Episode【245】: Arsenal’s Last Chance

In the 37th round of the 2008-2009 Premier League season, which was the penultimate round, Leeds United went away to challenge Everton.

Yes, Zhong Cheng led the Leeds United players to Liverpool.

After arriving in Liverpool, Liverpool fans held up banners along the way, madly criticizing Leeds United and cursing Leeds United people.

Yes, Leeds United's opponent in this game was not Liverpool, but Liverpool fans came out in full force to attack Leeds United.

Those banners they put up are just awesome!

Zhong Cheng also suffered, being teased, cursed and criticized by these Liverpool fans!

Liverpool fans took every opportunity to disgust the Leeds United fans. Even in front of the hotel where they were staying, the Liverpool fans quarreled with the Leeds United fans and almost got into a fight.

This surprised the media reporters. Is this the game between Leeds United and Liverpool? Why did Liverpool fans come out to help their arch-rivals Everton and yell at Leeds United fans?

When did Liverpool and Everton become so close?

Soon, the media reporters were confused again.

The Everton fans showed up, but they didn't appreciate the Liverpudlians. Instead, he stood with the Leeds United fans and madly angrily attacked the Liverpool fans.

The media reporters at the scene were all confused. What is going on?

When did Everton and Leeds United become so close to each other that they started to attack Liverpool together?

Originally, this game had nothing to do with Liverpool. This Liverpool man brought it upon himself and ran out to die!

These Liverpool people have nothing to do. At this time, shouldn't you go and cheer for Liverpool? It's everyone's fault to come here to make trouble.

What people didn't expect was that that night, there were several fights on the streets, and they were all arrested by the local police and taken to the police station. It was said that they were all fans of Liverpool and Leeds United.

After learning about this, everyone finally understood that Liverpool and Leeds United suddenly became mortal enemies. The relationship between Everton and Leeds United seems to be mainly due to the good relationship between Zhong Cheng and Moyes, and Everton fans can't stand the Liverpool fans, so they help Leeds United to madly attack the Liverpool fans!

However, in this game, Everton is still the enemy of Leeds United.

Every game now is very important for Leeds United. Now they have the same points as Arsenal and are temporarily ranked ahead of Arsenal on goal difference, but this is not safe. With the last two rounds of competition remaining, Zhong Cheng naturally didn't want any surprises to occur.

The fourth position in the Premier League is very important for Leeds United and must be won!

Therefore, even if the relationship with Everton is good, Leeds United will go all out.

Everton is currently ranked eighth in the league this season. It really has no chance. There is no hope of entering the European war and no worries of relegation. Therefore, Evertonians should be normal in this game. of.

In this game, Zhong Cheng played with all the main players, which showed the determination of Leeds United to win the game.

At the same time, Arsenal is also playing away from home today, but they are going to play against the Red Devils Manchester United. Arsenal is obviously trying to fight for the top four in the Premier League. Even if they are facing the leader Manchester United, they are also You want to fight your opponent.

This is a very critical moment for the Red Devils and Manchester United. They are currently ranked first in the Premier League, but they are only six points ahead of the next two teams. If they lose in the next two rounds, Manchester United will also lose this season. Premier League champions.

Of course, if Manchester United gets a draw in this round, they will be able to win the championship one game ahead of schedule.

Therefore, the Manchester United people must go all out in this game, and they want to win the championship.

Now the Premier League has entered a fierce stage, and countless media reporters are paying attention to these games.

Of course Zhong Cheng doesn't care about the previous games, these have nothing to do with them. The only thing Zhong Cheng cares about now is himself. As long as they make no mistakes at this time, they will definitely get fourth place in the Premier League this season.

Therefore, now Zhong Cheng doesn't care about other teams' games, he only cares about Leeds United's games.

Zhong Cheng deployed all his main players for this game just to win.

Although Everton has a good relationship with Leeds United, they have no intention of letting go. Moyes also lined up a full lineup and took this game seriously.

Leeds United fans feel that Evertonians are a bit unkind.

However, Zhong Cheng felt that it was nothing. What Leeds United wanted was not given by others, but obtained through their own efforts.

As soon as the game started, it seemed a bit boring.

Because both teams chose conservative tactics, both defensive counterattacks.

Leeds United's most mature tactic is defensive counterattack, and they are very good at it. The Everton team knew that Leeds United was very anxious now and was crazy about winning the game. They firmly believed that Leeds United would definitely attack, so they chose a defensive counterattack.

David Moyes is well aware of the situation and where loyalty lies.

