Chapter 17: White Hart Lane vs. Tottenham, Pochettino Collapses Again (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Beep!"

At half past two in the afternoon, in the stadium of White Hart Lane, a whistle sounded with the referee.

In the 21st round of the English Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur hosted Leicester City.

'At the start of the game, Tottenham took the lead in the centre circle and they got the first chance to kick off in the first half of the day.

"Let's take a look at the starting line-ups."

'Tottenham, goalkeeper Lloris, defenders from left to right, Ben Davies, Vertonghen, Alderweireld, Kyle Walker.

"The two midfielders are Dier and Tom Carroll, and the three defenders in front are Son Heung-min, Ali and Eriksen."

'Harry Kane, who is the Premier League's top scorer, is at the front and he's the biggest threat for this team.

“……”

In the commentary area, commentators from all over the world are hurriedly introduced to the audience in front of the TV.

Such an important competition has attracted a lot of attention around the world.

This game has too many buffs and too many highlights.

"We can see that Son Heung-min's expression today is very wrong, and he looks very eager to show himself in the game."

Park Zhengxin, a South Korean football commentator, captured Son Heung-min's expression from the beginning of the game and began to report it for the Korean audience in front of the TV.

"Maybe it's because of the pressure that Chen Yufeng has brought in the Premier League this year, including some domestic public opinion, which will affect his mood."

"We hope that this can be turned into motivation and adrenaline for his growth, rather than a side effect."

"I expect him to play a better performance than Chen Yufeng in this game and lead Tottenham to victory over Leicester City."

After Park Zhengsine's words fell, the barrage in the channel suddenly flew across the barrage of Korean fans.

It seems that they are also very serious about today's game.

"Sun Xingmin, hurry up! Hurry up and break through Leicester City's goal! ”

"Don't let that Chen Yufeng be arrogant anymore, we don't want to see that scene."

'Really, believe me, if you can score in this game and lead Tottenham to win, we won't say anything bad about you again.'

"Scoring goals is still the light of Asia! It's our pride! ”

"Kick well, don't let us down again!"

“……”

Since the game has just begun, they have not lost their expectations and disappointment with Son Xingmin, and the comments they have made are relatively normal.

If the result doesn't turn out to be what they wanted, that's really not necessarily the case......

On the pitch, the battle between the two sides has begun.

Tottenham's players showed up here today with positive faces, very quickly and very quickly up the tempo.

This is how they won before!

Take the rhythm into your own hands and firmly grasp the initiative!

Today at White Hart Lane, they are all very much looking forward to revenge on Leicester City!

Listening to the incessant shouts of the fans behind them, all the Tottenham players felt the adrenaline rush and desperately began to attack the Leicester backline.

They did get a good result in the first fifteen minutes of the opening game.

Fourth minute of the game.

Tottenham made a mistake through Son Heung-min's breakthrough cross.

Harry Kane, who was outflanked at the back post, almost had a chance to push into the empty net, but was intercepted by Danny Simpson just before the shot.

Six minutes later, Tottenham made a comeback.

This time I switched to the middle lane.

Eriksen, the world's top midfielder at his peak, used a volley to break through Leicester's central defence!

Son Heung-min plugged in at high speed on the side, gritting his teeth and chasing after the football.

"Bang!"

It's a pity that his final shot was blocked by Schmeichel Jr. and he didn't take advantage of the opportunity.

"Ah......h

Son Heung-min, who lost the opportunity, was very frustrated, covered his face with his jersey, and shouted.

It seems that he is indeed under the pressure of public opinion, and he very much wants to prove himself in this performance against Leicester City and Chen Yufeng.

"Bang!"

In the sixteenth minute of the game, Harry Kane's last long-range shot from the edge of the box hit an anti-aircraft gun.

Tottenham's three-pronged axe came to an official end as Leicester began to try to press outside the box.

On the pitchside, Pochettino's right hand rested on his chin and seemed very nervous.

Today, with more than 30,000 fans watching the home team, he didn't want to lose the game and couldn't afford to lose.

Don't look at the fans' support for the team before the game is very sufficient, but once Tottenham plays aggrieved or even loses on the field......

All kinds of reasons are superimposed, and countless saliva will drown him.

One more point......

Pochettino kept his eyes on Chen Yufeng, glancing at him from time to time.

He prayed in his heart that he couldn't let Chen Yufeng score in White Hart Lane today.

Once he scores, the Tottenham fans will still not let him go.

No matter what grievances and helplessness there are, everyone can only see an ironclad fact, it is he who personally fired Chen Yufeng and gave it to Leicester City.

This breath has been holding in the hearts of Tottenham fans, especially after Chen Yufeng's performance is getting better and better.

If it weren't for his good results in leading the team later this season, these gases would have been spilled out towards him a long time ago.

"Beep!"

