Chapter 625
Although the respective personnel of the two teams have not changed much, the difference in strength still exists, even if most of the main players of Leeds United are sitting on the bench in this game.
This was reflected on the pitch immediately after the start of the game. Leeds United, who played at home, started very proactively and completed the shot in less than a minute.
Suarez's first shot in the Premier League, Reus cut through the wing and cooperated with Suarez, who faked a shot.
I have to say that Suarez’s fake shot was very thoughtful and obscure, completely deceiving the defender, but unfortunately he failed to deceive the goalkeeper. Schwarzer jumped and blocked the ball.
It is no wonder that Middlesbrough and Fulham will compete for this veteran this summer. Unfortunately, Middlesbrough is not willing to give this veteran a little better contract, so that he was poached by Fulham.
In the fifth minute, Schwarzer again saved Leeds United's shot, this time Reus' own shot, and the German winger was quite active in this game.
Seeing the active Royce, Lennon on the other side naturally couldn't let it stand out. In the seventh minute, Lennon made a pass from the wing and Suarez fought for the top.
However, it is a pity that Suarez failed to compete with Hangeland. The height of the Norwegian central defender 195 has an unparalleled advantage in header.
Lennon, who saw this situation, naturally would not make the same mistake. In the eleventh minute, Lennon completed another cross, a low pass and the ball behind him, making full use of the disadvantage of Hangeland's slow turn. .
However, Suarez failed to grasp it. It was the same problem, lack of tacit understanding, and this thing took time to accumulate, even if Li Yi hung up, it would take a certain amount of time.
Leeds United's offensive has been higher and higher, and it is clear that breaking the goal is a matter of time. After all, from the beginning of the game to the present, Fulham has almost been kicked in the half.
The reporters in the media booth on the sidelines saw that their teeth were itchy. You must know that just before the game, Li Yi announced to everyone in a high-profile manner that Leeds United's goal this season is to win the championship.
Although Leeds United overtook Liverpool at the last moment and ranked fourth in the league last season, in the eyes of the media, it was because Liverpool made their own mistakes, not because Leeds United was strong, and last season, Leeds United League Cup and FA Cup were eliminated early. One league left.
This season is different. There are not only leagues, but also the Champions League to play. For a team with little background, playing the Champions League is definitely a tragedy, so the media began to sing Leeds United before the qualifying matches. .
The result was a 3-0 slap in the face by Leeds United,
Of course, the media, they are all gods and ghosts, and they were quickly rounded up by them. They said that their opponents in the qualifying match were not strong, and I don't know who said that Standard Liege was good before the game.
So after Li Yi's announcement, the media immediately sharpened their knives, but unfortunately, Li Yi didn't give them a chance at all. After he finished speaking, Li Yi turned around and left.
Regarding Li Yi's waywardness, the media was very helpless, and even the FA was helpless, saying that he would not come to participate. Every time he had an excuse, when he came to participate, he basically said a few words and walked away.
But judging from the current situation, Leeds United has a great advantage. Of course, as long as no goals are scored, there is still hope. Football games can never be won with advantages. The most important thing is to score goals.
However, when the media comforted themselves with the lack of a goal, the score on the field was finally broken. In the 18th minute of the game, Fulham brought down Delphi in the hinterland and Leeds United got an indirect set-piece.
Delphi took the penalty, and the ball flew into the Fulham penalty area. After Kompany attracted it, Hangeland was the first in the defense. Cahill took the opportunity to kill and beat Alancius to dive with a header.
Although Schwarzer made a save, his ball did not touch the ball, because Cahill's header was too high and went straight to the dead end.
The ball was scored~~~ Leeds United~~~ In the 19th minute of the game, with an indirect set-piece opportunity, Cahill headed the goal to complete the goal Elland Road Stadium finally ushered in an outbreak, although Leeds had previously United fans are very enthusiastic, but at this moment, they are like volcanoes.
This game has become difficult for Fulham, because since Li Yi joined Leeds United, he has never lost the lead. Although this record was last season, it has led The games that have not been won since then are really counted all the time.
On the pitch, Leeds United's celebration did not last long, because the score of 1:0 was not guaranteed, even though Leeds United now has the absolute initiative.
However, the first wave of attacks after the restart of the game belonged to Fulham. Guerra made a cross from a forty-five degree angle. Zamora headed the ball back. Murphy followed with a long-range shot and was shot by Adler. .
In the tactical corner kick, Murphy kicked the ball to Xue Qixuan. Because Davis had a cold before the game, the South Korean midfielder ushered in a rare starting opportunity, but in the first 20 minutes, he did not perform at all.
It is said that Li Yi's popularity in South Korea lasted for a full month. Liu Zaishi not only had to face the media's questioning, but also his partner was asked questions about Li Yi in his program.
No, this game was also broadcast live in South Korea, but the Korean media could not interview Li Yi before the game. After all, even the English media could only watch Li Yi's back and curse.
But this does not prevent Koreans from being curious about Li Yi. If Koreans only survived Li Yi's fame before, they really know Li Yi now.
Of course, whether Koreans know or not has nothing to do with Li Yi, and even Li Yi doesn't care about it, because Li Yi doesn't have a good impression of Korea, let alone sports competition.
Xue Qixuan sent the ball into the penalty area, but was cleared by Leeds United. Then Leeds United launched a quick counterattack, Rakitic sent a long pass, and Suarez turned around and rushed to Fulham halftime.
Although Suarez's tacit understanding with other players is not enough, Suarez's consciousness is top-notch. Now Suarez is unknown, but he has the potential of the world's top striker.
Of course, even if the strength of Suarez is not bad, he has reached the A level, and he still has the strength to play the main force in the giants.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL~~~2:0~~2:0~~~Leeds United expanded their lead and scored two goals in three minutes.
Single-handed~~~ Suarez's consciousness is very good. On the contrary, Fulham's players react a bit slower. Step by step, step by step, it is said that Suarez himself is not slow, so coupled with Li Yi's BUFF bonus, this single-handedly became doomed.
As for Fulham's goalkeeper, Schwarzer actually performed well enough, but unfortunately, in the face of single-handedly, Schwarzer couldn't do much.
