“Old Trafford have won two goals and Leeds United are close to leading Chelsea!” -Yorkshire Post

“Madman Loria has spoken bluntly about the problems of the FA and the need to rectify them!” -The Sun
At this time, countless media outlets were reporting on Leeds United’s victory over Manchester United on the road, but more media outlets were not focusing on the match, but on Zhong Cheng’s comments after the match.
Many media outlets claimed that Zhong Cheng was full of resentment towards the FA, claiming that the referees sent by the FA were very serious problems, claiming that the FA’s referees association was a place to hide the dirt, and even criticizing the FA and the referees association for colluding!
Many media outlets had aimed Zhong Cheng’s cannon at him. Obviously, this was a trap for Zhong Cheng, causing him to get deeper and deeper in this grudge!
The media in the outside world could really do anything. Zhong Cheng had never said a lot of things, but they had really done it. They all patted their chests and claimed that Zhong Cheng had said those words.
It was clear that there was a pair of invisible hands controlling everything behind this, and of course, there were also many people who contributed to it. Who told Zhong Cheng that he usually provoked too many opponents? There was nothing they could do. Why wouldn’t they come out and make a fool of themselves with such a good opportunity?
Especially Chelsea, who were being chased by Leeds United so tightly that they didn’t even have a chance to breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, they naturally hoped that Leeds United would be in trouble, so that they would have a chance to open up the gap.
There were also many enemies of Zhong Cheng, such as Kevin Blackwell, Liverpool, Arsenal, and so on. Naturally, they would not let Zhong Cheng get along well. There was even Kramer. This fellow also hoped that Zhong Cheng would have a hard time. With such an opportunity, they naturally had to get along well.
Now these reports were really flying over like snowflakes, which naturally attracted the attention of the FA. The FA always set up an investigation team to investigate this matter.
This matter is very important, and Zhong Cheng has a criminal record. The FA attaches more importance to this matter. If there is such a thing, Zhong Cheng will be heavily punished. Who would call Zhong Cheng a fellow who refuses to change?
However, Zhong Cheng was not afraid of the shadow slanting. He would not deny that he had done some things. He would not admit that he had not done some things. He would not admit that some people had insisted on placing themselves on his head.
Zhong Cheng felt that the investigation by the FA was very necessary. He absolutely could not give those Xiu Xiaoxiao a chance.
Mr Chung was very co-operative with these FA officials in their investigations, and FA officials also felt that there must be some discrepancies in this matter. They’re seriously investigating.
Zhong Cheng was currently preparing for other matches, and Leeds United still had a lot more to do.
Next up is the second leg of the UEFA Cup, where Leeds United travel to face Bucharest Stars. This is the third time this season to go to Bucharest, before they are about to finish the final three of Bucharest.
Leeds United won the first leg of the game. They had to score at least three goals on Bucharest before they had a chance to compete with Leeds United. As long as nothing unexpected happened to Leeds United, Leeds United would definitely win this game. There would be no surprises for them to advance to the next round.
Zhong Cheng flew directly to Bucharest with the Leeds United players. The weather there was still cold, even in England. After all, it was February.
It was said that it had just snowed in Bucharest, and the weather was exceptionally cold now.
Looks like this terrible away conditions will still have a great impact on Leeds United. The Bucharest Stars still feel that they are not without opportunities. At least they have the right timing and location. Although they were lagging behind a bit before, it’s not like they don’t have a chance.
Thus, at this time, the Bucharest Stars were cheering themselves on. They would definitely turn the tables in this match and create miracles.
At this time, Zhong Cheng was still worried, worried about the weather in Bucharest.
However, Zhong Cheng also believed that no matter how bad the weather was, they would still be able to defeat the Bucharest Stars and obtain a place in the top 16.
After all, in the first round, they were ahead by a large margin. Moreover, there was still a hungry tiger in their formation. This was Huntelaar. It had been a long time since he had played football and ate meat. This had almost choked him to death. Now that he had the chance, he naturally had to go forward ferociously and eat a good meal of meat.
With Huntelaar here, Zhong Cheng was full of confidence in this match.
At this time, Zhong Cheng understood that the FA’s suspension of Huntelaar had solved a difficult problem for him. This way Huntelaar can concentrate on playing in the UEFA Cup, and the league is handed over to Crespo, who is in good shape now, so that both of them have a game to play and can put in all their effort, which is a good thing for Leeds United to lead.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng still feels that the FA is very good and has helped him solve a difficult problem.
Huntelaar was different now. This match would definitely be turned upside down by Huntelaar. It was impossible for the Bucharest Stars to stir up any kind of fanfare in this match.
As expected, Huntelaar poured cold water on the Bucharest Stars right at the start of the match.
