[Stoke City, 3-0 win against strong Arsenal in the League Cup final. ]

Stoke City won the League Cup. Following last season’s Premier League and FA Cup doubles, it was news of the first championship this season.

However, they could not enjoy the joy of winning alone. There was still a season left, and it was because the league match, the Champions League second leg and the FA Cup quarter-final had to be played in a row.

[‘Lee-less’ Stoke City, 0-0 draw with Chelsea]

if u see this you eather reading in epub or from somewhere other than noble so just bear with it it may break the flow but nothing can be done sigh

Manager Milo gave Jamie a break for the ensuing league game against Chelsea.

The result is a draw.

[The ranking is still ‘overwhelming’ 1st even after the ‘win streak’ is over. ]

[ Draw without Jamie Lee. ‘gain’ for Stoke City]

[Are you aware of public opinion? Jamie Lee took a break after a long time. ]

ㄴ [Director Milo Conrad, “Why am I conscious of that? I don’t even care.” ]

A team that is still classified as a strong team even though it has not recently won a championship cup. It was not a bad result for Stoke City to draw against such a team without Jamie.

[Jamie Lee, returning from the start after 3 days. ]

[You can advance to the quarterfinals even if you win a draw. ]

And three days later, in the second leg against Barcelona, Jamie started.

It was Barcelona who brought a clumsy customized tactic in the last game and failed miserably. No, it was closer to reconfirming the failure after benchmarking Newcastle’s tactics that had already failed.

So Jamie – even against the opposition, he hoped that Barcelona would not make the same mistake again.

‘Today is a bit better.’

In the 20th minute of the first half, Jamie looked at the opposing camp and thought.

Today, Barcelona tried to play possession-oriented pass play, which is their specialty.

‘By the way, is it a child again?’

However, assigning Kili Aimar to Jaime was the same as last time.

It wasn’t something I didn’t understand. It was clear that no one could stop Jamie. If so, it could have been a little better to stick with a player you’ve played against.

Two, Duk.

‘Well, there won’t be a big difference.’

Jamie passed Keely in an instant and moved to the left. His move also changed the direction of the Barcelona players’ bodies.

Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all

No, it wasn’t just the body direction that changed, the entire defensive line moved in line with Jamie’s movement.

In a short amount of time, it seemed like he had been preparing hard in his own way.

‘Five.’

But apart from that, Jamie was fun.

‘Oh oh.’

It was fun to see the entire Barcelona team trembling every time we changed direction.

‘Ohhhhh.’

Jamie turned his body slightly, pretending to turn to center. Then the Barcelona players also turned around.

‘Ohhhhh.’

I changed direction again.

‘Oh oh oh oh.’

kept changing

“Jay!”

But it couldn’t be like that forever.

Soon, Brian raised his hand and asked for a pass, and Jamie delivered the ball right away.

pug. After receiving the pass, Brian fired a shot after one painting.

[ Woah-uh ]

The result was a no goal, but it was enough to make the Barcelona defense cool.

‘Let’s make some use of this today.’

A situation in which the other person is overly conscious of himself. It didn’t seem like a bad idea to take advantage of this and take advantage of my colleagues.

‘It seems like I’ve been feeding them too much lately.’

These days, I’ve been using it alone too much. Now it’s time for the others to run a little too.

I thought so too.

Six minutes later, Jamie didn’t carry the ball himself and widened it wide to the right side.

It was KK who got his pass.

‘Cross up?’

KK put on a questioning expression for a moment, but when he saw Keating running on the other side, he turned in that direction.

Tuung. When it comes to long kicks, KK was as good as Jamie. His pass went straight to Keating.

Catching the ball from the left flank, Keating took advantage of his speed and advanced nearly 20 meters. Then, at some point, he passed to Jamie in the center as if by surprise.

Then, as if it were natural, the eyes of the Barcelona players turned to Jamie.

‘What do you think I will do?’

Jamie pushed his right foot wide as if he was about to shoot.

“…!”

