The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 632
632 Sure Enough, He Wasn’t His Own Son!
The game ended with Leeds United losing 2-3 to Liverpool in the final eight. Not in the Champions League quarter-finals this season.
Although, being eliminated was a very uncomfortable thing to do. However, Leeds United fans are happy that Zhong Cheng made it into the top eight on his first European Champions League trip. Moreover, they originally had a chance to enter the top four, but unfortunately, they were destroyed by the referee.
The Leeds fans are very satisfied with Zhong Cheng’s and Leeds United’s results. We have only come here this season, so next season we will come again and fight for the Champions League.
The Leeds United fans looked away, but Zhong Cheng did not.
Zhong Cheng was very angry right now. He directly asked his assistant to prepare the materials. He wanted to prepare an appeal. This match had been destroyed by the damned referee. He was very dissatisfied with the result.
Zhong Cheng lodged an appeal with UEFA, claiming that the match was unfair and unfair. There were people who did not want their Leeds team to win. Zhong Cheng also lodged a complaint against the chief referee of the match. This chief referee was utterly nonsense in this match, killing Leeds United’s golden goal.
“This match was ruined by the referee. If he didn’t kill this goal, we, Leeds United, would have won this time. We, Leeds United, would have advanced to the top four,” Zhong Cheng said to reporters.
“I know that even if we appeal, we will not be able to change the result. UEFA will not let us replay. We will definitely be eliminated. But I just can’t swallow this. The victory of this match belongs to us, but some people used despicable means to steal this victory. The heavens are not fair!” Zhong Cheng said.
Zhong Chengzhen was so angry that he said such words.
The reporters at the scene sucked in a breath of cold air. Zhong Chengzhen was crazy. To actually dare to say such words, this fellow would definitely be punished severely by UEFA. Wasn’t Zhong Cheng saying that UEFA was unfair?
This is discrediting UEFA, it is questioning the work of the referees.
Zhong Cheng didn’t care about this. He had prepared the information and filed a lawsuit against the referee of this match to seek justice.
At this moment, The Champions League quarter-finals of the season have all been born, with AC Milan beating Bayern Munich 4-2, Manchester United beating Roma 8-3, Liverpool beating Leeds 3-2 and Chelsea beating Valencia 3-2 in the final four.
The teams that make it to the top four are AC Milan, Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea.
Three of the top four teams in the Champions League this season are from the Premier League. The Premier League is really too powerful, too fierce and too hot. No wonder, at this time, the British media are claiming that the Premier League is the world’s number one league.
English media also claimed that if not for the bad luck of the quarter-final draw, all four Champions League finals this season would have come from the Premier League, and Leeds United are capable of advancing to the top four of the Champions League this season.
At this time, the media in England were very proud, claiming that this season’s Champions League title already belonged to the Premier League.
At this time, the Champions League quarter-finals of the season have also come out, AC Milan against Manchester United and Liverpool against Chelsea.
Of course, all of this had nothing to do with Zhong Cheng, who was currently waiting for UEFA’s arbitration!
–Division Line–
Zhong Cheng returned to Leeds to prepare for the weekend’s game against Chelsea.
During this period of time, Leeds United’s calendar was really devilish, continuously playing against Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea. This was really a very dangerous thing for Leeds United. If they were a little careless, they would be doomed.
However, now in the Premier League, Leeds United still see hope.
In the last Premier League, the 32nd round, Leeds United beat Arsenal 1-0 and scored three points. In that round, Manchester United dropped the ball. They lost 2-1 to Portsmouth away and did not continue their winning frenzy, ushering in their fourth defeat of the season.
As a result, after the 32nd Premier League match, Manchester United were still at the top of the Premier League with 78 points. Leeds United are second in the Premier League, with 77 points, just one point behind Manchester United.
This time, the Premier League championship race has really reached a white-hot situation.
Chelsea are third in the Premier League with 73 points, still four points behind Leeds United. Fourth place went to Sheffield Wednesday, with 61 points, overtaking Arsenal. Arsenal are ranked fifth in the league with 57 points and Liverpool sixth in the Premier League with 57 points. Arsenal are in danger.
It is not only the Premier League title race that has reached a climax, but the Champions League qualification race has also reached a climax. The competition for European qualifications had also reached a white-hot stage, and the cla. S.s escalation battles were similarly intense.
This season’s Premier League is really popular, can be called the Warring States melee.
This is to let a lot of Chinese fans see the situation of the Serie A Seven sisters back then, this season’s Premier League is really too hot, too good-looking.
