Chapter 77: Chelsea Again (I)
When Eggsy appeared in the player tunnel, it was a shot of encouragement for all the teammates. When everyone saw Eggsy, they reached out and rubbed Eggsy's hair, and then pushed the kid forward.
"Why?"
"Go ahead."
Eggsy was pushed behind the first captain Morgan, and Morgan even turned his head and raised his eyebrows to look at Eggsy, then he smiled and couldn't help but reached out to touch Eggsy's head.
All of these interactions at Leicester City were captured by the camera, and the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV all showed the same smile.
Although there are no explicit rules, generally speaking, when the players of both teams start lining up in the player tunnel, the captain usually stands at the front, followed by the tactical organizer or vice-captain, and the most important players.
Of course, some people just stand randomly, but the rule here in Leicester City is the position of tactical commander and vice-captain. If Eggsy can stand in this position, it is obvious that the organizer of today's tactics is Eggsy.
"Has Eggsy lost weight again recently?" The host was originally talking about the tactical arrangements of the double-team defense and the characteristics of the previous games, but when the director focused the screen on Eggsy, the little bit of baby fat on the boy's face was now completely gone.
At this time, Eggsy's jaw was very clear, and the muscle lines on both sides of his originally slender neck were even clearer. His shoulders were even more open, and in the warm-up of stretching his body and shoulders, the lines of his shoulders and waist appeared to be extremely beautiful inverted triangle shapes.
"It seems that even during this period of recuperation, he has been exercising well."
The host himself may not realize that his words now have the feeling of watching the younger generation of his family grow up, and with that kind of sigh, it is obvious that he has also joined the ranks of parent fans.
However, the host's words really put everyone's attention on Eggsy. It was obvious that Eggsy did not give up training during his shoulder injury. Chelsea's physical trainer saw Eggsy and thought about his last time seeing him. He found that the boy's body flexibility was higher.
When Eggsy stretched his shoulders and legs, every time he bent down he could stretch his ligaments greatly. Of course, the child's round and perky buttocks were also wrapped in the blue shorts, making him look round and cute.
Mahrez, who was standing behind Eggsy, suddenly slapped Eggsy's buttocks with a sly smile. Eggsy turned back while bending his waist, and seeing Mahrez with a sly smile, he raised his back leg and prepared to kick him. Mahrez jumped away with a sly smile, and Leicester City was having a lot of fun.
On the other hand, Chelsea was mostly silent. Although their team was very impressive and their players came from many different countries, the situation inside the club's locker room was very fragmented. The most direct indication of Chelsea's current situation was Fabregas' all-night chat with Eggsy in the previous match.
If there is harmony within the club, Fabregas wouldn't like to play with Eggsy.
The game still has to go on. Leicester City and Chelsea are almost the same this season. Their results in the previous season were very poor, so bad that they were doubted, but they changed afterwards.
But Leicester City has completely turned things around, because they found Eggsy who can make them reborn. As for Chelsea now... it's hard to say.
When the players from both teams came on the field, Leicester City lined up to shake hands with Chelsea players one by one. When Eggsy saw Fabregas shaking hands with him, he said, "I won't let you win."
Xiaofa also laughed: "I don't know either."
The two laughed and then let go, but this interaction was enough for the host to show off his expertise.
"Eggsy and Fabregas have a good personal relationship. Fabregas even went to his exam ceremony. But this game can be seen as a competition between the two good friends who are both midfielders. It is very exciting to watch."
The two teams entered the field, and this time Captain Morgan was lucky enough to take the lead in attacking. After the referees checked the ball, they started to serve.
Morgan served the ball for Leicester City, but he quickly passed it to Eggsy. But Eggsy didn't rush with the ball like before, but trotted slowly through the midfield with the ball. At the same time, the attacking players were also slowly pressing forward. It felt...
Why does it look like an old man strolling in the park?
Chelsea was obviously stunned for a moment. Where was the impact and confrontation that she had expected? Why was it so soft?
Chelsea was confused, and the fans were more or less confused. What was Eggsy doing? What was Leicester City trying to do?
What does Leicester City want to do? It's simple. They want to beat the opponent with a slow attack and strike back.
In fact, this is not the first time Chelsea and Leicester City have played against each other. Everyone knows what tactics they use. However, compared with Chelsea, which has more midfielders but weak connection ability, Leicester City's Eggsy has super strong adjustment and adaptability.
