The first time, the second time.

Chapter 169 Four goals in the first half, a big offensive drama!

“The ball went in!”

“The goal was scored by number seven, Ling~~~”

Accompanied by the DJ’s extended tone, more than 20,000 home team fans at the King Power Stadium said in unison:

“Feng!!!”

As soon as the voice fell, the Blue Fox’s favorite was given the warmest applause!

Amid the applause, Ling Feng ran to the stands on the sidelines and paused.

Then he raised his arms and waved to his parents in the VIP stands!

While waving, he said loudly:

“This is for you!”

The live broadcast camera was also very tactful and aimed at Ling Feng’s parents in the stands.

Ling Shan and Julia in the stands were full of relief.

Julia, who was always quiet, jumped and waved to her son, reminding her husband beside her:

“Hubby, Xiao Feng scored a goal! He is saying hello to us! Come and wave with me!”

Hearing this, Ling Shan, who was relatively calm, also waved with a smile on his face, full of pride in his heart.

This child, A Feng, really brought honor to our family!

This scene was faithfully recorded by the live camera.

Even the commentator Martin Taylor couldn’t help but sigh:

“Oh, what a warm and loving scene!”

“Ling Feng gave this goal to his parents!”

After dedicating his third Premier League goal to his parents, Ling Feng just turned around and was surrounded by his teammates.

Hugs and pats.

After finally escaping from the “siege” of his teammates, Ling Feng saw Lin Huang standing in front of him with a smile on his face.

The two smiled at each other, then clapped their hands and bumped shoulders.

After completing a set of hip-hop greetings, Ling Feng gave a thumbs up and praised:

“Jesse, your inverted triangle pass is so comfortable!”

“That’s it!”

“Let them see that you are definitely capable of playing in any Premier League team!”

Ling Feng’s encouragement just hit Lingard’s heart!

The reason why he was loaned from Manchester United to Leicester City was, of course, for stable and sufficient playing time.

However, Lingard was also holding back a lot of energy in his heart, wanting to prove his ability to Manchester United.

His goal from the beginning to the end was to gain a foothold in Manchester United, and then step by step to gain a foothold and become Manchester United’s starter or even the main force!

And Lingard also believed that he had enough strength to have a place in the first team.

But Manchester United did not think so.

Because if Manchester United really valued him, there would definitely be a place for him in the first team, and it would be impossible for him to be loaned out.

So, in Lingard’s view, this confrontation with Manchester United was a great opportunity for him to prove himself to Manchester United’s top management and coach!

“Well! I will!”

The game was only seven minutes in, and Leicester City scored the first goal at home!

And this result was not expected by Manchester United’s celebrities, all the away fans, or the Manchester United players on the field.

In their view, they are the Red Devils Manchester United!

And the opponent is just a newly promoted team that has just been promoted to the Premier League. Even if they performed amazingly in the first few rounds, it does not mean that they are a team that can gain a foothold in the Premier League.

But now, this newly promoted team dared to launch a fierce attack on them? !

And they scored first!

In fact, most of Manchester United’s celebrities and fans, even after experiencing Moyes’s trough, are still immersed in the former glory of the “Premier League Overlord”!

Although the red-nosed Scottish old man is no longer sitting on the coaching bench.

However, they still believe that Manchester United will return to the top of the Premier League under the leadership of the world-famous Dutch coach Van Gaal!

Van Gaal was obviously a little surprised to lose the ball first.

However, after more than 20 years of coaching, what storms have he not seen?

He did not blame his disciples, but came to the sidelines, applauded and encouraged

“It doesn’t matter! Just play according to our tactics!”

The tactical formation of the diamond midfield is to give up space on the wing to a certain extent.

And it is also expected that the opponent will make full use of the width of the wing to play a combination of wing and center.

What’s more, Leicester City’s offensive firepower is not weak!

In four rounds, they scored eight goals, averaging two goals per game.

In terms of league goals, they are second only to Chelsea, which scored 15 goals in four rounds, and tied with Southampton and Swansea.

Even better than the teams with Aguero and Zverev.

The defending champion Manchester City has one more goal than Ko and others!

The Foxes’ front four, led by Ling Feng, scored goals in all four rounds.

This means that the four front four have the ability to attack the goal.

Leicester City’s offensive firepower is not limited to the single arrow Vardy, making it difficult for opponents to defend.

Not only do they have to follow the striker Vardy who is pulling and running, but they also have to keep an eye on the two wingers Mahrez and Lingard’s cut-ins or crosses.

Of course, the most threatening one is naturally the soul of the team who connects the frontcourt offense and can occasionally shoot from behind – Ling Feng!

