After a week of research, it was absolutely impossible for Su Yun to let Leverkusen escape from his grasp.
During this week, apart from training the team, eating, going to the toilet and sleeping, Su Yun spent the rest of his time studying Leverkusen. Leverkusen had no way to escape.
Chelsea led Leverkusen 2-0 in the first half.
Top Muller also made adjustments in the second half. In the second half, he replaced Berbatov, who performed well in the last game. He hoped to let Berbatov help Leverkusen organize the frontcourt attack.
Because facing the defense in the middle, Leverkusen had no choice.
Topmueller wants to use Berbatov's skills.
It's a pity that Berbatov no longer has the suddenness for Su Yun.
Although Berbatov is very talented, he is still young after all.
Su Yun has many ways to deal with him.
What's the point of having Berbatov on the field?
Desailly and Terry will not let Berbatov fight. After all, they are a very strong defender combination. They just let Berbatov make a surprise attack last time.
Su Yun has the entire Leverkusen under his radar.
Su Yun analyzed every Leverkusen player.
Can Leverkusen still struggle?
cut.
And Lucio really cares about eating and not fighting. In the first half, one of his attempts was intercepted, allowing Chelsea to counterattack. But in the second half, Lucio, who had been honest for a while, couldn't bear it anymore.
Seeing that the frontcourt was always unable to break down Chelsea's defense, Lucio was too anxious.
He was not calm again.
In the 71st minute of the second half, Lucio stepped in again. He wanted to give Chelsea a surprise attack, so he got the ball and went straight into the middle.
Unfortunately, this time it was even more of a tragedy.
This time it was intercepted directly by Lampard in midfield.
Playing on the counterattack is Chelsea's strength.
After Lampard stole the ball, he immediately launched a counterattack. He hit the space left by Lucio.
Eto'o, who showed great performance in this game, easily scored twice.
The score was fixed at three to zero.
Chelsea won their first victory in the Champions League group of death.
Su Yun also won his first victory in the second round of the group stage.
After the end of this round, the situation of this group has changed dramatically. Juventus defeated Deportivo La Coruna again in this round, winning four consecutive games and scoring 12 points.
Juventus secured a qualifying spot.
They have nothing to ask for in this group. Because with twelve points, their place is guaranteed.
Deportivo has become a team that everyone bullies. It only accumulated one point in four rounds. No one expected it before the season.
Leverkusen has six points and Chelsea has four points.
Of course, even now, except for Juventus, the other three teams have the possibility of appearing.
After the game, Su Yun was very happy. Facing reporter Su Yun, he said: "I said that if we win three consecutive games, we still have a chance to appear. Now is the first victory, and I believe we will continue to win in the future."
…………
The victory in the Champions League made Su Yun breathe a long sigh of relief.
It's not easy.
Chelsea players are also delighted.
An expert in civil war, an outsider in foreign war.
This kind of reputation makes people very uncomfortable. The hearts of Chelsea players are getting bigger and bigger now.
Chelsea now have a huge lead in the Premier League.
With a huge advantage in the Premier League, Chelsea players are not willing to hear the media commenting on Chelsea like this. Therefore, they also want to prove themselves in the Champions League.
Now that they have defeated Leverkusen, Chelsea's situation in the group of death will immediately become much more favorable.
Four points.
There is only two points behind Leverkusen.
There are still two rounds left. It’s not certain who will show up.
This is the group of death in the Champions League.
You looked like you were failing just a moment ago.
But the outcome of one game can drastically change the situation in the group of death.
Just like a moment ago, there was no possibility for Chelsea. But after winning this game, Chelsea's hopes have greatly increased.
Su Yun could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Chelsea players who were excited to return to the Premier League were hit hard.
On March 2, the 28th round of the Premier League begins.
Chelsea is away to Charlton.
Charlton are 14th in the Premier League.
According to Su Yun's theory, a team like Charlton is a team that must be defeated. But maybe the team was too excited in the Champions League. It was even unable to win against an opponent like Charlton.
Instead, Charlton took advantage of two free kicks and scored two goals.
Charlton has only scored 27 goals in total so far. Unexpectedly, he scored two goals in the game against Chelsea.
But Chelsea only scored a face-saving goal from a corner kick at the last minute when Panucci scored.
Lost to Charlton 1-2.
Arsenal, who kicked off at the same time, were chasing after him.
In the twenty-eighth round of the Premier League, Arsenal faced Derby County at home.
Derby County are currently second from bottom in the Premier League.
Basically, a relegation spot has been determined. They are ten points away from the 17th place in the Premier League. Unless God is merciful, relegation is inevitable.
