Episode [223]: Struggle to the Death, Useless
The Stamford Bridge stadium is packed with people!
There were really too many fans at the scene. Countless Chelsea fans wearing blue jerseys were very excited and happy. For them, this game was not a game at all, but a celebration. .
Yes, Chelsea people think they will definitely win!
Chelsea fans all pulled up very huge banners with various slogans celebrating Chelsea's promotion and congratulating Chelsea on their victory.
Moreover, Chelsea fans also prepared a lot of fireworks in the square outside the stadium. They are planning to set off fireworks to celebrate the team as soon as the game is over.
There are many Chelsea fans in the stadium, waving posters of Chelsea players holding up the UEFA Champions League trophy...
In the eyes of Chelsea people, they will definitely advance.
This game is just a formality, and the Leeds United people have no chance!
Chelsea people just have to sing and dance!
When the Leeds United fans saw this situation, their faces were very ugly. These damn Chelsea people were so defiant and arrogant.
All the Leeds United fans at the scene boycotted Chelsea crazily and cheered for the Leeds United players with songs.
A lot of football celebrities came to the scene to watch this game.
In the stands on one side of the Stamford Bridge stadium, Gerald Krasner appeared. He was sitting carelessly in the stands, ready to watch Zhong Cheng's jokes.
Today he came just to see Zhong Cheng’s jokes. He wanted to watch Zhong Cheng die!
For this reason, Gerald Krasner also invited many relatives and friends to watch the game. He wanted to humiliate Zhong Cheng in this way, so Taicai would feel extremely happy.
If possible, he would even like to invite Zhong Cheng's father and even his family to watch the game. That would be the most enjoyable.
It's a pity that Gerald Krasner's level is too low, and he can't contact people like Zhong Cheng's father, and he can't invite them at all.
However, Zhong Cheng's father, Lao Zhong, still came to the scene today to support Zhong Cheng. Their team, Leyton Orient, is in London. Old Zhongtou and his family have all moved to London. Today, Amelia George and Zhong Yao both came to watch the game.
Of course, Gerald Krasner didn't know this.
If he knew that Zhong Cheng's father and others had come to the scene, he would be very happy. This is the time he has dreamed of. He wanted to defeat Zhong Cheng in front of Zhong Cheng's closest relatives!
In this game, Zhong Cheng will definitely lose!
At this time, Gerald Krasner happened to see a good friend walking towards him. He immediately stood up excitedly, laughed excitedly, and walked towards this old friend.
"Kevin, I didn't expect you to come to the scene!" Gerald Krasner immediately exclaimed excitedly.
Kevin Blackwell also laughed and said: "How can I not be there when it is so exciting?"
The two looked at each other and smiled, both understanding the meaning of these words.
Gerald Krasner immediately said: "Yes, today is the day when crazy Loya is embarrassed, how can we not be there?"
Kevin Blackwell also nodded slightly and said, "Yes, I must be there, Crazy Loya, it's over!"
Gerald Krasner snorted in his heart: "I'm here today to see what else this lunatic can do, hahaha!"
Kevin Blackwell also snorted coldly: "Huh, you have a fart reputation, just wait to be embarrassed!"
━━━Separating line━━━
"Viewers, fans. Hello everyone. This is BBC Sports, and I am the Mark Lawrenson you are familiar with!" The BBC naturally has a live broadcast of such an important game, and Mark Lawrenson is In the dugout at Stamford Bridge.
"Hello everyone! I am the Eddie Gray you are familiar with. Today I partnered with Mark to bring you the commentary of this game!" Eddie Gray also said.
These two people are regular partners, and today they are the commentators.
"What we bring to you today is a match in the second leg of the quarter-finals of this season's UEFA Champions League. Chelsea played Leeds United at home. The two sides were 3-1 in the first leg, with Chelsea leading away from home. , got an astonishing three away goals!" Mark Lawrenson said immediately.
"Yes, this result is unexpected. At the same time, this is really too dangerous for Leeds United. Now they are very far behind. They need to score at least three robots in this game to ensure promotion. This is A very, very difficult thing!" Even Eddie Gray, a die-hard Leeds United fan, found this game very difficult. It seemed to be really difficult.
"Now that the players from both sides have entered the stadium, let's introduce today's starting lineups for both sides!" Mark Lawrenson said immediately.
"Okay, now let's introduce the starting lineups of both sides!" Eddie Gray said.
