143: Who says that those who are slapped in the face one after another are not heroes
The 33rd round of the 2012-2013 English Championship season ended. Crystal Palace defeated Bristol City 2-1 at home, while Cardiff City lost 0-2 at home to Brighton.
Brighton, ranked seventh in the English Championship, is showing off!
Ranked seventh in the league, they are only one place away from participating in the promotion play-offs. Brighton naturally has to exert their efforts. As long as they work harder, they can break into the top six and win the league promotion play-offs.
Qualified.
Therefore, the Cardiff City team did not correctly estimate the strength of their opponents.
Only then was he plotted.
Currently, Crystal Palace still ranks first in the English Championship. Their record is 24 wins, 2 draws, 7 losses and 74 points.
Ranking second in the English Championship is Cardiff City, with a record of 21 wins, 5 draws, 7 losses and 68 points.
Therefore, now Crystal Palace has widened the gap with Cardiff City again, and the split between the two teams has reached 6 points.
Cardiff City are really helpless!
It's no wonder that Harris madly dissed the Cardiff City team in his reports. The Cardiff City people were too dissatisfied.
Originally, Crystal Palace had a big problem during this period, and it was a good time for them to chase points.
but?
Now they are widened by points difference, and they are simply speechless.
Harris even felt that Cardiff City should simply fail and withdraw from the league title competition.
At this time, Harris also madly criticized the Malaysian Chinese owner of the Cardiff City team.
Xi Zengchangyi, if this damn guy hadn't messed up, Cardiff City would have encountered such behavior for the first time.
Are they in chaos? Will Cardiff City fail to seize the opportunity?
Harris believes that the reason why the Cardiff City team is like this is entirely because of the chaos of the club's top management, which has led to Cardiff City fans being divided into multiple factions, leading to confusion among the fans, and even leading to chaos in the stadium, thus affecting
Here comes the team's results.
In his view, if Cardiff City wants to surpass Crystal Palace, it must sack Zeng Changyi and hand the club over to British management. Only British people understand football, and only British people can manage British football clubs.
The same goes for Crystal Palace.
Crystal Palace must let Tong Yi and Martina go, so that Crystal Palace can get on the right track and move toward revival.
Chinese people don’t understand football at all!
At this time, Harris was madly dissing Tong Yi, Zeng Changyi and others, claiming that neither Chinese nor Chinese were qualified to manage football clubs, and that football clubs could only be managed by the British.
Tong Yi was speechless!
This Harris is really too provocative, and is also suspected of discriminating against Chinese people.
Guys like this should be banned forever.
However, Harris's good days are not far away. Harris's lawsuit for defaming Tong Yi and Martina has entered the second trial stage. After this time's penalty, Harris should be executed, and he will have no chance to do it again.
Appealed.
Harris will most likely have to spend time in jail It's been a while.
Perhaps this is why Harris acted so crazily during this period.
Of course, Harris is right about one thing, that is, Cardiff City cannot afford to lose anymore.
Currently ranked third in the English Championship is Hull City, with a record of 19 wins, 5 draws, 9 losses and 62 points.
They are getting closer and closer to Cardiff City, with only a 6-point gap.
If Cardiff City continues to be like this, their second position in the league may be almost unkempt. They will have to go to third place in the league and participate in the promotion play-offs.
Therefore, the current situation is also very bad for Cardiff City.
They can't continue to lose.
Currently ranked 6th in the English Championship is Middlesbrough, whose current record is 16 wins, 3 draws, 14 losses and 51 points; and ranked 7th is Brighton, whose record is 12 wins, 13 draws and 8 losses.
Score 49 points.
Brighton are now only 2 points behind Middlesbrough who are sixth in the league. No wonder they are so fierce.
The Brighton people are about to show off their strength.
Cardiff City lost to Brighton, not unfairly!
There are still 13 rounds of games left before the end of this season's English Championship. In fact, the schedule is still very long. As for what the final situation of the league will be, it's really hard to say.
Even Crystal Palace, currently ranked first, is not stable.
Even though they have now reached 74 points, they may be squeezed out of the top six. Of course, this consideration is very, very small, but it exists in theory.
So, no one should be discouraged.
Everyone has a chance!
Harris said, just look at it, Crystal Palace is actually finished. Don't worry about Crystal Palace, because they are about to lose consecutive games.
But by this time, even his loyal supporter Gustav no longer believed in him.
Haven't you seen the current state of Crystal Palace?
They have won many consecutive victories. After this guy Tong Yi comes back, the Crystal Palace will be normal. Who else do you think can stop this damn Tong Yi?
Gustav and the others were speechless towards Harris.
But now what Tong Yi is thinking about is not the league, but the League Cup final.
Yes, the League Cup final is coming soon.
On February 24, 2013, the final of the 2012-2013 English League Cup is about to begin.
