Seeing Ling Feng and Mahrez coming to the sidelines, preparing to come on as substitutes, the Leicester City fans who followed the team to the away game suddenly burst into enthusiastic cheers.
"Well done, Pearson!"
"It's time to let Ling play!"
"Mahrez is also good. The two of them work together very well..."
In a sea of blue, William, wearing a Leicester City fan jacket and a blue fox knitted hat, was also among them.
As a member of the "Fox Club", the largest non-governmental fan organization of Leicester City Club, William is a native Leicester and a loyal Blue Fox.
Since going to the stadium for the first time to watch Leicester City at the age of five, he has become a Leicester City season ticket holder and most loyal supporter!
He will be there to watch every home game.
Rain or shine!
As long as time permits, he will drive his own minivan to every away game and follow the team to the away game, cheering for the team in the stands.
He is the proper twelfth man on the team!
At this moment, while blushing and waving the blue fox scarf in his hand, he loudly shouted the name of Ling Feng, who was about to come on as a substitute:
"Ling Feng! Ling Feng!! Ling Feng!!!"
Many Leicester City fans around him also called out the name of this young genius who was trained by their own youth training.
In their opinion, Ling Feng is the secret weapon that the team has been unable to open up!
He is also the hero who leads the team to comeback and win when the situation is behind!
The away fans were so enthusiastic that the commentator couldn't help but joke:
"Leicester City is preparing to make substitutions. No. 23 Ling Feng and No. 26 Mahrez are standing on the sidelines, preparing to appear..."
"In the last game against Derby County, Ling Feng assisted Mahrez and scored the team's third goal..."
"And that was already the 18-year-old's third assist in two games..."
"It's no wonder the fans welcomed him with such a warm attitude..."
"Maybe he will become the hero of this game, or maybe he will be injured by the thorns of the white rose, let's wait and see..."
Faced with the cheers of the away fans, the home fans were not to be outdone.
He immediately responded with more boos and all kinds of abuse, trying to make Ling Feng, who was about to go on stage, wet his pants in fear.
His ears were filled with harsh boos and curses, but Ling Feng stood with his brows slightly furrowed and his expression calm.
Mahrez on the side also had a serious expression.
Even though his English is not very good, he can still hear the foul language spoken by the home fans.
He didn't quite understand why Leeds United fans were so hostile to Ling Feng.
Is this the football atmosphere in England?
"Ling, are you okay?"
Facing Mahrez's concern on the side, Ling Feng turned to show a bright smile and responded loudly:
"very good!"
Ling Feng didn't care at all about the fans' bad behavior in greeting him and his family, and just regarded it as a group of ducks quacking in his ears.
Because he knows very well that this is one of the daily tasks that professional players must face.
If you want the fans to shut up, you have to show some real skills on the court!
"Shush, shush louder! I'll make you all shut up!"
Secretly swearing in his heart, Ling Feng high-fived the substituted starting player and trotted onto the court.
Same as the last game against Derby County, when Ling Feng came on the stage, Leicester City's formation changed from 442 to 4231.
Facing the substitution adjustments made by Leicester City, Leeds United, which had the advantage on the field, did not make any changes.
Leeds United head coach Brian McDermott just shouted from the sidelines, "Keep an eye on No. 23 and give him some competition!" After that, he sat back on the coaching bench again.
In his view, football is a team sport, and no matter how strong a person is, there is only one limit.
And no matter how good an eighteen-year-old kid is at passing the ball, he won't be able to pass the ball very well as long as he is exposed to more physical contact.
Now the situation on the field is very favorable to them. As long as they continue to attack, they will score soon!
Leeds United's style of play is very fierce and direct.
Often they start an attack from the backcourt, make a long pass to find the forward in front, and then use the forward's personal ability to continuously attack the defense line.
Fortunately, Leicester City's defense is second to none in the league.
The starting two central defenders, captain Wes Morgan and Waselski, are both tall central defenders over 1.9 meters tall.
Although his turning speed is slow, his frontal interception and aerial challenge capabilities are excellent.
In the struggle and confrontation with the Leeds United strikers, the two did not lose at all!
The first match between the two sides at the King Power Stadium ended in a 0-0 draw.
This time, Leeds United will take advantage of their home court to end Leicester City's winning streak.
Then he scored three points and moved into the promotion play-offs.
This kind of proactive attack allowed Leeds United to take the initiative on the field in the first 60 minutes, constantly suppressing Leicester City, and posing successive threats to the goal guarded by Schmeichel Jr.
The city gates of Leicester City were crumbling and looked like they were about to be breached.
But the last layer of window paper has not been pierced!
However, after Ling Feng and Mahrez came on the scene, the whole situation suddenly changed dramatically!
Ling Feng's passing accuracy and success rate are the highest on the team.
Mahrez's dribbling and ball control are unique among Leicester City.
The appearance of the two made Leicester City's ground passing cooperation much smoother.
The two physically strong men cooperated through frequent passing and running. Leicester City firmly controlled the ball at their feet, greatly reducing the defensive pressure on the back line.
And under Ling Feng's passing, the Leeds United players were surprised to find that no matter how hard they pressed, they couldn't steal the ball!
Without the ball, Leeds United's fierce offensive came to an abrupt end.
On the contrary, Leicester City slowly mastered the rhythm of the game under Ling Feng's command.
Watching the time passing by bit by bit, the opponent was still passing the ball and kicking the ball. The Leeds United players who were eager to win were finally annoyed.
Especially Leeds United’s midfielder, Michael Brown!
The former Manchester City star, who has worked hard in English football for many years, is famous for his fierce tackles and a large number of red and yellow cards.
He once made headlines for his two-legged tackle on Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs.
But this time, the thirty-six-year-old midfielder set his sights on Ling Feng, who was twice his age!
Seeing Ling Feng turn his back to get the ball again, Michael Brown's eyes flashed fiercely and he pounced on him without hesitation.
"Little Bi Zai, let you pass it on!"
Feeling the pressure behind him, Ling Feng directly kicked the ball horizontally and passed the ball back to Brother Drinking in the midfield.
However, what he didn't expect was that the other party had no intention of letting him go!
Perhaps because of his reduced physical strength and inability to control his body's inertia, or perhaps because he was deliberately giving Ling Feng a blow, Brown did not stop, but ran straight towards Ling Feng.
"Made, you want to trick me?!"
Before Ling Feng could dodge, he felt a push on his back. He immediately lost his balance and was knocked away!
