Chapter 180： Episode [180]: Footsteps of the Premier League

The sudden loss of Leeds United caused the entire English League to boil. They thought that Leeds United would not lose, and they would win this way!

The Leeds United team has put a lot of pressure on the English League team. Their strength makes many people do not see the hope of winning the championship. It seems that the British Champions League this season has been booked by the Leeds. .

However, Leeds lost in this round of competition, which is everyone's favorite.

It turns out that Leeds United will also lose, which makes other teams in the Champions League full of confidence, especially Sunderland.

During this time, the state of the Sunderland team is really good. Mick McCarthy has tuned the Sunderland team into a winning coach. From mid-February, the Sunderland team has now They have not lost before, they have won 8 games in a row, the strong wind is like Leeds United!

Now the Sunderland team is only 4 points behind Leeds United. The Sunderlanders have seen the hope of winning the Champions League. Their ambitions have begun to grow. They want to overthrow Leeds United and get the Champions League this season Champion!

Sure enough, as Zhong Cheng expected, Mick McCarthy was a great guy!

At the most critical time, the Sunderland team held their ground and made a strong eight-game winning streak for the first time, which is really impressive. Now Zhong Cheng also has to bite the bullet. They must stand up to the onslaught of Sunderland. This season's Champions League title, they must win the Leeds United!

Now is the crucial time, at this time no one wants to lose, everyone wants to win.

On April 9, 2005, in the 42nd round of the Champions League, Zhong Cheng led Leeds United to the away team to challenge Watford. Watford is now ranked 20th in the Champions League and fifth from last. Position, but their points are 45 points, just one more than the penultimate and third penultimate Gillingham and Brighton, and Gillingham and Brighton together have 44 points. The penultimate Nottingham Forest team has five more points, and Watford is still stuck in the relegation zone.

Here I have to talk about Brighton. After Kevin Blackwell's Brighton was smashed by Zhong Cheng's Leeds, Brighton, who was in the middle of the game, has been in a slump since then and has been in the league. Losing the ball, Kevin Blackwell was snoozed by Zhong Cheng. He became the laughingstock of the whole British continent. Perhaps it is not enough pressure resistance, Brighton is about to be relegated in his hands.

At this time, the Brighton executives were intolerable and finally fired Kevin Blackwell after the end of the last round. Brighton has also become the first team to dismiss the employer coach twice in the English Premier League this season. Now Brighton is packing up the mess left by Kevin Blackwell.

Now, the fans of Leeds United are all grateful. Fortunately, Zhong Cheng gave away the fool Kevin Blackwell at first, otherwise they said they must not go to the English League.

Closer to home, Zhong Cheng will now face the relegation team Watford.

To be honest, the more it gets to this point, the harder it is for relegation teams to play because they have to fight hard for you.

Sure enough, at the beginning of the game, the Watford team was desperately playing. In the game, the action was very large, very rough, and even crazy than Leeds United. On the pitch, people turned their backs, and Zhong Cheng was very nervous and very worried.

Sure enough, in the 22nd minute of the first half, Ribery left the field with an injury. But the injury was not serious, just rest for a week. However, he couldn't play this game, Zhong Cheng was very angry and kept complaining to the fourth official on the sidelines.

In the thirty-sixth minute of the first half, Leeds' Ironman Russ Diarra seriously injured his stance and announced his reimbursement for this season. The referee gave a verbal warning to the fouled player. Zhong Cheng was angry at the time. This was an absolute red card action, a very bad action, but the referee turned a blind eye and merely verbally warned that Zhong Cheng did not rush. It's good to go up and hit that **** referee into the hospital.

The angry Zhong Cheng scolded madly on the sidelines and even mobilized the Leeds fans on the court to humiliate the referee and embarrass the referee. The referee sent Zhong Cheng to the stand with a gloomy face.

In the second half of the game, the Watford team not only failed to converge, but was even more brutal. In the fifteenth minute of the second half, the main goalkeeper of Leeds United was injured and the injury was not particularly serious, but it was also a two-week truce. Seeing this, Zhong Cheng is going crazy.

The referee just wanted to show a yellow card to the foul player. The fans of the site Liz United were very angry, cursing the referee's ancestor eighteenth generation, and throwing hard objects on the pitch. The Leeds players on the court were also very angry, and once surrounded the referee in the middle, almost messed up.

The head referee faced the battle, and his urine was almost frightened.

Watford and the referee have angered Leeds United, and their moves are getting bigger and bigger. In just seven minutes, Leeds United have won five yellow cards.

The faces of Leeds United were gloomy, and everyone realized that this game was abnormal!

Leeds fans shouted wildly: "Black whistle! Manipulating the game! Shady! Fake ball! Fake ball!"

The fourth official on the sideline was full of cold sweat on his forehead. His heart was madly cursing his own colleagues on the field. This **** was too much. According to the current attention of the Leeds, it will definitely cause big trouble after the game. Damn stupid pig!

