616 This Was a Precursor to the Collapse of the Entire Line
Leeds United were the first team to make it into the 2006-2007 FA Cup quarter-finals as they drew 2-2 at Middlesbrough on the same day as Leeds United.
Unlike the FA Cup, there were no overtime or penalties in the first clash. If we draw, we’ll have to swap places and replay. If the replay continued to draw, it would be overtime and penalties would be exchanged.
Therefore, whether Middlesbrough or Manchester United will make it into the final four is still uncertain, and it will depend on the result of the makeup match in a week’s time.
On the second day after the Leeds United game, the results of the other two eighth elimination matches came out. Blackburn defeated Manchester City 2-0 at home and made it into the final four. In another game, Chelsea drew 3-3 at home to Tottenham Hotspur, and the two teams will be replayed.
So only Leeds United and Blackburn are in the top four of this season’s FA Cup and the remaining two teams will be born in a week.
Seeing this result, Zhong Cheng naturally hoped that the team would be able to face Blackburn in the semi-final. After all, the other teams were not easy to deal with.
Now Leeds United are considering the 30th Premier League game of the season, and next season the Premier League is really coming to a close and is very close to the end of the season.
Coincidentally, in the 30th Premier League match, Leeds United’s opponent was Blackburn, and Leeds United’s opponent was Blackburn away.
Could this be a sign that Leeds United will face Blackburn in the semi-final of the FA Cup? If that was the case, then it would be much better.
The Leeds United international is back for this game, but they are playing a game of fire and are leaving to report back to the national team. There have been so many international matches lately that they will not return to the club until the end of the month to play in the league.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng was very considerate to the players of Leeds United in this round of the league. He did not send out all of his main players and allowed some of the more exhausted countries to rest. The fringe international players of the national team were given the chance to start.
Also in this match, the young Azar once again made his debut.
This made the young players of Leeds United envious. Azar was truly too lucky to be valued so highly by Zhong Cheng. They were filled with envy and anger. Especially De Bruyne. At this moment, he was extremely unhappy. Why was he born a few months later than Azar? If he had been born a little earlier, perhaps it would be him, De Bruyne, who had obtained a huge chance now.
De Bruyne was really jealous because he didn’t have the chance to sit on the bench for Leeds United today. He stayed in front of Leeds United to watch the game on TV. Looking at Azar who started, his face was full of envy.
In this game, Leeds United took the defensive counterattack tactic.
The home team Blackburn did not rashly attack, so this game was very dull, it was clear that Blackburn was coming for a point.
Unfortunately, however, Blackburn did not grasp the opportunity.
In the end, Leeds United won the game with a kick from Edison Cavani. To be honest, Leeds United didn’t have many chances in this game, but they won the game. Edison Cavani did a great job in this game, bringing Leeds United three points.
Leeds United scored three points, but Manchester United and Chelsea also won. Leeds United did not close the gap with Manchester United. However, Arsenal lost this round, Liverpool drew and Sheffield took advantage of Wednesday.
Ranked first in the league was still Manchester United, with 75 points. The second was Leeds United, with 71 points, the third was Chelsea, with 67 points, the fourth was Sheffield Wednesday, with 58 points, the fifth was Arsenal, with 57 points, and the sixth was Liverpool, with 51 points.
As such, Manchester United remain a mountain of pressure on Leeds United.
There were still eight rounds left in the league. It might seem easy to chase four points in eight rounds, but it was actually very simple. If Manchester United continue to be so strong, Leeds United will have no chance of overtaking Manchester United to win the Premier League.
Therefore, Leeds United fans were very worried and unhappy at this time. They prayed in their hearts that something unexpected would happen to Manchester United, giving them a chance to surpass Manchester United and complete the Leeds United Premier League championship mission.
However, Zhong Cheng knew that this task was extremely difficult, and it was very likely that he would not be able to complete it this season.
It would be unrealistic to expect Manchester United to make a big mistake now.
Zhong Cheng also knew that they had made a lot of mistakes ahead of the league this season. They even had a chance to surpass Manchester United. Unfortunately, they did not grasp the chance. It was too difficult for them to surpass Manchester United this time.
After this round, the Leeds United international left the club again.
Fortunately, Leeds United did not play much during this period of time. However, in order to maintain the team’s condition, Zhong Cheng still arranged a friendly match.
Of course, the opponents in this friendly match are not very strong, they are from the League Two teams.
