Chapter 272 A terrifying six-game winning streak!
The Netherlands.
Eindhoven, in a single ward at Catalina Hospital.
Lying on the hospital bed with a look of despair, Luke Xiao just stared blankly at the sky outside the window, but his thoughts drifted to nowhere.
According to the team doctor’s recollection at the time, Luke Shaw had a wound on both sides of his right leg.
And because of the fracture, blood clots appeared in the calf.
If surgical treatment is not performed as soon as possible, the calf is likely to suffer complete necrosis due to a long period of no blood circulation.
The Manchester United team doctor initially considered sending Luke Shaw to fly directly back to England for treatment.
However, this will seriously delay the treatment time.
Fortunately, after discussion with the medical team, he was sent to the best local hospital in Eindhoven as soon as possible, and then underwent emergency surgery.
The surgery was successful, but not a success.
Although the blood clot was removed and the leg bones were repaired, a steel plate was installed on the calf for fixation.
But during the treatment, Luke Shaw also suffered from many complications.
This is destined to be accompanied by pain.
Accompanied by the tightly wrapped right leg and the pain that hit various parts of the body from time to time, the English young man began to have random thoughts.
Can you still continue playing football?
Can I still stay at Manchester United, no, in the professional arena?
Are you going to retire now?
As for his questions, the doctor did not answer directly, but said that everything is possible.
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
However, when Luke Xiao turned around, he realized that the person who came was not a nurse or a family member, but an unexpected face!
“Ling?!”
The surprised expression on Luke Xiao’s face made Ling Feng smile brightly, and then raised the fruit basket in his hand:
"Hey! Man, are you okay?!"
Hearing this, Luke Xiao couldn't help being stunned, and then asked: "Why are you here?"
"Let's see how Mr. Skywalker is doing!"
Since Luke Shaw's name is the same as that of Star Wars protagonist Luke Skywalker, many people in the Three Lions Corps call him Luke Shaw. He was nicknamed "Skywalker".
When he heard this title, Luke Xiao suddenly felt more cordial.
Ling Feng is also the first friend besides the Manchester United coaching staff and teammates to take the initiative to visit him!
On Luke Xiao’s haggard face, he couldn’t help but force a smile, “I’m okay, at least I saved my right leg”
"I originally planned to share with you after the game my feelings about participating in the Champions League for the first time."
This game was originally Luke Shaw's first Champions League game in his career.
Unexpectedly, he suffered a broken leg and a serious injury in his first Champions League game, and the future of his career was uncertain.
When he thought of this, the look in Luke Xiao's eyes suddenly dimmed a lot, and his words stopped abruptly.
Seeing this, Ling Feng smiled, took over the conversation, and continued:
"You can share it with me now! No need to send text messages, you can tell me directly in person."
"Is that the Champions League theme song really sung like this?"
After a pause, Ling Feng cleared his throat and deliberately sang the chorus of the Champions League theme song in Chinese in an empty-eared manner:
"Kick Barcelona, kick Barcelona. Kick Bayern Munich and our factory has collapsed"
Listening to Ling Feng’s singing, Luke Xiao was confused at first, and then he was amused by Ling Feng’s weird accent.
"It sounds very similar, but what's your accent?"
"Chinese, Chinese people all sing along like this"
After opening the topic, Luke Xiao didn't know He suddenly forgot about the pain in his body, and his face became a little more colorful.
While speaking, Ling Feng did not forget to change his mind, summoned the [Inventory], and then focused on the [Injury Recovery Card]
Then, he My mind is trying to talk to the system in my body:
Hello, system?
Brother System, can you come out and have a chat?
Hi?
Seeing that the system did not respond, Ling Feng continued to ask in his mind:
System, can this prop be used on other people?
Let me know if it works or not!
And this time, the system responded!
A cold mechanical prompt sounded in my mind:
[Ding! 】
【An injured player is detected nearby. Do you want to use the injury recovery card on player "Luke Shaw"? 】
Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.
It really works!
This system is quite user-friendly!
