Therefore, the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League in the 2009-2010 season were all born. They are Lyon, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and Leeds United.

When the semi-finals were formed, the semi-finals also took place.

The top half is Lyon vs. Bayern Munich, and the bottom half is Leeds United vs. Inter Milan.

In other words, in the next UEFA Champions League semi-finals, Leeds United's opponent is Inter Milan. This is not good news, because Zhong Cheng clearly remembers that the UEFA Champions League champion this season in his previous life was Inter Milan.

Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan this season is really as powerful as a flying strike. Now they are making great progress in Serie A and the Italian Cup. It can be said that they are advancing on the third line, just like Leeds United.

Zhong Cheng still remembers that this season, Jose Mourinho pretended to be in the new international era.

Therefore, meeting Inter Milan at this time is indeed a very bad thing.

Compared with the other two teams, Inter Milan is indeed stronger.

However, Zhong Cheng also believes that the world now has changed a lot from the world in his memory. Inter Milan is very powerful, but Leeds United will definitely not be afraid of them. In this game, Leeds United The team is very confident.

After all, Leeds United's goal this season is to defend the Champions League title, so they will not be timid against any opponent. Otherwise, how can they win the championship?

However, Zhong Cheng is also relatively cautious. After all, the Inter Milan team is very strong. Leeds United must be careful not to give Inter Milan a chance to take advantage of them.

When seeing such a matchup, the Leeds United players also felt a little depressed, but they still believed in Leeds United. As long as Zhong Cheng is there, Leeds United will definitely win.

Leeds United fans have great confidence in Zhong Cheng.

But at this moment, Zhong Cheng was still very pleased. Because the Leeds United players are very serious and very active, and they showed a very good state in training. Zhong Cheng firmly believes that as long as this continues, there will be no big problem in finding Leeds United's treble this season.

Now Zhong Cheng is leading the Leeds United players in training, and the weekend league will soon be ushered in.

This weekend Leeds United will return to their home stadium to face Sunderland.

To be honest, finding an opponent is really not strong. They are currently ranked in the middle and lower reaches, and they are the kind of team that has no worries about relegation and no hope of European competition. Therefore, such a team has almost no desires and needs, and it is easier for Leeds United to deal with.

To be honest, when Zhong Cheng first accepted Leeds United, Leeds United's competitor was Sunderland.

Back then, the two teams were competing to the death in the English Champions League. In order to fight for promotion places and the British Championship, both teams tried their best.

In the end, Leeds United came out superior and won the final championship.

Of course, Sunderland also caused a lot of trouble for Leeds United, and Leeds United almost capsized in the gutter.

The Sunderland team that competed fiercely with Leeds United back then is really very different from Leeds United now. Leeds United won the Premier League title directly after being promoted that year, creating the Kaiserslautern Miracle in England.

Sunderland was trying to avoid relegation that year, but failed.

Later on, Sunderland became a veritable lifter, being promoted and relegated at times, and life was really bad.

It's not like Leeds United, which wins championships every year and even won the Champions League.

The status and treatment of these two teams are really the same as those in heaven and earth. At that time, Sunderland certainly would not have thought that Leeds United would become the one they looked up to a few years later.

Now Leeds United is going to play against Sunderland. Sunderland attaches great importance to this game. They still want to compete with Leeds United. They want to win this game. victory.

Of course, Zhong Cheng and Leeds United will not let them succeed.

Now Leeds United still needs points very much. After all, they are still overwhelmed by Chelsea. If they make mistakes, this season's Premier League championship will have almost nothing to do with them.

In this round of competition, Chelsea's opponent is not strong, it is Bolton.

Bolton and Sunderland have similar points, but Bolton is still slightly in danger, but as long as they don't lose all the subsequent games, Bolton will not be relegated.

However, at this time, Bolton still needs to be very cautious, as they do not want to be relegated.

Therefore, against Chelsea, Bolton will definitely have to fight against the opponent.

In this round of competition, Leeds United knows that Chelsea has a very high chance of winning, so he will not underestimate Sunderland. They will definitely go all out in this game.

