Leeds City's triumphant return was warmly welcomed by the fans at the training base the next day.
After all, this is the first time in the club's history that they have participated in the Champions League and were able to score all three points and win. It can be said that it is something worth bragging about.
They used these three points to prove that even if they are considered the most successful Premier League champion in recent years, and even if they are rated as "the weakest seeded team in this Champions League" by the European media, they are not soft persimmons to be bullied.
Even the Turkish Super League team dare to look down on us?
This will let you see how powerful the Premier League champions are!
Leeds City did not embarrass the fans when they went abroad to play, which is what makes everyone happiest.
The Bay Stadium, the home ground of Bay Lighthouse, is known as the "devil's home stadium". Many wealthy teams have failed there, but Leeds City was able to escape with three points.
Such a performance is indeed something Leeds City fans should be proud of.
After playing in the Champions League, Leeds City will face Holt at home in the league.
Riding on the prestige of their first Champions League victory, Leeds City won cleanly against its currently second-ranked opponent.
Hulay, Kamara and Josh Lawler each scored a goal to help Leeds City defeat their opponents 3:0 at home.
Having just participated in the Champions League, and now playing in the Premier League, many Leeds City players feel that their opponents have become weaker...
Although the next Champions League game is against Catalonia, the strongest team in this group, at home, Leeds City players have already begun to discuss this game animatedly in the dressing room.
Everyone can't wait to play against the real European giants, and against those superstars who could only watch from a distance before.
As for the league, I am not interested in it...
There is no interest in the league, and even less interest in the League Cup.
However, Clark has no intention of letting the main players in the league play in the League Cup.
On Wednesday, September 23, in the third round of the League Cup, Leeds City drew another Premier League team, the Highlanders.
After reaching this level in the League Cup, the probability of encountering a team lower than yours is very small.
The Highlanders are currently ranked 15th in the league, and their final ranking last season was 13th. If nothing else, their ranking this season should be in this range.
They have to fight for relegation, but the road to relegation is not that difficult.
Such a team will be more willing to invest energy in various cup competitions. After all, it is difficult for them to make a difference in the league, and at the same time they are not worried about dispersing their energy in other competitions and leading to relegation.
Leeds City still uses substitutes and young players to cope with the League Cup.
So of course they lost to the Highlanders 0:3 in the away game.
After losing this game, Leeds City returned home to face Wiggerston, who were third in the league.
It stands to reason that the competition between the second and third place in the league should be fierce, but Clark still did not send all the main players.
Even Hu Lai came on as a substitute in the second half.
Half of the starting lineup is not the main force.
Because Leeds City will face the most powerful enemy in the Champions League group stage in the next week - Catalonia United.
Clark intends to save all his strength for the Champions League group stage.
So even if it was a battle between second and third place, he chose to give up.
Not only Clark, but also Leeds City's players were clearly not focused on the league and did not perform well on the field.
In the end, they lost 1:3 at their home court.
The team's midfielder Salif Seydoux scored his first goal after joining, but this goal did not change anything.
After seven rounds of league play, Leeds City suddenly slipped from second place in the league to fifth place in the league.
But no one cares about this now. Everyone's thoughts - including the media and fans - have turned to the Champions League.
This stadium in Flanders will also welcome the top teams from the European continent for the first time.
Catalonia United, whose full name is Catalonia United, is the most popular team in Catalonia, Spain. It is also the pride of the Catalans and one of their powerful weapons to compete with the Spanish government.
For Catalans, this team is definitely more than just a football team.
Therefore, the Catalonia region basically gathers the strength of the entire autonomous region to support this club. Originally, in the economic map of Spain, the Catalonia autonomous region is one of the most economically developed regions, on par with the capital Madrid.
.
With money and people, Catalonia's strength cannot be underestimated, and it has been able to fight with the capital's representative, the King of Madrid, for more than a century, and the fight has been back and forth.
This famous football club founded in 1900 has won 35 La Liga championships, 21 Copa del Rey championships, 18 Spanish Super Cup championships, and six Spanish Super Cup championships in its 126-year history.
Champions League twice, Europa League twice, Club World Cup four times, European Super Cup five times...
