Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 264 Kneel down and celebrate in a cool way! Boom! ! (asking for monthly ticket)

"Standing on this field, you have been written into the history of Leicester City."

In the locker room, Ranieri looked at the players and gave his final encouragement, "History will record this day, September 9th, when the Blue Fox first landed in the Champions League."

"But at the end of the record, whether you get a good start or lose the first game unfortunately, it all depends on you."

"You will be the writers of this history, so please write carefully."

"Leicester City..."

Ranieri turned up the volume and looked around every player. In the end, everyone shouted together, "Come on!!"

The atmosphere in the entire locker room was aroused at this moment, and everyone's eyes were filled with the desire to win.

They stood up and walked out of the locker room, all the way to the players' tunnel.

Chen Yufeng walked at the front wearing the captain's armband and stopped behind the referee team, waiting to come on.

He originally thought that the little caddy Linda would also come today, but it turned out that it was another person standing here.

Suddenly thinking of that cute yet annoying child, a smile appeared on Chen Yufeng's lips.

He then set his sights on the queue in Bruges.

This team has already been replaced. There are no old players anymore, and he doesn't know anyone standing here.

From the eyes of these people, Chen Yufeng saw several complex emotions, shock mixed with disbelief, and yearning mixed with envy.

Maybe they never expected that their team would produce a superstar-level player like Chen Yufeng.

Most of them are Belgians. They naturally saw Chen Yufeng's amazing performance in the European Cup and have been paying attention to Chen Yufeng.

"Come on." A Bruges player waved and greeted Chen Yufeng in a friendly manner in English.

"The same goes for you guys." Chen Yufeng nodded slightly and looked forward with a smile.

This is not a crucial game, and the opponent is weaker than them, so the game may not be easy.

But this was his Champions League debut, the first time he landed on this sacred arena.

"Kick Barcelona...Kick Barcelona...Kick Bayern Munich...!"

"I'll wipe it...!"

"Thump thump thump thump thump thump...!"

Not long after, the UEFA Champions League theme song was played in the King Power Stadium. This small town stadium played the UEFA Champions League theme song for the first time in history!

History is written from this moment!

“Ohhhhhhhhh…!!”

The cheers soaring into the sky rang out outside the stadium, and the fans were already excited before the players even took the field.

"Beep!" The referee blew the exit whistle and began to lead the players from both sides out.

Under the fiery atmosphere, Chen Yufeng took a deep breath and led the Leicester City players towards the King Power Stadium, "Come on, come on!!"

"Fuck them! Come on!"

"Go, go, go! Fight this game well!"

The Leicester City players were very motivated and walked out of the stadium very excitedly.

They felt that every step they took was particularly heavy, and even the air was filled with a bit of enthusiasm, making it difficult for them to suppress their emotions.

This is the highest level of competition in the world!

Now, they stand here representing the Blue Fox!

Chen Yufeng came to the sidelines and began to choose sides to share the ball with the Brugge captain. In the end, Leicester City got the chance to start.

After finishing all this, Chen Yufeng quickly ran to Leicester City's bench and stood in the middle of the team. Everyone lined up to take a group photo.

Today is an important moment, so naturally it is necessary to take a pre-game photo to record it.

"Come on everyone, let's take another photo after the game. I hope we will have smiles on our faces by then."

Chen Yufeng smiled and encouraged, then pointed his eyes at the camera.

"Click!" The photographer accompanying the team quickly pressed the shutter and captured this scene.

The Leicester City players in the photos all have their heads held high, with a touch of confidence and joy.

After doing all this, everyone ran to their positions, waiting nervously and excitedly for the referee to blow the whistle for the final start of the game.

"CCTV, CCTV, what you are watching now is the Champions League group match between Leicester City and Club Brugge. This is the first round of the group match between the two teams."

Since Sina Sports does not have the copyright, the broadcaster of this game became CCTV. Zhu Xiaoyu, an old acquaintance of the European Cup, was sitting in the broadcast seat to broadcast the game live for the fans.

"This is also the first time in the history of Leicester City that they have entered the Champions League. They still formed a 4-4-2 formation today."

"Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, double centre-backs Huth and Morgan, left-back Danny Simpson and right-back Fox."

"In the midfield position, it is still the combination of Kante and Drinkwater, left midfielder Mahrez, and right midfielder Chen Yufeng. The two of them are positioned higher up and do not have many defensive tasks."

"Double striker Klose paired with Vardy."

"Except for veteran Miroslav Klose, who is a new player from Lazio, everyone else is part of the team's winning team last season. Sitting on the bench are Shinji Oka, Endidi, Chilwell, and Ma Quayle, Albrighton et al.”

"I don't know if they will play in this game, let's wait and see."

Zhu Xiaoyu's voice is also very nice. His explanation is very passionate, but does not make people feel greasy. It is just the right type. "Brugge has a 5-4-1 formation today."

"This is not their usual formation in the league, but when it comes to the Champions League, no matter which opponent they play, they are the weak side, and it is normal to play defensively."

