Chapter 266
The 65th minute of the game.
Originally, Leeds United organized an offensive opportunity from the middle, but when the ball was pushed to the outside of the Sheffield United penalty area, Sneijder, who had just replaced Toure, was intercepted.
Kilgallon, who took the ball from Sneijder's feet, did not hesitate to make a long pass to Richards who was waiting for an opportunity near the center circle.
Cannavaro, who was left at the end of the defense line, did not grab the landing point in the first time, and the ball was easily unloaded by Richards.
After turning around, Richards just observed briefly, and seeing that Quinn had rushed across the half court, he quickly passed the ball to the left side, and then ran quickly towards the Leeds United penalty area!
"It's dangerous! Sheffield United seized the opportunity of Leeds United's massive attack, and immediately organized a quick counterattack after intercepting the ball in the backcourt!" Lineker exclaimed.
Seeing the sudden change in the situation on the field, Jon's speech speed also increased suddenly: "Sheffield United's good opportunity! Quinn has received the pass from Richards and is running towards the Leeds United penalty area at high speed along the sideline, while Lahm, who should have appeared in this position to defend him, is still desperately chasing behind Quinn!"
Although Lahm's speed is faster than Quinn, he did advance too deep before. Even though he has tried his best to chase back now, he still can't stop Quinn's bottom cross.
Quinn passed the ball very cunningly.
He did not choose to pass the ball to Richards who had already run to the position and was waiting for his cross at the front point.
After looking up a little to observe the situation in the penalty area, Quinn passed the ball directly to the back point.
And Sheffield United's other striker Stead just ran from the right side of the Leeds United penalty area to the landing point of the ball.
At this time, Cannavaro, who had been close to Richards, and Kompany, who had returned to the penalty area, did not notice Stead's movements.
This also resulted in no defensive players around the Sheffield United striker!
It's over!
Only Schmeichel can rely on him!
Li Shiguang stared closely at Schmeichel, who was moving to the right on the goal line.
But what neither Li Shiguang nor Schmeichel expected was that Stead did not choose to stop the ball and adjust the angle before shooting.
After he judged the landing point of the football in his mind, he pushed his feet hard on the grass, and the whole person rushed out in the direction of the football! Then his forehead hit the football heavily, and he headed the football to the left of the goal with a diving header!
This made Schmeichel, who predicted that Stead was going to shoot to the right, completely desperate!
He could only symbolically stretch out his hand, and then watched the football hit the goal he was guarding!
1:2! Stead's goal put Leeds United in a desperate situation!
After scoring the goal, Stead called Quinn and Richards to come over and celebrate with him. This counterattack of Sheffield United was planned and completed by the three of them.
The three of them ran to the corner area again, provoking the Leeds United fans in the stands, and the fans who had no more mineral water bottles to throw could only boo them...
····
"A beautiful cross! Quinn is looking for the back post!" Jon explained quickly, "Stead has rushed over and jumped to the top! Schmeichel has no way! Sheffield United actually overtook the score at Elland Road!!!"
"Ah——Ah——" Lineker hung his head. He had a bad feeling since Quinn made the cross, so when he saw the football After hitting the net, he could only utter painful and meaningless syllables..
Jon remained calm: "Sheffield United took the lead away from home, and on the other field, the score was still one to zero! It can be said that Leeds United has sunk into the abyss at this time. If these two scores do not change until the end of the game, then Leeds United will hand over the Premier League championship trophy to Manchester United!"
····
"Fernando, Marco! Five minutes, go warm up!"
Li Shiguang's hurried voice sounded in Simeone's ears, who was already a little numb.
Simeone looked up and saw that Li Shiguang had walked back to the bench from the sidelines and said to Reus and Torres.
When the two heard the coach's arrangement, they quickly put the team's previous loss behind them and got up and ran to the sideline.
"Boss, there are only 20 minutes left." Simeone, who came back to his senses, was worried, and his bright eyes during the halftime break had become a little dim.
"I know!" Li Shiguang nodded, his tone normal, sounding unaffected by the team's lag. "Aren't there still twenty minutes? Diego, we still have a chance!""Do I need to call Vincent over to remind him? I think his mentality seems to be a little wrong today. If the opponent scores again, we will probably have no hope." Li Shiguang's words sobered Simeone up a little. After hesitating for a while, Simeone still put forward his own opinion.
Li Shiguang turned his head and looked at Kompany standing on the field with his head down, and shook his head: "No, the ball just lost can't be blamed on him. Since the whole line is pressing forward, it is expected that the opponent will seize the opportunity to counterattack quickly."
But after saying that, Li Shiguang returned to the sidelines and put his hands together at his mouth, shouting to his disciples: "What are you doing! The game is not over yet! Why are you all so dejected!"
After saying that, he also clapped in the direction of Kompany.
At this time, the Leeds United players were all concentrated in their own half, so everyone heard Li Shiguang's voice, and the players turned their eyes to Li Shiguang.
They did not see any negative emotions on Li Shiguang's face.
It was as if his head coach had not realized that they had been overtaken by Sheffield United!
Especially Kompany, he thought he would be scolded by Li Shiguang, and when he first looked at Li Shiguang, his eyes were a little evasive.
But when he found that Li Shiguang had no intention of blaming him at all, and looked at him with a little encouragement, Kompany's already high mental attributes were instantly stimulated.
He also clapped and shouted at his teammates in front.
"The boss is right! The game is not over yet!"
"Brothers, there are more than 20 minutes! Let's work together to keep the championship at Elland Road!!!"
