Chapter 264: Only by giving up can you gain something
Leading 2-1, Leicester City regained control of the game.
Before the end of the half, there was another attack from the middle.
That time, Fu Xiaxing and Drinkwater had two consecutive one-twos.
Drinkwater dribbles the ball forward!
Tottenham's attention is all on Leicester City's wings, and the center is empty!
35 meters away from the goal, Drinkwater took a long shot!
The ball went straight into the far corner of the goal!
There is nothing Lori can do!
3 to 1!
Leicester City scores another goal!
With a two-goal lead, Leicester City could relax a little during the halftime break.
After the start of the eastern half, Tottenham made substitution adjustments.
They sent the young Alli and Son Heung-min to the left and right, forming a three forward to assist Kane.
Didn't you expect that it only took ten minutes for the two of them to score a goal together!
That time, Kane was standing in the frontcourt, received a pass from Lamela, and knocked him sideways!
Ali caught the ball and continuously changed directions outside the penalty area to get rid of it!
He saw Kane running to meet him, and the defensive attention of many Leicester City players was also on him.
Just pick the ball to the far end of the penalty area!
Find Son Heung-min!
The Korean forward quickly moved forward and dunked back instantly after receiving the ball!
Directly dodged Simpson's defense!
Seize the angle and launch a volley!
The ball hit the dead center!
3 to 2!
Tottenham get a goal back!
After a while, Tottenham began to take the initiative.
Son Heung-min relied on his speed advantage to sprint quickly and attack Leicester City's defense back and forth.
And Ali also caused a lot of trouble for Leicester City with his agility and skills.
If Kante's excellent defense had not been denied, Leicester City might have been in trouble.
At the critical moment when the team was in danger, Xia Xing stepped forward.
On the left wing, Fox steadily tackled Lamela.
That defense was very demanding.
During that time, De Laet's condition had some ups and downs, and Fox gradually replaced him and stabilized his main position.
It can be seen from the pass after that stable tackle that his offensive and defensive capabilities are indeed more comprehensive than De Laet.
Even Xia Xing couldn't help but admire him secretly.
Beautifully delivered!
After receiving the ball, Xia Xing started quickly without hesitation!
A passerby on the left road begins!
The defense between Dembélé and Dier was extremely fierce!
They knew Xia Xing's strength very well, and it would be dangerous if he was allowed to pass!
Even if he gets a card, he won't be allowed to pass!
But no, is Xia Xing so easy to prevent?
Facing the defense of the two men, Xia Xing flicked the ball to the right!
The ball passed between Dale's legs!
Xia Xing went around Dell, continued diagonally to the left, and returned to the side road to speed up!
Dembele was directly knocked down by Dier, and both of them lost the ability to continue chasing!
Kyle Walker in front of me followed closely!
He's super fast!
Definitely better than Xia Xing!
And the body is strong enough!
A healthy Kyle Walker is definitely one of the world's top full-backs!
Bu Nao Xia Xing's speed has increased, and now he has the advantage!
Facing Kyle Walker, Xia Xing did not slow down and suddenly stopped!
Cut out!
Sprint directly to the restricted area on the right front!
Kyle Walker was stunned for a moment, then quickly chased back!
He is very chaseable!
Bu Nao, Xia Xing doesn't have time to wait for him!
At the line of the penalty area, he kicked off and shot!
The ball hit the left corner of the goal!
Lori stretched his legs and didn't even have time to save!
The ball hit the net!
4 to 2!
Leicester City scores another goal!
Continue to expand the score lead!
The King Power Stadium burst into applause, and countless fans shouted Han Xuan Xia Xing’s name loudly!
Now the Leicester City soldiers can breathe a little sigh of relief.
And that goal extinguished Tottenham's newly ignited confidence again.
After coming back from the East for a while, Tottenham's play was obviously disorganized.
Although many players are working hard to score goals, they still lack cohesion.
That Tottenham team has a lot of talented players, but they can't produce very good overall results.
Previously, in that game, Leicester City won 4-2 at home.
Three points to the leg, and the league continues to lead the league.
After that game, Leicester City ushered in a new battlefield game this season.
In the second round of the EFL Cup, Leicester City faced Bury away from home.
That English Championship team was very weak, and Leicester City sent out all substitutes.
The full substitute lineup in Bu Nao had nothing to do with the strength of the wrong leg.
Outside the team's tactical training room, Ranieri explained his goals and direction for this season to the players.
“Their squad was very strong that season,
"We deny his best team in the Premier League!
"And their depth is pretty good, too.
“The Tutu players also played at a top level.
"But even so, there were some games where he still wanted to give up.
“You cannot say whether to give up, but you should say whether to strategically adjust your focus.
"If they play in the Champions League for the first time, he hopes they can make a breakthrough.
"You can go as far as you want.
"And in the Premier League, he doesn't even want to go all out!
"We finished fifth in the Premier League this season, which is great.
“That season he hoped to go one step further and firmly enter the top four in the Premier League.
"That's not his lowest requirement.
"They can even perform miracles!
"Why not?
"So, in the foreign cup competition that season, he hoped to let more players and young players play.
"He doesn't care about those games, he only cares about whether we can show our spirit.
"Give young players more opportunities,
"The stage is on for the EFL Cup and FA Cup."
Whether Ranieri said that, he also didn't do that.
On August 26, Leicester City played Bury away.
In that game, except for Xia Xing, all the players were substitutes and young players.
For example, young defender Chilwell got a chance to start.
And even if the summer trip is not allowed, Ranieri begged him to play only 45 minutes.
Facing a British Championship team, Leicester City is still good enough even if the substitutes are not available.
In the half, Leicester City pressed the wrong leg and scored two goals.
Xia Xing assisted Kramaric and Konokat respectively, and helped the two substitute forwards score one goal each.
The score of 2-0 remained until midfield.
Seeing that the battle situation had stabilized, Xia Xing also settled into the east field.
Could it be that we didn’t expect the situation to change suddenly in the eastern half?
The young Chilwell actually received a red card for a tackle outside the penalty area!
The wrong side scored with a kick!
2-1, Bury got a goal back!
Leicester City, with one less player to play, were a little flustered.
Especially the east court of Xia Xing, the stadium completely lost its backbone.
Soon, they conceded two more goals.
2 to 3.
Leicester City were completely devastated by misinformation.
In the past, when the referee's whistle sounded, Bury, who had won the game in an upset, cheered.
The Leicester City players were extremely disappointed.
Ranieri on the sidelines of the stadium didn't seem to care that much.
He hugged and shook legs with the East Court players one by one.
Even if he loses, it is within his expectation and beyond his acceptance range.
Only when you give up can you gain something...
