Chapter 0072, come on, rascals!
The Championship is weaker than the Premier League? NO! 》
Such an article headline appeared on the sports page of The Times.
However, the article was still questioned by many people.
Especially Premier League fans.
"It's not the Championship that has the strength, it's the Leicester City that has the strength! Please figure it out! ”
In an interview with Sky TV, the words of an experienced football commentator speak for many.
"In most Premier League games against Championship teams, the Championship is still an absolute disadvantage.
"The large-scale penalties in the Championship are easy for players to get used to the rough style of play.
"When they are punished harshly, they suffer.
"Leicester are tough, but their style of play is not rough.
'That's why they're able to wrestle with Premier League teams.
"So stop blowing about the Championship, there's no point."
Yes, Leicester City's performance this season has indeed exceeded the attention in the Championship.
Their performance has been heard throughout Europe.
In particular, many players in Leicester City are said to have been targeted by many teams in the top five leagues.
But no one thinks much about it now, because for all Leicester people, going all out is the most important thing.
With wins over Queens Park Rangers and Reading, Leicester's winning streak continues.
On 29 December, they won again against Bolton.
It's the same 1-0, it's also Xia Xing's assist.
Leicester's lead has reached 13 points.
After taking turns to play, the Leicester players are already very tired.
And three days later, Leicester City will continue to play in the Premier League, again away.
On 1 January, the first day of 2014, they travel to Neil Stadium for their first match of the second half of the Championship.
Their opponent is Millwall.
When encountering football hooligans again, the opponent has been shouting for a long time.
"If Leicester come to our home turf, we'll make them look good!"
Leicester beat Millwall in the first half, which made them very embarrassed, and they still remember it vividly.
As soon as I thought about this, resentment arose.
This time, though, Pearson didn't harden.
For him, it is now necessary to maintain the physical strength of the team reasonably.
Especially against Millwall, you have to make sure the players don't get hurt.
So in this game, Pearson fielded an almost all-bench lineup.
Even the captain Morgan was on the bench.
In the starting lineup, only Schmeichel, Xia Xing, and Drinkwater were left as the three absolute main players.
The others are all substitutes.
And in this game, Plzeň's goal for the players is also very clear -
Don't get hurt, eat less cards!
He didn't even mention a request to win.
In other words, the game is fine.
Anyway, now the team is 13 points ahead of second-placed Burnley, and it doesn't matter if they draw or even lose!
Leicester City want to be stable, but Millwall is ruthless.
From the first minute of the game, they rushed ferociously.
But what they didn't expect was a bit new in this game.
How did Leicester City ...... Out of possession?
In this game, at the request of Pearson, Leicester City even took the initiative to give up the ball to the other side.
Then retreat yourself and fight back.
Come on, rascals!
Come and attack!
It's so whole that Millwall can't be rectified.
They just rushed towards the body, but the opponent didn't control the ball, what's the matter?
It's not always for an opponent who doesn't have the ball, right?
Isn't that just a fight?
And Millwall's offensive ability is average, and when the ball is given to them, they don't have any decent offense.
The first half was played for more than 40 minutes and there were no decent shots at all.
In the first minute of stoppage time, Xia Xing put a shovel in the midfield and cut off the opponent's ball!
A long pass straight to the front!
Konoket successfully countered offside and received the ball and shot!
The ball is in!
1 to 0!
Leicester opened the scoring with a quick break!
With a one-goal advantage, Leicester City went into the second half.
In the second half, Leicester City still gave possession to the opposition.
Millwall stormed in the Leicester half.
But it looks like Zhang Fei's embroidery, with a heavy hammer needle and thread, and it has no effect.
In the 78th minute of the second half, Drinkwater broke the ball in the middle of the field and suddenly stepped forward.
At a distance of 35 meters from the goal, shoot with your feet!
The ball hangs in the corner!
2 to 0!
Leicester City scored another goal!
Victory is in sight!
In the end, Millwall also failed to score.
In this match, they wanted revenge, but they were overturned by their opponents.
The fans in the stands continued to scold, but the Leicester boss didn't care.
Scold, the harder you scold, the better we play.
Pilsen on the sidelines of the pitch was even more smiling.
That's great.
No one was hurt in this game and we won the game, which is good, good.
The game was played earlier and Leicester City did not stay overnight and their bus returned to Leicester City.
The bus stopped in front of the club, and Pearson looked at everyone with a smile.
"Guys, you've worked hard today.
"To be able to defeat that group of hooligans without bloodshed,
"You've done a great job!
"Today is the first day of the new year, I wish you all a happy new year!
"Two days off, go back and rest!"
There was a burst of excitement on the bus!
Drinkwater drove Xia Xing to his doorstep and waved goodbye.
When I looked up, I saw that the lights were brightly lit in my home.
After facial recognition, the door opens automatically.
Lide and Lyona are in the living room.
"Haven't you rested so late? Are you waiting for me? ”
"You guessed it!"
Lyona hugged warmly, and Xia Xing was extremely warm.
Li De snorted: "I really let my sister guess correctly, he said that Pearson will definitely bring you back for the New Year." ”
Alyona smiled and pointed to the kitchen, "I don't need you to cook today, we're all ready." From the end of the race, Li De began to calculate the time of your trip, and estimated that it was almost time to get home, and sure enough, it was right. ”
Xia Xing smiled: "Li De, you have such a good brain." ”
Li De pouted: "Anyway, it's better than you." ”
Alyona went into the kitchen, and soon dinner was served.
It's just nine o'clock, and the British often have dinner at this time.
The three of them sat down and chatted while eating, relaxed and happy.
After the meal, Xia Xing went back to the room and took out the New Year's gift for the sisters and brothers.
"Li De, this is a New Year's gift for you."
"A top-of-the-line laptop? Wow, this isn't cheap, it's okay. ”
"Your old notebook can be replaced."
"Ali, this is the Huaguo cheongsam you have always wanted, I asked someone to bring you five sets, all of which are different styles, I hope you can like it."
"Wow! All look good! I love it! Thank you! ”
Looking at the happy appearance of the sister and brother, Xia Xing was full of smiles.
Aliana's New Year's gift to Natsuyuki is a watch with a deep sky blue dial, which is beautiful.
What Li De gave Xia Xing was a pair of casual suits, which were very slim and looked very good.
The stove in the house was warm, and the three of them sat on the sofa and chatted.
Talking and laughing.
The smell of home fills every corner......
