　　 At 6pm UK time on August 18th, the first round of the Europa League qualifying round was officially launched. Dundee United played against the visiting Turkish team Trabzonspor at home.

　　 After this period of continuous adjustment of the lineup, the Dundee United coaching staff has basically determined the team's starting lineup.

　　 The four midfielders, the center-back duo and the goalkeeper have not changed. The coaching staff at the right-back position has decided to use the rookie Keith Watson. Severin's condition has fallen too much and he can no longer be qualified for the starter.

　　 The position of the left back has also been changed, allowing Sean Dillon and Barry Douglas to alternate, and whoever performs well will go to the other side.

　　 Barry Douglas has been looking forward to the first team last season, but they are all substitutes at the left-back position. After a season of training, his strength has also increased a lot, and he can compete with Dillon.

　　 As for the newly added Andrew Robertson, although he is very talented in assists, but the physical confrontation is indeed too weak, and is currently positioned as the second substitute on the left back.

　　 And the most important front line, after the team tried Jonny Russell and Ryan as two newcomers, they decided to let Jamie Vardy and Joan Daley from the regional league team up.

　　Valdy may not be very good at his brain, but his heart is definitely big enough and he is not stage fright at all, which is much better than the two rookies.

　　 and Trabzonspor Sport’s Europa League qualifying match, Peter Houston arranged the latest lineup.

　　 Goalkeeper: Penis;

　　 Defenders: Barry Douglas, Paul Dixon, Gary Kenneth, Keith Watson;

　　 Midfielder: Craig Conway, David Robertson, Stuart Armstrong, Jackie Lee;

　　 Forwards: Vardy, Joan Daly.

　　 Unfortunately, this new lineup did not bring victory to the team.

　　 The main scene was against Trabzonspor. From the scene, Dundee United was the dominant side, but they failed to score.

　　 In the 11th minute of the opening, Li Chenglong shot a long shot from the right in front of the penalty area and played very comfortable. He thought he had the ball, but the ball hit the outside of the goal post and bounced out of the baseline.

In the 32nd minute, Dundee United won a free kick with a good frontcourt position. Lee Chenglong hit a high level again, allowing the ball to curve around the wall and go straight to the upper left corner, but this time it was the opponent goalkeeper Thor. Ja Zekin played bravely and flew over to hold the ball with his hands, making the ball slightly change its direction and then hit the crossbar and bounced back into the penalty area. Then the Turkish defender came quickly to clear.

　　 Li Chenglong guessed that the opponent's goalkeeper should have made an early move, otherwise he should not be able to save the ball.

　　 But this is also because the other party is courageous, the gambling is successful, or that his luck is too bad.

In addition, Lee Chenglong also sent a good cross in the second half. Joan Daly pressured the opponent's defender with a header, but this heavy header was subconsciously lifted by the opponent's Polish defender Glovaki in front of the goal. , Just blocked it out.

　　 Lunar brother also sent Vardy a single shot, but Vardy pushed the far angle ahead of time.

　　, after all, is a forward who has just transferred from the regional league and needs to be sharpened technically.

　　 Trabzonspor Sports also created some opportunities, but they also failed to seize them.

Especially in the last moments of the game, Dundee United has been unable to start the situation. Lee Chenglong was a little anxious to direct the whole team to press on. At this time, the opponent fought a very threatening counterattack, which allowed Turkish forward Altintop to win very well. Fortunately, Penis stood up at a critical moment and threw himself at the opponent's feet to grab the ball.

　　 This ball also shocked the entire Dundee United team in a cold sweat. Peter Houston hurriedly jumped up and down from the sidelines to command it. In the end, the two teams ended with a score of 0:0.

"If you fail to win Trabzonspor at home, Dundee United’s trip to the Europa League this year may be difficult, because everyone knows that Turkey’s away game is very difficult to play, and I think this is also The reason why Bruce Lee was very anxious on the court at the last moment." The Scottish commentator also began to dislike Dundee United.