【Yes! 】
The next second after making the choice, a golden light that only Ling Feng could see flew out of his body, and then entered Luke Xiao's body with a swish.
The next second, Ling Feng stared at Luke Xiao closely.
Ling Feng stared at him a little, and Luke Xiao was confused:
“Why are you staring at me?”
Seeing that Luke Xiao didn’t The spot healed immediately, and Ling Feng already had a rough guess in his mind.
It seems that the accelerated recovery effect of [Injury Recovery Card] cannot make the injured recover immediately after being injured like Wolverine in a short time.
This makes sense.
In that case, this card would not be called [Injury Recovery Card], but [Medical Miracle Card]!
It seems that this card can only speed up Luke Shaw's injury recovery to a certain extent, and then get rid of the impact of the injury faster.
Perhaps I need to pay more attention to his recovery in order to have a deeper understanding of the effect of [Injury Recovery Card]
Thinking of this, he suddenly became solemn and put his hand down. On Luke Xiao's shoulder, he said very seriously:
"Luke, you will definitely get better and step onto the court again! I firmly believe it!"
Luke Xiao was deeply moved when he saw Ling Feng's determined look on his face.
I don’t know whether it was the power of words or the effect of the [Injury Recovery Card], but he even suddenly felt that the pain in his body was relieved a lot.
"Thank you for coming to see me and your encouragement. I feel much better."
"Take good care of yourself, and when you come back, we will fight side by side again!" After that, Ling Feng stretched out his right hand.
Seeing this, Luke Xiao reached out his hand and held it tightly without hesitation:
“I will!”
. . .
After visiting Luke Shaw, not long after Ling Feng returned to the club, he ushered in the first group match of this season's Europa League journey.
The Blue Fox will travel to southwestern France, the world's largest wine producing area, Bordeaux, to face French Ligue 1 team Bordeaux.
This team has won the Ligue 1 championship six times and is a traditional powerhouse in Ligue 1.
Zinedine Zidane, Lizarazu, Deschamps, Domenech and other French stars have all played for this team.
In the 2008~09 season, under the leadership of the core "New Zidane" Gourcuff, Bordeaux broke Lyon's seven consecutive championships and won it again after ten years. Win the Ligue 1 title!
However, since Gourcuff's condition declined and he left the team, this team has never reached fourth place in the league.
Until last season, they finished sixth in the league and qualified for the Europa League, all the way to the Europa League.
However, the stars in this team are dim.
Ling Feng didn’t recognize any of the starting eleven!
At the Stade Atlantico, Bordeaux’s home stadium, Ranieri boldly made a rotation in the lineup.
This season the team is facing multi-front battles and must make choices.
In Ranieri's view, the ranking of importance of various competitions must be the league first, followed by the Europa League, and the FA Cup and League Cup are directly left to the substitutes to find their status.
In the end, with Ling Feng's push from outside the penalty area and Ulloa's header, the Blue Fox easily won Bordeaux 2-0 in the away game.
After winning their first Europa League victory of the season, after only two days of rest, the Blue Fox came to the banks of the Trent River without stopping, and arrived at Lingfeng’s amazing blessed place, the Britannia Stadium. !
Facing the revenge-hungry Stoke City, the Blue Foxes deployed all their main players to strive for six consecutive league wins!
Last season, Stoke City ranked tenth, neither high nor low.
This season, Stoke City aims to impact the European theater and has made extensive reinforcements in the summer window.
"Swiss Messi" Shaqiri, Joselu, Afellay, Glen Johnson, Van Ginkel and other players have joined the team one after another, and their strength cannot be underestimated.
However, since Ling Feng burst onto the scene at the Britannia Stadium, Leicester City has defeated Stoke City three times in a row.
Facing the defeated opponent Stoke City, Leicester City players have a psychological advantage.
What's more, Lingfeng and Leicester City have become stronger and have no weaknesses compared to last season
Stoke City, playing at home, showed an aggressive momentum from the start and attacked without hesitation.
However, the quality of Leicester City's counterattack this season is too high.
