The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 129

129 Listen to Me, Who Else Is Not Convinced?
Mick McCarthy was filled with regret. How could he be one step slower?

Again?

Yes, this was the second time Mick McCarthy had been told by Zhong Cheng. Sunderland suffered the same result in the first leg. He actually fell twice in the same pit, and Mick McCarthy was almost crying from his own stupidity.

Mick McCarthy couldn’t help but turn to look at Leeds United’s head coach, Zhong Cheng.

This young fellow really had a way of coaching the team and the players. He was extremely shocked. Where did this fellow learn this from? When did he start learning all this? You must know that this little fellow is only 22 years old now.

Twenty-two years old is a young player even amongst the players, let alone a football coach. This is simply too young, too young to believe!

However, it was this young fellow who led his team to second place in the league, a result that Mick McCarthy admired endlessly.

Mick McCarthy couldn’t help but glance at Zhong Cheng.

Mick McCarthy wondered what kind of height this little fellow could reach in the future.

Shaking his head, Mick McCarthy stopped thinking about these questions. What he had to think about now was what to do next?

Obviously, Mick McCarthy wanted to score three points at home. But in the current situation, could Sunderland really score three points? Mick McCarthy now had a tough choice. Should he withdraw and defend this average, or should he use the advantage of his home court to attack and snatch a three-point lead?

If they defended, Sunderland would definitely get a point, because Leeds United would not be able to attack. If they attacked ferociously, it would be a bit risky. The Leeds United counterattack was extremely sharp. As long as they gave their opponent a chance, Sunderland would be hanging in the balance.

So, right now, Mick McCarthy was conflicted.

–Division Line–

“Attack! Attack! Kill Leeds United! We want three points! Kill Madman Loria!”

“Attack! Berserk Leeds, we want three points! Three points! Three points! Attack! Attack! Attack! Attack with all your might!”

The Sunderland fans roared madly in the stands, their voices extremely loud. The whole stadium was filled with shouts of attack. It could be seen that the Sunderland fans did not accept the draw. They wanted to win!

The will of all Sunderland fans made Mick McCarthy determined to attack!

The game started anew, and Sunderland were pushing hard, attacking in full force!

This time, Sunderland did not attack Virginia Mullen. Virginia Mullen had taught them a profound lesson. The Sunderlanders would not be tricked again.

Winger, winger Julio Arca suddenly sent out a cross and Bridges jumped high in the middle, ready to head in. Vermaelen stretched out his head first and pushed the football out fiercely.

“Nice defense, Ville Mullen did a good job!” Mark Lawrenson praised.

Outside the restricted area, Sunderland’s backside rushed up with a violent long-range shot. This kick seemed to be a helpless move, but it made a very beautiful long-range shot. The Sunderland fans on the scene were extremely surprised and jumped up one after another.

“Sunderland shot from afar. Leeds United is in danger!” Mark Lawrenson was also surprised by this long-range shot.

The ball was as fast as lightning and shot into the upper left corner of the goal with a strange arc. All the Sunderland fans believed that the goal was certain to be scored.

With a loud bang, the Sunderlanders roared with incomparable regret.

‘”Beautiful save! Mystical save, Aldrich Bell! Perfect save, he actually managed to block this incredibly strange long shot. Aldrich is really amazing, my God, David Seaman is right, this guy is a genius!” Mark Lawrenson exclaimed.

Corner, Sunderland corner!

Julio Alca curved the ball out and Gary Brin pushed it out of the baseline with Vermaelen’s interference.

Sunderland’s offense was sharp, but Mick McCarthy was worried that he kept telling his defenders on the sidelines to be on guard and not give Leeds a chance to counter-attack from time to time.

–Division Line–

Zhong Cheng was sitting on the sidelines with his hands crossed over his chest, quietly watching all of this.

Zhong Cheng was extremely calm, not anxious at all. Both sides’ physical fitness had declined, but Leeds United’s fitness was clearly much better than the Sunderlanders’, thanks to Ortega.

The Leeds United players are doing a good job defending, especially Vermaelen. This guy really shocked him. Zhong Cheng can’t stand on the sidelines and Vermaelen applauds.

Zhong Cheng turned to look at Sunderland coach Mick McCarthy. Mick McCarthy just happened to look at Zhong Cheng. Mick McCarthy nodded slightly to Zhong Cheng and then turned to look at the field.

The match was very stalemate. Of course, Sunderland were still in the main attacking position. Their attacks were very fierce. Mick McCarthy was indeed an attacking head coach. He was going to kick Leeds United’s ass.

On the pitch, Sunderland attacked again, this time with Julio Alca.

Julio Arca was very active today, frequently attacking Leeds United. However, Sunderland striker Bridges was not in good shape today and was completely tortured by Vermaelen.

Julio Alca pretended to pass the ball to Bridges in front of him. He took advantage of the situation and went straight into the restricted area of Leeds United, causing him to immediately stand up and shoot. With a bang, the football shot towards Leeds United’s goal. The Sunderland fans were extremely excited.

Bang! Just as the football flew out, it was hit by Vermaelen who flew out from the side!

Vermaelen immediately jumped up and shouted at Russ Diarraha in front of him, “Follow him closely and keep an eye on him!”

