After just one day's rest after the game against Tottenham, Leicester City had the second game of the Christmas Devils schedule.

Away from Hull City!

Hull City are currently bottom of the league.

Due to the grievances of last season's FA Cup semi-finals, coupled with the current grim relegation situation.

Even without Pearson's emphasis, the Leicester generals know it's a tough fight!

And considering that the main players played the whole game in the last game, Pearson also chose a wide range of rotations.

Except for Ling Feng, Ulloa and goalkeeper Hamer, the other players have basically changed!

Anyway, they don't have any relegation pressure, they just need to consider the fitness and competitive form of the players.

Therefore, in this away league, Pearson's only wish is to hope that the players will protect themselves and not get injured!

The first time they came to the banks of the Hull River in Yorkshire, before the team bus drove into the Kingston Communications Stadium, Ling Feng and the Leicester City generals felt the "enthusiasm" of the "Tigers" fans

Even through the window, Ling Feng in the car could see from the mouths of Hull City fans wearing yellow and black vertical striped jerseys that they were greeting them, their families, and even their ancestors for eighteen generations.

In this regard, Ling Feng, who is no longer a rookie in the Premier League, has an indifferent expression.

What he cares more about is that in today's game, he will meet a friend he hasn't seen for a long time

"Harry, long time no see!"

Yes.

After meeting the future British star Harry Kane in the previous round, this round, he met another "Harry"

That is the "British aircraft carrier" Harry Maguire ~~~

The last time the two met, it was in the FA Cup.

And now, both have come to a higher stage in the Premier League.

In the summer window, Harry Maguire moved to Hull City from Sheffield United for £2.5 million.

Jumping two levels in a row from League One to the Premier League, Hull City's offer was tempting.

It's definitely a big step forward for Maguire!

So, he accepted the opportunity without hesitation.

What's more, Hull City is also in Yorkshire, so he doesn't have to move at all, saving him a lot of trouble adjusting to his new life.

However, when he packed his bags and walked into the training base in Hull City with high expectations to start a new chapter in his career, he realized that the situation was not at all what he had imagined!

With Maguire's current level of competition, he is completely out of step with the manager's requirements.

Therefore, his position in the Hull City team can only be regarded as a reserve for the future.

The 'League One Champion', who once stood out in the FA Cup, did not get much playing time and was only able to come off the bench in the final moments of cup and league competitions to get a feel for the atmosphere of the Premier League.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to Maguire, Hull City also bought young Scottish full-back Andrew Robertson from Dundee United Football Club in the summer window!

It's a pity that Hull City not only continued the crotch-pulling attack this season, but even the defense that was originally quite good disappeared.

Since the start of the season, the league table has largely hovered on the edge of the relegation zone.

It is precisely because they are facing huge relegation pressure that they simply do not have much opportunity and margin for error to develop young players in the squad.

Even Robertson, the future Scotland captain and Liverpool's world-class winger, failed to sit in the main force and could only play a rotational role.

However, he is much better than Maguire, who is on the bench.

After exchanging words with Ling Feng in the players' tunnel, Maguire went straight to the bench on the field.

With the start of the game, Leicester City quickly took the initiative on the field under the leadership of Ling Feng.

And sitting on the bench, looking at Ling Feng running on the field, Maguire couldn't help but feel envious.

Nearly halfway through the season, he made his Premier League debut against Swansea City in the last round.

However, he was not in a hurry.

Although there is not much playing time for the time being.

But being able to train with other Premier League players has been a huge help to his development.

He firmly believes that as long as he trains hard and focuses on football, his own opportunities will come sooner or later.

Perhaps it was because both sides had a certain amount of rotation, and the players were particularly energetic on the pitch.

It is worth mentioning that in the face of Leicester City, Hull City, who once again faced the bitter host, Hull City adopted a very tough pressing strategy from the beginning!

Especially Ling Feng, who is the absolute core of Leicester City, has been taken care of by his opponents.

As soon as he gets the ball, the nearest Hull players rush up and give him intensity.

