Chapter 68 has the benefit of having a big center

As the players from both sides entered the stadium, the fans at the Calderón Stadium chanted the names of every Atletico Madrid player on the live radio.

For Atletico fans, being able to see the team reach the last four of the Champions League for the first time in four decades is enough to be proud of their performance.

Especially when the name of Li Qingshan, who was at the back of the line, was called, the voice at the scene suddenly became louder.

Strikers who can score goals are always favoured by the fans.

After the players' names were called, the live radio began to play the Atletico Madrid anthem, "Himno De1 Netario". The fans in the stadium also sang along.

When the captains of both sides finished picking sides, the players of both sides had already set up their formations. At this time, the camera's lens reality locked on Li Qingshan, and then locked on to Terry.

This footage tells us that one of the highlights of this game is the confrontation between Li Qingshan and Terry. What kind of sparks will be sparked in the head-to-head duel between two players with such strong bodies? ”

The commentator took advantage of the time before the game started to introduce some of the situation on the field to the TV audience.

Chelsea were given the first half of the game, with Fernando Torres standing in the centre circle and next to him was Willian.

Fernando Torres was the only Chelsea player to receive a warm welcome and applause at the opening kick-off. After all, he is an academy player at Atletico Madrid, and the youngest captain in Atletico Madrid's history, and is loved by Atletico Madrid fans.

In 1995. Torres joined Atletico's academy at the age of eleven. In 2001, at the age of 17, Torre became the youngest player to represent Atletico Madrid, and over the next two years, he helped the team to a successful return from the Spanish second division to the first division.

His record at Atletico Madrid is 91 goals in 244 games!

Back on the pitch, the red and white jerseys were dyed blue, and Torres must not be at peace at the moment.

Due to Diego Costa's return from injury, Simeone sent a double forward lineup in this home game, Li Qingshan and Diego Costa partnered in the front, Raul Garcia, Koke, Mario Suarez, Gabi four in the midfield, right-back Juanfran in the backline, two central defenders Godin partnered Miranda, Felipe at left-back, and Belgian Courtois in goalkeeper position.

On the Chelsea side, Mourinho is clearly reserved on the road, he has a 4411 line-up in Calderon, the goalkeeper is of course the helmet man Cech, Gary Cahill and John Terry in the backline, and the two England central defenders with strong frontal defensive ability play together, obviously aimed at Li Qingshan.

In midfield, Jose Mourinho sent Brazilian defender David Luiz to play in the central midfield position, coupled with Mikel, who has a strong defensive interception and sweeping ability, as well as Frank Lampard and Ramirez, Chelsea's midfield hardness can be seen.

Willian, on the other hand, played as a shadow striker, roaming behind centre-forward Fernando Torres.

From the outset, Chelsea took advantage of their tee off to spearhead the attack. Atletico Madrid is also a team that is very good at defending and counter-attacking, shrinking the middle and waiting for an opportunity to counter-attack.

The current Chelsea team is still different from Mourinho's Chelsea in the first phase, Mourinho's Chelsea in the second phase still maintains the style of the iron-blooded Blues in terms of defensive intensity and hardness, but in attack due to the loss of Robben, the fast side counterattack is now not as fast as the first phase of Mourinho, but Mourinho's Chelsea in the second phase also obviously has some of Mourinho's latest ideas - the Mourinho style of defensive counter-attack may now change slightly, and he is now beginning to deliberately pursue some control of the ball.

It's just that away from home, Mourinho is still cautious. Chelsea retreated after attacking for a while without much success.

Jose Mourinho's intention to bring a defender like David Luiz in midfield to play in his place at the back was already evident. Chelsea are ready to counter-attack with an iron-hearted defense away from home, and it is best to score a goal against Atletico, even if they can't score, they can't concede a goal, and a 0-0 score is acceptable for Jose Mourinho.

But the 0-0 score Simeone does not accept, this is Atletico Madrid's home stadium, if the home team can't win the opponent, then the second leg to London, Atletico Madrid wants to qualify for the difficulty.

When Atletico attacked with the ball, Chelsea immediately felt the pressure.

Li Qingshan looked very excited from the beginning of this game. Chelsea are the third English side he has played against, the first two being Liverpool and Manchester United. In general, Li Qingshan made his debut in England, and he knows a lot about England's football style.

Although the England element of Chelsea's squad is not too obvious, both of their centre-backs are English. English football is all about simplicity and directness, and power is paramount. This is very much in line with Li Qingshan's appetite.

Although Atletico Madrid's attack did not have the authority to press, their formation was very layered, and Li Qingshan was at the front. With his back to the Chelsea goal, he was battling with John Terry for position.

Terry, who weighs 90 kilograms, was not able to squeeze Li Qingshan at the moment, which made him very surprised, knowing that there are not many players who can make him fall into the disadvantage in physical confrontation.

At this time, he thought of his former teammate Drogba, and at this moment, Li Qingshan seemed to be stronger than Drogba's strength in his eyes!

Fortunately, Terry is an experienced centre-back after all, and although he fell behind in physical confrontation, he still relied on his rich defensive experience to go around and destroy the high ball passed to Li Qingshan.

Li Qingshan was also a little surprised, he had not encountered a central defender who could physically confront him alone for a long time, and still had the strength to defend around the front. It's just that he doesn't care, after all, this game has just begun, as long as the ball is in the penalty area, the attacker can always have a certain advantage, after all, the defender always has to shoot a mouse bogey when defending.

Atletico have now surrounded Chelsea, their attack is very layered, although Li Qingshan did not get this forward long ball, but Terry pushed the ball out, and the landing point was still controlled by the Atletico players on the periphery.

After controlling the perimeter landing point, Atletico's attack began to wave after wave, one attack failed, and there was a second attack and a third attack. In the end, the football fell to Atletico Madrid, constantly attacking and making the Chelsea penalty area loud.

Atletico Madrid are actually besieging Chelsea!

"It's a surprising scene now, before the start of this game, many people thought it was a duel between two defensive teams, and even Atletico Madrid would fall to the bottom - after all, they are not as good as Chelsea on paper, but from the opening period, Atletico Madrid really unhurriedly surrounded Chelsea's penalty area and attacked!"

Mourinho stood up with a somewhat serious expression. He originally thought that he was ready for Atletico Madrid's home attack, and he thought that the opponent would be so fierce.

Wave after wave of attacks crashed against Chelsea's defence. Especially Li Qingshan, although he has not yet threatened the door of the Petr Cech, Li Qingshan has made Chelsea a little overwhelmed by the control of the high-altitude ball, and even the physically strong Terry has fallen into the battle with Li Qingshan's high-altitude ball.

Because Atletico Madrid has such a strong fulcrum in the front, it also allows them to attack boldly with confidence!

Atletico Madrid's attack is very simple and direct, and because of the presence of Li Qingshan, simple and direct attacks are often very effective, this is the advantage of having a big center, the tall Li Qingshan to Chelsea's penalty area a stop, like a lighthouse, Atletico Madrid's other players only need to pass the ball to the top of Li Qingshan's head, Li Qingshan or head back, or ferry, or even stop the ball in the penalty area by himself!

It's a pity that he is mostly facing away from the attacking direction now, so he has not had a chance to directly attack the goal for a while!

But even so, it made the Chelsea penalty area scramble!
