Ball king grower

Now that the quarterfinals are out, the next step is naturally the drawing of matches.

The result of the draw was very interesting. Chelsea met not Barcelona or Bayern Munich, but Roma from Serie A. I wonder if Platini was worried that his favorite team would be eliminated, but he didn’t dare to like him anyway.

When the two teams met Chelsea, Roma, who was in hot form, was arranged as Chelsea's opponent.

How is Rome now?

Let’s start with the league. Last season, Roma’s season could be described as terrifying. It was just like Chelsea in the Premier League. They destroyed everyone they saw and finally won the most proud league championship.

At the beginning of this season, throughout the first half of the season, there was no team that could pose a threat to Roma, whether it was AC Milan, Inter Milan, or the rising Naples.

Meeting Roma is definitely Chelsea's misfortune.

Of course, meeting Chelsea was also Roma's misfortune.

The two best performing teams in the league have to fight it out in the Champions League. This has to be said to be a very sad tragedy.

Barcelona's opponent is Benfica from the Portuguese Super League. There should be no problem with this. Although Benfica is considered a giant in the Portuguese Super League, it is still not enough to see Barcelona.

Bayern Munich's opponent is the Premier League powerhouse Arsenal. For Bayern now, Arsenal is also not very attractive. Although Arsenal purchased Benzema and Khedira this season, their overall strength still tends to be weak.

, coupled with the insufficient thickness of the bench, their condition is definitely not as good as Bayern Munich.

The rich aristocrat Real Madrid met the equally wealthy Paris Saint-Germain. The duel between Cristiano Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic was somewhat interesting. Although Ibrahimovic is now in his thirties, this guy is still in really good condition.

He is more stable than many forwards, and of course Cristiano Ronaldo is the same. It is also very interesting to see what kind of game the two veterans can play in this era of frequent monsters.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League, that is, the quarter-finals, will kick off in April. For Chelsea, they can use this period to deal with the domestic competition, and also practice the tactics and strategies against Roma.

tactics.

Before the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Chelsea had two league matches and one FA Cup match, and the FA Cup match was still the quarter-finals. We must pay close attention to it, although the FA Cup and the league or

The Champions League is incomparable, but it is still a championship after all. For Chelsea, who are currently in a hot state. As long as it is a championship, they must try to win it.

In addition, if we can successfully widen the points gap with Arsenal and other teams in the league, it will also be very helpful for Chelsea to compete in the Champions League.

In the 30th round of the Premier League, Chelsea defeated Cardiff City 4:1 at home. Lin Yu scored twice, extending his season goal tally to 35. As a result, there are eight rounds left in the league.

Next, he only needs to score five more goals to realize the dream of 40 goals that was not achieved last season.

Of course, Arsenal also maintained victory in this round and was not left behind by Chelsea. It has to be said that Arsenal really has its own unique method when dealing with mid-to-lower teams. Anyway, it is relatively easy to fight.

It is not easy for them to lose points against such a team.

Next, there is the FA Cup quarter-finals. Both teams have not been eliminated yet, but in order to cope with the next round of league games, they have chosen to send out substitute lineups to play.

You must know that Chelsea's opponent in the next round of the league is Manchester City. And Arsenal's opponent is Tottenham. The opponents of the two teams are not weaklings. When it comes to choices, they must give up.

Speaking of the substitute lineup, Chelsea is much better than Arsenal, and the difference in strength between Chelsea's substitute lineup and the main lineup is actually not that big, so after the FA Cup quarter-finals, Chelsea easily advanced to the semi-finals, while Arsenal

Nathan fell on the road to this game.

However, some media commented: "Although they were eliminated from the FA Cup, this is not necessarily a bad thing. For Arsenal, they can focus more on the league and the Champions League. Their opponent in the Champions League is Bayern Munich."

, this is an opponent that must be taken seriously and must not be taken lightly at all."

Bad things can turn into good things only if the media opens their mouths. In fact, if you are eliminated, you are eliminated. It is not a good thing at all. No team wants to be eliminated from a certain event, and Arsenal is also

It's the same, but it's a pity that Arsenal's bench is too thin. For the sake of the league and the Champions League, they can only cut off their strength.

After the FA Cup quarter-finals, there will be the thirty-round match of the league. Chelsea will face Manchester City at home, and Arsenal will face Tottenham at home.

Perhaps in order to take care of the Champions League, the Football Association cleverly arranged the game between Chelsea and Arsenal to start at the earliest possible time, and the two teams kicked off almost at the same time.

…

The game lasted just ten minutes.

"Oh? Benzema scored?" Mourinho couldn't help but smile after hearing his assistant coach's report.

"That's right, just five minutes into the game, Benzema broke the silence on the court with a shot from the edge of the penalty area at an almost zero angle."

"If you get in, just get in. It's not a big problem. Even if they win this game, there is still a big gap between them and us." Mourinho is not anxious at all. He may be more concerned about himself.

The team's performance in the current game.

"That's true, but Arsenal don't have to play in the FA Cup, and they will probably be eliminated against Bayern in the Champions League. I'm afraid they will still fight for this league championship to the end."

