    "In ten minutes, the thirty-eighth round of the 2004-05 English Premier League, which is the final round, is about to begin."

    The bearded Mark Lawrenson said into the microphone in front of him: "More than half of the ten games in this round are related to the fate of each team this season except for the four teams fighting for relegation.  In addition to the four games, Bolton vs. Everton, Liverpool vs. Villa and Middlesbrough vs. Manchester City are related to which of the five teams: Bolton, Everton, Liverpool, Middlesbrough, and Manchester City.  Three teams will participate in the UEFA Cup next season Of course, among these games, there is not the most important one. The most important game is Newcastle's home game against Chelsea, which is well-deserved for this round.  The highlight of the game, if Newcastle can win this game, they will win the league championship this season with three-digit points, while Chelsea will also win the league championship with three-digit points regardless of victory or draw.  ¡ª¡ªBy the final round of the league, both teams competing for the championship have the opportunity to score three-digit points. This is unique in the history of professional leagues across the European continent. No matter what the result is, this season Newcastle and  Chelsea¡¯s pursuit will become the most beautiful scene in the history of the Premier League!¡±

    "Gary, Mark, who do you think is more likely to win the league championship after the game?" Alan Hansen turned to his two partners after listening to Laurenson's words.

    Gary Lineker smiled: "I think most fans will be optimistic about Chelsea After all, they only need to get a draw Mark, what about you?"

    "I have the exact opposite view of you." Lawrenson maintained his usual style of "going against" Lineker: "I am more optimistic about Newcastle, precisely because they have to win to win the championship, so that there will be  Courage enough to last until the end of the game.¡±

    "But this will also easily make them panic after conceding the ball first and then collapsing, or after scoring first and being equalized." Lineker disagreed and said: "Benitez is very good at taking advantage of this."

    "Mourinho is also good at fighting tough battles." Lawrenson said: "Don't forget how they taught Barcelona and Bayern Munich a lesson at home. At home, they have not lost a season."

    "But Benitez took away a crucial draw from St James' Park in the Champions League." Lineker retorted: "Who can prove that he can't do it again? Let alone Chelsea.  We have only lost one FA Cup game so far.¡±

    What else did Lineker want to say when he saw it.  Lawrenson immediately interrupted him: "But Chelsea still have a Champions League final to play! And Newcastle is the last game of the season, they can take advantage of this. I don't think Mourinho is  I'll let that go."

    "Okay. Now the players from both sides have played Now, let us see whether Gary's judgment is more correct or Mark's judgment is good enough, or in other words, whether Mourinho can win in this game.  In the game, he defeated Benitez, whom he had never defeated before Throughout Europe, there were only a handful of famous head coaches that he had not defeated. In the Premier League, there was only one opponent left that Benitez had not defeated.  I think it is impossible for the arrogant Mourinho to remain indifferent to this."

    At St. James Park Stadium, Newcastle fans wearing black and white Newcastle jerseys can be seen everywhere.  Chelsea fans gathered in a small stand. Compared with the second leg of the Champions League semi-final at Stamford Bridge, the current Chelsea fans at St. James Park showed more momentum than the Newcastle fans in that game.  Even more pitiful.

    There is almost no blue in the stands of the entire stadium, only black and white filling everyone's eyes.

    The reason for this situation is that St. James Park can accommodate 10,000 more fans than Stamford Bridge. The bigger reason is that Pei Wei can do more than Abramovich. Newcastle Club gave Chelsea  The tickets provided by the club were only a mere 1,000, and the sale of loose tickets was strictly controlled, making it impossible for Chelsea fans to buy tickets.

    So when Pei Wei smiled and welcomed Abu into the stand box.  The Russians don't look good.

    Pei Wei doesn't care whether Abramovich looks good or not. In his opinion, since the chance to win the Champions League has been given to Chelsea (in Pei Wei's opinion, it's just giving up ground), then you can't take the league championship from me anymore.  Was it snatched from your hand?  It's good enough to give you a thousand tickets and also give your chairman a box with the best seat. If it weren't for the FA's regulations that the home team must provide tickets to visiting team fans, Pei Wei wouldn't even give up these one thousand tickets.  Woolen cloth.

