Tyrant of green giants, signed Guardiola at the beginning

"Leeds United's lead has been reduced to 3 points!"

"West Ham United successfully attacked Leeds United and Chelsea regained hope of defending the title."

"Leeds United are collapsing?"

"There are still 7 rounds left in the league, and the suspense about who will win the Premier League championship is endless!"

Panic.

Leeds seemed to be under a cloud.

The faces of the fans were uncertain.

It seems the Fleet Street prophecy is coming true.

Will the team really collapse?

At the end of March, Leeds United traveled to Switzerland to challenge Basel as a guest.

The first leg of the Europa League quarter-finals arrived as scheduled.

Basel, which was eliminated from the Champions League group stage and moved to the Europa League knockout stage, also reached the quarterfinals.

The overall strength of such an opponent is not bad.

As a Swiss giant, first of all, in terms of team structure, they can basically use the second-top players in the country as their team. The top players in the country will definitely go to the five major leagues.

The foreign players are mainly the best among the European second-tier players.

He is not well-known, and his actual combat ability is the main focus.

At the same time, compared to domestic leagues, they hope to make a difference in European competitions.

Full of fighting spirit and full devotion.

Shen Hao took the rotating lineup of Leeds United to the away game.

Leeds United, which mainly focused on counterattacks during the game, was passive throughout the game.

Their lineup today can be said to be the weakest card of the first team.

Basel has a good fighting force and frequently creates murderous opportunities at home.

With the situation in a very passive situation, Batistuta and Mendieta teamed up to take the lead in scoring.

After scoring the goal, Mendieta's eyes were extremely determined.

He is only one step away from reaching the semi-finals of the Europa League as agreed with Shen Hao!

a step far.

He can leave Leeds United in the summer.

Leeds United took the lead to score, and the Basel team's high-pitched and angry fighting spirit continued to increase!

Throughout the second half, Leeds United's defense was repeatedly broken.

The overall physical disadvantage overwhelmed Leeds United's defense, and Kompany and Kilgallon were unable to withstand Basel's repeated attacks.

Before the end of the game, Basel striker Petrich scored a winning goal in the penalty area!

Basel fans cheered heartily.

2: 1!

They reversed Leeds United.

The final whistle blows.

Leeds United suffered two consecutive defeats in the Europa League.

The difference is that they finally got the ticket to advance after losing the last game.

And today's defeat is obviously not conducive to their advancement to the Europa League semi-finals.

Leeds United's last four games have been 2 draws and 2 losses!

This is the most dismal stage of their performance since their promotion, and even since Leeds United entered the era of tyrants.

Fleet Street trumpeted Leeds United's collapse with even greater ferocity.

Leeds United return to their hometown to rest.

It's April.

Even Leeds United fans started to panic.

However, Shen Hao knew that the team's own operation was indeed in a difficult stage.

The accumulation of fatigue throughout the season lengthens your body's recovery cycle.

If it weren't for the system buff, the team would have run out of gas.

Shen Hao turned on the system.

Look at the less than 3000 points on the account.

There is no need to continue to accumulate at this time.

lottery.

twice.

Physical strength increased by 20%, one scroll for 30 days.

Training and competition ability experience is increased by 500%, and one scroll is available for 30 days.

Shen Hao didn't hesitate and gave Rivaldo the scroll to increase his physical strength.

Experience scroll to Kompany.

Although Kompany does not have the most game time, it does not seem to be the maximum effectiveness of the reel.

But because there is no other better use target.

It would be most appropriate to give it to Kompany.

Even if there is a lack of games, Shen Hao still wants to grab time.

Judging from the current situation, Leeds United's back line must be reshuffled next season.

Both Redondo and DeBoer could only retreat to the second line and become substitutes.

Not only do they want to compete in the Premier League, but they also want to compete in the Champions League.

Kompany's growth is imminent.

If it weren't for the Premier League being involved in the title race.

Shen Hao will definitely let Kompany play the main role now.

But he couldn't afford to take the risk.

Compared with player growth, maintaining record is the most important thing right now!

4 month 3 day.

Leeds United visit Blackburn Rovers.

Mark Hughes' side nearly beat Leeds United in the first half of the league clash.

This has kept him brooding.

Blackburn's record this season has exceeded expectations and can be said to be in the same league as Tottenham and Arsenal.

As long as they can rank further, they can enter the Europa League next season.

There is basically no hope of a top four spot in the Champions League next season.

Leeds United and Chelsea compete for the title, while Manchester United and Liverpool maintain the top four.

On the eve of the final sprint phase of the league, the pattern has been decided.

Unless the two teams that secure fourth place have a collapse ending, then Arsenal, Tottenham, and Blackburn will have a chance to counterattack and grab tickets for next season's Champions League.

