Star Card System

Warming up on the pitch, Leicester City players occasionally looked at the Real Madrid players warming up on the other side.

Especially Ronaldo.

Xia Xing patted Vardy on the shoulder: "Man, you have to score more goals. Look, Cristiano Ronaldo has already scored 6 goals in the 4 rounds of the group stage. If you don't tighten your grip, the Champions League Golden Boot will probably be lost." ”

Vardy: "Don't make fun of me... I want to win the Champions League Golden Boot. Isn't it a dream... I think you have a chance to hit the Champions League Golden Boot. After all, you have scored 6 goals now, compared with Cristiano Ronaldo." Same."

Xia Xing: "Okay, I'll think about it. Then I won't pass the ball to you in this game. I'll take more shots myself."

Vardy: "No, no, no, you should pass the ball to me more. I want to compete for the Golden Boot..."

Xia Xing: "Hahahaha!"

Several teammates laughed and the atmosphere was lively.

Although they are about to face a strong enemy, the overall atmosphere of Leicester City today is still good.

Although they didn't win the last game, they were still in a good mood.

After all, they have a clear lead in the league and don't care about the gains and losses in one or two games.

Especially today, this game is even more important.

In addition, there is another reason why the Leicester City team is in a good mood.

It's today that Kante can finally play against Real Madrid.

In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Kante received an unfair red card and was sent off.

Although Leicester City appealed after the game, it had no effect. In the end, Kante was unable to participate in the first round against Real Madrid.

Now, Kanter is back.

For the current Leicester City team, there is no doubt about Kante's importance.

If Xia Xing is the guarantee for the team's upper limit, then Kanter is the bottom line for the team's lower limit.

With his large-scale running and defensive coverage in the midfield, Leicester City's overall strength has reached a higher level than last season.

This is not only an improvement in defense, but also improves the team's offensive power.

Because of Kanter's defensive ability, Xia Xing also has more energy to devote to offense.

With the effect of mutual promotion and improvement, Kanter and Xia Xing formed an excellent chemical reaction.

From the first minute of this game, Real Madrid attacked with all their strength.

For them, Leicester City's defense is nothing worth mentioning.

Only Xia Xing is slightly more difficult to deal with, but Real Madrid has many offensive points.

This time, Ronaldo and Ronaldo often alternated their positions, just to disrupt Leicester City's defense.

Especially Xia Xing's defense.

In the last game, Ronaldo did little because of Xia Xing's tight defense.

Today, Cristiano Ronaldo and Xia Xing faced each other several times at the beginning, but they did not get any advantage.

In this game, Xia Xing did not engage in technical confrontation with Ronaldo, but directly engaged in physical confrontation!

This is Ranieri's arrangement.

Not only Xia Xing, but all members of Leicester City played very fiercely.

He looked as if he was ready to die and had no fear of getting hurt.

Don't be afraid to wear shoes when you are barefoot.

But not Real Madrid.

They still have the league championship and the King's Cup championship to compete for, and players must not be injured.

So after the first few attacks, seeing Leicester City's fierce tackles, the Real Madrid players slowed down a little.

To put it bluntly, even if we lose the game today, we must not get injured.

You can’t lose even if you lose.

With such a mentality, Real Madrid's momentum today is obviously not in the upper hand.

Ronaldo, who has just returned from injury, is a little timid in playing, and physical confrontation is not his specialty.

And midfielder Isco is not in good condition today either.

Toni Kroos is in the defensive midfield position, organizing offense and responsible for defense.

But the defensive effect is not ideal either.

Although Leicester City faced Real Madrid in this game, they were not facing a Real Madrid that was eager to win.

The one who showed the most positive performance was Cristiano Ronaldo.

After several consecutive breakthroughs with the ball, his subsequent shots were also very threatening.

But it's not much of a threat.

Because Ronaldo does not have a particularly good shooting space.

Even if he and Ronaldo alternate positions continuously in this game, there are many opportunities to avoid Xia Xing.

But, there is Kante!

When Ronaldo was one-on-one with Kante for the first time, he didn't pay much attention.

It's just a small role, and you can get by casually.

But he thought wrong.

Ronaldo pedaled his bicycle continuously on the left wing and suddenly accelerated and sprinted!

Kanter was passed by him!

Just when Ronaldo was happy, Kanter quickly followed!

This surprised Ronaldo!

What's happening here?

This kid's speed and explosive power are not bad!

When being passed, quickly pursue the defense and still block your own offensive line!

Ronaldo didn't give up, the ball moved between his feet!

But Kanter's center of gravity did not move and he still held firm!

Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly started and rushed to the bottom line!

He is no longer planning to attack, and is preparing to make a pass!

But as soon as the ball came out, Kanter tackled it!

The ball flew into the stands!

Ronaldo's offense was ruined!

The stunned Ronaldo turned to look at Kante on the ground. Kante had already climbed up, patted his butt, and smiled at Ronaldo.

The little white teeth in his mouth are particularly dazzling.

Five minutes later, there was another attack from Real Madrid, this time from Ronaldo.

He accelerated with the ball on the left wing, and Kanter stood in front of him.

Ronaldo rides a bicycle!

Suddenly pulled sideways!

Passed Kanter!

But it seems that he didn't pass him completely...

Drinkwater quickly rushed up, and Ronaldo pulled the ball again and passed the water-drinking guy!

But just in this pause, Kante came back again!

Forced kick, the ball slipped out of the goal!

Ronaldo cursed in his heart!

What a tough guy!

Switched positions with James Rodriguez and came to the right side.

Looked up.

Haha, it was Xia Xing.

I was really XXXX...

Facing Xia Xing who completely blocked him in the last game, Ronaldo was a little afraid.

His feet kept moving, but Xia Xing was unmoved.

Compared with Kante, Xia Xing's defense was not as good as the French little guy.

Especially in marking, it was much worse.

However, Xia Xing was extremely fast and had first-class explosive power!

Especially compared with Ronaldo, he was almost the same!

He also had a strong body and was not inferior in confrontation.

This gave Ronaldo even more headaches.

This match was really hard to play...

Throughout the match, Ronaldo was almost surrounded by Xia Xing and Kante, and he did nothing.

The other attackers were not in good form. Real Madrid played a lot in this match, but had few effective shots.

The first half ended with a 0-0 draw, and the second half was still the same.

The score did not change until the 88th minute of the match.

After both sides had just used up their three substitutions, Xia Xing suddenly dribbled forward!

He sprinted along the left side!

Isco in front of him was directly knocked away by his body!

Modric accelerated to catch up, but he was not as fast as Xia Xing!

Xia Xing continued to sprint!

Carvajal rushed up!

Ramos also approached!

It seemed that it was a double-team situation!

Xia Xing decisively pulled horizontally!

He volleyed from the upper left corner of the penalty area!

The ball went straight into the upper corner of the far end of the goal!

Goalkeeper Navas flew, but he couldn't touch the ball!

1-0!

Leicester City scored the winning goal!
