On May 11, the highly anticipated FA Cup final was held at Cardiff Millennium Stadium.

This season, against both sides, Newcastle, a mid-range team from the Premier League and Leeds United, which has won the Championship.

Such a matchup was indeed beyond the expectations of many people.

There is no "big6 team" in the FA Cup final this season, and there is also an English Championship team, which is indeed a huge upset.

However, although it is unpopular, no one thinks that the two teams are weak.

Newcastle defeated Tottenham and Liverpool all the way to enter the FA Cup final. Naturally, no one dared to say anything with such a record.

As for Leeds United, as a Championship team, it is not a matter of "good luck" to advance to the finals by Premier League powerhouses like Southampton and Wolves.

But compared to Newcastle's brilliant promotion path, Leeds United's record is somewhat insufficient.

But it doesn't matter. Leeds United is a dark horse in everyone's mind.

As for a dark horse, it’s all over the place. Why do you have such a brilliant record?

As long as you can end up being defeated and win the FA Cup championship, who cares about so much?

At the press conference before the game, the head coaches of both teams seemed polite, harmonious and a happy scene.

The two sides were joking each other in business, making people wonder whether this game was a warm-up match or an important FA Cup final.

......

In the locker room before the game, Klopp was giving the players a final lecture.

"Young guys, come on the court and show your best performance.

We reached the finals all the way, so of course we were not for the runner-up.

I have only one requirement for you and your goal, that is, to win this game and win the FA Cup.

I know that many people are not good at us now and think that we are not Newcastle's opponents.

However, before, we were not favored, but we still reached the finals. We will definitely win this game.

Newcastle's strength is not much stronger than you, so I hope that from the beginning, you will launch an attack and strive to score early!"

Klopp's words made Leeds United players deeply agree.

Naturally, they don’t think they are inferior to Newcastle’s players. They are all in the finals, so who doesn’t want to win the championship?

In fact, there is no need for Klopp to say more. Each of them is full of fighting spirit.

......

In the side picking, Leeds United got the side picking right, so the kick-off right belongs to Newcastle.

Newcastle did not use this kick-off and quickly hit the football into the penalty area of ​​Leeds United. Instead, he passed the ball all the way back and then slowly attacked upwards.

For both teams, this game is actually an encounter.

Although everyone has collected and learned about each other's intelligence information in advance.

But things on paper and in video recordings are not as real as you can experience them yourself.

It will take until the opponent has fought in the game to know how powerful the opponent is.

Newcastle's head coach Paul did not take it lightly because Leeds United was in poor form in the last two league rounds.

The game was still cautious.

Mainly to prevent land winds.

Lu Feng's speed was too fast. Give him a little space and maybe he could get through it.

Klopp's tactical arrangements in this game have not changed, Leeds United's game is still 442.

The ones who play forward are Lu Feng and Robert.

Both of these two people are good at strength and now they cooperate with each other, so such a forward line should not be underestimated.

442 was originally the lineup that Leeds United has been playing this season.

Leeds United players are already very familiar with this style of play, so they can naturally play their best.

......

As soon as the game started, Leeds United launched a rapid offensive, hoping to score in the early stages of the game, taking advantage of the possible relaxation of Newcastle players.

But unfortunately, in this game, Newcastle's head coach Paul had already taken precautions against this.

At the beginning of the game, Paul asked Newcastle to shrink his defense and successfully defended Leeds United's attack at the opening stage.

Seeing that the attack was not effective, Leeds United returned to the normal pace of the game. Both sides also became cautious, after all, this was an important final.

On Newcastle's side, their forward, Callehon, is also a player with skills and speed, just like Lu Feng.

Before the game, many good media compared Callehon and Lu Feng.

Lu Feng doesn't care about this comparison, but Karehon is very upset.

As the star of Newcastle, he has been famous for a long time and can be regarded as the number one figure in world football.

