Chapter 324: You've done your best for Liverpool and bring your talent to London!
When the smoke of the war ended, the shattered Bayern supporters gathered their pain and began to accept reality.
Real Madrid had a bad end to the season that they had not expected.
And their sworn enemies in the same city are attacking the club's first Champions League title again!
In the same way, the Chelsea players who successfully took revenge on Bayern Munich this season also showed their naked ambitions to the club's first Champions League title!
Both teams with an unusually tough style of play will face off in the most brutal and fierce confrontation on June 6.
Although in terms of fame and prestige, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid are still slightly inferior, and the popularity is certainly not as hot as the European derby between Bayern and Real Madrid.
But this kind of gimmick of iron-blooded war is still very interesting to arouse the interest of fans to watch the game.
Another conversation between Jose Mourinho and Simeone, two mad coaches, is also very interesting.
And with Li Ang's participation, the overall ratings of this Champions League final are destined not to be low.
The UEFA hierarchy is very reassured by this.
Chelsea's overseas ratings have continued to rise in the past two seasons, giving them plenty of confidence.
After Li Ang led the team to successfully eliminate Bayern and reach this season's Champions League final, the topic exploded!
On the night after the Champions League semifinals came to an end, the topic of Li Ang leading the team to attack the Champions League championship I don't know how many countries on the Eurasian continent have rushed to the first place on the news hot list!
It is no exaggeration to say that the whole football world is waiting for the moment when Leon will lead Chelsea to the top of European football with the absolute core!
Whether it is a fan who likes to support Leon or is not used to seeing Leang, he admits it at this point in time.
Leon has led the team to regain the iron-blooded prestige that once belonged to Chelsea!
Two seasons ago, when Leon made the decision to leave Real Madrid for Chelsea, I don't know how many people were mocking him for not being able to carry his own strength.
But now Leon has completely proved that he can reach the final of the Champions League without relying on Real Madrid.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, after not having him, the defense and control of the midfield have dropped again and again.
Now that they have only won one Copa del Rey in two seasons and lost their dominance in La Liga and the Champions League in quick succession, the contrast is too stark.
That night, at the Allianz Arena in Munich, many reporters dug a pit to ask Li Ang what he thought of Real Madrid's current situation.
Of course, Leon would not let these reporters catch him, but he did not directly skip the topic and keep his mouth shut.
His answer was very frank, and he even defended Real Madrid, so that the reporters on the scene could not find fault at all.
"I don't know why you would define a top team that has reached the last four of the Champions League two seasons in a row as a 'failure'.
If Real Madrid fails, there is only one team that can be considered successful last season and this season.
Because they are the only ones who have made it past the last four of the Champions League and reached the final for two consecutive seasons.
In case you have forgotten, it was only two years ago that we [Real Madrid] lifted the Champions League trophy at Wembley Stadium and completed the feat of defending the Champions League.
Real Madrid may have some problems now, but their competitiveness in the Champions League is still at the top level in Europe.
You have to have respect for Real Madrid, especially in the Champions League, after all these years, the teams that have won the championship have come and gone, only Real Madrid can always bounce back to the top, they are never stuck in form......"
Li Ang's strong speech at this critical moment immediately eliminated some of the anger that had been quarreled between Real Madrid's fan group and Li Ang's personal fan group because of the media's provocation.
More neutral fans also praised Li Ang on the Internet for being indeed affectionate and righteous.
And for Leon, he doesn't have any thoughts about setting up people.
As for the performance dilemma that Real Madrid is facing now, he really thinks as he himself said.
No matter how powerful a team is, it has a finite period of rule.
Compared with 13 years, the tactics of this Real Madrid have been greatly changed, and the main players have also changed several times, which is already in a continuous run-in period.
Insisting that Real Madrid continue to win the Champions League is not pure and embarrassing.
Besides, Real Madrid's results are not bad at all.
Reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League for two consecutive seasons is two or three points away from winning the league.
Even if there are some problems in the team, they are not as big as the media is now publicizing.
If the provocative media want to hear Leon speak ill of Real Madrid, it is basically impossible.
Regardless of the disagreement with Galeries Lafayette on the core issue of team building, Li Ang finally broke up with Real Madrid peacefully.
For his parent team, which also provided the best platform for him to grow into a football star, Li Ang has always been grateful and respectful in his heart.
However, after accepting this relevant interview, Li Ang declined the interview request of other media reporters.
To show attitude, it is enough to have such an interview.
He's still a serious Chelsea player, so how can he keep speaking for his old club in front of reporters.
