Chapter 1001 No goal scored


Chapter 1001 No goal

Leeds City, which made tactical adjustments through substitutions, launched a fierce attack on the Catalan United goal in the remaining ten minutes.

The Leeds City fans who had been much quieter in the stands also started shouting again, singing continuously, cheering for the team, being the strongest support for the players on the field, and fighting alongside them as the best 12th man.

Before this game, Leeds City fans basically walked into Flanders Stadium in a "festive" mood.

But now, they have put behind them the idea of ​​"appreciating the performance of Catalan United superstars", and they are no longer arrogantly wanting to defeat Catalan United at home.

Now they hope Leeds City can score in the game.

It doesn’t matter how many goals you score...how many goals you score, as long as you score.

Judging from the head coach's substitutions and adjustments, he indeed thinks so too.

There's nothing to say, just cheer for the team as best you can in the stands.

This is the only thing you can do as a fan.

Amid the cheers of Leeds City fans, Salado looked nervous while sitting on the bench.

He was replaced in the 67th minute.

His performance in this game was not as good as his performance in the previous game against Vesuvius.

Although he was very active and worked hard, he neither assisted nor scored.

So when Catalonia took a three-goal lead, their head coach Jose Bernal made adjustments, and the first person to be replaced was Mario Salado.

When he was substituted, the Spanish commentator also commented: "... Salado performed very actively in this game, but it was obvious that his energy was not in the right place. To be honest, Catalonia's three goals It has nothing to do with him, but this is the characteristic of young players. It is normal to have a good game or a bad game... There is no need to worry about the performance of a game..."

He was comforting Salado's fans and Salado himself.

Because you can see that the expression on Salado's face when he was substituted was not good-looking, and he didn't seem to want to be substituted.

It is normal not to want to substitute. No young player wants to be substituted early. They always have more fighting spirit and motivation to compete. After all, young players have fewer opportunities to participate in the game than older players.

But with Salado’s performance, it’s really difficult not to be replaced...

But when they saw Salado still frowning and looking solemn after being substituted, many people couldn't understand why he still had this expression...

After all, Catalonia already leads Leeds City by three goals.

To say that it was a bit dangerous at the beginning of the second half, it is easy to think of the embarrassing situation in the last round of the Champions League group stage when they led by three goals and were chased by Vesuvius by two goals. So after Pettersson scored twice, Catalan United has obviously stabilized.

Even if Leeds City can score, it will be difficult to chase three goals in a row in the remaining time...

Antonio Valero, sitting next to Salado, knew why his good friend was reluctant to be substituted and why he was so nervous after being substituted.

He is worried about Hu Lai scoring.

Salado himself did not score or assist in this game. If Hulay also scored, wouldn't he be temporarily behind?

So he especially doesn't want Hu Lai to score.

Valero didn't know how to comfort Salado. He couldn't say "Don't worry, Hu will definitely not score", right?

Who can guarantee this?

If Hu Lai scores a goal just after saying that, wouldn't it be a slap in the face?

Leeds City, who replaced Lorenzo in a desperate posture, continued to attack amidst the waves of cheers from the home fans.

Their offensive was so fierce that Catalonia had to shrink its defense and choose to avoid the edge temporarily.

Leeds City finally succeeded in breaking through the Catalan United goal in the 83rd minute!

It's just that the person who scored the goal was not Hulay, but Jay Adams.

Freed from his defensive duties, he was pressed into the penalty area. Lorenzo competed with Fortune in front of the goal. After fighting for the ball, it fell right in front of Adams, while another Catalan center defender Jimen Nice was firmly pinned slightly further away by Hulay. Adams did not bear much defensive pressure. He did not stop the ball and directly volleyed with his feet!

The football flew into the goal guarded by Catalan United goalkeeper Carlos Cordero!

When the football flew into the goal, the entire Flanders Stadium burst into huge cheers, as if they had won the game...

The Leeds City fans in the stands vented all their emotions. At this time, they no longer thought about the arrogant expectations before. Even if they lost the game, this goal was enough to comfort their restless hearts.

