readx;

In April, the weather in England is getting warmer. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the same time, the world economic situation is warming.

The shadow of the world economic crisis that broke out at the end of 08 is gradually dissipating. The slow recovery of the international economic situation has made the European football market gradually active again!

Fast forward to April, and the title race for Europe's top five leagues has gradually become clear - La Liga is still dominated by Barcelona, and Real Madrid is still at a disadvantage despite spending heavily on superstars such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka...... In the Bundesliga, the former leader 'Pharma' Bayer Leverkusen was chased by Bayern Munich in the final game, which came from behind to occupy the top spot in the standings...... The Nerazzurri led by the madman Jose Mourinho remain firmly in the spotlight of the Apennines, with AC Milan, Juventus and Roma battling to fight for a Champions League spot...... Ligue 1 side Marseille made a strong effort in the second half of the season and shook off Bordeaux...... The Premier League is the most competitive league - Rijkaard's Newcastle remain firmly at the top of the table, but the gap between the Magpies and the Blues Chelsea is still only two points, Manchester United and Arsenal are third and fourth with three and four points apart, while Liverpool are gradually out of the title contenders, with a gap of six points between Arsenal in fourth place...... With 6 rounds left in the league, the top four Newcastle, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal all have a chance to win the title!

Such a chaotic situation of the division of the heroes has stimulated the Premier League extremely hot, and almost every round of games is the focus of the battle!

April 15th.

The 33rd round of the Premier League was played at St James' Park, and Newcastle hosted the Red Devils Manchester United!

Li Tongfan and Wang Qinghe appeared on time in the stands behind the conductor's seat like a fixed scenery of St. James.

And what they got was still the enthusiastic applause of the fans.

Force!!

Amid the cheers of the Newcastle people, the game officially began.

Rijkaard has fielded his best 4-3-3 formation this season, with Gigi, Ronaldo and Irving as the team's attacking trident, with Alan Smith, Gago and Juan Mata in the midfield!

Defender four Thornton, Hyypia, Steven Taylor and Gareth Bale.

Goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.

Whether it is for Manchester United or Newcastle, this game is a six-point battle, if Manchester United can overturn Newcastle on the road, then the Red Devils can catch up with the Magpies in points, otherwise, the difference of 6 points can basically allow Ferguson to wave goodbye to the 09-10 season of the league title!

From the first minute, the game entered the stage of hand-to-hand bayonet red.

The Reds, who were playing away, took the lead in the 18th minute when Ryan Giggs headed in a corner from the right and Nemanja Vidic slotted home before Finnish veteran Hyypia made a fatal mistake...... 1:0!

The lagging Magpies fought back amid the shouts of more than 50,000 fans.

Finally, towards the end of the first half, the veteran Hyypia, who made a mistake, made amends. Arjen Robben's wide break set up a free-kick for Newcastle and Juan Mata's free-kick was met by Hyypia with a header high in the middle...... 1:1!

Newcastle equalised hard.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and it was Manchester United who broke the deadlock first - in the 66th minute, Portuguese winger Nani crossed from the side, and the veteran Scholes won the penalty spot and shot angrily, penetrating the ten fingers of [Spider-Man] Hugo Lloris...... Ferguson, the old Scottish man, swallowed the gum in his mouth excitedly, rushed out of the seat of the command with his hands raised, and hugged the assistant coach next to him...... 2:1!

Manchester United are taking the lead again!

It was a huge blow for Newcastle!

Rijkaard immediately made a change - Khedira, who was good at cutting in from a distance, replaced Gago, and [Black Swan] wanted to strengthen the attack in this way...... Like a wounded beast in a trap, Newcastle launched the most furious counterattack.

In the stands, the shouts of the fans never stopped.

Li Tongfan and Wang Qinghe also stood up and shouted wildly...... Eventually, it wasn't until the 85th minute of the game that the superstar value was evident – Ronaldo and Owen played a beautiful one-two.

The fat man burst into the box with the ball and was brought to the ground by Patrice Evra from the back of the side, and the referee did not hesitate to show the French full-back a red card and award Newcastle a penalty!

Alan Smith hits with a knife!

2:2!!

The Magpies reaped a draw!

Seven minutes later, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the game ended in a 2:2 draw!

It was a complete defeat for both sides, with both Chelsea and Arsenal beating their respective opponents in the same game, and in doing so, Chelsea overtook the Magpies to sit top of the table with a win-scoring relationship, while Arsenal leapfrogged Manchester United to third place!

Of course, for Newcastle, there is still a chance to win the title, as long as they defeat the Blues Chelsea in the penultimate round of the league, they can still lift the league trophy!

The whistle blew.

Ferguson left St James with an unconcealable disappointment.

Rijkaard was equally helpless.

