Tyrant of green giants, signed Guardiola at the beginning

Every country in the top European football leagues has giant clubs.

But there are also classes among wealthy families.

The reason why AC Milan and Real Madrid belong to the top giants is that they have won the most honors in the Champions League in the past half century and created their own era.

The first UEFA Champions League, which started in 1955, has only just passed its 50th year.

But Real Madrid has won 9 Champions League titles!

Although the initial five consecutive championships and a total of six Champions League championships won in the first ten years were criticized for not attracting the strongest teams in the major leagues at the beginning of the tournament.

In that era, many strong teams were not interested in the Champions League.

If they could have foreseen at that time that the Champions League 50 years later would become the highest level of world football clubs and a feast for the rich and powerful that symbolizes the highest honor of the club.

I am afraid that it will be extremely difficult for Real Madrid to win five consecutive championships in ancient times.

But still the same.

Football is also a microcosm of real society.

Real Madrid has tapped into the blue ocean market. Not only did it personally participate in the founding of the Champions League, it also became the number one club in Europe from the Champions League.

After the development of the Champions League, even though Real Madrid was unable to win the championship for 30 years, around the 21st century, in 98,2000,2002, [-], and [-], it returned to the pinnacle of European football with its five-year triple crown.

It was also awarded the Best Club of the Century and the Best European Club of the 20th Century by UEFA.

Similarly, AC Milan has become the top club in European football by winning the Champions League six times. Before Real Madrid's triple crown in five years, the Milan dynasty became famous all over the world.

Liverpool, which has won the Champions League five times, is also a representative of a magnificent era.

With Real Madrid's background, they were drawn into the Champions League by a team like Leeds United, which had never won the Big Ears Cup before. They were like nobles facing the grassroots, and they should have no fear.

But after the draw results came out, the Spanish media roared at Calderon: Look at the good things you have done!

"Ronaldo will return to the Bernabeu!"

"The aliens want Capello and Calderon to suffer in remorse!"

"Real Madrid may be in danger!"

Talking about heritage, fame and influence.

Real Madrid is stronger.

But if you look at the results.

This season, whether in the league or in Europe, Real Madrid is on tenterhooks.

Compared to Leeds United's strength and stability.

Real Madrid fans are panicking.

Although Leeds United fans lamented the poor fortune, they did not react pessimistically.

What about Real Madrid?

In the European Super Cup, they defeated Barcelona!

Are you still afraid of Real Madrid, which will have few stars left after the disintegration of Galacticos?

Leeds United host Chelsea at the weekend.

Before the game, a reporter asked about the draw results for the Champions League knockout rounds.

Shen Hao didn't say much.

They come, the security.

Besides, he has peace of mind.

It’s not that Real Madrid is not taken seriously.

But he was not swayed by Real Madrid's heritage.

Detailed analysis of Real Madrid's current combat effectiveness.

Leeds United should naturally have a higher chance of winning.

If anything changes.

It depends on whether Real Madrid will strengthen its lineup during the winter break and whether the conflicts and chaos within the team can be completely ended.

After Manchester United's upset loss to West Ham United at home in the last round of the league, Leeds United led both Chelsea and Manchester United by 4 points.

Although this lead is not particularly obvious, it at least allows Leeds United fans to welcome Christmas with a happy mood.

Mourinho did not make any boasts before the game.

He has felt mentally and physically exhausted leading Chelsea this season.

After all the hard work, Chelsea has now advanced from the top spot in the Champions League group stage, beating the defending champion Barcelona. At the same time, it is only 4 points behind Leeds United in the league.

There is no doubt that Leeds United have continued their terrifying momentum from last season.

18 rounds, 15 wins and 3 draws.

If we say that Leeds United's record in October has dropped slightly compared to the same period last season.

Then look again before the end of the league half-way, they are no worse than last season!

In an even more difficult defending season, Leeds United was able to deliver an answer like half of the league.

Fleet Street couldn't help but praise them and bombard them with nice words.

Game day.

The warmth of the afternoon sun makes ordinary people feel lazy.

The Elland Road Stadium in Leeds was packed with people and presented a fanatical and unrestrained atmosphere.

After the coaches of the two teams entered the field, Shen Hao and Mourinho looked at each other from a distance and nodded tacitly to each other.

It was a hello.

Even though Chelsea had tried to poach Ronaldo before.

But Shen Hao didn't think there was any problem.

At least Mourinho didn't go to the hotel to meet his players privately like he did with Ashley Cole.

Open quotation, transparent means.

