Star Card System

During the second day's training to adapt to the field, Leicester City had an accident.

Mahrez's pass accurately found Xia Xing who was advancing from the back point, and Xia Xing shot in front of the goal!

The ball went into the net accurately!

Going in is certainly a good thing, which means that Xia Xing is in good shape.

But Xia Xing collided with Schmeichel!

Xia Xing poked in front of the goal, and Schmeichel made a desperate save!

The two collided with each other!

In an instant, they fell to the ground!

Damn it! ! !

Ranieri on the side of the court felt that his brain was about to explode!

Shakespeare was even crazier: "The team doctor is coming!"

As he said, the two also rushed up with the medical team to check.

At this time, the Leicester City soldiers had no time to train, and all surrounded the two.

Van Persie, who was very close to them, saw it clearly, and he sighed secretly.

Trouble.

Just now, Xia Xing poked and shot, and his ankle was twisted.

Schmeichel was kicked in the wrist by Xia Xing again.

The injuries of these two people are very troublesome...

Ranieri arranged Shakespeare to continue to organize player training, and he personally took two players to Milan's San Giorgio Central Hospital.

Ranieri has a close personal relationship with the dean there.

After the examination, the situation of both was not too optimistic.

Schmeichel was better, with a slight wrist sprain, which might affect the action of strong saves, but the overall problem was not big.

Xia Xing's situation was not optimistic.

He twisted his ankle and got into trouble.

The doctor called Ranieri aside and whispered: "It is expected to take about half a month to recover."

"What?" Ranieri was shocked! He lowered his voice in an instant, "Half a month? So pessimistic?"

The doctor shook his head: "This is already the most optimistic situation. After a week, you can probably do ball training, but don't think about high-intensity games. There is no hope."

"Fxxk!"

Ranieri, who has always been good-tempered, also swore.

It doesn't make much sense to stay in the hospital. It's better to go back to the hotel to recuperate.

Schmeichel can walk back directly, but Xia Xing still needs help.

After sending Xia Xing back to the room, everyone else left, only Ranieri remained.

He was just thinking about this question.

Should he tell Xia Xing the truth?

In the end, he decided to tell the truth.

"Xia, your condition is not optimistic. The doctor just told me that you need to rest for about half a month before you can recover. But we only have six days left before the Champions League final..."

Ranieri stared at Xia Xing's face, he was worried that Xia Xing could not bear the blow.

But there was no fluctuation on Xia Xing's face.

"Okay, I know, thank you for telling the truth."

"Then you should have a good rest first, and we will talk about it later if there is anything."

"Okay."

Closing the door, Ranieri sighed in a low voice.

It's over.

For this team, Xia Xing is a soul-like figure.

Leicester City is also very strong without Xia Xing. Ranieri even thinks that even without him, the team has a chance to hit the league championship this season.

But if there is no Xia Xing, this season's Champions League journey will definitely not be so long.

Now Xia Xing is injured, and the team is in trouble.

In terms of team strength, this final is a world of difference from Real Madrid.

There is only a difference between having Xia Xing and not having Xia Xing.

There is a little hope.

In this Leicester City team, Xia Xing has brought hope to the team countless times.

Even when the team fell into the abyss, Xia Xing pulled the team back to the light countless times.

The expectations and trust of his teammates have reached an unprecedented level.

Now that Xia Xing is injured, the team's combat effectiveness has not just dropped one or two steps.

It is a cliff-like decline.

In the conference room of the hotel, the Leicester City coaching staff held a serious meeting.

The theme is very clear.

How will Leicester City play the Champions League final without Xia Xing?

No one spoke.

Even Ranieri didn't know what to say.

No players participated today. Similar meetings in the past would bring the three captains of the team, but not today.

This is an internal meeting of the coaching staff. Regarding Xia Xing's situation, Ranieri does not want the players' mentality to be turbulent.

He needs to arrange everything in advance.

But at this moment, looking at the silent crowd, Ranieri was also very depressed.

He looked at Shakespeare: "Dude, do you have any good suggestions?"

Shakespeare is usually optimistic and cheerful, but today he also looked serious.

"Without Xia, just find someone to replace him.

"For example, Drinkwater, he is also good at both offense and defense, and has a long shot,

"He is definitely a first-class midfielder in the Premier League, and he can take on greater responsibilities.

"The position on the left side, but let Albrighton start,

"He has excellent physical fitness and strong ability to attack on the wing.

"In terms of defense, Kante still covers a large area,

"But the two full-backs will have to reduce the number of assists, after all, our defensive strength is insufficient.

"And on the front line, I suggest sending Ulloa, his ability to return to defense is better,

"It can make up for the midfield defense..."

Shakespeare was talking, and suddenly shut up.

Ranieri asked: "What's wrong?"

Shakespeare smiled bitterly: "I suddenly felt that without Xia, the team needed repairs and adjustments in many places. I knew that Xia was extremely important to the team, but I didn't expect that his importance covered every aspect of the team. , covering every aspect of offense and defense.”

Everyone was silent again.

Yes, the importance of Xia Xing is simply unparalleled.

He is the core organizer of this Leicester City team, and he can always be seen on both offense and defense.

In defense, he sits in the defensive midfielder and uses his excellent body, speed and defensive skills to make the opponent's offense invisible.

When attacking, his breakthrough from the left is extremely sharp, and his advancement from the middle is also extremely threatening.

There is also a precise long-range shot and top-notch free kicks, which are Leicester City's weapons to destroy the city.

All of this is a combination of the strengths of many other players.

Moreover, he has been in excellent physical condition throughout the season and has not even suffered any injuries, which is the most rare thing.

And now, he's hurt.

The goalkeeper coach muttered in a low voice: "I have been fine for the entire season, but ended up getting injured on the training ground before the final. It's like some kind of curse..."

Ranieri looked serious: "In addition to adjusting the lineup, there is one more thing to do, and that is to select a suitable substitute as soon as possible to replace xia in the big list."

Shakespeare still wanted to insist: "Does it mean that xia won't be able to appear for a minute?"

Ranieri took a serious breath and spoke slowly.

"Maybe a minute, maybe more, but I don't want him to play.

"Xia is an extremely talented genius, a super genius that I have never seen in my coaching career.

“I don’t want him to play injured and leave hidden problems that will ultimately affect his future career.

"Rather than winning a game, I want to see him go well throughout his life."
