After the game started, Chelsea did not play very proactively. They were more of a defender. It can be seen that Lampard's tactics today are mainly defensive counterattacks.
Although Lampard's words before the game were very strong, he was still very pragmatic during the game.
They knew that AC Milan was very strong. At this time, they did not confront AC Milan head-on, but chose to wait for the opportunity and strike later.
This tactical thinking may really be influenced by Mourinho to a certain extent.
AC Milan started the game with high pressure and played very strongly.
This made many Chelsea fans at the scene take a breath, because they saw the shadow of the Crystal Palace in its heyday from AC Milan. Some old fans and knowledgeable fans began to get nervous.
, I feel a little worried.
If this game continues like this, will Chelsea still have a chance?
Soon, AC Milan took control of the ball and began to attack Chelsea's goal frequently.
AC Milan's high pressure is indeed very effective. Chelsea players have no chance to play the ball comfortably. Instead, the Chelsea players become more chaotic and worse.
This made Chelsea fans very nervous.
Adriana in the stands couldn't help but said, "Looking at the current situation, it's really impossible for Chelsea to win!" Webster next to her didn't defend herself when she heard this, but instead nodded.
Nod to show approval.
This didn't surprise Delvestri.
Because judging from the progress of this game, AC Milan's chances of winning are really too great, and Chelsea people have almost no chance.
The strength gap between the two teams is indeed quite large.
Of course, to put it more bluntly, the gap between Lampard and Tong Yi is too big. This game was almost completely controlled by Tong Yi. But Lampard was just exhausted, and the defense was still weak.
It becomes more dangerous every time. If this continues, Chelsea will lose the ball sooner or later!
Chelsea's players were in good shape in this game and played very actively.
However, they played a bit awkwardly.
Firstly, AC Milan's fierce high-position pressure from the opposite side really made them uncomfortable to play. Secondly, Lampard's current tactics also made them play a bit awkward, giving them a feeling that they clearly felt that their bodies
I'm full of energy, but I just can't show it.
Therefore, Chelsea people are very passive now, and even some Chelsea fans can't stand it anymore.
Because they can't see any hope.
Lampard was also very anxious on the sidelines, biting his nails in anxiety.
He bit his nails and stared at the court, thinking about ways to break the game.
And at this moment, AC Milan's high pressure was effective again.
forward pressure
Joan Armene actually intercepted the football from Jorginho's feet. Jorginho failed to find a suitable route and opportunity to release the ball under the continuous pressure of the opponent's players, and the ball was intercepted after a slight hesitation.
The Chelsea fans at the scene immediately became frightened and screamed.
Joan Armene caught up with the ball and did not give Kovacic, who was rushing to defend from the side, a chance. He immediately swept the ball diagonally and passed it to Goretzka in front.
As soon as Goretzka caught the ball, Kovacic immediately turned around and pounced on Goretzka.
At the same time, Barkley also quickly retreated and rushed towards Goretzka from another direction. The Chelsea people were trying to grab Goretzka. The AC Milan fans at the scene were all nervous and felt the danger.
However, Goretzka was very calm and easily knocked the football to Joan Armene who was following.
And Joan Armene did not give Chelsea's defensive players a chance to react, and directly pushed the football to Pellegrini in the frontcourt. Pellegrini seemed to sense that Jorginho was on the other side.
He rushed over quickly, so he didn't stop the ball at all, but spread his legs and missed the football!
The football quickly rolled past him and the rushing Jorginho, and rolled to the edge of Chelsea's penalty area.
Haaland attracted Chelsea center back Christensen out. With his back turned, he did not stop the ball. Instead, he moved his heel and moved the ball into Chelsea's penalty area.
Christensen was shocked and immediately stretched his legs sideways, but still did not touch the football!
The football rolled quickly into Chelsea's penalty area!
In the horrified eyes of Chelsea fans, Lautaro quickly inserted into the ribs of Chelsea's penalty area and caught up with the football. Chelsea center back Zouma was left behind by Lautaro. Lautaro
The only thing in front of me is Chelsea goalkeeper Qian Duoduo.
All Chelsea fans at the scene placed their hopes on Donnarumma.
With a bang, Lautaro caught up with the football and didn't give Donnarumma a chance to react. He immediately shot with a kick.
The blast from such a close range was like a bullet that flew past Donnarumma, who was jumping from the side, and then slammed into the Chelsea goal!
The ball went in, and AC Milan broke through Chelsea's goal in the 21st minute of the first half and took the lead.
Seeing this, the scene was completely silent.
All Chelsea fans did not expect that the game would progress like this, nor did they expect that their team would concede the goal like this. They could not accept it. The fans immediately roared crazily on the sidelines, motivating
Chelsea's players are working hard and at the same time calling on Lampard to make changes quickly!