This is a normal phenomenon in football.

If you don't behave like others want to poach you, you have to be enemies with others.

Moreover, Chelsea's purchase of Lennon for 2000 million pounds a year and a half ago also solved Leeds United's urgent financial needs. Today, Leeds United can develop so rapidly, which is inseparable from the factors of smooth financial turnover due to the initial cash-out of players.

As long as it's within the rules, Shen Hao can certainly afford it.

If methods outside the rules are used, that would be a different matter.

The starting players of both teams made their debut.

With one week to go before Christmas, Leeds United will host Manchester United in the Rose Derby on Boxing Day.

In recent battles one after another, Shen Hao has remained highly focused on the team.

As for the opponent's situation, he just went step by step and read the analysis report of the coaching staff before the game.

However, it is obvious that the coaching staff did not have enough foresight for Chelsea's formation today.

Shen Hao frowned and looked at Chelsea's starting lineup, wondering whether Mourinho's technical and tactical deployment broke the rules.

Because there are only three defenders in Chelsea's starting lineup.

Bollaruz, Carvalho, Ashley Cole.

Lack of a full-back.

The four midfielders of Lampard, Ballack, Essien and Makelele are all on the field.

Robben and Kalou played on the wings.

Drogba center.

The reason why Mourinho has kept a low profile this season is because he has to handle the situation within the team, or suppress unstable factors.

Shevchenko has been pushed to the bench.

Regardless of whether boss Abramovich is happy or not, Mourinho did this in order to stabilize the record.

To a certain extent, he will win further support from the direct lineage he has cultivated in the locker room.

If the trident configuration of both wingers and a center is not changed, Mourinho replaces Drogba with Shevchenko.

That will definitely hurt your beloved general's heart.

Even though he can use the boss's will as a reason.

But Mourinho chose a tougher approach.

Confront your boss and give your immediate family trust.

This is his personality as a coach.

He will give full and unconditional support to players he thinks are good.

Players that he thinks are not good are forced on him, no matter how famous they are, he cannot trust them.

Leeds United also played with all their main players.

It's just that in the midfield, the configuration is still based on hardness.

Jamie Redknapp, Roy Keane, plus Ze Roberto.

It's not that Shen Hao doesn't trust Rui Costa, but Chelsea's cock is too hard!

If there is not enough hardness to compete with it, Leeds United needs creativity not to mention attacking.

Maybe there won't even be an offensive situation, but Chelsea will control the midfield and frequently make fast breaks.

With the referee's whistle, the blue-white war officially kicked off.

Leeds United did it right away.

If you want to take advantage of the home court to beat Chelsea, your footing is not yet stable.

When Shen Hao saw Makelele appear at the right back position, his heart suddenly sank.

Mourinho did not break the rules, it was still a 433 system.

Using veteran Makelele as right back can contain Ribery point-to-point.

Makelele is not needed to assist, only Ribery's threat is stifled.

Leeds United took the initiative to speed up the game at the beginning, and the two wings flew together and played vigorously.

Ribery did not ask Da to challenge Makelele head-on, but Candela's assists were able to deliver the shells smoothly.

Ze Roberto and Jamie Redknapp also used aggressive sweeps to disrupt Chelsea's counterattack organization in the frontcourt battle.

Chelsea's defensive formation became more and more contracted, like a squeezed spring.

Rivaldo encountered a frontal interception from Ashley Cole on the right, and it was difficult to get rid of it.

However, the teammates who rotate in the midfield to support the team can also stably exert their support capabilities because they are faster.

It's just that Ronaldo was surrounded and suppressed from all directions in the middle of the penalty area, and his performance was a bit disappointing.

It was a bit reluctant to get out of place, and the quality of the hasty shot was poor.

The iron triangle defense of Bollaruz, Carvalho and Essien is not necessarily Chelsea's strongest.

But what made Shen Hao couldn't help but shake his head slightly on the sidelines was that Ronaldo felt a bit sluggish today.

It seems that I can't get excited at all.

Chelsea defended successfully one after another.

The spring, which had been compressed to the extreme, finally began to rebound with force.

As the game approached 20 minutes, Drogba fended off Kompany while fighting for a high-altitude ball in the center circle, and did not allow Roy Keane to interfere successfully.

Header ferry.

The football flying behind was offloaded by Ballack's chest, and then the German superstar passed the ball diagonally to the right side of the frontcourt.

Dutch Peter Pan Robben successfully connected while running at full speed, stopped and then started a fast dribbling advance!

Candela fought and retreated, but the opponent dribbled too fast!

