Episode [192]: Leeds United Have Given up the Game
A difficult victory over Arsenal is nothing to boast about for Leeds United, and they don't have the time to pay attention to these things now. All their attention is now on the upcoming Champions League quarter-final second leg.
This game is very important for Leeds United.
If Leeds United cannot beat Liverpool with a score of more than 3-0 in this game, Leeds United will be eliminated.
This score is very difficult for Leeds United.
At this time, the outside media are reporting this game one after another, accumulating strength for this game, attracting more people to pay attention to this game.
The outside media have used "garbage time" to describe this game. They said that this game is already tasteless and a shame to discard it. At this time, Leeds United has no way to recover. Even if Liverpool lose in this game, it is impossible to lose the qualification for promotion.
Moreover, from the perspective of the outside media, Liverpool should win this game.
Because, Leeds United just had a deadlock with Arsenal in the league, and Leeds United played almost all the main players. Obviously, Leeds United has already focused on the league. This is a performance of Leeds United giving up the Champions League.
Yes, at this time, media reporters have claimed that Leeds United's lunatic Loya has given up the UEFA Champions League, and now he is going to smash Manchester United.
Judging from the scores of their first leg against Liverpool and the starting lineup for the just-concluded match against Arsenal, this can show that Leeds United's focus has been placed on the league.
Many fans also think that what the media reporters say is very moral.
Leeds United now have no way to recover. They will definitely give up the Champions League and devote all their attention to the league. Of course, fans also think that Leeds United has no chance in the league because Manchester United is too strong this season.
Anyway, at this time, the media reporters are not optimistic about Leeds United, they all think that Liverpool will easily win this game.
Moreover, some media reporters predicted that in this game, Leeds United will play all substitutes. This is a garbage time game.
At this time, media reporters also flocked to Benitez and interviewed Benitez.
When Benitez faced the media reporters, he said: "I don't think Leeds United will give up this game. They will definitely go all out. I am very proud of Loya. Therefore, we will never take this game lightly. Even if Leeds United gave up this game, our Liverpool team will not take it lightly. We will not let any accident happen!"
Yes, Benitez is so cautious!
Many media reporters and fans think that Benitez is too cautious, but more people admire Benitez very much. Under such circumstances, he still maintains a clear mind and does not drift. Benitez really deserves to be a cup master.
Benitez also said: "Although we took a lot of lead in the first round, in my opinion, this score is still not safe. Only if we can score one or two more goals in this game can we really win this game. Therefore, our Liverpool team will not stay in this game! No matter what players they send, we will definitely go all out!"
The fans of the Liverpool team gave Benitez applause one after another. Benitez is really amazing, and they admired him very much.
Gerrard, a member of the Liverpool team, was interviewed by media reporters. He said: "Our coach is very correct. No matter what the opponent is, we will definitely go all out in this game. Because our Liverpool team does not allow any accidents to happen, we must win this game!"
Gerrard also said: "Yes, our coach is a very powerful, very principled and capable person. With him leading us, we will definitely advance to the final and win the UEFA Champions League again!"
Many players of the Liverpool team were interviewed by media reporters. These players all supported and praised Benitez.
At this time, the Liverpool team looked very united. All the players were on the same line, waiting for this game, looking forward to defeating Leeds United in this game and advancing to the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
The fans of the Liverpool team are supporting the Liverpool team on the Internet at this time. During the season, they claimed that there is no need to compare this game at all, and Leeds United is finished.
Now the outside media are also reporting like this, and almost all the media are supporting Liverpool.
The fans of Leeds United were naturally very upset. They crazily criticized the media and the Liverpool team, and criticized these people for their arrogance. One day they will have to pay a price, a tragic price.
These Leeds United fans naturally suffered wild criticism from Liverpool fans, many media reporters and other fans. Claiming that Leeds United guys are a group of guys who love to fantasize and live in dreams, mocking Leeds United fans one after another...
At this time, media reporters flocked to Leeds to interview Leeds United.
Leeds United player Frank Ribery was interviewed by media reporters. He said: "Yes, we lost 0-3 to Liverpool in the first round, but that doesn't mean anything? To be honest, we have seen such a situation in Leeds United, and we still see it often, and we have seen it a lot!"
