　　 Chapter 165 Youth Guards: Leeds United

　　 The Luton team returned to England by plane the next morning.

　　 The players were so excited the night before that they fell asleep on the plane the next day.

　　 Gao Bo had a good rest. The results of another match in the same group also came out. Basel won Roma 2-0 at home. This result is not surprising to Gao Bo, because although Rome is more famous than Basel, when it comes to strength, the two teams are really evenly matched.

　　 Basel is a giant in the Swiss Super League, and its strength should not be underestimated. It is just that because of the small league of the Swiss Super League, many foreign fans do not understand them. In particular, Basel's home record is particularly strong. In their home stadium, Jacob Park, even a big team like Manchester United did not get any cheap. Moreover, Roma has been in poor condition recently, and Ranieri’s team has lost three straight in the league.

　　 In this way, after the two games of the group, Luton and Basel currently have three points in the standings. Both sides have the same goal difference and number of goals, so the two sides are now tied for the first place in the group.

　　 But the next round of the group stage will be a direct dialogue between the two teams, so Gao Bo also focused on the Basel team.

　　 After returning to Luton, the team took a day off and immediately started preparing for the league game.

　　 Since the most recent games have been one game for about three or four days, the team's training volume is not too great. The team is more to do some more relaxed contact projects, such as small games or something.

"The number of passes in the penalty area must not exceed five! If you haven't shot the goal after five times, or if the shot is blocked by a defensive player other than the goalkeeper and does not hit the goal frame, you will be punished!" On the training ground, Gao Bo announced the rules of the game.

　　 Gao Bo divided the team into two groups to practice fast passing in the penalty area to cultivate the players' tacit understanding. In this way, the general practice method of the game is easy, not to make the players feel too tired, and the effect is also good.

　　 There was a lot of laughter on the training ground. The losing team did push-ups to the cheers of the winner. Of course, they also had a smile on their faces.

　　 Gao Bo observes the effect of training on the sidelines. The opportunities in the penalty area are fleeting, so he hopes his players can learn to handle the ball decisively in the penalty area.

　　 September 21, the eighth round of the league, Luton challenged Leeds away!

The first division has played seven rounds so far, and there are three teams that have not lost yet. Charlton at the top of the list and Leeds United, who are second in the standings, both have six wins, one draw and 19 Luton, who is third in the league, scored 15 minutes with four wins and three draws, so the result of this game is likely to destroy a team's undefeated golden body.

"We will not pay attention to the undefeated record. The team currently ranks third in the league. If we want to climb, we must make a difference when facing the top two teams in the standings." Gao Bo was in the game. Said at the previous press conference.

　　 "We focus on upgrading, no matter what opponent, our goal is to get three points!" Leeds United coach Simon Grayson did not show weakness.
