Star Card System

Last season, Sunderland narrowly avoided relegation with a three-point advantage, and their goal this season is still to stay in the Premier League.

But it is clear that this season seems to be more difficult.

In the 30th minute of the game, they were abused by Leicester City 3-0.

And their offense was not in the slightest spirit.

They couldn't even get through Leicester City's midfield.

This made them very frustrated.

In the first minute of injury time in the first half, Vardy took advantage of the counterattack opportunity to score another goal.

This time it was Xia Xing's cross from the side, a 45-degree diagonal pass.

Vardy quickly inserted and poked the ball into the net in front of the goal.

4-0!

Leicester City continued to score!

During the halftime break, Ranieri directly adjusted two positions.

Forward Ulloa was substituted and Van Persie came on as a substitute.

This was the first time that the Dutch veteran played for Leicester City in the Premier League.

As soon as he came on the court, he took advantage of a corner kick opportunity to head the ball and hit the post.

Although Van Persie is not as explosive and powerful as when he was young, his experience is still world-class.

In the 63rd minute of the game, Van Persie finally scored a goal.

This time it was still Xia Xing's cross from the left.

He shook off the defense and broke through to the end line with a precise cross!

Van Persie inserted from the back row and headed the ball!

The ball hit the net hard!

5-0!

The Dutch veteran scored his first goal for Leicester City!

The excited fans shouted his name loudly!

In this team, Van Persie is definitely the biggest star!

Now he uses his performance to tell everyone that he still deserves to play in the Premier League!

And four minutes later, Xia Xing and Kante cooperated in the middle defense and intercepted the opponent's ball.

Diagonal pass to the right!

Mahrez broke into the goal and knocked it across the goal!

Van Persie shoveled the ball into the net!

6-0!

Scored twice!

There was warm applause from the stands again, and Van Persie smiled happily!

I joined Leicester City, which was absolutely right!

With six goals in hand, Ranieri was completely relaxed.

He replaced Vardy with Okazaki Shinji.

He replaced Mahrez with Inler.

In the new season, Leicester City will fight on multiple fronts, and must seize the time to run in the lineup as much as possible.

After the two new players came on the court, they also showed good teamwork.

Several passes and cooperations were very good.

Inler was full of fighting spirit, and a shot from outside the penalty area almost blasted the net.

Okazaki Shinji ran actively, and often ran to the vicinity of the center circle when defending, and quickly pressed forward when attacking, not sparing his energy.

In the 85th minute of the game, it was Inler's long shot that was blocked by the defender and fell at the feet of Okazaki Shinji.

The Japanese striker decisively kicked and shot!

The ball went into the net!

7 to 0!

Leicester City is shining!

On the sidelines of the court, Ranieri was already grinning from ear to ear.

"Today's guys are awesome!"

Shakespeare beside him also clapped his hands until they turned red.

"Yeah, awesome! Awesome!"

Shakespeare suddenly felt a little dazed and recalled last season.

Although Leicester City performed well at that time, they rarely played such a neat game.

They always relied on tenacious defense to drag down their opponents little by little.

And in this game, they actually showed a crushing suppression.

In several warm-up matches before the season, Leicester City only beat their opponents easily.

I didn't expect that as time went by, the team's progress has exceeded my imagination.

Just right!

Looking up at the sky, the blue sky is like a breeze.

In the last minute of injury time, Xia Xing's free kick outside the penalty area hit the goal post and missed the opportunity to continue to expand the score.

And the opponent Sunderland players were already a little numb.

The referee's whistle finally sounded.

Sunderland players walked off the field dejectedly. They wished they could become invisible and completely draw a line between themselves and this game, this stadium and this opponent.

After this wonderful game, Leicester City once again reproduced the miracle of last season.

Ranked first in the league!

No team scored more goals than Leicester City in the first round of the league.

7 goals, it's really amazing.

Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room was looking forward to it.

"I don't know how long Leicester City can stay at the top of the table this season, let's wait and see!"

A wonderful game made Leicester City the focus of this round of the league.

Ranieri quickly won the love of the fans, and several new players were praised by experts.

TV programs often played replays of the seven goals, and the Internet and print media also praised the Leicester City players.

It was so beautiful.

However, for the Leicester City players, the excitement of the day was over, and they were completely quiet the next day.

Continue to prepare for the next game.

They went to the Tbilisi National Stadium in Georgia early to prepare for the next important event.

European Super Cup.

For Leicester City, this game may be the strongest opponent they have ever faced since the team was founded.

No one else.

Barcelona, ​​the Champions League champion, the La Liga champion and the world-famous cosmic team of last season.

In an unfamiliar stadium, Leicester City players played the confrontation game seriously.

Ranieri looked calm on the sidelines, watching the players on the field, and occasionally writing something on the notebook with a pen.

Although his expression was calm, his hand holding the pen was very strong.

Shakespeare next to him was happy, but his brows were already furrowed: "This game is really not easy to play. Isn't it, man?"

Although the two have not been together for a long time, they are very compatible and talk very easily.

Like old friends.

Listening to Shakespeare's inquiry, Ranieri also nodded: "Yes, it is a difficult game."

"Can we win?"

"It's hard to say, anyway it's difficult."

"How about we defend like we did against Chelsea?"

"No, we can't defend."

"Can't defend? So pessimistic?"

"It's not that I'm pessimistic, but I know Barcelona's offense very well. They are too strong. The strength of the MSN combination is world-class, and the attacking power of midfielders such as Iniesta is also very strong. There are also Alba and Alves' wing attacking power... It's really too difficult for us to defend. It's absolutely impossible not to lose the ball."

"Then what should we do? Should we admit defeat?"

Ranieri didn't answer, he shouted in the direction of the court.

"Xia!"

Seeing the head coach waving at him, Xia Xing ran to the sidelines quickly.

"Coach, you're looking for me?"

"Yes."

Ranieri nodded, pointed at Shakespeare, and said to Xia Xing: "Tell your dear assistant coach what you said to me last night."

Shakespeare was a little confused.

What's going on?

He looked at Xia Xing.

And Xia Xing nodded calmly and looked at Shakespeare.

"I have an idea about the tactics for the game in a few days.

"If we defend stubbornly, we will definitely not be able to hold on.

"Then, why don't we attack boldly!"
