(In the new year, everything is going well for everyone.) ）

On April 12, 2005, Chelsea relied on Owen's brace and Rooney's goal to defeat the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich 3:1 and advance to the Champions League semi-finals with an aggregate score of 6:3!

Before this game, Bayern completely put down the pressure of the league and the domestic cup under the good domestic situation, and paid attention to the Champions Cup game wholeheartedly.

In other matches, AC Milan beat Inter Milan 5-0 in the local derby to occupy a place in the last four; Liverpool drew 2-2 with Juventus and lost on penalties with a place from PSV Eindhoven in the Netherlands.

Match table released: Chelsea vs Juventus; AC Milan vs PSV Eindhoven.

The most surprising thing for Qiao Wanxian was that Liverpool actually lost to Juventus? You know, Liverpool in the previous life was the Champions League champion this season, it seems that his arrival greatly affected the result of the game, after Capello led Juventus to defeat Mourinho's Real Madrid, the team's morale was greatly boosted, and the steel defense was flawless, so that Benitez's team had 59% possession of the ball, but only 9 shots on goal, I have to sigh.

The strong dialogue between Chelsea and Juventus has caused heated discussions, and the betting has opened new odds, with AC Milan rising directly to first place at 1:3.5 against the underdogs, and Chelsea falling to second. It can be seen that the bookmaker is afraid of Juventus's ability.

Chelsea returned to London in the evening, and the impact of the Blues' victory over Bayern Munich was like a mushroom cloud in the aftermath of the atomic bombing.

The article "Joe Cannon Writes the Legend Again" was written by the German "Bild", and the article pointed out that after the fall of famous coaches such as Ferguson, Wenger, Benitez and Rijkaard, the greatest German coach of our time, Heathfield, also fell heavily. In the Allianz Arena game, Bayern lost without dispute.

As a team in England, Chelsea carried the entire Premier League, and almost all the media focused on one team - Chelsea.

"On this night, the Germans wail in pain! 》

"The cannon is invincible, the flying man returns." 》

"The goal of the Englishman has brought England's team to the last four!" 》

"Beckenbauer, where are your bold words?" 》

"The least watched team at the beginning of the season defended their English honours. 》

The Sun really didn't want to praise Jowanxian and Chelsea, so they simply set their sights on Rooney and played "14 goals, a new record is about to be born!" Such titles.

It is said that Wayne Rooney has scored 14 goals in the Champions League this season, tying the record for the highest goals scored in a single season in the Champions League by AC Milan's Brazilian star Altafini in the 1962-1963 season. Chelsea have at least two games to play, and it's no problem for England upstarts to become the first in Champions League history!

In the first round of the group stage against Paris Saint-Germain, Wayne Rooney made his first appearance for Chelsea and scored a hat-trick; In the first leg against Barcelona, Rooney's two shocking goals shocked the world again; In the second leg against Bayern Munich, Wayne Rooney's goal gave Chelsea the opener and gave the chance for an away win.

So far, Chelsea's most popular player in the Champions League is Wayne Rooney, who has averaged 9.3 points per game, even surpassing Kaka, a Brazilian who has scored 10 goals and seven assists in the Champions League and is worth £80 million in the Champions League.

Speaking of Kaka, Qiao Wanxian's move to replace him in the midfield has caused speculation in the media of various European countries, is it the gold medal combination of Joe Cannon and Kaka...... Are you really going to separate?

Not even Joe's cannon can stop the poaching of the Galaxy Battleship?

In the spirit of a journalist who only focuses on impact and does not pay attention to the truth, the Spanish newspaper Marca sent out a shocking message "Shocking Insider: Kaka's agent shows favor to Real Madrid!" 》。

At the same time, the "As" newspaper also added fuel and vinegar to make a statement, saying that Kaka is about to marry his fiancée Caroline, and Caroline does not like the bad weather in London and looks forward to the beautiful scenery of Madrid; He also said that the agent Ye Xuan was dissatisfied with Kaka's high energy and low salary at Chelsea, and decided to leave after several salary increases, and also put a photo of her appearing at the Madrid airport.

Two women in one play, the Brazilian genius really wants to leave the Blue Army that has just set sail and join the Galaxy Battleship?

Chelsea officials solemnly stated that Kaka has four years left on his contract with the club, and he is absolutely not for sale!

After the Champions League match, the entire European media almost set off a huge wave.