Originally, this day was going to be the 34th round of the 2012-2013 English Championship. The Crystal Palace game was on this day. But because of the timing of the final,
It was postponed. But it was not postponed for long, it was postponed directly to three days later, that is, February 27.
Because the 35th round of the 2012-2013 English Championship will be played on March 2.
Therefore, the game was postponed to this day.
Although this is another short international match day, it is not too late to finish this game and go to the national team.
However, this still has a great impact on the physical fitness of Crystal Palace players.
Playing so many games in such a short period of time will definitely make the Crystal Palace players very tired, which increases the possibility of injuries.
But there is no way, there are so many games now, unless the Crystal Palace people give up.
However, it is obvious that this is unrealistic. .??.
After all, they have now reached the final of the EFL Cup, and they can win the championship in only one game. At this time, the Crystal Palace people will naturally not give up, and Tong Yi is not willing to give up.
In this game, Crystal Palace will definitely go all out to win this championship.
Moreover, Crystal Palace's opponents in this game are not very strong. This is a good opportunity for them to win the championship.
Because Crystal Palace's opponent in the EFL Cup final was Bradford, a team from the English League Two.
Yes, Bradford was upset this season and went straight to the EFL Cup final.
In the semi-finals, they met Aston Villa of the Premier League. They defeated Aston Villa 3-1 at home and 1-2 away. They defeated Aston Villa with a total score of 4-3 and miraculously entered the English League.
Cup final.
In the quarter-finals, they miraculously drew 1-1 with Arsenal at home. Then neither side scored in overtime. In the end, they defeated Arsenal 3-2 in a penalty shootout and successfully advanced to the top four.
powerful.
In the fourth round, they also met the Premier League team Wigan Athletic. They drew with their opponent 0-0 and then won the penalty shootout 4-2 to advance.
Then in the third round, they drew with Burton 2-2, and finally defeated their opponent 3-2 in a penalty shootout and successfully advanced to the fourth round.
In the second round, they defeated Watford of the English Championship 2-1 away from home and successfully advanced.
In the first round, they drew 0-0 with Notts County in 90 minutes, and then narrowly defeated their opponent 1-0 in overtime.
To be honest, it is amazing that Bradford, a League Two team, can reach this point.
They can be said to be the biggest dark horses in the English League Cup this season.
They are even the strongest penalty takers in the EFL Cup this season. Look at how many times they defeated their opponents on penalty kicks and successfully advanced to the next round. It is really amazing.
I'm so lucky.
And they have been very valuable along the way. Look at what kind of opponents they have encountered. Except for Notts County, other His teams are all teams that are at least in the English Championship and above, and they have even met three Premier League teams earlier.
It's really amazing that they were able to reach the finals.
Currently, Bradford ranks 9th in the English League Two. Their record is 13 wins, 9 draws, 11 losses and 48 points. They are only 4 points behind Northampton, who is 6th in the league. The gap is really not that big.
big.
However, if you know their results after the 23rd round of the league, you will definitely feel that Bradford really paid too much in the League Cup.
After the 23 rounds of the English League Two in the 2012-2013 season, Bradford's record was 11 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses, with 39 points. In other words, in the following 10 rounds, Bradford only scored
With 2 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses, we only got 9 points.
And this period of time happens to be a more frequent and critical time for the EFL Cup.
Obviously, Bradford spent too much energy, manpower and financial resources in the EFL Cup, which led to a significant decline in their league. After all, their main players were competing against Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Arsenal.
Now that Stone Villa has gone, do they have the energy and mind to think about league matters?
They really spent too much energy on the League Cup.
It's a pity, very pity.
If Bradford cannot win the League Cup, these efforts will really not mean much to them. After all, the League Cup runner-up will not be able to participate in the Europa League next season.
If the club misses the opportunity to upgrade to League One because of this runner-up finish, it will really be a loss more than the gain.
Therefore, many people still think that Bradford is a bit ignorant.
However, there are also many media reporters who feel that Bradford people are what they are after.
And they also believe that Bradford has a chance to win the League Cup, and the chance is very good. Did you see that they have even defeated Wigan Athletic, Arsenal and Aston Villa in the Premier League?
Why can't you beat Crystal Palace?
Bradford defeated not one Premier League team, but three.
There is some luck involved, but I don't think it's all luck.
It shows that Bradford is still quite capable.
Your Crystal Palace is a team in the English Championship. Compared with Wigan Athletic, Aston Villa and Arsenal in the Premier League, there is a gap in strength. How could Bradford not have a chance to defeat you?
Bradford also has a chance to win the English League Cup.
So, don't underestimate Bradford.
I can't believe that Bradford, the dark horse, will go all out and step on your Crystal Palace corpse to win the English League Cup in the 2012-2013 season!
