UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE semifinal 2nd leg with Atletico Madrid were played at Stamford Bridge which is the Chelsea' home. Before the game started, a press conference had taken place by Diego Simeone who is the manager of Atletico Madrid. He told to a lot of journalists that Chelsea had been too defensive when they had played 1st leg, but this is one of the tactics and football would become dull if only it exists in the world against a criticizing of a Chelsea's tactic. He didn't criticize a Chelsea's tactic. I thought he was a professional.
This game was different from 1st leg. Chelsea was defensive in the 1st leg, but this game was more aggressive than 1st leg. It is home advantage. Chelsea's players must have felt great because their supporters supported them enthusiastically. But it was a counter football. Both of the teams needed a score because they could not score in the 1st leg. In the anticipation before the game, Chelsea seemed to have advantage. So I was sure that Chelsea won the game and advanced to The Final in Lisbon.
At that time, Real Madrid advanced to the final. My best friend is a Madridista, a Madrid supporter. So I wanted to fight and win him.
First goal was born in Chelsea. The scorer was Fernando Torres who was strong in big games. He didn't celebrate him by himself because He scored against his old home. I thought he was a professional. But, I heard Atletico's chairperson, Enrique Cerezo was sure that Atletico won the game at that time. It was right. It became real. In the closing minutes of the first half, Chelsea allowed a point. It often happens in football because teams become careless and they make their defense loose at that time. I felt dangerous because Chelsea scored and relaxed clearly in addition to the additional time's danger. Atletico's player who was at right side gave a cross to Adrian Ropez who was a Atletico's striker at far side. Nobody marked him. The first half finished. The lost point was great sorrow because it was a away goal. Chelsea could not advanced to the final if they didn't score a goal at least.
Second half started. Jose Mourinho decided to send Samuel Eto'o to the pitch, he added a striker to score. Chelsea has Fernando Torres and Samuel Eto'o. I thought Jose's decision was simple, keen, and right. But the judge had a mistake. Atletico was so aggressive that Chelsea could not stop them because Atletico has power in the first half. Samuel was a striker but he had to defense in Chelsea's penalty area. It was bad because he is not defender but striker and he was one of the best defender as a striker such as he was called striker Claude Makelele. He was called the greatest defensive midfielder in the history. he flourished Chelsea and Real Madrid. He was a player who played two player's role in defense alone called Makelele role. He always stopped enemy' counter without being absorbed by defense line. It was great. almost players could not do it. But of course, Samuel was not better at defense than defender. Needless to say, he was absorbed by defense line because he made a mistake in Chelsea's penalty area. He push Diego Costa who was Atletico's ace striker down. I thought the ace striker was clever because he was near bad defender. I thought Jose's decision is too early. He should have been calm. He should recover Chelsea's pace with passing with five players in centre. Diego Costa scored with penalty kick. Chelsea needed two goals. It was difficult for Chelsea, but they gave up. They became aggressive. They made a lot of chances, but they stopped defender and goal post. Then Atletico put an end to the game. It was easy for them to break Chelsea's defense. One of their player gave to a fellow a cross. He hit a shot, Mark Schwarzer who was a Chelsea's goalkeeper flicked a ball, and Arda Turan who was an Atletico's player of left side half and ran into centre. Then the referee whistled.
If Chelsea had won the game, Torres might have flourished at the final. Both I and my best friends was looking forward to fighting each other. But Torres scored. It is little hope to be elected World Cup squad. I'm looking forward to it. (761)

