Against West Bromwich Albion, who have been hovering in the relegation zone this season, Leicester City have more than enough psychological advantages.

For Leicester City, the FA Cup is just the icing on the cake.

The club did not give Pearson any FA Cup targets.

Wichai is a smart guy and he doesn't think it's normal because of last season's team winning the title.

In terms of Leicester's quality, it takes a lot of luck to win the FA Cup.

So he definitely doesn't ask Leicester to have any goals in the FA Cup this season.

Just go with the flow.

So Leicester didn't play all the good cards in this game.

After all, they have a lot to do for the next Europa League quarter-final.

West Bromwich Albion, on the other hand, didn't care about the game.

For them, the goal this season is relegation.

As long as the team can be relegated, it is more important than everything.

Their manager will not put too much effort into this kind of fame game, and in the end they lose the league and lose more than they lose.

So they obviously played very conservatively in this game, and they also sent a number of young players to practice.

But unexpectedly, just 15 minutes after the game started, something happened on the field.

In a midfield scramble, West Brom players took the ball and were organizing.

It was an indifferent pass, but the young James Pearson tackled him directly behind him!

The referee's whistle blows!

Red!

Direct red card!

Without any hesitation!

The Leicester players were a little dazed.

In the face of the furious West Brom players, the Blue Foxes on the pitch did their best to protect James Pearson.

After all, this foul is too obvious, and the malice is not small, so the Blue Fox soldiers are also restraining their emotions and tolerating the anger of the other party.

West Brom dropped one injured and Leicester sent one.

The scene was a bit chaotic.

The next free kick was passed into the penalty area, and the ball bounced back between several players and bounced into the net!

Substitute goalkeeper Benhammer didn't have time to react!

1 to 0!

West Brom actually took the lead!

This goal gave them hope of victory!

While they don't have much hope for this game, who wouldn't want to win if they can win?

For the rest of the day, they bombarded Leicester's half-time.

If it weren't for Xia Xing's desperate defense, the team might have conceded again.

Until the 42nd minute of the game, Xia Xing assisted with a long pass, and the ball found Knoket in front.

Knoket dribbles forward with the ball and knocks back near the baseline!

Inverted triangle pass!

James keeps up with the push!

The ball goes into the net!

1 to 1!

Leicester finally pulled a goal back!

This made Pearson on the side of the pitch breathe a sigh of relief.

When his son was down just now, he didn't pay attention to him at all.

This rebel!

It's okay if you don't do your job properly, but today I made a mistake in the game.

Do you think this foul is necessary?

Get the team into this situation.

At half-time, Pearson admonished the players.

"We played one man less, and in the second half we had to distribute our energy properly. Also, we have to be efficient in attack and don't waste chances. ”

In the second half, Leicester City did play a little conservatively.

This made West Brown even more hopeful of victory.

A number of young players pressed on the attack.

But soon he reaped the bitter fruits.

In midfield, Andy King was very positive today.

A couple of dribbles and passes were wonderful.

In the 67th minute, his diagonal cross tore through West Bromwich Albion's defence.

Kramaric stepped forward quickly and scored with a single shot!

2 to 1!

Leicester take the lead!

Eight minutes later, it was another breakthrough from Andy King on the left flank.

Albrighton behind him quickly stepped forward and played a one-two with him.

Eventually, Albrighton's pass found Conokette at the back post.

Konoket pushes it into the net in front of goal!

3 to 1!

Leicester scored two goals in a row, which brought West Brom to his senses.

Even if they play one less, they are not on the same level as this Leicester City.

Soon, Xia Xing's free kick pass helped teammate James volley from a small angle to score again.

4 to 1!

Leicester City's game is stable!

Excitedly, James rushed to Xia Xing again and hugged him tightly!

With three goals in two games in a row, James has been on a hot streak of late.

In the end, Leicester City beat West Brom 4-1 in this game and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup.

After the game, Xia Xing took the initiative to find West Brom captain Fletcher and exchange jerseys with him.

This Fletcher is not the Fletcher who left Leicester this winter, but the Fletcher of Manchester United.

As a midfielder from Manchester United's academy, Fletcher has experienced the Ferguson period and spent the peak of Manchester United.

This winter, he left Manchester United, where there was no place for him, to move to West Brom on a free transfer.

Looking at Xia Xing in front of him, he was extremely emotional.

"I hate Louis van Gaal, not because he didn't give me a chance, but because he let you go, he's a sinner at Manchester United!"

Looking at Fletcher's angry appearance, Xia Xing didn't know what to say for a while.

I thought about it.

"Senpai, I wish you all the best."

Turning to leave with Fletcher's jersey in hand, Fletcher shouted behind him.

"Xia, when you've had enough of playing outside, let's go home."

Xia Xing's footsteps paused for a moment, and soon continued to move forward.

For Manchester United, is it still your home?

I don't know.

What the future holds, let the future deal with......

Leicester City won the game and they won the game with another substitute line-up.

Quite a bargain.

Next, they can go all out for the next Europa League fixtures.

On March 11, at the St. Petersburg Stadium in distant Russia, Leicester City challenged Russian Premier League powerhouse Zenit.

Prior to this game, Pearson had made tactical arrangements for his players early on, as well as an analysis of the strength of the opponent.

Neck and neck.

This is Pearson's understanding.

There are quite a few similarities between the lineups of the two sides.

All have experienced veterans, all have talented midfielders, all have strong defenders, all have sharp strikers.

Zenit play a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Goalkeeper Lodkin.

Rear four Kristo, Garay, Neto, Smolnikov.

Twin midfielders Witsel and Javi Garcia.

Three forward midfielders Tymoshchuk, Shatov and Hulk.

Center Longdong.

This lineup alternates between old and new, and all positions are very practical.

There are no particularly big-name stars, but the overall strength of the team is balanced.

Xavi Garcia and Garay, both of whom have played for Real Madrid, are outstanding.

Timoshchuk used to be a Bayern mainstay and has a lot of experience.

The 25-year-old Witsel has excellent skills and is very good at passing and controlling.

Hulk, nicknamed the "Hulk", is super strong, impactful, and has a strong shot on goal.

Center Ryudan is also extremely impactful.

Facing such a well-balanced opponent, Leicester City is under a lot of pressure......
