At present, after 26 rounds of the Premier League, Blackburn Rovers continues to be second only to Blackburn Rovers with 56 points with 16 wins, 8 draws and 2 losses. In the Champions League, Blackburn also eliminated Napoli in Serie A with a score of 3:1 over two legs and reached the quarterfinals.

March has been an uneventful time in the Premier League's long season, but this year has been no different for Blackburn Rovers as they battle it out for their first trophy of the season after reaching the League Cup final!

The final of the English League Cup will be played at Wembley Stadium on 1 March, with Blackburn Rovers taking on Tottenham Hotspur.

Both teams have won the Carabao Cup four times, with Tottenham reaching the final for the eighth time, to Blackburn's sixth.

Tottenham Hotspur starting line-up (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Lloris

Defenders: Ben Davis, Dier, Vertonghen, Walker

Defenders: Bentaleb, Ryan Mason

Defenders: Townsend, Eriksen, Chadley

Forward: Soldado

Blackburn Rovers starting line-up (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Cech

Defenders: Cesar Azpilicueta, Alderweireld, Raphael Varane, Bellerin

Defenders: Alonso, Casemiro

Defenders: De Bruyne, Coutinho, Raheem Sterling

Forward: Antoine Griezmann

"Good opportunity, Griezmann received a long pass from Alonso and began to dribble towards Tottenham's penalty area!"

It turned out to be the 4th minute of the game, Casemiro cut off Tottenham's attack at the back and handed it to Alonso, who directly kicked a long pass over the top and passed the ball to Tottenham's backfield.

As soon as the game began, Tottenham began to attack aggressively, and even the defenders moved to the midfield position, which allowed Alonso to make a long pass with a big foot, and the football went directly past all the Tottenham defenders, landed in no man's land, and began to slowly roll towards the goal.

The football is more than 20 metres away from Lloris, almost 10 metres from the nearest Tottenham defender and a full 10 metres from Antoine Griezmann.

At this time, both Griezmann and Tottenham defenders began to chase the football frantically, and Griezmann was the first to catch up with the football and began to rush to the Tottenham penalty area.

"Be careful!" Griezmann, who was running, suddenly heard Sterling's anxious shouts, and at the same time heard a low gasp in his ears.

Griezmann didn't hesitate and quickly jumped up, trying to dodge the tackle behind him. But when Griezmann just jumped up, a huge force came from his feet, causing Griezmann to lose his balance and fall to the ground heavily, and the referee's whistle sounded at this time.

It turned out that Tottenham defender Walker saw that there was no way to stop Griezmann's goal, and directly slid a tackle to the end and tripped Griezmann.

The dazzling yellow card appeared in front of Walker with the referee's hand, but at the same time, Walker's eyes appeared in front of the palms of many Blackburn players rushing up and pushing, and the other Tottenham players hurriedly surrounded Walker to protect him from violation.

"It's okay!" Alonso, the captain of the field, looked at Griezmann with a nervous expression, while the other Blackburn players also looked at Griezmann nervously.

"It's fine, just a fall." Griezmann got up with the strength of Alonso and said, in fact, Walker's tackle just now did not hurt people, and the sole of his shoe did not show up, it was just an ordinary tactical foul. The reason why Blackburn are so nervous in the squad is only because Griezmann has just recovered from injury.

"Great, our 'little grid' is fine, praise be to God!"

When Griezmann fell, all the Blackburn fans couldn't help but feel a tangle in their hearts.

Klopper, who had been nervous, relaxed when he saw Griezmann stand up and talk to Alonso with a smile on his face.

Antoine Griezmann won a free-kick for Blackburn Rovers from around 25 metres from goal, and it was directly opposite the goal, and in such an area, whether it was a direct shot or a pass, it was very threatening to the goal.

In Bale's absence, Kevin De Bruyne and Philippe Coutinho both stood in front of the ball, quietly waiting for the Tottenham players to slowly line up the wall while approaching each other, covering their mouths with their hands and talking all the time.

In the penalty area, Griezmann quietly walked to the edge of the penalty area, and at the same time, the two Tottenham defenders who were close to protect Griezmann also unknowingly followed Griezmann to the edge of the penalty area, not noticing that Griezmann did this on purpose, in order to lure away Tottenham's defensive strength in the penalty area.

