"This free kick is on the edge of the penalty area. There are a lot of options!" I saw six tall West Ham United players coming up from the Leicester City penalty area, scattered in the center and right area, posing for contention.
Zhan Jun said with a smile.
"100% of the time he will pass the ball directly. West Ham United doesn't have that many tricks. He can't play that kind of fancy attack!" After hearing Zhan Jun's words, Zhang Lu said confidently with a smile.
It's not that he looks down on West Ham United, it's just that it's the fact, and that's where the players' true abilities lie.
The players are not strong enough, and if your head coach wants to use some complicated offensive tactics, he is simply asking for death and trouble.
Soon, following the whistle of referee Anthony Taylor, West Ham United took a free kick.
As expected, Zhang Lu got it right.
French forward Payet hit the bottom of the ball with the inside of his right foot after a run-up, and the ball immediately flew directly into Leicester City's penalty area.
Seeing the ball turning and flying over the penalty area towards the goalpost, Leicester City and West Ham United players immediately rushed to the landing spot.
The head of the 185cm tall Chu Zheng Te Meow was not even visible, and was immediately overwhelmed by the male ocean horses like West Ham United.
In the stands on all sides, fans of Leicester City and West Ham United saw the ball’s first landing point less than half a meter in front of the goal post. Everyone’s hearts were hanging at this moment, but the hopes of both sides were completely lost.
on the contrary.
After he clicked next to the goal post and saw the ball flying and falling, Schmeichel, who was unsure, wanted to take a gamble and hit the ball away from the goal.
But as soon as he took a step forward with his right foot, he saw Chu Zheng suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and then took off in front of him.
Then, Schmeichel's eyes straightened.
At this moment, Schmeichel jumped up when he saw it. Chu Zheng was still jumping up after being 50 or 60cm above the ground. He was shocked in his heart.
Schmeichel visually observed that Chu Zheng's take-off height should have reached over 70CM.
Although this height is not worth mentioning compared to NBA players, don't forget that the grass is soft.
One second ago!
At the first touch in front of the goal post, the West Ham United striker pinned Morgan under him and took off. From the corner of his eye, he saw that Schmeichel did not attack and he was ecstatic.
As long as he doesn't deflect the ball directly, even if it has a slight flaw, it will still be within the goal range and it will definitely go in.
However, the moment he hit the ball, a white figure suddenly appeared in front of him and shot up like a rocket.
Then Sakho, who was still in the air, watched helplessly as the ball he pushed hit the upper part of Chu Zheng's forehead, broke, and flew upwards and off the crossbar.
"pretty!!!!!!"
"Perfect air interception!!!!"
"This is Chu Zheng! He can always appear in the most dangerous position in defense!" Seeing Chu Zheng's wonderful aerial interception, Zhan Jun in the LeTV live broadcast room immediately became excited.
"Chu Zheng seems to have improved a lot in his jumping on the spot!" Zhang Lu smiled so hard that she almost couldn't see her eyes, but her eyes were still sharp.
"It's normal!" Zhan Jun looked at Zhang Lu, "Other players go to various scenic tourist attractions during their holidays, either high-end nightclubs and bikini-filled summer beaches, but when it comes to Chu Zheng, it's just boring.
training!”
"Yes, in this regard, many players should actually learn from Chu Zheng!"
"Look at Chu Zheng, he takes off his clothes and has explosive muscles, but for some players, I can only see the swimming ring! It's still white!"
"666..."
Fans on the barrage in the live broadcast room also spoke enthusiastically, but most of them were explicit and sarcastic.
In the next game, because it was an away game, Leicester City still played very conservatively, allowing West Ham United to continue to control the ball.
As for Chu Zheng, because of Ranieri's instructions before the game, he put away his aggressive playing style and devoted more energy to defense.
Therefore, in the next ten minutes, although Leicester City did not have a decent offense, Chu Zheng's performance on the defensive end was still outstanding.
Chu Zheng has a very wide range of activities in the midfield.
Because Ranieri gave him a large degree of freedom, he can appear in any position on the field.
As long as he wants, he can even appear on the striker. Ranieri and the new generation of football free men he said are not joking. This Italian is really exploring and practicing.
So many Leicester City fans watched the game and saw Chu Zheng everywhere on the field, and couldn't help but feel that they had an extra player in the midfield.
On the sidelines, Ranieri was very satisfied when he saw Chu Zheng following his tactical instructions.
If a player doesn't listen to the head coach's instructions, he won't want to use him no matter how talented he is.
Not only him, but any head coach in football will not tolerate the existence of such a player. This is a challenge to the authority of the head coach.
During the time spent with Chu Zheng, Ranieri could not be more satisfied with Chu Zheng.
Tactics can be understood thoroughly once explained, and sometimes one can draw inferences and provide him with some different tactical ideas.
He also has a humble personality and is good at handling interpersonal relationships.
