The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 246

246 The Match Has Gone Far

One to zero!

Blackburn were besieged by Leeds United for more than a dozen minutes, but in the end they were led by a lucky Leeds ball and Blackburn went silent.

The Blackburn fans were extremely helpless and unhappy!

Leeds United fans jumped up in excitement and celebrated wildly. Almost all the players rushed towards Zhong Zheng in front of the goal and surrounded him, as if they were worshipping a god.

The Leeds United fans shouted, their hearts filled with enthusiasm as they shouted Zhong Zheng’s name: “Aldrich! Great Aldrich! Our prince, the magical goalkeeper! Aldrich, we love you, love you!”

All the fans on the scene jumped up excitedly, extremely excited.

Zhong Cheng shook his head repeatedly. He never thought that his first Premier League goal would be like this. Such a miraculous and lucky goal was simply creating a legend!

Zhong Cheng kept applauding on the sidelines and gave his applause to Zhong Zheng.

In the stands, Zhong Zheng’s mother, Amelia George, shouted excitedly, “That’s my son, it’s my son! My son scored, scored!”

Next to him, the two little guys were standing on their seats, leaping excitedly. They waved their fleshy fists and shouted loudly, “Second brother, we love you!”

Zhong Yan screamed excitedly, “Second brother, you are too awesome!”

The old clock immediately turned around and glared fiercely at Zhong Yan. “How many times have I told you not to swear?” He scolded.

The little fellow turned to adorably admit his mistake to the old clock. Then he turned around and shouted excitedly, “Second brother, you’re awesome!”

Zhong Yao, this little devil, also imitated Zhong Yan and shouted loudly, “Second brother, you’re awesome!”

Old Bell and Amelia George turned their heads at the same time and glared fiercely at the two little devils, their eyes burning with rage.

The two little demons, Zhong Yao and Zhong Yan, sensed the killing intent and immediately sat down obediently. They lowered their heads and rubbed their little fingers, pretending to be good babies.

Seeing the two little fellows acting like this, Old Zhong and the others exchanged glances and sighed silently.

Two little human spirits!

–Division Line–

Leeds United led 1-0.

The Blackburn were clearly unconvinced, and they immediately launched a ferocious attack, surrounding Leeds United. Their forward speed was unleashed, frequently using straight shots to hit Leeds United’s ribs, allowing Dikov and Bellamy to charge into the Leeds United defensive line.

It was a big problem for Leeds United, but their defensive line was solid. Moreover, it was extremely oppressive and had a lot of physical resistance. Dikov and Bellamy were also disheartened, and Mark Hughes was in a very heavy mood.

Mark Hughes could tell that Leeds United had a very good defense. The defense was fierce and oppressive, and Blackburn’s players would be squeezed into a small space if they were a little careless, making it difficult for them to hit the ball.

Mark Hughes knew he had underestimated Leeds United, who were young. However, their team did not look like young players at all. Their high-completion tactical execution was even stronger than that of normal mature players.

Those who have coached know that the biggest difference between mature and young players is in tactical execution. Young players are easily influenced by the game, so they forget the tactics set up by the head coach in the game. They play according to his habits and comfortable ways. When they play, they are even more frantic and reckless. There is no concept of tactics in their minds.

Tactics always exist in the minds of mature and adult players. No matter what the situation is, they are earnestly implementing the tactical intent of the head coach.

Mark Hughes didn’t expect Zhong Cheng to train this group of young players so well. Madman Loria was really a good player, so it would be even harder to play this game.

Suddenly, Bellamy brushed past Vermaelen’s defense and shot into the restricted area, causing the Blackburn fans to jump up.

With a slap, Zhong Cheng swiftly threw himself sideways to block the football. Peeker immediately cleared the siege with his big feet, relieving the danger.

Mark Hughes sighed. Damn it, he didn’t even enter!

At this moment, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half and Leeds United led 1-0 at home.

–Division Line–

Fifteen minutes passed quickly and both sides returned to the pitch.

In midfield, there was no substitution between the two sides and both teams continued to play in the starting line-up for the first half of the game. At the beginning of the second half of the game, Leeds United suddenly launched a ferocious attack.

This caught Blackburn off guard.

Mark Hughes did not expect that the leading Leeds United would suddenly launch a ferocious attack.

On the pitch, the three Lizzie United lines suddenly pressed forward, instantly suppressing Blackburn’s players within 30 meters. The Lizzie United players passed back and forth, dispatching Blackburn’s defensive line.

The two wingers quickly pushed toward the centre, squeezing Blackburn’s defensive line and clearing both wings. Evra and Gary Kelly pushed forward, giving Blackburn a strong sense of oppression.

