Joe Royle said: "At the beginning of the season, the performance of Leeds United unexpectedly exceeded many expectations, and also exceeded my expectations. Their results were very good, and Madman Loya's strength surprised me. But Now everyone can see that the set of tactics of Leeds United has been thoroughly understood by everyone, they are not a concern now, this game, Ipswich is confident to win! "

Faced with questions from media reporters, Joe Royle immediately said: "Of course, we will not make any changes. We are very confident in our offense. And here is our home field, we will definitely have The sharp attack on Leeds United in the fierce waters, I am confident! "

Ipswich is now the most attacking team in the Premier League. They have now scored 42 goals in 18 rounds, averaging 2.3333 goals per game. This goal rate is very amazing. No wonder Joe Royle would be so clamoring before the game, people really have the confidence and ability.

━━━Split line ━━━

November 13, 2004, Ipswich, Suffolk, England.

Today the Portman Lu stadium is crowded, and almost all are home team fans. They are wearing blue home jerseys to cheer for their favorite team and cheer.

Today, there are still some Leeds United fans going away, but they have lost too little, and it seems that not even a hundred of them have arrived. This shows the embarrassing situation of Leeds United at this stage.

However, Zhong Cheng didn't care too much, as long as he was full at home, and he couldn't receive the entrance fee.

In the shabby visiting team's locker room, Zhong Cheng is giving the players a chance.

Zhong Cheng said very seriously: "This Ipswich is very strong. They were relegated from the Premier League two seasons ago, but in the following two seasons, they performed very well in the English Premier League. They all made it to the promotion play-offs and ended up losing ground, which shows that they are the top teams in the English Champions League! "

Zhong Cheng's words are good. He has reached the promotion playoffs for two consecutive seasons, almost upgrading, which is not possible for many teams.

Zhong Cheng continued: "Joe Royle took over the team for a season and a half, and now the game is more pure. This is a very difficult bone!"

Leeds players rarely saw Zhong Cheng so serious, it seems that they have only seen before playing against Arsenal. The fans of Leeds United were stunned. Zhong Cheng even put Ipswich on a level with Arsenal. They knew the difficulty of this game.

Zhong Cheng said: "Ipswich's forward is very powerful. Do we have to know our defense closely in this game?"

Leeds players nodded.

Zhong Cheng said: "Ipswich's forward line is a high and fast combination. Shefki Kuch is a Finn trapeze with a height of 188. He has a very good header ability and is a player of the Finnish national team. He is paired with young England. U21 national team main striker Darren Bent, this is a pair of forwards with very efficient goals! "

The players of Leeds United got serious and sharp eyes.

Zhong Cheng said, "Here I want to highlight Darren Bent. This is a fast forward. At the age of 17, he played for Ipswich in the Premier League. He played 7 times that season and scored. 2 two goals, good performance. After Ipswich's relegation, the young talented forward is the main force to stabilize the team, scoring 18 goals in the 2002-2003 season, scoring 16 goals in the 2003-2004 season, Ben He has scored eight goals this season and I think you all know what that means? "

Leeds' defensive players are very serious.

Zhong Cheng said: "The defensive task of this game is very heavy, Gerald and Thomas, you two must keep me in position, you must stare at this sharp offensive combination!"

Later generations of Zhong Cheng have studied the first year of the British Championship. Ipswich ’s super forward combination has attracted Zhong Cheng ’s attention. In future generations, the two have scored 39 goals this season. Shevkey Kutch scored 20 goals, Darren Bent scored 19 goals, the efficiency is very amazing.

This is why Zhong Cheng attaches importance to this combination. The two are a classic one high and one fast combination, and there is still a tacit understanding and chemical reaction between the two, which is even more difficult to deal with.

In addition, Ipswich midfielder has assisting experts such as semi-Scottish national Tommy Miller and Northern Ireland international Jim Magilton. This is why Ipswich's offense is sharp.

On the side of Leeds United, Bomson was injured and still recovering. Today Zhong Cheng had to drain the young center defender of Pique and Wilmaren. Can this combination carry the impact of these two forwards? It's really hanging.

Zhong Cheng finally ordered a sentence: "Gerald, Thomas, you may be suffering today!"

The two immediately neatly said, "Relax, boss, we won't let you down!"