Anyway, it's all kinds of sliding shovels and upper hand pulling.

Only ten minutes into the game, Ling Feng's white pants had already become dirty and full of grass clippings.

Leicester's attack, on the other hand, was interrupted by Hull City's brutal fouls again and again.

The rhythm of the whole game has also become fragmented.

In the first half alone, Hull City committed a tally of 12 fouls, seven of which were directed at Ling Feng.

Four players received yellow cards!

It is conceivable that Hull City's tactics are that if you can't prevent it, I will foul!

It wasn't until the first half that it entered stoppage time, with Ling Feng's corner kick, Hull City fell into a scuffle in the penalty area.

In the end, Albrighton took advantage of the chaos to stab the goal and take a difficult lead on the road!

At halftime, Ling Feng, who was letting the team doctor relax his muscles, felt some discomfort in his calf muscles, so he casually mentioned it to the team doctor.

Upon examination, it was only a minor muscle strain.

Even if the [Anti-Injury Card] can allow Ling Feng to bounce the damage back to the opponent when he encounters an extremely serious malicious foul.

However, that doesn't mean his muscles won't get tired, or that he won't get injured from the fierce scramble.

And this one was brutally violated by the opponent in turn, and the muscles were only slightly strained, which was already considered his endurance.

Although Ling Feng said that he could insist.

However, Pearson, who was afraid that his eldest baby would be injured, immediately decided to replace Ling Feng to rest.

It doesn't matter if you lose the game, if you lose the core of the team, it will be worth the loss!

In the second half, after Ling Feng left the game, the situation on the field reversed instantly.

Hull City gradually took over the pace of the game.

However, Hull City's offensive ability is really too good.

Even after besieging the entire half, they failed to break through Leicester's goal.

And 0-1 is also the final result of the game.

After a hard-fought three points on the banks of the Hull, Leicester City have made a perfect end to their 2014!

The past year has definitely been one to be remembered by the club and thousands of fans.

At the beginning of the year, Leicester City's super youth talent midfielder Ling Feng was born!

Under the leadership of the 18-year-old, the Foxes went all the way through the league and cup competitions, winning both the Championship and FA Cup.

In addition to the successful promotion, it also entered the European war after many years.

And the team's performance after being promoted to the Premier League was also unexpected by everyone.

Not only that, in addition to playing a shocking offensive football in the Premier League, in the Europa League, the Blue Foxes also played a triumphant song, qualified from the group ahead of schedule, and entered the European knockout round in history!

It can be said that this year is the year that Leicester City really introduced themselves to English football and even world football.

Football experts, commentators, media, fans.

Through various channels, I know that in the small town of Leicester in the middle of England, there is such an ambitious and energetic team!

。。。

With the final league game of 2014 coming to an end, the Premier League is halfway through this season.

And the major media also conducted a half-way inventory of the Premier League on the last day!

Although they were held to a draw away from home.

However, the "madman" Mourinho's Chelsea still won the Christmas championship of the Premier League with 46 points without any suspense!

This season, with Chelsea joined by strong reinforcements such as Costa and Cesc Fabregas, coupled with Mu's law of two years, the Blues have been firmly at the top of the league table since the start of the season.

It is worth mentioning that since the first Premier League season in 92~93, in 22 seasons, ten Christmas champions have finally succeeded in winning the championship!

Chelsea have won the Premier League three times.

And two of them are two consecutive championships in the 04~05 and 05~06 seasons.

The Chelsea manager at that time was none other than Mourinho now!

In other words, Jose Mourinho's Chelsea will win the Christmas title once they win.

Then, the probability of winning the Premier League title in the end will be terrifying 100%!

Of course, Christmas Champions are not real champions.

The example of Liverpool losing the title at the end last season is still vivid, and the one who has the last laugh is the real winner.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are already as many as 12 points clear of third-placed Manchester United.

Therefore, in the eyes of many media, the only one who has a chance to stop Mourinho and this Blues is the defending champion "Blue Moon" Manchester City!