Modric was running madly in the front court. He was on his left, right, front and back. He was playing with Leeds United. Modric didn’t take the ball much, just directly passing the ball, attracting Blackburn’s defenders and tearing at Blackburn’s defense.

On the sidelines, Mark Hughes’s eyes narrowed. He immediately turned to look at Zhong Cheng.

The Lizzie Alliance’s offensive was actually so unique. Their tactical intent of oppression had been carried out to the end. This fellow Zhong Cheng’s strength was truly extraordinary.

It was at this moment that Modric suddenly sent out an exquisite stopper and sent the ball directly into the gap between Matteo and Graco. Darren Bent stabbed into the gap like a needle and was about to face the Blackburn goalkeeper.

All the Blackburn fans on the scene howled in horror, extremely worried.

Blackburn goalkeeper friedel immediately moved sideways and blocked the corner of the goal. Meanwhile, midfielder Gary moved sideways to block Darren Bent’s shot.

Matteo and Graco quickly chased after him and surrounded Darren Bent in this tiny space.

Unexpectedly, Darren Bent knocked the football backwards with his heel, and it quickly slipped out of the gap between Matteo and Graco and rolled into the line of the restricted area.

Ribery followed him quickly. Without stopping the ball, he shot the ball in a pocket. Ribery’s right foot shot out a perfect arc in an instant. The football quickly circled around Gary and flew towards the far post of the goal.

There were no defensive players on the middle line, and the football drew a banana arc and swiftly swung into the goal from the lower corner of the far post.

Friedel had no choice but to watch the football enter the net!

Leeds United scored an unexpected goal against Blackburn at the start of the second half of the game, 2-0.

Leeds United led Blackburn by two goals in the first and second half, and their first Premier League cry left many shocked and speechless.

And the game is not over yet. The second half of the game has only just begun.

On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng raised his fists and waved them excitedly. “Leeds United! Leeds United! Leeds United!” Roared the Leeds United fans in the stands.

The Leeds fans were really happy. They were originally very worried about the Leeds season, but after seeing today’s game, they were instantly filled with confidence and incomparably excited!

–Division Line–

Mark Hughes frowned. They had created a lot of chances to play the game, but there weren’t many that could really threaten Leeds United’s goal. Even if it threatened Leeds United’s goal, it was neutralized by Zhong Zheng and Leeds United’s defenders.

Mark Hughes realised it was a tough game and they had little chance of winning. However, Mark Hughes did not give up and continued to attack.

Dikov and Bellamy were very attentive and serious. Their speed was indeed a very powerful weapon, and it also created a lot of trouble for Leeds United.

On the pitch, Bellamy suddenly broke through with the ball and reached the front of the restricted area. Then, he directly swung his leg and shot. Unfortunately, the football was slightly out of the goal.

Mark Hughes couldn’t help but sigh. Today, Blackburn’s luck wasn’t very good. They didn’t even score the goal. They were really speechless.

Goalball. Zhong Zheng opened the goalball.

Huntelaar leapt up high in the front court, heading in the direction of Darren Bent’s swing, and the ball whistled towards Blackburn’s goal.

Blackburn goalkeeper friedel raised the ball high and raised it to the floor with a single palm. Leeds united had a chance to get a corner kick.

Albertini arrived at the corner and will serve the ball.

Albertini had replaced Modric, and at this time the Leeds United formation had changed to four-four-two, with Albertini partnering with Russ Diarra.

Albertini glanced at Blackburn’s restricted area, then he slowly ran forward, and then he fiercely hit the football. The football flew quickly, drawing a beautiful arc in the air, flying directly to the back of the restricted area.

Matteo, who was behind the restricted area, had reached the football on top of Vermaelen’s head, but Matteo had been of no help this time, and the football had actually flown towards the middle of the restricted area at high speed.

Pique was lying in ambush when he jumped up and smashed down on Blackburn centre-back Gary. With a bang, the football shot towards Blackburn’s goal with a piercing sound.

In front of the goal, Friedel immediately jumped up and punched at the football.

With a bang, Friedel’s fist was swollen with football. However, he didn’t get the right spot. The football flew backwards and upwards. The football flew straight into the goal behind him and hit the header net.

The ball went in, three to zero!

Leeds United also had some luck with this goal.

However, Leeds United scored and Zhong Cheng immediately jumped up. This match was certain to be won.

Mark Hughes also sighed. He knew that the match had gone far.

Sure enough, Leeds United beat Blackburn 3-0 in the end and got off to a good start to the season.
