Episode【502】: It Was Zhong Cheng Who Made Leeds United a Success

The thirty-fifth round of the Premier League is over, and top-ranked Chelsea and Leeds United lost at the same time. This is really rare, but they are still the top two.

Chelsea still have seventy-seven points, as do Leeds United.

However, Chelsea is still one goal ahead of Leeds United on goal difference, so Chelsea is still ranked first in the Premier League. Leeds United ranked second.

The gap between the two teams is still very, very small, but Chelsea still dominates Leeds United. More importantly, the time left for Leeds United is getting less and less, with only the last three games left.

Yes, only the last three rounds of the Premier League are coming to an end.

Leeds United must surpass Chelsea in the last three rounds in order to win the Premier League title this season.

Of course, this doesn't look very difficult, because they only need to score one more goal than Chelsea.

Currently ranked third in the Premier League is the Red Devils Manchester United, with 73 points. There is only a four-point gap between Chelsea and Leeds United. The gap is not big, but there is an insurmountable gap.

Yes, with nine points to go from three games, Manchester United looks to have a chance to surpass Chelsea and Leeds United. However, media reporters and fans did not believe that there would be such a miracle.

After all, it is almost unrealistic for Leeds United and Chelsea to lose at least two of the three hottest rounds at the same time.

Therefore, Manchester United should be the team closest to the first group this season.

Then there is Leyton Orient, whose points are 72 points, only one point less than Manchester United.

In fourth place is Sheffield Wednesday with 70 points. Ranked fifth is Arsenal, with 69 points. Yes, Arsenal lost in this round and fell behind.

This is also a very big blow to the Arsenal team. Seeing that the season is coming to an end, and finally something like this happened, it seems that the Arsenal team does not want to qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season.

The subsequent rankings have almost no impact on the competition between the previous teams.

Now everyone is paying attention to who can win the Premier League championship this season and who can qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season. This is a very fierce competition.

And Zhong Cheng has now led the Leeds United players to fly to Italy.

Yes, Leeds United will fly to Italy to face Inter Milan in the first leg of this season's Champions League semi-finals.

At this time, media reporters are naturally not optimistic about Leeds United.

Leeds United's recent results are actually relatively poor. They even lost to Liverpool in the round that just ended, showing their decline.

Now Leeds United fans are waiting for this game. They firmly believe that Leeds United can win this game. They go to support Leeds United away from home.

Leeds United's opponent, Inter Milan, is very strong, quite strong.

Inter Milan is making rapid progress in the domestic league and domestic cup competitions this season. It is simply unstoppable. Many people claim that Inter Milan will reappear in the international era this season.

Jose Mourinho is really great. He has built Inter Milan into such a super team. Now Leeds United has almost no way to compete with Inter Milan.

Before this game, Inter Milan's head coach Jose Mourinho said this: "Crazy Loya is a super genius, and his team is super strong. What I want to say here Yes, this game will be a very, very difficult game for us at Inter Milan.”

Jose Mourinho wasn't lying, he really thought so.

Zhong Cheng’s Leeds United team has proven all this in the past few years. This Leeds United team can be the most successful team in European football and even world football from 2004-2010. Look at what they have obtained Honors, global influence, and new stars cultivated...

Leeds United has done an outstanding job in almost every aspect, and these are all due to Zhong Cheng.

Zhong Cheng really single-handedly brought Leeds United to glory and prosperity.

Now think about it, that young and frivolous young man suddenly accepted the words of Leeds United, "I want to build Leeds United into a giant club", how heroic and inspiring it was.

At this time, who else dares to question Zhong Cheng?

To be honest, Jose Mourinho also admires Zhong Cheng very much. This guy has created so many pioneering achievements at such a young age. He is simply the protagonist of this world.

Jose Mourinho feels that if Zhong Cheng continues like this, it will be a tragedy for many wealthy clubs in Europe, because they have encountered a devil-level head coach who also serves as chairman. Zhong Cheng alone has the final say in this club. He can give orders boldly and do everything.

Jose Mourinho is really envious.

Now, even though Jose Mourinho has obtained very, very great rights in Inter Milan, he still feels a little constrained. There are really too many constraints around him.

When will I be able to be so unrestrained like Zhong Cheng?

Jose Mourinho is really looking forward to this day.

However, what Jose Mourinho has to consider now is the game in front of him.

