Football: Rebirth 04, I Create a Black Shop in Football

The new season is coming to an end.

With the end of this round of the league, Liverpool is the only injured player among the Premier League BIG5.

They were defeated cleanly by Manchester United at Old Trafford with a score of 2-0 in the Premier League Red Derby. After defeating Liverpool, Ferguson also saved some face in the media after losing to Li Shiguang in the last game.

However, what attracted more attention was Leeds United's big win over Manchester City.

In the past half month, Li Shiguang first criticized the English Football Association, then declared at a press conference that the goal of this season was to win the Premier League title, and then had a scandal with Shakira. In addition, Leeds United was not in good shape last month. This made him, who was already at the cusp of the storm, receive criticisms such as not focusing on the club or being shameless, and that he had no chance of winning the league title from Manchester United or Chelsea. In addition to the local media in Leeds, many media in other cities were waiting to see the jokes of him and Leeds United after this game.

However, a hearty 4:0 shattered the dreams of these media.

The day after the game, Norman Hunter, who had not published a column for a long time, wrote on his Twitter: "Leeds United has been on the right track, just like they did last year, they caught up after entering October and finally won the Champions League! You media who criticized Li seem to have overlooked one thing, that the promises Li made in public since his debut were finally fulfilled! Look at the offensive power shown by Leeds United in these two games, the score of only 4 to 0 is far from their limit. I think if Li can make more reasonable choices in the event, Leeds United has a great chance of making a breakthrough this season!"

Perhaps as Norman Hunter said, Li Shiguang must make reasonable choices in the schedule of the entire season.

Three days later.

Li Shiguang and Ferguson met again, but this time in the League Cup.

Before the game, there were also Manchester media who promoted this game as Manchester United's revenge battle to try to create an atmosphere.

But Li Shiguang, who unexpectedly won the last game, was determined to give up the fight for the League Cup. Not only did he send out a full substitute lineup for this game, he even told everyone in the locker room not to lose too badly.

But to his surprise, because Manchester United performed well in the league and the Champions League this season, the old Sir Alex Ferguson had the same idea as him, and even selected several youth training children to play in the League Cup.

But in the end, Li Shiguang got what he wanted. In the second half, Manchester United caused chaos in the Leeds United penalty area through a corner kick. Mills wanted to clear the ball in a panic, but he kicked the ball into Silva's leg and bounced into his own net, giving Manchester United an own goal.

In the end, Manchester United also successfully advanced to the next round of the League Cup with this own goal.

After the game, the TV broadcast gave the camera to the two coaches who were shaking hands.

Interestingly.

Ferguson, who won the game, had a sullen face, and his eyes looked at Li Shiguang with a bit of helpless murderous intent.

Li Shiguang, who lost the game, smiled brightly, as if he had won the championship...

After completely getting rid of the useless League Cup, the Leeds United players had enough rest time.

In the last week of October, they went to the away game and won Fulham by 1 goal, winning three consecutive league games.

Four days later, on the first day of November.

Leeds United ushered in their key battle in the Champions League group stage.

That is to play against Bordeaux at home. If Leeds United can get all 3 points in this game, they will rush into the top 16 of this season's Champions League from Group C in advance!

That night, the Elland Road Stadium was packed with more than 50,000 spectators waiting to witness this exciting moment. After all, the last time Leeds United entered the Champions League knockout stage was 6 years ago. At that time, the powerful Leeds United had been completely destroyed by Ridsdale's various operations, but the appearance of Li Shiguang gave them hope again!

Li Shiguang and his players did not disappoint the fans who came to watch the game.

He played with all his main players in this game. From the moment of kick-off, Leeds United launched a crazy attack. However, the progress of the game was not as smooth as Li Shiguang imagined. They encountered very tenacious resistance from Bordeaux.

Until the end of the first half, Leeds United

Kompany scored a goal from a corner kick and took the lead.

But this goal did not make Li Shiguang feel too happy, because Kompany sprained his ankle when he landed after completing the header, which forced Li Shiguang to replace him with Silva during the halftime break.

However, after the start of the second half, Bordeaux, who tried to equalize the score, launched a counterattack, which gave Leeds United an opportunity.

In the 66th minute, Leeds United quickly counterattacked and passed the ball to Torres in the frontcourt. After breaking into the penalty area, Torres shot from the right side to help Leeds United score another goal.

Just 4 minutes later, Torres, who was in good form today, broke through Bordeaux's right rib again, and then calmly lobbed the ball in the face of Bordeaux's attacking goalkeeper, completing his second goal and helping Leeds United lock in the victory.

The score of 3:0 made Bordeaux's players completely give up resistance, and they were unable to score until the last moment of the game.

As the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the fans cheered wildly.

After 6 years, Leeds United finally made it to the knockout stage of the Champions League again...
