As a goalkeeper, carry the team forward

Chapter 249 Both Forwards Are Dirty

A simple pre-match handshake.

Unexpectedly, the atmosphere at Fox City's home court turned out to be very enthusiastic.

It is absolutely impossible for Leicester City to achieve today's results due to the credit of one person, which is different from Villa relying on Jose alone.

Although Jose rarely pays attention to other teams, he also knows that Vardy, Mahrez and Kanter are definitely the three cornerstones of Leicester City.

Especially Kanter, who is definitely a midfield barrier for Leicester City.

As for Jose's former teammate Albrighton, after coming to Fox City, he has improved a lot.

Ranieri is not a tactical master, but he is good at repairing the existing lineup and motivating the players.

Under the training of Ranieri, Leicester City instantly jumped from a relegation team to a championship team.

If it was a year ago, Chelsea won Leicester City, there would be no problem at all, but this season, people have strong doubts about it.

...

Chelsea got a new kick-off.

In the middle circle, Costa kicked off and passed back directly to Ramirez.

Chelsea immediately organized the first wave of offense.

It's just a pity that when Fox City took the initiative to shrink its defense, it failed to find a chance to shoot, but instead allowed Fox City to get a chance to counterattack after stealing the ball.

Mahrez took the ball and brought it to Hudao.

Facing Chelsea's defense, Mahrez chose to hit the goal directly with his left foot.

The ball flew towards the bottom left of the goal.

Jose jumped sideways and easily confiscated the opponent's shot.

Jose wants to take the goal kick quickly, ready to catch the opponent by surprise.

However, when Oscar dribbled the ball forward, he was directly cut off by Kanter.

Kanter is not tall, but he is quick, accurate and ruthless when he tackles the ball.

The entanglement in the midfield was extremely intense.

It wasn't until the 14th minute that Chelsea completed their first shot.

It's a pity that Oscar's shot from outside the penalty area completely deviated from the direction of the goal.

It can be seen that Chelsea's offense is really unsatisfactory.

...

In the 18th minute, Mahrez broke through the left side of Chelsea's penalty area.

Faced with Zouma's press, Mahrez hit the goal with his left foot.

The ball flew straight below the goal.

However, Jose had been prepared for a long time, bent down and directly confiscated the opponent's shot.

Jose takes the goal kick.

It's a pity that Chelsea's offense still has no chance.

In the 30th minute, Hazard was shoveled and injured by the opponent when he dribbled the ball forward.

Mourinho was forced to make substitutions and adjust.

Pedro comes on for Hazard.

...

In the 31st minute, Albrighton took the ball on the left side of the penalty area.

Jose blocked it immediately.

Albrighton did not take a greedy shot, but passed back to Kanter on the left side of Hudao in an inverted triangle.

Kanter received a pass from his teammate and volleyed directly.

It's a pity that it missed.

The ball flew out of the baseline from the upper right corner of the goal.

Shooting has never been Kante's forte.

Jose takes another goal kick.

It's a pity that Chelsea's offense still cannot threaten the opponent's gate.

One minute later, it was Leicester City who got the chance to counterattack quickly.

Mahrez dribbled the ball forward from the right, threw off Azpilicueta's interception and made a low pass.

In the middle of the penalty area, on the edge of the small penalty area, Vardy has already outflanked it.

At this moment, Jose's god-level prediction responded.

It is known from the prediction that Vardy hit the goal directly after receiving the pass from his teammate.

The ball flew into the goal from the bottom right of the goal.

It is definitely too late to attack, and if Jose blocks the bottom right of the goal now, Vardy will most likely change his mind temporarily and choose to play in another direction.

Jose can only choose to continue to leave the gap on the lower right, and at the same time be ready to save at any time.

Sure enough, as seen in the prediction, Vardy volleyed directly to the lower right after getting the ball.

It's a pity that Jose has already prepared.

Vardy's must-go goal was blocked by Jose with both hands.

The ball didn't roll away and was taken by Mahrez who was killed later.

Mahrez volleys with his left foot.

Just when Jose was about to use the plug-in, he found that Mahrez's shot completely deviated from the direction of the goal.

Leicester City missed a chance to score.

...

Two minutes later, Chelsea almost broke the deadlock.

William made a cross from the bottom line on the right.

In the middle of the small penalty area, Matic scored with a header.

The ball flew straight to the top left of the goal.

At this point Leicester City goalkeeper Schmeichel has given up the fight.

Just as the Chelsea fans were about to celebrate, the ball was blocked by the crossbar.

"Oh..." There was a sigh from the Chelsea fans' stands.

The game continues.

Before the end of the first half, Leicester City had another good chance.

Albrighton advanced from the side, and in a blink of an eye he had reached the left side of the penalty area.

This time, Jose did not attack to block the opponent, but silently kept an eye on other nearby opponents.

With a wide eye, Jose saw Kanter in front of the left side of the penalty area.

Sure enough, Albrighton made an inverted triangle pass to Kanter again.

Kanter receives a pass from his teammate, adjusts and then volleys with his right foot.

The ball flew straight towards the goal near the post.

Since Jose was already ready, Kanter's shot was easily won by him.

In the end, the doubles in the first half became a 0-0 tie.

Chelsea outperformed the opponent in terms of ball possession rate, but Leicester City dominated both in terms of the number of shots and the quality of shots.

Everyone understands that Leicester City's ability to rank at the top of the list is definitely not as simple as luck.

...

Intermission time.

Mourinho rearranged his tactics, but most of the content was about the defensive end, and few of the players were listening seriously.

Mourinho wants to completely suppress the opponent's shot, which is simply unrealistic.

Since this game is a paid live broadcast, there are not many fans talking in the chat room.

"It is estimated that the paid is to watch Leicester City."

"Mu Niao no longer has the aura of Porto Inter Milan. Newcomers dare not use it. They blindly seek stability. They want to win and are afraid of losing. From Lukaku, Schurrle, De Bruyne to the current Remy, why do they have to use dirty? Dead Tower?"

"Yes, both strikers are too dirty."

"I agree. To put it nicely, it's hard work. In fact, it's dirty kicks and constant small moves. I really want to send Costa and Vardy down with a red card each."

Unexpectedly, the fans complained the most about the main forwards of the two teams.

In the second half, the two sides exchanged venues.

I don't know if Karatenberg heard the complaints from the fans, but he finally took out the first yellow card of the game against Vardy.

Vardy competed with Zuma for the ball, and he directly brought Zuma down with his hands.

In the 48th minute, Leicester City had another good chance.

Albrighton made a diagonal pass from the left and passed the ball directly to the right side of the penalty area.

In the penalty area, many Leicester City players have outflanked.

Jose immediately scored 12 points.

10 yards in front of the goal, Mahrez received a pass from Albrighton and volleyed directly with his left foot.

The ball drew a perfect arc in the air and flew towards the upper left corner of the goal.

At this time, in order to block the opponent's shot from the right, Jose has already reached the right side of the goal.