Of course, Zhong Cheng also saved a few tricks and arranged a lineup of all main players and all substitutes to play this game. Zhong Cheng believed that he could defeat the opponent in this way.

However, after the game started, Leeds United still encountered some troubles.

Sure enough, there are no underdogs in the Premier League.

Sunderland caused chaos in the penalty area in the 19th minute of the first half, and then the center back from the back scored a header, unexpectedly leading Leeds United.

This surprised Zhong Cheng and excited the Chelsea people in front of the TV.

Chelsea people naturally hope that Leeds United can lose in this game, so that they can dominate the top spot of the Premier League.

The Leeds United players were not in a hurry. They attacked slowly and surrounded the defending Sunderland team. In the first half of the game, Leeds United created a lot of opportunities, but they failed to score Sunderland's goal.

But in the sixth minute of the second half, Leeds United scored.

The goal was scored by Gareth Bale, who has been in very good form recently. Gareth Bale shot directly from the front of the penalty area and sent the ball into the Sunderland goal to equalize the score.

In the 22nd minute of the second half, Leeds United took a corner kick, and the football flew quickly to the back point. Kompany jumped high and headed the ball into the goal, two to one.

Leeds United overtook the score and took the lead.

Chelsea people were naturally very speechless when they saw this. Sunderland was really too weak.

But fortunately, Leeds United did not score again after scoring this goal. Of course Leeds United wanted to score more goals and get more goal differentials, but Sunderland's defense was good and Leeds United had bad luck. In the end, Leeds United did not score a goal. .

Two to one, Leeds United reversed Sunderland and won the game.

Seeing this result, Zhong Cheng couldn't help but shake his head. This game ended like this. It seems that Chelsea is about to widen the gap again. After all, Bolton is not strong, and it is easier for Chelsea to defeat them with a big score.

This game was played on the same day as Leeds United's game. Zhong Cheng sat at his home to watch this game because Leeds United had a holiday the next day.

Zhong Cheng watched this game in front of the TV. To be honest, Zhong Cheng originally thought that Chelsea would win a big victory. But what Zhong Cheng didn't expect was that, perhaps due to the pressure of relegation, Bolton Wanderers shrunk in this game and were very tenacious.

In the first half of the game, Chelsea shot thirteen times but failed to score Bolton's goal.

Bolton's defense also surprised Zhong Cheng. It was too strong.

The second half of the game was almost a replica of the first half. Chelsea attacked like crazy and surrounded Bolton's goal, but Bolton's defense was really great. Zhong Cheng was stunned when he saw it. Is Bolton's defense so good?

If Bolton had defended like this before, why would they have achieved this?

However, there are times when great defense is revealed. In the second half of the second half, Bolton's players had big physical problems. Chelsea's offense became more and more threatening. In Zhong Cheng's opinion, Bolton still couldn't hold on.

Sure enough, in the 41st minute of the second half, Chelsea's Drogba met a cross from Malouda on the wing in the middle of the penalty area. He jumped high, shook his head and smashed the football into the goal. Bolton Wanderers goal.

Chelsea relied on Drogba's goal to beat Bolton Wanderers 1-0.

Seeing this, Zhong Cheng exhaled slightly. The Bolton team had done them a big favor. In this round of matches, both teams defeated their opponents by one goal. Therefore, the goal difference between the two teams is still one, with Leeds United trailing Chelsea by one.

Therefore, Leeds United were not widened. Zhong Cheng was finally relieved.

However, after watching this game, Zhong Cheng was under a lot of pressure. Chelsea is difficult to deal with, and Leeds United will really have great difficulties facing them in the following leagues.

However, Zhong Cheng himself is very confident. He firmly believes that this season's Premier League championship belongs to their Leeds United team.

Of course, with the current situation, Leeds United cannot have any Pine Creek.

After taking the leave the next day, Zhong Cheng became even more strict with the Leeds United players. Zhong Cheng hopes that the Leeds United players will work hard for another month, because there is only one month of games left in this season. Fortunately, this month, Leeds United can usher in a bright future.

Zhong Cheng kept feeding the Leeds United players chicken soup, hoping that the Leeds United players would go all out.
