Chapter 285: It's Too Hard

For this conceded goal, most fans may think that it is a problem with the defensive players, because they did not mark Lewandowski, so that Lewandowski can easily head the goal.

However, those who really know tactics know that the root cause is that the player on Ivan's side failed to stop or interfere with the opponent's cross in time, allowing Alaba to send the ball to the right side of the small penalty area with precision.

Without any interference, the player's passing is very accurate, compared to how to plug, without interference, he can directly pass a long pass from his own penalty area to the opponent's penalty area, but in actual games, most of them can only pass near the center circle.

That's one of the reasons why we see that the skills of the players in training are very different from the skills they show in the games.

As for Jose moving to the right side of the goal to block, this must be done, and if he doesn't block Vidal, then Vidal can go straight to the empty goal on the right side.

The goal is 7.32 meters wide and 2.44 meters high, and it is impossible to completely block such a large area unless the space-time pause can be kept open.

Of course, Bayern had been attacking from the ground until then, and suddenly adopted a high-altitude tactic, and the Chelsea defence failed to react for a while, which was also one of the reasons.

No one is dwelling on who is responsible, and the priority is to recover the score.

The center circle kicks off again and the game continues.

With a two-goal lead, Bayern still did not give up the attack.

Everyone knows that as long as Chelsea can score a goal, they can still knock Bayern out and advance to the final.

Bayern are far from the time to celebrate.

In the 78th minute, Bayern hit the penalty area again.

On the right side of the arc island, Alonso kicks up and shoots low.

The ball slipped past John Terry but couldn't get past Jose's interception.

José bent over to confiscate Alonso's low shot.

In the 83rd minute, Mikel fought for the top on the left sideline and headed directly to Hazard in front.

Hazard won the ball and advanced quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already on the left side of the Bayern penalty area.

On the edge of the penalty area, seeing that Hazard was about to get a one-on-one shot on goal, Martinez flew to the tackle and brought down Hazard directly.

"Beep, beep~" The referee's whistle sounded.

Yellow Dot Package.

Martinez is booked.

Chelsea were awarded a penalty.

Eden Hazard stood in front of the penalty spot.

At this point, everyone was extremely nervous.

As long as Eden Hazard scores the ball, it will be Chelsea who advance.

At that point, Bayern's 80-minute effort will come to naught.

With the ball set, Hazard retreated to the island position.

"Beep~" As the referee's whistle blew, Hazard moved.

Running and shooting in one go.

The ball flies straight to the bottom left of the goal.

Eden Hazard's penalty shot was exactly the same as Muller's penalty in the first half.

Immediately after, a scene that excited Bayern fans appeared.

Manuel Neuer flew to save Eden Hazard's penalty and was cleared off the line by Alonso.

Chelsea missed a great chance to score.

In the second and second halves, the same goal, the same penalty shooting route, the difference is only the penalty taker and the goalkeeper, and the goalkeeper successfully saves the penalty kick.

It's too dramatic.

The Chelsea fans stood in an unusual silence.

Penalties were not scored and luck did not seem to be on Chelsea's side.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines with a bitter expression.

Bayern fans are celebrating wildly.

The game continues.

Bayern kept pressing on Chelsea.

In the 88th minute, Bayern still had a chance to score.

Alaba volleys with his left foot from the edge of the box.

The ball changed direction after it touched Mikel.

Thankfully, Jose reacted quickly and saved the ball from the back of the way.

Although Jose kept the score from being extended by Bayern, does Chelsea, who are weak in attack, still have a chance?

There will be five minutes of stoppage time.

Mourinho didn't make any more substitutions, there was really no one to replace.

Bayern also made no substitutions, after all, they now have the advantage.

In the 93rd minute, Bayern's attacking intensity finally decreased, but they still kept the ball firmly in the Chelsea half.

Pep Guardiola may have left, but his tactical philosophy has been retained at Bayern.

Alaba shoots from outside the box.

The ball flies straight to the top right of the goal.

Such a shot is not a threat to Jose.

But José used the "pause in space".

It's just because Jose knows that if he waits for his normal save before taking a goal kick, Bayern will inevitably do a good job of defending in time.

He must race against time to complete the transition from defense to offense.

"DC~" After Jose took the ball, he blasted the goal kick with his foot as fast as he could, and at the same time shouted at the front court.

Jose shouted Diego Costa, of course.

Hearing Jose's shout, Diego Costa instantly understood, and he immediately rushed towards Bayern's half.

Ever since Jose was able to hit a goal kick with a big kick and assist, all teams will not press on all sides when facing Jose.

But Bayern at this moment has obviously forgotten, just like Chelsea forgot that Bayern has Lewandowski's high point.