Vermaelen’s domineering roar shocked everyone present. Was this still the little sheep from the first half?

Zhong Cheng was getting more and more satisfied. He kept applauding on the sidelines.

Corner kick, Sunderland get corner kick, Julio Alca kick directly into the Leeds United restricted area, Gary Brin and the others rushed out of the top.

“Aldrich! A beautiful attack! He held the football tightly in his hands! Counter attack, is this a counterattack?” Exclaimed Mark Lawrence.

The Sunderland players quickly defended themselves and they were really worried. On the sidelines, Mick McCarthy’s eyebrows twitched as he waved his hand incessantly, signaling the Sunderland players to hurry up and defend.

Zhong Zheng originally intended to launch a quick counterattack, but seeing Sunderland retreat very quickly, he had no intention of launching a quick counterattack. He held the football tightly in his arms.

–Division Line–

Time continued to pa. S.s, and the score between the two sides was still two to two.

Now the Sunderlanders were on the verge of madness. They were attacking crazily because there wasn’t much time left for them. They were bound to score three points at home.

Sunderland’s attack came again, and Liam Lawrenson, who was on the other side, drove the ball straight to Chimbonda. Chimbonda was a little short of Liam Lawrenson’s football, but Liam Lawrenson was shocked.

Liam Lawrenson suddenly crossed the ball diagonally into the Leeds United box, and striker Elliott stabbed forward with a shovel that slammed into the Leeds United goal.

“Shoot!” Mark Lawrenson roared worriedly.

With a bang, Pique’s long legs directly blocked the football’s bottom line, and the scene was filled with lamentation!

‘”Beautiful, Pick! Leeds United’s defensive line is too strong, too stable! Sunderland makes you feel like you have met an iron wall, almost unable to pierce through Leeds United’s defensive line. At this time, everyone must be amazed at Madman Loria’s talent selection!” Mark Lawrenson exclaimed.

Corner kick, Sunderland continue the corner kick.

Liam Lawrenson pushed the ball forward. Pikeley pressed down on Gary Brin and pushed the ball out of the box. Ribery and Lennon, who were on the edge of the field, quickly turned around and shot out like two arrows from the bowstring.

Albertini grabbed the football and quickly turned around. With a very coincidental movement, he gently stabbed the football forward. The football quickly pierced through Robinson’s crotch. Albertini passed Robinson and passed him directly.

The Sunderlanders were shocked when the football flew towards Lennon, which was beyond everyone’s expectation. Everyone thought that Albertini was looking for Ribery.

Lennon, who was in possession of the ball, immediately cut into the ball and swung his leg at the front of the box, sending the ball flying past full-back George McCartney’s bottom line.

Mick McCarthy heaved a sigh of relief.

“Lennon is still a little young. He should have passed it to Ribery. He should have it! A corner kick. Leeds United have a corner kick. There’s not much time left. Could it be that this game is going to be a draw?” Mark Lawrenson exclaimed.

A corner kick. Leeds United got a corner kick.

Vermaelen, Pique and the others walked into Sunderland’s restricted area. The Sunderlanders were very worried because they were too tall.

At this time, the Sunderland defenders were more focused on Pique, because in the first exchange between the two sides, Pique’s two headers were given to their Sunderland counterparts. The Sunderland defenders were already shadowed by the fact that they were on guard against Pique.

Gary Brin stayed close to Pique, while Neil Collins stayed close to Vermaelen. Apart from these two, Leeds United also had Huntelaar. The Sunderlanders’ defenses were really dwarfed.

At this moment, Albertini raised his right hand and ran forward quickly, hitting the football with a hard kick.

“Albertini played the football!” Exclaimed Mark Lawrence.

Pick suddenly dodged and charged at top speed. Gary Brin and Robinson immediately chased after him. Huntelaar immediately turned around and blocked Neil Collins. Vermaelen was like a dragon returning to the sea.

“Vermaelen! Vermaelen is here! Sunderland is finished!” Mark Lawrenson roared madly.

Damn Sunderlanders, go to hell!

Virginia Mullen, who had retreated backwards, jumped up high like a heavenly deity. All the Sunderlanders screamed in horror. Impossible! How could it be him? How could it be that coward? No!

Mick McCarthy’s face turned pale as if he had been struck by lightning.

Seeing the ball coming, Vermaelen smashed his head into the football. He used all of his strength to complete the header. The football was like a meteor sliding through the night sky. It was extremely fast and full of strength.

“Vermaelen, Mount Taishan is overwhelming!” Mark Lawrenson roared madly.

In front of the goal, Thomas Merry was so shocked that he immediately bounced out and stretched out his right hand desperately. Unfortunately, he didn’t even touch his hair.

“Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal!” Mark Lawrenson bellowed wildly, “Absolute! Virginia Mullen! Virginia Mullen, who has always been mocked and mocked for scoring this game, killed Sunderland! They’ve done their own salvation!”

Virginia Mullen’s blood boiled as he rushed towards the Sunderland fans and made a ferocious gesture to shut up, fiercely retaliating against the Sunderland fans.

Who else was unconvinced by Tama?

Who else?

Holy shit!

Vermaelen despised everything!

The faces of the Sunderland fans were incomparably ugly, and some of them were already in tears.

Absolute Kill!

Virginia Mullen had completed her ultimate kill!
