Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Since Li Ang transferred to Chelsea, this is the first time that he feels physically and mentally exhausted after playing a game.

Losing 1-2 in the first round, Chelsea can barely accept the result, at least there is still hope in the second round.

But looking at the process of the game, rationally speaking, Chelsea fans may not think that their home team has much chance of turning the tables in the second round.

The game scene was really passive, and Li Ang was really tired, and he was tired to the naked eye.

If Li Ang can't reduce the burden on midfield defense, there is no way to liberate Chelsea's offensive ability.

Maybe Mourinho can go all out in the second round, take risks on the defensive end, and let Li Ang and the offensive players in the frontcourt give it a try?

This is a feasible tactical idea, but when I think of Bayern's seemingly stronger side attack ability, well...

Chelsea fans immediately think it's better not to seek death.

The Blues fans are not dissatisfied with their own midfield core and defensive big daddy.

The duo of Li Ang and Matic, whether they are paired as double defensive midfielders or one in front and one behind, can be regarded as the top midfield combination in Europe.

As for Lampard and Ramirez who have tried their best, Chelsea fans only have regrets in their hearts.

How can real Blues fans speak ill of Lampard and Ramirez?

They only feel regret that Li Ang and Matic did not meet the best time of Lampard and Ramirez's career.

This kind of feeling about the passing of time and the players' no longer at their peak is usually accompanied by emotional sadness.

But now Li Ang can't waste time on sadness like fans.

The day after the game, when other Chelsea main players were still digesting their emotions, resting and reviewing the game.

Li Ang drove to Cobham training base at 8 o'clock in the morning and started physical examination and early recovery training.

He couldn't suddenly improve the strength of his teammates before the start of the second round.

He could only try his best to adjust his game status to the best.

Like him, all the coaching staff of Chelsea came to the training base early the day after the Champions League semi-final.

Li Ang was training extra, and Mourinho also made the final effort with his team members to find a tactical breakthrough against Bayern.

In the end, Li Ang and Mourinho's views on the second leg of the game came to the same cognitive path:

If they still want to seize the opportunity to advance, then they have to take a risk!

On April 27, in the 36th round of the Premier League, Mourinho sent a pure substitute and rotation lineup to challenge Liverpool away.

As expected by the media before the game, Chelsea simply lost 0-2.

With only 5 days between the two Champions League battles, Chelsea's main players will definitely not continue to waste their energy in the league.

On April 28, Chelsea's main players followed the coaching staff and boarded the plane to Munich one day in advance.

On the evening of April 29, Chelsea, who had completed all the preparations, made a final fight at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

They will fight with Bayern Munich for the qualifying ticket for this season's Champions League final in this stadium.

Chelsea, who lost two away goals in the first round, has no tactical options. They must focus on offense.

Even Chelsea fans think that it is not reliable to play against the Southern King at the Allianz Arena in Munich.

But Mourinho still rarely commanded the team to be aggressive.

Li Ang, who had to retreat early in the first round to assist his teammates in defense, was forced by the coaching staff to focus 100% on the counterattack in this round.

This is not to reduce the burden on Li Ang, but purely to let Li Ang continue to deliver shells forward under the firepower of Bayern Munich on the defensive end.

To be honest, this tactic is very exciting. This is the first time that Li Ang has played like this under Mourinho.

Since the defense is not stable, let's play it freely on the offensive end!

Li Ang can feel the determination and decisiveness of his own coaching staff.

The rest of Chelsea players, especially those on the offensive end, also fought hard in this game!

From the first minute of the game, Li Ang dribbled the ball directly to the middle of Bayern Munich's seemingly strongest midfield.

Bayern's entire team's attention to Li Ang is obvious, and their double-team defense against him is also very good.

However, while withstanding the huge defensive pressure, Li Ang also took advantage of Bayern's defensive vigilance against him to create better opportunities for other Chelsea offensive players.

In the first round, Li Ang lacked helpers and his performance on the offensive end was really limited.

But now it's not just Matic and Lampard who will follow Li Ang and decisively attack.

Chelsea's two full-backs have also become Li Ang's right-hand men on the offensive end.

Even if they still can't run faster than Bayern Munich, Chelsea still has to play high-pressure and fly on both wings!

Bayern Munich's Rober-Ribbie combination is powerful, but under Chelsea's almost crazy double-sided forward pressure at the beginning, Bayern still has to temporarily avoid the edge.

Chelsea finally seized the initiative of the attack and also played with momentum at Bayern's home court.

But adventure is adventure after all.

Chelsea reaped the benefits of all-player attacking, but naturally had to bear the risk of insufficient numbers in the backcourt.

In the 18th minute of the first half of the game, Chelsea took the lead in scoring from Ibrahimovic's sweep pass from De Bruyne!