Today’s starting lineups for both sides are as follows:
Home team: Chelsea, coach: Louis van Gaal, formation 4-3-3
Goalkeeper: Petr Cech
Back four [from left to right]: Ashley Cole, Alex, John Terry and Paulo Ferreira
Midfield three [from left to right]: Michael Essien, Mikel and Frank Lampard
Three forwards [from left to right]: Salomon Kalou, Didier Drogba and Malouda
This is Chelsea's starting lineup today. This is a change from the first round of the match between the two sides, and that is the change in the defense.
Chelsea center back Ricardo Carvalho did not appear in the starting list today. The one who appeared in the starting list was Brazilian center back Alex. Alex is very physically fit and very fast. Obviously, Van Gaal needs to pay attention to the defense behind the two central defenders and strengthen the protection.
Alex's strength is very strong. It is really rare to be able to defend at high altitude and chase back. No wonder he is replacing Ricardo Carvalho today.
Elsewhere, there were no changes in the Chelsea team. It can be seen that Van Gaal was very satisfied with the lineups of both sides in the first round and did not make too many adjustments.
Of course, it seems that Deco, former Chelsea coach Scolari's favorite, was really relegated to the sidelines by Van Gaal. He has not appeared in the starting lineup for a long time.
The Chelsea fans at the scene were naturally very excited and excited when they saw this trick lineup. They believed that Chelsea was really stable in this game, and the Leeds United people had no chance at all.
Gerald Krasner in the stands looked at his friend Kevin Blackwell. Kevin Blackwell immediately said: "Chelsea's starting lineup is very good. Van Gaal did not temporarily disrupt the original pace. He wanted to continue the victory over Leeds United in the first round. This game Chelsea should have no problem in the game and will win!"
Yes, Kevin Blackwell as a manager also told Gerald Krasner in detail the top ten reasons why Leeds United cannot win...
In short, these two people came to watch the show today, to see a good show!
"Next, let me introduce to you the starting lineup of today's away team Leeds United!" Eddie Gray said immediately.
Many Chelsea fans in the stands don't care about this at all, and Kevin Blackwell also thinks so: "No one sent by Crazy Loya will have a chance, Leeds United will lose!"
Gerald Kleis also said excitedly: "That's right, Leeds United must lose!"
Today, Leeds United’s starting lineup is as follows:
Away team: Leeds United. Head coach: Zhong Cheng, formation: 4-1-3-2
Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng
Back four [from left to right]: Patrick Evra, Kompany, David Luiz and Glen Johnson
Single midfielder: Yaya Toure
Midfielder three [from left to right]: Gareth Bale. Luka Modric and Cristiano Ronaldo
Double forward: Diego Milito and Edinson Cavani
This is Leeds United's starting lineup today. Obviously, this has changed a lot from the first round between the two sides. Although there are no changes in the formation, there are big changes in personnel.
The first is the defense, both full-backs have been replaced. Replaced their main full-back. Obviously, the assist ability of these two full-backs is very strong, especially Glen Johnson on the right. This is an obvious full-back who is strong in offense and weak in defense. Zhong Cheng’s purpose of sending him is self-evident. And metaphor.
On the defensive midfielder line, Yaya Toure appeared on the starting list today, which is quite unexpected. It is obvious that Yaya Toure's offensive ability is much stronger than the other two.
Therefore, Zhong Cheng's attitude is very, very obvious.
There are no changes in the avant-garde line. The offensive power of this avant-garde line is really too powerful. Zhong Cheng cannot make any changes. Zhong Cheng trusts them very much.
Leeds United has also had some changes on the front line, that is, Edinson Cavani has returned from injury and has appeared in Leeds United's starting lineup, replacing Hulk last time.
However, I don’t know if Edinson Cavani’s injury is completely healed. I don’t know if it will have any big effect if Zhong Cheng starts him now!
Anyway, Kevin Blackwell and Gerald Krasner in the stands did not think this had any effect. Leeds United would definitely lose this game.
Chelsea fans also think so. Leeds United has no chance at all in this game. They can just keep their hands tied and wait to be eliminated.
When Van Gaal saw Zhong Cheng's lineup, they nodded slightly and were shocked.
To be honest, Zhong Cheng's arrangement was even more extreme than Van Gaal expected. It was obvious that Leeds United was going to fight Chelsea in this game and attacked like crazy.
Van Gaal felt that Zhong Cheng was really crazy this time, sending so many offensive players was the wind.
Although Leeds United sent out a lot of offensive players, Van Gaal believes that this is of no use. Chelsea must win, definitely!
"Yes, this is the starting lineup of both teams today. Chelsea has almost no changes. Leeds United has made earth-shaking changes. But this is also within our expectations. Leeds United must There must be changes, otherwise, they really have no chance in this game. It is also very good to gamble in this way, maybe it can create a miracle but it may not be certain!" said BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson. Said.
