In the second leg of the League Cup semi-finals, Chelsea 1-0 again kept a clean sheet for Tottenham Hotspur, the aggregate score was 3-0 to advance to the final, the two legs of the game were easier than expected, Kane and Son Heung-min did not score more than the loss, Conte as the former Chelsea manager also did not target the deployment, the team can only accept the result of the exit. Tuchel has proven to be highly skilled, and his recent rotation of the team is in place, and Chelsea are expected to achieve better results as the players recover from injuries.
In the second leg of the League Cup, Kane had a goal that was blown offside, Kepa attacked to try to resolve the danger but did not return to the front of the goal, what people did not expect was that he sang an empty city plan on the spot, which directly led to Kane's goal offside being judged invalid, and it was also considered to be a successful camera after the game. Because of the connection between Kane and Lucas Jr., who was fouled by goalkeeper Kepa shortly after the start of the second half, the referee first awarded a penalty and then changed the decision, because the place of the incident was outside the box, coupled with the creation of offside traps, it can be seen that Kepa in this game often wandered outside the box, which is indeed a very interesting performance.
The amount of knowledge in this game is also quite large, because Kepa is behind Kane, Rudiger becomes the last player of the Blues, Kane's foot is closer to the offside line than Christensen, so the offside penalty is indeed accurate, and Kepa's first hand to show offside is also very accurate, because he has clearly judged that his position can create an offside. It is not known whether Kepa really did it on purpose, because his kick-off was not handed over to his teammates, and he was also the main person responsible for the danger in front of the goal, and his clever move also ensured that the goal was not lost, and the goal god was indeed a double-edged sword.
Mendy is Chelsea's first goalkeeper this season, and Kepa's performance as a substitute goalkeeper is also good, but Tuchel has also given the third goalkeeper a chance to play, so Kepa has less time to play. If he can find the next one with his excellent performance and serve as the starting goalkeeper, Kepa's career will reach new heights, which is the main reason for his positive performance.
Any player who does not play for a long time will affect the state of the competition, so Kepa is also justifying his own name. Looking back at the two-legged match between the two teams, Chelsea defeated their opponents 2-0 in the first leg, Havertz scored and Ben Davis sent a oolong ball. The goal in the second leg was scored in the 18th minute, Chelsea won a corner, Rudiger scored a header in the box to take the lead, the big man is currently caught in the transfer rumours, with this goal should be able to get a satisfactory contract extension, Chelsea really should do their best to retain the key gentleman of the backline.
Chelsea's recent fixtures have been intense, with a big win in the last FA Cup game, Kante missing out on the squad, Havertz coming off the bench, and in this game Kante was in the 77th minute, he replaced Mateo Kovacic, and it was clear that Tuchel was preparing for the weekend against Manchester City. In this game, Chelsea has been able to catch the opponent with ease, and the morale of the team has also been improved, which is also beneficial to the league battle against Manchester City.
In the last game, Kepa and Jorginho were on the bench, and in this game, Saul, Havertz and Pulisic did not appear on the bench, and these players should also stay against Manchester City. In this game, Chelsea shot 13-15 on goal, the shots were all 3 times, Chelsea seized the opportunity, other statistics are also very similar, the key to winning is the performance of the knife defender to beat Tottenham, chelsea driving backwards is indeed difficult to stop. City do not have a League Cup match, and the team have seven days to prepare after the FA Cup 4-1 Swindon, so chelsea and the Blue Moon still need to do enough defense in the top battle, because the fatigue of the players is obvious, and the opponent has home advantage in addition to physical fitness.
Against Tottenham, Chelsea made a number of substitutions, with Silva, Zik, Kante, Ziyech and Alonso coming on as a substitute, replacing Christensen, Jorginho, Mateo Kovacic, Mount and Werner. These players could also be the starting line-up for the ensuing battle against Manchester City. The players who played the full game were Kepa, Sal, Rudiger, Azpilicueta, Hudson-Hudson-Odoi, Lukaku, And Rudiger and the captain and Lukaku may also play consecutive games. Because Lukaku had previously made inappropriate remarks about not having a chance to appear in the strong dialogue, and then apologized, the general was also very harmonious, but Tuchel should also understand the little devil's desire for strong dialogue, so the possibility of continuing to send Lukaku to start also exists. It's just that Werner and Havertz have both done well recently, and the manager will have more ideas for arranging a squad.
