Chapter 143 Wild Horses Running Wild
In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer cheered excitedly and applauded Leicester City.
He especially praised Xia Xing.
Carragher next to him curled his lips.
"Xia dominated the game today, I admit this.
"But Xia is far from being as flattering as you say.
"I observed his performance, and he is far from a world-class player,
"Especially in terms of handling the ball, he still has a lot of shortcomings.
"The reason why he was able to score the key lore at the last moment,
"is mainly because of his excellent physical fitness.
"He can still maintain top speed at the last moment,
"This is something that most players can't compare to.
"It's better to say that Chelsea lost to Leicester City in this game,
"It's better to say that a group of skilled players,
"lost to a group of wild horses running wild."
This "wild horses running wild" always sounds a bit wrong when it comes from Carragher's mouth.
Although it is not derogatory, it is not a particularly nice word.
However, the Leicester Evening News used this word as the title that day.
"Two consecutive wins! Running wild horses galloping in the Premier League! 》
Yeah, even if it's just a wild horse, so what?
Anyway, they have won two games in a row!
Who said the Premier League is not easy to play?
Isn't this quite easy?
In the past two weeks, everyone in Leicester City has a happy face.
For this city, their team has a good performance in the Premier League, and everyone is proud.
Pearson may be the happiest person after defeating Chelsea.
The two consecutive Premier League victories not only got the precious six points, but also the team played very tenaciously.
In particular, the running-in of several new players was quite successful.
The joining of veteran midfielder Cambiasso makes this young team more experienced.
What Leicester City lacks most now is experience, and Cambiasso plays a big role.
Ulloa's active running on the front line is of great help to the team's offense and defense.
He is the first point for the team to counter-grab on the spot and the starting point of the team's defense. His abundant physical strength and strong body make him an important tactical link in Leicester City now.
Right back Simpson has taken Leicester City's right defense to a higher level with his excellent defensive ability.
Compared to Moore, Simpson's defense is more stable. Now Leicester City does not need full-back assists, but needs full-backs to defend steadily.
In addition to several new starters, Albrighton and Powell are also in good shape and are good rotation players.
On August 23, Chelsea was defeated, and four days later, there was another double match in the middle of the week.
This is the second round of the League Cup, and Leicester City will play away against Shrewsbury.
This team from League One is very weak, and Leicester City is much stronger than them.
Pearson made a large-scale adjustment to the team's starting lineup in this game, and almost all the main players who had just played in the league were rested.
Except for goalkeeper Schmeichel, center back captain Morgan, and midfielder Xia Xing.
In fact, according to Pearson's meaning, Xia Xing could just rest.
But Xia Xing strongly requested to start.
"Xia, are you still worried about us winning Shrewsbury?"
"No, because I am in good physical condition, I hope to play more games and keep in shape."
"Aren't you tired?"
"I'm not tired!"
"This..."
"If you don't let me start, I will also practice more. It's better to play in the game."
Looking at the persistent Xia Xing, Pearson smiled helplessly.
"Okay, you start!"
"Thank you, coach!"
Xia Xing was satisfied.
The answer he gave to Pearson just now was only one aspect.
He wanted to play more games and accumulate experience.
But to be honest, what experience can you get by playing for a League One team?
It's better to play in the Championship last season.
Xia Xing has some small ideas.
At the beginning of the season, he received 10 tasks from the system.
Many of these tasks require data brushing.
For example, complete 5 long pass assists from 30 meters away,
For example, complete 3 long shots from 30 meters away,
For example, complete 5 free kick assists, complete 1 direct free kick goal, etc.
It is not easy to achieve these data, after all, the Premier League opponents are quite strong.
Especially for free kicks and long shots, which are hard-won opportunities in the Premier League, Xia Xing would not rashly do it alone, and would definitely choose a method with a higher success rate.
But now, facing a League One team, this is easy to say.
As long as he can ensure that the score is ahead enough, he can freely look for opportunities to brush data.
In this game, many substitute players of Leicester City started, and they had an absolute advantage from the first minute of the game.
However, they were unable to score.
I thought it was an absolute underdog, but I didn't expect the opponent's defense to be quite good.
Especially their double central defender combination, which was surprisingly stable.
22-year-old Goldson and 21-year-old Ryan Woods, with their excellent defensive ability, made Leicester City's defense fail many times.
Nugent and Chris Wood's many attacks were blocked by the two outside the penalty area.
It was difficult to find the aim under interference when forcing the kick.
Even Pearson on the sidelines was surprised.
"If these two guys continue to develop at this pace, it won't be a problem for them to play in the Championship at least."
Pearson is still very good at judging people. After a few seasons, these two young people got the opportunity to go further and go to a bigger stage to display their talents.
And today is their first battle to become famous.
In the first half of 45 minutes, Leicester City failed to break Shrewsbury's goal with the excellent defense of the two.
This made the fans on the scene cheer wildly.
It was as if they had already won the game.
The commentator in the live broadcast room was also full of expectations: "Is it possible that the hotbed of upsets will have another miracle today?"
There is no shortage of examples of the weak defeating the strong in the English League Cup.
The Leicester City players were a little depressed. They were very uncomfortable being defended.
Xia Xing was even more depressed.
Originally, I thought I could brush up on assists and goals, but in the first half, there was nothing.
Seeing that the team's offense was blocked, Pearson couldn't stand it.
At the beginning of the second half, he replaced Hammond with Knocket and Schlupp with Powell.
The team's formation also changed to 4-3-3.
Just after changing the formation, there was a harvest.
There was a set-piece opportunity on the left side of the penalty area. Xia Xing made a wonderful pass and accurately found Chris Wood at the high point in the penalty area!
Wood headed the ball and the ball went into the net!
The ball went in!
1-0!
The deadlock was broken and Leicester City's goals followed one after another.
In the 55th minute of the game, Powell scored a low shot on the penalty area line!
2-0!
Six minutes later, it was Conokate who came on as a substitute and scored in the penalty area!
The two strikers attracted the attention of the two central defenders of the opponent, and Conokate quickly moved forward!
Easily poked and shot, and scored!
3-0!
Leicester City led by three goals!
It's stable!
