161 Super Kevin Is Amazing
Brighton Football Club was founded in 1901 and started playing low-level football. From 1979 to 1983, their club was in the top league in England. In 1983, they reached the final of the FA Cup but lost 4-0 to Manchester United and they were relegated that season.

After the demotion, Brighton Club did not advance to the English Premier League again. After entering the millennium, Brighton was promoted to the third level in a row and advanced to the second level. But the season they advanced to the second division, they were quickly relegated.

Just downgraded this season, last season, They finished fourth in the third division and qualified for the levelling-up playoffs. They drew 3-3 in the first round of the playoffs and beat Sven Goran 4-3 in the penalty shootout. In the second round of the playoffs, they narrowly defeated Bristol City 1-0 and successfully levelled up to the second division of England.

This season, the second division has officially been renamed the Champions League, so they are promoted to the Champions League.

Brighton Football Team is really not strong, they are now ranked in the middle and lower reaches of the Champions League, is a relegation team.

However, it was because of Kevin Blackwell’s arrival that the team’s recent performance was very good. They were able to escape from the relegation zone, but they were still not completely out of the danger of relegation. Therefore, in the remaining league, Brighton’s only mission was to fight for relegation.

Brighton is a famous lift, such a team should be difficult to threaten Leeds United.

But the harder the relegation team gets at this point, and most importantly, Brighton’s head coach is Kevin Blackwell.

A lot of people have faith in Kevin Blackwell.

On this second day on February 22, 2005, Leeds United met Brighton at home.

There were a lot of people coming to Leeds United’s stadium today. The Leeds fans were waving their flags and scarves to cheer for the team. Their voices were incomparably loud.

The game began with cheers from Leeds United fans.

At the beginning of the match, Leeds United continued to play according to their own tactics, defending and counterattacking!

Zhong Cheng stood on the sidelines with his hands crossed over his chest, quietly looking at the field. Zhong Cheng knew very well that Kevin Blackwell was definitely going to snatch this match because Kevin Blackwell wanted to prove himself.

As expected, Brighton launched a ferocious attack like Leeds United at the start of the match.

Not to mention, Kevin Blackwell really did manage the team. This Brighton team is already very different from the previous Brighton team. They are more organized in offense, but of course, they are more like long-distance players.

Kevin Blackwell’s tactics were somewhat similar to the tactics used by Leeds United before. That was, when they played football, their movements were very big and barbaric. They were very aggressive and swift in their pursuit. After stealing the ball, they would usually directly move forward with big feet and look for the center in front of them.

Then, he would use the barbaric attack of the center, or play the ball, to complete the attack.

Many Leeds United fans in the stands were familiar with this tactic, as if they had seen the Leeds United team many years ago.

Of course, Brighton’s strength couldn’t be compared to the Leeds United from many years ago!

On the stands, the Brighton fans cheered for the Brighton team: “Seagulls, soar in the most beautiful sky! Seagulls, victory beckons to us! Seagulls, charge forward, welcome the most ferocious storm, embrace the most beautiful rainbow!”

Brighton is located on the southeastern coast of England at Brighton Hough, where seagulls are typical. And the emblem of the Brighton Club has a seagull on it, so “Seagull” is the nickname of the Brighton team.

Brighton defensive midfielder Simon Roger gave the ball a big kick to forward center Gary Hart amid cheers from Brighton fans.

Gary Hart saw the ball, jumped up high, stopped the ball in his chest, and controlled the football.

Reaching out, Vermaelen defended very tightly. Gary Hart used his muscular body to push back, then passed the football horizontally and rolled towards No. 7 striker Leon Knight, who was slanted forward.

Leon Knight Zhong Cheng still had some impressions of this fellow. This fellow’s career wasn’t brilliant, and the highlight of his career was in Brighton. Zhong has some impression of him because he has played for 15 football clubs in five countries: England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Greece.

He came from the Chelsea Academy, but has been on loan for many years and has not played for the Chelsea first team. After Russian tycoon Abramovich came to Chelsea, he started his gold-medal offensive and recruited a lot of strong players. Young players like him have no way out. So, the season Abramovich joined Chelsea, he joined Brighton on loan and was bought out by Brighton.

Leon Knight was not tall, only 166cm tall, but his speed was very fast. He was a speed-type striker and coincidentally matched Gary Hart, a power center, one tall and one fast.

Many teams in England now have this kind of attacking style, and Brighton is no exception.

Leon Knight, a former England U19 and U20 player, is only 22, but Kevin Blackwell trusts him. He has scored five goals under Kevin Blackwell’s guidance and is very efficient.

Now Leon Knight rushed up and gently sent the ball forward like a loach past Peak.

