Chapter 372: The first round with zero letters

Before the start of the Champions League quarter-finals, the Bundesliga found out that something big or small had happened. The head coach of the Hornets, Uncle Zha, took the initiative to announce that he would leave Dortmund after the end of this season.

In the Bundesliga just over the weekend, the Hornet lost 0:2 away to Borussia Borussia, completely losing the chance to qualify for the Champions League next season.

So after the discussion between Uncle Zha and Dortmund's management, it was basically a peaceful breakup.

Klopp is the head coach who has risen to fame in Europe in recent years. He is leaving Dortmund, which will naturally attract the attention of many teams, especially those teams that may need to change coaches.

Among the more famous teams in Europe at present, the ones that have clearly needed to change their coaches are basically Paris.

Although the Ligue 1 championship of Paris this season is stable, the result of being eliminated in the top 16 of the Champions League is the worst result of Paris after the Qatar consortium took over, so the French coach Laurent Blanc has already Definitely pack up and leave after the season.

Paris is looking for coaches everywhere, and Rodgers, Stevens and Uncle Zha are basically within their scope of investigation.

The rich teams are not like other ordinary teams. The head coach can leave, and an assistant or youth team coach can be promoted at will. Just use it for a while.

The position of the head coach of a wealthy team is basically a carrot and a hole. If the carrot here is pulled out, it is likely to need to be pulled from other places to fill the hole.

Now Uncle Zha's big carrot is temporarily vacant, and other teams that may be vacant are paying attention to him.

On April 15th, the Champions League quarter-final match day came, and the Chelsea team came to Liverpool.

This time the Chelsea team is very confident, and they all believe that they will definitely be able to eliminate Liverpool.

Chelsea captain Terry said before the game: "The last two times we met Liverpool in the Champions League, we eliminated each other, and this time will be no exception."

The previous four times Liverpool and Chelsea played in the Champions League knockout match, Liverpool won twice in 2004/05 and 2006/07, Chelsea won twice in 07/08 and 08/09, so it is true that Chelsea has won the last two .

Mourinho is also very confident about this game: "Playing at Anfield is difficult for any team,

But we have enough confidence that we can win here. "

"Even if we can't win, the draw is completely acceptable."

At 8:45 pm local time in the UK, the first round of the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, the match between Liverpool and Chelsea officially started at Anfield.

At the beginning of the game, Liverpool took the lead in launching the offensive.

In the 4th minute, Emre Can sent a cross from the wing, and Li Chenglong turned around and hit the goal in the middle of the penalty area, but Terry blocked the ball.

In the 7th minute, Gerrard made a pass, and Sterling stepped forward to take the ball to form a single goal, but the linesman raised the flag to signal offside.

Liverpool threw two axes at the beginning, but it didn't work, and then the game began to calm down.

The current Chelsea team is an enhanced version, and their strength is stronger than the original time and space.

And Lee Cheng Long came back from a lap in Asia, and his condition was indeed affected, and his performance was very average.

Under such circumstances, Liverpool's offensive is limited and it is impossible to open the situation at all.

At the end of the first half, Mourinho had already seen Liverpool's problems.

So at the beginning of the second half, Chelsea began to play proactively, wanting to turn away.

In the 55th minute, Chelsea counterattacked with a long pass, and Hazard broke into the penalty area with the ball.

Skrtel stepped forward and knocked Hazard away to snatch the ball. The whole Chelsea team shouted and asked the referee for a penalty.

Especially Mourinho, who was so excited that he spit wildly on the sidelines.

However, the Czech referee Kralovic did not award a penalty kick, he thought it was a normal steal.

Seriously, this is basically a home whistle.

Skrtel's ramming and stealing just now was actually the kind of action that can be judged or not, and it was just at the referee's thought.

The Slovak himself is not a top defender. His biggest feature is his daring to fight and grab.

But daring to fight and grab this attribute can sometimes have very good results, and sometimes it can become a time bomb.

After this defense was in distress, Liverpool also began to recover their formation appropriately.

As a result, the two teams spent the rest of the game time.

In this way, the two teams played a dull game at Anfield, and finally ended 0:0.

Liverpool kept a clean sheet against Chelsea at home, and also lost a clean sheet to Chelsea at home.

For such a game result, both sides can actually accept it.

But in general, Chelsea is more satisfied with the result of this game, and they all smiled after the game.

Not to lose at Anfield, this is the basic goal that Mourinho set for them before the game.

In the post-match press conference, Mourinho began to criticize the referee without any surprises, thinking that Hazard's ball was definitely a penalty, claiming that his team was stolen from the victory and so on.

On Liverpool's side, everyone is not in the mood to argue with Mourinho. Although the current score is acceptable, it is indeed a bit unfavorable to Liverpool.

"It is a pity that we failed to win the game at home, but we are not out yet."

"I remember last year's UEFA Champions League semi-final. At that time, I experienced a zero-block game at home, but in the second leg, we went to win the away game and advance."

Li Chenglong took the initiative to stand up and speak to boost the morale of the team.

Last season's UEFA Champions League semi-finals faced Atletico Madrid. At that time, Schalke 04 played by Li Chenglong had a 0-0 draw with the Sheets at home in the first round, but in the second round, Li Chenglong scored twice to help the team beat the opponent 2:1 , successfully advanced to the final.

In the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals, a total of two boring games were played.

In addition to the Premier League civil war between Liverpool and Chelsea, the Madrid Derby in La Liga also scored 0:0, and Atletico Madrid tied Real Madrid at home.

Although it was only a draw, Atletico Madrid managed to break Real Madrid's unbeaten record.

Since the start of the UEFA Champions League this season, Real Madrid has won six consecutive Champions League group matches, double-beat Schalke 04 in the top 16, and maintained a complete victory in the first eight games.

Now against their rivals in the same city, Real Madrid finally broke the record of victory.

However, although the undefeated record was broken, Real Madrid still maintained its unbeaten Champions League, and is currently the only team in the Champions League that is still undefeated.

At the same time, in the other two first-leg matches of the Champions League quarter-finals, Juventus beat Monaco 1-0 at home, which is considered a normal result of the game.

The strength of the Bianconeri is already stronger than that of Monaco, and it is reasonable to win at home.

However, the score of 1:0 is not safe. The old woman can only say that she has a small advantage in the first round, but there is still a long way to go before she can really advance.

In another quarter-final match, Barcelona's home game against Bayern Munich was a direct blow.

Barcelona beat Bayern 3-0 at home with Messi's brace and Neymar's goal.

Bayern, who is absent from the Robery combination, does not seem to be Barcelona's opponent at all.

The score of 3:0 basically declared Bayern's death sentence, and at the same time allowed Barcelona to overwhelm Real Madrid and become the favorite to win the Champions League this season.
