Chapter 59
After Lingard joined, he was mainly responsible for the organization work, which gave Li Lei more room to play.
Although he was leading 3-0, Li Lei was still actively pressing in the frontcourt, gradually putting pressure on the opposing defenders.
He kept trying to steal the opponent's pass in the midfield, striving to create more scoring opportunities, and not only in the midfield, but more often in the frontcourt.
The ball was passed back and forth between Huddersfield's defenders. Just when the Huddersfield defender passed the ball, Li Lei keenly discovered that the opportunity had come.
He quickly accelerated and rushed close to the defender, and successfully gained the ball with a beautiful steal.
Li Lei, who got the ball in the chaos, quickly dribbled forward, with only the last defender left in front of him.
After shaking off the defender, he took a calm shot in front of the goalkeeper alone, and a clean shot shot the ball into the goal. Any action of the goalkeeper was useless.
"gogogogogo!"
"It's Li Lei again. His efforts in the front court finally paid off."
"The Huddersfield defender's mistake gave him the chance to score"
"Let's give him the warmest applause."
At this time, Li Lei opened his arms, as if embracing the cheering fans on the scene.
His move completely ignited the enthusiasm of the fans, and the King Power Stadium erupted in the warmest cheers. Li Lei scored a single goal, which was the first time he scored twice in a game!
In the 60th minute of the second half, Leicester City was already leading 4-0.
But their attack did not stop, and they continued to actively put pressure on Huddersfield.
Li Lei and Lingard organized the attack in the frontcourt, and other players also joined in.
They seemed to want to vent their long-suppressed emotions in this game.
With another wonderful cooperation, Vardy scored and the score was extended to 5-0.
In the latter part of the game, Leicester City got another corner kick opportunity.
Li Lei sent the ball into the penalty area, and Beckford rushed straight to the goal.
He used his height advantage and made a strong flying header.!
"With a"bang", the ball accurately broke the goal!
At this moment, Leicester City was leading 6-0 and completely dominating the game.
When the game was about to end, Huddersfield striker Jonathan Stead finally got a chance.
He turned and shot in the penalty area, and the ball flew to the lower right corner of the goal! Breaking through the goal guarded by Adam Smith.
Stead scored this goal to avoid a complete defeat, and the fans applauded and respected his performance.
But the score could not be reversed. The referee blew the final whistle, and Leicester City finally defeated Huddersfield 6-1 at home.
Due to Leicester City's poor performance some time ago, the media did not pay much attention to them, and Huddersfield was a relegation team and had no appeal.
Therefore, there were relatively few media interviews and reports on this game, and many sports reporters chose to interview other popular teams.
After the game, the mainstream media's reports were also very simple
《Leicester City beat Huddersfield 6-1.
It was just a brief report without describing the performance of the two teams and the key players in detail.
Due to the low media attention, Lingard and Keane were a little disappointed when they came to the training the next day.
"We performed well, I was still thinking if I could become famous with one goal."Lingard said depressedly at Manchester United
"Yeah, especially when we had a good debut." Keane echoed
"But the coach and the fans all recognize us, and that's enough."
Li Lei and Lingard are close in age and get along well on the court. They often train together and frequently cooperate in combat.
After the game, the two would chat together to relieve stress, and gradually, they became good friends.
They can often be seen playing together in the locker room.
At this time, Li Lei saw that Lingard was a little frustrated because of the media reports.
So he went over and patted Lingard on the shoulder and said,"Brother, don't be like this."
"You've just started, and you still have a long way to go."
"You will definitely have more opportunities to show yourself and conquer all media in the future."
"Stay confident and positive, that's the most important thing"
"We believe in your ability and believe that you will become stronger and stronger"
"Your performance today has shown everyone your potential.
Lingard smiled again upon hearing this, and became the cheerful boy he used to be.
"Thank you, Li, you are right, I still have a long way to go."
After this episode, everyone continued their daily training life.
On the training ground, Li Lei and Vardy continued to cooperate in the frontcourt, while Lingard organized the transfer in the midfield to create opportunities for the two.
After a cross, Li Lei passed the ball back to Vardy to score, and with another cooperation, Lingard directly assisted Li Lei to score.
The cooperation between the three of them became more and more tacit and smooth. At the edge of the training ground, Coach Pearson looked at them and nodded frequently.
"The three kids are getting more and more in sync with each other, which is good." He told his assistant
"If they can perform in the official competition, even if it is just a small part, it would be great."
"Our forward line will be very difficult to deal with, which will give our opponents a headache." On
January 12, the English Championship entered the 27th round, and Leicester City will challenge Bristol City away.
Li Leihe, Vardy Lingard and other players are making final adjustments in training.
The coaching staff has made all preparations for this away game, and they dare not be careless in the face of this team that is currently at the bottom of the standings.
But the team was in good shape in the last game, and they hope to continue their winning streak.
In the evening, the team drove to Bristol.
