Chapter 282 Iron Blood!
Leicester City qualified!
The Champions League group stage qualified!
That night, Leicester City was once again in jubilation!
Qualifying for the Champions League group stage once is nothing for many big teams.
They have the opportunity to play in the Champions League knockout rounds almost every season.
But for Leicester City, this is another major breakthrough.
You know, they played in the Europa League for the first time last season!
The season before last, they were still playing in the second-tier English league!
Such a speed is like riding a rocket!
Countless fans are excited!
They are looking forward to the team more and more!
After winning the game, Vichai personally came to the locker room to congratulate everyone in the team.
And, he gave the bonus that had been promised before.
It was almost all the ticket revenue of the team today.
This big prize is quite generous.
Vichai loves football, but he is more of a businessman.
He knows that the players have dreams, but in addition to dreams, the stimulation of money is also important.
After all, playing football is also a job.
Talking only about feelings and not money is pure hooliganism.
In addition to the players, the coaching and medical teams of the team also made a lot of money.
Everyone was very happy.
This night was a really wonderful night.
After the Champions League group stage, the whole team was looking forward to the next opponent.
The second place in the group makes it very likely that they will encounter a strong opponent.
But so what?
This season, they have won Real Madrid and Barcelona!
They are not afraid of anyone!
Among the teams that qualified from the Champions League group stage this season, there are still many giants, and there are not many upsets.
Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, the "Three Strongest Teams in the Western Super League" all qualified.
Bayern and Wolfsburg from the Bundesliga, both teams qualified successfully.
Juventus and Roma from Serie A have become the glory of the Apennines.
Paris, the French Ligue 1 overlord, won five consecutive games and qualified strongly.
And the Premier League teams have the most qualified.
Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, Leicester City, four teams qualified together.
By the way, don't forget that there is another Premier League giant that was eliminated.
Manchester United.
In the competition of Group B, Manchester United was suppressed by Wolfsburg and PSV Eindhoven, and finally could only play in the Europa League as the third in the group.
The five participating teams in the Premier League will be embarrassed if they are missing any one.
Van Gaal's life is not easy. It is said that the club has had some conflicts with him.
If they can't win some important championships this season, Manchester United's coaching position may have to be replaced next season.
In addition to the five major league teams, many powerful teams in the second echelon also performed well and qualified one after another.
For example, PSV Eindhoven, Zenit, Dynamo Kyiv, Gent and other teams.
They all broke through smoothly in the group stage.
Who will be Leicester City's quarter-final opponent?
Three days later, the answer was revealed!
PSV Eindhoven!
Leicester City was jubilant!
This is definitely the team that looks the easiest to deal with on paper!
Although they performed well in the group stage, it was also because the opponents in the group were not strong, at least not as strong as Leicester City's group.
If facing a giant, Leicester City will be in danger in two rounds.
But facing PSV Eindhoven, the Foxes still have the strength to fight!
What a good signing!
Although the European war will not be restarted until February 2016, the coaching staff of Leicester City has already started to study the Eredivisie in advance.
PSV Eindhoven is in excellent form this season and they have been leading the standings.
There are also many talented people in the team, so they study the opponent's tactics in advance and prepare well.
In addition to studying the opponent, the most important thing for Leicester City at this stage is to consolidate the league points advantage.
Now the advantage of leading the Premier League is obvious, but Leicester City cannot be careless.
Especially in the next few games, they will face Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and other strong opponents in succession.
If something unexpected happens, they are likely to fall.
On December 9, Leicester City ushered in Chelsea, the opponent of the 16th round of the Premier League.
Because they just played in the Champions League group stage, Ranieri sent out a rotation lineup again.
Many main players took turns to rest, including two captains and vice-captains.
Xia Xing wore the captain's armband again.
Facing Chelsea, Leicester City was very relaxed today.
It's not that they don't take this game seriously, but because they are more confident about it.
Because Chelsea is in chaos now.
The league champions of last season are now hovering near the relegation zone. Can you believe it?
A disobedient female team doctor actually caused Chelsea to fall apart.
This is really the most absurd joke in international football this season.
Chelsea still played with all the main players in this game, Hazard, Oscar, Diego Costa, Terry...
But despite this, they still played in a mess.
This Chelsea seemed to have lost its spirit all of a sudden.
Even though Mourinho kept shouting and boosting morale on the sidelines, it still didn't help.
Now the Portuguese coach has lost his prestige.
His tactical requirements and training tasks are strict, and many players are unhappy.
Now he has a conflict with his boss Abramovich, and he has been pushed to the forefront because of the incident of the female team doctor. The team has long been out of his control.
Even though Mourinho is unwilling to admit defeat and wants to turn the defeat around, the team has lost battle after battle.
Countless media are saying that Abramovich may fire Mourinho in the near future.
Maybe after this game, maybe after the next game.
So now Mourinho treats every game as if it is the last game.
If not, so what...
Although half of Leicester City's rotation players started today, they still had the initiative in the game.
As soon as the game started, Xia Xing used a side breakthrough to create a murderous opportunity.
He passed three people on the left, and the cross found Kramaric, who grabbed the ball in front of the goal and scored.
1 to 0!
In the 37th minute of the game, another long-range shot from outside the penalty area by Xia Xing directly blasted away the goal guarded by Courtois.
2 to 0!
In this defense, Chelsea's midfield and backfield were useless.
Oscar, Hazard and other players were lazy in their defense and had no fighting spirit.
Even if Mourinho roared loudly on the sidelines, it was of no avail.
The only one who actively fought for it was William, but he was helpless.
Although Leicester City led by two goals, they still fought fiercely.
Especially defense.
In the 45th minute of the game, during a midfield defense, Xia Xing collided heavily with Matic!
The brow bone bleeds instantly!
But even so, Xia Xing still insisted on kicking the ball forward to prevent the team from being hit by a counterattack!
Applause breaks out at the King Power Stadium!
"Summer!"
"Summer!"
"Summer!"
The referee's whistle sounded, and Xia Xing was helped off the field for treatment by the team doctor.
Alan Shearer in the live broadcast room sighed.
“Chelsea was once known as the Iron-Blooded Blues.
“And now they have become fish bellies.
“That iron-blooded character has become the characteristic of Leicester City now.
"I really don't know what Mourinho is thinking on the sidelines at this moment..."
