Chapter 354 Master of Miracles, Iron-Blooded Blue Army
Long Shute's so-called prophecy really came true one day later.

Chelsea, who have experienced a coaching change, beat Barcelona 1-0 in the first round at home relying on Drogba, but no one is still optimistic about the Blues.

The reason is too simple:

What does this Chelsea team have to compete with Barcelona?
On Barcelona's side is Guardiola, the world's number one head coach who single-handedly brought out the Dream Three Dynasty and the Cosmos team. His disciples are all superstars.

What's going on with Chelsea?
In the past few years, Abramovich has been tightening money, and he has completely ignored the previous spending on buying people, and the team's performance has also declined significantly. This season, they even fell to tenth in the league. There is no sign of entering the top four. possible.

As for the Champions League, no one dares to think about it.

Mourinho didn't do it, Ancelotti and Benitez couldn't find it, a temporary firefighter Di Matteo... what skills does he have? !

But God is so elusive.

At the start of the game, Chelsea defender Cahill strained his thigh while defending Messi and had to be substituted.

A few minutes later, Barcelona also injured a defender: Pique, who was defending Drogba, was knocked over by his own goalkeeper Valdes and sent directly off the pitch.

In the 35th minute, the teenager Quinta, who accidentally replaced Alves in the starting line-up, made a cross from the side. Busquets, who appeared in the penalty area inexplicably, pushed into the net and equalized the total score.

After conceding the ball, Chelsea obviously became impatient, and they suffered a more painful fatal blow half a minute later!
In the 36th minute, Terry, the captain of the blue team, confronted Sanchez from behind. Sanchez immediately fell to the ground in pain. The referee directly sent Terry off with a red card!
Without the captain, Chelsea barely lasted for seven or eight minutes, and finally suffered another blow in the 8th minute. Messi and Iniesta quickly switched positions, and assisted Xiaobai with a through pass to overtake the total score!
But just half a minute later, Chelsea equalized the total score:
Mata sent a through pass in the opponent's press, and Ramirez turned offside and formed a single-handedly. This Brazilian player who was transformed into a midfielder still did not forget the Samba blood in his body at the critical moment. Facing Valdes, he calmly lobbed the ball into the net!
The aggregate score became 2-2, but Chelsea had a precious away goal and they still held the advantage.

But even so, after the start of the second half, no one thought that the outcome of the game was still in suspense. Even the die-hard fans of the Blues were probably in despair.

One of the main defenders was injured, and the other defender was sent off again. Bosingwa, who was old and weak and had always been unreliable in defense, was replaced, and he was still at Barcelona's home court...

You know, even in their own home court, Chelsea have never enjoyed the special care of UEFA, let alone Barcelona, ​​which they hated the most?
It is said that they have the support of UEFA... they can easily get a penalty!
Everything seems to be going according to script.

In the second minute of the second half, Chelsea, who had finally won a respite, walked on the edge of a cliff again!

Drogba, who actively returned to the penalty area, tripped Cesc Fabregas, the undoubted penalty!
The whole Camp Nou was full of cheers. Barcelona fans had already seen the gate of the final. They couldn't wait to fly to Munich and watch their Cosmos team regain their own Champions League trophy!
But this is God's will.

Faced with Petr Cech twisting his waist on the goal line, Messi's vigorous blast hit the door frame and missed the best chance to regain the lead.

Chelsea, who narrowly escaped death, seemed to be possessed by a holy light at this moment, and their confidence was reunited with this penalty.

Barcelona's offensive is still fierce, but they met Petr Cech at his peak, and the Czech goalkeeper wearing a tank cap blocked it high. He never let Messi and his teammates break through the goal behind him. Let Messi shake his head and sigh again and again.

Chelsea have truly demonstrated what an impregnable defense looks like.

They formed a jaw-dropping 630 lineup, with six defenders forming a steel line of defense on the edge of the penalty area, while the three frontcourt players became entangled defensive midfielders at this time, and even Drogba became one. A central defender, he frequently used his strong body to clear Barcelona's crosses.

The intensity of this game is difficult to describe in simple words. Even Messi, who has always been low-key, fought with Lampard in the game. Many players from both sides were absent in this game due to fouls and yellow cards. Next game - if they make it.

Fierce scrambling and strangulation appeared in every area of ​​the court, and every dribble and touch of the ball would trigger the opponent's encirclement and suppression, but Barcelona still took advantage of the number of advantages, as well as the peak passing coordination to firmly control the ball. Under his feet, Chelsea was always pressed in the half-court and could not move.

Mata, who lacked physical confrontation, was replaced in 58 minutes, and Drogba, the Ivorian monster who has always been excellent in physical fitness, had a strong cramp in the 70th minute-this shows how great the pressure on their defense is!

After persisting for a few minutes, the exhausted Drogba was finally replaced by Torres. Everyone gave up on this Chelsea team!
Because Torres ran directly to the left back position after playing!

He didn't come to attack, but to help Ashley Cole guard the back line!
On China's Internet, the nickname of "Tie Wei Tuo Niu" was once again quarreled by fans, and Torres, who played as a guest defender, also became the main attack point of Barcelona. Messi, Pedro, Sanchez, Iniesta, Arles Weiss took turns to attack him, and Torres lost his position twice in just 5 minutes, allowing Barcelona to form a breakthrough from him.

Fortunately, there are still heavy defenses in front of Chelsea's goal. Bosingwa, who was criticized as unreliable, focused on defense and made several successful clearances in a row. Together with Petr Cech, who was protected by Shenguang, and Camp Nou's The goal suddenly turned back today and blocked Messi's two shots in a row. Barcelona's goal never came again...

Barcelona's attack reached its peak in the last moments of the game. Except for goalkeeper Valdez, the remaining ten players all pressed into Chelsea's 30-meter area.

As Harvey had no physical fitness, Messi took the ball outside the penalty area to launch an attack, while several Barcelona players advanced towards the Chelsea penalty area at the same time, Messi launched a through ball alertly.

But with five defenders in front of Chelsea's six-yard box, Messi's through ball hit Bosingwa and bounced off Ashley Cole.

The former world-class left-back kicked the football into the sky with his big foot. Many people are lamenting the interruption of Barcelona's attack.

He Wei and Zhang Lu, who were in charge of the commentary, let out a "huh" in unison.

The live camera quickly turned to Barcelona's half, but there was only one Busquets in this area who was chasing back.

The two narrators were wondering why Busquets ran so fast, and the screen had already given the answer:
At the end of the shot, a Chelsea player in white (away) is chasing the football into the penalty area at high speed!
His long hair shone with golden light at the Nou Camp, becoming the color most feared by Barcelona fans!
Fernando...Torres!

The Spanish golden boy who played left back for more than ten minutes suddenly showed his claws at the last moment. He swept across the entire half like the wind, swiped lightly in front of Valdes, and then pushed into the net!

2-2!The total score is 3-2!

Chelsea destroys Barcelona's last hope of reaching the final!
Despite paying the price of the suspension of Terry, Ivanovic, Ramirez and many other players, the Blues still advanced to the final with their heads held high.

After 25 days, they will travel to the Allianz Arena in Munich.

Waiting for them is the Bundesliga overlord, Bayern Munich, who has sunk the Galactic battleship!
The decisive battle is on May 5!