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE semifinal 1st leg vol.2 :323
Chelsea defend completely from Atletico's attack.
Chelsea lined up top players and Fernando Torres in starting members. Mourinho who is their boss said to a lot of journalists " I don't tell you that Torres will be lined up in starting members, but he may be in pitch for about 5 or 10 minutes.", but Torres was lined up in starting members. I thought Mourinho had told a lie to puzzle Diego Simeone who was Atletico's manager. I thought Mourinho was clever again. Finally, Fernando Torres was in pitch until having been whistled by referee and the game ended in a zero - all draw. Fernando Torres could not score to his old home, but his dribble and shoot was effective because his hart was burning. Torres was asked whether he returned to play at old home again in the future or not, but He answered to him or her " from a game to a game. " This word is often used by Diego Simeone who is a friend of Torres. This mean soccer players should concentrate on now. Unless they do so, they show their supporter the best performance. He seemed that he didn't think about far in the future.
It was a good game. Diego Simeone told that It was advantage for Chelsea to having ended in a zero - all draw. I thought so, too. It is advantage because 2nd leg will be played in Stanford Bridge, so to speak, Chelsea's home, but Chelsea could score away goal is also a fact. They should be carefully. I hope Chelsea won the game in 3-0. 3 will be Torres' goals. I expect Torres will make hat trick.
Next is against Liverpool. It is the series of three games with two old homes for Torres. I'm looking forward to winning the game, and I hope Torres scored to the old home which he had flourish for the first home. (323)

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)

English Premier League week 35 games in 2014 :619
Premier League's week 35 games were played. I watched Chelsea against Sunderland. Chelsea's place was second and Sunderland's place was bottom. There were 2 points between Chelsea and top Liverpool. Chelsea had a chance to overtake them. Sunderland was danger of League's rank down. Because I support Chelsea, I hoped they got 3 points. I thought Sunderland was bottom team, but they were strong, because they tried to stay this league. Sure enough, they were strong and the game disappointed me.
In the twelfth minute of the first half, Samuel Eto'o in Chelsea scored picture perfect first goal. Then, I thought I didn't have to concern about Sunderland strength. But the strength became serious. In the 18th minute of the second half, Chelsea was overtaken by Sunderland. Connor Wichham who had made two goals last week in Sunderland scored. I started to worried about Chelsea's losing. After few minutes, My favorite Fernando Torres showed up by touch line. In the 29 minute of the second half, he entered in the pitch. After that he changed the game. He made a lot of chances, but his efforts didn't pay off. Chelsea was so aggressive that its defense was so loose. About 4 years have passed since he was bad condition. I am very sad, but I believe him. After that, I came across problem scene. After Cesar Azpilicueta in Chelsea had lost his footing, Jozy Altidore entered in penalty area in Chelsea. When Azpilicuta tried to rob the ball, Altidore fall forward in it. Mike Deen who is a referee whistled with his first finger pointed at the penalty spot. I watched the hell. I don't know whether He fell by myself or not. So It is problem scene. But I want to believe that he fell by myself because I am Chelsea's Supporter. In the 37th minute of the second half, Fabio Borini who had been one of the Chelsea's members in Sunderland scored in center in goalmouth by penalty kick. After that, Chelsea kept attacking, but Sunderland's defense was so solid and Chelsea can't break Sunderland's block. Mike Deen whistled and the game finished.
After the game, Jose Mourinho who is the Chelsea's manager complain by good irony. He said to many journalists "I want to celebrate Sunderland and the referees who showed us the best performance." I agree with him.
It became difficult for us to win the title. Liverpool won and there are 5 points between Chelsea and them. There are only three games. Chelsea can't win the title by themselves. Let's watch whether Liverpool can happen miracles or not in remaining Thee games. I have watched that Chelsea happened miracles so many times. So I believe Chelsea will win the title. One thing Chelsea can do is to win the next game. It must be the best game in this season. It is head-to-head battle with Liverpool in Liverpool. Because It was played in Anfield which was own by Liverpool, Chelsea is disadvantage. Anfield is, so to speak, Liverpool's home. But I believe Chelsea will win the game. After we win the game, we only desire that Liverpool will happen miracles. So I want two kinds of miracles. they are miracles which Liverpool happen and one which Chelsea win the title. And It is the battle with a team which have belonged before for Fernando Torres. Moreover He flourished there very much. Moreover, After He transferred from there to Chelsea, His uniform was burned. His heart must be also burning now. Let's watch whether they can happen miracles or not in remaining Thee games.
