Five hundred and three, a well-deserved strong team
There is no suspense about the outcome of the game.
Lynn knew the outcome for a long time, and minutes after the game began, Lynn realized that McLaren was not ready, or rather, he was not prepared for the stalker that the team would face next.
This time, even Chelsea's substitute Lennon started, and Lynn couldn't help but feel sad for McLaren, he was too eager to distinguish himself from Erikson, and let Beckham, who broke the dense defense, just mess up the war with Israel, play melee, it's strange to win, in the entire tactical system, there is no high point in the penalty area, everything is nonsense.
If it were Lynn himself, even if it was these people, he would not let Gerrard stay in the backcourt to simply defend, but put Gerrard in the front court, using his height and impact to put more pressure on Israel.
Maybe that's especially the case.
"Can't win" Before the first half was over, Lynn sighed and told the two friends not to report any hope.
Robin and Gibson both looked at Lynn in shock, somewhat unconvinced, at least England had an absolute advantage on the field, how could it be said that they couldn't win.
The two friends didn't believe it, and Lynn didn't argue, but drank to herself, glancing at the other fans in the bar, most of whom were watching the game intently, with occasional sighs of regret or cheers.
I secretly feel sorry for these fans in my heart, English football can't do anything else, and the professionalism of the fans is really not picky.
After 90 minutes of hard-fought battle, the two teams ended up in a 0-0 draw. England also had to accumulate eight points to remain third in Group E.
There was dead silence in the bar, and Lynn stood up. patted Robin and Gibson, who were still in a daze, and left first.
Kate was already waiting outside the door.
Lynn knew it wasn't easy to find a taxi in this place. Fortunately, he has a wife, which indirectly let Kate know that she didn't fool around. It's really just to accompany two bastards to watch the ball and drink.
"Winnie slept?"
"Well, I've been asleep for a long time"
Lynn's tone changed, "Sleep well, sleep well"
Ask the strings and know Yayi, the two of them have been for so long, Kate didn't know what Lynn meant, and couldn't help but give him a blank look.
Seeing the charm in Kate's eyes at the moment, Lynn laughed, not caring about the England draw, and as for McClaren's unstable position, he didn't care. It's my!
Before McLaren returned to London, he was caught in the whirlpool of unruly handsomeness.
What's more, the words that Lynn said in the pre-game interview were repeatedly played on various programs, which made England fans even more angry.
I don't think this game needs any prediction, every England fan knows what the result should be? So, the prediction is still forgotten, and there is no point in it. This is definitely a message to the hearts of the fans.
Many fans even gathered in front of the FA building and raised banners in protest, demanding that the FA fire McLaren, who would not resign.
'We have Lynn John. McLaren, this shit, fuck off! ’
This sentence was so lethal that even Lynn had to avoid it, and didn't even dare to drive his own car to Cobham, but sneaked in Kate's car.
Even England then beat Andorra by three goals away from home. Nor can it appease the resentment of the fans, is it proud to beat Andorra?
This score made the fans even more angry, what kind of team is Andorra?
A small country with more than 70,000 people in one country. The national team that has been put together is the second division team of England will be beaten all over the ground, and the dignified Three Lions have won by three goals. Are you really embarrassed to go back home?
Lynn ignored the call for him to be the head coach of the national team, as if he hadn't heard it. No reporters were allowed to do so, and Chelsea were deaf and dumb.
The FA finally stepped in, announcing their continued trust in McLaren, which was a rescue for McLaren.
As for McLaren, he can only pinch his nose and claim that once Beckham recovers from injury, he will be re-recruited into the national team.
This made Lynn even more sneering at McLaren, no responsibility, no backbone, no ability, I really don't know what kind of water the FA gang of people are in, such people dare to insist on using it, but Lynn likes to hear such news, at least he doesn't have to worry about it
Returning to Watford, Lynn did not have any psychological burden, so much time has passed, things are wrong, although Watford fans still remember the manager who brought them their first national title, however, the fans were very determined, and at the beginning of the game, there was no reservation, and immediately launched a harassment campaign against the Chelsea team.
Ashley Young was very active throughout the game, seemingly in order to show himself in front of Lynn, however, under Thuram's watch, he did not save Watford.
Despite the impact of the international game, Chelsea's rotation easily beat Watford to continue to lead the league
On 5 April, Chelsea hosted Valencia.
Valencia's squad is full of young players and impactful, even at Chelsea's home stadium, while Lynn struggles with a starting line-up.
Terry's yellow card suspension deprived the defense of the epee and Pepe was also unavailable, which left Lynn with no choice but to let Thuram and Gallas partner in the middle, Alves and Sun Jihai on either side, and Barzaretti sat in the stands, although he was not really injured yet. However, Lynn refused to let him play, Gibson gave Barzaretti a red light, if it was not necessary, Lynn was not going to take risks, and Bale was too young to play against a player like Joaquin, Lynn was sure that Bale would learn a lot.
