In the first game of the Europa League, Leicester City got a draw.

The opponents in each country's leagues are all very strong.

Another duel between Red Bull Salzburg and Krasnodar ended with Red Bull Salzburg defeating their opponent 3-0.

Excellent performance on the field and good offensive power.

It seems that Leicester City's situation in qualifying for the Europa League group stage is more difficult than imagined.

But for Pearson, that's all in the future.

After all, the next Europa League game is half a month away, and before that, there are still two Premier League and one EFL Cup games to be played.

After the draw with Wolfsburg on September 18, the King Power Stadium became lively again on September 21.

The opponents in the fifth round of the Premier League are visiting the King Power Stadium, and countless Leicester City fans are looking forward to it!

They were very excited when they thought about this opponent!

Manchester United!

When thinking of Manchester United, Leicester City fans can think of that sweet memory.

In terms of relationship, Leicester City and Manchester United have an excellent relationship.

In recent seasons, Leicester City has struggled in the English Championship and the club is in urgent need of strong reinforcements.

And, it's better to be high quality and low price reinforcements.

It's hard to buy such a player.

However, Manchester United often provides help in times of crisis, sending young players over for training.

Whether it's just a loan or a direct transfer, Manchester United is very generous.

There is almost no charge for renting, just paying the salary is enough.

The transfer value is almost zero, so it's just a token amount, which makes sense.

Drinkwater, De Laet, James...

Many players have transferred.

Last season, Xia Xing joined the team and became the team's strongest support for promotion to the Premier League.

This season, Powell also joined on loan to enhance the depth of the bench.

This makes the relationship between the two teams very good and very sweet.

Of course, these are secondary, the sweetest memory, is——

"FA Cup champion!"

In a bar in Leicester City, countless Leicester City fans were drinking and chatting while waiting for the game to start.

"When I think about the FA Cup last season, I feel so happy!"

"That's right! If I could see Leicester City win the championship, I would lose ten years of my life!"

"I can't live less, I have to live longer, and I also want to see Leicester City win the Premier League title."

"Hahahaha! Stop making trouble! Even though our family is four generations of die-hard Leicester City fans, I wouldn't dare to dream about it."

"The Premier League championship is indeed unrealistic. How about the Europa League championship?"

"It's even more ridiculous, hahahaha!"

"Then at least we can be in the top four this season, right?"

"This is promising! After all, we are still ranked first in the league!"

"Play in the Champions League next season! Oh oh oh!"

"That's right, starting from winning Manchester United today!"
