Chapter 228: Vardy leaves, Blue Fox is in danger

At the beginning of the second half, West Ham United made personnel changes, with center forward Carroll replacing midfielder Obiang to increase the attacking advantage and fulcrum tandem.

Amenik was unable to flank forward after dropping back under Hut's defence, and West Ham had to make changes up front.

Payet returned to the midfield position and was in charge of the assault organization.

With the duo's strong central axis in front of the field as a point of firepower, the rest of West Ham's players were able to receive the ball and attack the Lyrcester penalty area along the flank.

In the 48th minute, Payet split the ball in the middle, and Emenik on the left side of the penalty area shot into the far corner, and the ball suddenly fell after crossing Schmeichel's ten fingers, hitting the net above the goal, shocking the home fans into a cold sweat.

Ranieri stood on the sidelines, one hand on his hips, the other pointing at Payet and Kante's name on his lips.

Kante understood it, and the two French fellows once again started an offensive and defensive duel.

This season, due to N'Golo Kante's outstanding performance at Lyicester City, he was noticed by the national team manager Didier Deschamps and called up to the national team.

In the two international friendlies in March, N'Golo Kante performed well, scoring a goal and basically confirming the squad for this summer's European Championships.

There is no competition between Payet and his position in the national team, but the duel between the two has attracted special attention.

Rossi, who retreats from the position of second striker, is ready to receive the ball and launch a fast attack.

It's also an affirmation and trust in N'Golo Kante's defensive ability.

In the 54th minute, Payet won the ball on the left rib, and Kante defended it for the first time.

Since the two began to talk directly, Payet has not shaken off his fellow defence, although there have been a few forced breakthroughs and passes, but the effect is not good.

Riyad Mahrez had to be involved on the counter-attack at all times, and the midfield looked thin defensively.

In order to further solidify the defence on the flanks, Lyicester City made a personnel change, with Schlupp coming on to replace Albrighton.

Schlupp can play a defensive role on the flanks and can also play in midfield.

In the 55th minute, Schlupp, who had just come on the field, completed the package of Payet with his teammates in the middle.

Kante saw the moment and made a sideways tackle to poke the ball out.

Schlupp split the ball and Drinkwater passed to Rossi to break through the West Ham midfield defence again.

Jamie Vardy was already kicking off in the early stages, slotting in the space between full-back and centre-back, latching on to Rossi's pass and sprinting towards the opposition box.

Centre-back Reid was desperately trying to catch up, but with Rossi's pass and Jamie Vardy's pace, he couldn't keep up.

Only destroy the ball before the opponent receives it.

With a decisive tackle, Reid's right foot touched the ball first and then to Vardy's leg, tripping him to the ground.

Vardy fell to the ground but did not hear the referee's whistle and hammered the turf in displeasure.

There were also bursts of boos at the King Power Stadium.

West Ham switched from defending to attacking, and Moses dribbled the ball on the wing, but was also tackled by Schlupp to the ground.

The smell of gunpowder on both teams was strong, and the tackle did not hesitate.

After the break, Rossi received the ball on a drop back and knocked it back to defender Hut.

He did this to stabilize the nervous tensions of the players.

West Ham also used the time to settle into defence.

As soon as Lyicester City's attack was pushed past half-time, the opponent's pressing began.

Schlupp and Moses bumped into each other as they grabbed the ball, but the referee didn't blow it.

Centre-back Hutter, picks the ball forward.

Rossi runs sideways to the right and pulls away the defence, allowing Jamie Vardy to form a 1v1 with the centre-back.

Reed, who has a yellow card, makes a decision in an instant and switches defenses with his teammates.

He went to mark Rossi without the ball, and teammate Ogbonna defended the ball carrier.

Ogbonnaka blocked the interference on Jamie Vardy's breakaway line.

After Vardy burst into the penalty area, he found that he could not shake off the entanglement of his opponent, so he took a step to the right and stuck his position, but he did not expect his right foot to be tripped by the opponent and fell in the penalty area.

Drip!

The referee blew the whistle.

This time, Jamie Vardy fell solid in the box.

Referee Jonathan ran towards the scene of the incident, but pointed his right hand at the attacking goal.

Fake falls?

The players at Lyrcester are crazy.

It was clearly a foul from behind the West Ham defender, how could it be a fake fall by Vardy?

Vardy, sitting on the ground, holding his head in disbelief, was simply unjust.