It's okay to talk once in a while, but if you talk too much, Mendes will call again~
Li Ang's calmness saved him a lot of trouble in the future.
After four days back in London, Chelsea also enjoyed the 37th round of the Premier League of the season.
Fresh from the last round of games against Manchester United, Chelsea will be at home to another Premier League giant, Liverpool.
If such a schedule were to be played in the first half of the Premier League season, it would be very interesting for fans of all stripes.
But after Chelsea won the title early, there was not much to see in such a schedule.
The gimmick of Leon and Suarez competing for the Premier League Golden Boot this season can also arouse the interest of some Premier League fans.
In terms of record, Liverpool completely lost the possibility of breaking into the top four of the Premier League this season in the last round.
And now Southampton, who are competing with them for sixth place in the league, have taken the initiative to drop the chain, so Liverpool's players are completely desireless.
The main players of Liverpool who have a pursuit are hopeless and have no heart to see, and the main players of Liverpool who have not much pursuit are waiting for a better holiday.
In this case, Chelsea at home ushered in only a Liverpool team with weak fighting spirit and semi-main starters.
It is also only a semi-main starter, and Chelsea, who are now in full swing, are much stronger than Liverpool.
Mourinho is also not demanding much of this game, and he can accept it if he maintains his unbeaten record.
However, the young Chelsea players who started today were all gearing up and looked like they wanted to give their best.
Not only because they want to take advantage of the rare starting opportunities to perform well, but also because they want to help Leon get better statistics in the last few league games.
Before the start of the game, Lukaku, who got the chance to start the center forward today, was still patting his chest in the dressing room, assuring Leon that he would help Leon get his twentieth league assist of the season.
However, his words made Li Ang's heart uncertain.
The effect is the same as when Leon was training in Milan, when the striker Bonella slapped him on the chest and promised that he would prevent the opponent's striker from scoring.
But it turned out that Bo Shenfeng's promise could only add defensive pressure to his brother-in-law at the time.
At this moment, Lukaku made this move, and Leon only felt that the offensive burden on his shoulders was heavier.
"Romelu, stop! I could have trusted you a little more if I didn't say anything, but when you say that, I really can't believe your offensive performance today......"
Leon's joke made the little guys in the locker room grin.
No way, Lukaku's mouth this season is as open as Leang.
It's just that he's completely the opposite of Leon.
Every time he says before the game, he will play well, and in the game, he will either miss a single knife or make a lot of low-level mistakes.
So much so that Jose Mourinho once joked that Lukaku would be forbidden to make a pre-match mobilization speech.
In the Chelsea dressing room, which was full of joy, the little monster Lukaku touched his big bald head very aggrievedly.
Of course, he knew that his teammates' ridicule was just a joke, but at this moment he was also determined to break his bad luck in today's game!
So after the game officially started that afternoon, he was quite active, frequently retreating to ask for the ball.
Leon is still very supportive of Lukaku's active possession of the ball and his desire to help the team open up the situation quickly.
He also fed Romelu Lukaku a number of times in the opening stages of the game.
In the face of Emrejan, who played as a full-back today, Lukaku was not intimidated at all, and took the ball very confidently.
The two little reckless men fought the side, and they refused to back down at all.
In the end, though, it was Lukaku's impact that prevailed.
He and Eden Hazard combined to quickly stab Liverpool's right defence.
The commentator for Sky Sports England also praised Lukaku's performance for this reason.
"Little Warcraft did a great job today! Chelsea opened up the attack on the left flank, and Liverpool's defence was a bit passive... Let's see this ball! ”
Accompanied by the exclamation of the Sky Sports commentator, Hazard, who had just broken through to the bottom line of the Liverpool penalty area, sent a precise inverted triangle back pass.
Leon, who received the ball, chose to send the ball straight without stopping, Lukaku successfully countered offside, and decisively adjusted his pace to complete the volley!
Mignolet reacted quickly and jumped out almost instantly and pounced into the far corner of the goal!
At the last moment, the Belgian goalkeeper's fingertips seemed to rub against the football and forcibly blocked Lukaku's script to shoot nine times out of ten!
The huge cheers at Stamford Bridge also suddenly stopped, and then a series of regretful exclamations rang out.
Leon held his head in his hands, and at this time he didn't know whether to lament Mignolet's courage or Lukaku's luck was really unlucky......
Hazard slapped the stunned Lukaku on the ass with a sympathetic look before preparing to take the corner.
Mu Shuai stood on the sidelines, and touched the back of his head helplessly.
