At 03:45 a.m. Beijing time on January 6, the first leg of the Premier League Cup semi-final began, and Chelsea sat at Stamford Bridge to meet Tottenham Hotspur.
In the first half, Alonso assisted on Havertz's blitz, Andtanga made a mistake, causing teammate Ben Davis to accidentally oolong, and Chelsea led 2-0 at halftime; in the second half, both sides attacked and defended each other, but neither achieved anything.
In the end, Chelsea won 2-0 Spurs and won the opportunity to advance to the final of the Premier League Cup.
Lukaku apologized after starting + dud + Blues starting minimum score, Sun Kai dudd, Havertz Jiangong, Chelsea 2-0 Spurs!
In this campaign, Lukaku apologized to chelsea coaches and players and returned to the starting lineup, but the little monster was in a slump, not only dumb, but also the lowest rating among the Blues' starting 11, the Belgian center only scored 6.3 points, except for Mount who was 6.8 points, the rest of the Blues players scored above 7 points, which is enough to show that Lukaku's state is really bad. Havertz blitz was successful, Spurs' backline missteps were weak, Son and Kane started but collectively muted. Conte faced the old lord and was tactically suppressed by Tuchel. In the end, Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-0 to win the final of the League Cup.
Throughout the game, Chelsea had 64% possession, with a total of 19 shots on goal, six of which were on target, while Tottenham had just five shots on goal, two of which were on target. The Premier League pattern is still manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea is the strength of the championship group, Arsenal, Tottenham, West Ham United, Manchester United is the strength of the four groups. There is also Lukaku, who killed in Italy, but it is difficult to move forward in England, which is the fundamental reason why he and Inter "show love" were punished by Chelsea, saying that the tacky point is that Lukaku returned to the Premier League with the pride of Serie A and found himself from a super striker to an ordinary striker, which is a bit difficult to accept. Because there are so many centre-backs in the Premier League who are stronger than Lukaku, he can't attack with the defender's body like in Serie A.