Even if the forward line has suffered a wave of injuries and has no strikers in recent rounds, Blue Moon still has Silva, Yaya Toure, Nasri and other fierce generals attacking the city.

In the seven league games before the nineteenth round, except for Leicester City's draw, Manchester City won the remaining six!

A wave of sprints has left them only five points away from Chelsea, who are firmly at the top of the Premier League.

Five points, nineteen games!

The jury is still out!!

In addition to the Premier League title race becoming a two-person turn, the competition for European qualification this season has also become extremely fierce with the emergence of several teams such as Leicester City, Swansea, and Southampton.

And the promoted Malicester City, which is still in third place after 16 rounds, has only won one win, one draw and one loss in the last three league games.

The ups and downs allowed Manchester United behind him to seize the opportunity to overtake Leicester City by one point and move to third place.

However, facing Arsenal, who are only fifth on goal difference, fourth-placed Leicester City are obviously a little trembling.

You know, the fourth place in the Premier League is Nana's exclusive seat.

Among the many year-end inventory, "The Times" focused on the promoted polo team that returned to the Premier League after ten years, Leicester City!

And with a very eye-catching title:

"Blue Fox Magic!"

If there is a vote for the most surprising team in the Premier League this season, Leicester City will definitely be voted unanimous.

As last season's Championship champion and FA Cup winner, this season's promotion horse was considered by most media and fans to be relegated before the start of the game.

However, after 19 rounds of league play, they are in a shocking fourth place in the league!

Behind them are a number of Premier League giants.

What is the magic of this team, which is ranked 17th in the league in terms of value?

This is a question that many people have in their hearts.

A number of football experts and special commentators in The Times have given their own answers.

And among many factors, it is inseparable from the performance of a player.

That is the absolute core of this blue fox, the nineteen-year-old British Emperor star and European golden boy - Ling Feng!

This season, Ling Feng made 17 league starts, contributing eight goals and 17 assists.

Seventeen assists, making him firmly at the top of the league's assists list, and also becoming the player who has delivered the most assists in the first half of the Premier League since its establishment!

In second place is Cesc Fabregas, who has 13 assists and has many years of experience in the Premier League.

Michael, the sports editor-in-chief of The Times, even directly asserted that the topic of whether Ling Feng can break the record of 20 assists in a single season held by Henry in the 02~03 season can be over!

Because, there is no suspense!

And eight league goals put him in seventh place on the scorer list with Wayne Rooney, Van Persie, Bony, Pelle and others!

And Ling Feng is also the midfielder with the most goals in the Premier League this season!

Scored 25 goals in 17 games, the most chances created in the league, the best in the league 10 times, and the best of the month once.

Such terrible data made the media exclaim, what kind of monster is this?!

They have never seen such a fierce Premier League rookie who has just debuted!

And it is worth mentioning that with a super fan of Ling Feng, he posted this paragraph on his Twitter:

Although I have not met the nineteen-year-old Maradona.

However, I had the privilege of meeting nineteen-year-old Ling Feng!

As this passage exploded and rushed to the hot search list, many fans played a stalk based on this sentence.

For example, "Although I haven't met nineteen-year-old Messi. But I had the privilege of meeting nineteen-year-old Ling Feng."

"Although I haven't met nineteen-year-old Ronaldo. But I had the privilege of meeting nineteen-year-old Ling Feng."

The team's outstanding performance, as well as his personal impressive statistics, led to Ling Feng being selected as the Premier League Half-way Team of the Year by Sky Sports.

and defeated Aguero, Yaya Toure, Costa, Hazard and other famous stars, and was elected the best player of the Premier League halfway!

Fifty percent of the voting system comes from the players' votes and 50 percent from the fans.

It is conceivable that in the eyes of other Premier League players and fans, Ling Feng's performance in the past half season is worthy of recognition.

In addition to Ling Feng, the team's coach Pearson also beat Mourinho, Pellegrini, Coman and other famous coaches, and was named the best manager in the half of the season.

In the eyes of many people, without much reinforcement in the summer window, Pearson can lead this promoted team to the top four in the league, which is definitely a great achievement!
