As the game ended, Ling Feng made his professional debut and also completed a system achievement:
[Ding dong! 】
[The achievement "Debut" has been achieved]
[Achievement rating: A]
[Achievement reward: two free attribute points]
The system prompts sounded in his mind, and Ling Feng's heart stirred, but on the surface he remained calm.
Looking at Mahrez walking towards him, Ling Feng showed a bright smile and high-fived him:
"Hey man, that shot of yours was so cool! The goalkeeper couldn't even touch the ball..."
"Riyad, just call me Riyad."
After correcting Ling Feng's title, Mahrez asked curiously in less than fluent English:
"Ling, your passing is too good. Are all the youth team players in England like you?"
"Like me what?"
"Just as awesome!"
Seeing Mahrez's serious look, Ling Feng laughed, then spread his hands and joked:
"There are many players who are good at passing the ball, but you may not find another me in the whole world."
Hearing this, Mahrez nodded as if understanding.
The Leicester City coaching staff on the sidelines also excitedly celebrated this hard-won victory.
When shaking hands with Stoke City coach Mark Hughes, Mark Hughes suddenly said:
"Although my team performed better. However, the result of the game was indeed unexpected. To be honest, your No. 23 was very good."
Hearing the deep reluctance and admiration in the opponent's mouth, Leicester City head coach Nigel Pearson's heart moved, and then he put on a showy look:
"He is indeed pretty good, but he still needs to continue to practice."
"I hope the next time we meet, it will be in the Premier League..."
After saying these words, Mark Hughes turned and walked into the player tunnel.
Turning his head and looking at the black-haired young man who was arm-in-arm with Mahrez on the field, Pearson's eyes suddenly softened a lot.
At this moment, he felt very lucky for his decision to replace Ling Feng on the field.
Not only did he reverse the score and win the game, he also discovered a genius!
Ling Feng's sudden appearance suddenly gave him an extra trump card in his hand.
With Ling Feng, Leicester City's chances of hitting the Premier League this year will only be greater!
The question is whether Ling Feng can stably output such passes.
Thinking of this, he turned his head and said to the assistant coach Steve Walsh next to him:
"Steve, I think we've found a big gem for the club! But, hopefully, his passing talent is more than just a flash of inspiration..."
"Ask Ling to report to the first team tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Steve Walsh also smiled slightly:
“A very wise decision!”
After saying that, Pearson met Ling Feng who was walking to the sidelines, opened his arms and gave the hero of the comeback a big hug.
"Well done, kid!"
The head coach's enthusiasm did not surprise Ling Feng.
He just showed a humble smile and thanked Pearson in person:
"Boss, thank you for giving me the chance to play."
Although Ling Feng already possesses the vision and passing ability of De Bruyne at his peak, he can rely on his strength to gain a foothold in the first team.
However, it is still necessary to have a good relationship with the head coach.
After all, it is the head coach who decides on the playing eleven.
Even the biggest stars may be frozen out and sent to the youth team if they disobey the head coach.
What's more, he is just a little Karami who has just made his debut with the first team, and is far from the time to become a big name!
Ling Feng's attitude was very useful to Pearson.
He couldn't help but raise his hand and pat Ling Feng's shoulder, and immediately drew a big cake:
"Do a good job, I'm very optimistic about you."
In response, Ling Feng just pretended to be shy and smiled.
. . .
When selecting the best player of the game, Ling Feng, who only played for ten minutes, sent two assists and helped the team reverse the victory, was successfully elected.
Therefore, as soon as he walked off the court and was about to walk to the players' tunnel, he was pulled to the mixed interview area by several reporters to prepare for a post-match interview.
Facing the cameras and reporters holding microphones, Ling Feng, who was participating in a post-game interview for the first time, suddenly became a little nervous.
This is the first time he has been interviewed by reporters as a professional player.
If I say the wrong thing, will I make a fool of myself in front of many audiences and leave a dark history?
However, when he thought that he had survived such a big thing as time travel and rebirth, there was nothing to be nervous about, and he instantly relaxed.
A male reporter in a suit put a microphone in front of him and asked:
"Congratulations, Ling...Feng...is this how you pronounce your name?"
"Yes. Ling is my last name and Feng is my first name."
"You are of mixed Chinese and English descent, right?"
"Yes, my father met my mother when he was studying in London. In order to better take care of the family, he stayed in this country."
After briefly asking about Ling Feng’s family background, the male reporter continued:
"Let's talk about your performance on the court. This is your first team debut. How do you feel now?"
"I feel great. First of all I want to thank the coach for trusting me and sending me on the field at the most intense moment of the game."
"Then I want to thank my teammates. Football is a team sport. Without teammates, we can't do this..."
"Your passing is very deadly. You gave out two amazing assists in just ten minutes after coming on."
"I'm very happy to be able to help the team win..."
When being interviewed by reporters for the first time, Ling Feng, who has been born in two generations, gave a very humble and calm answer, completely unlike an 18-year-old young man who had just made his debut.
And this brief post-match interview is destined to become important information for major clubs to examine his personal character in the future.
"Thank you for your time. Here's your champagne of the match..."
Ling Feng only reacted when the reporter handed over a bottle of red champagne with the FA Cup logo printed on the bottle.
It turns out that the reward for the best player in the FA Cup is not a trophy, but a bottle of champagne!
Taking the champagne back to the visiting team's locker room, Ling Feng was hugged by Vardy's shoulders as soon as he entered the door, and he joked loudly:
"Hey, our little hero is back with champagne!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Leicester City generals, led by captain Wes Morgan, applauded Ling Feng.
Bang bang bang...
After the applause, Ling Feng just smiled brightly and expressed his gratitude to his teammates:
"Thank you everyone, I just did what I should do..."
After a pause, he picked up the champagne in his hand, "I think this champagne belongs not only to me, but also to you. Because without your hard work in the first eighty minutes, there would be no reversal in the last ten minutes!"
Ling Feng's words shocked everyone present.
They didn't expect that a young man who had just been promoted from the youth team and made his first appearance for the first team could actually speak at such a high level!
He seems to be only eighteen years old, right?
In just ten minutes on the court, Ling Feng's passing skills had already conquered them.
No one in the entire team can do such a fatal pass!
A teammate with superb passing skills is a good thing for both the team and the individual.
After all, in the world of professional football, who doesn’t like strong teammates?
