Chapter 662: Group stage ends

In the sixteenth round of the league, Leeds United welcomed Middlesbrough at home. According to the original historical development, Middlesbrough will be relegated after the season.

Judging from the current performance, Middlesbrough's performance is still acceptable, at least it has not fallen to the relegation zone, and Middlesbrough's lineup is not bad.

Of course, the lineup does not mean that the game is good, Real Madrid has been fully proven, so a team with good player strength also needs a good head coach.

Although Southgate is good, he is not a genius head coach like Li Yi. He needs time and experience.

At this point, the game was fully proved. The Leeds United at home had suppressed Middlesbrough from the beginning of the game. This suppression was not just about strength, but also pre-match preparation and tactics.

Although they are all old opponents in the league, they are no strangers to each other, especially Leeds United has changed little compared with last season. Of course, Middlesbrough has not changed much.

So the two sides skipped the tentative stage directly. After the game started, Leeds launched an onslaught and broke the situation on the court in the fourth minute.

Although Li Yi's team is good at scoring goals in the opening game, it can be seen from Middlesbrough's reaction that they are not prepared enough, and they still know that their opponents are good at the opening attack.

After gaining the lead, Leeds United immediately changed its tactics and gave up the ball to force Middlesbrough to attack. Although this is one of Li Yi's conventional tactics, it can be used on that team and requires careful consideration.

Southgate's team was still calm at first, but in the face of Leeds' unmoved, the players in Middlesbrough could not resist the attack.

The counterattack, Leeds United's counterattack can be said to be very sharp. Irving ushered in his second goal in the league, and it was his national teammate, England fan Beckham, who assisted him.

Marseille is about halfway through the season, and Beckham has spent less and less time in the Premier League. In this regard, Beckham also cherishes his time in the Premier League.

Therefore, Li Yi also arranged for Beckham to play in the league as much as possible, and rarely even replaced it in the game, even if the team has ensured victory.

Li Yi originally wanted to reduce Beckham's playing time as much as possible this season. In addition to avoiding Beckham's fatigue and injury, he wanted to give young players more opportunities to play.

However, after Beckham took the initiative to find Li Yi, after some in-depth exchanges, Li Yi made changes. Of course, after making the changes, Li Yi found several young players in the team. Li Yi had previously promised that he would now Change, naturally, tell them clearly.

Beckham will leave next season, and Kanter will be transferred to the first team. This change in and out is actually not much changed. At that time, Jonyhausen had been excluded from the team by Li Yi, so he needs to be recruited.

For the midfielder, Li Yi has already made arrangements. Belgian future national team midfielder De Blaunet, the Belgian teenager has just been mentioned by his club Genk to the first team this season, currently only a substitute player.

Therefore, at this time, it would not cost Leeds United a lot of money. In addition, Corleone had already shot under the instructions of Li Yi. At present, the two sides have basically agreed on the transfer fee.

Of course, it is not difficult to persuade a few young players, as long as Li Yi makes a guarantee that he will not rush for help next season.

The two goals falling behind is a huge blow to the morale of Middlesbrough. It is so-called while you are sick and killing you. After the game restarts, Leeds United once again changes its tactics.

Fully pressed, the suspense of this game was completely killed with all the enthusiasm, all by the end of the first half, the score on the field had become 3: 0.

After all, they are all in the Premier League, and they still have to give face, not to mention the team has players from the past. Li Yi adjusted the starting soon after the second half.

In the end, Leeds did not score in the second half, and Middlesbrough did not make any useful changes in the intermission. The score of 3: 0 remained until the end of the game.

Six consecutive victories. With Leeds United winning Middlesbrough, the league once again ushered in six consecutive victories. However, the four giants in this round have all won, but the point difference has further widened.

Because the last round of the league Chelsea lost, Liverpool drew again, Chelsea lost to Arsenal, this time the London Derby entered the sought-after victory, and Liverpool played at home with West Ham 1: 1.

Therefore, now Leeds United have 8 points ahead of Liverpool in the second place and 9 points ahead of Chelsea in the third place. As for Arsenal and Manchester United, they can be ignored because both teams are very open.

After the match in Middlesbrough, Li Yi was very generous to give the players a day off, although there is a final round of the Champions League mid-week, but this last round has not affected the first position of the Leeds United team.

Even Li Yi also considered letting the young players of the youth team go to the UEFA Champions League for a round. In fact, Li Yi really did so. After the team regrouped, several young players were transferred to the first team.

Seeing Li Yi's move, Marseille almost cried. Then Marseille went from the chairman to the pig's feet, down to the players and fans, and began to call on Leeds to pay attention to the spirit of competition.

They are hopeless in the Champions League, but the European Union can still compete, and for Eindhoven and Marseille, the European Union is also very attractive.

Li Yi's answer to Marseille's appeal was very good ~ www.novelhall.com ~ But in fact, when the main lineup came out, Marseille really cried, and there were actually three players starting from the youth team.

The Maasai crying also means that the Eindhoven people laugh, but when the game started, the Eindhoven people couldn't laugh because the Leeds United scored a goal quickly.

And the player who officially scored the goal from the youth team, the young England center Harry Kane, meanwhile, the management of Tottenham has been dizzy, because Harry Kane still belongs to Tottenham a few months ago.

This was not over, Eindhoven immediately launched a counterattack, but they found that a small figure eventually appeared on their offensive road.

Even this small figure gave Eindhoven a fatal blow. In the 38th minute of the first half, Kanter sent a long pass after the ball was intercepted. Leeds quickly counterattacked. Lennon single-handedly rewritten the score to 2: 0.

When the game ended, Eindhoven cried completely, because the final score on the court was 3: 1, and the reason why Liz United won this victory was because of the outstanding performance of several young players.

On the other side, it was obvious that Atletico Madrid eventually tied 0-0 in Marseille. With this game, Marseille occupied the third position as expected.
