On April 1, 2008, Leeds, England, the weather was fine!
Elland Road Stadium is where countless fans gather. They gather here to support their team, because today, a very important game will be held here, which is the first leg of this season's UEFA Champions League quarter-finals.
Yes, the first leg is home to Leeds United!
Today, more than 20,000 Leeds United fans came to the scene, but there are still many, many Leeds United fans who have not received tickets. Leeds United fans are very concerned about this game. They expect the team to defeat Liverpool and win this game to avenge last season!
Yes, it was at this stage last season that Leeds United lost to Liverpool and were eliminated.
They met again this year, and the Leeds United are obviously here for revenge!
The fans of Leeds United are very confident about this. Now Leeds United is in a very, very good state. If they can't win Liverpool, it will be false, very false!
Yes, look, Leeds United are now on a 28-game winning streak in the Premier League!
How awesome is this state?
Such a Leeds United team is in such a good state, will they not be able to win Liverpool? Obviously this is impossible, Leeds United must win!
Therefore, countless Leeds United fans wanted to pour into Elland Road Stadium to witness this moment.
However, the Elland Road Stadium is too small, too small to accommodate too many fans, and cannot satisfy the desire of Leeds United fans to watch the game live.
The results of Leeds United have been very good recently, and fans from many surrounding towns and cities have been attracted by them and become fans of Leeds United. Leeds United fans have grown geometrically, and Elland Road has really not changed at all.
This stadium is really unable to meet the development of Leeds United!
And in Zhong Cheng's plan, Leeds United must have a bigger and more modern home stadium if they want to become a giant. And this home stadium is currently under construction, and the progress is very fast. It will be almost completed and renovated by the end of this season, and it will be able to be put into use next season.
Now there are a lot of Leeds United fans going to the main stadium located in Piston. This stadium is really much bigger than Elland Road. It is said that it can accommodate more than 60,000 fans. There is also room for additional stands. In other words, if the stands are added, Leeds United's new home stadium will accommodate about 80,000 people.
This stadium is already very, very big.
However, Zhong Cheng believes that the current stadium does not need such a large capacity, so the current capacity is set at more than 60,000 people.
Now the stadium has begun to take shape, and the overall shape has come out. From a distance, it really looks like a white rose, and even a bit like a crown!
Now the fans of Leeds United are frantically discussing the name of the new stadium. Some people claim that she calls it the Rose Bowl Stadium, some call it the Crown Stadium, some call it the Piston Stadium, and some people call it the Loya Stadium...
Now Leeds United fans are talking about this matter on the Internet, and they can't wait to enter this new stadium immediately to feel this new stadium!
Of course, now Leeds United fans are either sitting in Elland Road or standing in the square outside Elland Road, staring at the big screen and watching quietly.
At this time, there were nearly 10,000 fans of the Liverpool team who came from afar, in fact, there were only five or six thousand people after that. But even if there are only five or six money people, this is already a very large group for the expeditionary force. It can be seen that Liverpool attaches the same importance to this game, and it still attaches great importance to it!
Now the Liverpool fans are singing the Liverpool team anthem in the stadium, cheering for the Liverpool players.
To be honest, the Liverpool players are very confident. They think that Liverpool is the nemesis of Leeds United. They eliminated Leeds United last season, and they will also eliminate Leeds United this season.
Today, they all came here to witness, that is, to watch Liverpool knock out Leeds United.
Now if the Liverpool team can eliminate Leeds United, this is also a very, very amazing thing, and the Liverpool team will also be favored by countless people.
Because at this time, Leeds United are in really good condition. They are really hot in the Premier League. They have won 28 consecutive victories, which is simply abnormal!
Liverpool fans are united, they firmly believe that Liverpool can beat Liverpool!
Liverpool people are full of confidence!
━━━Separation line━━━
"Friends from the audience, friends from the fans, hello everyone! This is BBC Sports, and I am Mark Laurenson." The BBC also broadcast the game live today, and now Mark Laurenson is sitting in the commentary booth of the Elland Road Stadium.
To be honest, sitting here, Mark Lawrenson also felt a little aggrieved. He also felt that the stadium was a bit small, and the commentary seats were all very small. It was time for Leeds United to change the stadium.
"Fans and friends, hello everyone, we are the Eddie Gray you are familiar with! Today Mark and I will explain this game to you." Eddie Gray will not miss the Leeds United game.
