Two legs in the Champions League, Real Madrid finally eliminated Chelsea with a big score of 5:4 and entered the final four of the Champions League, LiaoQiujun once had a brief prediction before the game, and believed that Chelsea has the ability to reverse, but if it wants to reverse success, it depends on whether Carlo Ancelotti will live.
Now that the results have come out, you have also made it clear that Ancelotti did not work well, but Chelsea almost lost a loss to reverse the success, but the reversal is not absolute, it is equivalent to no reversal, when the game is delayed, facing the extremely experienced Real Madrid, Chelsea can only be under Benzema's wonderful header, eclipsed.
Chelsea's starting line-up has changed a lot
First of all, to analyze the two sides of the start, the Real Madrid side has basically changed little, only Militão is absent, and Nacho is on top, which undoubtedly makes Real Madrid's air defense a hard injury, the average height of less than 180 defense, but also gave Rudiger the opportunity to equalize.
In addition, Valverde continues to appear in the right wing position, and in actual games he will be more introverted, biased towards defense, so that Real Madrid's three midfielders can run more smoothly.
Chelsea's side has changed a lot, starting with centre-back, Reece James replacing the relatively slow Christensen and Cheek at right wing-back.
Captain Azpilicueta also had to sit on the bench due to his positive return from the new crown, the left wing-back was replaced by Alonso, and in the midfield, the metronome Jorginho was directly placed on the bench, and the more mobile Kovacic started as desired.
In terms of forwards, Werner, who performed well in the Champions League at the weekend, started the game, which is also expected by The Captain, his start is necessary, Tuchel has done the ultimate in order to pursue the opportunity to reverse, and Ancelotti is basically unchanged.
Real Madrid's defence could not keep up with Chelsea's attack
Through this game, Real Madrid's defense does have major problems, first of all, in the midfield defense, facing Chelsea extremely flexible interspersed with running positions, Real Madrid has many loopholes, and it is easy for Chelsea to seize the opportunity.
Real Madrid conceded their first goal against Chelsea
Before Mount scored, Real Madrid's defensive line was broken from a systematic defensive mode to Chelsea's many attempts, and in the short period of time when the defenders were confused, Chelsea immediately completed a 3-foot pass from organization to assist, the ball was placed directly in front of Courtois, and Mount calmly recovered the first goal.
Real Madrid's defense, which at first seemed good, but in fact it was difficult to keep up with the active and flexible Chelsea players, in this attack, the Real Madrid players completely overlooked Werner, who had a large space, and at the moment he held the ball, it was too late, but it made it easier for Mount to penetrate into the box.
If you look closely, Chelsea can also cut or cross on the right side through a wide range of passes, and once the width of the game is pulled apart, Real Madrid's defense will also have problems.
This is a reality that Real Madrid has to face as its personnel age.
Chelsea scored their second goal
Shortly after the start of the second half, Chelsea scored a second goal, directly equalizing the score, a goal that gave chelsea players hope for a big comeback.
This is what we said at the beginning, the consequences of Real Madrid's four defensive players, the average height is less than 180, Rudiger under the starting cover of his sister-in-law, the header broke the goal, and Alaba not only did not judge the right landing point, at the same time, his starting jump did not have too much interference with the sister-in-law, Real Madrid's defense needs to be matched with a good head, tall and tall center-back.
Real Madrid are very threatening during this time, because it is close to the end of regular time, Chelsea have a lot of offensive means, and at the same time, they have just equalized the morale of the score.
In the 64th minute, Alonso's handball goal in the penalty area is the best interpretation, if Alonso can handle it better, Real Madrid probably will not have the opportunity to extra time!
Chelsea scored a reverse goal in the 75th minute
Werner's goal in the 75th minute once again reflected the Real Madrid defensive line, which could easily turn into "paper paste" when faced with Chelsea's accelerated attack.
A light straight plug, but no one can limit Werner, Casemuro who found the situation is in Werner's shaking, in advance "handing over a big move", a sliding shovel loses control of the body, Werner three shakes, two shakes, scored a stumbling and inevitable goal.
At this time, it is very difficult for Real Madrid to "return to heaven", because with the passage of time, Real Madrid's veterans may not be able to eat.
The spirit of Real Madrid's veterans!
But Ancelotti made a decision in the 78th minute that could save his career at Real Madrid: Marcelo and Rodrigo replaced Mendy and Casemiro respectively, and Real Madrid had to fight.
And it was rodrigo who, in just two minutes, received a wonderful instep assist from Modric from a long distance, equalizing the score!
Modric saved Real Madrid at a crucial moment
This is completely a "flying fairy" assist, or it is also appropriate to describe it as "out of nothing", Chelsea's fault is that it failed to kill the game further, Real Madrid did not give Chelsea such an opportunity, but Chelsea failed to grasp it, of course, this is also beyond reproach, after all, Messi Cristiano's peak period, not every shot can score.
When both sides put all their energy into extra time, Real Madrid, which has many years of Experience in Extra Time in the Champions League, even though there are more veterans, they still laugh to the end.
Benzema received an assist from Vinicius
When the game came to extra time, Real Madrid's backline foursome was like this: Vazquez, Carvajal, Alaba, Marcelo, what a strange defensive line, not only shorter than the defense at the beginning, but also had a lot of colanders.
And if the Chelsea side can get on Lukaku, even if Lukaku is a "tin man" in the penalty area, he may be able to get in one, but the Real Madrid side also has a reaction: the height is not afraid, through the flexibility of the players to block the Chelsea side of the cross and shot!
In this game, Real Madrid players have completed a total of 9 successful blocks, which is 9 times that of Chelsea!
In extra time, on the one hand, Real Madrid's response is effective, on the other hand, it is the fighting spirit of Real Madrid veterans who never give up!
The Real Madrid veterans are full of hard work
Fans of the original 9248 miracle will know what the former Real Madrid represents, strong is not all synonymous with them, more importantly, never give up, 37-year-old Modric and 34-year-old Benzema fought for 120 minutes, and when the game ended they were lying on the turf!
It is impossible not to tire, and even think that in the league with Sevilla at the weekend, Real Madrid will have a hard time relying on these two veterans, in order to better cope with the future semi-finals, Real Madrid have a reason to let them rest.
Chelsea played really well in this game, more targeted and more clear in attacking direction, but unfortunately they met the best team in the history of the Champions League, and the best team in the Champions League this century! Almost reversed at the home of Real Madrid! Chelsea deserves the applause.
Conclusion: Talk about the future of Real Madrid in the Champions League
Benzema will compete for the Champions League Golden Boot!
At present, Benzema has scored only one less goal in the Champions League than Levan, who has been eliminated! As long as Benzema continues to maintain his excellent form, he can win the first Champions League Golden Boot!
But for the future of Real Madrid in the Champions League, a Benzema can not solve all the problems of Real Madrid, LiaoQiujun believes that if it is Manchester City to qualify, Real Madrid really need to continue the miracle to reach the final, on the contrary, if atletico is promoted, Real Madrid's road to promotion will be much smoother!
And this is also the 10th time that Real Madrid has entered the Champions League semi-finals in the past 12 years, while playing Paris Saint-Germain in the 16th round and Chelsea in the top 8 have proved that the strength of this Real Madrid team, Liaoqiujun is also looking forward to Real Madrid can enter the Champions League final, Benzema can get the Champions League Golden Boot! This Real Madrid deserves it!
