Chapter 12: Chen Yufeng's yellow card, the game is coming to the end (asking for a monthly ticket)
"Beautiful!"
In front of the Leicester City coach's seat, Ranieri, who was rarely dressed in black sports short sleeves, raised his arms and hugged several assistant coaches next to him excitedly.
"It's so handsome! What a barb! Odegaard was also very excited, as if he had scored the goal, and high-fived Achraf in celebration.
"It's 2-0, and the championship is one step closer." Ben Chilwell didn't know who to turn to to celebrate, so he had to find another new signing in the squad, Klose, and was desperate for the World Cup winner to give him a reply.
In this moment of joy, everyone wants someone to share with.
"yes, he's really good, it's an honor to be teammates with such a veteran." Klose would of course reply to him, he had treated everyone here as his own family.
"We must usually find him to learn more." Chilwell looked very happy and reached out to shake Klose's hand.
"Definitely, let's do it together." Klose smiled and touched the youngster's head and gave encouragement.
In front of Leicester City's goal line, Kaspa Schmeichel was also very excited at this time.
The first step in that goal was when he saved Wayne Rooney's penalty and then found Riyad Mahrez with a long ball.
It was undoubtedly a highlight moment for the goalkeeper.
"Busy! Go ahead! ”
Schmeichel jumped on the billboard behind him and waved to the Leicester fans in the stands, wanting them to cheer even louder.
"Ohhhhhh......" Leicester fans were quick to reply to him, encouraging the goalkeeper, who is now a big player.
Everything seemed to be tilted in Leicester's favour, and Manchester United's red faded again.
Rooney fell to his knees, unable to accept his mistake.
The moment he saw Chen Yufeng's barb goal, his heart was completely cold.
This is to use his most classic way to shatter all his efforts in this match.
Well, now he really can't find out where he must be worried about Chen Yufeng......
Are there more championships and individual accolades?
This seems to be true, but if Chen Yufeng had come out with this kind of performance earlier, his advantage would have been gone.
"Wayne, the next time you have a chance like this, score it." Even Ibrahimovic seemed to be discouraged this time, and walked over and patted Rooney on the shoulder.
"It's mine, I'm sorry." Rooney shook his head and apologized reproachfully.
Ibrahimovic pulled Wayne Rooney up from the ground and then set his sights on Jose Mourinho on the sidelines.
Speaking of which, he is also a player with ties to Mourinho, and there is a very delicate relationship between the two.
In the early days, because he wanted to win the Champions League, he joined Barcelona, which was still in the dream dynasty at that time, and abandoned Mourinho of Inter.
As a result, shortly after his departure, Inter ended his legendary season with the treble, and he missed the best opportunity of his life.
For Mourinho, he owes something, he is embarrassed, and he also regrets that he didn't choose him.
"Mr. Mourinho, say a few words." Ibrahimovic pitched towards Mourinho in the hope that he would lift the team up.
But Ibrahimovic only saw the disappointment in the madman's eyes, as if he couldn't say anything at this time, and had to go back to training to correct a lot of problems.
The madman's on-the-spot command is actually not bad, but in today's situation, he really doesn't know how to command.
Leicester City are attacking them like mad dogs, bound to win the Community Shield.
Their run-in period for Manchester United is too short, and some details are always not done well, and they are crazy to give the opposite side a chance.
Feeling the difficulty of leading Manchester United, Mourinho let out a long breath and felt some pressure in his heart.
Whether it is the problem of Mr. Pogba or the problem of the team itself, it is difficult to solve.
Hopefully, if we can bring this team to the Champions League zone, it will be considered a success......
"Beep! Beep ——! ”
The referee didn't wait for another kick-off, but blew the whistle at the end of the half.
Jose Mourinho stood on the sidelines, high-fived and hugged each player before escorting everyone back to the dressing room.
He'll have some plans, but it's the last ditch.
As for Leicester, all the players clapped their hands and walked to the tunnel under the huge cheers of the fans.
"Good ball, Ukaze, you're really surprising me and Walsh again." Ranieri quickly came to Chen Yufeng's side and stretched out his right hand towards Chen Yufeng.
The two shook each other, and Ranieri asked again: "How long can we hold on?" I have to prepare in advance. ”
He knew that Chen Yufeng's body had been very tired recently, so he inquired in advance.
"I guess it's about seventy minutes into the game."
Chen Yufeng said a time, during which he was already strengthening his physical training, but it was not yet to the point of playing the whole game.
These things can't be forced, and today's game is considered a success.
The rest is left to the more physical teammates to see if they can hold the title for the team.
"Okay, I'll let Ndidi replace you and strengthen the defense at the back."
Ranieri nodded, and then added with a smile, "Of course, if you can still take the lead then." ”
"Definitely." Chen Yufeng's expression was full of affirmation, and his mood looked very good.
