With Ling Feng's pass, Leicester City ended a fantastic first half at the Britannia Stadium.

In the second half, Stoke City coach Mark Hughes immediately adjusted his tactics and directly played a simple and rough long pass.

Even with the interference of Morgan and Moore, Crouch, a tall shooter who is more than two meters tall, repeatedly grabbed the first landing point, and then played the ball to his teammates, forming several shots.

However, Ben Hammer, who started in place of Schmeichel Jr., was very excited and kept shots out one by one.

Although the number of shots on goal increased, it was still unable to find the back of the net for Leicester City.

As time went by, gradually, the Stoke players began to become impatient, and their hands and feet became more and more numerous.

Maybe it's the bias of the home whistle, or maybe the penalty is relatively lenient, and the referee's inaction has made the Stoke City players more and more unscrupulous.

And Ling Feng, the core of Leicester City, has become a frequent target!

Ling Feng also felt the sudden increase in the intensity of the opponent, and he did not dare to slack off, and began to reduce the time of holding the ball, and tried to kick the ball out as much as possible.

Until the seventy minutes of the game, seeing Ling Feng pulling the ball and turning around and being tackled to the ground by Xiao Cross on the spot, Pearson, who has always been calm on the sidelines, couldn't stand it anymore!

Made, dare to shovel my darling?!

I saw him take an arrow step, kill the side of the fourth official, and protest in a deep voice:

"Hey! Did you see it, it's a dangerous move! ”

In the face of the angry Pearson, the fourth official was stunned at first, raised his hand slightly and pressed down, and said with relief:

"Take it easy, the referee sees it."

This very obvious foul finally made the referee blow the whistle.

I saw him trotting to the "crime scene" and directly showed Xiao Cross a Topaz God of War card!

This flying tackle did not tackle the ball, but directly overturned Ling Feng's whole person, thus interrupting the advance of Leicester City's attack.

The yellow card is not unjust at all.

Lying on his side on the turf, Ling Feng locked his eyebrows, his expression slightly painful.

[Anti-Damage Card] did not trigger.

It can be seen that Shawcross's sliding tackle is not a malicious foul.

It was simply that Ling Feng was faster than him and took the ball forward, causing Shawcross's sliding tackle to slow down by half a beat.

Even so, Ling Feng still felt a burning pain in his calf, so he had to rub it vigorously to relieve the pain as much as possible.

Seeing this, Pearson on the sidelines immediately waved his hand to the team doctor and let him in.

Seeing that the team doctor sprayed Ling Feng with painkiller spray on his calf, Shakespeare, another assistant coach of the Blue Foxes, immediately came to Pearson's side and suggested in a low voice:

"Nigel, we'd better replace Ling, don't get hurt!"

'If we go down, we will definitely have a big drop in control in the midfield, which will give up the ball to the opposition.

"Let Wood go up and play a double center forward with Ulloa, then pull the two wings back near the center circle line and play a long pass directly behind them!"

Hearing this, Pearson also felt a little reasonable.

Already two goals ahead, they also have the capital to rotate and adjust.

Although there were twenty minutes left in the game, the opponent had enough time to equalize the score and even overtake.

However, compared to the victory in this game, he was more concerned about whether Ling Feng was injured or not!

If Ling Feng is injured, it will affect more than just a league game.

And, just a few days later, they have to travel to Warsaw for the historic first round of the Europa League group stage.

As the core of the team and the top name, Ling Feng can't be absent!

So, he made a quick decision and immediately warmed up with substitute striker Chris Wood.

Then through the communication headset, let the team doctor on the field drag a little more time, which can drag a few seconds is a few seconds.

Two minutes later, Leicester City made a direct substitution!

When Ling Feng, who was covered in grass clippings, limped off the field, Pearson immediately greeted him and asked with concern, "Ling, are you okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

Facing the head coach's concern, Ling Feng smiled slightly, "It's okay, it's just that I was bumped and my calf hurt a little." ”

Hearing this, Pearson's hanging heart finally relaxed.

"Well, I'll do a detailed examination when I get back. Well done, let's go and rest first! ”

"Okay."

After replacing Ling Feng with substitute center forward Chris Wood, Leicester City changed the formation to 442, and like Stoke City, played the traditional British tactic - long pass and hang!

For a while, the ball flew around in the sky above the Britannia Stadium non-stop, rarely landing.

