Chapter 635: Guest Marseille

Leeds have no time to celebrate their four-game winning streak, because the much-anticipated Champions League group stage is coming, just in the next week after the match with Newcastle United.

The opponent is Marseille from Ligue 1. Lieutenant Marseille is an old force in Ligue 1. Once upon a time, he was also the dominant Ligue 1. In recent years, it has been ups and downs, and performance has been good and bad.

But even if Marseille is still a Ligue 1 powerhouse, its strength still cannot be underestimated. Of course, with Li Yi's cautious character, he cannot be underestimated, let alone this is the first UEFA Champions League competition in recent years.

Li Yi is focused on preparing for the battle, and Marseille is not careless. Although Leeds has been away from the Champions League for a long time, Li Yi's name is there, not to mention Leeds' performance in the Premier League is so outstanding.

In this tense atmosphere, Li Yi took Leeds's players on a plane to Marseille. In the first game of the Champions League group stage, Leeds will be visiting the Velodrome stadium.

"The Champions League, let alone Leeds players, I have been away from the Champions League for a few years," Li Yi said with a sneer and nervousness during the pre-match interview.

Speaking of French media, Li Yi is still very fond of Li Yi. Now French core Ribery is cultivated by Li Yi, Valbuena and Lamy are also standing staff of the French national team, and these three are all trained by Li Yi. It can even be said that without Li Yi, there would be no three of them.

After all, before Li Yi was brought to Italy, one was moving cement at the construction site, one was just swept out by the club, and the last one was a gardener.

Seriously, not only France is grateful to Li Yi, but even Italian media is grateful to Li Yi, because the people Li Li brought up in Cagliari are now the mainstay of the national team.

In contrast, there is no such thought in Spain, but the Real Madrid club itself determines that Li Yi cannot be like Cagliari, which is no wonder.

As for Leeds United, it is now a big international player. The players in the team have been selected into the national team, and many of them have become the main force or even the core of the national team.

For example, Bell, the younger Bell has established itself as the new core of the Welsh national team, as is Modric, and the positions occupied by other players are becoming more and more important.

Regarding Li Yi's humility, the English media obviously did not buy it, but did not say it. After fighting with Li Yi for more than half a season, this group of people naturally know that Li Yi is definitely not a person to admit.

This is actually reflected in the starting list of Leeds United. Although Li Yi has made a lot of rotations in this starting list, both Beckham and Irving are still on the team.

"I know, you must be very nervous now," Li Yi looked at the disciples and said in the dressing room of the visiting team.

"I call you a way. Don't be a Champions League. Just be a league. Normally we play in the league, how we play this game," Li Yi laughed.

"I have analyzed with you before the Marseille strength. They are at most the level of the second group of the Premier League, but we have now broken into the first group, even more so than we are now the league leader."

"So guys, don't think too much, come out and show your strength intuitively, then the final victory must belong to us."

With these words from Li Yi, the tension on the faces of Leeds players has calmed down a bit. Seeing this, Li Yi has achieved his purpose.

Appropriate tension helps the players to play, and this tension can no longer be changed with words. When the players are playing on the court and feel the strength of the opponent, they can really understand the meaning of Li Yi's words.

Soon, the players from both sides came to the court, and under the auspices of the Danish referee, the captains of the two sides guessed the coin. Unfortunately, Leeds did not win the opening ball.

Marseille, who had the right to open the ball, quickly scored in the half of Leeds United. Marseille has had ups and downs over the years, but the Champions League experience is still very rich.

Besides, Marseille's strength is not too weak. For example, Ben Alpha, one of France's four little swans, launched the first wave of Marseille's attack.

However, the first wave of offense does not represent the first shot. The advantages and disadvantages of Ben Alpha are obvious. His feet are very good and his dribbling is outstanding. Because of this, he likes to control the ball under his feet.

This wave of offense is that in the situation where the Leeds United defender has been clearly broken, he continues to dribble without passing the ball, and is forced to the corner by the Leeds United player.

It stands to reason that talented players like Ben Alpha could not let go, but this summer, Lyon did not prevent Ben Alpha from leaving.

In fact, this has already explained the problem very much. It was even said that the then Lyon head coach Hollier had made it clear that he was not optimistic about the future of Ben Alpha, which is one of the reasons why Ben Alpha was sold to Marseille.

The four-character alpha is most suitable, but the 87 generations of the four little swans are also a good Benzema.

Therefore, all these are the pots of Benzema, without the life of that pot dare to dare to be as famous as the first pot man of football.

Compared to Ben Alpha ’s flashy, the winger on the side of Leeds is actually much more. In the seventh minute, Gareth Bell did not have any extra actions after receiving the pass. He accelerated the defensive player and then passed directly.

Irving is not tall, but dare to fight for it, let alone Marseille's defense line is not outstanding, the height of the first altitude is only 186 Zubar.

"Mandanda ~~~ Beautiful save" Irving's header was very good ~ www.readwn.com ~ The ball went straight to the corner, but unfortunately, the goalkeeper of Marseille fluttered better.

Two minutes later, Leeds United ushered in the first free kick of the game. This time Beckham did not take the penalty and Bell stood in front of the ball.

In fact, Beckham can also take this penalty point, but Bell's success rate of free throws in this position is quite high. Besides, Beckham had an agreement with Li Yi long ago.

Of course, Beckham is also happy to bring these juniors. Seriously, the talents of these players at Leeds United, as the teammate Beckham knows best, but can be said to be improving every day.

"Also young" Speaking of these ten minutes, Leeds players are no longer nervous at the opening, but when faced with opportunities, young players like Gareth Bell have not played to a real level.

Regarding the situation on the court, Marseille was somewhat unacceptable, because Marseille has taken the initiative since the opening, but in fact it was Liz United who completed the shot. In the first ten minutes, Liz United took a shot with two feet, and Marseille did not have any shots.
