Chapter 260 Smart Breaking
Leicester City fans in the stands rekindled the blue flames.
Fireworks rise and cheers rise.
The Leicester City players at the stadium were also excited.
At this time, the Barcelona players looked at each other again.
So, then the ball is lost?
what's the situation?
Captain Iniesta even stood there, watching Xia Xing celebrating excitedly, and didn't shut up for a long time.
Busquets patted the old man in front of him: "It's not his fault, he can't deny him."
Iniesta shook his head: "It's not my problem, it's not the team's problem either."
Busquets frowned.
Iniesta stared at Xia Xing closely.
"No, that boy is too strong.
"That means Leicester City is weaker.
"He doesn't have enough room to play.
"His offensive ability is extremely strong. If he is in a wealthy team,
"Maybe he will become their partner in the future, a powerful partner..."
Both sides return to their respective positions and the game continues.
Barcelona continues to look for opportunities in the midfield.
When the ball was passed to the left, Waimar chose to go it alone, but Morgan destroyed it.
Not Leicester City's fast break.
Xia Xing was still the commander of the counterattack that time.
When Bu Nao received the ball, at least three Barcelona players were surrounding him!
Now in the hearts of Barcelona players, Xia Xing is definitely the only one in Leicester City!
You must not let him pass the ball or shoot again!
In the past, the ball was broken.
Barcelona's counterattack almost equalized the score.
If Kante hadn't tackled Rakitic in time, maybe Messi would have done it alone.
At this time, Barcelona has entered a normal state, and the summer trip has been settled.
He dropped back and the whole team got the signal.
Start retreating!
Xia Xing stared at the Barcelona players in front of him and thought to himself.
Just beg for another 40 minutes and they will win!
Guys, hang in there!
During the period when they came from the east, Leicester City was really trying their best to hold on.
Many of Barcelona's passes were destroyed by Leicester City's midfield, especially the combination of Kante and Xia Xing, which is getting better and better.
Messi gets worried when he sees Xia Xing, and Waimar gets a headache when he sees Kante.
Coupled with Drinkwater who assisted the two in defense.
Those three defensive midfielders covered a large area and completely covered the defense.
Their defensive quality is higher than in the half court.
After all, after playing for nearly an hour, Leicester City gradually got used to the rhythm of the wrong leg.
Just try to control the key links so that the wrong leg will be in vain.
Time continued to pass and the game came to 75 minutes.
At this time, Van Persie received a long pass in the frontcourt but failed to head the ball.
He was already very tired.
Just when Ranieri was considering making substitutions, Barcelona's offense resumed!
Pique actually took the ball from the backcourt and rushed all the way to the Leicester City midfielder!
With one more player, Leicester City's midfield and backfield defense is in chaos!
Pique made a decisive pass!
The ball goes to Messi!
At the penalty area line, Messi receives the ball!
He made a slight adjustment and shot straight away!
The ball hit the ground and hit the far corner of the goal!
"The ball went in!
"Smart goal!
"Pique made a great contribution that time!
"After stealing the ball from Van Persie, he accelerated to the frontcourt with the ball!
"He chose the teammate he trusted the most, and Messi did not betray his trust!
"That shot was really smart!
"Schmeichel was completely blocked from view by his teammates and had no time to react!
"The ball went straight into the far corner of the goal!
"3 to 3!
"Barcelona equalizes again!
“The competition is even more exciting now!
"Can Leicester City continue to score goals and create miracles?"
Listening to the cheers of Barcelona fans in the stands, Ranieri on the sidelines looked back at the bench.
Now the team is equalized.
He doesn't care about the players.
Those boys scored the first goal in the Eastern half, taking the lead, and they have been defending until now and have not conceded a goal.
It's already not easy.
I want to know if they are facing Barcelona.
But there we reached 3-3 with Barcelona, forcing Barcelona to equalize the score after almost 80 minutes. That was already quite successful.
Even if they lost that game, Leicester City would still win applause from all over the world.
But no, who doesn’t want to win?
Even if we miss Barcelona, so what?
Shakespeare asked in a low voice: "Continue to defend, should we attack? Or should we see Xia's adaptability?"
Ranieri looked back at the bench again. He hesitated for a moment, and his eyes instantly locked on one person.
He waved his legs.
"Guys, it's our turn to show off."
"good!"
"Once on the court, cooperate well with Kanter and free Xia."
"no problem!"
"Whether the team can create miracles depends on our performance."
"He will do his best!"
Barcelona celebrated the end and before the game restarted, the fourth official held up his sign and made a substitution.
Drinkwater and Robin van Persie at East End.
Albrighton and Cambiasso come off the bench!
Both of these players are powerful midfielders!
After coming on the court, Leicester City's formation changed.
From 4-4-2, it became 4-4-1-1.
Albrighton went to the left wing and focused on defense, echoing Mahrez on the right wing.
Cambiasso and Kante partnered as a defensive midfielder.
Xia Xing, on the other hand, was liberated and moved to the midfielder position.
In Van Persie's situation in the east court, he and Vardich become Leicester City's double offensive points in the frontcourt.
That adjustment was profound.
As far as Bu Naocuo is concerned with Xia Xing, he is still very much in the middle of the midfield.
From the outside, it seemed that they would withdraw Robin van Persie and replace him with Cambiasso, changing the formation to 4-5-1 and continuing to strengthen the defense.
But Fuxing knew exactly what Ranieri wanted to do.
He looked towards the sidelines and Ranieri nodded at him.
Xia Xing also nodded.
Do you want to implement plan B?
Before that game, Xia Xing had discussed the team's tactics with Ranieri many times.
Especially how we play tomorrow.
After Ranieri agreed to Xia Xing's opening tactics, they made many assumptions.
If the team can hold on to the victory, it will try to hold on and win after stealing the peach.
That's Plan A.
If the wrong team scores a goal, equalizes, or even falls behind, plan B must be implemented.
After all, a wrong leg will kill Barcelona. Even if a goal is scored, they cannot press out and attack fiercely, otherwise they will be beaten into a sieve.
This will allow Xia Xing to be positioned further forward and freer.
Because there are not many points in this team that can create miracles, Xia Xing is definitely not the best hope.
Now, plan B begins.
After Albrighton came on the court, he perfectly executed Ranieri's defensive request on the left wing.
Facing Messi, will he make a tackle as soon as he comes?
Although he did not touch the ball, Messi's dribbling rhythm was disrupted.
Cambiaso follows decisively and steals the ball!
The two new defensive players perfectly disrupted Barcelona's offense!
After stealing the ball, Cambiaso did not hesitate in the middle and directly made a long pass!
Vardy actually succeeded in countering offside and scored a solo goal!
The calm veteran stopped and passed the ball, but unexpectedly created a murderous intention!
