The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 1210
1210 Champions League Group’s First Opponent
It’s over!
Leeds United lost 1-2 to Sheffield Wednesday!
Yes, Leeds United lost again!
This is Leeds United’s third consecutive Premier League defeat of the season, Albertini saw this, speechless for a long time!
He thought the Leeds United players were doing well in this game, but they met David Beckham, who scored goals and assisted Leeds United to the end.
Albertini was really speechless when he saw this!
Could it be that Leeds United are now Mr. Good, sending benefits specifically to those Mr. Calamity?
Think about it first, Tottenham Hotspur’s Pavlyuchenko. This guy is staring at a very big halo joining Tottenham Hotspur. Countless fans have high expectations for him. However, this fellow’s performance after arriving at Tottenham Hotspur was not satisfactory, and he is now the one who is about to be beaten into a cold shoulder by Tottenham Hotspur.
However, at this moment, Leeds United extended a helping hand and directly gave the other party a battle to become famous. They scored two spectacular goals, even a year-long series of goals.
This was to ease Pavlyuchenko’s embarrassment at Tottenham Hotspur and give the other team a second chance.
Later, it was Blackburn striker Jason Roberts. This fellow hadn’t scored for a long time. The goal shortage had lasted from last season to this season. At this time, Leeds United did a good deed, allowing them to score two goals as soon as they opened. Isn’t this urgent?
Finally today, Leeds United face Sheffield on Wednesday, with former England international David Beckham scoring a goal and assisting him to finish off Leeds United on his own.
This was simply giving people pillows when they were sleeping!
Now, in China, many fans are giving Albertini a nickname-impatient Demi!
Now it’s time to rain Demi!
Fortunately, Albertini could not see these things and he did not understand them. Otherwise, he really did not know what kind of reaction he would have.
However, Albertini was in a terrible mood.
He really gave his opponent a boost, allowing these people to rely on their strength to send me to Qingyun!
Albertini was truly speechless.
More importantly, after losing this game, Leeds United are now two wins and three losses in the Premier League. This result is relatively low in the Premier League.
Now the Premier League rankings are like this, the first place is Chelsea, they are now a five-game win, got 15 points, top of the list. It was a tough result. Chelsea Football Club have had a good season. Carlo Ancelotti seems to be in full control of Chelsea.
Ranked second were Red Manchester United, who were 4-1 with 12 points and scored more goals than their city rivals Manchester City, as well as Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield on Wednesday and Leiden Oriental Club.
Yes, there are five teams with four wins and one loss.
They are second to Manchester United, third to Sheffield on Wednesday, fourth to Manchester City, fifth to Leiden Orient and sixth to Tottenham Hotspur.
Ranked seventh in the league was Liverpool, who were three wins and two losses, and there were still many teams like them.
Leeds United, on the other hand, are ranked 13th in the Premier League with six points in two wins and three losses.
This result was really terrible. After five matches, Leeds United were ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League. This was beyond many people’s expectations. Previously, many people didn’t think that Leeds United’s results this season would be so bad. This was a really bad start.
They thought that Leeds United should be able to enter the top ten in the early stages, but they didn’t expect that Leeds United would be even worse than they had imagined!
At this moment, they were all smiling bitterly, not knowing what to say.
I never thought that it was not that they underestimated Leeds United, but that Leeds United were highly valued by them.
Looking at Albertini’s results, these people couldn’t help but wonder how Zhong Cheng would react if he came back now.
At this moment, the Leeds United fans were in a very bad mood when they saw this result. This was really different from what they had imagined. It seemed that Albertini was really younger.
Of course, Zhong Cheng was even younger. However, Zhong Cheng was young and talented. Zhong Cheng was not an ordinary person.
Now the Leeds United fans really miss Zhong Cheng and hope that the Chinese layer can come back quickly.
To tell the truth, Albertini also hoped that Zhong Cheng would return as soon as possible.
Recently Albertini has felt a lot of pressure and now Leeds United have failed in succession. If this continued, he really didn’t know how to explain it to Zhong Cheng.
But at this time, Albertini did not know when Zhong Cheng would return.
Albertini is wondering if Zhong Cheng will be back when the Champions League comes?
Obviously, Zhong Cheng did not return.
Albertini could only continue to carry the heavy burden of leading Leeds United out of England and flying to Belgium to face Standard Liege Club.
Yes, this is the first round of the Champions League group stage of the season. Leeds United are the standard Liege team for the away game against Belgium.
The Standard Liege Club is a big Belgian club and their results are very good.
However, in front of many mainstream European media, they believed that Standard Liege’s strength was still much weaker than Leeds United’s. Leeds United should be able to win this match.
