The situation was very complicated.
Generally speaking, after the start of an important game, both sides will be more cautious.
But after the game started, the offensive and defensive rhythms of both teams changed very quickly, and it was hard to tell that this was a game that would decide the league championship.
In the 5th minute of the game, the situation on the field changed.
Sunderland's players were very rigorous in their positions and did not reveal any flaws, so Leeds United was passing the ball back in the backcourt, patiently looking for opportunities to pass the ball forward.
Suddenly, Sneijder, who was standing behind the center circle, waved for the ball, and Chiellini also made a timely pass and passed the ball over.
After receiving the ball, Sneijder didn't observe at all, and kicked the ball directly to the right backcourt of Sunderland, where Caldwell on the right was already sprinting towards the bottom line of Sunderland.
Under the sudden change of Leeds United, Sunderland did not panic, and the defenders also made up for it in time, and finally broke the ball out of the bottom line.
Leeds United got a corner kick!
Then Sneijder took the corner kick, and Kompany, who was ambushing at the back point, jumped high and smashed the ball into the goal of Sunderland with his big bald head.
"Vincent Kompany! Vincent Kompany! He finally scored his first goal after joining Leeds United before the end of the season, and in such a crucial game, Leeds United opened the scoring in just 5 minutes. I have to say, this is a wonderful start!" Since Leeds United is playing away this round, Ere Geddy, the exclusive live commentator of Leeds United, can only comment on this game in front of the TV in the studio. Just after Kompany scored, he also jumped up excitedly and yelled madly at the audience in front of the TV.
In sharp contrast to his excitement are the home fans in the Stadium of Light at this moment.
The moment the football hit the net, the originally noisy stadium was silent for 2 seconds, and then the warm greetings to the Leeds United players resounded throughout the stadium again.
At this time, many Leeds United fans have begun to celebrate in front of the TV, because this season, Leeds United has never had a record of scoring early and being overturned by the opponent in the end!
But the world of football is so mysterious.
In the 27th minute, Sunderland got a free kick in the frontcourt, and midfielder McMahon scored in one fell swoop, tying the score to 1:1.
In the 41st minute, Chiellini's low-level mistake in the penalty area gave Sunderland a penalty kick, and then McMahon scored twice, allowing Sunderland to enter the halftime break with a score of 2:1.
In the away locker room.
Li Shiguang was staring at his players with a gloomy face.
The two non-sports goals made him very angry. In his opinion, the consecutive victories and the strong desire to win the championship made his players a little unbalanced in their mentality. They began to worry about gains and losses. The penalty kick sent by Chiellini was the best example.
Obviously, he could block his position and let the opponent take the ball to the bottom line for processing, but his anxious mentality made him choose to kick in the penalty area, resulting in the current situation.
The Leeds United players sitting in their seats seemed to still not believe that they were behind, and looked at Li Shiguang with confused eyes.
Then Li Shiguang slammed the splint in his hand to the ground and roared: "Wake up! Wake up! We haven't won the championship yet! We are not qualified to look down on our opponents! We have only completed a trivial task to impact the Premier League! I still want the final league championship! Don't you want it?"
"Don't look at me like a coward, look at yourselves? You played a piece of shit in the last 40 minutes, do you know that? If we lose the championship we have worked hard for a year because of today's game, believe me, we will be sprayed to pieces by countless fans and countless media since we return to Leeds."
"Now, put away the confused look on your face like a child, cheer up, take a good rest for 10 minutes, and then go out to run, go out to fight, like a man! Okay!"
By the last sentence, Li Shiguang's throat had made a hoarse sound.
"Okay! Boss, we won't let you down!" Seeing Li Shiguang shouting so hard, Milner, the captain, also took the lead in responding to him.
····
After the halftime break, the two sides changed sides and continued the game.
At the beginning of the second half, Leeds United
Once again, they implemented their high-pressure tactics. As soon as Sunderland players got the ball, 2 or 3 white figures would rush over.
In the 69th minute, in Leeds United's offensive round, Milner passed the ball to Tevez who was pulling on the wing in the midfield. Facing the closed defense of two Sunderland players, Tevez suddenly accelerated and rushed over with the ball before the door was closed.
Then he ran all the way and approached Sunderland's penalty area with the ball.
Seeing that Tevez had entered his shooting range, Sunderland did not dare to neglect it. Immediately, a central defender came up to block his shooting route, but Tevez made an emergency stop, and before the defenders rushed over, he lifted the ball to the left back point of Sunderland.
Adebayo had been waiting there for a long time. When the ball was still in the air, he jumped high and headed the football. Sunderland's goalkeeper also hurried to move closer to him, trying to block Adebayo's shot.
Just when everyone thought Adebayo would head the ball, he made an unexpected decision. He headed the ball near the small penalty area.
Then Milner, who had quietly entered the penalty area, easily scored the ball into the empty goal.
After Leeds United scored, Ere Geddie's roar came out of the TV again: "Coooooooooooooooool! Milner! The captain of Leeds United! He stood up at the critical moment! He kicked Adebayo's pass into Sunderland's goal! 2:2, Leeds United equalized the score!"
After the restart, Sunderland's players were obviously a little impatient. Leeds United could accept a draw, but they couldn't. Only by winning could they retain the hope of winning the championship.
But with Milner's goal, the morale of the entire Leeds United team was raised again.
Under the command of Li Shiguang, they temporarily gave up the high-pressure strategy, and huddled in their own half, using zone defense to block Sunderland's attack.
Li Shiguang knew that Sunderland could only jump for more than 10 minutes at most. With this high-intensity running, their physical fitness would become worse and worse. What Leeds United had to do now was to wait for a chance to make a fatal blow!
As expected, in the 83rd minute, Sunderland made a pass error in the Leeds United half, which was accurately captured by Milner. He completed a wonderful steal by blocking the ball, and then did not stop the ball, and directly sent the ball to Tevez who had successfully countered the offside.
Tevez faced the goalkeeper alone and made it in one fell swoop. 3:2, Leeds United finally completed the reversal!
After Tevez scored, Li Shiguang on the sidelines could no longer hide his excitement. Amid the cheers of Ere Geddy, the farmer's three punches reappeared in the arena!
