Morgan recalls Leicester City winning the title: a fantastic season, with Arsenal celebrating after the game being a turning point

Live Bar December 8, 2016 In the 2015-2016 season, under the leadership of Ranieri, Leicester City staged a miracle of grassroots teams crowning the Premier League. Then-captain Wes Morgan recently reminisced about that fantastic season in an interview with The Mirror and said the rivals' post-match celebrations after losing to Arsenal during the championship were successfully "stimulating" to the team.

On 14 February 2016, Arsenal beat Leicester City 2-1 at home, and since both teams were expected to win the title at the time, the match could be said to be a six-point battle. In the end, Arsenal laughed to the end with Welbeck's killer, and photos of players celebrating in the locker room after the game were taken and put online.

Morgan said: "When I saw the picture, it felt like they beat Barcelona, which also deeply stimulated us and successfully inspired us to do our best to win the championship. ”

"You know, before this game, we beat the powerful Manchester City 3-1, and in that game we were more determined to win the title, but then Arsenal poured us a basin of cold water, that defeat made us lose for a while, after the game we were a little confused with each other, thinking 'What the hell happened in this game?' ”

"We were all upset inside until someone pulled out their phones and opened social media pages to show us the images of Arsenal celebrating after beating us, and the first look at the pictures felt like they had won the title. We looked at each other and wondered: we had only been in the Premier League for less than two years, how could they be as happy as they were to beat Barcelona? ”

"Those pictures and videos also succeeded in influencing us, reinforcing our conviction that we would never let up until we won the title. You can look back at the fixtures of that season, we haven't lost in the league since, and it's fair to say that losing to Arsenal was a turning point in that season. We bounced back strongly after losing to Arsenal, especially when we were being chased by our opponents at the time of the table, and that loss and performance after the loss was really too important. ”

"We're trying our best to win on the pitch, and the opponents won't disarm so easily, they'll do whatever it takes to make it difficult for you. In the 27th round against Norwich, we bombarded the opponent in front of the goal and couldn't score the ball until the 89th minute when Uloja knocked on the opponent's goal and scored the crucial 3 points. ”

'After losing to Arsenal, the team becomes more united and sometimes such adversity is more valuable than a five-game winning streak, knowing that the winner is the one who laughs last.
