Star card system

Chapter 86 Spoiler!
On the evening of April 2, King Power Stadium.

Tens of thousands of fans have long been waiting, looking forward to the restart of the game.

For the game two months ago, because the Etihad Stadium had a limited number of tickets for visiting fans, most Leicester City fans watched the game at home or in bars.

Seeing the team's regretful defeat through the TV screen, the fans were also heartbroken.

And now, they can finally cheer for the team's FA Cup journey on the spot!
The first two FA Cup games this season were all away games.

Playing Manchester City, finally at home!
Good thing!

Manchester City's bus slowly drove outside the King Power Stadium.

The Manchester City players looked at the lively square, but their mood was not so beautiful.

In the last League Cup match, although they won the ball in the end, they were almost tied by the opponent.

And the 3 to 2 ending was not what they wanted.

In their hearts, it is reasonable to play a team like Leicester City and win a big victory!
What kind of team that breaks the British Championship dares to shout at us?

After getting off the bus and entering the locker room, the Manchester City players were still chatting disdainfully.

"We must win this game! Get back face!"

"That's right! It's embarrassing to win a small victory against this kind of team!"

"Today we're going to beat them up in front of their home fans!"

The players waved their fists, as if they wanted to go up and do it now.

But Pellegrini frowned.

He tapped the whiteboard lightly, and the players fell silent.

"Boys, you have a lot of competition, I can understand that.

"But don't be proud!
"Don't think Leicester City is easy to deal with!
"In the last game, we only won 3-2.

"Chelsea stumbled on them half a month ago.

"Do you still think Leicester City is weak?

"In three days we have a Champions League game against Barcelona,
"That game was important,

"However, this game is just as important.

"So I hope that the players who started today will go all out,
"Win down the opponent steadily and advance to the next round smoothly,
"This is what I ask of you!"

After Pellegrini finished speaking, although no one refuted the players, they were still unconvinced.

Especially Nasri.

He didn't think highly of Leicester City at all.

In the last game, they were scored twice by Leicester City and almost equalized.

Nasri has always been unconvinced about this matter.

Isn't it because Lao Tzu was injured and left?
If Lao Tzu was still there, would you stinky foxes still be arrogant?

This game will kill you!

Because Manchester City will usher in the Champions League quarter-finals in three days, and the opponent is still a strong game.

Therefore, Manchester City still played many substitutes in this game.

Compared with the last game against Leicester City, the lineup has not changed much.

The main goalkeeper Pantilimon is still starting.

Back four Clichy, Lescott, Kompany and Zabaleta.

Double midfielder Xavi Garcia and Yaya Toure.

Three midfielders Milner, Nasri and Navas.

Single striker Dzeko.

Compared with the previous lineup, only three positions of Dzeko, Yaya Toure and Clichy have been changed.

Especially the appearance of Yaya Toure proves that Pellegrini attaches great importance to the midfield control of this game.

As one of the strongest B2B stars in the Premier League at the moment, Yaya Toure is extremely strong.

Perhaps, neither one is the strongest.

Tough defense, crisp passing, decisive offense, and super physical fitness.

Such a midfielder is really rare in the world.

Leicester City's lineup has also undergone some changes in this game.

But it's not because of the physical fitness of the players, let alone the pressure of two-line combat, it's purely a tactical consideration.

Goalkeeper Schmeichel still sits in defense.

The four defenders are from left to right De Laet, Konchesky, Wes Morgan, Vasilewski.

The four midfielders are Xia Xing, Hammond, Drinkwater and Schlupp from left to right.

The double forwards are Vardy and Mahrez.

看起来还是4-4-2阵型，实际上已经变成了4-4-1-1阵型。

Mahrez is a free man in the frontcourt, responsible for the team's midfield connection.

Except for Xia Xing, the midfielders, the other three are tough defensive men.

And the right back has also been replaced by Vasilewski, who has a better defense.

Pearson has only one purpose in this game - to spoil the game!

"The referee blows the whistle, the game begins!
"Manchester City are still far ahead of their opponents on paper in this game!

"They have the ball in midfield!

"Nasri is very skilled!
"Consecutive feints, past Schlupp!

"Hammond side shovel!

"This action is very vicious!
"Nasri cleverly jumped up and dodged!
"The ball fell to Yaya Toure!
"Bigfoot to the frontcourt!
"Dzeko stopped the ball with his back and chest in the box!
"Hit it!
"Keylor Navas has a low shot!
"The ball was firmly held by Schmeichel!
"In the second minute of the game, Manchester City gave a wonderful shot!

"They have a strong desire to win this game!"

The desire to win is strong, that's right.

But I also have lingering fears.

Especially Nasri.

Schlupp's tackle just now was very brutal, and that was a foul.

But if Nasri lets him shovel, nine out of ten he will end up.

Even if the opponent gets a yellow card, so what?
At the beginning of the game, it is unlikely that the referee will show a red card.

So Nasri would rather lose the ball than protect himself from injury.

The game continued, and Manchester City's offense continued.

After continuous midfield possession, the ball was handed over to the right again.

After receiving the ball, Navas suddenly accelerated and dashed!
Speed ​​is his greatest advantage!
But the left back Draet directly shoveled it!
At the ball, even showing the spikes!

What about Navas?
Force the ball and get tackled?
Even if a penalty kick is awarded, so what?
Don't even think about the game against Barcelona!
Not to mention three days later, it's not even certain whether they can come back in the second round!
Fxxk!

I hid!

Slowing down and giving way, Navas gave the ball to Dellaet very generously.

The ball was shoved into the penalty area, Morgan made a big foot clearance, and Leicester City escaped again.

Another midfield scramble followed, with passes between Milner and Javi Garcia.

Xia Xing came out suddenly!
Hit Javi Garcia hard!
Just knocked Xavi Garcia away!
The referee didn't blow his whistle!
Xia Xing got the ball!

Kick the big foot to the frontcourt!

Vardy catches the ball and sprints with the ball!

Suddenly pass back in the penalty area!

Inverted triangle!
Mahrez keeps up with the push!

The ball goes slightly wide of the goal!

Although they didn't enter, the King Power Stadium still burst into applause!

Garcia, who had just been knocked down, looked up at Xia Xing. Xia Xing glanced at him and ignored him at all.

Garcia suppressed his anger and didn't go up to trouble Xia Xing.

Xia Xing sneered.

Boy, doesn't it feel good to be roughed up?

It's a pity that this is our goal for this game!
All of us are spoilers in this game!