The media reporters all gasped, don't say it, Ribery is right, Leeds United have also experienced such a situation, and have completed the Jedi counterattack many times, a super counterattack. Not long ago, didn't they kill Arsenal in a desperate situation?
The media reporters were shocked. Could it be that this time they still want to continue the previous script and kill Liverpool? No no no, this is absolutely impossible, Liverpool is not Arsenal.
Moreover, Benitez is an expert in cup games, and he will never allow such a situation to happen.
Ribery continued: "Of course, this game is indeed very difficult for our Leeds United team. But we Leeds United people are never afraid of difficulties. Our Leeds United team is very well prepared for this game. We firmly believe that our Leeds United team can win!"
The media reporters all curled their lips, what the hell, they were almost fooled by this guy.
Leeds United had obviously given up on the game, and this guy actually came out to make noises. He was really pissed off.
The media reporters all stared at Ribery jokingly, and many people's eyes were full of ridicule.
Ribery continued: "We Leeds United will not give up any game. In this game, we will definitely fight Liverpool to the end, for sure!"
The media reporters obviously wouldn't believe Ribery's words, and Leeds United had given up the game.
The media reporters flocked to Leeds United's head coach Zhong Cheng again!
Looking at these media reporters, Zhong Cheng finally accepted their interview, but Zhong Cheng hadn't accepted their interview for a while.
Zhong Cheng said: "Yes, the current situation is indeed very bad for our Leeds United team, and it can even be said to be a desperate situation. But before the game starts, no one can guarantee what will happen in this game?"
The media reporters frowned slightly. What does the crazy guy mean that Leeds United did not give up on this game? The media reporters shook their heads one after another. They didn't believe it, and they firmly didn't believe it.
At this time, Zhong Cheng continued: "Liverpool is a super-strong team. We are going to their home game now, which is a very big difficulty for us. And now that we are still behind 0-3, the difficulty is even greater. Therefore, this game is a desperate situation for us. We can counterattack in a desperate situation. We don't know. But we will know one thing, that is, we will not give in, let alone give up. In this game, we will definitely fight Liverpool to the end!"
The faces of the media reporters became more puzzled. Did Leeds United really not give up the game?
However, the media reporters still shook their heads frantically, they firmly did not believe that Leeds United did not give up this game.
Zhong Cheng finally said: "Our Leeds United team will not give up any game. Even if we are on the bench, we will not give up the game. We believe in our substitute players. Yes, our Leeds United team's substitute players are also super strong players!"
Hearing this, the media reporters suddenly realized, and said that instead of giving up the game, Nima will be on the bench for this game. What's the benefit of being stubborn?
The media reporters looked down on Zhong Cheng one after another, this guy really wanted to save face and suffer.
Zhong Cheng ignored these media reporters, smiled slightly, turned and left directly.
The next day, Zhong Cheng led Leeds United to Liverpool, where they were going to challenge Liverpool.
This is the second round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals this season. This is a very important game, and Leeds United must win by a big score.
Before the game, the Anfield stadium was overcrowded, and Liverpool fans came to see Leeds United being abused. The Liverpool people are here for revenge today, they just want to severely humiliate Leeds United.
At this time, the devil atmosphere in Anfield Stadium is already very hot!
Fans at Anfield sang Liverpool's anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone". Come to give the fans of Leeds United a show of authority and let them know who the owner of this place is?
The Liverpool fans were very excited, jumping excitedly one by one, as if they had already won the victory at this time, they jumped up and down in the stadium, mocking Leeds United, and even in the stands, there were a lot of Liverpool fans holding up the fiery red words "zero to three", humiliating the fans of Leeds United.
Some Liverpool people even programmed this into a song, singing it crazily in the stands, humiliating Leeds United. This filled the hearts of the Leeds United fans who came from afar, cursing the Liverpool fans frantically.
The game hadn't started yet, but the smell of gunpowder was already very strong.
This made the security personnel at the scene feel a lot of pressure. The fans of the two teams will not directly fight in this game. If this is the case, then they are quite busy today.