Seeing Everton's formation and performance, Zhong Cheng shook his head helplessly. David Moyes really doesn't know how to let things go.

Zhong Cheng did not immediately let the Leeds United players attack wildly, but continued to observe to see if the Evertonians had made up their minds. Therefore, Leeds United still slowed down the pace of their attack.

At this point, the game naturally became extremely dull. Everton fans were almost falling asleep. How could the game be played like this?

Zhong Cheng nodded slightly on the sidelines. Twenty minutes had passed and the Everton team was still unmoved. It seemed that the Evertonians would not attack rashly. They were sure that Leeds United would attack crazily.

Zhong Cheng smiled helplessly, David Moyes has seized the life of Leeds United!

Yes, Leeds United must attack. A draw is not safe for Leeds United. Leeds United must win.

Therefore, in the 25th minute of the game, Zhong Cheng waved his hand, signaling the Leeds United players to go out and attack like crazy.

Although Leeds United's most mature tactic is defensive counterattack, it doesn't mean that Leeds United can't attack, to be honest. In the past few seasons, Zhong Cheng has been developing mature offensive tactics for Leeds United. Zhong Cheng knows very well that no team can dominate the world with one set of tactics.

On-the-spot changes are still very, very important!

Even the Cosmos Barcelona changed their tactics according to their opponents in some games that year, instead of using the same set of tactics as before.

From forward tactics and forward-less tactics in passing and controlling, Barcelona often switches. It seems to be the same passing and controlling of the ball, but the tactics are actually very different.

Therefore, Zhong Cheng will naturally not stick to this set of defensive counterattack tactics to the end.

Over the years, Zhong Cheng has also obtained a lot of training points for training offensive tactics from the [Super Football Training System]. Zhong Cheng has compiled some offensive tactics and routines. Therefore, the current offense of Leeds United is not what others imagine. weak.

Leeds United immediately attacked, and all the Evertonians on the scene were overjoyed. The Leeds United people took the bait.

From the Evertonian's point of view, if Leeds United's attack is equal to half the loss, Everton must win this game. At the same time, Everton fans gave David Moyes heartfelt applause. David Moyes is really amazing!

At this time, news came from another venue. Arsenal, playing away from home, led Manchester United 1-0 with Nicholas Bendtner's goal.

This surprised everyone. No one thought that the Arsenal team was so crazy!

This is the third time Arsenal has faced Manchester United in recent days. The first two times were in the semi-finals of the Champions League. They lost 0-1 in the first leg and 1-3 in the second leg. , Arsenal simply did not win against Manchester United.

Now in the third meeting in a short period of time, Arsenal unexpectedly leads Manchester United.

Yes, before the game, almost no media reporters were optimistic about Arsenal. They believed that the winner of this game would still be Manchester United.

But what everyone didn't expect is that Arsenal is now in the lead.

This news puts pressure on Leeds United. If Arsenal wins this game and Leeds United does not win, then Arsenal will surpass Leeds United and return to the top four in the Premier League. .

Therefore, the pressure on Leeds United players is very high now.

In this game, Leeds United has only one goal, and that is to win. It must win.

However, at the end of the first half, Everton actually scored!

This was an own goal by Leeds United. Patrick Evra, who was in the back post, originally made a tackle to clear the ball, but accidentally shoveled the football into his own goal. Leeds United fell behind 0-1.

All the Leeds United fans at the scene were stunned!

how so? Are Leeds United going to lose this game?

Many Leeds United fans at the scene couldn't accept this. At this time, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half of the game. Leeds United trailed Everton 0-1 away from home. On another venue, Arsenal led Manchester United 1-0.

This news is good news for Liverpool and Arsenal. As long as Manchester United loses, they have a chance to reverse Manchester United and reach the top of the Premier League.

The competition in the Premier League this season is really fierce. At this time, there are still so many teams that still have hope of winning the championship. They are really amazing.

This is also the most competitive league among the five major leagues in Europe!

Now Zhong Cheng's expression is very serious. The second half of the game is a battle to the death for Leeds United. Leeds United must go all out to win this game.

must!

Arsenal fans are very happy now. They have seen the hope of surpassing Leeds United. As long as they persist in the second half of the game and even score another goal from Manchester United, they can surpass Leeds United. .

Of course, all this depends on the attitude of Evertonians. If the Evertonians can't withstand Leeds United's onslaught, everything their Arsenal team has done will not make much sense, because they will still be suppressed by Leeds United.

For Arsenal, this should be considered the last chance. Because in the last round of the game, Leeds United's opponents were very weak, and it should be very difficult for Leeds United to lose.