"This unlucky kid ......"
Romelu Lukaku looked set to continue his bad luck today, but Chelsea are on the pitch at the moment.
A failure to threaten an attack will not have any impact on the morale of the entire Chelsea squad.
Leon still teamed up with Kroos to hold down Liverpool's midfielder and prevent them from exerting their strength.
After Eden Hazard continued to deliver a very pressing and threatening performance, Liverpool's backline had no choice but to move to the right.
In the 23rd minute of the first half, Kroos received a cross from Leon and found Salah on the right flank.
Henderson couldn't make up for it for a while, and could only watch Salah force an overtake past his teammate Glen Johnson!
After a strong inward cut, Salah fired a low shot with a surprisingly decisive kick!
This time, Mignolet couldn't make another brilliant save.
The ball slipped into the net in the near corner of the Liverpool goal.
And Salah, who scored his 10th goal of the season, was also very excited to rush to the bottom line and rush to the Stamford Bridge home fans who cheered him!
Leon followed, rubbing Salah's head and sending him heartfelt congratulations.
In his first season full for Chelsea, Salah scored on all four fronts, totalling 10 goals and providing seven assists.
As of this round of the league, Salah's personal data in the Premier League has also come to 5 goals and 4 assists.
This is already a very good performance for a newcomer to the Premier League.
You must know that Raheem Sterling, who is playing the main team in the Liverpool team at the moment, has similar statistics as Salah all season.
And Sterling is now being blown up by the British media.
If Salah had a British nationality, he might have to be branded a "British star" by the English media.
Salah has been indebted to Chelsea's ferocious firepower in the rotation this season.
And now there are no more media questions about whether the Egyptian winger can play at Chelsea and whether he can adapt to the rhythm of the Premier League game.
Looking at Salah, who was in high spirits at the bottom line at the moment, laughing and celebrating with his teammates, the reporters on the sidelines couldn't help but sigh.
The success rate of young players brought in by Chelsea in the last two seasons is too high!
De Bruyne, Lukaku, Salah, Maguire, Karas, Van Jinkel, Ake......
Don't look at the fact that most of these young players are still on the bench in Chelsea's first team.
But if Chelsea is really willing to sell, several Premier League giants will only rush to buy it!
This talent pool is also enough to make the giants in the entire four major leagues envious.
Of course, Leon, who is also very young, is no longer classified among these young players by the media.
He is already one of the top superstars in football right now.
Perhaps it is precisely because of his role model that the young talents in the Chelsea first team are not 'long-range'.
After all, as long as a young player who has a career in pursuit, looking at a young role model like Li Ang who is full of heavyweight championship honors in front of him, he will only subconsciously put forward higher requirements for himself.
After successfully upsetting the balance of the game, the other Chelsea players on the pitch also started to assist Leon with all his assists.
Li Ang originally thought that there would be a lot of twists and turns, so he didn't deliberately pass the threat ball, and still played the game normally as before.
As a result, he didn't expect that after Liverpool conceded the goal, they gradually let go, and they started to fight against each other at Stamford Bridge.
Under the fast-paced transition between offense and defense, it is difficult for Li Ang not to seize the opportunity to send threatening passes!
In the 36th minute of the first half, Li Ang sent a straight stopper over the top in the process of counterattacking, and Hazard slanted into the Liverpool penalty area and got a half-single chance!
On the left side of the penalty area, where he is best at getting feet, Hazard made a slight adjustment and smashed a decisive shot into the far corner of the Liverpool goal.
His shot was aimed at a tricky angle, and the ball eventually spun around Mignolet's fingertips and plunged headlong into the goal!
Eden Hazard also helped Leon to his 20th league assist of the season when he scored his 20th goal of the season!
So far, Leon has successfully surpassed the data miracle of Henry the Great back then!
27 goals and 20 assists in a single season in the Premier League!
Having done this as a midfielder, it may be difficult for latecomers to replicate it!
The whole Chelsea squad was celebrating Leon's personal achievement.
In the laughter at Stamford Bridge, the Liverpool players also had a little helpless wry smile on their faces.
The second half of the game was almost entirely a training battle between the two teams.
Jose Mourinho and Brendan Rodgers have deployed their troops, both wanting to brush up their ace players.
However, Leon and Suarez failed to score or assist in the entire second half.
In the end, the score of this game was also fixed at 2-0.
In the friendly interaction after the game, Li Ang also successfully touched Suarez's heartstrings again.
"You've done everything for Liverpool, Luiz, bring your talent to London......"
