Chapter 165 The familiar feeling is back

Stepping on the grass and looking at the Burnley players on the opposite side, Xia Xing felt very special.

The familiar feeling is back.

The feeling of playing in the Championship last season seems to be back.

It is really interesting to play against old opponents in the Premier League.

The referee whistled and the game began.

Burnley lined up a 4-4-1-1 formation today and has been defending since the start.

Shakespeare on the sidelines shrugged: "These guys are getting more and more cowardly. When they were in the Championship, they often lined up three forwards, but now they only have one forward."

Pearson picked up the notebook in his hand: "They also want to attack, but they can't. Look at their league ranking, second from the bottom, the Premier League is not that easy to play."

Shakespeare smiled: "Hearing you say that, it seems that our Leicester City has rich experience in the Premier League."

Pearson also smiled.

Yes, as a newly promoted team, the situation of Leicester City and Burnley should be similar.

But, it is much worse.

One team is second to last in the league and has started working hard for relegation early.

One team is at the top of the league, and there are countless possibilities this season.

When the two teams meet again, both sides are quite uneasy.

However, Burnley is not unconvinced.

After all, they couldn't beat Leicester City in the Championship.

Now Leicester City is in good shape, sweeping even the big 4 teams in the Premier League, let alone them.

So they honestly lined up in the iron bucket formation in this game.

Keeping a draw and getting one point is quite satisfactory.

From the first minute, Leicester City pressed Burnley.

Wave after wave of fierce attacks made Burnley's goal shaky.

But they just didn't lose the ball.

Facing the iron bucket formation, Leicester City didn't have a good way and could only continue to attack.

But soon, the goal came.

In the 16th minute of the game, Burnley, who had been defending for a quarter of an hour, finally loosened its defense.

Xia Xing sprinted with the ball on the left and shook off two defensive players in succession.

Get out of the way and prepare to cross the ball!

Crosswood, Conokate and other players in the middle were already in position.

However, this time Xia Xing's pass went straight to the far side of the penalty area!

Andy King jumped high at the back post and headed the ball!

The ball went into the net!

1 to 0!

When Xia Xing advanced along the left, Andy King had already run to the right.

He completed a crossover with Xia Xing.

He was not a strong header, so the Burnley players ignored him.

Just a little negligence caused a goal.

After scoring one goal, the second goal came soon.

Five minutes later, Xia Xing accelerated with the ball on the left again.

This time he decisively crossed the ball to Chris Wood!

In the penalty area, his high point is very advantageous!

Jumped high and headed the ball!

The ball went into the net!

2 to 0!

Leicester City scored another goal!

With two goals in hand, Leicester City opened up even more.

Several consecutive fierce attacks made Burnley unable to raise their heads.

In the 36th minute of the game, Xia Xing made a long diagonal pass and accurately found Connockate in the penalty area.

Connockate turned and shot!

The ball went into the net!

3-0!

Leicester City is completely stable in this game!

In the live broadcast room, Alan Shearer praised it endlessly.

"Only a few months have passed, and the situation of both sides has changed dramatically.

"Last season in the Championship, Leicester City and Burnley were evenly matched.

"Even if Leicester City always wins, the advantage is not particularly large.

"But now it seems that the two sides are no longer on the same level.

"One is a team that is about to win seven consecutive Premier League games,

"The other is a newly promoted team that is looked down upon by countless fans and struggling in the relegation zone,

"Both are from the Championship,

"The difference is not ordinary. "

Carragher next to him added: "In fact, the biggest difference between the two sides is still the midfield. "

Alan Shearer: "How do you say? ”

Carragher: “Leicester City only has one more player, Xia, than Burnley, that’s all. If Xia was a Burnley player, then maybe Burnley would be leading by three goals in this game.”

Although he had always had some complaints about Leicester City, facing Xia Xing’s outstanding performance, Carragher still made an objective evaluation.

Alan Shearer nodded.

“Yes, now these three goals, all the assists were from Xia.

“At this pace, this season’s Premier League assist king must be Xia.”

The two commentators chatted, very relaxed.

The game was intense, but there was no suspense.

At the end of the first half, Leicester City maintained a 3-goal lead.

In the locker room, Pearson introduced some details of the opponent.

Although the team was leading by three goals, Pearson was still rigorous.

Until the victory is won, it is not a sure win.

But Xia Xing was a little distracted.

He silently opened the system and checked a task.

【Tasks five and six: 1. Keep the opponent scoreless. 2. Complete the goal. 3. Complete assists. 4. The sum of goals and assists is not less than 4. 】

【Task time: Complete all 4 conditions in the task at the same time in one game. 】

【Task rewards: 1. Roberto Carlos card, S level. 2. Cafu card, S level. 】

There is a chance to achieve this in this game!

In fact, in the third round of the English League Cup, Xia Xing almost achieved this task.

In that game, Leicester City defeated the opponent 5-0, and Xia Xing contributed four assists.

And it was also a zero seal.

However, he did not score.

The second condition of this task was not achieved.

It's a pity.

And now, he has another chance.

If he can score in the second half and guarantee a zero seal, then it will be stable!

"xia? xia?"

"Hmm?"

Pearson saw that Xia Xing was a little distracted, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Are you okay? Do you want to..."

"I don't want to rest, I'm fine!"

Xia Xing was firm.

What a joke, I'm still waiting to brush the data to achieve the task, where is the time to rest.

"Oh, that's good, you continue to control the midfield and grasp the rhythm in the second half."

"Okay."

The second half of the game started, and Xia Xing contributed assists again at the beginning.

A long pass went straight to the interesting right side, looking for Knocket again!

After receiving the ball, the latter took a slight lead and kicked the ball from the penalty area line!

The ball shot into the far corner of the goal!

4-0!

Leicester City scored another goal!

There was another round of applause at the King Power Stadium.

Knocket, who scored twice, excitedly rushed to Xia Xing and hugged him tightly.

"Xia! Your pass is great!"

Surrounded by his teammates, Xia Xing was happy, but he was still planning.

I can't stay behind, I have to find a chance to go up later.

I have to score a goal.

In the next period of time, Burnley pressed forward.

They were already 4 goals behind, what if they didn't press forward?

Are they waiting to lose more balls?

If he continued to defend passively, he would probably be scolded to death by the fans.

But as soon as they pressed forward, Xia Xing's situation changed again...
