Football: A late bloomer, starting with Leicester City

Chapter 90 Lihuaxiang hits the ball king, Mourinho finally arrives (please order first)

The next day, the time came to December 12th.

A faint light shone in Leicestershire, but the overall weather was still very cold, and people on the streets had begun to wear cotton-padded jackets.

Game day has finally arrived.

The cold weather did not stop the enthusiastic mood of Leicester City fans. They set out very early to prepare, and they all wore Leicester City short-sleeves under long sleeves.

Of course, there must be a lining inside, otherwise you won't be able to take it off when you sit on the court.

"When you are smiling...When you are smiling...!"

"The whole world smiles with you...!"

At two o'clock in the afternoon, familiar songs resounded along every street again. All Leicester City fans formed dozens of small groups, singing the team song, clapping their hands, and walked all the way to the stadium.

The cold breath from their mouths could not suppress their enthusiasm, and everyone looked hopeful.

Not long after, the Leicester City bus came over.

All the fans raised their blue team scarves, dyeing the entire street blue.

Aerial photography drones from various media outlets flew overhead, accurately capturing all of this and sending it to major studios.

"Beat them! You can do it!"

"I'm optimistic about you, come on Leicester City!"

"Chen Yufeng, you must score goals. I'll wave to you again with a double-double this season!"

"Oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...!"

The cheers of the fans passed through the bus windows and reached the ears of all the players.

Chen Yufeng looked at them, his body trembling slightly.

He really wants to win and give the team a hearty victory.

Mourinho...

This was also one of his favorite coaches in his previous life, but today, please make way for Leicester City.

They will be the final winners.

Soon, Chelsea's bus also drove from one side and headed straight to the underground parking lot of the stadium.

Mourinho is sitting here with a group of Chelsea players, and outside the window are Leicester fans holding countless small signs.

"Madman, you guys will lose."

"Please keep the three points, defending champion."

Mourinho saw the signs held by several fans and read them in his mind.

His recent mental state has been very bad and his mood is not right.

After feeling a little panic in his heart, Mourinho pulled up the curtains, closed his eyes and rested, and no longer paid attention to the window.

Soon, Leicester City fans began to organize their way into the stadium. As soon as they entered the stadium, they organized a demonstration and pulled out Ranieri's huge tifo.

"Ohhhhhhh...!!"

There are also some small banners, and you can vaguely see the portraits of Vardy, Chen Yufeng, Mahrez, Andy King and others.

This represents their love for every Leicester City player, their support for Ranieri, and their desire to win this game!
"The game is about to start. Players from both sides have begun to warm up. What you are watching now is the preview of the game brought to you by Sky Sports."

Georgie Thompson was on the field with dozens of reporters, recording the game from various locations, "I'm Georgie Thompson."

'Judging from the starting lineup before the game, Mourinho still used the formation of the previous game. '

"The four-two-three-one formation was the key to his victory in the league last season."

"Goalkeeper Courtois, four defenders from left to right, Azpilicueta, Zouma, Terry, Ivanovic."

"In terms of the double defensive midfielder, Matic is paired with Ramirez. This is a trustworthy combination."

"Three forwards, Hazard, Oscar, and Willian. The one at the front is Diego Costa."

"Leicester City..."

On the other side, reporters from The Times were also busy conducting pre-match interviews.

They tracked down Chelsea's star player, Eden Hazard, for a pre-match chat.

"Hazard, how is the team's recent status?"

"It's hard to say what's going on. I can only keep playing one game at a time." At this time, Hazard had not yet gained weight. He looked very capable and was at the peak of his career.

It was obvious that he had not lost his love for football in his eyes and still maintained his passion for the sport.

"We all know that Chen Yufeng in the Leicester City team is currently a Belgian national, which means that he hopes to represent Belgium."

"Do you understand this? Are you looking forward to joining forces with him for future European Championships and World Cups?"

"I know, of course, I have heard his name." Hazard nodded, then hesitated for a moment and said: "I hope to join hands with every outstanding player to fight for the national team."

"Belgium has many talented players on the front line. This is also our golden generation period. I hope he can perform better and be more competitive to sit in that position and contribute."

"Thank you." The reporter thanked him, let Hazard go to warm-up training, and continued reporting.

Everything was in full swing. Even before the game started, many people were already sweating and no longer felt cold.This all proves the high level of attention paid to this game.