Chelsea cannot lose this game, this is their home court.
At this time, Lampard was also arrogant on the sidelines, commanding the Chelsea players, but after the game restarted, the situation did not improve much. Chelsea was still struggling very hard, and the players were working very hard.
They were also very positive, and they all showed good condition. However, they were suppressed by the high-position pressure of AC Milan people, which made them unable to exert their strength!
Moreover, during the counterattack, their offensive line was targeted many times, almost making their counterattack impossible.
This made the Chelsea fans present very disappointed.
Just when Chelsea had no way to defeat AC Milan, AC Milan had already thought of a way to deal with them, and even knew their counterattack line very well. They knew how well Tong Yi knew their Chelsea side.
, and Chelsea don’t seem to know AC Milan very well!
This is completely the difference in strength between the two head coaches!
Now some Chelsea fans clearly know why so many media reporters are not optimistic about Chelsea before the game. Lampard may be good as a young coach. But he is not a famous coach yet, and he is just on this road.
There is still a long way to go before we get started. Now we are competing against a world-class head coach like Tong Yi. There is really a lot missing!
This game is a very good example.
At this time, AC Milan was still pressing like crazy at a high position. Chelsea's players were very active, but they were still being pressed hard and even had problems controlling the ball.
Lampard has been actively adjusting, but the current situation is still not good. Chelsea is still very passive, but Chelsea's long shot just now is still very threatening, but it is a pity that Kovac
Qi's long shot was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper Courtois!
Seeing this, Chelsea fans don’t know what to say?
Why did Thibaut Courtois pounce on the football, but you, Donnarumma, couldn't? At this time, many people regret why the team sent Courtois away and got a lot of money? This
It's completely unnecessary and weakens your own strength!
Now Chelsea fans still haven't given up, shouting crazily and cheering for their players.
Chelsea's players did not give up, they felt they had a chance.
The Chelsea people played very actively and desperately, but the results were still not ideal.
After the start of the second half, AC Milan's high pressure did not weaken at all, but became stronger. AC Milan's running became more and more active, which made Chelsea's players feel greater pressure.
Seeing this, Tong Yi felt that if nothing else happened, AC Milan would really win this game.
Got it.
There is indeed a gap between Chelsea and AC Milan.
This season, Chelsea should not be able to go further in the UEFA Champions League. But even so, Tong Yi is frequently reminding AC Milan players not to underestimate Chelsea people, but to still be actively involved, and
Attack ferociously.
AC Milan must win this game.
With a bang, at this moment, midfielder Joan Armene made a high-speed sliding tackle and directly cut off the football at Barkley's feet. The football quickly rolled to the feet of Goretzka in front, and Goretzka immediately
Passed the football to Pellegrini in front.
Pellegrini did not stop the ball and passed the football to the wing immediately.
Then he immediately turned around and thrust forward quickly.
All the Chelsea fans at the scene became nervous. Damn AC Milan's attack came again, which made them a little crazy. At the same time, they were also very worried. They roared loudly to cheer for the players.
.
James on the wing caught up with the football and immediately moved forward quickly with the ball, heading towards the baseline.
Chelsea's defensive players did not rush forward rashly, but blocked the inside line to prevent James from cutting inside. At the same time, they also strictly guarded against James' cross and prevented James from sending shells into the penalty area and at the feet of the AC Milan forward.
At this moment, after James on the wing continuously changed directions and tried to break through without success, he suddenly swiped the ball diagonally and quickly swept the football towards the edge of Chelsea's penalty area.
Chelsea fans were shocked and roared excitedly, calling for defense.
Then Chelsea's defensive players immediately rushed towards Pellegrini who was running towards the football. Everyone was guarding Pellegrini's passing and long-range shots, and they didn't give the AC Milan people anything at all.
Opportunity.
However, Pellegrini had no intention of touching the ball at this time and directly missed the ball.
All the Chelsea players at the scene were shocked and turned around and fell towards the football!
But by this time it's too late.
Goretzka, who rushed up quickly, almost didn't adjust. He rushed to the football and hit the football hard with one kick. The football flew close to the turf and shot out quickly!
Because of the rain, the speed of the football on the turf was very fast, faster than usual. Therefore, Chelsea's defensive players were a little slow in reacting, and the football shot quickly towards the lower right corner of the goal.
The ball was very fast, and Donnarumma in front of the goal reacted quickly and dived sideways immediately.
It's a pity that his straight outstretched arm did not touch the football at all. The football flew past the tip of his finger and then rolled into the Chelsea goal while grazing the inside of the post.
Two to zero, AC Milan completely sealed the victory of this game.
