The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 076

076 Come on, Let’s Sing!
On the pitch, Coventry goalkeeper Andrew Mariot knelt on his knees and covered his face with his gloves.

If Andrew Mariot had heard of the song of China’s Heavenly King Zhou, he would have looked up at the sky at an oblique angle of 45 degrees and sang affectionately,

“The counterattack came too quickly like a tornado

There was no time to attack and no time to flee

I don’t want to think anymore, I don’t want to think anymore

I don’t, I don’t, I can’t–catch the ball ~ ~ ~! ”

On the sidelines, Peter Reed was furious. He immediately turned around and fiercely smashed the half-bottle of water bottle into the ground. With a bang, water splashed everywhere, directly splashing all over Peter Reed’s feet.

“Defense! Defense! How did your Tamar defend? The backcourt defense is useless, can your Tamar still play well …” Peter Reed shouted at the stadium, still feeling anxious. “Defense! Defense! How did your Tamar defend?”

Actually, Peter Reed’s own voice died down at the end of the call.

Because the game played like this, mainly because of himself, his own reaction was a little slow, just now he was going to remind the players to strengthen the backcourt, do not give the opponent a chance.

Unfortunately, Peter Reed didn’t make it.

Peter Reed was so angry, damn it, why didn’t Leeds come early or late to fight back?

Peter Reed couldn’t help but turn to look at the Leeds United coaching bench.

The yellow-skinned boy he was very unhappy with was hugging his assistant crazily and waving his fists fiercely, as if he had won the world.

This lowly person’s ambition was too arrogant!

Peter Reed glared fiercely at Zhong Cheng and thought to himself, “I’ll let you be proud for a while. I’ll show you Leeds later! We’re sure to win this match in Coventry!”

–Division Line–

“Beautiful counterattack! Their defense was like a gust of wind. In the blink of an eye, Ribery sent the football into Coventry’s goal. Leeds United took the lead at their home court, and after half an hour of silencing, they took the lead! It was their first shot in the real sense of the game and it was a goal. The efficiency was really scary!

The commentator, Mark Lawrenson, was really shocked. He didn’t dare to underestimate Leeds United anymore.

When he learned that Madman Roja was the head coach of Leeds United, he ridiculed Zhong Cheng and his team during a game at Leeds United.

But now, his attitude had changed 180 degrees.

In the seven rounds of the Leeds League, he had commented on a total of five matches. Apart from the sixth round, Leeds United had not scored any goals, they had scored all the other matches. And he remembered the goals from Leeds United, which were carved almost in the same shape and were all counterattacked quickly.

Their counterattack speed was too fast, as fast as a tornado!

“This team has changed dramatically and their performance has exceeded our expectations. I know that there are a lot of media and fans who are not optimistic about Madman Loria, even mocking and questioning him crazily, even insulting him, but I want to say today that Madman Loria did well!”

Mark Lawrence said very seriously.

“I know, many people will think I’m crazy after hearing this. But I have to say, I’m not crazy!”

“I’ve explained all the games in Leeds United and I’m familiar with them. Let me tell you my personal opinion, my opinion of this team, my opinion of Madman Roja!”

“First of all, Leeds United gave me the first impression of being young. Madman Loria got this group of young players from all over the world. The average age of this team is less than 22, very young. At first, I thought Madman Loria was totally messing around and doing something wrong.”

“But I was really shocked to see these young players at Leeds United. Madman Loria simply had a pair of golden pupils. All of the young players he brought in were strong and had great potential. “Peeker and Ribery are the two biggest stars. Looking at their performances, I even think of Giggs, David Beckham and the others when they were young. I also think of Cowell, Ferdinand, Alan Smith and the others when they started their youth storms.”

“Crazy Roja is really amazing. His vision is enough to kill many football coaches in a second. For a coach like Pique and Ribery, finding one is enough to blow the whistle for a lifetime, but Crazy Roja actually found a bunch …”

‘”This shows that Madman Loria is not ordinary. He is definitely not a madman. Those who mock and slander Madman Loria are truly madmen. This guy is not a madman, but a genius. A genius in the real sense, a coaching genius that can shock the whole world!”

Mark Lawrence roared excitedly, singing a hymn to Zhong Cheng.

“Look at the changes in the team after the arrival of Madman Roja. In an ancient Chinese military book, their defense is Xu Rulin, not moving like a mountain. Their attack is as fast as the wind, and their aggression is as fiery as fire!”

“The thing that surprised me the most was the discipline of this young Leeds team. It surprised me too much! They don’t look like a young team in this respect, they look more like a mature and stable old team!”

“To be able to develop such a tactic, to make this young team into such a shining team, Madman Roja is definitely not crazy! I believe that at the end of this season, countless people will lose their chins!”

Mark Lawrenson is a man of great admiration.