One side of the stadium stands.

Lampez and Helena appear here. This is one of the few times the two of them can appear in the stadium stands together.

Due to the responsibility of taking care of children and various trivial household chores, Helena did not show much interest in football before.

Especially after Lampes placed a large bet on Leicester City, this dull feeling even turned into a kind of hatred. She felt that it was because Lampes was too obsessed with this sport that he harmed their family.

But after hearing the shouting outside the window that day and learning that Leicester City had reached the summit by miracle, she felt completely different.

"Will you win?"

Helena looked at the fiery atmosphere in the venue and couldn't help but tug on Lampez's jeans.

Lampes' legs were shaking uncontrollably, and he shook his head and said: "It's hard to say, Chelsea is still capable."

"Come on, if you win this game, you will still be at the top of the list?" Helena asked again.

"of course."

Lampes has studied the schedule and said: "Arsenal faces Tottenham away from home today. I hope they can fight fiercely there."

"As long as Arsenal doesn't win that game, maybe after this game, we will hope to compete for the half-time championship."

"Oh..." Helena still understood some football rules and understood what they meant, and then looked at the stadium with expectant eyes.

No matter what, she desperately wants Leicester to win.

In the Sina Sports studio, Zhan Jun appeared in a suit and Zhang Lu in regular clothes.

"Okay, the game will start soon. Let us finally cheer for Chen Yufeng and Leicester City."

"This season's Premier League has a tendency to be a big fight. Leicester City's sudden emergence, Stoke City, Everton and other teams' continuous strong blocks against the powerful players have made the final championship even more suspenseful."

"Even if I say it is unrealistic for Leicester City to compete for the championship now, the data feedback I have seen really gives me an illusion."

"Hahaha." Zhan Jun smiled, "Anyway, this game against Chelsea is crucial. I hope they can perform well."

"Hehe." Zhang Lu next to him smiled and continued: "Chen Yufeng is almost a double-double this season. This is an unimaginable statistic from any angle. Let's see if he can beat Mourinho's Chelsea in this game. .”

The two commentators continued to report to the audience in front of the screen, exaggerating the atmosphere before the game.

The number of viewers of the game soon exceeded the 700 million mark, proving its popularity in the country.

Crazy Mourinho is also one of the most popular football coaches in the country, with countless fans.

His contest with Chen Yufeng naturally attracted everyone's attention.

"What the hell, Leicester City is still number one now, hahaha!"

"Come on, although I like Mourinho, I hope Leicester City can win."

"There are definitely fake fans in my car upstairs. I hope Chen Yufeng scores a goal, but Chelsea wins. Have you not seen what is going on with Mourinho now? It will be embarrassing after class."

"Hey, after experiencing the setbacks of Real Madrid, the Madman has obviously restrained itself this season, but the previous set can no longer control the players, and these children now are too difficult to control."

"Whatever 21! Come on Chen Yufeng! Double [-] data is awesome!"

"If he scores a double-double, he will definitely be the top player in the Premier League now. At least his performance this season will be top-notch!"

"Chen Yufeng, come on, give Courtois two!"

"..."

These Chinese fans are very excited to see the idols or players they often saw on TV now appearing next to Chen Yufeng.

They now have a strong sense of belonging to Chen Yufeng and have placed all their will on this veteran.

Everything Chen Yufeng experienced would arouse their emotions.

This is a good state, because Chen Yufeng often gets a strong sense of accomplishment and pride because of his excellent performance.

Chinese fans, who have been missing a lot, are looking to make up for it from Chen Yufeng.

There is no doubt that Chen Yufeng's energy and performance influence them and inspire them.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

"Two, one!"

With everyone's expectations, the live game began the final countdown, and all the fans followed and shouted until it reached a climax.

"Beep!!"

The referee's whistle sounded throughout the game. Vardy stood in front of the ball and kicked the ball to Drinkwater behind him.

"The game has officially begun. Audience friends, you are now watching the Premier League 1516 season, No. 16, Leicester City plays against Chelsea at home!"

"Chen Yufeng will continue to start the game, let us look forward to what kind of performance he will have in this game!"

Zhan Jun's voice sounded in the live broadcast room again.

And the battle at Tianwang Mountain officially started in a fierce atmosphere.
