Chapter 197: Shaq Who Crushes Everything! （19）

After playing the second leg of the Champions League semi-final with Bayern, Leeds United advanced to the final with an aggregate score of 8:4, which completely shocked the entire European football world with Leeds United's "youth storm".

A day later, another team that reached the Champions League final also produced ...... "Blue Moon" Manchester City!

Manchester City defeated Barcelona 2-1 away from home, returned to the home stadium and played a 1-1 draw with the opponent, and passed the danger with an aggregate score of 3:2, which can be regarded as an affirmation of Pellegrini's hard work this season and the strong squad of the "Blue Moon".

The "Cosmos Team" is currently only strong on the surface, and the real strength has declined a lot compared with previous years, after the pillars of the team such as Xavi and Puyol are old, the "little flea" Messi himself is already alone, this season they can still beat Real Madrid in Spain, but the record in the Champions League still proves that the team is declining.

Before the FA Cup final, the "Young Guards" played two more league games, beating Stoke City 5-1 at home and losing 1-3 away to Manchester United.

The defeat to Manchester United was also the first time this season that Shaq missed a game without injury and with the manager's permission because ...... After accumulating enough yellow cards, the FA suspended him.

Although Leeds United have already won the title, and the remaining league games have no impact on them, people still see how important Shaq is to Leeds United, and when he has him, Leeds United can easily win 5:1 at home to Stoke City with the substitute lineup, and they can only lose 1:3 to the "Red Devils" Manchester United without Shaq.

On 10 May, the FA Cup final was lit at Wembley Stadium......

For this match, English football is quite serious, after all, Leeds United and Manchester City are the teams that have reached this season's Champions League final. The FA Cup final was also a preview of the Champions League final in two weeks' time, with two of Europe's strongest and most in-form teams playing each other this season, which naturally attracted countless fans to watch the game, which was the highest level of FA Cup final ever!

The two sides involved in the game also took this game very seriously, Simon? Grayson certainly won't miss the chance to win the "treble" in England, and Manuel Pellegrini doesn't want to be empty-handed this season. If they can win the FA Cup and then beat Leeds United in the Champions League final, it will be a season of great harvest for Manchester City.

The two teams know each other well enough to go all out in a life-or-death event like the FA Cup final.

Leeds United's Simon? Grayson fielded all the main squad after a ten-day break, and Manuel Pellegrini also lined up his team's strongest squad, but the team's number one star Sergio Aguero missed the game due to suspension and had to watch the game from the stands.

Solita striker or Bosnia-Herzegovina centre-forward Dzeko, with Milan behind him? Badrji, Yaya? Toure and Nasri.

The two midfielders are Manuel Pellegrini, who bought Sandro from Tottenham Hotspur, and Jack, who bought him from West Ham United? Collinson played together. Both of them are typical of the balance of attack and defense, and can complete the team's offensive and defensive transitions very well.

The back line is composed of Bochetti, Kompany, Richards and Isla, this line of defense is Mancini's legacy to the "Blue Moon", and Pellegrini is not confused, he did not break it up, and the goalkeeper is naturally still Joe Hart.

Because there was no need to test each other, this FA Cup final entered a fierce confrontation from the beginning............

The "Blue Moon", who was the first to tee, launched an attack as soon as they came up, and they also controlled the ball at their feet. However, when Collinson shoved the ball forward to Dzeko, Red rushed out from the side and kicked the ball to Jonny on the left? At the foot of Hausen.

Wait for Leeds United to attack. still attacked from the left side first, but the "Blue Moon" is really familiar with Leeds United's routine, and it can even be said that all England teams have studied the left side of the "Young Guard" because of awe.

When Manchester City brought together Isla, Collinson, Nasri, Kompany, Yaya on their right flank? After Toure, Sandro and other six players, Leeds United's ball was only broken.

The two teams are so familiar with each other that neither can take advantage of the attacking process, and often the ball is cut off just past halfway. But with five minutes to go, the deadlock was broken......

Ashley? Hood in front of the right side of his penalty area and Yaya? When Toure was fighting for the top, he was awarded a free kick by referee Webb because of a backward action on his elbow.

Nasri, the "duck" who took the free-kick, showed his football talent and skills perfectly. He first curled the ball around the wall in the Leeds United penalty area, and the ball flew extremely fast and the line was very low, and there was a rebound in the small box on the right side of Leeds United, and then ...... The ball went in.

