Chapter 252 A Difficult Game

Last season, Sunderland narrowly avoided relegation with a three-point advantage. Their goal this season is still to stay in the Premier League.

But obviously this season seems to be more difficult.

In the 30th minute of the game, they were abused by Leicester City 3-0.

And their offense can't play the slightest spirit.

Even Leicester City's midfield couldn't get through.

This made them very frustrated.

In the first minute of stoppage time in the first half, Vardy took advantage of the counterattack opportunity to score another goal.

This time it was Xia Xing's cross from the side, passing the ball at an angle of 45 degrees.

Vardy quickly plugged in and shot into the net in front of the goal.

4 is better than 0!

Leicester City continue to score!

During the intermission, Ranieri directly adjusted the two positions.

Striker Ulloa went off and Van Persie came off the bench.

This is the Dutch veteran's first Premier League appearance on behalf of Leicester City.

As soon as he entered the field, he took advantage of a corner kick and hit the goal post with a header.

Although Van Persie is not as explosive and powerful as he was when he was young, his experience is still top in the world.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Van Persie finally scored.

This time it was still Xia Xing's cross from the left.

Shake the defense and break through the bottom line, and make a precise cross!

Van Persie plugs in from the back row and heads the ball to the top!

The ball hit the net hard!
5 is better than 0!

The Dutch veteran scored his first goal for Leicester City!

Excited fans shouted his name loudly!

In this team, Van Persie is definitely the biggest star!
Now he tells everyone with his performance-he still deserves to play in the Premier League!
And 4 minutes later, it was Xia Xing and Kanter's defensive cooperation in the middle that broke the opponent's ball.

Diagonal pass to the right!
Mahrez broke into the goal and knocked across the door!
Van Persie shovels into the net!
6 is better than 0!

A brace!

There was warm applause again from the stands, and Van Persie was all smiles!

The fact that I joined Leicester City was absolutely correct!
With six goals in hand, Ranieri also completely relaxed.

He replaced Shinji Okazaki and replaced Vardy.

Inle was replaced again, and Mahrez was replaced.

In the new season, Leicester City will fight on multiple fronts, and must seize the time as much as possible to run-in the lineup.

After the two new aids came on the field, they also showed good teamwork.

Several pass and pass cooperation are in place.

Inle was full of fighting spirit, and a burst shot from outside the penalty area almost hit the net.

Shinji Okazaki runs aggressively. When defending, he often runs near the middle circle, and when attacking, he quickly presses up, without sparing his physical strength.

In the 85th minute of the game, it was Yinle's long-range shot that was blocked by the defender and fell at the feet of Shinji Okazaki.

The Japanese striker kicked decisively and volleyed!

The ball went into the net!

7 is better than 0!

The seven stars of Leicester City shine!

On the sidelines, Ranieri was already grinning from ear to ear.

"What a great bunch of lads today!"

Shakespeare next to him also kept applauding, his palms became red.

"Yeah, awesome! Awesome!"

Shakespeare was suddenly in a trance, recalling the last season.

Although Leicester City also performed well at that time, they rarely played such a clean game.

They always rely on their tenacious defense to wear down their opponents bit by bit.

And in this game, they showed a crushing force.

In the few warm-up matches before the season, Leicester City just took their opponents lightly.

Unexpectedly, with the passage of time, the progress of the team has exceeded my imagination.

Just right!
Looking at the sky, the blue sky is like rustling.

At the last moment of stoppage time, Xia Xing hit the post with a free kick from outside the penalty area, missing the opportunity to continue to expand the score.

The opposing Sunderland players have become a little numb.

The referee's whistle finally sounded.

The Sunderland players walked off the pitch dejectedly. They wished they could become transparent people and completely draw a line from this game, this stadium and this opponent.

After this wonderful game, Leicester City once again reproduced the miracle of last season.

Top the league table!

No team has achieved more goal difference than Leicester City in the first round of the league.

7 goal difference, really amazing.

Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room is looking forward to it.

"I don't know how long Leicester City can stay at the top of the list this season, let us wait and see!"

A wonderful game made Leicester City the focus of this round of the league.

Ranieri quickly won the love of the fans and several new arrivals were praised by the pundits.

Replays of the seven goals are often shown on TV, and the Internet and print media also praise Leicester City soldiers.

It was so beautiful.

But for the players of Leicester City, the excitement of the day passed, and it was completely silent the next day.

Continue to prepare for the next game.

They went to Georgia's Tbilisi National Stadium early to prepare for the next important game.

European Super Cup.

For Leicester City, perhaps this game is the most powerful opponent they have ever faced as a team.

none of them.

Last season's Champions League champion, La Liga overlord, and world-renowned football team-Barcelona.

In an unfamiliar stadium, Leicester City players played the match seriously.

Ranieri on the sidelines had a calm expression, watching the players on the court, and writing something in the notebook from time to time.

However, although his expression is calm, the hand holding the pen is very strong.

Shakespeare next to him was overjoyed, and his brows were already frowned: "This game is really difficult to play. Isn't it, buddy?"

Although the two didn't get along for a long time, they were very tempered and spoke very easily.

Like old friends.

Listening to Shakespeare's inquiry, Ranieri also nodded: "Yes, it is a difficult game."

"Can we win?"

"It's hard to say, it's hard anyway."

"Or we still stick to it like we played against Chelsea?"

"No, we can't keep it."

"Can't hold it? So pessimistic?"

"It's not that I'm pessimistic, but I know Barcelona's offense very well. They are too strong. The strength of the MSN team is the best in the world. Iniesta and other midfielders are also extremely strong in attacking power. There are also Alba and Alves' flanking attacking power... It is too difficult for us to defend. It is absolutely impossible not to concede the ball."

"Then what should we do? Are we going to admit defeat?"

Ranieri did not answer, he shouted in the direction of the pitch.

"Xia!"

Seeing the head coach waving at him, Xia Xing quickly ran to the sidelines.

"Coach, are you looking for me?"

"Ah."

Ranieri nodded, pointed to Shakespeare, and said to Xia Xing: "Talk to your dear assistant coach what you said when you chatted with me last night."

Shakespeare was a little confused.

what's the situation?
He looked at Xia Xing.

Xia Xing nodded peacefully and looked at Shakespeare.

"I have an idea about the tactics for the game in a few days.

"If we stick to it, we will never be able to keep it.

"Then, we might as well attack boldly!"
