Chapter 65: The Price of Contempt

The match between Leicester City and Manchester United is a focal battle between first and second place in the table.

If this was said last season, or even two months ago, everyone would only mock the person who said it as a whimsical fool.

But what is now in front of everyone's eyes is reality.

Therefore, Carlo Ancelotti also had to seriously study Leicester City as the second place in the league.

Despite Leicester City's small name, he must have had success if he was able to beat the giants in second place after more than ten rounds.

Carlo Ancelotti is well aware of this, so he has a very good plan for this match.

With Hummels injured and partnered in central defence by Phil Jones and Marcos Rojo, Vardy was quick and Carlo Ancelotti sent Rojo to deal with him.

......

Carlo Ancelotti thought he was cautious enough, but Leicester's fighting power was still beyond his expectations.

The King Power Stadium is in the swing at the moment and there is no doubt that Leicester have scored.

It was Jamie Vardy who scored the goal, and he is now the second-most striker in consecutive Premier League games – behind Li Qingshan.

After the goal, Vardy celebrated quite wildly, and being able to lead Manchester United really boosted Leicester City's confidence!

'Vardy scored a goal!! In front of the TV, I don't know how many Leicester fans are cheering, and this season has been enough for Leicester fans to be proud of the team's performance.

Leicester were leading Manchester United at home and in the 14th minute Jamie Vardy scored the back of the net with a quick counter-attack!! It's hard to imagine that the aggressive top scorer is now one of the hottest strikers in the Premier League, just a few years ago Vardy was an amateur in the amateur league and just a few years later he has become a popular England international. And the other super striker in this game is also a center forward player who debuted in England's lower leagues, perhaps in England's complex league system, there are also some unknown players who have the potential to become superstars, such a complex and complete league system is really a treasure of English football. ”

Without Li Qingshan, Jamie Vardy would have been the best inspirational story in this game. Coming through Sheffield's academy, Vardy began his career at Steelbridge at Storch Bridge after a contract with Sheffield Wednesday at the age of 16, rising to the first team in 2007. He spent three seasons before joining Northern England Premier League club Haliface Town in 2010. He scored 26 goals in his debut season with Chariface Town before joining English Football Council National League club Fleetwood in August 2011. He scored 31 league goals in his debut season with his new club as the club won the English Football Council's National League title. In May 2012, Vardy joined Championship club Leicester City FC for a record-breaking £1 million transfer fee in the non-professional league, and played in the Premier League after helping the club win the Championship title in 2014.

After Leicester City established themselves in the Premier League, Vardy's performances have also started to go crazy, and he has scored 14 league goals so far this season, ranking second behind Li Qingshan, surpassing Aguero, Harry Kane and other Premier League stars.

Jamie Vardy and his team-mates celebrated wildly, the bench cheered, the dugout cheered, the stands cheered, the King Power Stadium cheered. And Li Qingshan is apologizing to his teammates.

Because the goal just now was caused by Li Qingshan's steal by Kante, Li Qingshan would not shirk this pot, he stretched out his hand to apologize to his teammates, saying that it was his mistake.

Then he looked at the dark, thin figure hidden among the Leicester players who were celebrating.

Li Qingshan admitted that he underestimated this little black man.

Perhaps it has always been based on his height and weight strength to bully opponents, Li Qingshan will inevitably have a contempt for Kante, who is short in stature and even looks a little thin, although Carlo Ancelotti drew several key players for Leicester City before the game, among which their midfielder Kante is the most important.

Li Qingshan paid the price for his contempt. At that time, after Li Qingshan took the ball with his back near the arc of the penalty area, he leaned on Morgan and turned to shoot directly.

When he was about to shoot, Kante didn't know when he suddenly appeared in front of him and stabbed the ball away.

Li Qingshan wanted to turn around and pull the opponent, but Kante was much more flexible than Li Qingshan, he flexibly got rid of Li Qingshan, and then passed the ball to the feet of Mahrez on the wing.

Riyad Mahrez didn't stop the ball and played the ball directly behind the United defence, and Vardy used his speed to spell out a one-on-one chance to score again.

Kante broke the ball and passed to Mahrez, who did not make any other moves after passing to Vardy, who was running at high speed, and then did not make any other moves, and it was just a shot from Bang, and De Gea could not do anything about such a ball.

This is the whole process of Manchester United's conceding goal, and now all eyes are focused on Kante, but Li Qingshan has played the most crucial role in it.

Prior to 2013, Kante played for F.C. Bouigne in the French third division until 2013, when he moved from the French third division to Caen, where he helped the team to victory.

This season, Claudio Ranieri brought N'Golo Kante from France to the Premier League, and the little-known black boy became an absolute mainstay for Leicester City, and his sweeping role in midfield was impossible to ignore.

Kante is now being referred to as Leicester's Makelele.

And before the game, Carlo Ancelotti even told his players that N'Golo Kante was even more of a headache than Claude Makelele.

At that time, the players of Manchester United did not care, and even Li Qingshan did not think that this black and thin little man had anything remarkable.

It was only in the game that the United players knew what N'Golo Kante was really good at.

Not only in midfield, but in the entire midfield, N'Golo Kante is almost everywhere, his ability to move, his selection, his complements, all of which make Manchester United's attack like a machine without lubrication, completely unable to move smoothly.

For Li Qingshan, this lesson made him immediately vigilant. It seems that the consecutive goals have made me a little fluttery, and I actually made such a low-level mistake as belittling the opponent.

Since you have made a mistake, you have to make up for it, and Li Qingshan's way to make up for it is naturally to score goals!
