Leicester City is playing steadily and remains at the top of the Premier League.
They are even 8 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal.
Leading the Manchester City duo, the Reds and Blues are more than 10 points away.
That was something that their fans would never have imagined two seasons or one season ago.
The prospects for the league are excellent.
Even the Leicester Evening News published an opinion piece.
"Do they have hope for the league title?"
Although he is just a fan of him, not many fans still have confidence in him.
Even if you are not a Leicester City fan, you cannot dream of winning the Premier League title.
After all, there are many giants in the Premier League. Just because they are in poor form now does not mean that they will always be in poor form.
So in that situation, it's better to play it safe and steady.
Don't think too much.
The Premier League is playing steadily, and the Champions League must seek a breakthrough.
In October and January, Leicester City visited Malmo for the second round of the Champions League group stage.
After being scored by Benfica in a game with a stunning goal, Leicester City has already seen the strength of the Portuguese Super League giants.
It's very difficult to score points with them.
Perhaps the final match against Benfica in the final round of the group stage will become a key battle to determine the second place in the group.
Before that, they had to figure out how many points they deserved.
Especially playing in Malmö.
It's not easy to play against Benfica, and it's even harder to score points against Real Madrid.
Therefore, if you miss the game in Malmo, you must go all out to win.
Of course, if Leicester City played with all their main players in that game, they would not be able to guarantee a safe victory.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the game started, they encountered trouble.
In the fifth minute of the game, Kanter stepped out to tackle the ball during a defense outside the penalty area.
It was a clean tackle, but the referee's whistle sounded!
foul!
Not only that, the referee even gave Kanter a red card!
That made all the fans in the audience confused!
what's going on?
Even the Malmo fans who took advantage were a little embarrassed.
I could see it clearly from the stands, so why was there a red card?
Is it really too...
Leicester City players protested loudly, but apart from receiving two yellow cards, nothing changed.
Ranieri on the sidelines was even sent to the stands for protesting.
Chengdong Shakespeare Conducting Competition.
10 against 11, Leicester City is in trouble.
Malmo is not strong, but that doesn't mean they are weak.
Facing Leicester City, who had one less player to beat, they defended decisively.
At the end of the half, the score was still 0-0.
Malmo still defended in the east half.
It wasn't until the 70th minute of the game that Malmo started to attack.
Facing a mistake and missing one player, Leicester City's entire team can consume a lot of energy.
There has been fatigue at that stage.
Malmo took advantage of the fatigue of Leicester City's midfield and quickly counterattacked!
A shot in front of the goal and a goal!
1 to 0!
Malmo scored!
Leicester City, who expected to win the Eastern Conference leg, actually fell behind at home!
If that is not true, then their desire to qualify for the group stage will be in jeopardy!
In the 85th minute of the game, Fu Xia Xing stepped forward.
His teammates were extremely exhausted, so he had to go it alone.
After getting the ball on the left, he suddenly sprinted with the ball!
Facing two defensive players, Xia Xing directly chose to be tough!
The figure of a strong man from Northern Europe was actually carried by Xia Xing!
Dash!
To the edge of the penalty area!
Kick up and shoot!
The ball hits the net!
1 to 1!
"At the critical moment, xia stood up again!
"He blasted the net with a wonderful shot!
"That goal was fantastic!
"Knocked away two defenders forcefully, and then shot with great force!
“The goalkeeper has no leg strength at all!
"Wonderful equalizing goal!
"Xia once again became the hero of the team!"
After scoring the equalizing goal, Xia Xing also felt a little tired.
There was one less player in that game, and his running distance had already exceeded that before.
Now I try my best to score a goal, but I feel tired.
Looking towards the side of the court, Kanter was no longer around.
Until that season, his favorite teammate was none other than Kante.
Because Kanter is behind him, he can press forward more boldly.
That's completely different from having to pay attention to defense every time you attack this season.
Just hope that with Kanter behind him, Xia Xing will feel extremely at ease.
How lucky you are to have teammates like that.
Previously, that game ended 1-1.
Although Leicester City did not lose, a draw was obviously not enough to support them in qualifying for the group stage.
Especially in another game, Benfica tenaciously tied Real Madrid 3-3.
Now, although they and Leicester City both have two points, they already have a slight lead based on the number of goals scored.
Moreover, they came from the east to play against the weak Malmo, while Leicester City wanted to face the powerful Real Madrid.
There is no room for failure in the competition between Donglai...
After returning to England, Leicester City continues to play a double match every week.
In the eighth round of the Premier League in October and April, Leicester City played Norwich away.
With one player missing in a game, Leicester City's main players were exhausted.
Naturally, he was on the bench in that game.
Regrettably, we also couldn't win that game.
And the same situation happened again.
Because of a tackle, James received a straight red plus a penalty kick.
With that penalty kick, Leicester City lost 0-1 away from home.
After that game, their seven-game winning streak in the league came to an end.
Just like last season, they both failed in the eighth round of the league.
Ranieri wanted to make some adjustments, but ran out of time.
Because it’s the national team competition month again in Jie Donglai.
Players left the team one after another and did not return until a week later.
The Leicester City players who have returned to the team still cannot escape the intrusion of the FIFA virus.
In the ninth round of the Premier League on October 17, Leicester City once again lost a good game.
Facing Southampton, they attacked fiercely throughout the game and contributed 16 shots.
But no goals were scored.
In the past, a 0-0 score turned Leicester City's league winless run into two games.
And they were gradually being chased by Arsenal behind them.
The lead shrank from 8 points to 3 points.
By this time, they had already been criticized by the outside media.
"The Times": "Leicester City has entered the rhythm of falling off the chain again! Just like last season, it began to collapse from the eighth round of the league and lost its top four position. It is probably not the same situation that season!"
"London Times": "I believe it won't take long for Arsenal to top the list! Arsenal will still be a strong contender for the championship this season!"
"Monthly Telegraph": "That's just Leicester City's normal level. They are not at the level of the Europa League. Now the top spot in the Premier League is about to be replaced, and the elimination of the Champions League group stage is just around the corner!"
Countless media outlets continued to criticize, which put Leicester City under considerable pressure.
Even in the Leicester City team, many players have experienced emotional fluctuations...
