Looking at Henry's sworn appearance, as if he wanted to pull Xia Yu into the gang, and he also really liked Chelsea, Xia Yu smiled dumbly.

He looked at Elena for a moment, then looked at Henry again, who looked expectantly, nodded and said, "Okay, I've been to England so many times, and I haven't seen a football game yet!"

'I promise you won't be disappointed, Liverpool are strong, but Chelsea can't lose!' said Thierry Henry, spiritedly.

'Alright, Thierry Henry, if you want to have the strength to cheer for Chelsea all the time, you have to fill your belly now. ”

Hearing his sister's words, Henry calmed down a little, he shrugged his shoulders and said to himself, "Maybe, you're right!"

With that, he continued to enjoy breakfast.

......

After breakfast, Xia Yu and Elena accompanied Henry to meet his classmates and drove to Stamford Bridge together.

Stamford Bridge is Chelsea's main stadium and is located on the west side of Fulham Road in the Fulham district, a short distance from the River Thames and the famous King's Road.

Opened in 1877, for the first twenty-eight years it was used almost exclusively by the London Sports Club, as a venue for sports events rather than as a football stadium.

It was not until 1904 that H· A. Mills and his younger brother J. Mills T. Mills was given ownership after they were given a large market plot near the stadium and plans to build a football team on the 12.5-acre site. Originally, the stadium was intended for Fulham FC, but Fulham FC turned down the opportunity because of the cheaper Craven farm.

There was no way, and the unwilling Mills brothers decided to set up a football club on their own.

Because the name "Fulham Football Club", which previously represented the Fulham district, was already occupied, the Mills brothers chose from proposals such as "Stamford Bridge Football Club", "Kensington Club", "Chelsea Football Club", "London Club" and so on, and finally "Chelsea Football Club" became the name.

Interestingly, Fulham is next to Kensington-Chelsea, which is also a wealthy area.

So if you are not familiar with English football, it is easy for foreigners who come to London to think that Chesil FC is located in the Chelsea borough, but they do not know that it is located in the Fulham district.

Elena's residence was already in the Fulham area, so it took Xia Yu and the others about five minutes to come to the outside of Stamford Bridge.

At this time, there were already a large number of fans queuing up to check the tickets and enter the stadium, and Xia Yu, who was not short of money, naturally bought the best seats, and even exchanged the tickets of Henry's classmates, so that everyone could get together, mainly for the sake of safety.

After checking the tickets, everyone looked for a place with their tickets and went to the entrance of the West Stand, where not far away was a statue of Osgood, the king of Chelsea.

Because the game hadn't started yet, Xia Yu and Elena, who were sitting together, chatted casually, while Henry chatted very happily with his classmates.

As the days went on and more fans from both sides entered, the pitch grew louder and louder.

When the Liverpool team in the red jersey and the Chelsea team in the blue jersey entered, as the music sounded, the whole stadium resounded with deafening cheers, in this atmosphere, Xia Yu felt like blood spurting.

After introducing the players, the players from both sides dispersed, and with a whistle, the game officially began.

Just a minute or so into the game, the Reds began to go on the offensive with Ian Rush, a 20-year-old Liverpool star who rushed towards the Chelsea goal with the ball.

At this time, there are still many fans who have not yet entered, and they are attracted by the earth-shattering exclamations, and urgently set their eyes on the green stadium.

"Oh God, shovel him!"

"Hurry up, stop him!"

Henry and others, who were beside Xia Yu, hugged their heads and exclaimed, panicking about Chelsea's situation.

Xia Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the red figure that was rushing forward with the ball, and a thought flashed through his mind.

Ian Rush seems to be the super striker of the Reds Liverpool later, and he is also the record scorer of Liverpool, and was even praised by fans and the media as the greatest striker in the history of Wales.

Just as Xia Yu was thinking, Ian Rush cooperated with his teammates to attack the Chelsea field, and then he faced the siege of the two and passed the ball to his teammate Kenny Dalglish, the super scorer who was more mature and stable than Ian Rush received the ball and volleyed directly, the football stuck to the grass, and rushed into the net before the goalkeeper fell to the ground to intercept!

Two minutes and thirty-two seconds into the opening period, the Reds scored a goal!

There was a moment of silence in the stadium, followed by a devastating cheer from the Reds fans, while the larger Blues fans hugged their heads and wailed, as if they couldn't believe that their team had conceded so quickly!

For a while, the sounds of abuse, wailing, and even cries came and went.

Glancing at Henry, who was wailing, Xia Yu shook his head secretly.