Leeds United's main force came out.

Blackburn still has a simple, rough and dare-to-fight style.

Jamie Redknapp's condition began to improve after returning from injury, which helped Leeds United significantly improve the quality of midfield organization and control.

Simeone takes a rest today, with Roy Keane and Davis playing as a defensive midfielder.

Leeds United and Blackburn did not fall behind in the midfield confrontation, and sometimes even showed a strong style of attacking the visitors.

Under the impact of public opinion about the "crash", Leeds United did not panic, but became more determined and focused.

Before the end of the half, Rivaldo dribbled across from the right side of the frontcourt, almost guarding Blackburn's midfielder, and after finding the best passing route, sent a through ball.

Ribery did not sloppily pass the ball back after successfully cutting inside.

Claudio Lopez formed a containment in the forward outflanking.

Jamie Redknapp came under the opponent's cover and broke into the penalty area to receive Franck Ribery's pass, and blasted the ball into the lower right corner of the goal with a powerful shot!

Leeds United leads Blackburn 1:0 away from home.

Mark Hughes remained calm as he firmly believed that Leeds United would be hampered by their lack of physical fitness in the second half of the game.

The second half of the game came.

Blackburn's overall endurance is still reflected, gradually forming an advantage.

However, David Bentley, who performed well when the two teams played against each other in the first half of the season, performed poorly today.

Center Dickov also doesn't have much presence.

Blackburn wasted a lot of opportunities.

Leeds United's fast break threat was contained by the opponent's faster fighting and zone defense.

Mark Hughes took the initiative to make a substitution in the 60th minute of the game.

Bentley was substituted along with Dickov.

Leeds United also made a substitution after 5 minutes.

Vieri replaces Claudio Lopez.

Just after the 75th minute of the game, under Blackburn's aggressive attack, forward Kuchi, who came on as a substitute, seized the opportunity to score in the penalty area!

"1:1! Blackburn equalized the score. Leeds United may have three games without a win in the league. Will a collapse really happen?"

"Even if this is not enough to knock them down from the top spot, it will definitely have a negative impact on the team's state and confidence."

Shen Hao was silent for a moment on the sidelines.

As the game approached 80 minutes, Leeds United used the last two substitutions.

Guardiola and Batistuta appear.

Replaced Redondo and Roy Keane.

Mark Hughes not only did not panic when he saw this, but his eyes were cold.

"court death!"

Leeds United changes 334.

The ball control and organizational creation abilities of the midfield and frontcourt are close to full.

Blackburn turned to defensive counterattack.

Leeds clearly needed a win more than they did.

When Blackburn's counterattack advanced to the frontcourt, Kelly, Candela, DeBoer and Davis directly committed the foul principle.

Blackburn's counterattack threat was contained.

Even if Leeds United paid the price of being yellow.

This made Mark Hughes a little angry and gnashing his teeth.

"Let's see how long you can last!"

Shen Hao's eyes were firm, and Leeds United's midfield and frontcourt offense was organized quickly and smoothly. Vieri and Batistuta actively moved in the penalty area to grab points.

Blackburn's defense was in disarray.

Just after the 90th minute of the game, Ribery sent a 45-degree pass from the wing into the penalty area and was cleared by the defender who retreated to the small penalty area.

As soon as the released football hit the ground, Jamie Redknapp touched the ball first and sent a cross.

Guardiola followed up from the side to meet the ball and sent a direct pass.

Rivaldo cut inside to the middle of the penalty area, touched the ball, stopped and swung the ball diagonally to complete the adjustment, then swung his leg and volleyed.

The football blasted by the left foot flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

The line is reversed and the angle is tricky.

Blackburn goalkeeper Friedel could only watch the ball and sigh after making the save.

boom!

Leeds United fans cheered.

Very pleasantly surprised.

"Rivaldo kills! It's Rivaldo again! Rivaldo, who will turn 34 in half a month, can still have such a wonderful performance when the game is fierce for 90 minutes. It's incredible!"

"When Leeds United needed 3 points the most, Rivaldo stepped forward, and we also saw that the entire team was always operating in an orderly manner, which is enough to reflect the maturity and fearlessness of this team."

Shen Hao gritted his teeth and clenched his fist, lowered his head and roared.

in!

We must win this game!

Mark Hughes' head was buzzing.

Rivaldo's goal almost exploded his mentality.

"Faq, outrageous! Rivaldo is really a devil!"

After the Leeds United generals celebrated, without Shen Hao's gesture, they collectively retreated to strengthen their defense.

Blackburn launched a full-scale counterattack.

The style of play was not delicate enough, and after being cleared, their defense suffered another heavy blow!

Vieri acted as a fulcrum to pass the ball back, and Guardiola delivered an overhead pass.