Both sides opted to hoist the ball directly from the back or from the flanks to the front, allowing the centre-forwards to fight for their chances.

At the heart of the long pass and hanging tactics requires the center forward's individual ability to be outstanding.

Able to carry the opponent's defender, or push forward like a tank to complete the shot; Or like a tower, make a ball for your teammates.

And the most perfect center forward template for long pass rushing tactics is the "Warcraft" Drogba during the Chelsea period!

However, compared with Stoke City's single arrow, the thirty-three-year-old "tall guy" Crouch, Leicester City's double center forwards Ulloa and Wood are younger and more impactful!

Although both are high-school strikers, Ulloa is not slow to move in front of goal.

Wood mainly grabbed the first lob of the ball, while Ulloa played next to him and then waited for an opportunity to shoot.

The duo of the two highs turned over the sea at the back of Stoke City and created a lot of threats.

It also made Stoke City jealous and did not dare to completely press the attack.

It wasn't until the referee blew the final whistle that Stoke City couldn't find the back of the net guarded by Foxes No.2 goalkeeper Ben Hammer.

The score of 2-0 was maintained until the final whistle.

He can beat the defending champions in an upset at the Etihad or lose by two goals to the promoted side at his own home stadium.

Lack of consistency is the key to limiting Stoke City from going further in the table!

In particular, the lack of offensive strength in the front court still plagues Mark Hughes.

Their leading scorer, Crouch, has not been in good form and has not scored in four consecutive rounds since the start of the season.

And Bojan and Diouf, who have just joined, have not yet integrated into the team's system, plus Arnautovic, who can't score.

"Castle in the Sky" has many famous players, but they can't break through the opponent's goal

After the game, Ling Feng, who passed and shot, unsurprisingly won the best in the game!

However, due to some muscle pain, Ling Feng did not give a post-match interview.

However, this has made many reporters nervous.

At the press conference, a Sky Sports reporter also immediately asked about Ling Feng's situation.

As the hottest British star in the Premier League and England, Ling Feng is almost the best of all English players in his age group at present.

Not one of them!

While most of the players of the same age are still working hard for their playing time, Ling Feng has become the absolute core of the English Premier League team Leicester City, the team's thigh!

In the eyes of many people in English football, as long as Ling Feng grows at the current rate, he will inevitably become the core of the midfield that will lead the Three Lions to a new era!

They certainly don't want to see Ling Feng affect his career development because of injuries.

This is a huge loss for the Premier League and for the Three Lions!

In the face of the concern of reporters, Pearson also told the truth:

"He's fine, he just feels a little uncomfortable in his muscles, and we'll have a good check-up when we get back."

After beating Stoke City and winning his second league game of the season, Ling Feng did not forget to take a photo with Ulloa, who also made a pass and shot in the dressing room, and then posted it on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

It is worth mentioning that since being promoted to the Premier League, Ling Feng has found that his social media fans have risen rapidly.

At least two or three times faster than when I was in the Championship!

He researched it and found that every time he played a league, his fan count would skyrocket.

He has reason to believe that it is because of his performance on the field that he has conquered the opponent's fans and made them his fans!

As of September 14, Twitter plus Ling Feng's total social media followers exceeded 8 million.

More than 5 million on Twitter, 1 million on Facebook, and more than 1 million on Instagram.

Especially INS, the world's largest social platform for selfies.

Although the account has only been created for more than a month, most of the users are young people under the age of 30, and the daily frequency of use is high.

Coupled with the fact that Ling Feng is similar to them, they have a sense of closeness to their peers, making his fan growth rate like a rocket.

Although it is not as good as Melo's more than 100 million social media fans, it is not as famous as Bale, who joined Real Madrid in the Premier League, Neymar, the new leader of the Samba Army, and Ronaldo, who was born in the World Cup in Brazil.

However, the number of his social media fans is the most among all English players, second only to the retired Xiaobei, Shuangde and Lu Xiaopang, ranking fifth!

This is enough to prove how popular he is in England!

is getting closer and closer to 10 million followers on social media.

According to the previous system rewards, every time the number of fans reaches 10,000, 100,000, or million, an achievement can be completed.

Then, when the social media followers exceed 10 million, he will definitely be able to get the corresponding rewards.

He is looking forward to this.

What the hell will be the reward for tens of millions of fans.