Dante was completely suppressed by Ibrahimovic in this defense. Boateng was attracted by Li Ang to defend and did not have time to double-team Ibrahimovic.

As soon as the goal was scored, Chelsea immediately became full of momentum!

However, just when Chelsea continued to press forward with all their strength and wanted to work hard to score again, Bayern's sharp counterattack came smoothly.

In the 23rd and 31st minutes of the first half, Bayern Munich scored two goals against Chelsea through two fast and sharp side counterattacks!

Thomas Muller played a huge role in these two counterattacks.

Once he received a pass from Robben after cutting inside, and used Mandzukic's cover to outflank and score a header from the back point.

Once, he personally held the ball during a counterattack, and after attracting the defensive attention of Matic and David Luiz, he sent a through ball and assisted Ribery with a low shot in the penalty area!

Matic was a little anxious. Against an offensive player like Muller who was slippery and didn't seem to have great foot skills, his marking seemed to have no effect at all.

Li Ang could only patiently calm Matic's emotions during the halftime break.

To deal with a special player like Muller who can run and always get into position, if you want to restrict his performance, you really have to directly defend him for the entire game like Li Ang did.

If you don't do this, then if you guard him from the front for seven or eighty minutes, he may suddenly come out in stoppage time and give you a hard hit!

But now Li Ang definitely can't retreat to restrict Muller's performance.

At the beginning of the second half, Chelsea put on an iron-headed attitude and still wanted to continue to increase their offensive intensity.

So neutral fans watching this game are in for a treat.

The fierce offensive and defensive competition between the two teams in the first half continued into the second half, and it didn't look like it was going to stop at all.

In the end, Chelsea did get what they wanted and scored the team's second goal of the game, erasing Bayern Munich's two away goal advantages.

But before that, Bayern had already scored their third goal in the game.

Mandzukic went crazy and hit a volley side hook that shocked everyone!

This Croatian center, who is also very good at tough battles, proved at this moment that he is fully worthy of Heynckes' trust.

Mandzukic can completely put Gomez on the bench this season. How can he be the civilian center promoted by the British media before the game?

As soon as the goal was scored, Bayern Munich simply entered the stage of shrinking the defense and consolidating the victory.

With a two-goal lead in hand, Bayern's entire team played calmly, and Chelsea's bus-busting methods in the past didn't seem to work much for Bayern today.

After all, Bayern's double midfielders are strong enough to interfere with and intercept Chelsea's penetrating long-range shots.

In their penalty area, two tall central defenders are enough to prevent Chelsea's high-altitude bombing.

When the referee finally blew the whistle to end the game, Li Ang had just fired a long shot.

Neuer chose to hit Li Ang's long shot with both hands.

After hearing the referee's whistle, Neuer rolled over from the turf and screamed to the sky with excitement.

The Bayern players on the bench also rushed into the stadium in excitement.

Li Ang pursed his lips, put his hands on his knees and took a few deep breaths. Then he stood up straight again and walked towards his teammates.

The Premier League schedule is not over yet, but Chelsea has already won the championship ahead of schedule, so after being eliminated from the Champions League, Chelsea's journey this season has also come to an end.

Li Ang originally thought that he would feel very unwilling after losing to Bayern.

But at this moment, his heart was surprisingly calm.

He was so calm that he even had extra energy and thoughts to comfort his teammates.

Seeing the Bayern Munich players on the other side excitedly celebrating that the team had reached the Champions League final again, Li Ang felt as if he was in a trance.

Last season, the season before that.

He and his teammates in Real Madrid celebrated their entry into the Champions League final with such high spirits and excitement, and also looked forward to winning the Champions League championship.

Chelsea now is like Bayern and Dortmund at that time.

Some people win, and some people lose.

No team or star can always be the winner in the world of competitive football.

Li Ang has always felt that he was very lucky. In the important stage of his career, he accompanied Real Madrid to rise together.

In the past few seasons, he has also won the heavyweight championship trophy that many professional players are envious of.

He has already tasted the taste of victory and winning glory.

Now facing the ups and downs and failures in the Champions League, Li Ang discovered that he could face it calmly.

It's not about escaping, nor is it about satisfying the pursuit of honor.

Rather, his heart is always filled with trust in his own strength and expectations for the new team's growth prospects.

"This is a valuable lesson we learned in the Champions League. If we fall this time, we can get up better next time. Come back next season. By then, you have to work hard to become stronger, Eden..."

After comforting the teammates in front, he finally came to Hazard, who had red eyes, and Li Ang gave him a firm hug.

Mourinho walked onto the pitch.

Chelsea's season is over. They failed to reach the end of the Champions League, but Mourinho is extremely satisfied with his disciples.

One of the more cruel things for Chelsea's veterans is that they have to slowly give up more starting time after the end of this season.

But the young talents in the Chelsea team will benefit from this. They will further hone themselves and improve their strength.