It can be said that their championship honors are like the stars in the sky and the number of sands in the Ganges.
The well-deserved top European club has a huge number of fans all over the world.
Even in Leeds, a British city, there are many Catalan United fans.
While Leeds City fans support their home team, they also don't mind choosing a team they like from other countries' leagues to support.
After all, no one thought at that time that their unknown home team would one day be able to participate in European competitions.
There is no interest involved and it is normal to support any team from the European continent.
Catalan United is so famous, it is normal for Leeds fans to like it.
Nowadays, this Catalan club is full of superstars. It is equal to the Madrid Kings in La Liga and is also a regular in the Champions League quarterfinals in European competitions.
Mario Salado, who was previously included in the ten-man shortlist for the best young player in Europe, although talented, is not outstanding in today's Catalan United. There are too many players who are better than him.
Today, the number one star of Catalan United is undoubtedly their local superstar, midfield commander Gaspar Rosas. This double midfielder of Catalan United and the Spanish national team is the team captain and also the Catalan midfielder.
United's midfield commander.
He is not outstanding in stature, but his skills at his feet are exquisite. Whether he is sending fatal passes to directly assist his teammates to score, or combing the midfield, he is at a world-class level.
In the just-concluded World Cup in the United States and Canada, the Spanish national team was able to win the championship and have the last laugh, which is inseparable from his organization in the midfield.
In addition to Rosas, Catalonia also has many of the world's top stars on its three lines.
For example, the sharp figure on the front line, Sweden's top star Emund Pettersson. He is the top scorer in the history of the Swedish national team. He is strong and has excellent foot skills, and has a strong impact in front of the goal.
In addition to Rosas, the midfielder also has his partner, midfield master Victor Campuzano, who was also trained in Catalonia's youth training. This midfielder, who is three years younger than Rosas, can almost be regarded as the same midfielder.
Era. He dribbles well, can pass and dribble, and has the ability to single-handedly change the rhythm of the game.
His presence makes up for Rosas' shortcomings of poor dribbling and slow speed, and increases Catalonia's explosive ability in the midfield and frontcourt.
The midfield combination of Campuzano and Rosas is also one of the important reasons why Spain successfully won the World Cup this year.
On the defense line, Joel Jimenez, the main center back of the Spanish national team, is 1.88 meters tall and has excellent predictability.
Paul Fortune, who partners with him, is the main center back of the French national team. Although he is not tall, only 1.84 meters tall, he is fast and can turn around flexibly, which perfectly complements Jimenez.
In addition, their left back Francisco Calderon is also the main left back of the Spanish national team and a world champion. His greatest characteristic is his fast speed.
The right back is Pablo Osqui, the main player of the Argentine national team. He is fierce in defense. You can know what kind of player he is from his nickname "Mad Dog". For any offensive player, he is extremely
A difficult opponent that you least want to encounter.
In the goalkeeper position, although Carlos Cordero is not the main player of the national team, he is also the second goalkeeper of the Spanish national team - mainly because Rodriguez Bacco of the Madrid Kings is too strong, so Cordero can only play.
Substitute. But Cordero is still young, only 25 years old. Everyone knows that he will be Bakker's successor. When Bakker retires from the national team, he will become the main goalkeeper of this world championship team.
In addition to the above players, there are many first-class European stars in Catalonia United. They are likely to be the absolute main players in other teams, but in Catalonia United, they will either play rotation or serve as substitutes.
The depth of their lineup is enough to make Leeds City fans salivate - if we also have such a first-team lineup, I'm afraid we won't have to give up the league for the Champions League...
Such a super giant is coming to Flanders Stadium as a guest. For Leeds City fans, this is not only an important Champions League game, but also their football feast.
Being able to enjoy the performance of the world's top stars at your doorstep is already worth the price of admission. If you can still win...
why not?
This is our home court!
After conquering the "devil's home court" in the first round of the Champions League group stage, Leeds City fans are now full of confidence.
Catalonia is a relatively strong offensive and defensive team, and we at Leeds City are also good at attacking.
Fight against each other to see whose spear is sharper in the end!
Catalan United has just arrived in Leeds, and Leeds City fans have already begun to plan and look forward to it.