In addition, Leicester City coach Ranieri is an experienced old fox, so he is not afraid of making mistakes at all. It can be said that as long as it is not a fatal blow, he can coordinate it.
Moreover, Chelsea's performance against Leicester City in the last game cannot be said to be bad, in fact, there is no big problem. It's just that after the second half of the last game, the physical consumption of both sides became the most important bargaining chip. And everyone in Leicester City knows that Chelsea came for revenge, and they will definitely not easily reveal the same shortcomings as last time.
So, why not just play slowly and watch slowly?
Although Leicester City was not fast, Eggsy handled every step very carefully. Every time the pass reached his feet, the alarm for Chelsea's tight defense was sounded.
From the moment the ball reached Eggsy's feet, Fabregas and Hazard rushed over to double-team Eggsy, but Eggsy started the most incredible dribble of the game.
Because Eggsy didn't even have a direct face-to-face confrontation. Instead, he suddenly moved left and right, and before Hazard and Fabregas surrounded him, he made a double-step move sideways and directly made an 8-shaped move with the ball.
Then he took the ball and broke through successfully...
ah?
"How do I describe Eggsy's move..." The host was also a little confused at this time, because every step of Eggsy's defense and breakthrough was beyond everyone's expectations. When his two feet moved alternately, he could actually dribble the ball with both the inside and outside of his feet at the same time!
What is this trick? How does this work? He doesn't trip?
The ball really moved in a figure 8 under his feet. Fabregas and Hazard both tried to intercept him and stretched their feet to intercept him, but all failed.
"Is this a move created by Eggsy?!" The host really couldn't think of such a way of dribbling. He even thought of Zidane, who has superb skills, but he had never seen such a move, so he finally made a conclusion.
While the TV and the fans at the scene were cheering for Eggsy's dribbling, Eggsy, who was already on the left side and broke through the midfield line, did not hesitate at all.
Although he just broke through the encirclement of Fabregas and Hazard, he had obviously attracted too much firepower in front of him. The firepower from the middle and the right had been attracted, so Eggsy would pass the ball.
"Remember, you don't need to fight too hard in the first half. Remember that our trump card is for the second half." This is what Mr. Ranieri reminded each of them several times before the game, tapping on the tactical board. Eggsy certainly remembered it.
Since it is the master's order, Eggsy will definitely do it.
So he never started a quick attack to break through, but instead passed the ball to Shinji Okazaki on the right, and tried to move to the middle. Because Vardy was in the middle, it was a bit difficult for him to break through, and he needed someone to help him act as a wingman to disperse Chelsea's attack.
The fans on the field did not know how to organize tactics, but they could feel it at the first moment: the entire Leicester City was attacking Eggsy. Even though Eggsy did not start to drive into Chelsea's half very quickly, the other players were like forming a kind of tentacles that kept spreading and penetrating around Eggsy, decomposing and infiltrating the opponent's lineup.
Chelsea's head coach also stood up at this time. He did not expect that the defense line he was so proud of would be broken so silently.
"He came in directly without any fierce competition..."
To be honest, he suspected that this Eggsy had some kind of magic or something. Why was this guy so suitable for organized offense?
"It really looks like a wolf."
Chelsea's head coach didn't say it completely. He actually said that Leicester City was like a pack of wolves, and Eggsy was the leader of the pack who commanded the pack during the attack. The entire pack surrounded him and began to attack their prey, making it extremely difficult even if they were well protected.
At this time, Eggsy's eyes were shining golden and he was running with a stretched body. His movements were not fast, but calm, relaxed and even a little elegant. Even though there were so many Chelsea players around him, he continued to carry the ball as if nothing had happened and started the final breakthrough.
Even though the ball Vardy passed to him was very bad, even a little off target, Eggsy had no difficulty at all. He just stretched out his long legs and hooked the ball directly over the legs of the Chelsea player who had arrived one step earlier.
Hook, Hook and go?!
The defender of Cher was stunned for a moment. Even if he wanted to stop it, he couldn't. It felt like Eggsy effortlessly hooked the ball away from him as if it was in slow motion. And the body that he bumped into was perfectly avoided by him by turning his body sideways.
It seemed as if he could predict all his actions!
