Walcourt looked at the referee showing a red card, the whole person was stunned, his face was full of incredulity, he was tripped by Toure just now and did knock down Iro, but this qiē was an accident, not his subjective behavior at all, it stands to reason that the referee will award a yellow card and a penalty at most, what I didn't expect was that the referee would impose such a severe punishment.

Suddenly, huge boos erupted in the stands.

It was a good situation to lead by one goal in less than ten minutes of the opening game, but under the referee's capital punishment, Arsenal at home became passive.

Iroh turned his head to look at Walcot with an innocent face and was quite helpless, just now he also saw the whole process from the slow motion replay on the big screen in the stadium, which has nothing to do with Walcoatt, mainly because he was killed by Toure, the so-called opponent who is not afraid of gods is afraid of his teammates like pigs, that is to say, this situation......

Iroh was deeply sympathetic to this situation, especially when he thought of the best teammates he encountered when he was playing competitive online games in his 'previous life', and shook his head repeatedly.

So he walked over and patted Walcott comfortingly as a sign of sympathy.

In order to avoid the team being completely leaderless, Arsenal assistant coach Bald hurriedly hugged Wenger back, and kept making sorry gestures to the referee, distracting the referee as much as possible.

Walcott instinctively looked back, it was his idol Iroh, who should have been pleasantly surprised, he didn't feel a trace of emotion, just turned around and walked towards the player's tunnel.

Iroh shook his head, what a stubborn little guy.

With the wood in place, Arsenal, from the coach to the players, have come to terms with the result, and the only thing they can do is to win this game and reach the final.

Frank Lampard, Chelsea's first-in-class penalty taker, did not waste a golden opportunity to help the visitors equalise the scoreline.

Arsenal had one man less on the pitch, but it was wing-back Theo Walcott who was sent off, which did not have much impact on the team as a whole, anyway, the team's original midfield position was Diaby, Cesc Fabregas and Alexander Song lined up in the middle, and Walcott and Arshavin were left and right.

Now, with Theo Walcott gone, Arshavin can play as a second striker directly behind Adebayo, while also assisting in the defense in the middle.

There were no obvious problems for some time after the restart, but as the clock wore on, Arsenal's numerical disadvantage was revealed, especially after Frank Lampard had the ball, and the three central midfielders were stretched wide open, allowing for opportunities in both flanks.

However, thanks to Almunia's brilliant performance in the first half, Arsenal still kept the score until the end of the first half.

Standing on the sidelines, Mourinho was not worried, but continued to use the precision of Lampard's long balls to tug the fitness of Arsenal's defenders.

It wasn't until the 72nd minute of the game that Arsenal's defense finally had problems, Ailo suddenly picked up speed on the wing, and Alexander Song was half a beat slower to react due to the decline in physical fitness, and it was difficult to defend Ailo with Sagna's defensive strength alone.

Sure enough, Elo's frequent changes of direction during acceleration shook Sagna to the ground, and then passed an inverted triangle before Toure came up to make up for the defense, and Lampard, who is currently the world's most capable back, did not stop the ball and pushed it directly, although Almunia, who has a god-level watch in the first half, reacted, but did not save the ball, and the ball flew into the goal against the near post.

Chelsea won 1-2 at Arsenal thanks to a brace from Frank Lampard.

The score was reversed, and Arsene Wenger, who was standing on the sidelines, had to replace young defender Gibbs with Bendtner to add up to the front.

However, the substitution did not allow them to equalize the score, but instead led to problems with the defensive system, and Iello took advantage of an inside opportunity to score directly from 25 meters in the 83rd minute, expanding the score to 3:1, and sealed the victory with the advantage of numbers.

In the end, Chelsea beat Arsenal 3-1 away to reach this season's FA Cup final.

※※※

Arsene Wenger publicly blasted the referee on duty at his regular post-match press conference, believing the game had been ruined by the referee.

Mourinho was relatively low-key, and he did not get cheap and behaved, and he was very flexible in the face of the minefield questions asked by the media, completely avoiding the referee's questions.

An hour later, the result at Old Trafford was also in, as Manchester United beat Everton 1-0 at home to reach this season's FA Cup final.