Single blade, Leon Knight, single blade face to face with Zhong Zheng!

Luckily, Zhong Zheng reacted quickly and attacked in time, blocking Leon Knight’s shooting angle. Leon Knight shot down forcefully, wanting to put on a crotch.

Although Zhong Zheng’s figure was very tall and large, his ability to land was also very outstanding, and his speed was very fast. He stretched out his leg and blocked the football from the bottom line!

Brighton’s attack shone brightly!

The Brighton fans from afar applauded and cheered wildly to give the Leeds United a blow.

–Division Line–

In the press gallery, Gary Arnold Hisith kept applauding. Brighton did not disappoint him, and Kevin Blackwell did not disappoint him. If the Leeds United hadn’t been lucky, the goal would have been scored!

Gary Arnold Hisith looked at Zhong Cheng’s back and smiled contemptuously, “Madman Loria, how are you going to die this time?”

If Zhong Cheng really lost to Kevin Blackwell in this match, then these media reporters and fans would have something to say after the match. All sorts of sarcasm and humiliation, all sorts of abuse and ridicule, and even more derogatory ridicule would surge towards Zhong Cheng.

Zhong Cheng’s notoriety of jealousy, arbitrariness and so on would reverberate throughout the entire British continent.

And Kevin Blackwell will be held onto the altar and become the Damocles Sword hanging above Zhong Cheng’s head!

No wonder Gary Arnold Hisith was so happy and excited.

Kelly Fox, who was not far away, frowned slightly. She was faintly worried about Zhong Cheng and Leeds United. At this moment, she really did not want to see Leeds United in danger. Now that it was time for the League to shut down, Leeds United could no longer face any more crises.

“Roja, you must hold on! For Leeds United!” Kelly Fox prayed in her heart for Zhong Cheng and Leeds United.

–Division Line–

On the grandstand, a young man from the East frowned slightly, and his heart tightened.

To be honest, this is his first time appearing in the stands of a professional football game in England. He has never been a football fan.

However, he was sitting in the stands today.

Moreover, at this moment, his heart was also affected by this match. Since when did he actually care about the situation of Leeds United?

He couldn’t even figure it out!

Beside this young man from the east sat a blonde beauty dressed in fashionable clothes. Even if she was sitting, it would be difficult to conceal the beauty’s proud figure and perfect figure. More importantly, she was very temperamental. She looked like a super beauty at a glance.

However, at this moment, this beautiful woman was wearing rosy red sunglasses, which almost covered half of her handsome face, making it impossible to see what she looked like.

“How is it? Football matches are much more interesting than your favorite photography!” The blonde beauty’s ethereal voice rang out.

The young man from the east was slightly stunned, then he chuckled and said, “Each has his own merits, each has his own merits!”

–Division Line–

A corner kick. Brighton got a corner kick on the court!

Brighton high center Gary Hart poured into Leeds United’s box, while Leon Knight turned around and set up an ambush outside the box. In this way, Leeds United had to go out alone to follow Leon Knight.

Brighton’s tall centre-backs Guy Bates and Adam Wilgo are both in the Leeds United box. Guy Barthes, 34, is 191cm tall, and Adam Wilgo, 22, is 188cm tall. Both are tall, old and young, experienced and energetic.

Adam Wilgo was promoted by Kevin Blackwell and has steadied himself at centre-back.

At this moment, Brighton midfielder Charlie Ottawa curved the ball into the Leeds box. Adam Wilgo and Gary Hart dashed away to take the Leeds defenders away. Then Guy Bates jumped high in the middle and smashed his head into the ball.

“Guy Bates header!” The BBC’s commentator, Mark Lawrence, cried out in shock.

With a bang, the ball was extremely fast, just like a bolt of lightning.

The Brighton fans rubbed against each other, leaned forward, stretched their necks, and stared fixedly at the flying football. Their hearts were filled with incomparable excitement and passion.

With a slap, Zhong Zheng flew sideways, like a soaring Kun Peng blocking the sky and covering the sun, with one palm, he held the football out of the bottom line.

“Beautiful! Beautiful save. Aldrich’s save was extremely relaxed. It looked like he was dancing. It was perfect!” Mark Lawrenson cheered excitedly.

Leeds United fans gave Zhong Zheng another thunderous round of applause and countless people were shouting his name.

The young Oriental man who was sitting in the crowd nodded his head repeatedly and said, “Well, the Chinese who guarded the door is very powerful. I think if he went to play basketball, he would definitely be a powerful guy!”

The blonde beauty was slightly stunned, her eyes staring blankly at the young man from the east. Then, with a puchi sound, she couldn’t help but laugh, causing waves to surge!