This game is very important for both teams, and no one wants to lose. Especially the home team Inter Milan. If the home team can't beat their opponents, then what's the point of playing away games?

Of course, in this game, Leeds United's goal is to defeat the opponent and then score more away goals.

Yes, away goals are also very important at this time.

Often, when two strong teams meet at this time, away goals speak for themselves.

Therefore, Leeds United's task now is not only to win, but to get more away goals.

Of course, Inter Milan will not let the Leeds United people succeed easily.

The defense of Jose Mourinho's Inter Milan is very strong. Originally, Jose Mourinho's tactics were relatively conservative. He also came to Italy to study for a few years, so his defense is naturally very proficient. It is almost impossible for Leeds United to score more goals.

Jose Mourinho is very confident in this aspect.

Jose Mourinho also gave the Inter Milan players more confidence. Leeds United's tactics are actually somewhat similar to theirs. But their tactics are more high-pressing, unlike Leeds United who just shrink down and defend in the half court.

Inter Milan presses more high in the frontcourt, and after stealing the ball, it can launch a quick counterattack on the spot, making it impossible for the opponent to parry even if they want to.

Leeds United, on the other hand, defended in the midfield and backcourt, and then after stealing the ball, they relied on the midfielder's brain to dispatch the pass, sending a fatal threat to the ball, and then used the speed and breakthrough of the two wings to tear apart the opponent's defense.

Many media believe that this game will be a very boring game, because both teams attach great importance to defense, and the process of this game must be very boring.

However, what everyone did not expect was that this game was very fierce from the beginning.

Because the tactics of both teams seemed to have undergone some changes, and they both attacked.

It can be seen that Zhong Cheng and Jose Mourinho both thought of going together, both wanting to break the fixed image and catch the other party off guard.

No, the two of them installed it directly.

Jose Mourinho and Zhong Cheng's eyes lit up and they were shocked. I really didn't expect that the other party's ideas coincided with his.

Now, this game becomes interesting.

On the court, the players on both sides did not defend and started attacking directly. The fans and media reporters on the scene were stunned as both sides came and went. Oh my god, what happened today? Don't you think this should be a very boring game? Why was the fight so intense from the beginning?

Many media reporters at the scene were slapped in the face and their faces were swollen.

At this moment, Leeds United launched a very fast attack on the court. Cristiano Ronaldo on the wing and full-back Kyle Walker worked seamlessly together, making breakthroughs one after another.

Then Kyle Walker suddenly swept the football across the middle, and the football rolled to the feet of Mesut Ozil who followed up in the middle of the penalty area. Mesut Ozil pretended to shoot with a kick, but suddenly flicked his ankle and pushed the football diagonally. The football quickly penetrated into the ribs of Inter Milan's penalty area.

Inter Milan's defense line was a bit loose. At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo had already stepped in. It was too late for Inter Milan's defensive players to tighten the defense line.

With a bang, Cristiano Ronaldo blasted the ball into Inter Milan's goal with a heavy kick. Leeds United took a 1-0 lead.

Seeing this, many media reporters at the scene covered their faces with their hands. They were really shameless.

Before the game, they swore that it was impossible for the Leeds United players to break through Inter Milan's goal. This time, the Leeds United people broke through their opponent's goal. It was really a shame.

Jose Mourinho was also stunned. He didn't expect that the game would turn out like this. Why did Leeds United score a goal all of a sudden? This is not a good thing. They have already conceded an away goal.

Jose Mourinho immediately roared loudly, reminding the Inter Milan players to attack.

In the 30th minute of the first half, Inter Milan forward Eto'o received a pass from midfielder Sneijder, then stopped the ball with his chest and volleyed directly 30 meters away from the goal. Football is The shot flew quickly towards the Leeds United goal.

Zhong Zheng jumped out and hit the football, but the football still flew into the goal.

Zhong Zheng tried his best on this ball, but still couldn't intercept it. This ball was really powerful and heavy.

Inter Milan equalized the score and continued to attack crazily. Obviously, Inter Milan wants to kill Leeds United at home, and their attack is very fierce.

The second half of the game had just begun, and Inter Milan got a corner kick opportunity.

Inter Milan's full-back Sagna made a direct arc and sent the football into the Leeds United penalty area. In the penalty area, Eto'o missed the ball from the back and sent the football into the Leeds United goal.

At this time, Inter Milan led the score 2-1.