Yes, even with the current Leeds United, they can still win!
Albertini is also very confident about this match. He knows about Standard Liege Club and has the information on Standard Liege in his possession. He believes Leeds United will beat Standard Liege and believes in his players.
However, Albertini is still under pressure.
Since the team had already lost three consecutive games, Leeds United could no longer afford to lose.
Albertini came to Belgium with confidence to face Leeds United’s first Champions League opponent of the season Standard Liege. Leeds United played away at Maurice Davrassen Stadium.
Although Morris Davrason Stadium was not a Demon Stadium, the atmosphere was very good. Standard Liege fans were very enthusiastic and the atmosphere they created was very good. The Leeds United players also felt a bit of pressure.
But the Leeds United players are confident they can win.
Unfortunately, Standard Liege had given Leeds United a go at the start of the game.
Standard Liege took the lead with his first shot in 116 seconds!
Shortly after the start of the game, Standard Liege’s players were blocked from crossing the bottom line. Standard Liege had the chance to get a corner kick. The Standard Liege players immediately drove the football out and it flew into Leeds United’s restricted area.
In Leeds United’s box, player M’Bia cleared the area with a sloppy heel pass and was intercepted by Standard Liege’s Mangala. Then, he swiftly waved the ball past Hedilla, who was pouncing on him, and lowered his left foot into the lower-right corner of the net from the edge of the box.
In front of the goal, Simon Mignolet reacted very quickly, but he couldn’t pounce on the football.
Because it was a dead end!
The Standard Liege fans were very excited and excited. They were ahead of the strong Leeds United. This was really too happy. The Leeds United fans were singing their team songs loudly and cheering for their players.
This was the beginning of a dream!
However, what the Standard Liege fans did not expect was that their start would be more perfect.
In the fifth minute of the game, Standard Liege striker Jovanovic received a precise pass from midfield in the penalty area and was about to make a single strike. Leeds United centre-back Gary Cahill hooked Jovanovic.
This is a foul near the forbidden area line. The referee gave a firm penalty.
Standard Liege striker Jovanovic personally went to the penalty spot and shot straight at Leeds United’s Belgian goalkeeper Simon Mignolet, flying into the lower right corner of the Leeds United goal.
This angle was extremely tricky, no goalkeeper could do anything about it.
In the opening five minutes of the game, Liege was already two goals ahead, so the entire opening game should not be too perfect. The Standard Liege fans were all ecstatic. This match was their Standard Liege match. They were sure to win this match.
Albertini’s expression was extremely ugly. Could it be that Leeds United were going to lose four consecutive games?
Albertini couldn’t help but wave his hand, signaling the Leeds United players to attack crazily. Yes, the entire army attacked at this time.
The Leeds United players attacked crazily and surrounded Standard Liege. It was clear that Standard Liege had begun a defensive counterattack, waiting for Leeds United to make a mistake.
However, the Leeds United players were very ferocious. They had no chance to counterattack. Instead, they were overwhelmed by Leeds United. They also felt danger.
Finally in the 45th minute of the game, Hedilla, who was introduced by Leeds United this summer, was quickly inserted into the back of the opponent’s waist, shooting a low shot at the front of the restricted area. The football fiercely hit Mangala’s leg in the restricted area and rolled to the other side.
Standard Liege goalkeeper Jean-Claude Borat failed to react and the ball rolled into the goal.
Leeds United scored a point at the end of half-time, 1-2.
After the second half of the game, Leeds United continued to attack like crazy. Standard Liege felt that something was wrong and they did not continue to defend. Instead, they began to attack, preparing to suppress the Leeds United players.
But Leeds United’s offense was really strong and their defensive line was getting more and more dangerous.
On the 78th minute of the game, Gareth Bale, who was on the wing, crossed and the football flew into the restricted area of Standard Liege. Levandovsky rubbed his body in the box and the ball rolled towards Cristiano Ronaldo in the back.
Standard Liege players raised their hands to complain about Levandovsky’s handball foul, but the referee ignored them. Cristiano Ronaldo easily scored from behind the box and equalised 2-2.
At this time, Standard Liege fans and fans were extremely unconvinced!
However, there was no other way. The referee was certain of this!
The ball may have affected the mood of Standard Liege players. In the 92nd minute of the game, Leeds United had the chance to get a corner kick.
Gareth Bale curved the ball in. Everyone missed the ball at the front point, leaving the ball at the back point. Mesut Özil, who was lying in ambush at the back point, easily stretched his leg and blocked the ball into the goal.
Three to two, Leeds United killed their opponent at the last minute!