How could it be a bad feeling to come back from the new season and have the opportunity to lift a trophy for the team.
…………
At the start of the second half, Jose Mourinho made three substitutions in quick succession.
The substitution quota for the Community Shield is five, which is relatively lenient in this regard.
He first replaced Jesse Lingard with veteran Juan Mata and then brought on Argentine defender Marcos Rojo to replace Luke Shaw, who had been beaten through a sieve in the first half.
When the game came to the 55th minute, he boldly used Rashford and replaced Anthony Martial, who was in average form today.
A brand new Manchester United arrived, and they did play five or six minutes of good football, and at one point Leicester couldn't score at half-time.
But as Leicester's players got used to that rhythm, the lack of strikers was on display again, and no one could step up and kill the game at this point.
Manchester United fans even had to pin their hopes on Ibrahimovic, hoping that the veteran would be able to save them, as they really had no hope left.
"Why is it always so hard to score a goal and so easy to concede......"
"I was looking forward to it, I thought it was a game where I could score a slaughter, but it turned out to be a complete victory by Leicester City."
"Mourinho can't do it, how is it different from the rumors, it seems that last season with the Premier League was really a real level, and the magical coach is old."
"Don't be too arbitrary, others still know that we have to wait for Mu for two years, and we have to wait."
"But this game really makes me sad to watch......"
Disappointment hung over the stands, and the fans' expressions gradually became lonely, and even the cheers were not so loud.
This has also led to a gradual deterioration in the form of the Manchester United players on the pitch, and they are becoming more and more unable to play.
It is very unreasonable for a big club like this, where the main point of attack is young people.
This is a position that requires mental quality and ability to withstand pressure, and when you are in a club that is a giant, the expectations and pressure will rise to a new level.
How can a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young player have such a strong heart?
It is not excluded that some freaks are young and old, really talented, and after becoming famous at a young age, they will steadily cash out their talents.
But most people, do they have the ability?
"Bang!"
With Mata's shot and anti-aircraft guns, the game was already 73 minutes old.
The substitution card on the side of the pitch was raised, No. 66 Chen Yufeng went off the field, and No. 31 Ndidi came on the field.
"Bang Bang ......"
After returning from the European Championship, he contributed one goal and one assist to the team, and Chen Yufeng's performance certainly deserves the applause of Leicester City fans.
Especially after scoring the wonderful barb shot just now, even many Manchester United fans applauded him angrily, as if they were spurring their players in this way.
"Come on!"
As the captain, Chen Yufeng touched the head of the new recruit Ndidi and encouraged him.
Then he was shocked to find that his captain's armband had not been removed.
As a general rule, the captain of a team must hand over the armband to the second captain of the team after he leaves the field.
You can't be leaderless, you can't be without a spiritual leader.
"I'm sorry."
Chen Yufeng apologized, and then jogged in the direction of Morgan, wearing the captain's armband for him.
"Hahahaha......"
His move made the fans laugh and make the referee feel uncomfortable.
The referee ran over and inexplicably raised a yellow card on his head, "Stalling for time!" ”
Chen Yufeng wanted to defend that he didn't, he really just forgot to wear the captain's armband, but it didn't matter.
Anyway, this yellow card is not superimposed on the suspension, and the Community Shield will be sold immediately if it is won.
In a sense, this kind of one-game game, if you don't get an indifferent yellow card, you even have some losses.
You can't usually ask for cards like this, it comes at a cost.
After getting off the field, Chen Yufeng came to the bench with a smile and shook hands with his teammates and hugged them.
"Good shot, Captain."
"Well done, that barb is so handsome, Ling is my idol!"
"Hahaha, learn from you!"
"Come on, try to play thirty balls this season, hahaha."
All the Leicester City players sent their best wishes to Chen Yufeng, who smiled and interacted with them before returning to his seat.
In the final moments of the game, it was good to sit here and watch your teammates fight.
That way, when the final whistle blows, maybe he'll be able to rush on the pitch and celebrate with a sprint.
"Hoo ......"
Chen Yufeng regained his fitness and prepared for the sprint around the field in the future, and at the same time began to pay attention to the performance of new signing Ndidi.
Ndidi is the same type of player as N'Golo Kante, covers the same large area and likes to break the ball with tackles, so he and N'Golo Kante will be a good defensive pairing.
But when these two stay together, the forward organization basically doesn't have to think about it.
This is basically equivalent to tying Zhao Lei and Chen Hongyu together, and letting them sing, love, and dare to do.
Therefore, Leicester City directly retracted the line in the following period and began to defend to the death, they put Manchester United's attacking line in, and then strangled it with dense defense.
Thanks to the efforts of N'Golo Kante and Ndidi, Leicester City defended well and did not give Manchester United too many chances.
That's it, the race is going to the finish line minute by minute.
It's close to Leicester City winning the Community Shield.
