Chapter 1079 Final Four!

In the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Real Madrid and Ajax played very difficult games, while Real Madrid's old rival Barcelona played even more difficult!

Barcelona's opponent is their old enemy Chelsea.Since the Stamford Bridge tragedy, the two clubs have been on fire and water, and their relationship has been extremely bad.

Both teams are not doing well in the league at the moment.

Barcelona ranks third in the league, they are behind Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, and several teams such as Sevilla behind them are also catching up closely, Barcelona's lead is not big.If they relax a little bit, they are likely to be caught up by the team behind them and lose their Champions League seat.This is something that Barcelona absolutely does not allow!
Therefore, in the league some time ago, Barcelona fought with all their strength, striving to get three points in every game.

In this way, Barcelona's physical strength was affected in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Chelsea's recent state is also very poor. They are now only ranked sixth in the league, and they have the same points as No.7 Everton, only leading by goal difference.There are now internal reports that Abramovich has lost patience with Conte and is planning to fire Conte after the end of the season.

In this way, Conte's goal is very clear-do his best in the league and strive for the Champions League!
Anyway, next season has nothing to do with me, so whether I can get a place in the European competition next season is definitely not as important as competing for this season's Champions League.

Therefore, in the two Champions League games, Chelsea played Conte's best "mad dog play". They faced the mighty Barcelona, ​​so fearless, they bombarded Barcelona indiscriminately, running without hesitation, playing against Barcelona. attack!
In these two games, both Chelsea and Barcelona scored big points.A game of 2 to 2 and a game of 4 to 3 made many neutral fans hooked.

Chelsea's striker combination Lukaku and Morata played well and contributed many goals to the team.In the end, Chelsea eliminated the powerful Barcelona with a total score of 6 to 5, and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League!
After this game, Messi's tears made many Barcelona fans extremely sad.Their beloved team has once again fallen on the way to the Champions League.

So far, the Champions League semi-finals have all been produced!
Manchester United and Chelsea from the Premier League, La Liga giants Real Madrid, Bundesliga overlord Bayern.

These four teams represent the top combat power in Europe this season. In the semi-finals of the Champions League, no matter which two teams meet, it will be a match of the century!
A few days later, the UEFA semi-final draw was held in Nyon.

UEFA has officially announced that from next season, UEFA's quarter-finals will be divided into upper and lower halves, and the UEFA Champions League semi-final draw will be cancelled.In other words, this is the last semi-final draw of the UEFA Champions League.

Ahead of the draw, reporters interviewed the head coaches of their respective teams.

Conte said firmly: "Chelsea has only one champion in the Champions League to compete for this season, and we will definitely go all out! The other three teams are very strong, and it is difficult to deal with anyone!"

Heynckes seemed very calm, but from his eyes, he could still see the old man's desire for this championship: "This is the last time I will compete for the Champions League title before I retire, and I hope to use a champion Trophy to put a perfect end to my career. If we had to choose an opponent, I might prefer to meet Chelsea, their style of play is somewhat similar to Bayern, and I would prefer to play against them."

Mourinho is still arrogant: "It doesn't matter who you meet, anyway, the final Champions League must be ours!"

And Kintag is also very confident: "Our goal is to win the Champions League three consecutive times. No matter who is drawn, the final victory will definitely be Manchester United!"

The head coaches of the four teams are all confident and looking forward to the upcoming semi-finals of the Champions League.In this case, the results of the draw for the semi-finals were finally announced.

Chelsea vs Real Madrid!

Manchester United vs Bayern!
The result of this match surprised many people, but it was also within everyone's expectations.After all, there are only four teams in total, and it's just a few simple possibilities for anyone to play against whom.

After the lottery results came out, the reporters immediately interviewed the head coaches of the four teams to hear their opinions.

When Conte learned that he was in a group with Real Madrid, he frowned: "This result is the last thing I want to see! Compared with Real Madrid, I would rather meet the more familiar seven-time champion Manchester United. To be honest, Chelsea It is extremely difficult to advance to the Champions League final, our strength on paper and the value of our players are not as good as Real Madrid, I have to admit this. But we are the iron-blooded blue team, facing the mighty Real Madrid, we will never admit defeat!"

A reporter in the back row muttered in a low voice: "Iron-Blooded Blues is the term reserved for Chelsea by the current Real Madrid coach..."

When Mourinho was interviewed, he said the same words as Conte: "This result is the last thing I want to see. I always feel uncomfortable playing against Chelsea in blue. .If possible, I really hope that I will never meet Chelsea on the court. But since I met, there is no way. Although I have been in love, but now I am the coach of Real Madrid, I will definitely try my best to win, no Take any personal feelings. If I end up knocking out Chelsea, I'll feel bad for Chelsea too."

A reporter suddenly asked: "There are rumors that Conte will leave Chelsea this season. If Abramovich invites you to go back, will you agree?"

Hearing this, Mourinho's face suddenly darkened, and he said firmly: "I am the coach of Real Madrid now, and I am not interested in answering your question!"

Heynckes, who was drawn by Manchester United, still had a calm expression, but from his tone, he seemed a little excited: "At the last moment of his coaching career, he can play against the best young coach in international football today. , I am very happy. There is no doubt that Kintag and his Manchester United team are the hottest team in Europe now. I believe that these two rounds of competition will be very exciting. Well deserved."

A reporter suddenly asked: "Will you start Rooney in the Champions League?"

Heynckes was taken aback, he paused for a moment, and then replied very cautiously: "It's hard to say, after all, the temporary situation of each game is different, and which player to appear on the field depends on his state at the time. Not only Rooney, but others The same is true for players, so I can't answer this question for you. But I'm sure, as long as Rooney can have a good state, then I will definitely give him a chance to play!"