Ribery went to the meeting alone after successfully countering offside.

Blackburn fans were instantly dumbfounded.

Their desperate counterattack sounded their own death knell!

Ribery chose a long-range shot after Friedel gave up the goal.

A curling kick sent the ball into the far corner of the goal.

Ping pong!

Leeds United scored two goals in one minute!

Leading Blackburn 3:1.

"Now the victory is sealed, haha!"

"It's not easy. We won the game at the last minute."

"But it's a good sign."

The final whistle blows.

Mark Hughes looked unwilling, but he still shook hands with Shen Hao calmly after the game.

This defeat basically declared Blackburn passive in the fight for Europa League tickets.

Leeds United maintained their 3-point lead over Chelsea.

Since Chelsea were eliminated from the Champions League, they have concentrated on playing in the league.

The performance was outstanding, and the winning streak has not been broken to this day.

"Leeds United won and stopped losing. The initiative to compete for the Premier League title is still in their hands!"

"The final sprint phase of the league is about to begin. Can Leeds United continue their unbeaten streak?"

"Leeds United are only 6 games away from a new record in history. The newly promoted team wins the championship? Undefeated in the season?"

The Premier League is about to start the final six rounds of sprint.

External public opinion is even more noisy.

Shen Hao was calm.

No more showing up at the Elland Road pub in the evenings.

He didn't care where Chen Hao took Zhao Xin to have fun.

Staying in Bai Muxin's small villa, sitting on the sofa at night with her eyes closed and meditating, the sweet music she played echoed in my ears.

The more he reached this stage, the more he had to stay calm.

In my mind, I am already familiar with the information about my opponents in the next six rounds.

In addition to the opponent's strength, characteristics, and playing style, there are also factors such as the opponent's competitive situation, season goals, and other factors.

There were so many things, he analyzed them slowly and sorted out his thoughts.

Just like peeling off the cocoon, the strategic design gradually became clear.

At this time, even Leeds United fans support the team to abandon the Europa League!

Don't look at it, just one step away from the top four.

But reaching the semi-finals means there are still two crucial semi-finals.

Leeds United's recent performance.

Obviously it can't withstand such a torment.

When Leeds United faced Basel at home in midweek, Leeds United fans were surprised to find that although the team had rotated, it was not thorough.

The strength of the starting lineup has improved a lot compared to the first round.

Ribery, Vieri, Batistuta and Mendieta started.

Jamie Redknapp and Davies play in the midfield double.

The defensive line is a rotating lineup.

Basel defeated Leeds United 2:1 at home in the first leg.

When we come to the away game, we naturally play defensive counterattack.

Leeds United quickly increased the pace of the game from the start of the game, and the team flew together on both wings to quickly create threats in the frontcourt.

Basel's defense was in a hurry.

They intuitively felt that this was completely different from the Leeds United they faced at home.

He was forced to foul one after another to curb Leeds United's offensive rhythm, and paid the price of three yellow cards in 20 minutes.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Basel's defensive counterattack ripped open the Leeds United defense and scored the first goal.

Leeds United fans closed their eyes and sighed.

"It's better to just give up!"

"Yeah, it would be really hurt if we don't win at home!"

"Even if we win, it will definitely have a significant impact on our league championship."

Shen Hao remained calm and actively gestured to the team on the sidelines.

Basel leads Leeds United 3:1 on aggregate.

If Leeds United doesn't want to play overtime, they have to score three goals in regular time.

As the threat of Leeds United's continued offensive continued to accumulate pressure, the opponent's defense line rushed by Vieri and Batistuta was already in disarray.

In the 32nd minute of the game, Mendieta received a pass from Jamie Redknapp in the front and right area of ​​the penalty area, completed a cross-cut adjustment, and then took a shot.

The football rolled through the crowd and into the lower left corner of the goal!

Leeds United pulled one back.

The team's morale was greatly boosted and their fighting spirit was even stronger.

Just 5 minutes later, Ribery's cross from the left wing flew to the center of the goal. Vieri grabbed the position under the attack and scored from the top!

The total score is Leeds United 3:3 Basel.

Leeds United fans cheered uncontrollably.

At this time, all those utilitarian calculations have been forgotten.

Shen Hao didn't smile, but he clapped his hands to signal the team to keep up the good work.

Before the end of the half, Mendieta's cross from the right side of the frontcourt was cleared by the Basel defender at the back point of the penalty area.

As a result, the football hit Batistuta and bounced directly into the goal!

The mentality of Basel fans exploded!

"Is this okay for riding on a horse?"

"Leeds United are so lucky!"

"It was more like Leeds United bombing and creating goals naturally."

Shen Hao raised his fists and roared wildly on the sidelines.

Total score, Leeds United 4:3 Basel!