The German media are analyzing the reasons for Bayern Munich's defeat one by one, some are rational and objective, some are blindly abused, and domestic public opinion is a mess;

The Dutch media were applauding PSV Eindhoven's run to the semi-finals, while also teasing Arjan Robben, who joined Manchester United in the winter. Robben joined Manchester United with the idea of winning the championship and seeking a bigger stage, but he didn't expect that he was likely to have nothing to achieve this season when he went to Manchester United, while his old club PSV Eindhoven entered the Champions League semi-finals;

The Spanish media have locked their eyes on Ramos, Villa, Torres, and Luis Garcia, calling on the national team coach Aragonés to pay attention to the pouting of these new stars, of course, hyping Kaka is still the main target of the Madrid media;

The Italian media is undoubtedly the proudest, with Serie A teams occupying two seats in the Champions League semi-finals this season, and many media outlets such as Torino Sport, Milan Sport, and Slow Motion have released bold statements, looking forward to the final of Juventus and AC Milan!

Such comments undoubtedly annoyed the English media, and the Times immediately published "Wishful thinking about Italy, sweeping the Apennines!" Such an article, the content is extremely sharp, and it has Qiao Wanxian's style and tone, in fact, this article was modified by Qiao Wanxian's pen.

“…… PSV Eindhoven is a soft persimmon, Milan is worry-free, but Juventus? Keep your phone in mind and Chelsea will show you that there is no monolithic defense on this shijie! Fabio Capello's ugly football can only flourish in Italy, and if you win all of them at Chelsea, the fans will have already fired you! Picking up the Bianconeri in the semi-finals and beating the Rossoneri in the final, Chelsea will show you that Italy's encirclement is meaningless! ”

The media chattered endlessly, and in the Chelsea training ground, a series of statements by Qiao Wanxian, Villas-Boas, Kaka and others eased the panic in the team, after all, this season's getting along, Kaka's easy-going, friendly, and ability left a deep impression on everyone.

Chelsea's next game is the FA Cup semi-finals on 17 April, when Chelsea travel to Manchester United. Manchester United are out of the Champions League this season, and the League Cup and league title have been won by Chelsea, and the FA Cup is Manchester United's only hope of winning the title.

You must know that last season Manchester United was empty, and if there is still no harvest this season, even if it is an old man, Ferguson is under inexplicable pressure.

So it's going to be a tough game for Chelsea.

However, Qiao Wanxian looked very relaxed, and he didn't take Ferguson's team to heart, talking and laughing on the training ground, and the atmosphere in the team was lively and relaxed.

During the break, Jovan called Cannavaro and Grosso to his side, not because they were both called "Fabio", but because they were both Italians.

"It is said that Italy's defense is the first, known as the reinforced concrete defense line, what do you two think?"

Qiao Wanxian didn't have the head coach's frame at all, and sat on the ground with the two of them.

Cannavaro and Grosso glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sigh, the head is the head, this heart is really big, the team is about to face a vicious battle with Manchester United, and he directly targeted the game with Juventus.

Grosso was the first to speak: "Strong defense? I don't think so...... Italy's mainstream style of play is a 4-4-2 defensive counter-attacking system, which mainly involves the defenders actively retreating to participate in the defense, relying on the numerical advantage to form a steal to complete the counterattack. The reason why it is strong is that it has a deeper and more unique understanding of the defensive counterattack system. ”

Grosso came from a mediocre background, and Cannavaro, who played for the Italian giants, frowned slightly, shook his head, and said: "There are many layers of defense in Italian teams, and I think multi-level defense is the true meaning of Italian football." If you think of the opponent's offense as a kind of potential energy, then every time you break through a layer of defense, it costs one point of energy. The more levels, the more potential energy is needed to break through all levels, and the lower the success rate. ”

Cannavaro added: "Not only that, but when we defend, we shrink the area and lure the opponent into the encirclement. Once inside, defenders pick up the tempo and press on the markers. This process appeared almost suddenly, and in this way, it was bound to form more defense and less defense in local areas, which increased the success rate of defense. ”

Qiao Wan squinted his eyes and said: "Capello is a defensive expert, and his understanding of Italian football is incisive. You see...... How do you break through such a defensive system? ”

Grosso and Cannavaro looked at each other, both with blank expressions, but the manager's words ...... You can't help but go back, right?

"It's not good to have a high ball, the Italian central defender is tall and strong, and the second point is very protective."

Grosso said with a frown.

"It's not good to have a through ball, and the Italian central defender has a strong sense of filling the position."

Cannavaro said.

"Long-range shots are not good, Buffon is too strong."

"Breakthrough won't work."

"In-cut doesn't work......"

Grosso and Cannavaro said word by word, and Qiao Wanxian was stunned. He now understands that it was a complete mistake to ask these two men for internal secrets, and that Italy's defensive system is simply perfect in their minds.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, dare to love Italy's defense is invincible?

Joke!

Qiao Wanxian stood up and waved his big hand: "What doesn't work, that doesn't work, the more I can't do it, the more I have to do it!" ”