“GOAL！！！！！！！！！！！！！！ Nasri! Manchester City's French midfielder Nasri opened the scoring first! Leeds United have held all the teams down this season, beating them 3-1 and 2-0 in their two league meetings with Manchester City, but this time ...... Manchester City have taken the advantage! Simon? Grayson and his team could be on the verge of a loss! They could well miss out on their third trophy of the season! ”

The words of the commentator who should have been neutral at this time were a bit of schadenfreude, it was really because Leeds United was too strong this season, they were like hungry beasts full of desire to win, and won the league championship with an undefeated record before losing, and finally easily swept away Tottenham Hotspur to lift the trophy, and now in the FA Cup final, Leeds United has been a bit of a national enemy.

People are often like this, for those unattainable beings, there is both awe and hope to see it unlucky.

Seeing Leeds United score first, at least 80 per cent of England were cheering!

But these people ...... I really didn't be happy for long!

Just five minutes later, with 10 minutes to play, the "Young Guards", who had not panicked after conceding the goal, had just worked harder.

Shaq in the back of the middle for Jonny? Hausen sent in a through ball, and then the Leeds captain broke into the Manchester City penalty area with three Manchester City players chasing and blocking, and when everyone's attention was on him, the Leeds captain pushed the ball with his left foot into the right penalty area.

Pifkowski, who followed up on the right side, picked up his right foot and shot with his right foot, and the ball flew into the goal on the right side of Manchester City with a "whoosh".

1:1 Draw!

After the goal, Pivkowski and the Leeds United players all looked calm, they just smiled and high-fived each other, and it seemed that this team really matured, or should it be said...... They already have a champion temperament!

"The ball is in! Pifkowski scored, but he had to thank Leeds captain Jonny for the goal? Hausen's wonderful pass, and the initiator of this attack, Shaq, also has credit, it seems that everyone is saying that what kind of results our England team can achieve in the World Cup this summer is mainly to see the play of the 'Leeds Three Musketeers', this statement still has some truth. ”

The commentator's mood is also a bit complicated, and most neutral fans are also very conflicted, they want to see Leeds United taste defeat, but also want to see Shaq and Jonny? Hausen, Ben? Can the three Parkers have a good performance, and even want to see the youngster Ashley? Hood will be able to play well because these four players are basically going to play with Hodgson's 'Three Lions' in the summer World Cup in Brazil, and the better they are...... The better it is.

"Blue Moon" Manchester City is obviously fully prepared for this game, after the score was equalized, they are still calmly entangled with the "Young Guard", they will go all out in every scramble, and they will spare no effort to rush forward in every attack.

With 27 minutes played, City's chance came......

Left-back Bochetti assisted the front court with the ball, the Italian defender who was introduced by Mancini as a central defender, has not been able to play in the position of central defender since coming to England, and his performance has always been quite average, but after Pellegrini took over the team, he let Bochetti play left-back instead, and now he is playing well, and even put full-time French left-back Gayle? Chrissy was squeezed to the bench.

"Smack!"

Seeing his chance, Bochetti sent the ball to Yaya in the penalty area on the left? Toure at the feet!

After the tall Ivorian midfielder protected the ball with his body, he calmly completed the turn in front of Red, and sent the ball to the middle of the penalty area with a horizontal push!

"Bang!"

A figure in a light blue jersey appeared, Welsh midfielder Jack? Collinson shoots directly from distance!

"Huh!"

After the ball flew up, it arced through the crowd in front of the small penalty area and finally hung directly into the corner of the top left corner of the Leeds United gate!

Roneckan turned his head in shock, and he couldn't do anything more than watch the ball fly into his own goal!

This ball...... It's fast, it's angled, and it's sudden, it's really powerless!

“GOAL！ GOAL！ GOAL！ GOAL！ GOAL！！！！！！！ Jack? Collinson! Nice shot! Brilliant goal! 2:1！ In 27 minutes, Manchester City took the lead again! ”

I drank a little too much at yesterday's class reunion, I didn't say it, the fat man made up for it! Yesterday on the 18th guaranteed 2 more + 180 plus + 19th guaranteed 2 more, today there will be five more! (To be continued......)
