After the reversal of PR, Leicester City simply sent out a substitute lineup in the Europa League group match in the middle of the week.

Anyway, Leicester City has already secured the first place in the group with 12 points, and can advance to the knockout stage even if they lose the next two games.

In addition, there is a fierce battle against Liverpool next, and the main lineup needs a good rest after the intensive schedule.

In the fifth game of the Europa League group match,

Leicester City drew 0:0 with Dinamo Zagreb at home.

The substitute players did not attack at all and defended in a completely iron barrel formation.

Dinamo Zagreb's offensive power was not very good, and they could not break the goal no matter what.

0:0 to get 1 point is already the best solution.

Ranieri won 1 and drew 1 in two consecutive games after taking office, which can only be regarded as a small test.

Liverpool is the real test for him. If he can beat him, he is a famous player, and if he can't beat him, he is incompetent.

Even Pearson can beat Arsenal and Manchester United. Ranieri's loss in this game is really hard to explain.

For the tinker, the pressure is actually quite high.

The entire English football world is waiting to see him make a fool of himself.

Fortunately, he had long been accustomed to all kinds of pressure.

After observing and testing during this period, he had become familiar with the characteristics of Leicester City players.

Before the match against Liverpool, he specifically found Lin Mo

"Lin, how do you feel about this position? Is there anything you are not used to?"

"Fortunately, it's just that sometimes when we're attacking, it feels like the advancement speed is slow."

Although Lin Mo can often make lethal through passes, or ultra-long passes, and use [all-round passes] to launch quick counterattacks.

But many times, there are not many good opportunities to use [all-round passes].

If the opponent is pressing too hard, the confrontation is too strong, or the teammates haven't kept up with the running position,

Lin Mo can only rely on short passes to advance.

This will result in him distributing the ball in the back and organizing, and then running up to pass threatening balls. It's very tiring to play both the role of a father and a mother, and the rhythm of the whole team will be slowed down.

Pearson grabbed Lin Mo's life-saving straw and wanted him to handle almost all the balls.

The other teammates in the midfield became tools.

Lin Mo has a high tactical position, but it is difficult to convert it into effective offensive opportunities.

This is why most games are very difficult to play, and Lin Mo has to explode to reverse the situation.

"I think you can move forward a little bit, let Marty or Andy handle the transition from defense to offense, and you are mainly responsible for the key final pass."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, although it seems that your ball possession is reduced, but correspondingly, your running position will be freer, and you can appear in any corner of the front court to form a threat."

"Then I can try."

Lin Mo also felt that having more ball possession was not necessarily a good thing.

Most of the time when the ball was at his feet, he would pass it to the side or pass it back to his teammates.

In order to ensure safety, he would stay in the middle more often and play in a rigid manner.

According to Ranieri's idea, maybe it would really have a better effect!

"Yes, next I will let you practice more in training...By the way, do you have an extra training team?"

"You know all this?"

"Of course." Ranieri laughed,"I care about the players very much, and your training team has been insisting on training, and it has spread."

Then Ranieri said seriously:

"It's a good thing that you guys practice more. You can play more games like circle grabbing to improve your coordination. If you, Paul, Liad, and Jamie can work better together and move more freely in the frontcourt, it might work wonders."

"OK, I'll pay attention."

"Well, Lin……"

Before leaving, Ranieri looked at Lin Mo seriously again.

"I don't want to say this to ordinary people, but for you, you can fire in any situation as long as you think it's a good opportunity."

"Got it, I will."

Many of Lin Mo's previous shots were against tactics.

Now, head coach Ranieri personally gave him unlimited firing rights.

Lin Mo can finally shoot as ordered.

Even if there is not much difference, psychologically, he can feel more at ease.

When there is an opportunity, he can shoot without hesitation!

……

The cold wind blows and the rainy winter in England makes my back cold.

At the King Power Stadium, one hour before the big game,

Leicester City players are warming up on the field.

"Be serious, everyone, and get moving! Otherwise, if anyone gets hurt in the game, don't blame me for not reminding them!"

Shakespeare was very nervous, watching the players on the field warm up carefully.

As time came to December, the upcoming intensive Christmas schedule and the biting winter in England could easily cause widespread injuries to the team.

The team has only one main lineup, and it would be a major blow if anyone got injured!

Liverpool players also came to the scene, and they were warming up at the other end of the court.

At this time, fans were already filing in and looking for seats in the stands.

The atmosphere of the game gradually became more and more intense.

When Lin Mo was passing the ball to Vardy, Vardy kicked the ball across half the court.

There was no choice, Lin Mo had to go over to pick up the ball, but when he looked up, he saw an acquaintance.

I could only see him on TV before, but I didn't expect to meet him face to face this time.

"Lin, you have been doing well recently, keep it up."

Steve Gerrard's Scottish Liverpool accent made Lin Mo almost unable to hear clearly.

"Thank you, Steve, and you will do your best later."

In Liverpool's lineup, the team soul Steve Gerrard started.

Lin Mo never thought that one day he would be able to play on the same field with this Liverpool star and England legend.

The two shook hands in a friendly manner.

Everyone knew that in an hour, it would be a life-and-death battle!

On the court, they were enemies!

No mercy!

……

"Welcome to open LeTV Sports and watch this focus battle of the 14th place in the Premier League!