Only the Chinese fans are sorry, after all, they still hope that it is Hu Lai who scores the goal.

This is Catalonia United! If Hulay can score in Catalonia, he will be the first Chinese player to score against a European giant!

Qin Lin had never done this before...

But there is no way, it is impossible to guarantee that Hulay scores goals in every game, and it is impossible for him to score all the goals for the Leeds City team.

Otherwise, this may not be a good thing for Hu Lai, because it means that the team he plays for is rubbish - the whole team can only count on Hu Lai to score goals. It is almost like Hu Lai is working alone. Everyone else stood around and watched...

In the end, Leeds City lost to Catalan United at home with a score of 1:3. They did not defeat the powerful Catalan United at home as some people hoped. But a desperate counterattack at the last moment brought them a goal, which can also comfort many people.

After all, this was a goal against Catalonia United.

In the first round of the group stage, they faced Bay Lighthouse away from home and scored two goals. In this game, they faced the more powerful Catalan United and still managed to score.

It fully illustrates how powerful their attack firepower is.

Although everyone knew before that Leeds City is good at attacking and is the team with the most goals in the Premier League.

But that's only in the Premier League after all. Some people think that this will not be the case once they go to Europe.

The level of the Champions League is still higher than the Premier League.

Being able to score goals in the Premier League does not mean that he can also score goals in the Champions League.

Now after two rounds of the Champions League group stage, although Leeds City has conceded four goals, it has also scored three goals.

Before this season's Champions League game, Leeds City fans once clamored to make Leeds City known to all of Europe.

Now it seems that after two rounds of the Champions League group stage, Europe has indeed begun to take notice of Leeds City and realize what kind of team it is - it can score goals and concede goals, which is indeed very Leeds City... …

Although Leeds City lost the game, they still ranked second in this group after two rounds of group matches.

Catalonia, with two wins from two games, is at the top of the table with six points.

In the other group match, Vesuvius hosted Bay Lighthouse.

What is somewhat surprising is that Vesuvius, who performed well in the first round of the group stage, failed to score the goal of Bay Lighthouse after returning home.

They drew 0:0 with the Turkish Super League champions.

Through this game, we can also see how difficult it was for Leeds City to defeat Bay Lighthouse away from home.

Because the two teams were tied, Vesuvius was in third place with one point after two games.

Bay Lighthouse has one point. Although the goal difference is the same as Vesuvius, which is -1, it has one fewer goal than Vesuvius, so it ranks at the bottom.

"We won and Hu hasn't scored yet, which is perfect for me..."

On the plane flying back to Barcelona from Leeds, Mario Salado said excitedly to his good friend Antonio Valero.

He had a smile on his face, which showed that he was really happy and relaxed, and the dissatisfaction he felt when he was replaced early had long since disappeared.

"Of course, it would be even better if I could score... But it doesn't matter, we still have another chance to play against Leeds City. That will be our home court then! I will definitely use goals to prove that I am Melly’s opponent!”

Amidst the roar of the cabin, only Valero beside him heard Salado's heroic words.

"Come on, Mario." my good friend encouraged, "I will cheer you on in the stands then!"

"Why in the stands?" Salado noticed the key words keenly.

Valero said with a wry smile: "It has been more than a month since the new season started, and I have only played 21 minutes in the first team. Mr. Bernal talked to me yesterday and will let me continue to stay in the first team for training, but in the game If so... let me go back to the B team, so I probably won’t be selected for the game squad again..."

Salado's eyes widened. He was completely immersed in the emotion of challenging Hu Lai these days, and he didn't notice the loss of his companions at all.

"But it doesn't matter, I'll cheer you on from the stands, that's the same, Mario."

Looking at his friend who was forcing a smile, Salado opened his mouth, but no words came out.

I just feel jealous in my heart - when I return to our home court, I will definitely score a goal against Leeds City, and then I will dedicate this goal to Antonio! (End of chapter)