But it's a Champions League quarter-final tie and Lynn hasn't had the luxury of using this kind of game to train the players.
The midfield is Lynn's biggest reliance, and Van Bommel is improving, although not as good as Alonso. It's still okay to play Valencia, with Frank Lampard still starting. I don't have to say anything about the physical fitness of the magic lamp.
On the wings, Cristiano Ronaldo and Franck Franck Ribery continued to partner together. It is the two sharp blades of Chelsea's attack.
Anelka and Palacio formed a forward partnership, and Lynn struggled to put together this starting lineup.
In the opponent's team, there is no shortage of good players, Witersen, Villa, Silva, Joaquin, Albelda and others are all first-time heroes.
From the very beginning of the game. Chelsea have been slow to get into form, and it is clear that the impact of the international game has not yet been removed.
Villa's sneak attack kept Chelsea behind, and after twenty minutes, Chelsea finally took control of the game.
However, sharp counter-attacks against opponents, particularly the combination of Villa and Witsen, have made the Chelsea defence suffer.
Had it not been for Palacio's late second-half shot from Nicolas Anelka's denied shot into the back of the net, Chelsea's Champions League home stadium might have been lost.
1-1, the result made Chelsea nervous.
Chelsea have been in the Champions League since they were under Lynn. It's the first time I've been so passive.
Many Spanish media are singing praises to Valencia, encouraging them to beat the defending champions and let the lone seed of La Liga correct La Liga and save its honor.
Such a result really made Lynn unable to laugh. He is naturally not afraid of Valencia, and for such an opponent, Lynn has a lot of experience in fighting. The strength of the opponent is not worried, Lynn is anxious about Chelsea's form.
Van Bommel was tenacious. But it can't hide his shortcomings in controlling the team's offense.
This also made Lynn completely extinguish the idea of using the original tactics.
Chelsea have changed their line-up.
At home, the Blues welcome Tottenham once again. However, Tottenham Hotspur decisively gave up the idea of going to Stamford Bridge and Chelsea for the next Champions League match.
With Falcao's counter-attacking goal, Chelsea beat their league rivals and extended their lead in the league.
The trip to Spain became a do-or-die battle for Chelsea, after all, they took away an away goal, and Chelsea were behind.
Failing to score on the road would end Chelsea's Champions League journey
'I don't want to say it's the most dangerous moment for Chelsea, but it's the way it is, we have to pay for our slackness and mistakes, and today's game is going to be the fateful game for Chelsea!'
Instead of depressurizing the team, Lynn continued to pressurize.
After a week of adjustments, the team is now back in form, the good news is that the suspended players are available, and Cech has joined the first team for normal training after returning to training, and Lynn is very happy that the old American man is doing his job well, and he is stunned that he did not let Cech wear that helmet, which makes Lynn very satisfied.
Since he was going to score, Lynn didn't pretend to be a grandson, and directly put on an offensive posture.
Alves, John Terry, Gallas and Barzaretti all got starts.
In midfield, Van Bommel, Frank Lampard and Parker will be a trio of strong players.
On the front line, Anelka, Ronaldo and Palacio started the three killers.
Lynn was determined to put on a good offensive game against the attacking Spain.
Valencia, on the other hand, is not as keen on counter-attacking as Benitez was in the Benitz era, and they also know that their defense is actually like that, and they have also set up a four-three-three formation to fight with Chelsea.
This match can be regarded as a strong conversation, and the Mestalla Stadium is packed.
"Ronaldo Ronaldo - Cristiano Ronaldo !!"
"Beautiful shot! Chelsea scored fantastic goals away from home and they had a one-goal lead! Less than five minutes into the game, the defending champions scored and there was no better start than this! On aggregate, Chelsea exceeded! Also equalled the number of away goals, now Valencia is in difficulty! ”
"Villa - Villa!! Valencia equalized thanks to Villa's header! The two sides are back on the same starting line! ”
"Oh! It's exciting! In ten minutes, both sides scored one goal each! No one owes anyone anymore, and some of the games are played!! ”
Lynn was very annoyed on the sidelines, although he was not angry, but his face was absolutely ugly, this goal was breathless, Terry leaked, and let the small Villa calmly shake his head to attack the goal. And the defending Chelsea players didn't even interfere with it.
It also seemed to know that the goal would cause Lynn's displeasure, and the Chelsea players immediately stepped up their grip. and used the attack to completely suppress Valencia, even on the opponent's home field.
The home fans can only disturb Chelsea with their boos. It's just that the Blues who are used to seeing the world are difficult to be influenced.
