Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 125: Time is running out, grassroots hero Ulloa! (Ask for monthly ticket)

"Calm down! Calm down! Don't worry!"

In this situation, Chen Yufeng immediately shouted to his teammates on the court and clapped his hands to signal everyone.

The time of the game goes very quickly, and they don't have much time to waste. They must not be emotional during this time.

One foul is enough to delay the opponent for a long time.

This is definitely not the state they should show at this time, and they are also the side that wants to win.

In fact, Chen Yufeng can understand it. In such a critical game, it is normal for players to be unable to control their emotions.

Everyone is normal and there is no absolute calmness.

But they must overcome these inner demons and force themselves to calm down!

This is the look of a champion!

He didn't add any extra points during this period, and his physical fitness was still good, but he could only hold on until the end of the game.

Therefore, one ball may not be enough now, and two balls can provide some safety.

If it enters overtime after scoring a goal, he will definitely go out. Albrighton, who came as a substitute, does not have very strong offensive attributes, so it is hard to say how he will perform.

Chen Yufeng really wanted to win, so he had to try to end the game within 10 or [-] minutes!

The Leicester City players gradually came back to their senses and began to slowly adjust, but there was not much time left for them.

Game No.703 minutes.

The substitution card was raised on the sidelines, and Ulloa came on to replace Shinji Okazaki. He has always come on as a substitute for this kind of surprise player to strengthen the offense.

Two minutes later, the substitution card was raised again, and Andy King replaced Drinkwater, who had a yellow card, to supplement the physical strength of the midfielder.

"Kang is busy! Brothers! Come on, we can't give up!"

When Andy King came up, Leicester City was already in a very difficult situation.

There are still 15 minutes of regular time. Even if a goal can be scored, it is very dangerous for the game to be dragged into overtime by Manchester City.

Their opponents obviously have a deeper bench than them and are better prepared for overtime.

Pellegrini didn't even make a substitution at this time, holding the substitution quota in his hand to prepare for the possible overtime.

"Manchester city!! Manchester city!! Manchester city!!"

The cheers of the Manchester City fans at the scene continued. They seemed to have a chance to win, and the promotion situation was excellent.

Leicester City seems to have only a theoretical possibility of promotion.

That is to try to score a goal in the remaining time, drag the game into overtime, and then use bus defense to block Manchester City's final counterattack, and finally get lucky in the penalty shootout...

"The situation is already very difficult. We have to attribute the sudden heavy rain to the result of this game. This has a huge impact on the situation on the field."

"Leicester City must now take one final breath and try to score a goal."

"Otherwise, they will be eliminated from the League Cup, which means that some of the sacrifices they have made in rotation in the Premier League will be in vain."

"After all, this is a team with an average bench."

Zhan Jun continued to explain in the studio, and Zhang Lu beside him shook his head slightly, "We can only hope for miracles."

Both thought their League Cup journey with Leicester City was coming to an end.

The final will be Manchester City and Liverpool.

The only good thing about seeing this scene is that Zhan Jun doesn't have to worry anymore.

Everything else is all bad.

As the game continued to move forward, anxiety spread throughout the Leicester City team. Of course, they did not want to leave the field just yet.

But time waits for no one, after their repeated attacks failed.

The game time gradually came to 10 minutes, 85 minutes, 86 minutes...

"Oh!"

At the 806th minute of game No. [-], Chen Yufeng's physical energy was almost exhausted.

He diverted the ball towards Mahrez with a tentative long pass, then followed the ball with his eyes.

Mahrez stopped the football very well. His dominant foot is his left foot, so he naturally lowered his left shoulder and tried to move the football towards the baseline.

Manchester City's full-back was quick to take the bait, and Mahrez quickly moved the ball back to the right with his right foot.

On the edge of the penalty area, the Algeria international made a last-ditch effort.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and all Leicester City fans' eyes were on Mahrez and the football at his feet.

They knew it was going to be a cross.

In the middle position, Vardy was breathing heavily as he moved toward the forward point. Ulloa in the middle looked expectant, and Chen Yufeng at the back point also dragged his tired body into place.

"Oh!"

Mahrez's right foot kicked out, and the football spun violently, quickly vacating from the edge of the penalty area and falling towards the center.

Vardy and Otamendi, who were at the front, took off at the same time. They both jumped up and turned their heads behind them.

In the middle position, Sania and Ulua took off at the same time.

Under the spotlight, Ulloa's explosive power was obviously stronger, and he took the lead in occupying the air superiority.

As his tall figure jumped up, his waist and abdomen exerted force to drive his neck, and finally the force was transferred to his forehead.

"Oh!"

Ulloa successfully completed the aerial challenge and smashed the ball towards the goal.

Joe Hart fished towards the right, but such a close header obviously left him unable to do anything.

