Chapter 85 The Puskas Award

Dundee United defeated the Celtics 2:1 at home, thereby overwhelming the opponent by one point, and rose to the second place in the Scottish Super League standings.

In this round of the game, everyone thought that the Wanderers would continue to collapse, but they were very tenacious. They regained their form. After defeating the newly promoted Dunfermline 2:1 at home, they temporarily stabilized the situation.

At the same time, Motherwell also won the game smoothly, so he is currently on the standings.

Rangers 39 points, Dundee United 36 points, Celtic 35 points, Motherwell 33 points.

On the whole, the difference is not much, especially after removing the bluffing team of Rangers with 39 points at the top of the list, in fact, there is only a 3-point gap between Dundee United and Motherwell.

After winning the Celtics, Dundee United can have a week's rest.

At this time, the results of the Scottish Football Association's investigation on the previous Wen Limen incident also came out.

It was originally a matter of conclusive evidence, and the so-called investigation was just going through the motions.

The Scottish Football Association and the Scottish Premier League Committee announced that Jackie Chan will be fined £50,000.

Of course, this is only a punishment on the surface. Li Chenglong has actually received the news that within the next two years, the Scottish Premier League Committee will not approve his transfer to Arsenal.

In other words, if he wants to transfer directly from the Soviet Super League to Arsenal, he will have to wait until the winter transfer period of the 2013/14 season at the earliest.

It doesn't matter to Jackie Lee, he can't go to Arsenal, he believes that he has other places to go, the only thing he loves is the fine of £50,000.

He currently only has a weekly salary of 20,000 pounds, and he still has to pay taxes.

Simple calculation, this time Li Chenglong is equivalent to being fined one month's salary.

Soon, the penalties from the Premier League also came down.

Arsenal Club was fined 200,000 pounds, and Wenger himself was fined 120,000 pounds. At the same time, three points of Arsenal's league points will be deducted, and the execution will be suspended for one year.

Li Chenglong was really taken aback when he first heard the news. If Arsenal were to be deducted three points because of this, wouldn't he be really sorry for Arsenal?

But after asking Old John later, I found out that the so-called one-year reprieve actually means that if Arsenal commits another offense within the next year, they will deduct three points, and if they don’t commit that year, they will be fine.

Hearing this, Li Chenglong was relieved.

It's the end of the year again, and the time for the Golden Globe Awards, the biggest personal honor in football, is approaching again.

However, this year's Ballon d'Or is hardly suspenseful. Messi helped Barcelona win the Champions League and La Liga last season. Since the beginning of this season, he has won two small trophies, the Spanish Super Cup and the European Super Cup. The two-week Club World Cup is almost in the bag.

It can be said that Messi has locked this year's Ballon d'Or.

However, there are not only the Golden Globes at the annual awards ceremony, but also other awards, such as Miss World Football, Coach of the Year, Team of the Year, etc.

Of course, there is also the best goal of the year, which is the Puskas Award.

On December 8th, the FIFA official website announced the final three candidates for the 2011 Puskas Award.

Last season, when Barcelona played against Arsenal in the last sixteen of the UEFA Champions League, Messi's dribble broke through and then scored a goal. Rooney's barb scored in the Manchester Derby in the Premier League last season, and last season in the Scottish Premier League. Luna kicked the midfield super world wave.

These three goals became the final three candidates for this year's Puskas Award, and the three scoring goals will also be invited to participate in the annual awards ceremony held in Zurich in January next year.

Although the Puskas Award is not an award with too much gold content, for a player like Li Chenglong who plays in the minor leagues,

It's already a good opportunity to show your face.

After the news was confirmed, the Dundee United Club specially congratulated on the homepage of the official website.

For a small club like Dundee United, it is also rare for a player to be selected for this award.

In fact, Li Chenglong felt that he could be selected into the top three, in addition to scoring beautiful goals, he might also have to thank Wenger.

The Puskas Award is decided by the votes of the fans. In the previous Wen Limen incident, Li Chenglong's reputation has skyrocketed a lot, and it will definitely bring him more or less votes.

On December 10th, in the 18th round of the Soviet Super League, Dundee United went to an away game against Inverness. In this game, Jackie Lee sat on the bench.

This was Peter Houston's arrangement. Firstly, the opponent's strength is not strong, and the team's state has recovered recently. It is not necessary for Jackie Lee to play to win.

The second is the final round of the Europa League in the middle of last week. Peter Houston intends to attack with all his strength and strive to win Twente and grab the top spot in the group.

So Peter Houston arranged for Jackie Lee to play as a substitute, take a rest by the way, and save energy for the Europa League.

Inverness is indeed not strong. Since the beginning of this season, they have been in the second half of the season, and they are obviously a relegation team.

In the absence of Jackie Chan, Dundee United won the game easily 3:1.

In this round of competition, the Rangers, Celtics and Motherwell all won, and the gap between the top four in the standings has not changed.

After easily winning the away game, Dundee United will be fully preparing for the final round of the Europa League group stage in the middle of the week.

In the current Group K ranking, Twente has 13 points with 4 wins and 1 draw, and Dundee United has 10 points with 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Dundee United is only three points behind Twente. As long as they win Twente at home in the last round, they can catch up with the opponent.

In the case of the same score, the relationship between victory and defeat is compared, and Dundee United lost 3:4 when they were a guest in the Netherlands. That is to say, Dundee United only needs to win two goals at home, or win a 3:2, 2:1, 1 :0 A small victory with one goal can rely on the relationship between victory and defeat to overwhelm the opponent and win the first place in the group.

First place in the Europa League may not be as useful as in the Champions League, but if you can, why not?

When Dundee United was preparing for the final round of the group stage, a bad news reached Scotland.

In the last round of the UEFA Champions League group stage played the day before, Manchester United lost to Basel 1:2 when they could qualify with a draw away.

This time, not only Manchester United was eliminated, but the Swiss team was also guaranteed to enter the Champions League knockout round this season. This is definitely a very bad result for the Scottish League, which competes with the Swiss League for European rankings.

Manchester United made a fool of themselves and unintentionally ruined the Scottish League.

This season's Champions League group stage is all over. In addition to the upset exit of the Premier League champion Manchester United, the Bundesliga champion Dortmund was bottomed out in the group, and the French champion Lille was also bottomed out in the group.

In general, the UEFA Champions League group stage this season is quite cold. Three of the five major league champions died in the group stage.

Of the four teams participating in the Premier League, only the London duo made it to the knockout round, while the Manchester duo turned into a pair of bears, and they all rolled down the hill to play in the Europa League.

In the Scottish sports morning news the next morning, the host had no choice but to say: "Due to Manchester United's upset, Basel has entered the Champions League knockout round. If the Scottish League still wants to continue to keep two Champions League places, then Celtic People also have to reach the knockout rounds of the Europa League, otherwise it is almost impossible for us to win the Swiss League with only one Dundee United team.”