"Goalkeeper Bitler, five defenders from left to right, Drens, Dunswell, Simons, Engels, Van Inry."

"That's a lot of shit."

"Four midfielders, Vanaken, Wormell, Pina, Ischiedo."

"Single striker Abdullah."    "The game is about to start, let's make the final preparations."

After introducing the starting lineups of both sides, Zhu Xiaoyu didn't say much, but sat in the commentary seat and waited quietly.

On the court, the referee glanced at the watch in his hand, determined the time, and then put the whistle in his mouth, "Beep!"

"Bang!" Vardy kicked the ball towards Drinkwater, who turned around and passed the ball to Fox, officially kicking off the game.

Bruges' players did not rush forward, but they still slowly advanced their front line, putting pressure on Leicester City.

"Leicester city!! Leicester city!!"

The fans of the home team immediately became excited and waved their flags wildly, turning the entire stands into a sea of ​​blue.

Ranieri, wearing a black suit lining and trousers, stood on the sidelines and looked nervously at the court.

He really hopes that he can win this opening match.

As for Brugge head coach Predholm, who was not far away from him, he also came to the sideline at this moment, loudly directing the team's pressure and pressing.

"Pinapina! Get in the middle! Pressure him, don't let him pass that area easily!"

"That's right! Well done!"

For Predholm, this is also a very important game.

The Champions League is very important to teams in these other leagues, as it represents generous bonuses and high exposure.

There's no one who doesn't like this kind of game.

This season's Champions League draw is a good draw for Leicester City, so why not for Bruges?

Being assigned to this group, they can also see some hope of qualifying.

As long as we fight against Leicester City and try to get a draw, we will have a chance to face Porto and Copenhagen when the time comes!

If they can enter the top 16, they will have a huge success this season!

In this way, with this beautiful dream, Predholm entered the game.

"Leicester City has a chance to advance. Drinkwater is in good shape today. His confrontation is not bad. His thigh muscles are very strong. He just overturned Pina."

"A through ball!"

"Vardy stopped big! What a pity! Dunsville cleared the ball out of the baseline and Leicester City got the first corner kick of the game."

On the court, Vardy waved his hand towards Drinkwater with some regret, expressing his apology.

Mahrez walked to the corner kick area, raised his right hand towards the center, and prepared to serve.

"Mark man to man! Klose! Get two on Klose's side!"

The players in Brugge's penalty area suddenly became panicked and began to assign specific matchups for man-to-man defense.

They focused their main attention on Klose and Morgan. As for the other players, they just took a look at them and didn't pay much attention to them.

The one guarding Chen Yufeng is Dunnsville, a player with relatively good physical condition who is much taller than Chen Yufeng.

He glanced at Chen Yufeng, opened his arms to keep Chen Yufeng within his control, and was ready to fight for the ball.

"Bang!!"

Mahrez's corner kick was taken, and the football ran towards the center with violent spin.

"mine!!"

From the forward position, Klose and Bruges defender Simons took off together, and next to him there was Fan Yinli who had been interfering with Klose with his body.

Under Fan Yinli's pull, Klose fell down without taking off to the expected height.

"Stop!!" Klose shouted as he fell to the ground, hoping that the referee would award a penalty kick.

As a result, because the defensive players focused on him, the two Brugge players in front of the ball also jumped up and leaked the ball behind them.

Not far behind the three of them, Chen Yufeng and Dunswell jumped up together and headed towards the football.

Dunsville originally felt that this ball was inevitable, but at this moment he felt the terrifying power and oppression coming from his body.

He glanced to the side out of the corner of his eye, and when he looked straight, he could only see Chen Yufeng's chin.

This means that Chen Yufeng’s jump is much higher than him!

Done!

This was the first reaction in Dunsville's mind.

"Bang!!"

As for the second reaction, after landing, he quickly looked towards the goal behind him to see if the football was flying towards the goal.

What made him helpless still happened. The football went straight to the blind corner of the goal, as precise and fast as a rocket.

"Whoa!" The sound of hitting the net was heard later. The Bruges goalkeeper had no way to do anything about this nine-point header, and just swooped out symbolically.

“Yeahhhhhhhh…!!”

Seeing the violent trembling of the net, all Leicester City fans immediately stood up from their seats and raised their hands high.

"Oh...!" Ranieri on the sidelines also waved his hands excitedly, rushed behind him crazily, and hugged Steve Walsh.

The ball went in!

One to zero!

They knocked on Brugge's goal with a corner kick at the beginning of the first half!

The balance is tipping in their favor!

In the Bruges penalty area, when he saw the football hitting the net, Chen Yufeng suddenly waved his right hand flexibly. He felt as if the blazing heat in his chest was about to spurt out at this moment and ignite him directly.

Moving his legs, Chen Yufeng rushed to the side of the court, slid out on his knees with a smile on his face, and pointed at the camera coolly, "Boom...!!"