When he had to intercept and defend, Robben spiked the ball and changed direction and continued to go outside to break through successfully!

The Leeds United fans in the stands at Elland Road felt their scalps numb and their backs felt like thorns.

Robben, take off!

When the dribbling reached the edge of the penalty area, Stam had to rush to intercept. Roy Keane ran wildly in the middle and retreated to cover, forming a pincer attack on Drogba in the penalty area.

But Robben took possession of the ball and stopped suddenly before calmly passing the ball across the middle.

Everyone's eyes turned and they saw Lampard running towards him!

The Blues' magic lantern left cousin Jamie Redknapp behind, and Ze Roberto was still two meters away from getting close.

Lampard didn't mess around, he hit the ball directly and hit the goal!

The football blasted from the penalty area line was powerful and heavy. The football without any spin was like a cannonball flying straight to the lower right corner of the goal!

Toldo gritted his teeth and tried his best to save, but was out of reach!

boom!

Leeds United's gate is declared to have been lost!

"Lampard! Chelsea's quick counterattack is earth-shattering!"

"I have to say that Chelsea is second to none in the Premier League in terms of counterattacks. Although we can also play textbook counterattacks, Chelsea are more skilled in brewing counterattack opportunities, which is the pinnacle!"

"Yes, they are shaping the situation, paralyzing the opponent, and letting the opponent remove their psychological defense. It can be said that they are superb. Only when the team suddenly loses the ball will they realize that they are under Chelsea's invisible control!"

Mourinho gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. Lampard's goal made him extremely excited.

His eyes became sharper.

The civil war between the championship groups is the top priority!

Shen Hao's face turned a little gloomy.

Chelsea's defensive counterattack skills are indeed unpredictable.

Generally speaking, a team's anti-counterattack strategy involves counterattacking after a successful defense.

But not quite Chelsea, they will shape the situation through defense.

Only when the situation is ideal will their counterattack storm explode.

Usually these are routine attempts that pose no threat.

As long as there is no threat, it is easy for the opponent to be psychologically paralyzed.

The main reason for Shen Hao's heavy heart is that the team's main C position has collapsed!

If Ronaldo's condition fails to improve.

Just imagine, who else can Leeds United rely on to score?

When playing against other opponents, the entire attacking group in the midfield and frontcourt has the ability to score goals.

But against an opponent like Chelsea.

If there is no threat from core C, the hope of scoring becomes very slim.

There is still plenty of game time.

Shen Hao hopes Ronaldo can recover.

Although my expectations are not high.

Because Brazilian superstars like Ronaldo are not stars who are unique in terms of mental will and have absolute advantages.

It can even be said that Drogba is much stronger than Ronaldo in terms of mental strength!

Ronaldo is one of those people who will relax as long as he performs well.

At his age, he will no longer put pressure on himself.

If he did, he wouldn't be despised at Real Madrid.

Leeds United kicked off and played much more patiently.

Chelsea further shrinks its defense.

With a one-goal lead, you feel more confident.

Most of the time their counterattacks were from the left.

Kalaw never stopped, but with little success.

Even with Ashley Cole supporting from behind.

However, Ashley Cole did not go deep into Leeds United's half. It seemed that he was afraid of the threat of Rivaldo and wanted to ensure that he did not lose his position when defending.

But Shen Hao increasingly felt that this was Chelsea building momentum.

Leeds United's forward line is still struggling.

Even though they had shots on goal, it seemed like they were trying their luck.

Makelele's clever move against Ribery really played a huge role today.

Ronaldo did not improve, but became even more depressed.

Just after 35 minutes of the game, Chelsea's counterattack storm once again swept the frontcourt.

Lampard and Ballack suddenly teamed up to advance the offensive momentum. After passing halftime together, after a simple pass and cut, Lampard restrained Roy Keane in the dangerous area of ​​the offense, but was able to redirect the ball and then send the ball forward.

Kompany and Stam flanked Drogba, who responded with his back, failed to control the ball but retreated and passed the ball across the right wing.

Robben passed by like a hurricane, touched the ball and ran past Stam with great force!

Stam turned around to pursue him but it was too late.

Kompany's interception was very powerful.

But Robben stopped suddenly in the penalty area and moved the ball across with his left foot to complete the escape. After the two of them passed each other, Robben's curved ball with his left foot fell into the upper left corner of the goal!

Countless Leeds United fans were holding their heads with their faces filled with disbelief and their eyes full of shock!

Dutch Peter Pan is like a horse trampling a flying swallow!