The fourth official is also fortunate that this game is not the home of the Leeds United, otherwise they will have a hard time leaving the stadium safely.

In the eighty-sixth minute of the game, the angry Milner knocked over Watford's forward in the penalty area, but the referee awarded a penalty and gave Milner a red card.

Seeing that the people of Leeds are no longer shouting here, they have no strength to shout.

In the end, Watford won the game with this controversial penalty!

After the game, Zhong Cheng was in front of the media, slamming the damned referee, swearing, and even greeted the garbage referee's ancestor eighteenth generation.

This remark came out of Zhong Cheng's mouth, naturally it has received the attention of countless media, and instantly spread throughout the British continent, causing a lot of attention and repercussions. All of England was watching this game. Almost anyone who has watched the live broadcast and video of this game can be sure that the referee has a problem, because the garbage is too obvious, and he has no brain.

This incident aroused the attention of the FA. The next day, the FA made three stops directly to the referee and set up an investigation team to investigate this guy. It quickly came to the conclusion that this guy was suspected of manipulating the game. Penalties for life suspension and fines. And the FA also sent the referee to the police, and this guy will be in prison for a while.

However, the FA also gave a verbal warning to Zhong Cheng, and this season's crazy attack on the referee's behavior after the game is very inappropriate. And this also damages the authority of the referee. When thinking about the total performance of this guy in the game, the English Football always confirms that Zhong Cheng's red card is established, but it is only a ban for Zhong Cheng. In the next game, Zhong Cheng Cannot appear on the sideline to command Leeds United.

And the result of this game is also considered to be valid.

In order to appease the Leeds United team, the FA did not make any punishment for the Leeds fans, because after the end of this game, the fans of the Leeds can make a mess.

Therefore, the FA's attitude is to calm the matter as soon as possible, and do not let this matter continue to ferment and expand its influence.

There is no way, Leeds United only admits!

━━━Split line ━━━

Fortunately, other competitors of Leeds United have lost in this round. Sunderland, Ipswich and other teams overturned at the same time in this round. The difference between them is not indented, which is why Zhong Cheng rests quietly.

If Sunderland and Ipswich and other teams have won in this round of competition, Zhong Cheng will not give up!

Now there are 4 rounds left in the league. Leeds United is still 9 points ahead of the third-place Ipswich team. If both teams win in the next round, Leeds has not yet determined to secure the top two because The difference in goal difference between the two teams is almost the same. However, if Leeds wins in the next round and both Ipswich and Wigan Athletic lose, Leeds will be able to lock a direct upgrade place three rounds in advance.

So the 43rd round of the next league game is extremely important for Leeds United, they must win. However, the outside world is not very optimistic about Leeds United, because Leeds United have now lost two games in a row, they seem to have no sense of winning.

On April 16, 2005, Leeds United continued their road trip. They will challenge the Queens Park Rangers. They are the team in the middle of the league. Now it is really hopeless to upgrade and to worry about relegation. So this game, Leeds United should still be very easy to win.

However, Zhong Cheng is very serious. Moreover, in this game, Leeds United still played in a residual battle. Leeds United was very cautious. In the end, Modric scored a long shot and broke the Queen's Park Rangers goal. .

Leeds United finally ended their two-game losing streak and got the long-awaited three-pointer!

After getting these three points, Leeds United still has 91 points, ranking first in the league. Sunderland, who ranked second in the round, was tied to the opponent and the points difference was widened again. The Sunderland team currently has 85 points, which is two wins away from Leeds United.

The third place is Wigan Athletic. They completed a counterattack against Ipswich in this round. Ipswich tied the score. Wigan Athletic scored 82 points, still behind Leeds United 9 Minute. Ipswich now has 80 points.

Now there are three rounds left in the league. Leeds United are 9 points ahead of third-placed Wigan Athletic. However, Wigan Athletic has a lot of goal difference, so now, Leeds United have not locked the top two positions in advance.

However, as long as Leeds United remain undefeated in the next round of competition, Leeds United will lock the top two positions of the league two rounds in advance and obtain the qualification to upgrade the Premier League in advance!

The next round is really too important for Leeds United. The entire team of Leeds United now feels an invisible pressure on them.

In the 44th round of the league, Leeds United will return to their home court to face Ipswich!

Yes, in the next round, Leeds will challenge the fourth-ranked Ipswich team. This team is very strong. Wigan Athletic and Sunderland naturally hope Ipswich. The team will be able to win the league and delay Leeds' advance so that they have a chance.

Similarly, Ipswich is also going to die with Leeds United because they also want to get the top two positions and get directly upgraded places.

Yes, the competition for the top two in the league has now become heated.

On April 23, 2005, Leeds United will face Ipswich at Elland Road Stadium, this season's English League is coming to an end!