Now, Zhong Cheng was in a good mood to face Chelsea.
Yes, in the 33rd Premier League match, Leeds United will play Chelsea at home at Elland Road Stadium. This game is very crucial, if Leeds United can not beat Chelsea, will certainly be Manchester United draw a gap.
Therefore, Leeds United must win this match.
In Zhong Cheng’s eyes, the rest of the matches had to be won so that they could counter-attack Manchester United and win the Premier League this season.
Yes, Leeds United now have a chance to counter-attack Manchester United.
There is only a point difference between Leeds United and Manchester United, The final round of the Premier League this season is a direct confrontation between Manchester United and Leeds United. If Leeds United keep winning and go to the final round against Manchester United, as long as they defeat Manchester United, Leeds United will reverse Manchester United and win the Premier League this season.
So now, for Leeds United, every league game is crucial and must be won.
And the rest of the calendar is good for Leeds United, who face Sheffield United, Everton, Wigan Athletic, Bolton and Manchester United in the remaining games. Manchester United face Chelsea, Middlesbrough, Everton, Manchester City and Leeds United in the final rounds.
Yes, in the last few rounds, it was obvious that Leeds United’s schedule was easier. Their opponents weren’t very strong, and the main one was Everton. Manchester United, on the other hand, are facing Chelsea, Everton and Manchester City, which is difficult for them. And just after the Manchester derby, they were going to beat Leeds United to death, which was very difficult.
At the same time, Manchester United have a Champions League game behind them, which will affect their performance in the league. So now it looks like Leeds United are in the best interest.
Therefore, the Leeds United fans were very happy and excited. They were very excited.
Now Zhong Cheng was waiting to play against Chelsea. This match was very crucial and he had to win.
–Division Line–
At this moment, UEFA came to a decision.
Uefa admitted that the referee had some problems refereeing the match, but it was not as bad as Zhong Cheng’s reaction, and no one wanted to manipulate the match. There weren’t so many dirty insiders and traders in this match, and it was entirely because the referee’s business skills weren’t enough.
Uefa officials say the last goal for leeds united against liverpool was a goal, but the speed of the ball was so fast that it was hard to tell the difference with the naked eye and the referee was right to make such a decision.
Of course, the referee was in a very good position at the time. He should have seen it clearly. But because of his poor quality or other reasons, he made a wrong judgment about the ball, which is the responsibility of the referee.
Of course, apart from that, the referee did a good job in this match. There were no negligent sentences and no mistakes. Therefore, Zhong Cheng’s reaction was too extreme. The referee didn’t have too much of a problem.
Of course, the referee had to bear the responsibility for such a serious misjudgment.
For this reason, UEFA imposed a five-match ban and a fine of 50,000 on the referee of the match. The punishment did not look heavy, and reporters thought it was too light.
Uefa later criticized Zhong for making irresponsible remarks after the match, saying that it was a move to discredit Uefa and that it should be punished severely. At the same time, Zhong Cheng provoked the authority of the referee team and made many unforgivable mistakes.
UEFA has decided after internal discussions that, Zhong Cheng was punished as follows, The first was a four-match ban on Zhong Cheng (UEFA Champions League only), followed by a fine of 100,000 euros, and UEFA imposed a fine of 100,000 euros on Leeds United and banned Leeds fans from the Elland Road Stadium for three games (UEFA Champions League only).
After this punishment came out, Leeds United cried out in alarm.
Holy shit, looking at this punishment, it didn’t seem like there was anything wrong with the referee. On the contrary, the problem was all on the side of Leeds United. This made Leeds United very angry and criticized the damned UEFA one after another.
At this time, countless Leeds fans claimed that UEFA was the underworld escorted by the French. Every season, the French team in the Champions League would receive a lot of preferential treatment. Platini was completely supporting his own forces and excluding dissidents. UEFA was stupid.
At this time, Leeds United fans were frantically attacking UEFA.
Zhong Cheng was also very unhappy and angry, he said: “Indeed, our Leeds United team is the unpopular one. It seems that some people are right, some organizations are most concerned about their own sons, not the feelings of other teams and fans …”
Media reporters once again broke out in sweat over Zhong Cheng, who was publicly bombarding UEFA. Will UEFA impose penalties on Zhong Cheng and Leeds United? In any case, they were extremely worried, so Zhong Cheng wouldn’t care!
Fortunately, there was no movement from UEFA, and there were no further punishments. It seemed that UEFA had also turned a blind eye to this, temporarily letting Zhong Cheng off the hook. Perhaps, UEFA does not want to make things too big!
