Why did my ex-girlfriend buy Chelsea?
Chapter 149
Two days later.
Chelsea's jet arrived at Madrid Barajas International Airport.
Spain's major media turned their cameras on the West London team that came from afar.
Some fans of good deeds put up slogans.
[Let Mendy face World Footballer of the Year again! ]
Last season, when facing Real Madrid, it was the mistakes of Ngolo, Mendy, Zick and others that allowed Real Madrid to enter the last four.
Chelsea's men were silent and understood it would be a battle of honour.
Thankfully, Mbappe is out injured.
But several of Real Madrid's young players can still exert their hot power.
Whether it's Rodrigue, Vinicius or Joan Emeni.
They are all leaders among young talents.
Coupled with the existence of the ceremonial three-midfielder, no team in the world can think that it will be able to beat Real Madrid.
The day before the match, Manchester City actually lost 0:1 away to AC Milan.
This was also something that could not have been anticipated before the game.
But even so, Manchester City is still far ahead in the winning odds table.
The media agreed that they would reverse their opponents at the Etihad to reach the final again after two years.
Chelsea and Real Madrid, the odds are similar.
It's more like a close match.
Ahead of the game, Tuchel announced his personnel selection.
Qin Xi and Ngoro made their debuts.
They will partner Havertz, Mount and Timo Werner up front.
It's like the offensive mix two years ago.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, sent the tridents of Vinicius, Benzema and Rodrigue.
Eden Hazard remains on the bench.
Stepping into the Bernabeu Stadium, Qin Xi felt like he was going to be melted by this football temple.
The home fans in the stands were dressed in full costume, singing moving songs.
"It's okay, West, we won here last season." Inside the passage, Mount whispered to the Hua Guo boy on the side.
"yes, I scored in that game." Werner smiled.
"If the referee hadn't blown off Alonso's ball, we would have been the ones in the semi-finals."
Looking at the calm appearance of the teammates beside him, Qin Xi also hoped that he could quickly settle down.
Such an important game, you can't be a shortcoming of the team.
......
After the start of the game, Carlo Ancelotti and Thomas Tuchel were in the dugout.
The two champions have won the last two Champions League trophies.
Uncharacteristically, the German does not want to be a roaring maniac in front of the Bernabeu fans.
Shortly after the opening, Real Madrid launched a decent attack.
After Joan Emeni took the ball, she gave it to Modric on the side.
The Croatian saw that Vinicius was already running and quickly passed behind him.
The Brazilian winger moved quickly and sent the ball into the centre of the box before James was in place.
Benzema volleyed and the ball deflected slightly off the net.
This attack also took Chelsea fans by surprise.
It seems that after winning the golden ball, the French striker still has a perfect competitive state.
Instead, the camera repeatedly focused on Casemiro and Hazard on the bench.
The two post-90s veterans have become permanent replacements for the team.
In the 18th minute, Real Madrid made a comeback.
It was Vinicius again who took the ball on the left flank, and against the strong James, he made another two-on-one combination with Benzema behind him.
The bears and horses are connected, which gives Chelsea a big headache.
Thankfully, Ngoro put the ball in place and broke the ball off the touchline before Vinicius could start.
"Mason, you have to go more and hit a right front position." Tuchel on the sidelines called Mount and told him about his new arrangements.
The Germans hoped that Mount could form a chain wall on the right with Qinxi, Ngoro and James.
After all, the corresponding Vinicius is really in a hot state.
......
It wasn't until half-time that Chelsea had a chance to score.
Havertz's close-range header was magically parried by Courtois.
Seeing the former club goalkeeper play well, Chelsea fans in the stands also booed fiercely.
They hated the Belgian and considered him a traitor to the team.
It was because of his departure that the team spent 80 million euros to sign Kepa, who could only sit on the bench.
.....
In this way, the game entered halftime with a 0-0 scoreline.
Tuchel has Gallagher and Jorginho ready to warm up.
Although the team held the first half of the game, after all, the Premier League schedule is more intensive than La Liga.
Real Madrid's physical condition is much better.
So before the start of the second half, Tuchel made a change.
Change the formation of 4 defenders.
He replaced Chalobah and Werner.
Replaced with Jorginho and Gallagher.
Tuchel wants his team to switch to 4321.
Suppress Real Madrid's trident.
Qin Xi sat at the back with Jorginho and Ngoro.
Gallagher and Mount stood in front of them, pressing more towards the wing.
As for the forward line, Kai Havertz alone is enough.
This arrangement is indeed very effective.
Chelsea piled up nearly five midfielders and held the ball firmly at their feet.
Tuchel believes he can play this destructive style as long as two of the opposing wingers are not allowed to get the ball.
Even if you get a draw, you can leave with your head held high.
Once back at Stamford Bridge, the home advantage will be realized.
......
In the 65th minute of the game, Real Madrid also made continuous personnel adjustments.
Hazard replaced Tony Ross.
It seems that Ancelotti wants to add an attacking player.
After all, getting a draw is not enough for them sitting at home.
After Eden Hazard came on, he played more often as a forward back.
The world-class winger who once dominated West London is now much less fast.
The double pressing combination of Mount and Gallagher has made the connection between Hazard and Benzema rare.
In this way, Chelsea used this destructive style of play to drag the game into 80 minutes.
Accompanied by boos from fans, the visiting London team did not care about the level of viewing of the game.
The players actively follow through the coach's arrangement.
In the 85th minute of the game, Eden Hazard finally formed a delicate combination with Vinicius.
They broke through after the first wave of interceptions in midfield.
Directly face Qin Xi.
In the process of defending Hazard, the Chinese man did not eat the opponent's move.
After being teased, Qin Xi hurriedly launched a counter-robbery.
But Hazard's pass is also one of the best.
He passed the ball to Jorginho and Thiago. In front of the two of Silva.
Benzema saw that the opportunity had come and ran into the box first.
Facing Mendy again, the French striker shot hard!