Especially when the team has a passing master like Ling Feng, every pass passed through his feet is so fatal!
After a season and a half of running-in, the tacit understanding of the three Musketeers of the Blue Fox has reached
No matter the speed of forward penetration or the timing of passing and running, they are all just right.
Finally, at the Britannia Stadium, with the goals of Vardy and Mahrez, the Blue Fox once again defeated Stoke City and achieved their sixth consecutive victory in the league!
After the game, the entire English football world was attracted by Leicester, a small city of only 300,000 people.
Because, after the first six rounds of the new Premier League season, the one who occupies the top spot is not the defending champion Chelsea, nor the traditional giants such as Manchester City and Liverpool, but the team that experienced scandals and coaching changes in the summer. Leicester City!
This ranking in the standings still surprises many people.
Could it be that the football law that changing coaches is like changing swords is also happening to the Blue Fox? !
The six-game winning streak in the league not only created the best start in team history, but also made Leicester City the third team in Premier League history to start six consecutive games after Newcastle United in the 1994-95 season and Chelsea in the 2009-10 season. The winning team!
The best start to the Premier League record is nine consecutive wins.
The creator is the "first-phase" Chelsea led by Mourinho in the 2005-06 season!
I have to say that Mourinho and Chelsea are a match made in heaven!
However, compared to the iron-blooded Blues team that cost Abramovich 200 million pounds in transfer fees and brought together major stars, this team's total value is only in the middle of the league, and it is a very civilian cunning blue team. Fox, however, makes people even more surprised and confused.
With Manchester City's upset loss to West Ham United at home, Leicester City became the only undefeated team in the Premier League this season!
Before the start of the season, no one would have thought of this direction.
Since then, major media, football experts and commentators have begun to pick up magnifying glasses and analyze why Leicester City is so ferocious.
The Blue Fox fans celebrated the team's six consecutive victories with singing and dancing.
In the latest episode of the "Match Day" program, Lineker, a die-hard Leicester City fan, directly spoke in front of two guests and millions of viewers in front of the TV. Start blowing:
"First of all, I must apologize to Ranieri. His impact on the team is obvious to all. In particular, the team's defense is much more stable than last season."
"The arrival of Kanter has given the ball away. The team's defense in the midfield has not only improved to another level."
"On the offensive end, the Blue Fox, which has adopted defensive counterattack tactics this season, has not reduced its offensive power at all"
"Start of the game Since then, as the core of the team, Ling Feng has been in hot form as always. This 20-year-old super genius has gradually become the top player in the Premier League. "
"As of the sixth round of the league! , he has provided an astonishing nine assists and provided assists in six consecutive rounds, breaking the consecutive assist record set by himself last season.”
"The biggest beneficiary of these assists is Vardy."
"Vardy has scored in six consecutive league rounds, tying Cantona, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Cristiano Ronaldo. Man."
"Of course, we must not ignore Mahrez's power on the wing. What he does with his left foot, I have only seen it from Messi!"
"I think any Premier League team will have a headache if they encounter this trident."
"Because you can't completely guard against them!"
However, Lineker and the fans are delighted with Leicester City's obvious improvement on the defensive end.
Ranieri is not satisfied with the team's defense!
Because, although the first six rounds of the league were all won.
However, they did not keep a clean sheet in any game!
In the tactical meeting the day after the sixth round of the league, Ranieri said to the players with a serious face:
"I am very satisfied with your recent state and performance. However, we must do better on the defensive end"
"If we can keep a clean sheet in the next game, I will treat you to pizza!"
This proposal from the head coach cannot be said to be too tempting.
After all, not everyone here is a high-paid person with a weekly salary of over 10,000 yuan.
Even if they cannot blatantly eat "junk food" like pizza in the base, they can eat it at any time in private.
However, this is not about pizza or money, but a message that the head coach is seriously conveying to them:
A clean sheet must be kept!
Whether it is for the team or for the clean sheet bonus of the goalkeeper teammates, they must pay attention and go all out!
However, this task is destined to be arduous.
Because, their next league opponent is Arsenal led by Wenger!
