Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 14 Vichai and Chen Binghua watch the game live (please collect it)

Not long after, when the players on both sides began to warm up in the venue, fans from both sides quickly entered the stadium.

Due to tight ticket sales at the King Power Stadium today, only [-] tickets were released to away fans.

However, this still cannot stop the enthusiasm of the fans of the visiting team.

Their fan organization organized a rush to buy them early and bought up every quota. Many people even bought some at high prices from Leicester City fans.

As a team with a long history and profound foundation, Black Cat Sunderland still has many people's support.

Today, in the season opener, they are naturally looking forward to the team defeating the relatively weak Leicester City away from home and completing their first victory!
"Sunderland! Sunderland! Sunderland!"

Sunderland fans raised their hands and cheered for the players in the stadium.

"This game may be one of the few opportunities to score points this season. We must send Leicester City away in the away game, and then return to home in the second half and beat them violently to get six precious relegation points. ."

There were also Sunderland fans chatting above the stands, speaking more confidently.

"Yes, according to pre-match media reports, Leicester City may be one of the weakest teams in the Premier League this season."

"Got to chew them! Come on, Sunderland!"

"Do you think the other side thinks the same way? Want to score points against us?"

"Maybe, after all, we are also a relegation team, so this game may be quite anxious, and the excitement is not inferior to the championship games."

"Believe us, Ranieri will definitely counterattack again, and our team's high-altitude bombing will definitely take the lead in the opening game!"

"..."

The Sunderland fans were chatting, and just like them, the Leicester City fans on the other side were chatting.

Amid the media's overwhelming pre-season ridicule and suppression, their originally good mentality had been completely shattered, and they really lacked a lot of confidence in their own team.

"If it is difficult to win against Sunderland at home, it will be really difficult to avoid relegation in the future."

"Ranieri doesn't know if he has anything. Why does it feel like the whole world thinks he's not good?"

"Vichai is a good boss and his love for Leicester City is real, but he really has no experience in hiring a coach."

"What can be done about this? Who made the former head coach scandalized during pre-season training..."

"Well, I hope the boys can put in a good performance and let us warm up our mood."

Leicester City fans continued to play and sing the team anthem and wave the team flags in their hands.

But there was some looming worry in everyone's eyes.

At this time, in the VIP box of the stadium.

Leicester City owner Vichai is sitting here, next to Chen Yufeng's father Chen Binghua.

For both of them, they have relatively the same industry experience and both have Chinese blood flowing through them.

Becoming friends is naturally a quick thing.

Of course, the results Vichai has achieved in business cannot be compared to Chen Binghua.

"I heard from Ranieri that Yufeng has performed well recently."

Vichai only spoke a little bit of Chinese and could only communicate with Chen Binghua in English.

"Haha, I saw he was selected for the squad."

Chen Binghua smiled, there was not much movement in the depths of his eyes, he just said a polite word and followed Wei Chai's words.

He naturally did not believe what was expressed in the words.

He has experienced a lot of things like his son being selected for the squad before, but he has never waited until he actually appeared.

Therefore, he must be in a very calm mood.

"In fact, apart from business considerations, I certainly hope that Yufeng can have some position in Leicester City. It depends on whether Mr. Ranieri gives him a chance."

Vichai saw what Chen Binghua was thinking and paused for a while before saying, "Being selected for the squad today actually explains a few things."

"I had absolutely no instructions in this regard, it was just Mr. Ranieri's personal opinion."

Vichai said something that surprised him, "We only use some of Chen Yufeng's moments in daily training to operate the Huaxia fan account."

"We will not rely on the news of the big list to attract the attention of Chinese fans." Vichai was really stunned when he heard the news that Chen Yufeng had entered the big list.

His first reaction was that his son asked for it, but after asking his son Ayavat, this possibility was erased.

It was indeed Ranieri who selected him!

This may indicate that Ranieri seems to have some intention of using this player and does not treat him as a marginal figure!

Well, even Vichai can't figure out what kind of medicine Ranieri is selling in his mind now, but at least the conversation between him and Chen Binghua will not be so awkward because of this.

"Oh, really?"

Chen Binghua's expression changed, and a certain point in his heart that had been dusty for a long time was suddenly touched.

"Yes, so just wait and see, maybe he will make his debut within a few games."

Vichai took a sip of tea and said this with a smile.

At this time, in the on-site studio, broadcast platform commentators from various countries also started pre-match reports.

"The opening match of the 1516 Premier League season, Leicester City's home game against Sunderland is about to start. For the two relegation teams, this is a good opportunity to strive for three points!"

"Let's see who will have the last laugh in this showdown!"

"In this game, Ranieri followed the [-]-[-]-[-] formation that was commonly used in warm-up matches, and the lineup did not change much."

"Goalkeeper Schmeichel, two full-backs De Laet and Schlupp, and the center back partner is Morgan and Huth."

"The four midfielders, from left to right, are Mahrez, Drinkwater, Andy King and Albrighton."

"Mahrez, the team's strongest attacker last season, was rarely placed on the left. I don't know what Ranieri's new arrangements are."

"As for the forwards, Vardy is paired with Shinji Oka, who recently joined in the summer window, at the front."

"Sunderland..."

When all the major commentators are competing to introduce the situation before the game.

In a small studio in the corner, two commentators from China's Sina Sports, Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu, two Premier League commentators, are also here to provide fans with first-line news.

"We saw that Chen Yufeng, a veteran whose name is rarely heard, appeared on the Premier League match list again after a long time."

"Even though our fans may have given up hope, we may still have to pray for him in our hearts, hoping that he can have the opportunity to complete a Premier League appearance before the end of his career."

Zhan Jun's iconic voice sounded, with some regret in his words.

The instructor Zhang Lu next to him was usually a flattering character. At this time, he nodded and said: "Yes, even once."

In the studio, there was an endless stream of comments from fans.

Even though they kept saying that they could no longer wait to watch Chen Yufeng's game, some fans who were disbelieving or bored came over.

"I just wanted to see his expression sitting on the bench for a whole game."

"If we had no intention of letting him play in the first place and kept bringing him to the squad, then I think Ranieri is quite disgusting, using this to attract the attention of Chinese fans."

"Yes, it always makes us sleep hard. There is always a little bit of expectation in our hearts."

"Let's see, Leicester City may be relegated soon anyway. Once this team is relegated, teams in the five major leagues will definitely not be able to ask for Chen Yufeng anymore. Let's see how long he can last."

"A ten-year-old Leicester City fan suddenly showed up."

"Oh, I'm willing to use my ten years of life in exchange for Chen Yufeng's appearance."

"..."

Looking at these barrages, Zhan Jun pursed his lips, and then set his eyes on the stadium.

Not long after, with the simple pre-game ceremony and side-picking ceremony completed, the game officially began.

"As the referee blows his whistle, the game officially begins!"

"What you are watching now is the Premier League 1516 season live broadcast for you by Sina Sports. Watch the Premier League and go to Sina. Let's look forward to Chen Yufeng's debut this season!"

　Please give me some votes! !Recommended monthly ticket! !Also, I hope you all will read it every day!
