Chapter 144 Strategic Abandonment

The team is leading by three goals, which is considered stable.

In fact, Xia Xing had some ideas just now.

He should have added a striker earlier.

The strength of the two central defenders on the opposite side is much higher than that of other teammates. If there is one more striker, they will be unable to take care of themselves.

Moreover, 4-4-2 is too conservative to play against a team of this level.

However, Pearson still has the mentality of a weak team.

After all, he has been used to it for many years in the English Championship and it is difficult to change.

But in the end, he adjusted the formation and it was effective.

Xia Xing finally felt at ease.

He can brush up the data.

In fact, he has accumulated a free kick assist and a long pass assist from 30 meters away.

There is something to gain.

In the 71st and 78th minutes of the game, Xia Xing took the initiative to take the penalty for Leicester City's two free kicks outside the penalty area.

The first shot had power and accuracy, but the speed was still a little short, and was hugged by the goalkeeper.

The second shot pursued speed and accuracy, but the power was not enough, and was punched out by the goalkeeper.

And both shots had no arc.

It seems that the set-piece data in 69 minutes is still not good enough...

In the 83rd and 87th minutes of the game, Xia Xing made two long passes to assist, and the score became 5-0.

However, the distance of these two assists was less than 30 meters, and it was a pity that they could not continue to refresh.

But it was okay, after all, there would be opportunities in the future.

The referee whistled and the game ended.

In the first game of the League Cup this season, Leicester City won easily.

Not only did they win the game, but the main players also got a rest.

Leicester City did not strategically give up a certain battlefield this season.

Let's wait and see.

Four days later, on August 31, the King Power Stadium once again welcomed Premier League opponents.

In the third round of the league, Leicester City ushered in the challenge of the giants Arsenal at home.

In the first three rounds of this season, the opponents were all teams ranked in the top five last season.

Leicester City is under a lot of pressure.

But they have already won Chelsea and Everton, and now the team's confidence has increased greatly.

Moreover, they had beaten Arsenal in the FA Cup last season.

Facing the defeated opponent, Leicester City players are looking forward to winning again.

That's right, to win again.

Even a draw is impossible.

We must win!

Compared with Leicester City's eager eyes, Arsenal is looking forward to this game.

Arsenal, who is aiming to win the championship this season, also won two consecutive victories at the start of the season.

Wenger has not touched the Premier League championship for many years, and they are determined to win this season!

In this game, Arsenal lined up a 4-1-4-1 formation.

Goalkeeper Szczesny,

Four defenders Monreal, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Debuchy,

Single defensive midfielder Flamini,

Four midfielders Ozil, Ramsey, Cazorla, Sanchez,

Single striker Sanogo.

In this game, Arsenal started the fierce attack mode.

From the first minute of the game, Arsenal played against Leicester City.

In the first 20 minutes of the game, Leicester City even had only one shot.

The frequent short passes made the fans excited and it was very enjoyable to watch.

"Flamini controls the ball in the backcourt, and Ulloa steals it!

"Flamini knocks it horizontally to the left!

"Monreal receives the ball and pushes it forward!

"Ozil knocks it horizontally to the middle!

"Ramsey knocks it horizontally again!

"Cazorla passes it diagonally forward!

"Sanchez enters the penalty area!

"Knock it back at the bottom line!

"Inverted triangle pass!

"Ramsey follows up with a volley!

"The ball slips out of the goal!

"Just a little bit short!"

Arsenal's exquisite passing cooperation made countless fans in the stands excited.

"This time Arsenal launched an attack from the right!

"Derbyshi rushed through the midfield with the ball!

"Knock it horizontally to Flamini!

"Quickly move forward!

"Flamini decisively passes it diagonally!

"A wonderful two-on-one!

"Derbyshi receives the ball and continues to knock it horizontally!

"Ramsey receives the ball!"

"Sanchez sprints along the right!

"But Ramsey didn't pass it to him!"

"Short pass to the left front!"

"Ozil followed up with a kick!

"The ball hit the side net!

"This cooperation is so beautiful!"

Similar continuous short passes are everywhere, and the away fans at the King Power Stadium are extremely optimistic about winning the game.

But for Leicester City fans, they are also very confident in their team.

After all, they have won two consecutive Premier League games!

And today Leicester City still maintains a solid defensive momentum. Although Arsenal's offensive is fierce, several short passes have failed.

After last season's confrontation, Pearson now has some experience facing Arsenal.

It is absolutely useful to use fierce tackles to deal with these technical players.

Although it seems a bit unfair, it is the most effective for a small team like Leicester City.

"Ozil's pass accurately found Sanogo who was advancing!

"Sanogo's powerful shot in the penalty area!

"Captain Morgan shoveled the ball out!

"Leicester City escaped!"

Morgan defended Sanogo himself and perfectly blocked the opponent's shot.

"This time it's an attack from the right!

"Sanchez rushed forward with the ball!

"He shook off Mahrez who was trying to steal the ball!

"Cut inside again!

"Bypassing De Laet!

"Konchesky rushed out of the penalty area and made a tackle!

"Sanchez quickly kicked the ball outside the penalty area!

"The ball went straight into the dead corner!

"Schmeichel jumped up and punched out!

"Leicester City once again kept the goal intact!"

Although the consecutive fierce defenses did not cause any harm to the Arsenal players, they left a big psychological shadow on their teammates.

In addition to this game, there is another thing.

Just as the national team match day is about to begin.

Many players will report to the national team after this game.

And they will also compete for the main position of the national team.

At this time, you must not get injured.

So many stars are appropriately conservative in this round of games.

For example, several stars of Arsenal.

Ozil, Sanchez, none of them played at the top level.

Ramsey has just returned from injury and tried not to have strong physical confrontation with Leicester City players.

In this way, Leicester City has the advantage in momentum.

At the end of the first half, the two sides were still 0-0.

In the second half, Leicester City scored right after the start!

However, the scorer surprised themselves!

"Xia intercepted Arsenal's short pass in the midfield!

"The prediction of this interception was very accurate!

"Xia made a long pass straight to the penalty area!

"Vardy's shot was saved by Szczesny!

"It's a corner kick!

"Xia took the penalty again, and this time the penalty went straight to the strong Ulloa!

"Ulloa headed the ball!

"The ball flew to the far end!

"Hit the goal post!

"Arsenal escaped...

"Wait!

"The ball bounced back and hit the Arsenal player,

"Bounced into the net!

"1 to 0!

"Leicester City is leading!

"Let's see which unlucky guy scored an own goal?

"Oh!

"It's Mr. 50 million-Ozil!

"He is so unlucky!"