The dark horse Leicester City, ranked 2nd in the standings, will play at home against Liverpool, currently ranked 6th!"

"One is a newly promoted team that has risen magically this season, and the other is the former English overlord. One new and one old, one red and one blue, what kind of sparks can they collide with?"

Zhan Jun was quite entangled in this game.

He is a pure Liverpool fan, but Liverpool met the team where Lin Mo is!

After struggling for a long time, he still supported Lin Mo implicitly.

After all, Lin Mo is one of us and the pride of the Chinese people!

This battle attracted nearly 30 million live broadcast room heat.

Since Lin Mo led Leicester City to the Super League, the heat of LeTV's live broadcast room has been almost high, with more than 20 million per game!

Many Premier League fans who have abandoned the pit for many years have gradually returned to the pit and cheered for Lin Mo!

He is handsome, plays football well, and is the light of China. Who can not love him when he leads a newly promoted team to beat the giants one by one ?

"Liverpool coach Brendan Rodgers fielded the three-defender system commonly used this season; goalkeeper Mignolet; defenders Kolo Toure, Martin Stekel, and Lovren; midfielders were captain Gerrard, Henderson, Lucas Leiva, and Moreno; the three attackers were Lallana, Coutinho, and Sterling!"

"Balotelli, Ricky Lambert and Sturridge are temporarily on the bench"

"Let's look at the home team Leicester City;

0 flowers for goalkeeper Schmeichel; defenders Richie De Laet, Liam Moore, Wes Morgan, Konchesky; (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!) midfielders Matty James, Drinkwater, Lin Mo, Mahrez, Paul Gallagher; single striker Jamie Vardy!"

Coach Zhang analyzed the lineups of both teams as usual.

Fortunately, after the opening, Liverpool and Leicester City were not too familiar with each other, and the rhythm of both sides was relatively slow.

When Liverpool controlled the ball and tested, Coach Zhang could slowly say

"Liverpool's 3-back system can be regarded as both offensive and defensive. Lucas, Henderson, Gerrard and Moreno are equivalent to the four defensive midfielders, which is enough to ensure the stability of the defense.

Cunidio, Lallana and Sterling belong to the strikerless formation, without a fixed center forward. They will constantly intersperse and connect in the frontcourt to look for opportunities."

"It can be seen that Rogers was very afraid of Lin Mo's offensive role in the middle, and deliberately used 4 waists to restrict Lin Mo. Thus weakening the defense on the wing."

Coach Zhang is worthy of his professional background, and he pointed out the characteristics of both sides.

Anyway, Leicester City's wing is not too sharp. Mahrez and Gallagher like to cut inside, and Lin Mo often passes through the middle.

Rogers gave up the wing and defended the middle, which was a good response.

However, after playing for less than 10 minutes, Brandon Rogers frowned and found that something was wrong.

"That Chinese guy... why is he everywhere?"

In the 8th minute of the game, Leicester City, playing at home, took the lead!

When Liverpool was developing in the middle, Lucas wanted to observe in the backcourt.

Suddenly, Lin Mo rushed forward, making Lucas panic!

Lin Mo took the opportunity to make a flying tackle!

【[Warship Tackle]!

Lucas was held for 0.5 seconds, Lin Mo easily shoveled the ball away and launched a counterattack on the spot![]

"Lin Mo's sudden forward pressure was beautiful! A signature tackle! Leicester City got the ball!"

Seeing Lin Mo get the ball, the Liverpool players had a plan in advance. Gerrard and Henderson retreated to the top of the arc at the same time, compressing Lin Mo's development space and blocking Lin Mo's passing routes on the left and right.

With two teams on the left and right, it was difficult for Lin Mo to break through!

However, the next second, Lin Mo suddenly dribbled the ball and changed direction, rushing to the right with the ball!

"Lin Mo!! He continued to dribble the ball on the wing, and Liverpool had no one to defend him!"

Henderson was stunned, not knowing whether he should go up or not.

When he hesitated and rushed over, Lin Mo had already kicked!

"Beautiful!! The ball behind him is passed to Mahrez! Lin Mo continues to move forward!"

Henderson and Lovren pounced on Mahrez together, and the polo king quickly knocked the ball horizontally and passed it to Lin Mo again!

Lin Mo has already inserted diagonally into the ribs, dribbled the ball and directly broke into the penalty area!

This situation rarely happened before,

Lin Mo was just like a striker, going straight to the goal!!

Stekel was still defending Vardy, and he didn't have time to rush over to block it.

Gerrard reacted, but it was too late to come back to make up for it!

Lin Mo can fully aim and kick again!

【Ordinary shot!】

Yes, just like in training, Lin Mo didn't even need to use any special moves, he just kicked the ball

【The passive data added by Sniper Shooting [Flame Tornado] is enough to make his shooting fast and accurate!

Bang!

"Lin Mo, just hit it!"

Mignolet couldn't save the ball in time, and the ball went straight into the upper corner!

"The ball goes in!!! Beautiful!!! A powerful shot from Lin Mo in the penalty area!!"

"In the 9th minute of the game, Lin Mo helped Leicester City take the lead!"

Leicester City 1:0 Liverpool!

The home stands shouted that name in unison!

"Lin Mo-Lin Mo-Lin Mo——"

Break through the clouds pill!.
