Chapter 12 Harvey of Leicester CityAsk for a ticket! 】

"Following his first-team debut a few days ago, Leicester City's teenager Ling Feng ushered in his debut in the Championship"

"Also appearing with him is Algerian rising star Riyad Mahrez."

Ling Feng came on and replaced the left midfielder Lloyd Dell.

Mahrez was opposite Anthony Konokat, who replaced the right midfielder.

With the appearance of two substitutes, the formation on the field also changed from 442 to 4231.

Forward Vardy was moved to the left and temporarily served as a left midfielder.

Ling Feng, on the other hand, stood behind striker Nugent and acted as the attacking midfielder.

After Ling Feng came on as a substitute, Leicester City coach Pearson, who was standing on the sidelines, did not forget to shout to the players on the field:

"Pass the ball to Ling more!"

In fact, Ling Feng's performance in training has already won the trust of his teammates.

Even without instructions from the head coach, other players in Leicester City are more than willing to give him the ball to organize the offense.

The Leicester City players had no reaction to this call, but it attracted the attention of the Derby County players.

The Derby County players seemed to have noticed something, and looked at Ling Feng one after another.

Before the game, they knew Ling Feng's name and deeds from various channels.

He came on as a substitute and provided two assists to help the team reverse the Premier League team Stoke City.

Before the game, the head coach emphasized to them Ling Feng's passing threat, claiming that once the opponent comes off the bench, they must press hard and not allow him to pass the ball easily.

Even so, most of Derby County's players disagree:
How powerful can a young rookie be?

Perhaps, this black-haired boy is the breakthrough point for them to reverse the situation!
Sensing the stares cast by the Derby County players, Ling Feng's expression remained unchanged, but he scolded in his heart:

I rely on!

The next time you deploy tactics, can you stop yelling in front of your opponent?

Although he complained like this in his heart, Ling Feng was already mentally prepared.

Ever since the FA Cup came out, coupled with the media's excessive praise, he expected that when he was on the field, he would definitely meet the "key attention" of the opponent's players

No, "Brother Drinking Water" Drinkwater just passed the ball to Ling Feng's feet, and the Derby County midfielder who was ambushing behind him immediately rushed over with an extremely ferocious aura.

Obviously, he intends to give this black-haired boy a blow!

However, before he got close, Ling Feng seemed to have eyes behind him, and without the slightest hesitation, he kicked the ball and passed the ball back to Drinkwater's feet.

Seeing Ling Feng passing the ball back, Derby County's midfielder thought Ling Feng was afraid of him pressing him. He was so proud that he couldn't help but slow down his pace.

Ling Feng didn't care if there was anyone behind him at all, he just sped up his feet a little, and ran to the empty space to meet him.

Soon, everyone in the King Power Stadium, including the audience, commentators, and Derby County players on the field, discovered something strange:

Is football hot?
Why does this black-haired kid want to pass the ball out as soon as he gets the ball?
Slowly, people who understand football began to see some clues.

The No. 23 of Leicester City, through continuous short passes in the midfield and running open to respond, formed a mobile triangle team with two midfield teammates on his own, and firmly controlled the ball in his hands!
In the face of the pressing and rushing of the Derby County players, Ling Feng was always able to pass the ball in the first time, without giving the opponent a chance to foul or confront.

The Derby County players couldn't touch the ball at all, so they could only shrink their defense and watch Leicester City take possession of the ball.

And within 5 minutes after Ling Feng came on the field, Leicester City's ball possession rate reached a terrifying 100%!
And such a picture made the commentator in the commentary booth very surprised:

"Wow!"

"What did I see?!"

“Is this Spanish tiki-taka?!”

"Flexible movement, very mature way of handling the ball, it is completely invisible that he is only!"

"Haha, if it wasn't for the blue jersey he was wearing, I would have thought he was a product of La Masia's youth training."

Hearing this, Leicester City coach Pearson, who was sitting firmly on the home team's coaching bench with his legs crossed, couldn't help but show a proud look.

He immediately did not forget to smile to the assistant coach Walsh beside him:

"It looks like we made the right decision."

Except for the coaching staff and Ling Feng himself, no one will know that this is the way of playing football tailored for Ling Feng by the coaching staff after comprehensively considering his personal strengths and weaknesses!
And the game videos that Ling Feng watched most in the video room were the Barcelona game videos of the "Dream Three" period, as well as the personal game highlights of Barcelona's brain Harvey.

In the eyes of Pearson and Walsh, Ling Feng is their Harvey of Leicester City!

. . .

In the midfield, use safe short passes to connect in series, in order to paralyze the opponent.

Then when the opponent player thought he could only pass the safety ball and the defensive attention began to relax, he made another fatal blow!
Under the continuous short pass, Ling Feng finally caught the gap in Derby County's formation.

When Drinking Brother No. 20 passed the ball to Ling Feng's feet six times, he paused.

Seeing that Ling Feng did not pass the ball out immediately, Derby County's midfielder thought that he was about to turn around, so he did not dare to neglect at all and rushed over immediately.

"It's now!"

Just as the midfielder rushed behind him aggressively, Ling Feng's expression turned solemn, and he kicked the ball back to another midfielder, Marty James, who was following up with him.

The moment he passed the ball, he immediately turned around and ran forward, just passing by the Derby County midfielder.

Ling Feng could even see the look of astonishment written on the other person's face.

But he showed a slightly sarcastic smile.

Xiao Mian, are you confused?
"Beautiful turn around!"

Seeing Ling Feng running forward into the open space, James passed the ball back again.

With just a simple one-two, Ling Feng avoided the defensive midfielder's rush and gained space to pass the ball.

Seeing this, the central defender of Derby County opened his eyes and subconsciously opened his mouth to shout:
"Forcing up!"

Derby County coach on the sidelines, former England coach Steve McClaren also shouted to the disciples on the field:

"Don't let him pass the ball!"

However, it's too late!

Without the slightest hesitation, and without looking up to observe, Ling Feng swung his right leg vigorously, and sent a straight thrust to the ground!
The fast-rolling ball penetrated between the central defender and the left back, and came to the right front of Derby County's penalty area.

This pass also aroused the praise of the commentator:
"An imaginative through ball! The ball went through the half of Derby County's defense and came to the outside of the penalty area."

"Oh, Mahrez No. 26!"

With the sudden exclamation of the commentator, Mahrez, wearing the No. 26 jersey, rushed into the penalty area like the wind!

This is the tacit understanding he and Ling Feng accumulated during training and group confrontation.

Whenever Ling Feng faces the goal and is about to pass the ball, he will run into the space behind the full-back without hesitation.

Because he knew very well that as long as he ran, Ling Feng would pass the ball comfortably!
If you want to say who has the best first touch technique among the entire Leicester City first-team players, then Mahrez, who has just transferred to join, is a well-deserved number one.

Facing the high-speed rolling football and the goalkeeper who abandoned the goal in front of him, Mahrez looked calm, like an emotionless killer.

Under the breathless attention of tens of thousands of fans at the King Power Stadium, he just tapped the bottom of the ball very lightly with his left foot.

In the next second, the ball flew over the head of the Derby County goalkeeper and jumped into the empty goal!

"Maherez, face the goalkeeper"

"Shoot!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"gooooooaaaal!"

With this light lob shot, Mahrez got his first goal in the English Championship.

Ling Feng also got his first assist in the British Championship.

Only 10 minutes had passed since he came on as a substitute.