The defense couldn’t help but flinch. One central defender even raised his leg as if to block the shot.

But Jamie’s next move wasn’t shooting. He folded his feet, turned to the other side, and passed to Brian, who was penetrating diagonally.

All eyes were on Jamie.

“Hit it!”

Brian fired right away.

**

[Gooooool! Brian Lekka scores this time! ]

In the 30th minute of the first half, Brian’s shot led to a goal.

[ Jamie Lee, do you hit yourself? ]

[Oh, right this time. Jorge Benjor accepts the pass. ]

In the 4th minute of the second half, Ben’s additional goal also went through a similar process to the opening goal.

[Beng, beng·······. ]

[ goal! Jorge Benjor scores a goal after a long time! ]

Jamie moves as if he were going to shoot himself, then passes diagonally. Bengi shot from a pass. goal.

[Every time Lee moves, the Barcelona defense is greatly shaken. ]

[ Lee, Jamie Lee·······. I exchange two-on-one passes with Damien Manible. ]

[Ah, link to the overlapping Ned Keating! ]

[Gool! Ned Keating scores his team’s third goal! ]

Keating’s key goal in the 20th minute of the second half was a little different.

Jamie was exchanging two-to-one passes with Damien as if he would solve it himself this time, and then suddenly stabbed Keating with a through pass to the left. Keating calmly tried to shoot even when there was no angle, and this led to a goal.

[The combined score is 5 to 0, Stoke City, who has shown overwhelming performance and confirmed to advance to the quarterfinals. ]

[Jamie Lee, who recorded 3 assists, was selected as the Man of Match in the second game following the first game. ]

With this, Stoke City advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with an aggregate score of 2-0 in the first leg and 3-0 in the second leg with an aggregate score of 5-0.

Considering that this season was our first advance, it was a really great achievement.

‘Is there no need to use the dragon alone?’

However, it came a little differently to Jamie.

Over the years Stoke City have grown unbelievably. It was not just the size of the team, but also the skill of the team.

Even so, Jamie tried to solve everything alone, as if the team was still at the bottom of the third division.

‘I don’t have to write a dragon alone anymore. Let’s use our colleagues more.’

However, starting from the second game against Barcelona, I realized something new.

‘yes. In the meantime, I’ve been feeding too much. Now, even if I throw it in moderation, they will take it and eat it.’

Jamie decided to change his play.

[The Champions League is followed by the FA Cup. Stoke City against Manchester United after Barcelona. ]

[ Will we win the FA Cup after winning the League Cup? Attention ‘focus’ on the FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester United]

After the match against Barcelona, the FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester United.

[ Jamie Lee, are you running again? ]

[Lee is unstoppable after crossing the half line. Now, it is a well-known fact to general soccer fans, right? hahahaha. ]

[ kid. It’s different… isn’t it? Pass to Brian Lecca. ]

Jamie showed off the pressure moment by moment, but he didn’t advance from the half line to the front of the penalty box, overtaking all the defenders like he used to.

[Exchanging two-to-one passes with Ned Keating. Shall we break through directly this time? ]

[Ah, pass to Jorge Benjor. ]

[Beng, tap and go. This time Bengi tries to break through. ]

Also, even if he caught the ball near the penalty box, he did not ‘feed’ a decisive opportunity to his teammates.

[ Jamie Lee pulls the defense out of the penalty box. ]

[The middle was empty… ]

[Ah, not Damien Manibel, but a pass to Ben, who is penetrating from the inside! ]

[Beng, Jorge Benjor·······. ]

[Gool! great! Jorge Benjor scores a direct goal past two defenders! ]

I just helped my colleagues create opportunities or make decisions for themselves.

[Starting in FA Cup quarterfinals and semifinals. Jamie Lee, “There is no physical strain.” ]

[Jamie Lee, will you show ‘altruistic play’ in the semifinal against Tottenham Hotspur? ]

The same was true in the FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham a few days later.