He has already remembered that the end of the seventies and the whole of the eighties in history seemed to belong to Liverpool, this is the legend that belongs to the Red Army.

Under the command of Red Army commanders Shankly, Paisley and Fagan, the Red Army was like a ferocious red machine, quickly crushing all the obstacles in their way, and conquered the city all the way, winning 11 league titles, four European Championships, four League Cups, three FA Cups, two League Cups and one UEFA Super Cup in 17 years, establishing the supremacy of English football in one fell swoop.

Because of the Liverpool team, English football has swept up a red storm in Europe, which has terrified many opponents.

Red Army Marshal Shankly also shouted some classic words, such as:

"There is no such thing as the best football team in the world, because the best football teams in the world have been killed by Liverpool!"

"There are only two football teams in the world, one is called Liverpool and the other is called Liverpool Youth!"

......

There are many more famous sentences like this.

It's only 1981, and four years later, the Heysel tragedy that interrupted Liverpool's glory has not yet happened, and the Reds are at their peak, and it will be difficult for Chelsea to win!

Even if you have a home advantage!

Suddenly, Xia Yu seemed to think of something, stroked Elena's hand, and whispered in her ear: "Elena, do you remember the current ranking of Chelsea and Liverpool in the league? I seem to have heard Henry mention it in the car just now, but I don't remember it." ”

Elena smiled sweetly and whispered: "I remember Liverpool were first on aggregate and Chelsea were 19th, just one goal difference away from 20th. ”

"I see. ”

Xia Yu smiled and nodded.

There is no Premier League that will resound in the world in later generations, not even the Championship, and the top league in the United Kingdom is the English League, which has 22 teams in the entire English League, two more than the Premier League in later generations.

Under the rules of the last three relegations, Chelsea are now 19th, on the edge of the relegation zone.

As with the twentieth place points, there is only one goal difference, so after this game, it is estimated that they will have to enter the relegation zone.

The truth is as Xia Yu expected.

No matter how much the Blues fans cheered for the rest of the day, and no matter how hard the Blues struggled, they couldn't beat the Reds Liverpool.

Throughout the game, the Blues' defence was beaten through a sieve by Liverpool.

How a group of blue-collar Blues players are opponents of Liverpool's top group of players.

With a whistle, the game was over, and the score was fixed at 4-1 amid the helplessness and wailing of the Blues fans!

Chelsea have fallen into the relegation zone and the situation is precarious!

After leaving, Xia Yu sent Henry's classmates home, and then, together with Elena, took Henry to a high-end garden restaurant.

Looking at Henry, who was still lost, Xia Yu and Elena glanced at each other, he moved the stool, sat next to Henry, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hi, Henry, I want to start a little, the league has only started for three months, and it is still early in May, Chelsea still has a lot of opportunities, and now the ranking is low, which does not mean that it will always be behind in the future." ”

Henry raised his head, his eyes flickered a little, and tried his best to explain to Xia Yu: "It's just Liverpool's luck today, in fact, Chelsea's strength is very strong, but it's just ......"

'Well, I can't make it up, Chelsea really suck, the team I like is very bad, I'm in a terrible mood today!'

"I'm sorry to have you come to watch such a bad game, I shouldn't have invited you. ”

Xia Yu smiled and patted Henry's shoulder, and said again: "Henry, it's nothing, Chelsea is not ashamed to lose to Liverpool, you look at these years, are there still fewer European giants who have lost to Liverpool? ”

When it came to opportunities, Henry looked depressed, shook his head and sighed: "The chances are too slim, Chelsea has no money, its funds are in trouble, and now the results are so bad, it has entered a vicious circle." ”

'Maybe next year, Chelsea will be relegated to the second division, hey...... Chelsea is a rich team, in fact, the ball market in London is very good, the market is far more than Liverpool, but the management is terrible, and the Mills family has heard that there is a problem with the funds again, and there is no money to invest in transfers. ”

"If you don't have a star and you can't buy a potential star, when will Chelsea create a big club that belongs to it......"

Xia Yu's expression moved slightly, and he asked Henry: "Henry, Chelsea has a financial crisis?"

Henry didn't notice the change in Xia Yu, and he subconsciously complained: "Yes, Chelsea Football Club itself is in debt, and the Mills family's expansion of Stamford Bridge has caused financial constraints, and now the stadium expansion project has stopped." ”

Xia Yu looked inexplicable, bowed slightly, and a thought appeared in his mind.

Maybe it's an opportunity.

It's also good to buy a team to play around......

PS: I worked overtime until almost eleven o'clock, and it was another day of updating at more than two o'clock in the morning......