Who is Lu Feng? He is just a new star player who has shown his talents. I don’t know how many such players will appear in the world football world every day.

So, when Callehon saw the media and compared him with Lu Feng, Callehon decisively made a statement on his social media.

"I don't know if Lu Feng is a so-called genius, but even a genius is nothing before he grows up. Therefore, in a game like the FA Cup final, Lu Feng should be more low-key."

Callehong's words were naturally reprinted by many media. Everyone thought that this was Callehong's dissatisfaction with Lu Feng, and some media reporters wanted to ask Lu Feng about his opinion on this matter.

However, Lu Feng did not fall into the trap, just said that everything would be known on the day of the game. He respected Karehong Yunyun very much, and seemed to be showing his weakness.

Therefore, when the football fell at Callejon's feet in this game, the local commentator of Castile on the commentary seat was excited.

"Calejon! He got the ball for the first time in this game! Let's see what wonderful performance he will bring to us!"

The Newcastle fans who came with the team also cheered and cheered on Callehon.

As the star of Newcastle, Callehon has attracted much attention from players, and Newcastle fans naturally like to cheer for him.

Callehong played against the right winger, which was inconsistent with Lu Feng, and he was corresponding to Leeds United's left back Gomez.

Two people are separated by a court.

Callehon was furious and wanted to let Lu Feng see his abilities, so when he took the ball to face Gomez, he did not pass the football.

Instead, he dribbled the ball towards Leeds United's young full-back.

When he approached Gomez, his left foot was paddling towards the football, but he did not touch the football, just a fake move on a bicycle.

Sure enough, his right foot also paddled over the football and rode his bicycle twice in a row!

Then Karehon's right foot suddenly kicked back, and his heel knocked the ball to the left side of his body.

His left heel kicked out with force and suddenly changed to cut inward!

This action is used to knock the ball from behind the heel, and the visual effect is very good.

But because this action itself is awkward, Karehon must adjust the pace in small steps.

The speed slowed down.

Gomez was shaken by Callehon at first, but although he was young and experienced, he quickly made up for it and continued to stand in front of Callehon.

Callejon was not in a hurry and continued to cut in.

Gomez knew what Callejon was going to do, so he refused to let him continue to cut inward, so he simply came up to intercept the ball.

This time, Callehon's foot movements were faster than Gomez. With his right foot pulled, he pulled the ball away from Gomez, continued to cut inward, and avoided Gomez.

Next, facing Leeds United centre-back Eisenmond who came to make up for defense, Callehon raised his right foot and shot!

"Calejon's shot!" the British commentator exclaimed.

During the process of cutting inward, Karehon suddenly cut the football with the outer instep of his right foot!

The football drew an external arc in the air, bypassed Eisenmond, and headed straight to the back corner of the Leeds United goal!

This is what Callehon is most proud of and is best at cutting inside the right side with an arc shot with the outer instep of his right foot!

This is his signature skill. Most people rarely play like this, and they rarely play at him so well!

Regarding this, the entire Leeds United team did special practice when preparing for the game.

Seeing Callehon cut inward, goalkeeper Renner moved forward to the back corner. Sure enough, Callehon's shot came to the back corner. He soared into the air, stretched his arm as much as possible, and finally poked the ball out with his fingertips!

I have to say that the arc of Callehon's kick is indeed quite high. Reina moved ahead of time before he could barely block the football.

If this hadn't moved ahead, maybe the football would have been swung directly through his fingers and then flew into the goal?

Reina, who had been following the football in the air, saw this scene and was a little scared.

.....

"What a pity! Callehon's shot! It's just a little short!" The local commentator in Newcastle on the commentator's seat held his head with his hands and shouted in annoyance.

"Oh! Beautiful! Callehon's genius shot almost opened the first record for Newcastle at the beginning of the game!"

"It's obvious that this was originally a tentative attack, but Callehon's talent turned this offense into a very threatening attack! This is the role of genius!"