Considering that the opponent’s offense is not weak and has the home advantage, Van Gaal is already certain that Leicester City will never retreat to their own half after scoring a goal, but will pursue the victory and continue to attack!

And he guessed right!

After Manchester United kicked off in the center circle, the Foxes continued to maintain an extremely aggressive high-pressure tactic, and the formation pressed forward all of a sudden.

Ling Feng’s voice was extremely clear on the field:

“Press forward!”

“Good ball!”

“Don’t let him pass the ball easily!”

Although Morgan is the captain of the team.

However, the command responsibility of the midfield and frontcourt has long been on the shoulders of this 19-year-old young man since the moment Ling Feng established his tactical core position.

With high hopes from the club and the head coach, Ling Feng also took the responsibility of leading the team’s offense.

With the [God’s Vision], he can observe the running positions of everyone on the court, and thus command his teammates to attack or defend by shouting.

Thus, the entire team is integrated into a whole, and the strength is used together!

Under the high-pressure of the Foxes, Manchester United’s defenders did not dare to hold the ball too much, and could only repeatedly kick the ball from the backcourt and lift the ball to the frontcourt, allowing Van Persie and Falcao to grab the ball.

However, they did not have much advantage in the melee with Morgan and Moore, two muscular men.

The forwards in the frontcourt could not hold the ball at all, and the long pass from the backcourt was equivalent to handing over the ball.

Soon, seeing that his team was suppressed by the opponent and could hardly play effective ground cooperation, Van Gaal immediately came to the sidelines and shouted to Di Maria who was nearby:

“Angel, go back and receive the ball!”

“Wayne! Retreat more and receive the ball!”

Although Manchester United had accumulated as many as six players in the middle.

However, there were only one and a half people who could really carry the ball in the middle.

Di Maria alone, and Rooney, whose ability to have the ball declined greatly, counted as half.

Although it was clear that as long as Di Maria was restricted, Manchester United’s central attack could not move forward smoothly.

However, knowing and doing are two different things!

In terms of individual ability in a single round, the double defensive midfielder partnership of Brother Drinkwater and Cambiasso, who was already 34 years old, could not defend Di Maria and Rooney who was supporting from the side.

In addition, the lateral movement of the two forwards Van Persie and Falcao attracted the defense of the central defenders and created a gap in the middle, allowing Manchester United to repeatedly penetrate Leicester City’s central defense!

In the 20th minute of the game, the Red Devils equalized the score:

Di Maria dribbled the ball in the middle again, and before Drinkwater and Cambiasso surrounded again, he poked the ball to Rooney who was responding diagonally, and then continued to run forward.

Rooney did not take credit for the success, and directly pushed the ball forward without stopping. With a simple two-on-two, Di Maria took the ball again at the front of the penalty area.

At the same time, Van Persie and Falcao ran to both sides at the same time, pulling the two central defenders of the Blue Fox apart, leaving a path for Di Maria to break into the penalty area.

Facing the attacking Schmeichel, Di Maria had a flash of inspiration and directly raised his left foot.

The ball flew into the air, just passed Schmeichel’s raised hands, and fell into the empty goal behind him!

“Goal!!!”

“A genius lob!”

“He is worthy of being the super player who won the Champions League last season!”

“Manchester United has put on the wings of an angel and is ready to soar into the sky again!”

After scoring the goal, Di Maria immediately made his signature celebration move – a heart with wings.

Then, he excitedly rushed to the red stand where the away fans were, and opened his arms to accept the cheers of the fans.

Looking at Di Maria’s back, Ling Feng also sighed in his heart:

I have to say, Di Maria’s lob was so handsome!

However, after being tied, except for Schmeichel who returned to the starting lineup and was a little depressed, the Leicester City players did not think there was anything to be depressed about.

Manchester United is the most valuable team in the Premier League, and they are the last-ranked promoted team.

The value of Rooney and Di Maria alone is equivalent to the value of their entire team.

Price!

And they have fought back and forth with Manchester United in the past ten minutes, which is pretty good.

Besides, the game has just started, and they still have plenty of time to take the lead again.

However, what they didn’t expect was that it was not themselves who took the lead again, but the Red Devils who were in a dominant position!

In the 33rd minute of the game, the two sides fought in the midfield.

In the fierce fight, Manchester United’s midfielder Blind suddenly made a long pass over the top, and the ball flew to the backcourt of Leicester City.

Moore wanted to jump up and clear the ball at the first time, but under the interference of Falcao, he unexpectedly headed it!