In this match, Zhong Cheng gave Azar and De Bruyne a chance. The two of them started together, which shocked the Leeds United fans. The Leeds United fans could tell that Zhong Cheng definitely wanted to reuse the two of them next season, especially Azar. Otherwise, Zhong Cheng would not have given them so many chances.
However, the strength of these two people was indeed not bad. What they lacked right now was experience and physical training. Leeds United fans are also very fond of these two people, both hope that they can become talents, Leeds United’s future pillars and pillars.
De Bruyne was very happy this game. He did not have to sit on the bench or watch TV to envy Azar anymore. He also started today.
De Bruyne was very excited. His body was now filled with strength, ready to erupt in this match.
After the start of the game, Leeds United took the initiative. After all, they were the top two teams in the Premier League, and their opponents were indeed teams in the Premier League. The two teams were still far from each other.
Not long after the game started, Young De Bruyne showed his talent by delivering a fantastic high-speed straight shot, which was very difficult to pass because it was very, very difficult to spot opportunities at high speeds and accurately deliver a voluminous and well-angled straight shot. But De Bruyne did a good job this time, passing the football directly to Edison Cavani.
Edison Cavani got the football very comfortably. He scored the opponent’s goal with a single knife and easily sent the football into the opponent’s goal. It was 1: 0.
The Leeds United fans at the scene were very excited. This fellow De Bruyne was indeed very powerful. Even if he came to the first team, he still showed his performance in the youth team. He was really a genius.
De Bruyne himself was very excited and excited. He did not expect that he would perform so well. He was scared by himself.
At this moment, the match had just begun, but De Bruyne’s performance wasn’t as stunning as this one. However, his performance on the pitch was very good. Although there were some problems with his youth, the advantages were always greater than the disadvantages.
Azar, like De Bruyne, played only half the game, so the points were changed, but both were happy. Azar also sent out an assist today. Although the assist was not as good as De Bruyne’s, the Leeds United fans were still very happy.
The two rookies’ performances were truly amazing. The Leeds United fans applauded in succession. They all hoped to see the two of them grow up quickly. They were filled with anticipation for the two of them.
In this match, Leeds United naturally played very easily, and their opponents weren’t strong enough. There was no dirty fourth division action, and the Leeds United players were unharmed.
Edison Cavani and Carlos Tevez scored twice before Gary Cahill and Albertini scored each other’s goals in a 6-0 friendly win at Leeds United.
Yes, Carlos Tevez was not selected for the Argentine national team this time. He stayed. But his recent performance at Leeds United has been impressive and has reportedly attracted the attention of many wealthy clubs because it is known that Leeds United are on loan to Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano.
A number of clubs are now looking to bring in the pair, including Manchester United and Liverpool.
Right now, these two teams attacked these two very ferociously. If they wanted to take them down, Zhong Cheng naturally wouldn’t give them a chance.
The result of the other two rematches of the FA Cup came out when Leeds United beat Middlesbrough 1-0 at home and made it into the quarter-finals of this season’s FA Cup. Tottenham Hotspur lost 2-1 at home to Chelsea, who made it into the FA Cup quarter-finals of the season.
As a result, Leeds United, Blackburn, Manchester United and Chelsea have made it into the top four of the FA Cup this season.
Sure enough, Blackburn was the easiest of the four teams to deal with. The other three teams all wanted to win the Blackburn team. Blackburn became the weak chicken in everyone’s eyes, and they all wanted to pick him. Of course, Zhong Cheng also thought the same way. Of course, he had to face the weaker players, so that they could fully devote themselves to the league.
Next up was the draw for the semi-final of the FA Cup. Sure enough, Zhong Cheng’s luck had never been that good. They did not draw for Blackburn. They drew for Chelsea, the Blues. All of their luck was taken away by brute force.
Yes, Manchester United got the weak chicken Blackburn.
Zhong Cheng sighed. In the league, he had to fight Manchester United. In the FA Cup, he had to fight Chelsea. In the Champions League, he had to fight Liverpool. Every game at Leeds United was very difficult. Zhong Cheng’s luck was gone.
In the eyes of the reporters, this was the precursor to the collapse of the entire Leeds United team!
Yes, at this time, English media reporters reported the news. They were not optimistic about Leeds United, claiming that the Leeds United team was finished this season. Leeds’ defeat meant Zhong Cheng’s overestimation and greed.
