Chapter 693 Opponent Barcelona
Facts have proved that Li Yi's self-confidence is correct. After all, there is no need to explain the life of cheating. Although Leeds United only scored two goals at the Love Song Stadium, these two goals have ensured that Leeds United won the second round and entered the final of the Champions League.

When Leeds United scored the second goal of the game in the first half, Villarreal was so crushed that the entire second half was meaningless, and even the half-time break failed to restore Villarreal's players.

Compared with Leeds United who lost suspense early, Barcelona and Manchester United were much more intense. In the first round, Ferguson beat Guardiola 2:1.

However, just when everyone thought that the final would become a Premier League civil war again, last season's Champions League was a Premier League civil war, with Manchester United playing against Chelsea.

Barcelona ushered in an explosion in the second round and defeated Manchester United with a score of 3:1. Not only did it successfully prevent the Champions League from becoming a Premier League civil war again, but it was also a step closer to the script in its heart.

Barcelona avenged last season, and it was also in the Champions League semi-finals last season. At that time, Guardiola had just entered Barcelona not long ago.

Coupled with the record in the Premier League, almost everyone is not optimistic about Guardiola, and even lost the first round, but in the end Guardiola counterattacked, and he led his disciples over the mountains of Ferguson and Manchester United.

The victory of this game is of great significance to Guardiola, and it can even be said to be a milestone victory in Guardiola's coaching career, but Guardiola's mountain is more than that. There is a higher and bigger mountain in the Champions League final that he needs to look through.

"Going to Leeds United is undoubtedly of special significance to me. Before returning to Barcelona, ​​I was the head coach of Leeds United. I have agreed with them for nearly three seasons." After the game, Leeds United is naturally a topic that Guardiola cannot escape.

"Bruce? The whole world knows what an excellent head coach he is, and I have indeed learned a lot from him." Although Guardiola did not admit the rumored master-apprentice status, he did not deny it.

"Of course, I am looking forward to the match against Bruce and Leeds United." In the end, Guardiola also expressed his expectation for this match.

Compared to Guardiola's problem, Li Yi's problem is a bit different, with a little more gunpowder. After all, Li Yi is not European, and Li Yi has won two Champions League titles before. At Li Yi's age, it is difficult for anyone to break through.

"Since we entered the final, of course we will win the championship." Li Yi expressed his determination to win the championship.

"Josep is an excellent coach. No one can deny this, and he doesn't need to prove himself by winning. As for the final, I am looking forward to it." However, the affirmation of Guardiola and Barcelona is inevitable.

Li Yi is very clear that the Cosmos team Barcelona started this season, but Li Yi is also very confident in his team, even compared to Barcelona, ​​Li Yi feels that his team is stronger.

Leeds United was built completely according to Li Yi's wishes. Guardiola certainly couldn't do this. However, the benefits of Guardiola who was born in Barcelona are still obvious. This can be seen from the fact that he was at home as soon as he returned to Barcelona.

In terms of the thickness of the lineup, Li Yi believes that Leeds United is better than Barcelona. Although they have Messi, Leeds United also has Bell. Under Li Yi's training, Bell has made great progress this season. According to the current form, Europe may not be familiar with two heroes, but three pillars.

To be honest, the next final is about the status between Messi and Bell. If Barcelona wins the championship, Messi will go on the original track, but if Leeds United wins the championship, the World Player of the Year for a few years may belong to Bell.

Don't forget Leeds United's results this season. When they have already won the League Cup and the League, winning the Champions League is a treble. If they win the FA Cup, it is an unprecedented quadruple.

According to the original situation, Barcelona will win the league and the Copa del Rey this season. If they win the Champions League, they will become the second team to complete the Triple Crown.

In fact, the original Triple Crown should belong to Barcelona, ​​but because of Li Yi's appearance, Real Madrid had already won the Triple Crown a few years ago, and now, Li Yi really wants to deprive Barcelona of the Triple Crown.

If Li Yi really did it, then Li Yi would undoubtedly be cruel to Barcelona, ​​but this is football, if the enemy is not miserable, then the last one will be himself.

Speaking of which, Li Yi has already won the Champions League from Barcelona. In the 05-06 season, which was the third level of Real Madrid's treble, the Champions League was won from Barcelona.

Of course, Barcelona was not the first victim. There was Liverpool before Barcelona, ​​but if Li Yi led Leeds United to win the Champions League, Barcelona would undoubtedly be the worst.

It is still nearly a month before Barcelona can become the biggest sufferer of Li Yi's rise. The Champions League final is on May 5, so there is no rush.

For Leeds United, it is now necessary to finish the remaining three rounds of the league. As for the FA Cup final, it is still after the Champions League final.

In the sixth round of No.30, Leeds United welcomed Stoke City at home. Since the outcome of the game had nothing to do with the league championship, Li Yi once again transferred most of the players from the youth team.

This is quite good news for Stoke City. Although Stoke City has successfully avoided relegation, the Premier League ranking is related to the bonus after the end of the season, so every improvement is good for any club.

But it is a pity that Stoke City did not win Leeds United as they wished. Even from the young swap, the young players of Leeds United still performed very well.

Although the 36 rounds were tied again, Leeds United still ushered in a two-day holiday. Leeds United had played double matches a week before, so there was no holiday, but now, Leeds United has enough time to give players a holiday.

Of course, Li Yi also has enough things to go to Jiang Ying. Jiang Ying will return to England at the end of April, but Li Yi really doesn't have time, even if Jiang Ying comes to Leeds, he doesn't have time to accompany Jiang Ying.

Therefore, during this period of time, Li Yi was ready to accompany Jiang Ying, and Li Yi had already thought of it. When the season was over, he would take Jiang Ying out on a trip.

This can not only make up for the regret of not being able to accompany them during the season, but also enhance their relationship with each other. Li Yi has always felt that he and Jiang Ying have been in a relationship for a long time, but they have too little time to spend together.
