Week.

Chelsea face two cup matches.

This year's League Cup and FA Cup have changed their schedules because of the World Cup.

In midweek, the League Cup quarter-finals will arrive.

And over the weekend, Chelsea will also have their first FA Cup game of the season.

The Devil's Race is on the verge.

Starting this week, Chelsea will continue an intensive two-week fixture schedule.

Tuchel held a mobilisation meeting for the dressing room ahead of the Carabao Cup.

Before the game, many would have thought that the German coach would choose to give up some chicken ribs.

But Tuchel told the group that he wanted the lads to give their best.

With the arrival of Corona.

Chelsea's bench depth is sufficient for the fourth tier.

He hopes that everyone can unleash their power on the field and strive for the end of the season and win all the trophies.

Looking at history, Chelsea have never won a quadruple and that's a dream and a hope.

In this Carabao Cup, he sent some of the main team.

Although the team played against Villa last time, the main players have all played.

But this time against Leeds United in the Championship, Tuchel knows the strength of his opponents.

The opponent is currently No. 1 in the Championship and will return to the Premier League next season.

......

All the main players played, a 3-0 victory over the opponent.

In the second half, new signing Corona also made his debut for the team.

He put on the team's number 27 shirt.

Help the team advance to the semifinals.

With the other three teams after the cut.

The Carabao Cup matchup situation has also surfaced.

The team will face old rivals Manchester United in the semi-finals.

This season, under new manager Ten Hag, Manchester United have played relatively solidly.

But there is a problem, the ability to abuse vegetables is strong, but against the remaining teams of BIG6, plus Newcastle, Manchester United's record is not good.

......

FA Cup at the weekend.

Qin Xi could finally usher in a long-lost rest.

Tuchel has rotated extensively.

Prepare for next week's trip to Plzeň, Czech Republic.

The opponent in the FA Cup was Portsmouth.

Around 2006, he was also a regular in the Premier League.

In the main squad, only Kovacic and Conde in the back line appeared.

Most of the other players were given the opportunity to take a break.

In this game, Chelsea still defeated their opponents without bloodshed.

Progressed to the next round.

However, the club did not sign well, and Premier League side Southampton were drawn in the fourth round.

......

Two days later.

The West London team is ready to go.

The Champions League knockout round has finally arrived.

Many of the new signings in both transfer windows have not played in the knockout stages of the Champions League.

The two most special people are Rafinha and Qin Xi.

Tuchel deployed before the game.

In this game, these two will start.

It seems that Hua Guo No. 13 made his Champions League knockout debut.

Coming soon.

Plzeň won and is still at the top of the Czech First Division.

They are in good form with four straight league wins.

Chelsea's defensive form was not ideal after the World Cup.

Even against a team like Portsmouth in the FA Cup, they couldn't keep a clean sheet.

Tuchel told his disciples that they needed to raise their spirits for this match.

Try to return to Stamford Bridge with good grades.

This will allow the German manager to allocate reasonable numbers in the following intensive schedule.

The good news is that Reese. James did not travel with the team.

But he was ready for recovery training.

Join the team's tactical training, and it will be just around the corner.

......

February 2022, Pilsen City Stadium.

The eighth-quarters knockout stage of the Champions League is on the verge.

The Czech team built up confidence in the final round of the group stage.

The fans of the home team are enthusiastic.

You know, it's not common to see the home team on your doorstep playing against a top team like Chelsea.

Therefore, manager Billek expressed his respect for Chelsea in his pre-match press conference.

Together with Chelsea's current technical director, he is also a legend in Czech football.

Although the Chelsea legend had nothing to do with Pilsen's victory, his influence drew cheers from fans.

In this way, Qin Xi's first Champions League knockout match was imminent.

The Czech champions, after all, cannot yet match the intensity of the Premier League.

At the beginning of the match, Qin Xi did not feel the same pressure as he did against Wolves and Vera.

In the 7th minute, Chelsea organised the attack on the left.

Qin Xi infiltrated the front of the opponent's forbidden area.

Mount on the wing gave the ball to his Chinese friend.

Qin Xi greeted the ball with a long-range shot, and the ball hit the post and popped up.

The fans were in an uproar.

This is a good sign, it seems that in this game, the Chinese players can also get some offensive opportunities.

Tuchel is still on the sidelines guiding his disciples.

He took the time to call Qin Xi to his side.

"Go up and attack when you have the chance, kid, but you still have to keep an eye on the opposing No.7 winger and don't leave a big gap behind him."

Tuchel's push makes sense.

Plzen Victory is better at playing defensive counterattacks.

Therefore, if Qin Xi presses too much, it is likely to keep the back line tight.

Coupled with the team's delay in scoring its first goal, there has been a slight change in mentality.

Havertz, who started the game, continued to inherit his excellent form in this game.

Since winning the World Cup Golden Boot, the club No. 29 has become more confident.

In the 32nd minute, Kai Havertz had the ball in the middle.

Seeing that Mount next to him was running, he was not in a hurry to pass the ball.

Instead, he waited for the new signing Corona next to him to press to the edge of the opponent's right penalty area, and deftly distributed the ball to the latter.

Corona's pass, but one of the best in the team.

He immediately crossed from 45 degrees.

Mount followed and pushed the ball into the net with his forehead.

1:0, the away team led by one goal.

It was a perfect fit, and Havertz, who completed the penultimate pass, was indispensable.

The left road guarded by Qin Xi is still steady.

Although Pilsen Victory's No. 7 Solman is the team's number one dribbling machine.

It can face the wall-like Hua Guo No. 13.

The Czechs were helpless.

The score was held until halffield.

......

At the start of the second half, Tuchel waved his hand and replaced Conde and Kovacic.

They started in the FA Cup and it was time to rest the two main players.

Jorginho and Chalobah appeared.

The German also wants to increase control of the game.

Even if you are just one goal ahead, it is enough to return to Stamford Bridge with this scoreline.

......

Qin Xi's state is also getting better and better.

He remembered the phone call Qi Xin had in the dressing room before the start of the game.

Boss Qi is now in the sidelines, she promised.

If the club can win away from home, she will enjoy delicious bohemian food for curly-haired men.
