The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 115
115 Is This the Sixth Consecutive League Defeat?
One to zero!
Just five minutes into the game, Ipswich scored at home and was ahead!
It was their young striker Darren Bent who scored!
It was Darren Bent’s ninth goal of the season, and Darren Bent was so excited that he turned around and ran to the stands where the Ipswich fans were gathered, saluting the Ipswich fans on the stands.
The Ipswich fans were very excited, learning Darren Bent’s movements, saluting together and celebrating together.
In the stands, Bradley Wilson jumped up excitedly and kept on jumping up and down.
Madman Roja, daddy, how are you going to die this time?
The entire Portmanlo Stadium was filled with the excited and joyful voices of Ipswich fans. That voice was like a tsunami, like a landslide, like an earth crack …
Leeds United goalkeeper Scott Carson raised his hand helplessly. There was nothing he could do about it.
Scott Carson did his best, but he failed to defend Leeds United’s goal and was sad.
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng was also very helpless. When he was in the dressing room, he had already reminded the players of Leeds United to pay attention to the defense of these two strikers, Ipswich. However, this time, the previous point had actually fallen.
On the pitch, Vermaelen covered his face with both hands and was filled with regret. He had just made a mistake!
Peeker walked forward and patted Vermaelen’s shoulder as a sign of comfort!
–Division Line–
The balance of the game has been upset and this is definitely not good news for Leeds United.
Later games will be very difficult for Leeds United. After all, Leeds United play a defensive counter-attack. If they continue to defend, perhaps the score will be fixed.
Zhong Cheng crossed his chest and stared at the stadium, thinking, what should we do next?
Zhong Cheng soon discovered that Leeds United did not need to make any changes because Ipswich, who had taken the lead, was still attacking, crazily attacking.
Zhong Cheng knew that Ipswich wanted to send a wave of energy to take Leeds away.
Zhong Cheng couldn’t help but turn his head to look at Ipswich’s head coach Joe Royle. At this moment, Joe Royle was staring at the stadium without noticing Zhong Cheng’s reaction.
At this moment, the Ipswich team’s attack came again.
This time Ipswich’s attack clock walks, Kevin Hollock speeds out of the middle of Modric, drives the ball forward at high speed, and before Albertini rushes up, he suddenly throws a straight ball and the football rolls quickly towards Darren Bent on the line of the restricted area.
Darren Bent took the opportunity to shoot and the football slipped out of the goal and out of the baseline.
The Ipswich fans immediately sighed in regret.
Zhong Cheng sucked in a breath of cold air. Ipswich’s attack was really good.
Zhong Cheng immediately came to the sidelines and loudly signaled for the Leeds players to strengthen their defenses. They definitely couldn’t let Ipswich’s players handle the ball calmly.
The Leeds United players were very serious and it was a tough game for them.
Leeds United have significantly increased their defensive strength, and Ipswich’s offense has been affected by the impact and is gradually unable to play. And Ipswich’s players on the pitch are often overturned, which makes Ipswich fans very dissatisfied.
“Butcher! You damn gladiators! Die, trash Leeds United!” Roared the Ipswich fans crazily.
Ipswich coach Joe Royle also shouted loudly from the sidelines, expressing his dissatisfaction and exerting pressure on the referee and fourth official.
However, the referee did not react. In his opinion, Leeds United’s defence was reasonable.
–Division Line–
The competition gradually fell silent and seemed a little dull.
At this time, Ipswich’s setback in attack also slowed down the pace and speed of the attack. Now that they were leading, it was not them who were in a hurry. So Joe Royle signaled for Ipswich’s goal to slow down the pace of the attack.
The Leeds United slowly expanded outwards and pounced outwards.
Suddenly, Leeds midfielder Kevin Mordridge cut off the football beneath Kevin Hollock’s feet and pushed it directly to the ribs of Ipswich’s box.
“Ah, the ball is broken, Leeds United is broken, counterattack!” Exclaimed Mark Lawrence.
Ribery rushed to the ribs of Ipswich’s box on the side and got the football first. He quickly passed the football into Ipswich’s box and the football flew towards Huntelaar in the middle.
“Huntelaar, header!” Mark Lawrenson roared.
Huntelaar saw that he was jumping up high, but suddenly a figure flashed in front of him, stepping forward and pushing the football out of the restricted area.
“Ah! Jason DeVos headed the ball out. Aiya, that was close. Jason DeVos almost scored an own goal. The football brushed the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line. It was dangerous!” Said Mark Lawrenson.
The Ipswich fans were also shocked. The Leeds United counterattack was truly formidable. They definitely couldn’t give Leeds United another chance to counterattack.
Joe Royle was also shocked. He rushed to the side and shouted, “Pay attention! I told you before the game, you can’t give them a chance to retaliate. Pay attention to the ball. Pay attention to the defense!”
The Ipswich players nodded in agreement.
Corner. Leeds United got a corner!