Eddie Gray, who had once coached at Leeds United, had an ugly expression on his face. He opened his mouth but was silent for a long time!

–Division Line–

In this half-time, the people present remembered Leeds United’s counterattack, and remembered Ribery!

Many people were mocking Leeds United, claiming that Leeds United was a thief and did nothing. It was such a shameful and despicable action to steal a goal with just one chance!

The Coventry fans from afar were berating Leeds United, cursing Zhong Cheng loudly and venting their anger and dissatisfaction.

Bradley Wilson’s expression was extremely ugly as he stared at Zhong Cheng with a cold gaze from Siberia.

BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson described Leeds United as an assassin!

In Mark Lawrenson’s opinion, Leeds United was definitely a top assassin. If they didn’t move, they would. Once they moved, they would definitely kill him. This was simply the supreme essence of an assassin.

In the first half of the game, Leeds United used only one chance to score a goal and lead Coventry 1-0. Coventry, on the other hand, attacked from the start of the game until the end of the first half. They did not score and were instead ambushed.

This was efficiency. The efficiency of Leeds United was simply too shocking.

Mark Lawrenson’s assessment of Leeds United instantly spread. And from today onwards, Leeds United had another crooked name-Assassin!

–Division Line–

The second half of the match came faster than everyone had imagined. Coventry continued to play as they did in the first half. Peter Reed replaced a midfielder and a striker. He played four or three games. A violent attack, a fierce attack!

The decisive battle seemed to have arrived much earlier than everyone had expected.

Coventry’s attack was even more violent and ferocious. Their attack was like the tide brought by the tsunami, frantically rushing towards Leeds United.

However, Leeds United’s defensive line did withstand the test.

It also showed the crowd what Mark Lawrenson said about Leeds United’s defence: Xu Rulin was as motionless as a mountain!

Under the pressure of Coventry’s frenzied attack, the Leeds United youngsters had been able to stabilize his position, maintaining a perfect formation that was as neat as a forest. In the face of high-pressure attacks, the young players of Leeds United were all very steady, as calm as a mountain.

Facing such a defense was definitely a nightmare!

Now, the Coventry team was experiencing such a nightmare!

The Coventry players thought they had done the best they could in offense, they had performed perfectly, but against Leeds United’s tight defense they had no choice.

On the sidelines, Peter Reed kept howling crazily. This made the Coventry players more and more impatient. Seeing that there wasn’t much time left, they didn’t chase after the ball and directly kicked the ball into the restricted area of Leeds United or did it on their own.

Peter Reed has added two attacking players in a row, one forward and one attacking midfielder, bringing Coventry’s forward to four.

It could be seen that Peter Reed was going to have a fight with Leeds.

At this moment, Leeds United’s counterattack came again, and everyone present exclaimed in shock.

The substituted Albertini received a pass from Fraser Richardson, who had replaced Russ Diarra, and sent the ball to the side with a diagonal kick.

The young Allen Lennon quickly stepped forward and crossed the half-court. In front of him was a cry. The Rumble Prairies, let him roam freely!

On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng excitedly jumped up and waved his fist, roaring loudly, “Allen, charge, charge for me, break them, kill Coventry!”

Alan Lennon had only been replaced for a short while, and his physical fitness was very good. He caught up to the football and fiercely threw it out, striding forward with great strides.

Quick!

It was simply too fast!

The 33-year-old goalkeeper, Andrew Mariot, is going to sing “The Tornado” again: “The counterattack came too quickly like a tornado …”

There were only two centre-backs left in Coventry, while Leeds United attackers Alan Lennon, Huntelaar and Ribery fired three shots at the same time.

Three versus two in the front court!

The Coventry fans were completely scared out of their wits and were so nervous that they couldn’t make a sound.

The two centre-backs in Coventry didn’t dare to rush forward. They fought and retreated, retreating into the forbidden area. They stood firm and didn’t give their opponents a chance to enter the forbidden area.

However, this was not enough to defend against Leeds United’s long range shots!

Alan Lennon didn’t choose to shoot long range. At this time, Huntelaar stood in the restricted area without moving, while Ribery on the side quickly rushed out from behind Richard Shaw, who was at the back of the middle. At this time, Alan Lennon on the side seemed to have seen Ribery inserted in front of him and swung his leg straight into the cross.

Richard Shaw was so shocked that his first reaction was to charge out and catch up with Ribery.

All of a sudden, Richard Shaw reacted. Not good, he was fooled!

Richard Shaw remembered that he had rushed out to chase after Ribery, and that Huntelaar was empty behind him, wasn’t it? Danger!

However, it was too late for Richard Shaw to react, and the football flew over his head and back.

Richard Shaw immediately turned his head and saw Huntelaar jump up high and smash his head into the football, which flew rapidly towards Coventry’s goal.

Andrew Mariot couldn’t react and the football flew through Coventry’s door without any suspense.

Two to zero!