Facing such an opponent, Arsenal showed no mercy. Of course, Wenger's Arsenal has always been very stable against weak teams. Arsenal defeated Derby County 1-0 with Pires' goal.
And Arsenal had a game before that.
That is the twenty-seventh round of the Premier League.
Chelsea's twenty-seventh round of the Premier League will be postponed. But Arsenal's twenty-seventh round will be played as usual.
That is on February 23rd.
In that game, Arsenal's performance was also outstanding. Arsenal easily defeated Fulham 4-0 with the goals of Lauren, Vieira and Henry's brace.
After a wave of two consecutive wins, Arsenal has caught up with six points. Arsenal is still nine points behind Chelsea with one more game. It has become single digits.
When nine points were left, the Arsenal media was very high-profile.
They all believe that Arsenal has a chance to overtake Chelsea.
Adams even issued a challenge to Chelsea.
"During the 1997-98 season, we were 12 points behind in February. But with our hard work, we overturned our opponents and won the Premier League title. Now Chelsea seems to have a big lead, but we are confident that we can reverse them.
We will fight to the end."
Su Yun didn't answer.
Not afraid.
Not nervous either.
But Su Yun didn't care at all what Adams said.
There are only ten rounds left in the Premier League. A nine-point lead is a very safe advantage for Su Yun. Moreover, Chelsea still have one game in hand.
As long as they win in the make-up game, the gap will still be twelve points.
Su Yun was not afraid of Adams's letter of challenge at all.
Su Yun is no longer the young boy he was in the past two seasons. At that time, if he had encountered a team that was chasing after him like Arsenal this season, Su Yun might have panicked.
However, he failed to win the Premier League title twice, which made Su Yun's heart become steel.
Su Yun wanted to tell Adams with his results and put an end to this delusion as soon as possible.
Of course Arsenal players wouldn't think that way.
March 5th, the twenty-ninth round of the Premier League.
After the score difference became a number again, Arsenal players were very excited. In the away game, they defeated Newcastle United 2-0 with the goals of Bergkamp and Campbell.
After this game, Arsenal was only six points behind Chelsea with two games in hand.
Arsenal are even more arrogant.
Six points is not a big difference anymore.
They kept putting pressure on Chelsea.
Even Wenger accepted a reporter's question after the game and said: "The Premier League champion? Who can know? No one knows until the end of this season."
This puts all the pressure on Chelsea.
Just the day after the Arsenal game, Chelsea will play the 29th round of the Premier League.
Chelsea plays Fulham at home.
The game did not go very smoothly. Fulham took the lead in scoring just seven minutes into the game.
Chelsea fans were stunned.
They are really scared.
Is it really not possible?
But Su Yun was not anxious at all.
This game cannot be lost. This is Su Yun's belief. Su Yun believes in his players. After the failure of the Premier League championship last season, he still has the honor of winning the five crowns.
Su Yun believes that the current Chelsea players will have no problems.
Sure enough, Fulham's goal was just an accident.
Soon Chelsea's counterattack began. Gudjohnsen, Bobosky, Lampard. They scored goals for Chelsea one after another. In the end, Hasselbaink was the icing on the cake.
In the end, Chelsea easily defeated Fulham 4-1 at home.
Of course this is still the beginning.
On March 10th, the 27th round of make-up matches in the Premier League began.
Chelsea faced Tottenham Hotspur at home. During this game, Su Yun's orders to his players were simple.
victory.
It was because of the single-digit difference that Arsenal thought it was possible. Su Yun wanted to use this make-up game to completely stop Arsenal from thinking about it.
Chelsea players thought the same way.
Their performance in the game was extremely outstanding.
Especially in this game, Hasselbaink went crazy. He scored an astonishing four goals against Tottenham Hotspur. This was the first time in Hasselbaink's career.
It can be said that Chelsea completely destroyed the London team Tottenham.
It gave Tottenham a wound that will never be forgotten.
Six to zero.
In addition to Hasselbaink's four goals, there were also goals from Zola and Grenjaer.
Amazing score.
In the end, Tottenham coach Hoddle left the field and returned to the dressing room before the game was over.
Five days ago, Arsenal was only six points behind Chelsea, but Chelsea also relied on two consecutive victories to widen the gap to 12 points again.
Su Yun was very proud.
Smiling proudly.
Facing reporters, he did not hide his excitement: "Adams wants to reverse? I admire his imagination so much. But I still want to tell coach Wenger and Adams that it would be better for everyone to abandon unrealistic thoughts early.
"
"There won't be any surprises for the Premier League champions."
