Chapter 0087, the FA Cup journey continues!
Xia Xing's shot not only broke through Manchester City's goal, but also broke the hearts of Manchester City fans.
Listening to the deafening revelry at the King Power Stadium, Manchester City fans watching the game away were in a very bad mood.
Why is it so special!
The last time I played against Leicester City, I thought I would win 3-0, but the opponent scored two goals in a row!
And he almost equalized before the end!
Now I can't attack for a long time, and I was counterattacked by the opponent!
What's going on?
What are you all doing!
For the fans, they can even tolerate the team's goals and falling behind, but they definitely can't tolerate the team's lack of seriousness!
The away fans booed from the stands!
Manchester City played so badly in this game!
Looking at the Leicester City players celebrating excitedly, their ears were filled with the boos of the fans.
The Manchester City players were in a very bad mood.
But what can be?
For these players, an FA Cup game is really not worth the effort.
Especially against a team that is on a rampage like a bison, it is impossible to fight hard with the other party.
Fans, you have to understand us.
We're not the kind of Leicester City team in the lower leagues who don't have any pursuits and just want to win the FA Cup.
We're going to win the Premier League and the Champions League, the great Manchester City!
Now past the 80th minute, City are trying to find an equaliser, but they don't seem to be working that hard.
As soon as the Leicester players rushed forward ferociously, the Manchester City players flinched.
Mostly.
In addition to Yaya Toure, Kompany and several other players are still desperate.
Dzeko up front was once again squeezed away by a strong Morgan and missed a chance to head the ball.
It wasn't until stoppage time that Dzeko used his personal skills to force a kick on goal.
However, with the interference of two defenders, the ball slid out of the net and another good chance to equalise.
A minute after Leicester City's midfield was down, the referee's whistle blew.
"It's over!
"At the King Power Stadium, we have once again witnessed a miracle!
"Leicester City, with their tenacious fighting spirit,
"Won at home to the mighty Manchester City!
'It's a top of the Championship against the top of the Premier League!
"Leicester had the last laugh!
"Some people may say that Manchester City did not send an absolute main force in this game,
"And there are reservations in the tactical arrangement,
"But a loss is a loss!
"Where are there so many excuses?
"The fighting spirit of the Leicester City players in this game is the best embodiment of the enthusiasm of football!
"Let's congratulate Leicester City again!
"The FA Cup journey continues!
"Will they give us more miracles this season?
"Let's wait and see!"
On the sidelines of the King Power Stadium, Pellegrini shook hands with Pearson expressionlessly, turned to leave without saying a word.
On the sidelines, he looked back at the pitch.
The blue figure of No. 17 seemed to be particularly dazzling.
In the EFL Cup quarter-finals a few months ago, it was he who almost toppled us with one pass and one shot.
Now he has completely defeated us again.
The all-out defense throughout the game once made everyone think that he was a defensive midfielder.
As a result, the final pass, the run, the lethal blow, and the offensive talent were revealed.
Nine times out of ten, the kid will return to Manchester United next season, and there will be another tough opponent in the derby......
As far as the eye can see, Xia Xing is exchanging jerseys with Manchester City players.
This time it wasn't City's starter, it was substitute David Silva.
As the heart of Manchester City's midfield, Silva has a transcendent position in the Blue Moon team and has a huge role.
However, even after Manchester City fell behind, Pellegrini did not arrange for Silva to come on.
In Pellegrini's mind, he was the same as the players thought, that this game was not that important.
What if you win the FA Cup?
Still can't prove himself perfectly.
Only the Premier League and Champions League are on the right track, everything else is an appetizer.
So Silva was on the bench today, and it was just a town, which put some pressure on the players on the field.
However, in the end, the effect was not good, and he could only watch his teammates lose.
But even so, Silva was not without harvest today.
He witnessed a rising star firsthand.
"Xia, I'd like to swap jerseys with you."
Xia Xing turned his head to look and saw Silva talking to him cordially.
Xia Xing also took off his shirt and handed it over: "Hello Silva, it's really my regret that I can't play against a top star like you this season." ”
"Oh? Do you think I'm a top star? ”
'I'm reluctant to call a Manchester City player that, but it's true.
"Hehe, interesting. Your technique is good, your physical fitness is top-notch, and most importantly, your mental strength is very strong, and you will be my future opponent. I'll swap you before you wear the Manchester United shirt and it won't be so peaceful when we meet again next season. ”
"I'm looking forward to playing against you next season!"
"Huaguo boy, we'll see you in the Premier League!"
Walking off the field with Xia Xing's No. 17 jersey, Yaya Toure next to him came up and complained.
"Why are you robbing me? I'd like to swap jerseys with that kid. ”
"Oh? You also think he's good? ”
"Well, the technique is first-class, the physical fitness is excellent, the physical confrontation is also very good, even compared to me, there is not much disadvantage, this kid is really promising."
"Do you guess he'll be a regular for Manchester United next season?"
"It's hard to say, it depends on who the manager of Manchester United is next season."
"That's right, they're still in turmoil, and even the top stars in the team can't protect themselves, haha."
"It's really boring to have a strong opponent missing, but I like it, hahahaha!"
Despite the loss, the City players were not too frustrated.
After all, they are now at the top of the Premier League and the Champions League is poised to start.
The small FA Cup really doesn't look too high.
Leicester City won Manchester City and Pearson gave the players another two days off.
The players worked hard and Pearson was very satisfied.
The final 1-0 result was also perfect.
In the next few league games, Leicester City rotated more heavily to allow the players to rest as much as possible.
In the next 31, 32 and 33 rounds of the Championship, Leicester City's opponents are Nottingham Forest, Ipswich Town and Charlton Athletic.
Leicester City continued their winning streak in three games.
Eight goals scored and two goals conceded in three games.
Several of the substitute strikers have been in good performances.
They are now 18 points clear of second-placed Burnley.
With such a point difference, the Championship champion is gone.
For Pearson, though, he has bigger goals......