。。。

Taking the team bus back to the Belvo base, Pearson immediately asked the team doctor to conduct a detailed examination of Ling Feng.

And the results are encouraging:

Ling Feng didn't have anything to do!

It could be played in the opening game of the Europa League in a few days!

After completing the physical examination, everyone went back to their homes with a relaxed mood

Next.

Half past eight in the morning.

Ling Feng arrived at the Belvo base in his black Land Rover.

However, when he changed into a long-sleeved training uniform, came to the base canteen, and enjoyed a hearty breakfast, the club's marketing staff found him.

"Ling, after you finish breakfast later, go to the media room with Jamie and Riad to shoot something."

"Shoot what?"

"A small clip of helping FIFA promote, the specific process, you will know later."

Hearing this, Ling Feng nodded, as if he understood or not.

As one of the two giants of soccer games, the new generation of FIFA15 will be officially released next week.

In order to sell, of course, it is necessary to link up with real clubs and stars and increase publicity.

When Ling Feng finished breakfast and arrived at the media room on time, he found that Vardy and Mahrez were already inside.

A camera, aimed at three shelves.

On each shelf, there is a player card printed with a photo of Ling Feng's three people's heads.

Looking at his player card, Ling Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

It's handsome!

"Hey guys"

After greeting the two of them on their shoulders, Ling Feng immediately asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Vardy shrugged his shoulders and explained:

"FIFA sent us player cards, and then the club was going to let us take a small clip and guess each other's player ratings and stats."

"Oh, I see."

Both Ling Feng and Mahrez showed expressions of sudden realization.

"Did you shoot it last year?"

"No, probably because we were promoted to the Premier League this year, everyone's ratings have gone up."

After a pause, Vardy turned his head to look at Ling Feng and joked: "Or maybe it's because you have too many fans, so you specially asked us to take a picture for publicity."

"Yes, I just saw it yesterday, and your INS has already had a million followers in less than two months!"

Riyad Mahrez joined the world's best-selling football game as early as FIFA 12, while Vardy joined it at FIFA 13.

The ratings of the two last year were not high, they were both in their sixties.

And Ling Feng is joining the game for the first time, and he is very much looking forward to seeing what the overall rating of the players that EA will give him.

According to FIFA's overall rating standards, only players with an overall rating of 74 or more will be considered a gold card.

An overall rating of 74 and below is a silver card.

Judging from the color of the three-player card alone, Vardy and Mahrez are both silver cards, and only Ling Feng is the only gold card.

This has actually revealed the general evaluation of the three people.

However, the three of them still packed up the little Jiujiu in their hearts and faced the camera and started shooting.

The FIFA player card has six values, which are speed, dribbling, shooting, passing, defending, and body.

"Guys, first let's guess how fast Vardy is, shall we?"

Faced with this question, Ling Feng took the lead in responding:

"At least eighty-five!"

"I think so too, at least eighty-five."

"Jamie, what do you think of yourself?"

Touching his chin, Vardy said confidently:

"I was only seventy-five last season, and I think this season, EA should have seen that my speed was more than that low. I think eighty-eight is about the same."

"Eighty-eight? Are you the fastest player on the team? ”

"Of course not, the fastest guy on the team is the guy next to me."

With that, Vardy pointed to Ling Feng beside him.

This answer surprised the FIFA operator a little.

In his impression, whether it is in the World Cup or the Premier League, Ling Feng rarely makes long-distance sprints on the field.

But Vardy said he was the fastest player on the team?!

Could it be that he hides his strength?!

Secretly pressed the doubts in his heart, and the operation staff continued to ask questions.

With the question and answer, the three of them gag, Vardy and Mahrez's various values, as well as the overall evaluation of the player, were revealed one after another.

Vardy went from 67 in the previous version to 72;

Mahrez, on the other hand, has risen from 68 in the previous version to 73.

As the main contributors to Leicester's Championship and FA Cup double last season, both have risen by five points.

In the end, it was Ling Feng's turn.

Holding his silver card, and then looking at Ling Feng's gold card, Vardy's tone was full of sourness:

"Gold card, it's just different."

What surprised the three of them was that thanks to his amazing performance in the World Cup and the Premier League, Ling Feng's overall FIFA player rating reached an astonishing eighty!

And he is also the only player in Leicester City team to reach an overall rating of 80!