The ball quickly crossed the half-court and was picked up by Diego Costa and it was a one-on-one shot.

Thanks to his free-kick skills, Jose's long passes are far more accurate than the average player.

Diego Costa dribbled the ball into the right side of the Bayern penalty area, and Neuer came out to block.

This time, everyone held their breath.

When Neuer was just two metres away from Diego Costa, Costa struck with a left-footed shot.

The ball went around Manuel Neuer and headed towards the left side of the goal.

Costa's choice was too correct, and he knew very well that Neuer's ability to block and Jose's interception ability were on par with Jose's.

Of course, if you count the cheats, Neuer can't compare to Jose.

In full view, the ball flew into the net.

2 to 1.

With an assist from Jose and a goal from Diego Costa, Chelsea brought their hopes of promotion back to their side.

Bayern fans and players were all stunned.

Obviously Chelsea has been pressed to the point of no defense, why was it suddenly scored by the opponent?

There was only one minute left in the game.

Bayern attacked like crazy, but to no avail.

Chelsea qualified for the final.

Mourinho was so excited that he rushed to Jose: "Thank you. ”

Hearing Mourinho's words, Jose just smiled slightly, revealing incredible maturity and calmness.

In fact, Jose thought in his heart that this season's Chelsea is too difficult, even more difficult than last year in Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer Leverkusen's individual quality may not be as good as that of Chelsea's players, but they are young and willing to make up for the gap with running and pressing.

The young ones are too young and the old ones are too old to find a few players to play in the current Chelsea squad.

Post-match wrap-up.

Bayern had 76 per cent possession and had a whopping 33 shots on goal and 11 shots from inside the goal, while Chelsea had just seven shots on goal.

In terms of passing, Bayern made 652 passes, with a pass success rate of 85%; For Chelsea, there were just 256 passes and a pass completion rate of 57 per cent.

The huge data gap has divided the fans into two factions.

One of the supporters of Mourinho believes that Chelsea have the last laugh with their iron-clad defence.

Fans who don't like Mourinho believe that Mourinho's bus tactics are completely anti-football tactics, which fundamentally undermine the passion and enjoyment of football.

Mourinho simply did not bother to respond to these controversies.

Football is consequential.

The other match of the Champions League semi-finals was decided on the second day, with Real Madrid knocking out Atletico Madrid 1-0 at home.

Augusto Fernandez scored the only goal of the game, but it was a goal that went home to his own goal.

As a result, Chelsea and Real Madrid joined hands to reach the final.

Who will lift the final Big Ear Cup will only have to wait until May 28 at the San Siro Stadium to find out.

Shortly after the Champions League final spot was decided, Manchester City announced that Pep Guardiola would join City next season.

To show their support for Pep Guardiola, Manchester City are willing to sign any player for him.

Chelsea's Jose, John Stones, and Lionel Messi are on the list, while the rest include Leroy Sane, Gundogan, Nolito and others are also on the list.

Of course, Manchester City wanted to sign Jose, but it was probably impossible, so Barcelona's Bravo came into their sights.

As for Messi, the Barcelona hierarchy said that unless Manchester City activates Messi's 1 billion euro termination clause, it will never be released.

It is foreseeable that in this summer transfer period, Manchester City will definitely set off a wave of transfers.

Some people come and some people leave, and Joe Hart will most likely leave Manchester City and go to other leagues.

As for Manchester Pellegrini, the current head coach of Manchester City, it is said that he wants to go to Jose's home country to see if China really can't produce football talents.

In addition to Manchester City, Manchester United also made big moves.

Louis van Gaal will step down from Manchester United's presidency at the end of the season, and they have brought in Italian madman Antonio Conte.

Conte's personality, like Jose Mourinho's, is a wild and uninhibited master, and his coaching career has been brilliant enough that United have finally given up on the idea of developing a direct manager.

With Antonio Conte in charge, United will definitely have to network the right players for him, so who will be their network target?

As for Chelsea, there are also related transfer rumours coming out as the season draws to a close.

The first is the news of the departing players.

Saleh, who is on loan at Roma, will make his move to Roma and he will become the first Chelsea player to make a sure departure.

Youth player Ake will continue on loan at other clubs, this time at Bournemouth.

Captain John Terry decided not to renew his contract with the club and at the age of 34 decided to try his hand at the lower leagues.

As for recruitment, there are many rumours, but the only reliable one is that the Blues are actively looking for Ivan's successor.

With Cesar Azpilicueta capable of playing left and right, the right left-back is also a target for Chelsea, with Fiorentina's Marcos Alonso being the first choice.

With John Terry leaving, Chelsea are also considering a buy-back of David Luiz.

While David Luiz has a flaw in his aggressiveness, his individual skills are outstanding.