Not only that, Jonathan also showed Vardy a yellow card.

Two yellows turned into one red and sent Vardy off the pitch.

Angry, Vardy bounced off the ground, pointed his finger at the referee, and kept swearing in his mouth, angrily denouncing injustice.

Rosie hurriedly hugged him to the side and said, "Jamie, you do this, but you will have to add a suspension." ”

Despite his reluctance, Vardy was furious and said: "I didn't fake a fall, he did hit me. ”

"Now even if you scold all over again, it's useless, calm down first, otherwise, it won't be a suspension."

Reassured by Rossi, Vardy walked off the pitch in a huff.

As he passed through the coaching area, Ranieri looked firmly at the field, put his right hand around him, and whispered, "Jamie, rest well, and leave it to them next." ”

West Ham saw hope after being sent off and manager Bilic used the remaining two substitutions in the 60th minute.

Lanzini replaces Noble and Enner Valencia replaces Moses.

The appearance of the two gave the team a speed up in the front, suppressed the Lyicester City defence, and forced Mahrez to move to the defence.

Then there is only one person left in the front end, and it is difficult to use the individual combat ability to overcome the defense.

Claudio Ranieri is in desperate need of defence to stabilize the mentality of his players.

Decisive substitution of Amartey allowed him to fill in the back line, and the two full-backs were promoted to make it 3-5-1.

Removing Mahrez would mean that the only way to attack Lyster City would be to rely on Schlupp on the right and Rossi, a lone arrow.

West Ham are easy to defend against.

With one man less, Lyrcester City gave up their midfield to minimise control and reduce the physical exertion of the players.

West Ham United, who formed an offensive on the periphery, quickly and effectively formed a wave of attacks, overwhelming Ryicester City.

Ranieri thought that after abandoning the midfield, the players would be fully engaged in defending and would be able to effectively fend off the opposition's attack.

But he was wrong.

There are still more than 30 minutes before the end of the game, and in the face of the frequent impact of West Ham United, the loss of the players' mentality far exceeds the burden brought by the body.

Defending in a monolithic way, you can only be slaughtered by others, and it is difficult to play a quick counterattack with the current team configuration.

In the 75th minute, Lyicester City finally had a chance when N'Golo Kante struggled to get the ball out and handed it to Danny Drinkwater.

It was the first time since Jamie Vardy was sent off that Ryicester City had passed the ball across half pitch on their own side.

Drinkwater played a long ball straight into the space behind the West Ham defence.

Rossi accelerated to the sprint, but the ball flew too high, giving the opposition centre-back plenty of time to react and adjust, leaping high and feeding the ball over to his team-mate.

This counterattack, with a lack of excess in the middle and a disjointed midfield, exposed the weakness of Drinkwater's long-pass transfer and Rossi's weakness of standing on the front line to get the ball.

Once again, possession was back in West Ham.

The successive shocks made the rumors in front of the gate of Lyist, and Ranieri was also considering whether to remove Rossi and replace him with Ulloa.

In this way, at least the team has a high fulcrum at the front point when it turns to positional battles.

That's when West Ham were awarded a set-piece and Payet's shot flew into the box and Reid slid in from just outside the box.

Morgan, who was in charge of defense, couldn't catch up, and there was a hugging movement with both hands, and Reed fell to the ground.

Drip!

When the referee blew the foul whistle and pointed to the penalty spot, there was an exclamation in the King Power Stadium.

Many fans even jumped up from their seats, holding their heads in their hands, with stunned eyes, unable to describe their mood at this moment in words.

West Ham United's number one striker, Carroll, stands in front of the penalty spot.

Huge boos in the face of the home field.

run up

Left foot on the ground,

deceived the eyes of the goalkeeper,

Push the ball into the other corner of the goal.

[goal, the ball is in!] 】

[In the 84th minute of the game, West Ham United equalized the score through a penalty opportunity by their top scorer Carroll. 】

[Lyicester City's defense during this period of time was under too much pressure, and after withstanding the opponent's attack for 25 minutes, there was finally a flaw. 】

After the goal, Carroll excitedly rushed to the goal, scooped the ball out of the net and ran towards the centre circle.

He and his team-mates are confident that with less than ten minutes left, they will be able to score another goal.

Ranieri quickly called the assistant coach over and told him to prepare for the final substitution.

Ulloa up, Rossi down.

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
