Zero to zero, this score is actually not a good thing for Leeds United!
Because as long as Barcelona score a goal away, Leeds must score one more goal than others, which is very difficult.
Of course, Leeds United can also use their super strong defense to make Barcelona not score a goal, but in terms of Barcelona's attacking strength, this is actually very difficult.
Therefore, after returning to home, this game is also a test for Leeds United.
In the first round, Pique did not start, and I don't know why. Therefore, Zhong Cheng also did not meet Pique, but met Guardiola.
Seeing Guardiola again, Zhong Cheng felt strange.
Of course, Guardiola also felt strange.
When the two first met, Zhong Cheng hoped to be able to introduce Guardiola and bring him to Leeds United. Unfortunately, Guardiola did not agree, and Zhong Cheng chose Albertini.
It can now be confirmed that Guardiola's choice was wrong.
He didn't come to Leeds United at the beginning. In the end of his career, it was actually not very good. Even if he went to West Asia to dig for gold, there was nothing commendable. The last period was almost the same as retirement.
On the contrary, Albertini came to Leeds United with a new glory.
I don't know, will there be some regrets in Guardiola now? Regret not choosing Leeds?
In fact, he should not regret it, after all, he has now become the head coach of Barcelona.
In becoming a coach, Guardiola walked ahead of Albertini.
And Guardiola has become the head coach of the world's top giant Barcelona. He should not regret it at all.
Guardiola's goal now is to bring Barcelona back to its peak!
Zhong Cheng once again secretly said Guardiola did feel a little strange. Sure enough, Guardiola was still Guardiola, but then there was a good show.
Zhong Cheng did not dare to underestimate Guardiola. This guy is very strong. Even in Zhong Cheng's memory, Guardiola led the Barcelona team to start the Dream Three Dynasty.
And Guardiola's Dream Three Dynasty began from this season.
However, to be honest, Guardiola's first UEFA Champions League title managed by Barcelona is actually a misnomer. Why do countless fans claim that Barcelona is UEFA's son? It is also related to this.
In Zhong Cheng's memory, the team that reached the semi-finals this season should be Chelsea, and Chelsea will face Barcelona. The first round of the two sides was also a zero-to-zero draw. After returning to their home court, Chelsea ushered in the second round of the game.
In this game, Chelsea took the lead in the ninth minute when Michael Essien broke Barcelona's goal. However, this was the start of the Chelsea nightmare. Chelsea players were repeatedly brought down by Barcelona players in the penalty area, but the referee Herning ignored and ignored.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Pique blatantly handball in the penalty area, the referee Herning still turned a blind eye. In the 93rd minute of the game, Iniesta equalized the score.
At the last minute of injury time, Barak's kick was shot by Eto'o in the penalty area, but Herning remained indifferent and turned a blind eye. The angry Barak rushed directly to Herning's theory and was shown a yellow card warning. The Chelsea fans at the scene almost didn't rush to the **** head referee. Herning was chased by Chelsea players. After the game ended, he ran away the first time, even the football was not recovered. I'm really afraid I can't safely leave Stamford Bridge.
This game, with the help of referee Herning, Barcelona advanced to the finals with an away goal.
In this game, Herning at least killed Chelsea's three penalty kicks!
After the game, angry Drogba rushed to the camera and growled wildly: "This is a shameful game!"
It is said that this is because UEFA did not want the UEFA Champions League final to become a civil war for the Premier League team again, so it directed a farce. Since then, Barcelona's identity as UEFA's illegitimate child has become more solid.
The history of this game is called the "Stanford Bridge Massacre!"
Therefore, Guardiola, who has just taken over Barcelona at this stage, has not yet built Barcelona into a winning team, which still needs time to accumulate.
Of course, Zhong Cheng's heart is also rushing now. Such a farce appears in the parallel world in Zhong Cheng's memory. Will this farce also appear in this spacetime? Will UEFA not hope that the UEFA Champions League final will become a Premier League civil war again, and take the shot to stalk it?
Zhong Cheng's brow was tightly frowned, and his thoughts were in the air!
The other semi-final is the Premier League's civil war. It is certain that a Premier League team has advanced to the final.
If UEFA does not want this game to become a Premier League civil war, their next goal is to get rid of Leeds United and let Barcelona advance!