Before the game was over, Lee Tongfan left the stands and entered the box of Sir John Hall, another major shareholder of Newcastle, and the two were discussing something seriously, and John Hall's face appeared with a look of shock...... This scene was recorded in detail by the broadcast camera.

In particular, the scene where the madman Lee didn't know what to say at the end, which made Sir John Hall have a shocked look on his face, has caused endless speculation from many media and fans...... Something particularly big must have happened!

Otherwise, Sir Hall would never have shown such a surprising gaffe image, you must know that an old nobleman like Hall who is a traditional family has always paid special attention to his personal image...... After the game, all kinds of speculations in the English media really covered the sky - "The key battle lacks stamina, and Newcastle loses a good game"

St James' draw and defeat both sides, Blues Gunners profit

"The Battle of Tianwang Mountain at the Inn Stamford Bridge, the Black Swan's Only Chance for Redemption"

"Rijkaard faces a crisis of confidence, and the madman Lee may return to the helm of the Magpies"

"The madman Lee proposes a change of coach to Hall, and the old jazz is shocked"

"Crazy Lee can't stand the mediocrity of the Dutch, and wants to go back out of the mountain to support the magpie"

…… It's a pity that because everything happened in the box at that time, the broadcast picture was blurry, and the best lip language experts couldn't decipher what the madman Lee said!

There has been a lot of speculation in the major media in England.

Among these many speculations, the most convincing and most likely possibility was put forward by "The Observer" - the madman Lee, who has fully recovered his health, was stimulated by the team's current predicament in the competition for the league title, so he decided to fire the Dutchman Rijkaard, return to coach Newcastle, and revive the invincible style of Newcastle!

As soon as such speculation came out, it was widely recognized, and it also caused countless people to sigh.

Rijkaard is a world-class coach, he has won two heavyweight trophies for Newcastle this season, the UEFA Super Cup and the English League Cup, and in the knockout rounds of the Champions Cup, he led the Magpies to defeat strong opponents such as Atletico Madrid and Sevilla in succession, retaining the hope of winning the championship...... In any club, this is a perfect result!

It's a pity that in a club like Newcastle, which has become completely accustomed to winning over the past year, any defeat is hard to accept, let alone at St James, where there is a perfect replacement, the madman Lee, who is always ready to return to his former post...... As for the mention that Crazy Lee is currently in charge of the Argentine national team...... Is this still a problem?

This man had done this kind of thing a year ago, and it was not difficult for him to be in this situation for both club and national team!

has been hyped by the media, and even Newcastle fans are absolutely the truth of the matter.

People are lamenting what happened to Rijkaard, but it is clear that both the media and Newcastle fans are more hopeful for the return of the madman Lee...... However, they were all disappointed!

…… April 14th.

Crazy Lee and Newcastle coach understood Lard's press conference hall at St James' Park, and personally held a press conference to refute the rumors and support Rijkaard - "Frank is the manager of Newcastle, he has done a very good job at St. James, and he has won the love of all the players and fans...... Any speculation that he is going to leave Newcastle is naïve and ridiculous, not only this season, next season, next season, as long as Frank is willing to stay here, he will always be the manager of Newcastle!! ”

This statement completely broke all previous relevant speculations.

"Lee, can you tell me what you said to Sir John Hall when you returned to the chairman's box at the end of the game to make Sir Hall so out of shape?"

A reporter directly asked about the root cause of the matter.

"Oh, I'm just asking Sir Hall if he has time to come to my house to play mahjong in the evening......" Li Tongfan was prepared and gave an answer without hesitation.

Puff ...... The reporters instantly foamed at the mouth and fainted to death.

...... [Black Swan] Rijkaard's position, after the madman Lee held a press conference to refute the rumors, it seems to be extremely stable, and the authority of the Dutchman in the team has risen instead of falling!

And the atmosphere in Newcastle's dressing room has once again become calm!

But what the hell did 'Crazy Lee say?' The answer to this puzzle is becoming more and more confusing! No one believes the explanation of the madman Lee at the press conference, who believes who is a fool!

………… The villa of steel tycoon John Hall.

Living room.

The white-haired old Hall held the turquoise jade cigarette holder in his right hand, took a deep puff of his cigar, and exhaled a puff of cyan smoke, then looked at the middle-aged man who had been sitting quietly on the sofa in front of him, and said slowly: "Henry, haven't you always wanted to be a successful football club owner?" There's no better time than now......"

The middle-aged man named Henry did not show an obvious happy expression on his face, but asked with a frown: "Father, Newcastle is now on an upward trend, and there is a lot of room for appreciation, why is the madman Lee suddenly willing to transfer the shares in his hand to us?" Will...... Is it because of the club's financial problems?