"It's okay, can't we just win the game?" Mourinho smiled again. Although Chelsea was slightly passive in the current situation on the field, he believed in his team.

In Mourinho's tactical thinking, defense is the most important, because if you defend well, you can first make yourself invincible and then deal with your opponent.

His ability to be so confident certainly has something to do with Chelsea's watertight defense so far.

"You are so confident. I'm a little worried now."

"Don't be so nervous. After all, Tottenham are one of the top players in the Premier League. How could they be willing to lose to Arsenal so easily? The game is still long."

Facts have proved that Mourinho's judgment was completely correct. After just five minutes, the original situation changed drastically. Tottenham equalized the score in the away game. Chelsea relied on a beautiful counterattack, led by Xu Er.

Le passed the ball to Lin Yu and scored a beautiful goal.

In this way, Arsenal played 1:1 Tottenham at home, while Chelsea played 1:0 Manchester City at home. The previous worries seemed to have disappeared.

However, Mourinho still looks calm. It seems that for him, such a score is not reassuring enough. He will not worry because the team did not score a goal, nor will he worry because the team scored a goal.

I'm just complacent. At least for now, Manchester City is playing well, especially the cooperation of Silva, Aguero and others in the frontcourt. It's really exciting.

"One more! Lin Yu! One more!" All the fans roared loudly, cheering Lin Yu, and the sound filled the entire stadium.

Aguero looked up at the fans and looked a little annoyed. The team was lagging behind. He was not in a good mood. He heard such shouts again. Naturally, he felt very unhappy. He wanted to score.

, I want to score goals for the team and I want to beat Chelsea.

Even if others think Chelsea is invincible, he is unwilling to admit it. For him, no team is invincible. He has scored goals in Chelsea, Bayern, and Barcelona, ​​but the team always fails.

It looked very scattered and couldn't be put together, which made him very annoyed.

Just give it a try yourself!

Aguero looked at Chelsea's goal and thought in his heart.

Originally, Manchester City's short passing coordination in the frontcourt was indeed excellent, but today it was obviously targeted by Chelsea. It is really difficult to score a goal. Rather than continuing to waste time on passing the ball, it would be better

Let's take a long shot.

There is no doubt that Aguero is capable and very capable.

About thirty minutes into the first half, Aguero really had to take a long shot under Cahill's pressure.

This long-range shot can be said to be very powerful. Although Cech made a save, he was completely unable to block Aguero's shot.

"The goal is scored! Aguero!" Manchester City's commentators were very excited. In their view, even a draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge is still a victory, because in the past few seasons, since Mourinho coached Chelsea

, they are really unhappy after losing consecutive games here. Even if it is just a draw, they would be extremely happy.

"Oh, the role of stars!" Mourinho spread his hands, a little helpless. Aguero's goal, like Lin Yu's long-range shot, was completely unreasonable and raw. No matter how powerful the defender is,

It's impossible to prevent it, unless you predict it in advance and then adopt foul tactics, but who can predict this ball and it will score.

Long-range shots are always sudden and involve luck. This has to be admitted. Even Lin Yu's long-range shots also have a strong element of luck. However, luck is also a part of strength. Long-range shots can score goals.

, that’s it, don’t worry about anything else at all.

The 1:1 score remained until the end of the first half, with neither side scoring another goal.

The games between Arsenal and Tottenham are exactly the same. The home team scored first, and then the away team equalized. The result has not changed much so far.

In the locker room, someone told Wenger the score of the game between Chelsea and Manchester City, but Wenger just frowned and shook his head and said: "It's better to forget about Chelsea's game now. The point gap between us and Chelsea is not two or three points."

, play your own game first."

Although Manchester City's draw with Chelsea is good news for Arsenal, and it is also good news for Wenger, after all, Arsenal itself is currently in trouble, and it is difficult to protect itself. How can they have the leisure to care about it?

If other people's games ended like this, at most it would mean that Chelsea failed to widen the points gap with them, and they would not be able to catch up by even one point.

After the start of the second half, the two sides changed sides. Chelsea still played very easily. They faithfully fulfilled Mourinho's instructions, which is to ensure that there are no problems with defense at all times, and then consider the next step.

When it comes to football, only if you can withstand this test can you achieve good results.

What's more, for Chelsea, it doesn't matter even if the game is tied. Anyway, they have a huge advantage and the opponent is Manchester City. There is nothing embarrassing about being tied.

On Arsenal's side, the offensive has been completely launched. After all, at their home court, at the Emirates Stadium, they will definitely not lose to Tottenham, even if it is a draw.

Although Mourinho and Wenger are both great coaches, their coaching ideas are obviously different. Wenger pursues offense more, while Mourinho hopes that the team can defend well first.

Wenger believes that offense is the best defense, while Mourinho believes that only by knowing how to protect your team can you win in difficult games.

Two different ideas also achieved two different results. Twenty minutes into the second half, Arsenal finally relied on a wonderful short pass from Ozil and Ramsey scored a goal, while Chelsea and Manchester City

The competition is still a draw. (To be continued. If you like this work, (.) vote for recommendation, monthly vote, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m.. to read.