When both teams in the FA Cup final surfaced, the British media paid a lot of attention to it, and even the rest of the mainstream media in Europe expressed full interest.

Some bold British media have even speculated that this season's Champions League final will see Chelsea and Manchester United meet again in the final after the FA Cup final.

Suddenly, the British media was in an uproar.

After careful consideration by a number of well-known journalists, this situation is not out of the question, after all, Chelsea and Manchester United are in the upper and lower halves of the Champions League semi-finals, as long as Chelsea knocks out Barcelona and Manchester United knocks out Arsenal, won't it be the Champions League final after last year's Champions League final?

When this idea appeared in their minds, they were all taken aback, throughout the past 53 years of the Champions League, there have not been two teams under the same football association in the Champions League final in a row, which means that if Chelsea and Manchester United really meet in the Champions League final again, it will set a new Champions League record!

Alex Ferguson, who is at Carrington's training base, and Jose Mourinho, who is at Cobham's training base, were interviewed by reporters respectively.

Ferguson replied with great skill: "There is no doubt about Arsenal's strength, and judging from the table in recent seasons, Arsenal has a lot of room to rise, and in the end, it must be the team that plays better to reach the final, because we know each other too well......"

In the face of the high probability of setting a record for an English team in the Champions League, Mourinho's attitude was completely opposite to that of Ferguson, and he still said in the same tone: "I don't know if the other final will be Manchester United or Arsenal, in short, it will be Chelsea who will win the Champions League!" And I'm Jose Mourinho under God!! ”

The British media are accustomed to Mourinho's madman nature, and there is no special reaction.

But when the news reached Catalonia, the Barcelona media couldn't stand it, and in their perception, saying that this season's Champions League title belongs to Chelsea before the Champions League semi-finals have even started, doesn't that mean that Mourinho completely ignores the great Barcelona, so ......

Ahead of the Champions League semi-finals, the Catalan media collectively bombarded Mourinho.

What just drove them crazy was that Mourinho simply ignored them and focused on the league.

※※※

As we all know, Chelsea sit at the top of the Premier League, nine points ahead of second-placed Manchester United, and with only five games remaining, as long as there is no more than three consecutive defeats, winning the title is simply not a problem, so for the Catalan media, Mourinho is completely focused on the league, completely ignoring the home side Barcelona who will travel to the Camp Nou in midweek.

Thereupon...... The Catalan media has made even more noise.

Represented by the famous "World Sport", "Daily Sport" and "Pioneer", it bombarded Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho.

'After Chelsea qualified for the 2008-2009 FA Cup final, their manager Jose Mourinho said he was the second man under God to lead Chelsea to become the first team to defend the Champions League title since the restructuring. It means that Mourinho is ignoring the opponent they are about to face, and it is completely sad for Chelsea for a manager who has no respect for the opponent at all......

Daily Sport deliberately exacerbated the conflict between Mourinho and Chelsea FC, but the result had to disappoint them, and the team's hierarchy unconditionally supported Mourinho.

Of course, the reason for the support is very simple.

That's Mourinho, there must be a reason for saying that!

As a two-time Champions League winner, how could he say this without thinking about it?

Indeed, the reason why Mourinho said this is to relieve the pressure on the players, turn himself into a magnet, gather all the public opinion and pressure on himself, let every player in the team be in a state of light travel, and in order to make the players feel at ease to prepare for the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals starting in the middle of next week, he directly gave the players a gag order.

The next day, the Times published a comment from Mourinho: "Thank you very much for your attention from Catalonia, but I have to say sorry to you! Because that's what I'm like – Jose Mourinho! Don't accept the battle!! ”

So the battle was even more intense, with the media throughout Catalonia shelling Mourinho.

Even some Barcelona players were dissatisfied with Mourinho's words and began to give interviews to relevant media to express their dissatisfaction.

In this case, Chelsea travelled to Upton Park to challenge their opponents in the 34th round of the league with a substitute line-up, beating the home side 2-1 away thanks to goals from youngster Sturridge and second-half substitute Iello to move 12 points ahead of Manchester United in the first round, meaning that if United lose at home to Tottenham, Chelsea only need to pick up points in the next round to defend the Premier League title......