[‘It’s not a one-man team anymore.’ Stoke City strengthened teamwork through Lee’s selfless play. Defeat Tottenham Hotspur. ]

I played as a starter, but I didn’t try to solve it myself like I used to. Nonetheless, Stoke City managed to win against strong Tottenham Hotspur.

[Damien Manible recovers scoring power. Jamie Lee, Pavel Kopekki, 3rd FA Cup scorer ]

[ Jorge Benjor, whose breakthrough success rate has greatly increased. Recorded an assist in the FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham. “Thanks to Jamie Lee.” ]

[ babyn ** – I think the form of the Stoke players has come up. ]

[obeta** – That’s right. You score evenly. ]

[ twosa** – Jamie Lee was just more focused on helping. ]

Jamie’s choice had two effects. One was to preserve one’s physical strength, and the other was to increase the activity of one’s colleagues.

[French Ligue 1 champion, Stoke City, who faced off against Paris Saint-Germain, a team that advanced to the semifinals of last year’s Champions League. ]

[‘The key is midfield?’ Jamie Lee and Denis Ronet head-to-head ‘concentration’]

[Jamie Lee said, “I am not interested in the comparison with Denis Lone. Soccer is a sport played by eleven people.” ]

And this was also noticeable in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

**

A few days later, Stoke City’s home stadium Bet 777 Stadium.

“Lee, did you fail to adjust your conditioning? Weren’t you overdoing it last night?”

“…”

Jamie ignored Denis Lornais, who was following him and constantly trying to trash talk.

“With all the media talking about it, how can you not score a goal? uh? is not it?”

Hue the great ducks army admiral is coming for u all

No, I tried to ignore it.

“Yeah, there it is. Aren’t your teams losing too much to keep taunting?”

However, in the 40th minute of the second half, I couldn’t stand it and said a word.

As Jamie said, the current score was 4-0.

If you lose one-sidedly, no matter how mentally good a player is, you will feel intimidated. No, if you have a good mentality, a bad mind, intimidation, and a brain, it was normal to be ‘not showing up’.

However, Paris Saint-Germain’s ace Denis Ronet constantly attempted provocations that did not seem like provocations.

“I’m saying this because I’m ahead by four goals, and you scored none of them.”

“···done. Let’s not talk.”

Jamie shook his head and closed his mouth again. It wasn’t worth fighting for.

Two-woong.

Of course, Jamie wasn’t too broad-minded to let that go.

In the 44th minute of the second half, right before the end of the game. Jamie attempted a direct breakthrough for the first time.

As if Denis Lorne had been waiting for him, he fought hard, but to no avail.

[ eee-YeeeA! ]

Jamie scored after beating four Paris Saint-Germain players, including Denis Ronet.

[Gooooool! Jamie Lee finally scores a goal after a direct run! ]

[Jamie Lee, who scores three assists and even scores directly! ]

[I can’t believe I still have that kind of stamina even though it’s just before the end of the game. That’s really great! ]

The result is 5 to 0.

“What, nothing more to say?”

“…”

Apart from Denis Ronet’s provocations, Jamie played well in repeated starts that day, scoring a total of 1 goal and 3 assists.

In addition, Keating, Ben, and Damien each scored a goal, showing good performance throughout.

[Damien Manible, who recorded ‘multi-goals’, was selected as Man of Match. ]

[Jamie Lee recorded ‘3 assists’ in the second game following the first game. ]

The second leg proceeded in much the same way. Every time Jamie got the ball, the opposing defense overreacted, creating opportunities for other Stoke players.

[comprehensive score 8 to 0. Stoke City, who achieved the greatest victory ever. ]

[Advanced to the quarterfinals in his first appearance. How far is Stoke City’s potential? ]

The result was a combined score of 8-0, advancing to the semifinals.

[Who is Stoke City’s quarterfinal opponent? ]

[ Last season’s Champions League runner-up, Bayern Munich ]

[ Jamie Lee vs Carl Frey? Focus on establishing a head-to-head match for 2nd and 3rd place in the Ballon d’Or. ]

And Stoke City faced Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.
