Chapter 901 The Last Round
At the Flanders Stadium on Saturday, May 9, there was still an hour before the start of the game, and the fans had already almost filled the stadium.
The stands on all sides were filled with dense crowds of people, including men and women, of different ages, wearing Leeds City jerseys from different eras, sitting or standing in the stands.
There is already a television broadcast signal on the big screen at the scene. Before the game starts, the camera has many empty shots.
When you scan the Leeds City fans in the stands, you will find that most Leeds City fans have serious and tense expressions.
Usually if a camera pans over the stands and fans find themselves on the big screen, they will enthusiastically wave at the camera and interact with it, as if they are playing a game with the camera.
But today, every Leeds City fan who appeared on the big screen had no intention of playing games with the camera.
This day is indeed crucial for Leeds City, so it is normal for the fans not to have fun.
It can even be said that today is the most important day in the lives of many Leeds City fans so far - in a country and city that is crazy about football, it is not an exaggeration to say this.
Look at those gray-haired old fans, they came to watch the game wearing Leeds City jerseys from the 1950s and 1960s... The fact that this jersey can appear in this stand has a certain symbolic meaning. After all, it has a certain symbolic meaning. That a jersey from ten years ago can still be preserved so well by its owner, doesn't it just show the status of this jersey in the owner's mind?
Today, there are tens of thousands of jerseys like this in the stands of Flanders Stadium.
For these fans, it can be described as "dressing up".
The reason why they take it so seriously is naturally because today's game is related to whether they can win the first Premier League championship in history.
Facing such a historic moment, Leeds City fans really couldn't relax.
They were a little worried about gains and losses, so that their expressions were all stiff.
It wasn't until footage of the Premier League championship trophy appeared on the big screen that the Flanders Stadium became commotion.
"Look! It's the Premier League trophy!"
"Oh my god... Although I have seen it on TV many times, I never thought that one day it would be so close to me..."
In fact, this trophy is now shown to everyone through TV cameras, but the psychological distance between Leeds City fans and the trophy is indeed not as far away as before.
Now this championship trophy stands quietly in a room specially prepared for it.
Shown through camera lens for all to see.
The Premier League trophy in the lens shimmers with silver light, as if it is magical, firmly attracting the attention of all Leeds City fans.
No matter which stand the Leeds City fans were in, they all turned to look at the big screen at this time, their eyes were dull, their expressions were obsessed, and they were completely fascinated.
Levin looked at the big screen and murmured: "I really want to touch the trophy with my own hands... I don't know what it feels like? But I think it may be as delicate and smooth as my first girlfriend's skin..."
John turned his head and looked at him, then stood aside, not wanting to get too close to this pervert.

"Because Leeds City and Stan Park Rangers both have the chance to win the Premier League championship, so in this game, two teams from the Premier League set off to the stadium with the championship trophy. But what came to Leeds Flanders Stadium was the real championship trophy. , and the ones going to the Highlanders are replicas... After all, Leeds City has a higher probability of winning.”
The glittering trophy also appeared in front of the Chinese TV audience. He Feng and Yan Kang introduced the scene to the audience.
"I hope Leeds City can work hard to keep this real guy at Flanders Stadium, ha!" Yan Kang said half-jokingly.
"After a long season, we have finally arrived at the final finish line. Leeds City players don't have to worry about how Stan Park Rangers and Highlanders play, they just need to do their own thing - —As long as they win, the championship is theirs”
Xie Lan, who was in front of the TV, shouted excitedly and nervously: "We must win!"

"Although the last relegation place still has to be decided between the two teams Holt and West Herts, although North London and London Bridge are fighting for the Europa League places, it has not yet been decided. The result comes... But the most eye-catching thing in the last round of the league must be the competition for the league championship! Audience friends, welcome to the Flanders Stadium to witness the home game between Leeds City and Northumbria! ”
Matthew Cox shouted as both players walked off the pitch.
"This round of the Premier League will kick off at the same time, so at this moment, in Newcastle in the north, the Highlanders will also welcome Stan Park Rangers! Both Northumbria and the Highlanders have already announced their plans before the game. To be honest, they will not let their opponents easily get three points, so the suspense of the league championship will continue until the last round of the league..."
At the pre-match press conference, Northumbria head coach Michael Harris told reporters with a serious face: "After a season of tempering, our team has grown compared to the beginning of the season. A lot. Although this time it is an away game and we are facing Leeds City who are destined to win, we are still confident that we can stop them in the away game! ”
In the final round of this season, Northumbria ranked seventh. For a newly promoted team, this was far beyond their own expectations. And this ranking has also doubled Northumbria's confidence.
It seems that there is capital to cause a scene at Leeds City's home ground.
After the game started, they actively attacked Leeds City's penalty area as if it was their home court.
In Harris' view, Leeds City is so close to the Premier League championship for the first time in history. They lack experience and will not be able to perform normally in the game. Nervousness and anxiety will always affect their performance.
At this time, Northumbria makes another move...
Maybe Leeds City will collapse.
But twenty-six minutes into the game, Northumbria's goal was breached first...
"HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU——! Aha!! The 31st goal in the league! He scored his 31st league goal this season! There is no suspense about the league golden boot! For Hu, this season can be said to be It’s a great harvest!” Matthew Cox cheered. "He just won the best player of the players union and the official player of the season of the Premier League before this round of the league... Now, if nothing else, the Premier League Golden Boot is also his... It's just crazy... Ladies , Gentlemen, can you imagine this is the performance of a player who has played a full season in the Premier League for the first time? ”
Cox roared at the top of his lungs, because even though he was wearing noise-isolating headphones later, he was still so shocked by the sounds that he was not sure whether his voice was well included in the microphone...
Just as Hulay shot the football into the goal, a storm formed over the Flanders Stadium.
The storm swept through the entire stadium area, trapping everyone in it.
Every fan in the stands was not "escaped"... they cheered and raised their arms and shouted.
Prior to this, the Flanders Stadium was a bit quiet - Leeds City fans were worried about the team, fearing that they would really fall behind at critical moments due to lack of experience.
It can be said that all Leeds City fans will not feel enjoyment when watching this game, but will always be on tenterhooks.
Stan Park Rangers, in particular, scored early on away from home to take the lead against the Highlanders. When this news came, it also caused a commotion among the Leeds City fans in the stands...
The commotion spread to the pitch and Leeds City manager Tony Clark had to stand on the sidelines and yell at them to calm them down.
Fortunately, the commotion did not last long, and Hu Lai scored.
"Some people say that Hulay can only score goals and has little effect other than that. But if a player can always score goals at critical moments, does he play a key role? This is the case with Hulay's goal. ! It is obvious that after he scored, both the Leeds City players and the fans relaxed..." He Feng was full of praise for Hu Lai's goal.
But it’s not just Leeds City fans and players who are relaxing?
All Chinese fans, including him, let out a sigh of relief.
Now everyone knows:
No matter how the game between Stan Park Rangers and Highlanders goes, as long as Leeds City can win, we will be the league champions!
This is a kind of confidence that you don’t have to look at other people’s faces.
This feeling is wonderful. (End of chapter)