    You need to know that the earth ticket for this game can beMoney is very precious. As the most popular club in England, many wealthy fans in other parts of the UK saw that Newcastle had a chance to win the first league championship in 78 years.  Everyone couldn't sit still and tried to find a way to get a ticket. The price of the ticket was raised to an incredible height. As a profiteer, Pei Wei would not let go of this opportunity.  Anyway, it is difficult for these out-of-town Newcastle fans to go to watch the game.  If you don¡¯t kill it, you won¡¯t kill it.

    One is willing to fight, the other is willing to suffer.  Therefore, Pei Wei was quite reluctant to squeeze out these 1,000 tickets for Chelsea fans.

    "This time it's our turn to maximize our home court advantage." After leaving the box where Abramovich was sitting, Pei Wei thought as he walked into the stadium.

    In order to prepare for this game, Newcastle has made the lawn extremely smooth. Even if Newcastle has only a slight technical advantage when facing Chelsea, it must maximize this slight advantage.

    When Pei Wei appeared on the sidelines of the court, players from both sides were already standing in the center of the court, waiting for the game to start.

    Pei Wei took a deep breath. The air in the stadium was so hot that it seemed to be burning. He was excited - the fans of Newcastle were as cute as the fans of Yunjia Tianyu. He liked this city, although it could not be compared with Yunjia.  , but Pei Wei knew that from now on, this city would become an important part of his life.

    There is no change in the lineup of both sides. Mourinho is still the same, goalkeeper Cech, four defenders Maicon, Lucio, Dawson and Bernard, midfielders Makelele, Essien, Ribery and Nie.  Fei, the forwards are Ibrahimovic and Drogba. After a week's rest, Newcastle's main team is complete, no one has injuries, and their morale is high - they have been waiting for this game for ten days.  Chelsea have been waiting since the day they were eliminated from the Champions League final, and Newcastle fans have been waiting even longer for this game - they have been waiting for seventy-eight years.

    As for Chelsea, Robben, who has performed well this season but has always been troubled by injuries, appears in the lineup, forming Chelsea's offensive line with Duff and Toney. Behind them are Lampard and Deco.  and Xavi Alonso, the defense is composed of Johnson, Terry, Carvalho and Gala, the goalkeeper is Italian goalkeeper Cudicini, Spain's third goalkeeper Reina failed to play due to injury.

    But this does not mean that Newcastle will have an opportunity. In the entire Premier League, Newcastle and Chelsea have the most luxurious goalkeeper configurations. Manchester United has been troubled by the goalkeeper position after Schmeichel retired and was guarded by Arsenal.  The goalkeeper is also the veteran German goalkeeper Lehmann, and the substitutes are very weak. Only the two upstarts Newcastle and Chelsea can be so generous in having two goalkeepers who can play the main role in the goalkeeper position. Needless to say, Newcastle's Cech and Given, Cech  His outstanding performance this season has caused some people to compare him with the world's number one goalkeeper Buffon. Given has always been one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League, and Chelsea's two goalkeepers Reina and Cudicini are also good players.  , Although Cudicini was pushed to the bench by Reina this season, he is a very qualified goalkeeper substitute.

    Before the game started, it was customary for the two head coaches to shake hands and greet each other. Just when everyone else thought that Mourinho and Benitez would just touch hands and be done with it like they did in the Champions League game.  The people's hands are tightly held together.

    "After losing the Champions League, I will not lose the league again." Mourinho said first.

    "It depends on the result of the game." Benitez immediately fired back.

    Mourinho laughed, but Benitez rarely hit back at him so sharply. His eloquence was not bad, but more often than not he was hiding something behind the scenes¡ª¡ªit seems to be related to the competition for the league championship.  , Benitez is not so calm either.

    The two looked at each other deeply, then let go of their hands and strode towards their positions.

    After Benitez sat down in his seat, he inadvertently glanced at the Newcastle coaching bench and saw Pei Wei raising his hand to greet him, smiling brightly.

    When Abu in the box saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown.

    "You want to drive a wedge between them? It's impossible. Rafael and Abramovich are in their honeymoon period now." Mourinho moved his lips and said calmly.

    "I'm not that naive." Pei Wei laughed: "I just want to give Abu a little trouble."

    At this time, when the referee was on duty, the famous English referee Boll confirmed that the players on both sides were in place, and then blew the whistle to start the game.

    "The game has begun! The decisive battle has officially begun!"
