Today is the fifth update.

The excitement of returning to the top of the standings will bring some mental stimulation to Arsenal, allowing them to go to Stamford Bridge with a better mental outlook and mental state, but this will not effectively improve the physical energy consumption of their main lineup in the near future.

April 13, evening.

Stamford Bridge was full, and Chelsea fans cheered for Chelsea in the stands with a sad state.

They are afraid of a result: Chelsea's double-line crash at the end of the season!

Such an outstanding performance in the league, he may become the team with the highest points in the Premier League ever. However, he did not expect that Arsenal not only created a 62-game league unbeaten this season, but also played alongside Chelsea in the standings, pushing Chelsea in the second place with a goal difference.

Chelsea have a lot of goals, but relying on goals, but defense. They have lost nearly 20 goals less than Arsenal. However, Arsenal's strong offensive firepower this season has made even if he conceded more goals, he can lead Chelsea and even major European teams, and he has gained a goal difference advantage of three.

In the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Arsenal temporarily led Chelsea with a total score of 3:2. Blues fans are worried that if the expected victory is not achieved in this game, then Chelsea will likely have only one League Cup champion this season to comfort.

After all, they were eliminated in the FA Cup early.

In the player channel, the Chelsea players seemed to have a sense of a mourning battle, while Arsenal came to Stamford Bridge with his sharp edge.

Although Wenger claimed before the game that Arsenal was playing in the best condition, in fact, he understood that Chelsea's physical condition would be better than Arsenal.

Mourinho appeared coldly on the stadium. The young coach probably didn't expect that his first season in England would become like this. It was obvious that Chelsea's best record in history has been created in the league, and it may be that it was the best record in the Premier League except Arsenal in the same period, but Chelsea is now second in the standings, not first.

No matter what, this game cannot be lost!

Arsenal exchanged for the results of overtaking Chelsea in the league at the cost of the physical fitness of the main players. If Chelsea regained their strength to face the second round of the Champions League knockout stage, it would not be stronger than Arsenal, then Mourinho would probably become a laughing stock.

"The exciting second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals is about to begin. Arsenal leads Chelsea with a total score of 3:2. Today's game at Stamford Bridge should be Chelsea's back-to-back match, but a week has passed. The situation between Chelsea and Arsenal has undergone strong changes. A week ago, the Premier League leader was Chelsea, and a week later, the Premier League leader became Arsenal. This game may be the watershed between Chelsea and Arsenal's double-line competition!

Unlike the previous lineup, Mourinho made two personnel changes in today's lineup, that is, the right back replaced Glen Johnson with stronger assist ability, and Thiago returned to the midfield. Obviously, Chelsea needs to score!

Chelsea 433.

Goalkeeper: Cech.

Defenders: Glenn Johnson, Terry, Carvalho Galas.

Midfielder: Marklele, Thiago, Lampard.

Forward: Duff Drogba, Joe Cole.

Arsenal 41.

Goalkeeper: Lyman.

Defenders: Lauren, Toure, Sendross, Ashley Cole.

Midfielder: Lungberg, Vieira Qin Xiong, Silva Pire.

Forward: Henry.

Okay, the game begins soon. Chelsea kicks off first!"

From the beginning of the game, Chelsea looked more proactive than the previous game, with their midfield smoother than the previous game, and their offensive organization running quickly.

Because Thiago did not play in the last game, this midfielder with both offense and defense is Chelsea's main player this season. He was absent from the last game due to a minor injury. After returning to the lineup today, Lampard was even more liberated and at the same time ensured that Chelsea's midfielder had stronger control.

Arsenal looks more passive, Qin Xiong is in a low position, and he is actively participating in the defense.

Through his observation and game feeling, the reason why Chelsea seems to be able to make the offense faster and smoother is not because Chelsea has had too much qualitative change, but because Arsenal's pace has slowed down!

Due to fatigue accumulation, his physical condition is not as good as the opponent. In the league four days ago, Arsenal had consumed, Chelsea's main players were not consumed, and today was playing at Stamford Bridge.

Between one's rise and the other's decline, Arsenal's overall disadvantage on the field is more obvious.

Wenger couldn't help frowning on the sidelines. The difference in physical fitness between the two sides was more serious than he thought.

Chelsea is obviously faster than Arsenal.

The side with poor physical condition will have a longer time to adapt to the atmosphere of the game and enter the state.

It is obvious that when teammates are not at the same pace, it is even more difficult for high-demand teams to cooperate.

Qin Xiong tried hard to control the rhythm of the game. He could not interact with his teammates in dangerous areas, otherwise he would be fatal if he lost the ball and was hit by a fast break.

However, in the midfield and frontcourt area, Chelsea players surrounded and fought back like wolves and tigers and had a huge impact, which made his organizational work extremely difficult.

In the 15th minute of the game, Arsenal did not even make a decent attack.

Chelsea's physical strength is fully reflected.

Their offense and defense are in a unified and tacit understanding, just like a tide, rushing to the front court when attacking and retreating to the half when defense, with a very strong sense of rhythm.

Lampard's performance today was much better than the previous game, and his efficiency in passing the ball in the middle of the midfield and back-spinning were very high.

In the 19th minute of the game, the offense continued to attack Chelsea, which used a simple routine to attack the Arsenal defense area, and once again sent a threatening ball through Joe Cole's 45-degree cross from the left.

The cross ball flew rapidly to the back point in the penalty area.

Sendros was seized by Drogba in the retreat. Warcraft's performance in the second half of the season was more eye-catching than in the first half of the season, which represented his progress. This time, he jumped high and headed the ball, as if he smashed the ball with his head, and the football flew straight to the dead corner of the upper right corner of the goal!

Lehman flew to the extreme but was unable to turn the world back!

"Chelsea scored first, Joe Cole assisted Drogba to score a header! Chelsea showed strong combat effectiveness at home! Campbell's absence had a great impact on Arsenal. If it were Campbell, this goal would never make Drogba so easy. Sendros has not yet gotten rid of the nightmare brought to him by Drogba!"

It is undeniable that after the end of the last round, the offensive and defensive duel of Sendros being crushed by Drogba was deliberately amplified by the media, which will have a great impact on the psychological state of young players!
Chapter completed!
