1115 Not in the Top Four of the Premier League for the First Time?
Zero to zero, this score was not a good thing for Leeds United!
Because as long as Barcelona score away from home, Leeds United have to score one more goal than anyone else, which is very difficult.
Of course, Leeds United could also use their own strong defenses to keep Barcelona from scoring a goal, but with Barcelona’s offensive prowess, it was actually quite difficult.
Therefore, after returning to the home court, this match was also a test for Leeds United.
Pique did not start in the first leg for some reason. Therefore, Zhong Cheng did not meet Peek, but Guardiola.
Seeing Guardiola again, Zhong Cheng felt a little strange.
Of course, Guardiola’s feeling was also very strange.
The first time the two met was when Zhong Cheng hoped to bring Guardiola to Leeds United. Unfortunately, Guardiola did not agree, and Zhong Cheng chose Albertini.
Now it can be confirmed that Guardiola’s choice was wrong.
Back then, he did not come to Leeds United. The end of his career was actually not very good. Even if he went to West Asia to search for gold, there was nothing commendable about it. In the end, it was no different from retiring from the game.
On the contrary, Albertini’s arrival at Leeds United brought new glory.
I wonder if Guardiola will regret it now? Regret not choosing Leeds United?
In fact, he should not regret it, after all, he has become Barcelona’s head coach.
Guardiola is ahead of Albertini in becoming a coach.
Moreover, he, Guardiola, has become the head coach of Barcelona, one of the world’s top clubs. He should not regret it at all.
Now Guardiola’s goal is to bring Barcelona back to its peak!
Zhong Cheng once again gathered behind his back and thought that Guardiola was indeed a bit strange. Indeed, Guardiola was still Guardiola. There was a good show to watch next.
Zhong Cheng didn’t dare to underestimate Guardiola at all. This fellow’s strength was very strong. In Zhong Cheng’s memory, Guardiola led the Barcelona team to start the Dream Three Dynasty.
And Guardiola’s dream three dynasties began this season.
To be honest, though, Guardiola’s first Champions League title at Barcelona was not quite what he deserved. Why do countless fans claim Barcelona are UEFA’s godsons? It has something to do with this.
In Zhong Cheng’s memory, the team that made it into the top four this season should be Chelsea, who will play Barcelona. The two sides also drew 0-0 in the first leg. After returning to their home ground, Chelsea ushered in the second leg.
Chelsea took the lead in the ninth minute when Michael Essien broke through Barcelona’s goal. However, this was the beginning of the Chelsea nightmare. The Chelsea players were repeatedly knocked down by the Barcelona players in the penalty area, but the referee Henningque ignored them and chose to ignore them.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Pique made a public handball in the restricted area. Referee Henning was still ignorant of it. Iniesta equalised in the 93rd minute.
In the final moments of injury time, Ballack’s kick was blocked by Eto’o’s hand in the restricted area. Henning remained indifferent and ignored it. Angry Ballack rushed up to Henning to argue and was given a yellow card warning.
The Chelsea fans almost rushed forward to beat the damned referee. Henning was chased by the Chelsea players. He ran away immediately after the game and didn’t even take back the football. He was really afraid that he wouldn’t be able to leave Stamford Bridge safely.
It was with the help of referee Henning that Barcelona advanced to the final with a goal away from home.
In this match, Henning had killed at least three Chelsea penalties!
After the game ended, the angry Drogba rushed to the camera and roared madly, “This is a humiliating game!”
It is said that UEFA did not want the Champions League final to become a civil war for the Premier League teams again, so they started a farce. Barcelona’s status as the illegitimate son of UEFA has since become even more solid.
This game is known as the “Stamford Bridge tragedy!”
Therefore, Guardiola, who had just taken over Barcelona, had yet to build Barcelona into a winning team. This still needed time to accumulate.
Of course, Zhong Cheng’s heart was also beating wildly. In his memories, such a farce had appeared in that parallel world. Then would such a farce appear in the space-time he was currently in? Will UEFA also not want the Champions League final to become a civil war in the Premier League and interfere with it?
Zhong Cheng’s eyebrows furrowed, his thoughts tens of millions!
Another semi-final is the civil war in the Premier League, and one team is sure to make it to the final.
