Chapter 224 Leicester City-Scale Earthquake

During the intermission, Ranieri assigned tasks in the locker room, and the most frequently mentioned word was "calm".

Leicester need to calm down.

The injustice they suffered in the last round of competition made them suffocate in their hearts, unable to spit it out, unable to suppress it.

It is this breath stuck in the chest that makes them a little irritable on the court.

The players desperately wanted to get a wild victory at home to vent their anger.

Although Norwich is the third from the bottom, it is far from enough to rely on this impulse to break through their defense.

"We need momentum, not impulsiveness. It will just cost you everything. So, be calm."

Under Ranieri's psychological counseling, the Leicester City players gradually calmed down and started the second half of the game.

Norwich knew that the opponent's midfield control was weak, so he gathered all his troops in the middle to fight with Leicester City.

Rough fouls and frequent small moves made the rhythm of the game fragmented.

Naismith and Ryan Bennett received yellow cards one after another within 4 minutes, which is enough to show that Norwich resolutely implemented the tactics of strangling in the midfield.

Unable to attack for a long time, Ranieri made a substitution adjustment in the 69th minute. Schlupp, who returned from injury, came on as a substitute for Amate.

Since the beginning of December last year, Schlupp has been recuperating for nearly 12 months due to an ankle injury.

As a panacea on the left, his comeback gave Ranieri more choices when adjusting his tactics.

His appearance also indicates that Leicester City wants to look for opportunities on the wing.

Norwich's defensive line was compressed again and again, and the midfielder Naismith stepped forward, allowing the formation to have vertical space so that it would not be easily overwhelmed by Leicester City.

When attacking, Naismith can also become the initiator of the team's counterattack.

In the 71st minute, Kanter sprained his ankle after a midfield fight and was replaced by Andy King.

After Kanter left the field, Leicester City's midfield defense declined, and Drinkwater's defensive pressure doubled.

Without the protection of Kanter, Norwich left midfielder Brady, holding the space behind Mahrez, frequently used his personal ability to break through the wing and pass in front of the goal.

Jerome threatened the goal with a header between two tall defenders, but Schmeichel resolved them one by one.

In the 80th minute, the goal was delayed, Ranieri made the last substitution adjustment, and Ulloa replaced Vardy.

At the same time, Norwich also made personnel adjustments, and Jarvis replaced Naismith, who was physically weak.

A draw is a scene that Norwich would like to see, but Ranieri's team cannot allow this to happen at home.

Under Ranieri, Morgan moved in from the back in midfield, freeing Drinkwater's attacking abilities.

In Leicester City's previous offenses, Kanter can use his personal ability or pass the ball to quickly pass the ball while completing steals in the backcourt.

Drinkwater played a role in connecting and promoting.

But Kanter is now off the field, and no one in Leicester City can play the role of an offensive and defensive metronome in this position.

Therefore, Ranieri's approach is to let Morgan fill in the midfielder to complete the interception and steal tasks, and Drinkwater will sort out the team's counterattack.

What used to be done by one person is now divided between two people.

In the 88th minute, Leicester City finally waited for this opportunity.

Under the scrambling of Leicester City's backcourt players, Norwich forward Jerome made a mistake when taking the ball in the frontcourt and was intercepted by Morgan.

After a successful steal, Morgan's task is to distribute the ball to the nearest teammate, as simple as that.

After Drinkwater received the ball, he made a long pass from the backcourt and directly found Ulloa near the center circle.

Although the ball bounced off the ground, Ulloa still firmly controlled the ball and passed it to Rossi who advanced forward.

Rossi's first start to get rid of the speed is amazing.

The defender's persistent pursuit made the distance between the two smaller and smaller.

When approaching the outside of the penalty area, Rossi suddenly knocked the ball to the left. After completing the change of direction, the defensive player was not completely thrown away, and he made up the defense at a very fast speed.

Rossi used the instep of his left foot, took a step outward, continued to expand the shooting angle, and then shot with his left foot.