The forbidden area, which was originally very dense, suddenly seemed a little empty as the three of Griezmann left like this.

Coutinho took the lead with the referee's whistle, but after passing over the ball, De Bruyne then hit the ball with a hard kick that scurried towards the ground and into the box.

As Coutinho approached the ball, most of the players in the box jumped up and by the time De Bruyne actually blasted the ball, there was no cover on the ground.

Standing on the goal line, Lloris didn't see it at all, because there were so many people in the penalty area, Lloris didn't notice that the football had begun to fly towards the goal.

When Lloris saw the football, it was only a metre or two away from the goal, and at a distance of a metre or two, what could the goalkeeper do?

Lloris could only watch as the ball went into the net.

“goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooa1！”

"De Bruyne's shot, the football flew into the net like a cannonball, and in the face of this goal, the Tottenham goalkeeper could do nothing but watch in amazement as the football flew into the net behind him!"

After seeing the goal, De Bruyne ran to the side of the pitch with great excitement, raised his right fist, and swung it upwards fiercely, not knowing what he was screaming. Soon, though, he was picked up in Coutinho's arms.

Klopp, who was on the sidelines, saw that his team had scored just five minutes into the game, which made him very excited, roaring again and again, and accidentally dropped his glasses on the ground.

This time his team is ahead, it is time for Tottenham to have a headache, and now Tottenham must attack even more.

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino couldn't sit still, signaled his players to press hard and called the captain to the sidelines to plan an equaliser before half-time.

It was clear that Tottenham were ready to attack in the first half of the year.

Watching Tottenham's adjustment, Klopp also stood on the sidelines and shouted: "Antony, you give me a top!" Head into the Tottenham penalty area, it's none of your business to defend! ”

Griezmann, who was standing in the middle circle, heard Klopp's words, and as Klopp's favorite general, he naturally nodded to indicate that he knew.

With the referee's whistle blowing, it was clear that the Spurs players were in a frenzied attack.

Fortunately, Blackburn was prepared for such a crazy move by Tottenham, with veteran Alonso in the midfield and Alderweireld in the backfield, Tottenham's crazy attack became a situation of thunder and rain.

Tottenham's attack did look like it was on the rise, but it didn't really pose much of a threat to the Blackburn backline, and apart from a couple of long-range shots that hit the back of the net and left Cech in a cold sweat, there was no chance of a real need for Petr Cech to make a flying save.

Blackburn's few counter-attacks didn't work either, with Tottenham still having at least three defenders at the back, and Griezmann is not the kind of superstar who can destroy an entire backline on his own.

The minutes passed like this, and the game had come to the 43rd minute of the first half.

Because there is not much time left in the first half, Pochettino considered that there was not much time in the first half, Blackburn may not have a chance to counterattack, it is better to fight and give it a go, and maybe there is a chance to equalize.

Tottenham had a good chance at the moment, but Soldado, who has been out of form this season, was so impatient in the face of an imminent opportunity. Petr Cech jumped to the left and stretched out to save the Spanish striker's shot.

Cech then quickly got up from the ground, looked at the situation in front of him, and without hesitation, threw the ball with one hand and the ball fell directly to the feet of Alderweireld, who got the ball and immediately passed it to Raheem Sterling in front.

Sterling, who got the football, ran at full speed, and England's Peter Pan seemed to be stepping on Hot Wheels at his feet, and he seemed to remember his teammates when he knew that Walker was approaching, and directly passed the football diagonally to Tottenham's penalty area.

The football flew quickly into Tottenham in the air, and Griezmann had already prepared when Sterling got up, just glanced at the football at random, and roughly judged the landing point of the football, and hurriedly ran to the place where the football landed, waiting quietly for the football.

Vertonghen also followed closely behind Griezmann, trying to squeeze Griezmann away, but found that even if he used all his strength, he couldn't squeeze the Griezmann in front of him, who didn't look very strong, Griezmann was like a stake, nailed there.

Griezmann watched the football carefully as he pressed his hands against Vertonghen behind him, preventing Vertonghen from taking a step forward. As the ball was about to fall, Griezmann leaped high with Vertonghen to get ready for the ball.

As long as Vertonghen passes, then Griezmann will form a one-on-one goal and face Lloris. (To be continued.) )