And this new Blues team will further develop its potential and have a higher ceiling of strength.

Mourinho will not make too many cleaning moves on the team.

Except for veterans who want to leave voluntarily and players who are not suitable for his team building ideas, other Chelsea players who want to stay and continue to fight for the team will receive new contract extensions.

Chelsea on the right path needs more than just talented young talent and key stars in their prime.

Mourinho also needs Green Leaf Jigsaw and experienced veterans to strengthen the thickness of the bench.

After all, there is nothing wrong with this idea of ​​team building.

Chelsea's 2013-2014 season is over today, but Mourinho's planning and preparations for the new season have quietly begun.

After gathering at the scene and expressing their gratitude to the fans who came all the way to accompany them in the battle, the Chelsea players quickly returned to the visiting team's locker room.

Munich tonight is a city where everyone at Chelsea cannot sleep peacefully.

So after quickly cleaning up and cleaning up, the Chelsea players and the coaching staff rushed back to London overnight.

The remaining two rounds of Premier League matches have little meaning for the veterans in the Chelsea team.

Suarez scored his 30th Premier League goal of the season in the last league game against Chelsea.

Ibrahimovic's current number of Premier League goals is 22, and it is not practical to catch up with Suarez in two rounds.

So Ibrahimovic, like Lampard, started his vacation early after returning to London from Munich.

Li Ang is because his current personal data has increased to 30 goals and 28 assists, and he is still 2 assists away from achieving the double 30-plus achievement for the season.

Therefore, in the 37th round of the Premier League on May 4, Li Ang was still the starter, leading his teammates to meet the challenge from Norwich, the deputy captain of the league.

The game that day was not intense, because before the game started, Norwich had been relegated two rounds in advance.

Without the motivation to avoid relegation, it is really difficult for Norwich players to raise their fighting spirit in the game.

Li Ang is not pretentious in his pursuit of data.

However, facing an opponent who had no intention of fighting, he had no idea of ​​raking in data.

After assisting Oscar and De Bruyne to score in the first half, Li Ang took the initiative to make a substitution gesture to Mourinho.

His season data is fixed at 30 goals and 30 assists.

However, his league data did not exceed double 20, missing one goal.

But Li Ang doesn't care much anymore. He is already very satisfied to reach the double 30 data record for the season.

Besides, he has been tired for a season, and it's time to relax and rest.

For the sake of a goal, he competed with the young players from the team's youth training for the starting spot in the last round of a meaningless league. It's really embarrassing to say it out loud.

After the season finale against Norwich City, Chelsea received the 2013-2014 Premier League Championship trophy in the presence of the home fans!

On the podium, the entire Chelsea team and fans shared this joyous moment of celebration.

On May 11, after the last round of the league this season, Chelsea also held a championship parade in London.

Then comes the happy holiday time.

Li Ang started his summer training with a special task assigned by Mourinho.

On May 24, Li Ang, who completed the first phase of additional training tasks, set off for Lisbon, Portugal.

At the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, Li Ang disguised himself and witnessed the moment when Bayern finally defeated Atletico Madrid 3-1 to win the Champions League championship in the stands.

Yes, after Chelsea lost to Bayern Munich and missed the Champions League final, Real Madrid was also tied 0-0 by Atletico Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

So this season, it was not just Li Ang who failed to reach the end and meet his Real Madrid teammates at the top.

Bayern Munich also failed to see the object of their revenge in the Champions League final.

Atletico Madrid still became a tragic hero, and in the end they could only watch Bayern reach the top of Europe.

But Li Ang came to Lisbon today not just to watch football.

He quietly left after the game, and while checking into a hotel nearby, he sent a text message to his old friend Toni Kroos, who came on as a substitute at the last minute.

At this moment, he was celebrating the end with his teammates, temporarily forgetting about the communication issue with the club about contract renewal. Cross, who was full of joy, was stunned when he saw the congratulatory text message sent by Li Ang.

Back in Munich that night, at the team's celebration banquet, Toni Kroos's mood seemed to be affected by Li Ang's text message.

After returning home, Cross did not call his agent first. He wanted to think about it on his own first.

But as soon as he closed his eyes that night, the straightforward and generous words of seduction in Li Ang's text message would appear in his mind...

"TK, brother, the boss here is generous and the salary is generous. More importantly, there is a famous coach and brother here. Brother knows that what you want is not money, but respect! It just so happens that we have enough respect and money here!

And you have already helped Bayern win the Champions League, so you have done your best! I believe that your ability can be used wherever you go. Sooner or later, Bayern's senior management will regret their attitude towards you.

A new life and a road of honor are waiting for you in London. We will recruit more troops in the summer and continue to strive for the Triple Crown next year. Mourinho misses you dearly. Brothers also look forward to cooperating with you. Come quickly, come quickly... "
