Chapter 35: The Third Assist Arrives (Ask for Follow-up)

On the pitch, the minutes and seconds of the game passed.

Tottenham kept possession of the ball and kept moving quickly in an attempt to tear apart Leicester's defence.

However, Leicester City, who have been trained by Ranieri's chain defense, certainly have no intention of showing their flaws easily, and they firmly control their position and do not allow Tottenham to find a breakthrough.

At the same time, Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez are always watching the gaps in Tottenham's backline, ready to move forward quickly at the chance of counter-attacking.

Twenty-fourth minute of the game.

Tottenham were again in vain in a somewhat torturous attacking position.

Tottenham midfielder Lamela, who received the opponent's clearance ball on the periphery, even ended the positional attack with a somewhat reckless anti-aircraft gun.

Slowly, they became a little anxious.

"Tottenham still can't find too good opportunities, and new signing Son Heung-min doesn't seem to have adapted to the team's rhythm after coming to the team, and the run-in with his teammates is not very good."

"In this game, he didn't have many chances to catch the ball, so he didn't have much room to play."

In the Sina Sports studio, Zhan Jun has been explaining to the audience in front of the TV screen.

This Premier League focus battle, the derby battle in the hearts of Asian fans, has a very large number of viewers.

So far, more than 1.6 million fans and viewers have poured into the live broadcast room, looking forward to Chen Yufeng's performance in this game.

"Let's take a look at this offense."

"Harry Kane, header to Son Heung-min, he got past Delaette, crossed!"

"Morgan has cleared the ball out of the way, and even Harry Kane, one of the Premier League's top goalscorers who have suddenly emerged in recent years, will find it difficult to take advantage of his high ball battles."

"Tottenham's corner, Son Heung-min stood in front of the penalty spot."

"It's still Morgan, he threw the ball out!"

"Leicester's counter-attacking chance!"

As Zhan Jun's voice became more and more excited, the fans in the live broadcast room also frantically sent a barrage, and some small gifts were endless, flashing on the screen.

They are still very enthusiastic about this game, and they all hope to see Chen Yufeng's wonderful performance.

on the football field.

Leicester City midfielder Andy King received Morgan's clearance ball, and he turned the ball on the first hand and quickly took the ball towards midfield.

Tottenham's attacking staff was too aggressive, leaving their midfield very empty, with only one player left, Dier, who was not very fast.

There's a lot of space, and Dell's turn is notoriously slow.

"Bang!" Almost without any hesitation, Andy Kim kicked forward and brushed Dale directly.

At the back, Tottenham's back four is still relatively neat, and it seems that Pochettino has explained to them before the game that they must guard against counterattacks.

"Keep an eye on Vardy, Vertonghen!"

Alderweireld shouted at his team-mates and waved for Kyle Walker on the wing to follow Mahrez.

"Fill in behind me, Ben Davis!"

After taking command, he himself pressed forward, trying to force Andy King to slow down.

This position can not be carried any further, and a few more steps will be within range.

As a defensively aware centre-back, Alderweireld did a good job this time, both in terms of command and selection.

Judging from the counterattack, Leicester City does have a lot of threat points in the front, and at this time, putting Andy King to pass the ball to their right midfielder Chen Yufeng is actually the best choice.

Alderweireld, of course, had been instructed by Pochettino before the game that their former team-mate now seemed to have undergone a radical change and had a very sharp cross.

But if it's a one-on-one chance by Riyad Mahrez and Vardy, that's the real problem.

Once a breakthrough is formed, the door will be wide open.

However, if you want to say whether he has downplayed Chen Yufeng's threat in his heart, there must still be it.

After all, they have been together for so long before, and this player has not shown too much brilliance.

Now suddenly it has changed......

Alderweireld wouldn't have believed much until he saw it with his own eyes.

"Bang!" As he expected, Andy King did not choose to fight him, but directly passed the ball to Chen Yufeng on the side.

"Pay attention to the cross and get in place quickly!"

Alderweireld quickly turned and ran back into his position, ready to defend the cross.

"Bang!"

Sure enough, as he expected, Chen Yufeng's cross came as promised, and smashed towards the penalty area with a violent spin.

The ball is fast and the spin is good!

This was Alderweireld's first reaction, his face was indeed a little shocked, and he felt the threat brought by Chen Yufeng for the first time in his heart.

It's something he's never felt like he'd ever felt before when he was a teammate.

In this way, it is indeed understandable that he played that kind of stat in the Premier League!

An excellent cross, the assist efficiency is really strong!

As for Alderweireld's second reaction......

"Rear point!"

Realizing that he had risen to the top, he turned his head back in horror.

He then saw his partner Vertonghen also rise to the top, with the ball falling in the ribs.

And that is the position that Mahrez has been looking forward to for a long time.

"Falk ......"

A panicked wail rang out in Tottenham's penalty area.

After Mahrez unloaded the ball perfectly with his chest, the outcome of this ball seemed to be preordained.

"Bang!"

A powerful volley rang out and Mahrez slammed the ball into the French international Lloris without giving it a chance.

With his outstanding ball sense, he will not have any problems at all in the face of such close distance.

“Yeahhhh……!!”

The moment the ball touched the net, a roar erupted over the entire King Power Stadium, and all the Leicester fans rose from their seats and raised their arms and chanted.

It was the first time they had a chance in this game that they threatened the Tottenham goal, and they didn't expect to score!

This is simply a pleasant surprise!

After all, the opponent in this game is not Sunderland or West Ham United, but the title favourites Tottenham!

"Beautiful! Pretty! ”

Ranieri on the sidelines also waved his arms a few times, with a very happy smile on his face.

That's exactly what he's always been based on in football, simple and quick counter-attacks.

As a team that is relatively weak on paper, they have to try to take advantage of the few opportunities they have in each game.

Only then will they be able to score more goals and avoid relegation for the club earlier!

On the field, after the goal, Mahrez pointed to Chen Yufeng, shook his head and came to Chen Yufeng's side, and hugged Chen Yufeng with a high five, as if thanking him for his pass.

After that, Mahrez rushed to the sidelines and made a heart-to-heart gesture towards the fan zone, which he promised his girlfriend before the game.

He was sure his girlfriend would be able to see it.

The Leicester crowd was in a frenzy, and everyone had a different way of expressing their feelings.

"The ball is in! Chen Yufeng sent another assist! Leicester's counter-attack was too efficient! ”

Zhan Jun in the Sina Sports live broadcast room couldn't hide his excitement, and said in a trademark hoarse voice: "Who would have imagined that Leicester City, which had less than 35% possession in the first half of the game, scored the first goal in this game!" ”

'1-0, they're ahead of Tottenham Hotspur! This is something that no one thought of before the game! ”

"Tottenham's form does look very bad, and Leicester City, they have carried their efficiency into this game!"

"Congratulations to them, and congratulations to Chen Yufeng for scoring the third assist of his career in this game!"