Therefore, Zhong Cheng's mood is very low at this time, and his mood is very complicated!
What makes Zhong Cheng feel more complicated is that not long ago, UEFA officially announced a message that the referees in the second round of the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals of Barcelona and Leeds were temporarily replaced. The original Italian Referee Robert Rossetti was replaced by Tom Herning from Norway.
Seeing here, Zhong Cheng is absolutely determined!
To be honest, Italian referee Roberto Rossetti is a good referee, he was praised by the famous Italian referee Corina as "the gem of the Italian referee crown!"
To be honest, Zhong Cheng hopes that the referee will enforce their second round match with Barcelona.
The referee law enforcement for this game was arranged long ago, but UEFA suddenly made a change. It is said that the reason they gave was that Italian referee Roberto Rossetti was suddenly injured and was unable to enforce the game.
Therefore, UEFA changed the referee and let the Norwegian Tom Herning enforce the game.
What makes Zhong Cheng speechless is that the referee also has a loud title "Official Whistle" in the circle.
Tom Herning is an authentic Norwegian and a psychologist. He officially became a referee in 1980, but he was only a siege international referee in 1994.
However, from 2001 to 2006, he won the best referee in Norway for five consecutive years, and he has performed many international law enforcement competitions. But his reputation is not very good, it seems to be an official chess piece.
Anyway, the reputation of this product is not very good.
Now that UEFA has temporarily deployed this person to enforce Leeds United against Barcelona in this second round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final, Zhong Cheng will inevitably think more.
In his memory, this one made a farce!
Zhong Cheng's mood is now very unpleasant. This UEFA does not really want to see the Champions League final become a Premier League civil war!
In this way, the Champions League is about to become the FA Cup.
Zhong Cheng's psychology is very unpleasant, but also reminds the players of Leeds United team that in the next game, everyone must be careful and careful. Never give Tom Herning any chance of success.
Zhong Cheng is well prepared. Compared with Chelsea, Leeds United should be much better!
Of course, in addition to beware of Tom Herning, Zhong Cheng also beware of Barcelona.
Barcelona's strength is still very strong, but to be honest, they are not yet strong enough to be prohibitive.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng is confident in this game.
Zhong Cheng is now preparing for the second round of the UEFA Champions League semi-final. He is convinced that they can win this game.
Now Leeds United are facing the 35th round of the Premier League, which is just as important for Leeds United.
Now Leeds United is not even holding the fourth place in the Premier League. It is very dangerous.
This round of the game, Leeds United played against Stoke City away. Opponents are now ranked 12th in the Premier League, with eight points ahead of the relegation zone. As long as the Stoke City team does not lose in the final four rounds, they will have a reputation for relegation. Of course, even a total loss may not be relegated.
Therefore, the Stoke City team is still very good.
Leeds United ’s opponents in this game are not very strong, but Zhong Cheng does not want to use the main players to play this game, because next week is the life and death battle of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals. Leeds United The main players are preparing for that game.
At the same time in this round of competition, Leeds United's rival Arsenal are also away, they are challenging Portsmouth. Portsmouth is behind the Stoke City team, only one point behind the Stoke City team, so Leeds United and Arsenal are about the same.
In addition, Arsenal will have to stay for the Champions League semi-finals next week. This game is the same for Arsenal and Leeds.
In the first round of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, Arsenal lost to Manchester United by 0 to 1 away. Next week, Arsenal are about to beat Manchester United, so they will do their best in this game. Possibly staying.
Obviously, Arsenal also want to go hand in hand with the league and the Champions League.
In this round of the game, Zhong Cheng is a full bench player to treat this game. In the end, Leeds United relied on Lewandowski's goal to win the Stoke City team by 1-0, and got a difficult three-pointer.
However, Leeds United did not overtake Arsenal. The Arsenal team performed very well. They beat Portsmouth 3-0, scored three points, and continued to lead Leeds United.
Yes, after this round, there are only three final rounds left. There are not many opportunities left for Leeds United. Is it true that Leeds United will not be able to qualify for the top four of the Premier League this season?
If this is the case, this is also the first time that Zhong Cheng led Leeds United to miss the top four of the Premier League after upgrading to the Premier League. This is not a good record!