Coupled with Chu Zheng's terrifying football talent, how could such a player fail.
Next to Ranieri, the face of Croatian Bilic, who just took over at West Ham United this summer, has become extremely serious.
Leicester City's tactical play was conservative as he expected, but they did not find a chance to threaten Leicester City's goal.
This Chinese midfielder's sweeping ability is too strong.
Bilic stood on the sidelines and could see very clearly that every position Chu Zheng chose on the defensive end did not hit the weak point of their offense.
He watched the match between Leicester City and Sunderland.
Therefore, Bilic knows very well how strong Leicester City's offensive power is.
What does it mean to score 6 goals in one game?
Although Sunderland is weak, it is not that weak.
Even if several giant teams from the Premier League BIG6 come to play against Sunderland, they may not be able to score such a big score.
Especially after the Chinese player came on the scene in the second half, Bilic found that Leicester City's midfielder had been improved.
Intuition tells Bilic that if the stalemate continues, the situation may not be good for them.
Ranieri's first round of the Premier League has already shown the whole UK how sharp his defensive counterattack tactics are.
However, a good woman cannot make a meal without rice. Bilic intends to strengthen his offense, but is limited by the lack of ability of the players at his disposal.
In the 23rd minute of the game, the West Ham United goalkeeper took a set kick outside the penalty area.
The ball spanned the two halves and fell directly towards the top right rib of Leicester City's penalty area, accurately finding Sakho.
Morgan blocked Sakho behind him. When he saw the ball falling, he advanced instead of retreating. He used his strong body to knock Sakho away and then rubbed the ball toward the top of the arc on the right side.
Seeing Zarate rushing towards him quickly, Huth met the ball and made a big save.
On the arc of Leicester City's center circle, West Ham United midfielder Oxford quickly pressed forward and removed the ball.
The accident happened suddenly at this moment.
Shinji Okazaki suddenly rushed back from the right back side of Oxford and directly pushed the ball forward to Chu Zheng, who was running up along the rib channel in front of him.
On the sidelines, Bilic jumped up from the coaching bench when he saw Oxford lose the ball.
"Return to defense!!"
"Back to defense!!!!"
Bilic rushed to the coaching area with a look of horror on his face and shouted at the players on the field.
But it's too late!
Facing the ball that jumped in front of him, Chu Zheng took the ball away with great simplicity.
At the moment of passing the ball, Vardy and West Ham United right center back Winston Reid started almost at the same time on the arc of the left center circle of the West Ham United half. One after the other, with a distance of one meter between the two of them.
Vardy's short-distance sprint speed is the best in Leicester City besides Chu Zheng, and he is also the top in the Premier League.
In less than two seconds, Winston Reid was overtaken by Vardy.
There is a sharp contrast in the speed of the two. Vardy is a supercar, while Winston Reid is a classic car from World War II.
At the same time, West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian has also chosen to attack.
On the left side of the penalty area, 35 meters away from the goal, Vardy arrived first.
Adrian followed Vardy and stretched his foot in an attempt to destroy the ball.
But on the court, sometimes it is still slow even if it is 0.1 second slower.
Under the gaze of 60,000 pairs of eyes at the London Olympic Stadium, Vardy stretched out his right foot and touched the ball again.
Then he broke through Adrian's defense with the ball.
At this moment, Adrian wanted to trip Vardy directly to prevent the ball from being conceded!
But his reason told him it was better not to do this.
If they concede a goal, they may be able to recover it, but if there is one less player in the game, they may end up like Sunderland.
It might be even worse!
So Adrian had to turn around and chase, hoping for a miracle to happen!
For example, Vardy hit the goal post!
But he soon became disappointed!
Because Vardy is very calm.
In the penalty area, after successfully passing Adrian, Vardy continued to bring the ball forward, and then easily pushed the ball into the empty goal, rewriting the score to 1-0!
“goal!!!!!!!!”
"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!"
The moment the goal was scored, the stands gathered in Leicester City burst into cheers!
"The ball went in!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Vardy, Wadao, this inspirational striker from the bottom of the Premier League has lived up to Chu Zheng's pass!!"
"So smart!" After hearing Zhan Jun's sonorous words, Zhang Lu also spoke, "Vardy did not let the ball stop, but made full use of his speed. This goal fully demonstrates Vardy's football intelligence.
!”
"Chu Zheng's ball was amazing. The distance is short or long. It's just enough for Vardy to give full play to his speed!"
On the sidelines, after scoring the goal, Ranieri, who had always had no expression on his face, suddenly beamed.
On the field, after Vardy scored the ball, no one ran to the corner kick area to celebrate. Instead, he turned around and ran towards the center circle.
Running in front of Chu Zheng, he jumped directly onto Chu Zheng's back.
Chu Zheng also laughed non-stop and ran with Vardy on his back to the stands where Leicester City fans gathered to celebrate.