If UEFA doesn’t want this game to become a civil war in the Premier League, their next goal is to get rid of Leeds United and let Barcelona advance!
Therefore, Zhong Cheng’s mood was extremely depressed, and his mood was extremely complicated!
What made Zhong Cheng’s mood even more complicated was a recent UEFA official announcement that the referee of Barcelona and Leeds United’s UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg had been temporarily changed and the former Italian referee Roberto Rossetti had been replaced by Norwegian Tom Henning.
Seeing this, Zhong Cheng was determined!
To be honest, Italian referee Roberto Rossetti is a good referee. He was praised as “the jewel in the crown of the Italian referee” by famous Italian referee Collina.
To be honest, Zhong hopes the referee will referee their second leg against Barcelona.
The referees for this match had been arranged a long time ago, but UEFA suddenly made a change. They are said to have given the reason that Italian referee Roberto Rossetti was suddenly injured and was unable to referee the match.
So UEFA changed the referee and asked Norwegian Tom Henning to oversee the match.
What made Zhong Cheng even more speechless was that this referee had a resounding title in the circle, “Official Whistle”.
Tom Henning is a Norwegian psychologist. He was not officially a referee until 1980, but he was only an international referee for the siege in 1994.
However, from 2001 to 2006, he was the best referee in Norway for five consecutive years, refereeing many international competitions. However, his reputation was not very good, as if he was an official chess piece.
Anyway, this guy’s rating wasn’t very good.
Now that UEFA has sent him to referee the Leeds United game against Barcelona in the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, Zhong Cheng can’t help but think too much about it.
In his memory, this person had created a farce!
Zhong Cheng’s mood is very unhappy, this UEFA seems to really do not want to see the Champions League final into the Premier League civil war ah!
If this continues, the Champions League will soon become the FA Cup of England.
Zhong Cheng was very unhappy, but he also reminded the Leeds United players that they had to be careful in the next match. Tom Henning must not be given any chance to succeed.
Zhong Cheng was prepared, compared to Chelsea who were not prepared, Leeds United should be much better!
Of course, besides being wary of Tom Henning, Zhong Cheng also had to be wary of Barcelona.
Barcelona’s strength is quite strong, but to tell the truth, they really are not strong enough to make people feel discouraged.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng was confident in this match.
Zhong Cheng is now preparing for the second leg of the Champions League semi-final and believes they can win this match.
And now Leeds United are facing the 35th Premier League match, which is also important for them.
Now Leeds United are not even in fourth place in the Premier League, it is very dangerous.
In this round of matches, Leeds United played Stoke City away. The opponents are now ranked 12th in the Premier League, eight points ahead of the relegation zone. As long as Stoke City do not lose in the last four rounds, their reputation will be in danger of relegation. Of course, even if they lost, they wouldn’t necessarily be demoted.
Therefore, the Stoke City team is actually very good.
Leeds United’s opponents weren’t very strong in this match, but Zhong Cheng didn’t want to play with the main players because the semi-final of the Champions League would be in the middle of next week. Leeds United’s main players had to prepare for that match.
At the same time, Leeds United’s rivals Arsenal are away in this round, they are challenging Portsmouth. Portsmouth are ranked just behind Stoke City, just one point behind them, so Leeds United are on par with Arsenal.
And Arsenal are set to save for the Champions League semi-final in midweek, a game that will be the same for Arsenal and Leeds United.
Arsenal lost 1-0 to Manchester United in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final. They will be knocking Manchester United out in the middle of next week, so they will try to stay as strong as they can in this game.
It is clear that Arsenal also want the Premier League to go hand in hand with the Champions League.
In this round of matches, Zhong Cheng had sent out all the substitutes to deal with this match. In the end, Leeds United beat Stoke City 1-0 with a goal from Lewandowski and scored three difficult points.
However, Leeds United did not overtake Arsenal. Arsenal did well, beating Portsmouth 3-0 away and scoring three points, continuing to lead Leeds United.
Yes, after this round, there are only the last three rounds left. There are not many chances left for Leeds United. Could it be that Leeds United are really going to miss out on the top four of the Premier League this season?
If that’s the case, then this is the first time Zhong Cheng has failed to qualify for the top four of the Premier League after leading Leeds United to upgrade to the Premier League. This is not a good record!
