Chapter 419
Kolarov's world-class goal not only helped Leeds United lead by two goals, but also completely kicked Chelsea's already limited fighting spirit away.
In the subsequent time, although Grant tried to inspire the team's fighting spirit with his roar and substitutions, Leeds United did not give them too many opportunities. Chelsea's occasional organized attacks could only threaten Neuer a few times.
After the game time entered the 85th minute, facing Leeds United, who had used up all the substitutions and started to attack again, Chelsea could only shrink again and park the bus in the backcourt.
At this point in the game.
Everyone knows that there is no miracle. It is 100% Leeds United that will enter the next round of the FA Cup!
In the studio of Sky Sports.
Jon's tense face also relaxed as Chelsea shrank its defense again, and he became a little desperate.
As a Chelsea fan, he felt more like a regret: "It was a complete blow! This is simply a complete blow! This game is the ugliest Chelsea game I have seen since Mourinho left! Whether it is the players' competitive state or the game between the head coaches, Leeds United won a complete victory today! We should think about what new things Grant brought to Chelsea!? Mourinho's defensive counterattack is really a counterattack! And Grant... has only ugly, passive... defense!"
"Let's congratulate Leeds United. There is no doubt that under the leadership of Lee, they did not give Chelsea any chance. They successfully qualified for the next round of the FA Cup!"
Just as Jon said.
After three minutes of stoppage time, Clattenburg didn't care that Leeds United was still holding the ball and attacking, and directly blew the whistle to end the game!
Leeds United defeated the visiting Chelsea 2:0 at Elland Road and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup! They will face Huddersfield, the English League One team that defeated Oldham yesterday, at Elland Road in mid-February!
····
With the end of this round of the FA Cup, Leeds United has finished all its matches in January. Starting from next month, Li Shiguang will focus on the upcoming Champions League round of 16.
At the same time.
As January draws to a close, the 2007-2008 winter transfer window is about to close.
Unlike the Premier League, which has been extremely hot in the transfer market in recent years.
The winter transfer windows of other major leagues are not very hot. Sneijder, who was bought by Inter Milan for 20 million euros, is already the biggest transfer.
But for fans, although the player transfer market is not very interesting.
But in Spain, there is indeed a super drama going on.
Early January.
Marca suddenly broke the news that Ramon Calderon, the current president of Real Madrid, has been abusing the rights granted to him by Real Madrid members to enrich himself since he took office last year. He privately used the club's credit card to buy personal items, calling him a "beggar with a tie".
In fact, if it is just this kind of seemingly nonsensical news.
The outside world will just treat it as a joke and laugh it off.
On the one hand, Calderon is not a real beggar. Even if he used the club's credit card, the hundreds or thousands of euros would not be taken too seriously.
On the other hand, since Calderon took office, Marca and cope radio have been attacking Calderon.
The reason is very simple.
A year and a half ago, after Florentino was forced to resign due to the pressure of the team's poor performance, the election of the new president of Real Madrid was actually a major battle for the market among various Spanish media.
When a media outlet really "becomes big", their desire is no longer just to "report news", but to try to control the club, because once this goal is achieved, the media outlet will have inexhaustible news resources in the future, and can use the club's huge influence to gain benefits for the media.
This situation is even more vivid in world-class clubs like Real Madrid!
Therefore, during the election for the position of the chairman of Real Madrid, various media outlets will create public opinion for the presidential candidate who is close to them, in the hope of gaining benefits in the future!
Interestingly, Calderon was actually not favored by any media group at the beginning. Even Real Madrid's mouthpiece, "AS", they were more optimistic about another candidate, Mir, because his policies were more consistent with Florentino's superstar ideas.
But after Calderon won, "AS" chose to turn in time, and Calderon, who had a backer, naturally became more optimistic about otherThe media group's attitude is very indifferent. Over the past year, Marca, cope radio, and El Mundo have never stopped attacking Calderon.
And this report did not cause much sensation at the beginning.
Even Calderon did not accept an interview in AS as he did before to respond.
But what no one expected was that Marca was serious this time!
Just one week after the revelation that Calderon used public tools for private purposes, Marca published another article, targeting Calderon and his right-hand man Mijatovic.
The revelation was also quite exaggerated.
Marca counted all the signings after Calderon took office, revealing that except for the introduction of Maicon from Leeds United, which cost 40 million euros, all other transfers were more or less tricky! Calderon and Mijatovic made a lot of profits for themselves! In addition, Calderon also tried to evade paying "personal income tax" in various ways.
And the article in "Marca" was not made up casually.
They even listed various evidences below, including an interview with a lady named Cristina who worked in Real Madrid. In the interview, this lady said that there were a lot of tricks in Real Madrid's signings in the past two years. She had several yin-yang contracts with completely different prices!
This well-founded report was published, and the whole of Spain went crazy!
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this time "Marca" is definitely not a small fight. To put it bluntly, it is aimed at getting Calderon out of office!
If it is not handled properly.
Maybe Calderon and Mijatovic will not only step down, but also face jail time...