"Although we did not win at home as we wished, we did not lose. There is still a second round in the game. We still have a chance. As long as we go to the away game and get a goal with a draw, we can still advance." Said this when interviewing reporters after the game.

　　 In fact, Li Chenglong himself knew that if he failed to win at home, he would really have to go to the away game to fight with the Turks. It would be really difficult.

Turkey has the craziest fans in Europe, and the away game there is naturally very difficult. Many European giants have encountered a wall there. Dundee United is slightly weaker than the opponent on paper. I am afraid that the away game It's just like the commentator said.

　　 After the first round of the Europa League play-offs, the overall situation of the Scottish team is not very good.

　　 Dundee United drew 0:0 at home against Trabzonspor. The Glasgow Rangers lost 1:2 to Maribor in the away game. Both teams are currently in a less favorable situation.

　　Only the Celtics have a better situation. They beat Sion 3-0 at home and qualifying for the main game is no longer a problem.

If only the Celtics have entered the European Championship this season, it would be difficult to win the Swiss League in terms of European Championship points, because there are currently four teams in the European Championship play-offs, Barcelona Er and Zurich are in the UEFA Champions League play-offs, while the young men and Sion are in the Europa League play-offs.

Even if the Celtics eliminated Sion, a bit more extreme, the young people who had already drew 0:0 away with Sporting Lisbon in the first leg, and they returned home in the second leg and were eliminated, but there will still be two teams in the Swiss League. Enter the European Championship.

Because even if they lose the UEFA Champions League play-offs, they will directly fall into the Europa League group stage. Basel and Zurich have at least guaranteed their qualifications for the Europa League, and they even played a little better. If it is, it is possible to enter the Champions League.

　　 Therefore, the Scottish League wants to ensure that they continue to suppress the Swiss League in the European Championship. How to say, the two teams must enter the European Championship. This will have a better chance.

　　 A few days later, while the Scottish media were still worried about the European war points problem, there was good news suddenly that Dundee United would no longer have to go to Turkey to play the second round of away games and directly advance to the Europa League this season.

The reason is that last season’s Turkish League champion Fenerbahçe was involved in a match-fixing case~www.NovelMTL.com~ was banned from participating in this season’s Champions League by UEFA, then the second-placed Trabzonspor will automatically go up and go directly. Participated in the Champions League group stage.

　　 Now Dundee United has picked up a bargain, so there is no need to worry about the Turkish Devil’s away game.

　　 In fact, in the summer, a match-fixing scandal broke out in the Turkish low-level league, which had nothing to do with Fenerbahçe.

However, the Turkish Football Association, which is in charge of the investigation, found out that these match-fixes were manipulated by some powerful figures in Turkish football behind the scenes, and among these powerful figures, several people including Chairman Fenerbahçe were included. A club senior.

　　 And it's not just that. Among the low-level players who played fake matches, there are also young players on loan from Fenerbahçe.

　　 Now Fenerbahçe is yellow mud falling into the crotch, not **** but shit.

　　 UEFA first offered advice and let Fenerbahce take the initiative to withdraw from the Champions League this season.

　　 But Fenerbahçe was unwilling. They claimed that it was a personal problem of the team chairman and had nothing to do with the Fenerbahçe club. They would never take the initiative to withdraw from the Champions League.

　　 So UEFA intervened in the investigation, and only recently issued a final judgment, forcibly depriving Fenerbahçe of this season’s Champions League qualification, and the top of Trabzonspor Sports.

"Actually, we are ready to go to Turkey to win away games, but now this situation is not bad, it can make our schedule easier, after all, even if we go to Turkey to win away games, the team will become Very tired."

"There is a saying in China that if you survive a catastrophe, you must be lucky. We are lucky. I believe the team will achieve good results in the Europa League this year." This is the answer of Jackie Lee in an interview with reporters before going to the home league. .
