In this round of competition, there is a highlight in the Premier League, and that is Liverpool's home game against the league leader Manchester United.

Originally, Zhong Cheng hoped that the Liverpool team would be stronger and directly kill the Manchester United team, causing a small upset. But the Liverpool people did not fulfill Zhong Cheng's wish. They lost 0-1 at home to Manchester United. The top few in the Premier League, that is, only Liverpool lost. This round,

Therefore, the ranking of the Premier League is still the same now. The first place is Manchester United with 72 points, the second is Leeds United with 68 points, the third is Chelsea with 64 points, and the fourth is Arsenal. The team scored 57 points, the fifth Sheffield Wednesday team scored 55 points, and the sixth Liverpool team scored 50 points.

Yes, Manchester United became the team with more than 70 points for the first time this season.

The Manchester United team is really strong this season. It seems that Alex Ferguson is holding back his energy and moving forward crazily, vowing to win the Premier League championship this season.

Zhong Cheng faced Rodgers and said: "This season, it is really very, very difficult for Leeds United to win the Premier League championship. It can be seen that Manchester United is really going to be the best, until the end."

Rogers also sighed, the Manchester United team was too strong this season, and they didn't give the teams behind them any chance at all.

At this time, Zhong Cheng regretted a little, because they had seen a chance to surpass Manchester United. But after that death, they didn't seize the opportunity themselves and lost.

This season, Alex Ferguson has already won the best coach of the month.

This season, the Premier League is really very difficult to play.

There is still a while to play in the 30th round of this season, because there is a short offseason, and the national team match day is here again. However, during this time period, Leeds United have two games to play, one is the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, and the other is the FA Cup, the quarter-finals .

Therefore, at this time, the task of Leeds United is still very heavy.

First of all, Leeds United is waiting for work at Elland Road Stadium at home to meet PSV Eindhoven from the Netherlands.

Before the game, Zhong Cheng said to his players: "We lost to the opponent 0-1 in the first round. All the pressure in this game is on us. We must not only defeat the opponent, but also prevent the opponent from Goal because we couldn't let the opponent score away goals!"

Yes, it is not the end of the world to lose the first round 0-1, the second round is easy to come back. But it is absolutely impossible to score an away goal for the opponent, otherwise, Leeds United will be extremely passive.

The Leeds United players nodded in understanding.

To be honest, the players of Leeds United haven't played enough yet. They don't want to be eliminated so early. The task of Leeds United is to win the UEFA Champions League.

Of course, many people didn't believe it, thinking that this was just another joke from the Leeds United.

Leeds United wants to win the Champions League. This is simply a dream. Your Leeds United are still far behind.

At this time, Eindhoven came to the away game to face Leeds United.

In this game, Zhong Cheng has formed the best starting lineup so far, as follows:

Goalkeeper: Simon Mignolet

Back four [left to right]: Gareth Bale, Gary Cahill, Ivanovic and Gary Kelly

Single midfielder: Diaby

Three forwards [from left to right]: Darren Bent, Gourcuff and Shao Jiayi

Double striker: Nicolas Bendtner and Edinson Cavani Yes, some players have left the club to report for the national team. And some members of the national team can stay for a while and report a day or two later.

When the fans of Leeds United saw this starting lineup, their hearts were full of worries, and they were very scared. They feel that this lineup is really difficult to win. This lineup is just a substitute lineup for Leeds United.

Leeds United fans are cheering and praying for the Leeds United players.

After seeing Leeds United's starting lineup, Eindhoven is naturally very confident. They firmly believe that they can defeat Leeds United and advance to the quarter-finals of this season's UEFA Champions League.

Having said that, Eindhoven was still very cautious and cautious in the game, and did not underestimate Leeds United at all. So this game seemed a bit dull at the beginning. After all, Eindhoven is the leading side now, and it is not them who are in a hurry to change the score.

Therefore, when the fire came up, Eindhoven did not choose to attack.

The scene of this game was very, very dull, it didn't look like a life-and-death battle at all, and the fans of both sides were drowsy watching it.

Rogers came directly to Zhong Cheng's side and said, "Boss, the people of Eindhoven are very cunning. It seems that if we don't take the initiative to attack, they will spend this game with us until the end of the game!"

Zhong Cheng nodded slightly. He knew that Rogers was right. After all, the leading Eindhoven people can do nothing at all. But Leeds United can't, Leeds United must win.

Rogers is very anxious now. He hopes that the team can make changes as soon as possible and launch an offense. Because game time is very important to Leeds United, it must not be wasted like this.

Zhong Cheng shook his head slightly and said, "Don't be in a hurry, let's see. I want to see if Eindhoven's patience is really good?"

Rogers sighed, very helpless, how can he look at it at this time? Should we attack directly at this time?