"Whoa!" The sound of the net hitting the net immediately aroused the shouts of the Leicester City expedition fans in the audience, "Yeahhhhhhhhh...!!" As Ulloa landed, all the Leicesterians on the scene cheered. They fell into madness, and the exhausted players rushed towards Ulloa as if they were crazy.

There was a hint of tears of joy in Ulloa's expression. He just came on the field, but at this moment he quickly became short of breath and even a little hypoxic.

hero!

He once again became the hero of this team and kept the suspense!

Although he is a substitute, he loves the feeling of coming on the bench to save the team. There is not a day when he is not eager to do something for Leicester City!
Ranieri on the sidelines was also uncharacteristically uncharacteristic at this time, pumping his fists and shouting in celebration as if he was crazy, running back and forth on the sideline, and his suit and tie were thrown up.

"Ulloa! An incredible goal!!"

In the Sina Sports live broadcast room, Zhan Jun's excited voice sounded, "In this difficult situation, Leicester City retained the last glimmer of hope, and they kept the suspense!"

"The game may have to be decided in overtime!"

"Although Chen Yufeng may be replaced, please let us believe in the fighters of Leicester City. If they can hold on, they can lead this team to the League Cup final again after more than ten years."

"Chen Yufeng will also join in at that time and compete for the final trophy!"

"Leicester City! Come on!"

His last shout sounded a little broken.

The scene went completely crazy, and all the Leicester City players threw Ulloa to the ground and celebrated wildly.

Looking back at Manchester City, all the players put their hands on their waists, stood with their legs bent in front of one another, and made a classic move of helplessness.

Pellegrini sat up from the coaching seat again and looked at his watch.

Fortunately, the game time was about to run out and entering overtime, Manchester City still had the advantage.

The head coach, who is used to seeing big winds and waves, did not appear too panicked at this moment.

He clapped his hands to encourage his team and signaled the players to grit their teeth and finish the regular time first, and wait until overtime to make adjustments.

Among the celebrating crowd, after Chen Yufeng finished expressing his emotions, he dragged his tired legs and rushed towards the Manchester City goal.

There is still time, he still wants to try!
He wanted to kill the game completely before leaving the field and not drag the game into a more difficult overtime!

Although there are risks in doing so, if a player wants to win but is afraid of losing, a person who daydreams but cannot believe in his own steps, then he will never be able to achieve anything!
"Beep!"

At the 808th minute of the game, the referee blew the whistle to restart the game.

Players on both sides were very tired at this time, but they still dragged their bodies into battle.

For Manchester City, the most tired thing is undoubtedly their double midfielder and attacking midfielder Silva.

They shouldered a lot of the defensive responsibilities today.

So far, the performance has been pretty good, and Leicester City, who are bent on reversal, have no intention of completing their goal.

They only need to hold on for a few more minutes and they can drag the game on and wait for their teammates to replace them.

In this way, the Leicester City players took their last breath and launched several waves of attacks at the last moment.

They were completely out of strength.

Soon after, I watched the referee on the sidelines raise the stoppage time card. The stoppage time in the second half was only 1 minute.

This also means that Leicester City players have one minute of stoppage time left.

"suffer!"

Ranieri immediately rushed to the fourth official with an angry face, "The stoppage time is only 1 minute? Are you sure? The stoppage time is only 1 minute?!"

"They had so many fouls and mistakes, and the total time definitely exceeded 4 minutes!"

However, at this time, more advanced technology and long stoppage time had not yet appeared. This move had no other purpose except to show Ranieri's anxiety and lack of confidence in overtime.

"Bang!!"

With more than 30 seconds left in the game, Ulloa shot a shot anxiously, but the quality was not very high and was saved by Joe Hart with one palm.

Looking at the numbers on the scoreboard on the sidelines, all the Leicester City fans hugged their heads with hesitant expressions, with some despair in their eyes.

Up to now, it has been very good for their grassroots team.

But having reached this point, they don't want to stop there.

Everyone knows that entering overtime is equivalent to entering an abyss. With the team's current physical fitness, not only may it not be able to survive, but injuries may also occur.

That's what no one wants to see.

At this time, Chen Yufeng picked up the ball from the penalty area and threw it to Mahrez.

Usually, the left corner kick is actually taken by Chen Yufeng as a free throw. This has been arranged by the team for a long time and has never been changed.

Mahrez was stunned for a moment after receiving the football. After seeing Chen Yufeng's extension, he seemed to remember something.

That is an extra training activity they often do at the training base when they are bored.

After swallowing, Mahrez stood there and hesitated for a moment, then walked towards the wing with the football in his arms.

It's already this time, what else can I do if I don't risk that kick...

Everyone should be more courageous.

In the eyes of the Manchester City players, this move by the two of them was just a simple handover and did not attract any attention.

After all, few teams pay attention to the corner kick penalty taker and use it as a tactic to defend.

They mostly conduct man-to-man defense in the penalty area, or zone defense, or combined zone and man-to-man defense.

Otherwise, leave it to God.