Then, Van Persie reacted quickly, followed the ball into the penalty area, and before Morgan stretched his foot to clear the ball, he shot directly in the air without stopping the ball!

The ball turned into a cannonball and blasted towards the goal.

Schmeichel didn’t even have time to make a save. He just subconsciously raised his hand and felt a strong wind passing over his head, and the ball had already gone into the net.

Turning around, the ball just slowly rolled out of the goal and came to his feet.

So far, with Van Persie’s iconic volley, the Red Devils Manchester United have surpassed the score away from home!

Scoring his first league goal of the season, Van Persie was extremely excited and ran directly to the corner flag area and slid down handsomely.

This goal cannot be entirely blamed on Moore.

The reason why superstars are superstars is that they have the ability to change the situation on the field in an instant!

Blame Van Persie for seizing an opportunity that was not an opportunity.

Ling Feng quickly spoke up to cheer his teammates up after noticing that his teammates’ morale had dropped a bit:

“It’s okay!”

“It’s not like we haven’t fallen behind before. Just score one more goal and we’ll make it back!”

Although Manchester United’s four front-line superstars are very aggressive in attack, except for Di Maria, who is new and often returns to defend in Real Madrid, none of them are front-line players who are willing to spend their energy on defense.

Van Persie and Falcao do not have the willingness and physical strength to press in the front court, nor do they have the enthusiasm to return to defense.

Rooney, relying on himself as the team leader and captain, and the lead in the score, does not return to defense much.

Three of the four front-line superstars are not active in returning to defense, which leads to the reduction of the number of defenders in the midfield to three when Manchester United’s offense is interrupted or the ball is lost, and they cannot cover too many areas at all.

Leicester City seized the opportunity of the opponent’s empty midfield defense to switch offense and defense, and launched a beautiful and quick counterattack:

In the 42nd minute of the game, Rooney made a straight pass in the front court, which was intended to be given to Falcao, but was intercepted by Moore.

The latter immediately passed the ball to Ling Feng in front.

Ling Feng, with his back to the goal, [pulled the ball back] and passed Herrera who rushed over at the first time.

Although Herrera pulled his jersey. However, the muscle gain during this period of time has enhanced his weight and body balance.

After a slight stumble, Ling Feng quickly regained his balance.

With Herrera’s grab, Lingard on the left side of the front court entered the empty space without anyone guarding him!

And Ling Feng did not hesitate to pass the ball diagonally, sending a comfortable ball in front of Lingard who was speeding up on the left side.

After getting the ball, Lin Huang got another one-on-one opportunity with Rafael!

Come again? !

This time, I won’t let you pass so easily!

Just as Rafael stared at Lingard’s ankle movement and made up his mind that “the ball can’t pass”, Lingard chose to make an emergency stop.

Then, he directly passed the ball to Ling Feng who came in from behind!

Unknowingly, the Blue Fox No. 7 came to the front of the penalty area again.

The scene of the last goal loss is still vivid.

De Gea on the goal line condensed his eyes and immediately warned his teammates loudly:

“Don’t let him kick!”

At the same time, Manchester United’s defensive commander Evans also shouted to his central defender partner Blackett at the first time:

“Taylor! Go up!”

Manchester United’s central defender partner, the faster Blackett is a type of robber, while the slower Evans is responsible for filling in.

Facing the rushing Blackett, Ling Feng took a step sideways, attracted the attention of Blackett and even Evans, and then sent a diagonal pass into the penalty area!

Vardy, who was not guarded, received the ball and shot low!

The distance was too close, and although De Gea used his unique skill “duck sitting”, he could not stop the ball from flying past his feet and into the goal!

It is worth mentioning that until the ball went in, Van Persie, Falcao, and Rooney, the three front field uncles, barely returned to the defense near the center circle line.

This scene made Van Gaal on the sidelines very angry, and he complained to his assistant:

“Damn, these bastards don’t even go back to defense”

With Vardy’s goal, the two sides are back on the same starting line again!

In the few minutes left in the first half, the two sides seemed to have agreed to slow down the pace.

After all, they had been attacking for 40 minutes, so they had to take a breath.

Finally, with the whistle of the referee Clattenburg, the ups and downs of the first half were declared over.

Whether it was the fans at the scene or the audience in front of the TV, they were all very excited about this first half!

In the first half of 45 minutes, the game rhythm of both sides was very fast, the attack and defense conversion speed was also fast, and the goals came one after another.

The two protagonists, the Red Devils and the Blue Foxes, presented a big offensive drama to the fans, contributing four goals together.

And each one was wonderful!

The fans can no longer imagine what the final score of this game will be.
