The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 274

274 This Was the Worst Defeat of All

The snow in the sky is getting heavier and heavier. The weather is getting worse and worse.

Zhong Cheng was really stunned. He knew that Romania’s winter was very cold, and it often snowed. But now it’s only September, and it’s snowing?

My God, are you fucking joking with me?

Zhong Cheng really had an idea that the heavens were joking with him, because when their Leeds United first arrived in Romania, the weather was pretty good, and there was even sunshine.

However, on the second day after coming to Romania, the weather changed drastically and became terrible. At first, it was only rain, then it was sleet, and finally it became light snow. Now, the snow was getting heavier and heavier.

Leeds United had already played like that in the first half. How should Leeds United play when the snow is like this?

Zhong Cheng was extremely worried and in a very bad mood.

The plan really couldn’t keep up with the change. How was the second half going to play? What will happen in the second half?

This kind of weather meant a lot of surprises. Zhong Cheng really didn’t expect anything from the second half.

Zhong Cheng came to the coaching bench with a nervous mood. He sat down quietly and stared fixedly at the stadium.

On the other side, Dinamo Bucharest’s head coach Rednick watched the snow get heavier and heavier. His eyes lit up and his heart was filled with excitement.

Rednick believes that this match is definitely won, at least their chances of winning are much higher.

Rednick quickly arrived at the edge of the field and extended his hand to command the players of Dinamo Bucharest to attack and attack again!

Dinamo Bucharest fans shouted excitedly, even dancing in the snowflakes. They seemed to know that their Dinamo Bucharest team would win this match!

The second half of the game began instantly, and Rednick discovered the changes in Leeds United.

Zhong Cheng had actually used Gary Cahill to replace Darren Bent. The formation had changed to 5-1-3-1. Rednick was shocked. He had never expected Zhong Cheng to be so courageous. Rednick also admired Zhong Cheng. This fellow really knew how to judge the situation!

Rednick couldn’t help but look at Zhong Cheng and remember his appearance.

Rednick knew that Leeds United were not easy to deal with. It would be best if they could kill Leeds United at home and scored a clean sheet in the second leg.

However, Rednick was still a little worried when he saw Leeds United set up the Iron Barrel Formation.

It was at this moment that Dinamo Bucharest’s attack arrived on the pitch. It was Florentine Peter on the wing, who continued to spike after receiving the ball and then tried to play the same trick again, swinging it past Evra. However, Evra had expected that the moment the opponent smashed the ball, he would directly fall to the ground and shovel the football out of the sidelines.

Florentine Peter immediately turned to look at Evra and did not say anything.

Very quickly, Dinamo Bucharest attacked again, this time on the left. The left wing striker crossed and the ball flew into the Leeds United box.

Such a high-altitude ball was hard for Leeds United’s defender, Gary Cahill jumped high and headed the ball out of the box.

Nigel Dejon cleared the area with a big kick. He didn’t know that the football was flying directly above Huntelaar’s head. Huntelaar jumped high and rubbed his head against the ball. Ribery stepped forward and chased after the football. The fans at Dinamo Bucharest were shocked.

Unfortunately, Ribery’s violent shot directly hit the goal pillar and bounced off the bottom line!

Zhong Cheng was that regret. If this goal was scored, there would be nothing to say in this match. Unfortunately, Leeds United’s luck wasn’t very good. They didn’t even score a single goal.

Zhong Cheng clasped his head with both hands, feeling extremely depressed!

Their Leeds United team was only a small distance away from victory. Unfortunately, their luck was not good!

On the other side, Rednick almost fainted from the shock. The ball was too dangerous. He was almost stolen by Leeds United. Fortunately, his heart was not bad. Otherwise, he would have had a heart attack by now.

Rednick was furious and immediately came to the side. He furiously cursed Dinamo’s players in Bucharest, telling them to pay attention to Leeds United’s counter-attack and not let it go easy.

The Dinamo Bucharest fans were also frightened to the point of sweat. It was really too dangerous just now. They were almost stolen a goal by the Leeds United. This Leeds United was really despicable, despicable to the point of lawlessness.

The Dinamo players in Bucharest were furious as they frantically attacked the Leeds United goal like a tidal wave.

At this time, the conditions on the pitch were getting worse and worse. The Leeds United players were really not used to it, while the Dinamo players in Bucharest were very used to it, and it was like a fish in water. The Leeds United defence started to have problems.

It was at this moment that Yanis Ziku and Claudio Nikurezku, who were in the middle, crossed Leeds United’s Nigel Dejon and Iveca Olitsch two-on-one, and Claudio Nikurezku, who was in the middle, quickly passed the ball to Florentine Peter, who was in front of the wing.

Evra of Leeds United turned around in time and was fired by Florentine Peter from behind to catch up with the football. Evra didn’t even have time to reach out and pull someone, and her feet were very slippery, so Evra couldn’t catch up at all.

Evra would have taught Florentine Peter every minute if it had been at his usual home, or at Leeds United, but it was at Dinamo in Bucharest today, in the snow, and Evra could only knock her teeth out and swallow them in her stomach.