Norwich defender Tim Klose, in order to block Rossi's shot angle, extended his right leg and threw his whole body to the left.

Unexpectedly, the moment Rossi touched the ball with his left foot, the ball was not hit, but was buckled to the right by Rossi at a faster speed.

"Damn..."

Tim Klose, who was completely deceived by Rossi's shooting action, stretched out his right leg uncontrollably, and performed splits for the audience on the penalty area line.

[Extraordinarily beautiful, Rossi turned around like Cruyff at this moment. 】

Rossi easily broke through from the right, reached the penalty area, and faced the attacking goalkeeper, with a small swing of his right calf, he jumped up the ball lightly.

This shot is extremely concealed. When the goalkeeper reacted, the ball had already jumped over his head and fell into the net behind him.

The King Power Stadium, which had been silent for nearly 90 minutes, finally ushered in the cheers of a volcanic eruption.

The fans jumped up excitedly, and the entire stadium shook.

[GOAL... LLLLLLL! 】

The narrator covered his ears with his hands, dragging a long tail sound in his throat, explaining with such passion and swaying passion.

[Rossi, in the 89th minute of the game, scored a crucial goal. 】

[The fans have been waiting for almost 90 minutes for this goal. 】

【The movement of him shaking off the defense is so easy, light and easy. 】

【His shots are always so freehand and unrestrained, calm and breezy. 】

[His right foot is like a paintbrush in the hands of an artist, using the simplest lines to outline the most beautiful arc. 】

While Rossi scored, Leicester City University, Geological Hazards Institute.

A group of college students found a trace of fluctuation before the earthquake inspection equipment.

"Huh? Just now, the computer showed that there was a slight earthquake within 10 kilometers of the surrounding area."

"Really? What is the magnitude and where is the epicenter?"

"No, I didn't feel the earthquake."

Several students quickly gathered around, discussing with the classmates who discovered the earthquake in front of the instrument.

"I'm not sure, but there was indeed such a short moment just now. I immediately searched the seismic spectrum to confirm the situation just now."

The hard-working students immediately used the instrument to find out that there was indeed a slight earthquake within 1 kilometers away from them [-] minute ago.

People basically don't feel this slight earthquake, but it is indeed exciting news for this group of students.

When they were about to report to the subject teacher, the instrument sent a signal again.

An earthquake measuring 0.3 on the Richter scale.

Once again shocked everyone.

If it's just one time, it's okay.

But the two earthquakes were separated by three minutes and 56 seconds and came from the same direction, so it is worth studying.

They immediately found the teacher in the laboratory and reported the situation to him.

The teacher sat on a chair with a mobile phone in his hand, staring at the screen excitedly.

His neck became thick and red, and he clenched his left fist tightly.

The white headphone cable is reminiscent of elegance.

"Teacher, there is a situation." The student handed over the data and reported with a little excitement: "Just now, we detected two consecutive earthquakes with a magnitude of 0.3 in Leicester, and we can be sure that it was the same earthquake. Direction, same location."

Sam Wood, who was disturbed, looked a little unhappy.

An earthquake with a magnitude of 0.3 on the Richter scale is not as good as stomping my toes.

"Where is the epicenter?" Sam Wood asked casually.

"It's about ten kilometers to the north. Teacher, I think this discovery is very valuable for research."

"To the north...within ten kilometers..."

Mr. Wood thought for a while, then suddenly realized, gave them a supercilious look, and said, "This is not worth studying."

When the students were puzzled, the teacher turned the phone screen over and said, "I know the direction of the earthquake you mentioned very well. As for the epicenter, I go there almost every week..."

"The real cause of this earthquake, well, it was caused by two goals from Leicester City."

On the screen in his hand, the picture of the 94th minute was played back.

The blue No. 24 player put the ball straight into the penalty area, and the tall No. 23 player fell to the ground and scored the goal.

"Look clearly, this is the goal just now, the number 24, the player who caused two earthquakes, is your senior."

After all, he still has some regrets, not being able to watch the game on the spot and become a member of this "earthquake".
