Football: Banned for life, forced to travel to Europe

Chapter 799 I am alone enough

The Barcelona fans are very happy. I don't know if they were instigated by the media. In the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea fought bayonets!

Pochettino turned into Conte and formed a 343 formation. This is not the key point. Tottenham have played three defenders many times this season.

The main reason is that Pochettino used the same tactics as Conte, and the offense was handed over to Sun Xingmin, who switched to playing left wing back, and the three forwards Ali, Kane and Eriksson.

The rest of the players all defended, and it was easily half-court.

The difference from Conte is that Pochettino played hard in this game and raised the intensity of the game very high. The Tottenham players are very tough, even dirty, and no one will back down even if the goal is [-]-[-]. If you can't kick the ball, you have to greet the ankles of Chelsea players.

This is in the Premier League, as long as the player is not stupid and goes for the ball, even if someone is kicked, the referee will generally not give the card.

Of course, it is not that Pochettino wants to abolish Chelsea players so that they cannot play in the Champions League semi-finals.

Pochettino is a famous Spaniard. He has been with the Spaniard for ten years as a player and a coach. The Spaniard and Barcelona are rivals in the same city. Pochettino can't help Barcelona clear their opponents.

Tottenham played so proactively for the team themselves, they need a champion too much.

Tottenham Hotspur was founded in 1882, 130 years ago, but their honor room is empty.

There are only two top league titles, two UEFA Cup titles and a European Cup Winners' Cup title, oh yes, eight FA Cup titles and four League Cup titles.

Add up to seventeen championships, not as many as Manchester United's top league championship...

Tottenham's most recent championship dates back to the League Cup championship in the 07-08 season, without a championship for ten years!

Whether it is the fans, the management or the players, they are all too eager for a championship. Now it seems that the FA Cup is the closest, and they must work hard.

This disrupted Mourinho's deployment.

Mourinho did not let Wish start as the outside world predicted, but put several main players on the bench.

This is one of the ways he encourages players. The semi-finals of the FA Cup are all thanks to the substitute players. He does not want to deprive the substitute players of the opportunity to play immediately.

In Mourinho's view, even as a substitute player, his strength is similar to that of Tottenham. If he plays some games, even if he falls behind, he will not be too far behind.

As a result, no one expected Tottenham to be so tough, and Chelsea was completely suppressed in the first half of the game.

The score on the big screen was 0 to 2, and Tottenham Hotspur, who drew the visiting team, took the lead.

It was Dele Alli who scored twice in the game, one of which was controversial.

At that time, Chelsea's Inle cut off Harry Kane's through pass and passed it to Brozovic. The Croatian midfielder was just about to organize an attack, but he was knocked over by Ali from the side, and then Ali directly dribbled the ball back to counterattack. Breaking through the goal guarded by Begovic, helping Tottenham Hotspur open the scoring.

Of course, the Chelsea players were not happy. They complained to the referee Mike Dean about Ali's foul, but Mike Dean turned a deaf ear to it and just shook his finger, indicating that this is the Premier League...

This conceded goal caused Chelsea's morale to plummet. Before the end of the first half, Alli took advantage of a corner kick to pick up a goal in the chaos, expanding Tottenham's lead.

Mourinho is about to give up. He doesn't care about the FA Cup championship. He doesn't have the obsession of the older generation of England fans.

Before the establishment of the Premier League, many old fans believed that the FA Cup championship was more important than the League One championship.

This situation disappeared immediately after the establishment of the Premier League, mainly because the cost of TV broadcasting was too different.

The cost of TV broadcasting in the Premier League is tens of millions, and the FA Cup is worth a few million. Even a fool knows how to choose...

And the Tottenham players are obviously too ruthless today, and Mourinho is afraid that the main players will be injured.

But at this moment, Wishing, who was sitting behind Mourinho, poked his head over and startled Mourinho.

"What are you going to do?"

"Relax, boss." Wishing whispered, "How about replacing me in the second half?"

"why?"

Mourinho was puzzled. He had already negotiated with Wishing. Whether he will play in the FA Cup or win the championship is up to him. Why did Wishing suddenly change his mind?

Wishing and pointing to Ali who was celebrating the goal not far away, Mourinho looked up and immediately understood - Ali was looking towards the Chelsea bench, with his thumb upside down, and a throat-cutting movement... …

Mike Dean also gave Ali a yellow card for his action.

Mourinho is happy, Ali is making a big death, who is not good for you to provoke, but you want to provoke and make a wish...

But Mourinho is still a little hesitant. It is not a big problem to switch to Wishing. With Wishing's physical fitness, even if he conflicts with Tottenham players, he will take advantage.

Mourinho is afraid that replacing the main players such as Fabregas and Salah will hurt them. Tottenham players are crazy today.

The wish saw through Mourinho's mind, "Boss, I can go up by myself, and let the others continue to rest."

"you sure?"

"Definitely and definitely." Wishing shook the non-existent hair curtain, "I am enough to deal with Tottenham."

At this moment, Mike Dean blew the whistle for the end of the first half. The Chelsea players were somewhat lonely. They also knew that their performance today was not good, but they couldn't adjust for the time being.

This is also human nature. Everyone is a professional player, and they are afraid of getting hurt, and they are not ready to fight the bayonet when they come up. None of the top players can stand up...

Tottenham's locker room was naturally filled with jubilation, Pochettino slapped his hands, "Boys, your performance in the first half was so f*cking good, I am so proud of you! Continue to play like this in the second half, Chelsea's players have already been beaten. You are scared!"

Ali jumped on the chair. "Hey, guys! Today is our revenge fight. Even if the bull is on the field, we can win the game. Give them some color!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The Tottenham players jumped to their feet and yelled after Dele Alli's flailing arms. They had reason to be happy. If they won this game, they would become the only team to beat Chelsea this season. This is a great honor for the team.

On the other side, Mourinho first announced the decision to make substitutions in the second half, wishing to replace Mitrovic, Nainggolan replaced Inle, and Kanter replaced Erneny.

Then Mourinho also slapped his hands, "I am very dissatisfied with your performance, not because you are behind, but because you are afraid."

"I want you to remember that we are Chelsea and we will never be afraid of anyone!"

After all, Mourinho pointed and made a wish, "Give the ball to Toro in the second half, and he will show you what a real Chelsea player is!"