Modric curled the ball into Ipswich’s goal, with Pikeli heading over Drisa Diallo.
Unfortunately, under the interference, Pique did not exert enough strength and the football was directly hugged by goalkeeper Kevin Davis.
–Division Line–
Half an hour had passed since the first half of the match, and the score on the field was still 1-0.
Over the past half hour Ipswich has controlled the pace of the game and they have been a few more opportunities to threaten Leeds United’s goal. Their offensive mix is really sharp and has created a lot of trouble for Scott Carson.
Leeds United also had four counter-attacks, two of which were excellent. Unfortunately, Leeds United did not score.
The match was still going on. After a period of silence, Ipswich suddenly exerted his strength again.
Finnish midfielder Shevchenko Kucci retracted the pass and Tony Tinen rolled the ball at Shevchenko Kucci’s feet.
Shevchenko Kucci did not stop the ball but quickly pushed the ball to the side while he turned around and rushed into the Leeds United box.
Tommy Miller was caught on the flank by Gary Kelly, who had just caught the ball when he was knocked to the ground, and Ipswich fans roared madly at Gary Kelly. However, the referee did not react. This was a reasonable collision.
Fortunately, the football was still under Ipswich’s feet, so the Ipswich fans stopped.
The soccer ball was quickly intercepted by full-back Matthew Richards, who rushed to Gary Kelly’s side like a gust of wind and went downstairs.
“Ah! Matthew Richards, he’s gone. Leeds United’s defensive line is torn open! Danger!” Mark Lawrenson immediately exclaimed.
The Ipswich fans immediately cheered excitedly and cheered for their players.
After passing Gary Kelly, Matthew Richards chopped the ball straight into the Leeds box.
Leeds United centre-back Pick immediately rushed out to intercept Matthew Richards. But just as Pique rushed out, Matthew Richards gently jumped the football up and it flew up at top speed.
Matthew Richards picked up the ball so nicely that it flew over Pique’s head towards Finnish sub Shevchenko Kucci behind him.
Shevchenko Kucci took a step forward and jumped high into the air, ready to head home.
“The Finnish Flying Man is here again. Leeds United is in danger!” Mark Lawrenson’s voice seemed to have changed. The situation was extremely dangerous.
Beside Shevchenko Kucci, Vermaelen gritted his teeth and fought for the top with all his might, causing great trouble for Shevchenko Kucci.
Shevchenko Kucci frowned. The boy next to him was too disgusting, making it difficult for him to exert his strength.
Shevchenko Kucci knew it would be hard for him to head. His mind instantly turned, and he headed straight behind the ball, sending the ball towards the middle of the road behind him.
“Ah! It’s not a header! It’s a backstroke. Leeds United are in danger!” Mark Lawrenson’s expression changed in shock.
The faces of the Leeds United players changed as the football flew towards Darren Bent in midair.
Finished!
In front of the goal, Scott Carson rushed out, like a hungry tiger pouncing on a sheep, like a lion coming out of a cage, extremely fast, gritting his teeth and pouncing out.
Darren Bent in the forbidden area didn’t notice Scott Carson lunging out. Darren Bent’s eyes were fixed on the flying football. He kicked fiercely at the football at the right time and kicked it!
A loud bang!
“Ah!” A miserable scream rang out, causing one’s hair to stand on end!
All the fans at the scene sucked in a breath of cold air, and their hair stood on end!
“Ah! Scott Carson! Scott Carson pounced on Darren Bent. He threw Darren Bent to the ground. A penalty. It was a penalty! Scott Carson is finished! … Hiss!” Mark Lawrence took a deep breath and couldn’t bear to watch.
All the Ipswich fans roared madly, cursing at Scott Carson. This damned fellow didn’t save him. It was a malicious foul, a red card!
Scott Carson knew he couldn’t hit the ball. He didn’t want Darren Bent to empty the goal, so he chose to directly hit Darren Bent!
“Referee, red card, penalty!” On the sidelines, Ipswich’s head coach, Joe Royle, roared madly and was very excited.
Zhong Cheng frowned slightly. Everyone could clearly see the ball and could not argue.
Zhong Cheng realized that something was wrong. He immediately turned around and shouted at Zhong Zheng on the bench, “Zhong Zheng, go warm up!”
Zhong Zheng was slightly stunned, then quickly took off his coat and rushed out to warm up!
In the stands, Bradley Wilson’s eyes lit up when he saw this!
Madman Loria, the heavens are going to kill you! Madman Loria, this time, you’re dead!
“Ah! Red card! We didn’t see wrongly. The referee showed a red card to Scott Carson and he was sent off. The referee also gave Ipswich a penalty. Leeds United are in danger of losing six consecutive league matches!” Mark Lawrenson immediately shouted.
Zhong Zheng’s expression was serious as he warmed up on the sidelines, trying his best to open his body.
The media reporters immediately focused their cameras on Zhong Zheng, who was warming up on the sidelines. They frantically pressed the shutter and waited for this moment!