After Evra, Florentin Peter understands how to cut with the ball. Seeing Vermaelen rush up. Florentine Peter slammed into the middle of the line and swiftly moved the football mattress to the bottom line with his right foot, causing Vermaelen to slow down by half a beat.

Florentine Peter used the advantage of the field to quickly get rid of Vermaelen’s defense and swept the football towards the goal with a low cross.

In front of the goal, Claudio Nicolescu and Pique quickly thrust forward, sliding down and shoveling towards the rolling football.

With a bang, Claudio Nicolescu scooped up the ball bit by bit, shovelling it towards Leeds United’s goal.

The ball was too fast and Zhong Zheng’s fingertips touched the football. But it didn’t stop the ball from rolling into Leeds United’s goal.

The home team, Dinamo Bucharest, overtook them 2-1.

The entire scene was boiling with excitement. All the Dinamo Bucharest fans were singing and dancing excitedly. They were all very excited and excited.

Seeing this, Zhong Cheng shook his head helplessly. Sure enough, it was not a good thing!

The situation became so bad that Leeds United’s players were at a disadvantage. Normally, neither Evra on the wing nor Vermaelen and Pique in the centre would have allowed the Dinamo Bucharest to succeed.

It’s bad. It’s bad on this damn field!

Zhong Cheng raised his head and sighed. Looks like Leeds United really didn’t have the luck to win today. They even lost.

At this time, Zhong Cheng changed players again. He used Alexander Song to replace Ivica Olich in the front court. The formation had changed to 5-2-2-1, or 5-4-1. However, the players on the two wings were the first to take the exam. They were two wingers, not midfielders.

Zhong Cheng’s words clearly meant that the man was still strengthening his defense. Even if he was behind Zhong Cheng, he was still strengthening his defense.

Many media reporters couldn’t understand. Zhong Cheng was really too scary. He didn’t have the slightest bit of the momentum and dominance of an English team. He was actually so scared in front of a Romanian team. This was simply embarrassing for English football.

However, the assistant coaches of Leeds United frowned. They felt that this match was really dangerous. Zhong Cheng was right to make such a change, incomparably right.

The game went on, and Dinamo Bucharest did not slow down their offense. They attacked crazily and surrounded Leeds United.

The ball was cut off by Alexander Song after the midfield rolled back and forth. He immediately passed the ball and found Huntelaar in front of him. Huntelaar stopped the ball in his chest and immediately passed the ball back to the side. He quickly turned around and inserted the ball in front of him.

Ribery, who was on the side, kept the ball straight through Dinamo Bucharest’s defensive line. Huntelaar was successful in countering offside and went to the meeting alone.

Unfortunately, the referee and linesman punished offside, but the ball was not offside. This was a misjudgment. This made Huntelaar very angry. He could feel that he could break the goal shortage, but the chance was blown away by the referee. He was very angry and got a yellow card from the referee.

If Ribery hadn’t pulled him back, Huntelaar would have applied for a red card on his own.

On this side, Leeds United had just been misjudged, and there was another ferocious attack from Dinamo Bucharest. This time around, Dinamo Bucharest broke through the Leeds United winger’s defensive line and the winger went through.

Gary Cahill slipped in the middle and the ball was smashed into Leeds United’s goal by Claudio Nicolescu behind him. Zhong Zheng reacted quickly, but the angle was too diabolical, and the football flew into Leeds United’s goal.

Three to one, Dinamo Bucharest widened the score.

Looking at this match, Zhong Cheng shook his head. This match was really over. It was over.

Ten minutes later, the Leeds players were once again at a disadvantage on the pitch!

Football was scored by Dinamo Bucharest’s players into the Leeds United box when Yannis Zichu in the middle caught the ball and spiked, trying to dodge the defensive Gary Cahill. Gary Cahill was shocked and immediately reached out to stop the car. However, he slipped and fell down, bringing down Yannis Ziku.

The referee handed down a penalty without hesitation. Yannis Ziku personally punished and was saved by Zhong Zheng. But he followed up quickly, shooting the ball into Leeds United’s goal.

Four to one, the Dinamo Bucharest extended their lead to three goals.

Zhong Cheng looked up and sighed. No wonder he had an ominous premonition when he entered the restricted area in the second half of the match. So it was like this.

And Leeds United’s misfortune is not over yet, just before the end of the game.

Dinamo Bucharest striker Claudio Nicolescu was knocked over by Gary Cahill’s teacup at the front of the box. Gary Cahill took the second yellow card, turned yellow and red, and was sent out.

Dinamo Bucharest scored a free-kick in the front court, and Florentin Peter scored a high-quality free-kick that hit Leeds United player Ville Mullen in the penalty area. The ball changed directions and flew straight into Leeds United’s goal.

Dinamo Bucharest beat United 5-1 at home.

The end of this match had killed Leeds United’s hopes of advancing to the UEFA Cup group stage, and Zhong Cheng had also encountered the most tragic defeat!
