The East Midlands, east of Central England.

There are three teams playing in the Championship in this region: Leicester City, Derby County and Nottingham Forest.

Compared to Leicester City and Derby County, Nottingham Forest is the most famous team in the entire region, and indeed in the whole of England.

Nottingham Forest Football Club not only has a long history, but also has a glorious time that people will never forget.

In the 1977~78 season, under the leadership of legendary coach Brian Clough, Nottingham Forest won the League One championship as a promoted horse.

This is the first time in the history of professional football that a club team has won the league title as a promoted horse!

It is almost 20 years earlier than the "Kaiserslautern miracle" that is well known to the majority of fans.

In addition to creating the miracle of winning the championship in the domestic arena, Nottingham Forest's brilliant record in the European arena is still incredible.

In the 1978~79 season, Nottingham Forest, which competed in the European Champions Cup for the first time, was invincible in the European Champions Cup, defeating one opponent after another, and finally won the Big Ears Cup for the first time!

The following year, Nottingham Forest reached the final of the European Champions League again.

In the final, Nottingham Forest defeated the Hamburg team led by Kevin Keegan, the 1980 European Footballer of the Year, to achieve two consecutive European Champions League titles!

It is worth mentioning that this Nottingham Forest team has also created a terrifying record of 42 unbeaten games in the English league.

It wasn't until the unbeaten Arsenal side of the 21st century that broke that record.

However, since the Premier League restructuring in 1992, Clough left the team and Nottingham Forest slowly reverted to mediocrity.

After being promoted back to the Championship in the 2007~08 season, Nottingham Forest has been working hard in the Championship.

However, compared to other teams in the Championship, Nottingham Forest can be regarded as an ancestor.

After all, not all teams have two Champions League trophies...

Therefore, many Nottingham Forest fans are very unhappy that their ranking in the Championship is below Leicester City's neighbours.

Of course, they are even more reluctant to be the backdrop for Leicester to set a new record for consecutive Championship wins.

In their opinion, our Forest is a team that has won the Champions League twice in a row, what kind of champion are you Leicester City?!

。。。

Two hours before the game, Leicester City's team bus arrived in Nottingham.

Sitting on the moving team bus, even if Ling Feng was wearing headphones and music was playing inside, it was difficult to hide the noise coming from the car window.

Look out the window.

I saw many fans wearing red jerseys, waving red flags and scarves, with hideous faces.

Noticing that Ling Feng looked over, these forest fans invariably raised their middle fingers, and while greeting them, they didn't forget to shout slogans in their mouths:

"Forest, win!"

"Go back, stinky foxes!"

"Boy, go back to your mother's arms and cry!"

In the face of the insults and international gestures of the Forest fans, Ling Feng couldn't help but chuckle.

Well, the expected enthusiasm!

I wonder if these Forest fans will be as enthusiastic as they are now after the end of the game...

Warmly welcomed by the Forest fans, the team bus slowly pulled into the parking lot of the City Stadium.

The players got out of the car and walked briskly into the away dressing room on the pitch.

As soon as he put down his backpack, Ling Feng was called out of the locker room by the assistant coach.

Coming to the corridor outside the locker room, head coach Pearson said, "Ling, you and I are going to the press conference." ”

Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but be stunned.

"Me? Press conference? ”

"That's right, it's you."

Normally, the pre-match press conference is attended by the head coach and the captain of the team.

Of course, sometimes the core players of the team are also involved.

A month ago, Pearson thought that exposing young players like Ling Feng to the media too early would make a young player like Ling Feng lose himself.

A month later, Pearson still thinks so.

The reason why Ling Feng was allowed to participate in the pre-game press conference was completely his temporary intention.

The media has been hyping the importance of this match for the past few days.

Moreover, many people are questioning Ling Feng's ability to withstand pressure.

These reports made Pearson angry when he looked at them.

In the two FA Cup games against Premier League teams, Leicester City would not have progressed to the quarter-finals if it hadn't been for Ling Feng resisting the pressure and delivering a lethal pass.

Moreover, since the FA Cup was born, Ling Feng has been pressed by opponents in almost every game.

Under constant pressure to press, he has lost possession less than five times per game.

The media actually said that his ability to resist pressure is not good?!

If you don't need your eyes, you can donate them!

Therefore, he decided to let Ling Feng participate in the pre-competition press conference and support his proud disciple with practical actions!

Moreover, according to Ling Feng's performance in several post-game interviews, he also felt that this young man who was only eighteen years old was very decent and generous.

Of course, for fear that Ling Feng would talk nonsense at the press conference, Pearson did not forget to tell Ling Feng:

"You can just do the post-match interview later, don't be nervous."

"If you have a question that you can't answer, you can kick my foot and let me answer it for you."

For the head coach's kindness, Ling Feng blinked, smiled and promised:

"No problem, Coach. I'll behave well. ”

The two then went to the press room.

When they saw Ling Feng following behind Pearson, the reporters in the newsroom seemed to smell the sharks that smelled the smell of blood donation, and immediately pressed the shutter frantically.

For a moment, the sparkle filled the room.

Ling Feng, who participated in the pre-match press conference for the first time, was almost blinded by the flashing lights.

Blocking his eyes with his hands, Ling Feng was able to sit down next to Pearson.

Under the auspices of the press officer, the press conference began.

After the reporters asked the two managers a few questions, a sports reporter from the BBC threw a somewhat professional question to Ling Feng:

"Question from the BBC."

"Ling, this is your seventh league game since you were promoted to the first team, and in the last six league games, you have contributed an astonishing stat of one goal and six assists. You've reached the top 10 assists list. ”

"But I see that your average shots per game is very low, does that mean that you are an assister who focuses on passing? Or is it the coach's arrangement? ”

In fact, Pearson gave Ling Feng a great deal of freedom in terms of tactics.

As well as having two midfielders wipe his butt for him, Pearson also encouraged him to step forward a little more, receiving crosses and inverted triangles from both sides to shoot a second shot.

It's just that Ling Feng won't step forward every time, but chooses to pass the threatening ball and let Vardy or Mahrez complete the final blow.

After thinking about it, Ling Feng replied:

'As a midfielder, I enjoy giving assists to my team-mates more than scoring goals myself.

Yes.

He likes assists, and it's definitely not because he doesn't shoot well enough that he doesn't dare to hit the goal too much!

"Of course, when the opportunity comes, I will not hesitate!"

Archery is such a thing, some of which rely on talent, and some of which rely on long-term training and study.

And with the system, Ling Feng has infinite possibilities.

Of course, it is not something that can be achieved overnight to improve his marksmanship to the level of Vardy.

Therefore, the best way to play at the moment is to use your best passing to help the team's forward line create threats and even score goals, so that the team can open the door to victory.

Then, through training and competitions, as well as achieving systematic achievements, etc., you can slowly improve your other abilities.

As an offensive player's four skills, passing and shooting, his passing has been at the full level.

The next step is to focus on improving your stopping skills.

The meal should be eaten one bite at a time, and the road should be taken step by step.

The steps are too big, and it's easy to pull the eggs...