Zhong Cheng reminded Zimbonda and Gary Kelly: "Pascal and Gary, you must pay attention not only to the defense of Tommy Miller and others, but also to the other two full-backs Matthew Richard And Fabian Venice, these two have great assists! "

Gary Kelly nodded firmly.

After finishing the defense, Zhong Cheng started to talk about the offense again.

Zhong Cheng said: "Ipswich's central defender combination is also a combination of high and fast, 193cm Canadian international Jason Devos and black central defender Derissa Diallo from Africa. The cooperation between the two is also very good. This season, Ipswich has lost 21 goals so far. Their defense is not the best, but they also have a certain strength! "

The Leeds' offensive players nodded and said they knew.

Zhong Cheng said: "Jason Devos has a slow turning speed, so he is generally dragging back and defending frontally, while Derissa Diallo is fast and flexible. Defensive, this guy is amazing!

Leeds's offensive players listened to Zhong Cheng's introduction, they were all thinking carefully about the method.

Zhong Cheng said: "Ipswich's two full-backs came in to assist, and the range of assists was relatively large. We must use the space behind them, you know?"

The Leeds' offensive players caught their eyes and found the focus of the attack.

Zhong Cheng said: "We have lost five consecutive games in the league, and now we cannot lose again. And you know, this game is a six-point game, and I hope you can go all out to win this Match, we need this victory! "

The Leeds players immediately and firmly shouted: "Victory! Victory! Victory!"

Leeds United today played a four two three one formation:

Goalkeeper: Scott Carson

Four defenders [from left to right]: Zim Bonda, Wilmaren, Pique and Gary Kelly

Double backs: Russ Diarra and Albertini

Three avant-garde [from left to right]: Ribery, Modric and Lennon

Single forward: Huntelaar

Ipswich's formation today is a forty-two:

Goalkeeper: Kevin Davis

Four defenders [from left to right]: Matthew Richards, Derissa Diallo, Jason DeVos, and Fabian Venice

Four midfielders [from left to right]: Tommy Miller, Kevin Hollock, Tony Tinin, Jim Magilton

Double forwards: Shefki Kuch and Darren Bent

Looking at this lineup, Ipswich is very strong. There are many international players in the lineup, and they are all of good strength.

At the beginning of the game, Ipswich launched a very fierce attack in the cheers of the fans.

Ipswich's midfielders are all international players. Although they are not the absolute main players today, the strength of these people is already very good. Jim Magilton is very old. By the age of 35, It is said that he will retire after this season, but today he started.

Jim Magilton is old and speed is not enough, but his experience is very rich. He was once the Northern Ireland international. His current pass is very demon and very coquettish!

Just five minutes after the start of the game, Jim Magilton sent a very accurate cross forty-five degrees, and the football quickly passed the top of Vermaren's head and flew behind Vermaren. Finnish flying man Shevki Kutch.

Shefki Kutch's title of Finnish flying man comes from a celebration action after he scored a goal. He rushed a certain distance, then kicked his legs, and the whole body flew out, flying into the air, as if swimming The athletes started the same way, then plunged into the swimming pool, while Kuch fell on the turf.

The commentator at the time gave Shefki Kuch a moniker of Finnish trapeze, and it has been used ever since.

And there are also claims that the title of Finnish trapeze, Kuch, is a tribute to his jumping ability, because when he jumps up for the header, he really looks like a trapeze.

At this moment, Shefki Kuch jumped up high, like a flying man.

In the crazy screams of Ipswich fans in the audience, Shevki Kuchi shook his head towards the ball and slammed the football backward.

"Finnish trapeze header!" Exclaimed Mark Laurenson.

Ipswich's offensive power is really good. This game has just begun and they have got a very good opportunity to endanger Leeds' goal.

This ball is flying fast, like a flash of lightning.

Scott Carson was frightened in front of the goal. He flew out on the side and stretched desperately with one hand.

To be honest, Scott Carson himself did not have the confidence to catch the ball.

With a snap, Scott Carson photographed the football in his right hand. He was overjoyed, and the Leeds fans on the sidelines jumped up and cheered excitedly.

The football immediately bounced out and flew towards the middle of the penalty area.

"Ah, no!" Eddie Gray suddenly exclaimed, his face pale.

"Goal scored! Goal scored! Just five minutes into the opening, Ipswich scored! The goal was their young striker Darren-Bent!" Mark Lawrence was immediately shocked Exhale.