On Eindhoven's side, the old gods were there, and they didn't pay attention at all. As long as there is no change in your Leeds United team, they will stick to it like this. It's best to do this until the end of the game. In this way, they can win this game at the least cost.

Eindhoven's head coach turned his head to look at Zhong Cheng from time to time, he was also curious, how long can Zhong Cheng endure?

At this time, the fans on both sides of the scene were very anxious and bored. How could this game be played like this? This is simply exhausting.

Yes, the game scene was too dull, and they were all speechless.

Zhong Cheng didn't take any action, just sat quietly on the sidelines. Zhong Cheng also ignored the Leeds United players who frequently turned their heads to look at Zhong Cheng on the pitch, and he just sat quietly.

The Leeds United fans couldn't sit still. They immediately jumped up excitedly, singing the Leeds United team anthem, to cheer for the Leeds United players, hoping that they can attack Go out and fight the PSV Eindhoven to the death.

However, Zhong Cheng still sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, and has no intention of asking about world affairs at all, as if he has become a monk.

Seeing Zhong Cheng's appearance, the head coach of Eindhoven was full of admiration. This guy's energy-raising skills and patience are really strong. If it were someone else, they would have been attacked by Zhong Cheng long ago and attacked frantically.

However, Eindhoven's head coach has been fooled by his reputation, he has a very clear mind, and now he is going to fight loyalty to see who has more patience.

In this way, the first half of the game ended so boringly.

Seeing the end of the first half, PSV's head coach exclaimed: "This lunatic Loya is really very human. I can't accept his patience! This guy is a man who does great things!"

However, the head coach of Eindhoven hopes that Zhong Cheng can continue like this. But he also knows that this is an extravagant hope, and they must be greeted by a storm in the second half of the game.

2. At this time, the fans of Leeds United were very satisfied. They hoped that Leeds United could attack frantically and fight Eindhoven to the end. Even if they lost, they would not be afraid. What they are afraid of is that the Leeds United will not even have the courage to fight.

During the intermission, Leeds United fans sang wildly, cheering for Leeds United,

Luo explained that he came to Zhong Cheng's side and asked, "Boss, what should we do in the second half of the game?"

Zhong Cheng didn't speak, just smiled and walked into the dressing room.

Just after the start of the second half, Leeds United launched a crazy attack.

Yes, just as the whistle sounded to start the game, Leeds United flocked to PSV Eindhoven's half like a tide. Although the head coach of the Eindhoven team reminded the Eindhoven players at halftime, they should pay attention to Leeds United's counterattack in the second half of the game, especially when the game has just started.

However, what they think of is one aspect, and whether they can do it is another aspect.

The whole half of the game was loose in the first half, and now it suddenly became tense, and they really couldn't react. Inertia and habit are good things. It took Zhong Cheng forty-five minutes to let the people of Eindhoven form this habit, and they really couldn't get rid of this habit all at once.

The head coach of Eindhoven immediately stood up and stared nervously at the stadium.

Gourcuff in the middle suddenly made a continuous change of direction and passed the defensive players in the middle, and then dribbled the ball into the penalty area of ​​the Eindhoven team. The defensive players in Eindhoven frantically rushed over. In an instant, there was a space in the restricted area.

Gourcuff poked his toe in a very secret way, and passed the football to the unguarded Nicholas Bendtner. Naturally, Nicholas Bendtner was not polite, and directly pushed the football to the goal. bottom corner.

One to zero, the total score was one to one, and Leeds United equalized the score.

The Elland Road stadium exploded in an instant, and all the Leeds United fans cheered excitedly, shouting Zhong Cheng's name in their mouths. It turned out that they were wrong about Zhong Cheng.

Eindhoven's head coach kept shaking his head. He had calculated everything, but he didn't calculate the habit. This is really a secret. The head coach of Eindhoven regretted it, but at this time he was still sensible, he waved a big hand, and the Eindhoven people attacked crazily.

In that case, he is completely looking for death, and the counterattack of Leeds United is very powerful.

It's a tie now, and it's not yet time for a deadlock. The Eindhoven people are holding their ground and playing a killing battle with Leeds United.

However, at this moment, Eindhoven himself made a mistake. When the ball was poured from the backcourt, the pass made a mistake, and Darren Bent from the wing directly grabbed the football and intercepted it.

Seeing this, the head coach of Eindhoven jumped up and shouted in horror: "Defense!"

Unexpectedly, Darren Bent kicked an arc directly on the wing and passed the football into the PSV Eindhoven penalty area. Nicolas Bendtner at the front of the penalty area became the cover, grabbing all the attention before the football leaked to the back.

Edinson Cavani, who was unguarded at the end, rushed up quickly without taking off, and directly slammed into the flying football, sending the football into the goal of PSV Eindhoven.

Two to zero, two to one on aggregate, Leeds United defeated PSV Eindhoven and successfully reached the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
