At this critical moment, being widened by Tottenham is undoubtedly an extremely huge psychological blow for Chelsea players. If Chelsea players were one point behind Tottenham before, Chelsea players could comfort themselves in their hearts and say that as long as they seized one opportunity, they could reverse their unfavorable situation in the league standings, then when Tottenham widened the gap in the points to three points, no matter how indestructible the nerves of these Chelsea players are, they will feel a little desperate.

Although the league will end in a full twelve rounds, the current score difference between the two teams is only one game. Chelsea has enough time and room to recover the disadvantage, but the result of a draw at home by Manchester City has still dealt a serious blow to the morale of Chelsea players!

The players' morale was directly reflected in Chelsea's next game. In the 27th round of the UK game a week later, the Blues, who were all the main players, faced the Everton team led by Moyes, and tried their best to rely on Ibrahimovic's direct free kick to score in the injury time to barely win this tough Toffee at Goodison Park Stadium. Finally, it did not give Tottenham a chance to further expand its lead.

On the other hand, the news of Chelsea capsizing on Manchester City's body has been extremely impressive. In the game with Charlton on February 12, Tottenham, who was away from the Valley Stadium, easily tied the opponent in the same city. Klose and Ronaldo's goals successfully helped Tottenham take away a victory from the away game!

After defeating Charlton with two away goals, the British League entered a short period of rest, and the war would not rekindle until half a month later. Therefore, the British team, who had fought for most of the season, finally got a rare opportunity to breathe. While adjusting their goals set at the beginning of the season according to the current situation, they seized the time to recover almost exhausted physical fitness in order to sprint towards the newly set season goal!

However, although the league will temporarily be on hold for half a month, this does not mean that the British teams really have nothing to do. Because the "concerned" FA Cup and League Cup games have been arranged for them during this period!

Especially those teams that had previously tied in the fourth round of the FA Cup (Note: Although the FA Cup implements a single-game elimination system, once the two sides tied before the semi-finals, they need to replay the game on a date), they can be said to be the most smug among all British clubs. Because when other teams enjoy a rare rest time or just need to deal with the schedule of one match a week, they have to face the schedule of the weekly double matches!

In addition, Chelsea and Liverpool, two teams that reached the League Cup final this season, are also facing a similar situation. From a certain perspective, their situation is even more gripping than those teams that need to participate in the FA Cup rematch. Because the date of the League Cup final set by the FA actually coincides with the 28th round of the League! This means,

In contrast, Tottenham's schedule during this period seems much easier. With the FA Cup as a training ground for young players and substitutes and having already been eliminated from the League Cup, Tottenham players can fully accumulate their strength during this period and prepare for the 8th final of the Champions League with Real Madrid!

Of course, before dealing with Real Madrid, Tottenham Hotspurs still needs to solve their opponents in the fifth round of the FA Cup, Nottingham Forest, which once dominated the English and European football worlds!

Although George is not very concerned about the FA Cup and only uses it as a place to keep substitutes in shape to exercise their abilities, for substitutes, especially those young players with extremely enterprising spirit, this is obviously the best stage to show their personal abilities and football talents!

For Nottingham Forest, although this club once reached its peak during the coaching period of famous coach Brian Clough and even stood on the podium of the European Champions League twice, the glory of Forest team has been gone forever after the arrival of the British era. After losing the upgrade playoffs last season, Nottingham Forest performed poorly in the renamed English Championship this season and is likely to be relegated to the English League One after the end of the season.

In the situation of the league, Nottingham Forest may naturally invest too much in the FA Cup - if the FA Cup is consumed too much, the team will eventually be relegated from the Championship, then the fun will be really big.

In this way, in this game held on February 2o, Nottingham Forest, who was away from White Hart Lane, despite desperate resistance on the court and even used the English Championship team's iconic barbaric defense and foul tactics, it still failed to stop Tottenham Hotspur from advancing to the FA Cup quarterfinals. Vermullen scored a corner kick header from Dietta in the 70th minute of the game, helping Tottenham Forest successfully defeated Nottingham Forest at home!

Tottenham fans only celebrated the result of the team's small victory over Nottingham Forest at home. After all, it is not uncommon for Tottenham to win a team from the English Championship. Even if Tottenham sent a full substitute in this game, even if Tottenham's opponent in this game is the once famous Nottingham Forest!

Of course, if Tottenham Tottenham ultimately loses to Nottingham Forest in this FA Cup game, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble after the game, and Tottenham fans will feel extremely disappointed.

The day after the match with Nottingham Forest, the entire Tottenham team flew to Madrid, Spain, preparing for the Champions League match with Real Madrid, which was hailed as the "Galaxy Battleship" by the media and fans!

In the eyes of fans and media, this game at the Bernabeu Stadium is undoubtedly an extremely difficult challenge for Tottenham. You should know that although Tottenham was the British runner-up last season and had a very outstanding performance in the Champions League group stage this season, Tottenham's strength still seems to be a bit inconvenient for a strong team like Real Madrid. This is a common view of European sports media and professionals before the start of the game. Only a few Tottenham's hardcore supporters, such as Andy Gray and Martin Taylor, believe that Tottenham has the possibility of eliminating Real Madrid!

Because Tottenham will face it, it was rated as the "greatest club of the 2O century" by FIFA and won the most championships in the Champions League. It has seven top football superstars including Ronaldo, Raul, Robert Carlos, and the Spanish-class giant Real Madrid!