"What we bring to you today is the first match of the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals this season. The two sides are Liverpool and Leeds United from the Premier League. Yes, this is a civil war in the Premier League!" Eddie Gray said.
The fans at the scene immediately screamed excitedly, all waiting for the start of the game.
"To be honest, looking at this matchup table, I thought I was commenting on last year's UEFA Champions League. It was still Liverpool vs. Leeds United, and it was still Manchester United vs. Roma... UEFA really knows how to play it!" Obviously, this is Eddie Gray expressing his dissatisfaction, mocking UEFA!
Mark Lawrenson said: "This is indeed quite a coincidence, but let's talk about today's game. The strength of these two teams is very good. In the Premier League, Leeds United is the giant of the Premier League this season. They have now won 28 consecutive victories and their points have reached 84 points. Many times, this point can win the Premier League championship!"
Eddie Gray also said the same: "Yes, Leeds United are now very close to the Premier League; the league title is very close. Obviously, their attention is on the UEFA Champions League. This time against Liverpool, Leeds United definitely want to win directly!"
The fans in front of the TV all thought this way. Leeds United definitely wanted to win this game.
"Okay, at this point the players from both sides have come out of the player tunnel, now let's introduce to you the starting rosters of both sides today!" Mark Lawrenson said immediately.
The fans of both sides immediately gave thunderous applause to the players of both sides, and welcomed the arrival of the players of both sides!
At this time, the two commentators of the BBC are introducing the starting lineup of the two teams. The starting lineup of both sides today is as follows: Visiting team: Liverpool, head coach: Benitez, formation: 4-4-2
Goalkeeper: Dudek
Back four [left to right]: John Reaser, Skrtel, Agger and Steve Finnan
The midfield four [from left to right]: Zenden, Mascherano, Xabi Alonso and Gerrard
Forwards: Crouch and Fernando Torres
This is the starting list of the Liverpool team today, and there are still some differences from usual.
In the goalkeeper's position, the old goalkeeper Dudek has actually given way to the young Reina, who is Liverpool's chief goalkeeper this season. But Reina was recently injured and has been recovering from his injuries. Today, he didn't even make the bench, so Dudek started.
On the defensive line, Liverpool's Dinghaishenzhen Carragher also did not start, because he couldn't even make the squad. Because Carragher is currently in suspension, they have no way to appear in this game, so the young Skrtel and Agger replaced him.
The change in the forward line came from the left wing. Today's starter is Cenden, a veteran in his thirties. He appeared in the starting list. This is beyond the expectations of many people, because at the beginning of this season, Zenden's transfer was very hot.
At that time, Zenden was not reused in the Liverpool team and thought about leaving the Liverpool team. In the summer, he even negotiated with the French Marseille Club, and Zenden also went to the Marseille Club for a physical examination. But I don't know what happened in the end. Cenden returned to the Liverpool team and failed.
This season, he played very little game time. He suddenly started in such an important game today.
On the front line is the combination of Crouch and Fernando Torres, one high and one fast. People like Dirk Dirk and Babel are sitting on the bench waiting for an opportunity, maybe they will play!
Home team: Leeds United, head coach: Zhong Cheng, formation: 4-1-3-2
Goalkeeper: Zhong Zheng
Back four [from left to right]: Patrick Evra, Kompany, Pique and Bakary Sagna
Single midfielder: Seydu Keita
Three forwards [left to right]: Franck Ribery, Luka Modric and Joaquin
Forwards: Luca Toni and Edinson Cavani
This is the starting list of Leeds United today. This is the starting list of all main players of Leeds United.
Of course, at this time, many people will think of Mohamed Sissoko. This guy is really unlucky. He didn't lose to anyone, he lost to injuries!
At the most critical time, he was seriously injured and gave up the position of the main force to Sedu Keita!
At this time, Mohamed Sissoko actually had the idea of leaving Leeds United at the same time. It is said that at this time Juventus and Barcelona clubs both took a fancy to him and seemed to want to introduce him.
Now Zhong Cheng has not considered this matter, this matter must be considered after the end of the whole season!
Now all of Zhong Cheng's attention is devoted to the game in front of him. This game is very, very important. Leeds United must be sure to be safe and must win!
Players from both sides stood on the court and took their positions, waiting for the referee's whistle.
beep!
The game officially begins!