In first-half stoppage time, Chelsea attacked again, the ball fell to Anelka's feet, Anelka's successive feints, after breaking forward for some distance, suddenly changed line, turned to dribble laterally, dodged a tackle by a Valencia player, and then suddenly shot from distance.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO2:1! Oh, my God! Everyone is waiting for the second half of the two sides to fight again! But Chelsea have made Valencia's situation sinister with a goal! Anelka! His goal at a crucial moment. Keeping Chelsea firmly in control, poor Valencia, they have to score at least two goals'
After the break, there were no substitutions for either side, and Valencia were not discouraged and seemed to be in good spirits.
It didn't take long for Lynn to sit in the dugout and was stunned by the opponent's goal.
"Villa! It's Villa again! And it's a header! Oh my God, where did he come from! He's just a genie."
In the stands, the Valencia fans set off a wave of cheering and the aggregate score was level. And after that goal, they also saw hope, and in the remaining thirty minutes, they only needed to score one more goal. Then everything will be so wonderful.
Lynn's gaze lingered on Villa's body many times, thoughtfully.
Almunia slammed the turf on the ground a few times, a goal for which he was not responsible. But alas, his hand touched the football. But it didn't change the fate of the football falling into the net.
Chelsea also had the advantage and the score remained until the end. It was Chelsea who advanced.
But that's not Lynn's character, and it's not something he's okay with.
"Goal! I don't want anything else, just a goal! ”
Lynn gave the order to die.
At the same time, in order to put pressure on the players on the field, Lynn drove everyone to the warm-up area to warm up, which is a signal, if anyone can't satisfy Lynn, then they will be replaced, Chelsea players know that at this time, substitution, the next time they play, they don't know when, the head has always been ruthless.
Both teams insisted on playing offensive football, which kept the fans watching the game entertained.
"Beautiful! Oops! Palacio's shot hits the crossbar and Chelsea miss a great opportunity! ”
As soon as Chelsea came out with a threat, Valencia were not far behind to return one.
It's Villa again, he suddenly volleys from outside the box!
Boom!
The soccer ball hits the outside of the post and pops up the bottom line!
Hmm――――
The audience sighed with regret!
Almunia's face turned white, apparently he was terrified!
At this point, whoever scores a goal is in their own hands to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League, and there is no room for mistakes at this moment.
'It's the last minute of the game, it's about to go into injury time, Valencia is running out and the Chelsea fans are already celebrating'
The Valencia players also knew it was the last minute and they rushed madly into the heart of Chelsea to make a last-minute fight.
The fourth official on the sidelines held up an electronic card and added three minutes of stoppage time.
As the home fans shouted more wildly, Valencia attacked harder.
Chelsea's penalty area was in chaos and it looked like it could be crushed at any moment by Valencia's powerful attack.
"Oh Terry! Long Passing ――――――"
In the first minute of stoppage time, Terry squeezed away Silva and grabbed the football that was hoisted into the penalty area, without raising his head, and drove the football directly into the field!
The ball flew far and went straight into the Valencia penalty area.
With most of the Valencia players besieging Chelsea's goal, their defensive strength at the back was pitiful.
Ronaldo was the first to rush over, with his back to the goal, leaned on the opponent's drag-back defender Miguel with his body, stopped the ball on his chest, and without waiting for the ball to land, he suddenly half-turned around and volleyed!
The ball almost grazed the post and flew into Valencia's goal at a very tricky angle!
"Great! Wonderful unbeatable! Chelsea can hold their heads high and say loudly, the Champions League semi-finals, we are here again! ”
'Valencia didn't have a chance, their efforts were ruined by Chelsea's use of goals, but we have to say that Valencia did a good job, they were just too strong against them and Valencia lacked a bit of luck.
After the goal, Cristiano Ronaldo ran to the sideline with open arms, then knelt down in a dashing manner, and then rolled over and lay on the ground, as if he had lost all his strength, and the Chelsea players rushed over like crazy, no matter how far away.
Each of them did almost the same thing as Cristiano Ronaldo
Most of Valencia's players were still scattered in the Chelsea half, and at this time ten people also knew that if they wanted to score two goals in the remaining minute or so, even if the opponent was not Chelsea, they would not be able to change to a super bad team that was rotten to the limit.
It's over, it's all over.
It's over!
"It's over! Valencia lost at home to Chelsea! Their dream of reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League has been shattered! ”
'Coach John is still strong in the Champions League, it's amazing that he's led the team to the semi-finals of the Champions League on the heels of several times in a row, and it's hard to imagine how much luck it takes to do that, Chelsea are the best team in the last five seasons'
'Congratulations to Chelsea, they are on their way to a fourth Champions League trophy! Who can stop them? (To be continued......)