This fellow extinguished the fire of hope that the Bucharest Stars had risen up with great difficulty. Huntelaar really is. You should give him some hope. That’s good. Eight minutes into the game, Huntelaar, the beast, easily broke through Bucharest’s goal.
Huntelaar broke through the door with a low kick from the restricted area, so there was no difficulty.
To be honest, the weather had a great impact on the Leeds, but it was not a problem for Huntelaar, who was holding back his anger.
In the 26th minute of the first half, Huntelaar received Modric’s pass and shot straight through the goal of the Stars without Gareth.
The Modric is also a player who has been holding back fire for a while now and has been recovering from his injuries. However, his chances of appearing in the game were still limited, because the main force was firmly occupied by Gourcuff. He only had the role of a substitute.
Today was a hard day for him to start, so he naturally had to perform well and send out two assists.
Assistance alone was not enough. Modric himself wanted to score. Indeed, in the 32nd minute of the first half of the game, Modric made a violent long-range shot from the front of the restricted area. The football went into the net 3-0.
Come on, this game is over.
The Bucharest Stars don’t have any hopes anymore. The game is over here.
However, the Leeds United did not stop. It could be said that Huntelaar and Modric did not stop. Before the end of the first half of the game, the two of them played two games in a row, and they played a good match. Modric knocked the ball on his heel and scored a low shot from Huntelaar’s restricted area.
Huntelaar scored a hat-trick, and Modric scored an assisting hat-trick, both of which dazzled the Bucharest Stars.
In the second half of the match, Zhong Cheng hurriedly replaced the two of them, giving the Bucharest Stars some face. Leave something here today, and we’ll see each other in the future!
However, Nicklas Bendtner and Olich, who had been replaced, did not understand Zhong Cheng’s intentions. In the first 20 minutes of the second half, Nicklas Bendtner and Olich scored one goal each, directly changing the score to six to zero.
The Bucharest astronauts were on the verge of tears, and the fans at home only picked up and left in disappointment. At this time. Zhong Cheng waved his hand to signal the Leeds United players to take it easy. Only then did the Leeds United understand Zhong Cheng’s intentions. They slowed down the pace of the attack.
However, Planet Bucharest was stuffed with cold water. At the end of the match, they accidentally sent the football into their own goal. This match, they had also completed the goal task.
Leeds United beat Bucharest 7-0 on the road. This was beyond many people’s expectations. After all, this was a road trip, and the weather was so bad.
The competition ended just like that. Zhong Cheng directly left in disappointment. He didn’t want to create any problems for the Bucharest Stars. If he left like this, he would really like to see them in the future.
The Bucharest Stars will definitely say, “Who would want to see you again, you bunch of butchers!”
Alright, the overall score was 10-0. Leeds United had completely defeated the Bucharest Stars and obtained a spot to advance to the last 16. Zhong Cheng was very happy.
Of course, Huntelaar and Modric are very unhappy. They haven’t played happily yet. They can now feel that their form is very good, if they continue to play, they can get more goals.
However, at this moment, Zhong Cheng had actually changed them off the field. This was indeed a bit inappropriate.
Especially Huntelaar, who was banned from the tournament, had a chance to play. What do you mean you won’t let me finish?
To tell you the truth, Zhong Cheng really doesn’t have any meaning. You’re too ruthless. You’ve made the people of Bucharest want to kill you. If you stay on top, are you looking for death?
After beating Star Bucharest, Leeds United returned to England to face Everton at home this weekend under Zhong Cheng’s good friend Moyes. Everton’s results this season weren’t very good, but Moyes’s position was still very stable.
Everton are very confident in Moyes and are happy to keep him as Ferguson did at Manchester United.
Although his good friend was in a difficult situation, Zhong Cheng did not plan to let Moyes do it because he still needed points. They had to catch up with the crazy Chelsea team.
This match was Leeds United’s home court, and Zhong Cheng was suspended by the FA. The FA had shown great mercy by suspending this match. This caused many people to be dissatisfied. Many people claimed that Zhong Cheng should be suspended for six matches.
After the FA investigation, they did not hit him when he was down. This is beyond the expectations of many people.
Especially the Chelsea fans, they expressed their strong dissatisfaction, why Mourinho was suspended for so long, and Madman Loria was suspended for only one match, they are not convinced!
There was nothing he could do if he was unconvinced, but this was the truth!
Zhong Cheng watched this match from the stands. Leeds United performed very well, especially Crespo, who scored one goal each in the first half and the second half to help the team level the score.
In the final game, Leeds United were tied by Everton at home. Leeds United slowed down the ambiguous pace of the game, and in the end, Leeds United lost two crucial points in the game, which made Chelsea so happy that they almost shed tears.