In the 37th minute of the game, Riyad Mahrez's breakthrough against Kyle Walker resulted in a free kick about 35 meters from the goal.

The angle of the ball was too big to be a goalkeeper, but it was certainly a good opportunity to cross from a set-piece.

"Hutter, Morgan, go up!"

Ranjeli waved his hand from the sidelines, motioning for two high points to go up and try more of these free-kick opportunities.

Chen Yufeng came to the penalty spot, looking at Tottenham's penalty area, looking for weak points.

Actually, it's more about finding a feeling.

Whether a cross from a set-piece can be a threat or not is also determined by a lot of factors, not just passes.

He could only try to make the cross as fast as possible, with a wider arc and a better angle.

Not long after, as the referee's whistle sounded, Chen Yufeng raised his right hand high, signaled, and then began to run.

"Bang!!"

Soon, his right foot rubbed into the lower middle of the ball and he unleashed a very fast cross towards the middle.

Goalkeeper Lloris originally wanted to attack, but when he saw the sharp arc of the football, he began to retreat towards the goal again.

As he retired, Hut, the Chelsea outcast who had been quietly contributing to Leicester's backline, suddenly rose into the air and shook his head at the goal.

"Bang!"

The ball was smashed to the ground by Hutter, and after a bounce, it bounced quickly towards the goal.

Due to a mistake in judgment at the beginning, Lloris at this time was not prepared for anything in the retreat, and made a symbolic jump to watch the football go into the net.

“Yeah!”

After the goal, Hutter waved his arms excitedly and rushed towards Tottenham's corner flag area, shouting frantically at the fans in the stands.

It was his first goal of the season, and I didn't expect it to come so quickly and so suddenly!

And it was played in this kind of important duel with Tottenham Hotspur!

The Leicester fans in the stadium were also pleasantly surprised by Huter's goal and burst into cheers.

All the team members rushed to Hute to celebrate.

"Bang!"

Pochettino, on the sidelines, angrily kicked the water bottle at his feet and made up a few more kicks in frustration.

"This damn set-piece defence! Damn it! ”

Pochettino's mentality is a bit of an explosion.

If you were beaten through the defence by a wave of Leicester City and finally scored, maybe he wouldn't be so uncomfortable.

But if this is the case, the opponent directly breaks the goal with a free kick with an accidental attribute, it is really a feeling of eating!

Obviously they played better in the first half!

Why Leicester City scored first!

Pochettino gritted his teeth and complained about the damn football.

Moreover, the player who sent out a free kick assist this time is Chen Yufeng again!

This former Tottenham outcast!

He soon felt the eyes of countless Tottenham fans behind him cast on him, which made him feel a little cold sweat rising on his back, and a little hairy feeling.

On a football field with a huge capacity, it is best to be the one who enjoys the cheers and pursuits, otherwise the death gaze and scolding of tens of thousands of people will definitely be another kind of sourness......

Pochettino already felt that way at this point.

The only thing to be thankful for is that Chen Yufeng has not scored yet, otherwise tens of thousands of scolding will begin.

Dressed calmly and calmly, Pochettino clapped his hands and encouraged the players on the field, "Don't be discouraged children! It's okay! ”

"You have to defend well, don't give them this chance again, and the foul should be farther away!"

"Come on, you can do it!"

After saying this, he seemed to be unable to stand the stares of the fans, and turned back to the coach's seat and sat down.

Leicester's celebrations ended soon and all the players returned to their positions before the referee blew the whistle for the resumption of the game.

The trailing Tottenham players then stepped up the tempo of their attack, pressing all three of their lines and launching a fierce siege on Leicester City.

All Tottenham players are hoping to draw the score as quickly as possible by overdrawing their fitness.

In fact, it's a somewhat risky way to play.

If this period of overdraft physical fitness is not effective, they will most likely collapse in the second half of the second half.

And it is true, N'Golo Kante, who has now gradually grown into one of the Premier League's top midfielders, covers a very terrifying area.

In the middle of the field, or even the entire second half, Leicester City's defense was very airtight.

Unless it's a cross for a half-ball, or a long-range shot.

Tottenham couldn't find too many attacking opportunities.

"Bang!"

In the second minute of first-half stoppage time, as Harry Kane hit a long-range shot like a gas, Schmeichel Jr. only moved his position slightly and hugged the football in his arms.

The Tottenham players, who have not been able to attack for a long time, have begun to be anxious.

And just when the referee glanced at the time and found that there were still more than ten seconds, he hesitated to blow the whistle.

Schmeichel quickly raced towards the line of the penalty area with the ball in his arms, and after turning his head left and right to take a look, he threw it hard and threw it at the feet of Drinkwater.

Brother Drinking Water stopped the ball and turned around, and quickly stepped on the ball and began to advance.

A quick counterattack belonging to Leicester City began......

Today's seventh watch, ask for a monthly pass!!
