An English football club of which the transfer fee of all 11 players in total is less than half of the transfer fee of one player in a prestigious club; 14th place during the 2014–2015 season at the Premier League champions, 19th place in the following seasons, and 0.02% of winning rate; it is Leicester City FC, the poorest club in the professional football world, where capital is led to championship. At the moment when the winner of the 2015–2016 Premier League was declared, they hugged each other in cheers because Leicester City FC was the champion.
How could this miraculous thing happen?
According to the analysis by football experts, Leicester City players lagged behind the prestigious teams in terms of a success rate of pass and ball share, but the physical activity while racing around the field and running speed were the highest. That much they played hard all over the field. The leadership of Manager Claudio Ranieri, who has helped these unknown players to get their best result, also played a role. He constantly interacted with the players and encouraged them with a gentle smile and inspired them with confidence and fighting spirit. This is the secret of the first winning in the 132-year history of the club that had always been in the low ranks.
