UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE semifinal 1st leg: 308

    The competition said the greatest in the world were played. It is semifinal. My favorite Chelsea in London survive. others are Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munchen. Surprisingly, two teams in Madrid survive. One of them, Atletico Madrid is the team which my favorite Fernando Torres has belonged in his teenager. When he was 19 years old, he wear the captain mark. It is amazing. And semifinal's enemy of Chelsea was them. Moreover, Chelsea went to Madrid for 1st leg. Vicente Calderon is Atletico's home. It was disadvantage for Chelsea. But, Fernando Torres had special feeling. Diego Simeone who is Atletico's manager have played with Fernando Torres when he was player. It was great game for each other.
    Because of including home advantage, The game was for Atletico. Atletico was always aggressive for 90 minutes. But Chelsea's defense also very solid. It was not broken by Atletico's attack. Jose Mourinho who is Chelsea's manager adopted defensive tactics. His tactics was expressed "stopping bus in front of a goal". The origin was the game with Barcelona when Mourinho lead Chelsea before. He has ever lead Chelsea once, but He didn't win the Big year, Champions league's title. He try to achieve revenge in new Chelsea. He order his team to defense at the central. He is good at functionalizing the tactics, but the team which can make the most of it is only Chelsea because there are the best center backs. Mourinho can also show great performance in other tactics, but I could understand why he adopted the tactics because I understood Atletico's characteristic.  It is height. their strikers' height Is not tall very much. So There was no problem for Chelsea to be possess a ball at side and to be throw in center from there by Atletico. (308)
