"Good evening, everyone, welcome to watch Gugu Sports on time! Today we will bring you the 2012-2013 FA Cup semi-finals! The two sides are Manchester City from Manchester and the top team Chelsea!"

Zhan Jun's familiar voice appeared in the computers of thousands of households.

Countless fans are looking forward to it.

Of course, the most important thing is that tonight's showdown time is not particularly late, and China time is 11 pm.

Many fans who are not Manchester City and Chelsea also have great expectations for this game -

There is no doubt that Chelsea and Manchester City represent the highest level in the Premier League at present!

"Wegan Athletics has taken the lead in qualifying, and the winner of this game will compete with Wegan Athletics for the final championship at Wembley Stadium!"

"And Chelsea beat Wigan Athletic 3-1 in the first game of the league, and in the second game, Ye Chen was absent, defeating Weigang 4-1. As for Manchester City, it also easily won the opponent 2-0 in the league. It is no exaggeration to say that the team that won this game will win this year's FA Cup championship ahead of schedule!"

"For Chelsea, if they continue to win the cup this year, it will be the fifth time in seven years. They won the cup four times in 2007, 2009, 2010 and 2012 respectively! Manchester City was the FA Cup champion in 2011! Of course, Chelsea is now strong and has made all substitutes in the last round of matches against Inter Milan, preparing for this game. Not to mention Manchester City, although they won the league championship last season, but were eliminated this season and lost to Chelsea in the League Cup final. There is no hope for the league. The FA Cup is their only competition now."

The familiar Zhan Jun report data moment.

Zhan Jun will make data in advance in every game, and many people even call Zhan Jun a "football database" with extremely rich knowledge reserves.

Of course, there are also some mistakes occasionally, such as Ye Chen's goal count in the last game, and there were a small flaw.

In fact, at the record-breaking level, Ye Chen should play in the game Inter Milan.

But out of respect for Manchester City, Ye Chen didn't even make the roster.

This also shows how much Klopp attaches importance to this game!

"The intensity of this game is imaginable!"

"The starting players of both sides have appeared in the player channel."

"We saw Manchester City continue to wear blue jerseys at home, while Chelsea drew away jerseys - this is exactly the same as in the last League Cup final."

"Manchester City and Chelsea have played four games this season, and Chelsea has won three of them and tied one!"

"The League Cup final was even more difficult to defeat the opponent with Ye Chen's final victory!"

"Every time the Double Blues battle is tense and exciting. What kind of sparks will be created today? Let's look forward to it together!"

After introducing the basic situation before the game, Zhan Jun continued to explain today's starting lineup.

"Okay, let's take a look at the starting lineup of both sides first!"

"Manchester City has arranged a familiar 4231 formation."

"The goalkeeper is Johart, who everyone is very familiar with."

"Left back Krish, double defender Nastasic partnered with Kompani, right back Sabaleta."

"The two midfielders are Bari's partner Yaya Toure."

"Left winger Nasri, front midfielder David Silva, right winger Milner."

"One striker Aguero."

"There are also many good players sitting on the bench - Manchester City's lineup is still very deep this year. It's because Chelsea and Manchester United performed so well this season, and they have become the number one group!"

"Chelsea also has a 4231 formation."

"Targetkeeper Cech."

"Left back Ashley Cole, the central defender combination is Terry and David Luis, and right back Azpilicueta!"

"Two midfield partners Kante and Modric."

"Left winger Hazard, front midfielder Mata, right winger Gotze."

"Only forward Ye Chen!"

"I believe that the familiar Chelsea fans know this starting lineup well, and Ye Chen's good friend Wang Chu was arranged on the bench. Of course, Wang Chu started the Europa League match against Inter Milan in the last Europa League match, and it was reasonable for this game to be substitute! Fans who want to see China connect may have to wait a little!"

"In addition, de Bruyne, Casamiro, Mane, Torres are also waiting for opportunities on the bench!"

On the court, players on both sides are ready.

With the theme song of the scene ending, the captains of both sides took the side and started today's official competition.

Mancini took a deep breath on the sidelines.

For many people, this is an ordinary game, but for him it is a life-and-death battle.

The senior executives have already talked to him in private. If all four major players are gone this season, he will be fired.

Fierce competition in the Premier League is everywhere, from players to coaches, and even the chefs who cook in the kitchen will face fierce competition.

"Beep!"

With the referee's whistle, the game between the two sides officially began.

There are also many big names in the stands today.

Even Manchester United coach Ferguson came to watch the game in person, and next to him was David Beckham.

Now Beckham is a player from Paris Saint-Germain, so it is convenient to come from France. Of course, all his salary during this period was donated to charity organizations, so he didn't want a penny.

At Beckham's age, what I care about is no longer competitive state or winning the championship, but mainly to pave the way after retirement.

After all, no one would think that there is too much money.

Just like Ye Chen on the field - he wouldn't think he scored too many goals!

The Chelsea players rushed on at the beginning of the game.

The whole army attacked!

Although the opponent is Manchester City and the midfielder has outstanding ball control ability due to the existence of David Silva and Yaya Toure, Manchester City during this period is far less terrifying than when Guardiola coached in the future.

As an Italian coach, Mancini is definitely not as persistent in ball control tactics as Spanish coaches.

So today, Klopp decided to play the one they are most familiar with before the game - high-pressing.

Dortmund's triple-champion is actually made through the players' constant running.

After coming to Chelsea, Klopp also moved his original tactics here. Of course, because the Premier League is more confrontational, Klopp made fine adjustments.

In the first half, they played a fast-paced high-pressure press, advanced two, and then played a defensive counterattack in the second half.

While conserving your physical strength, you can lead the snake out of the hole.

In summary, it is to maximize the pressure and defensive counterattack.

Of course, this coincides with Ye Chen.

His long-range shot must-get card is the siege hammer that best suits this style of play!

This is also an important factor in how Chelsea can join the championship ranks this season.

And this style of play must be Ye Chen.

It would be difficult to achieve such an effect if it was Torres. This is why fans have a feeling that as long as Ye Chen is not here, Chelsea will not have that sharp feeling.

This is not an illusion, but a fact.

14 minutes and 46 seconds.

Chelsea had a beautiful defense from the left, and Ashley Cole blocked Milner.

Milner wanted to pass the ball, but the ball went out of the sideline.

Ashley Cole threw the ball to Mata who came to the left to get the ball.

Uncle Mata looked very energetic today. After getting the ball, he dribbled the ball in the middle, faced Barry's backup defense, and transferred the ball to the side again.

Ashley Cole plugged in at high speed and crossed directly from the bottom.

Ashley Cole was undoubtedly a strong contender for the first left-back in the Premier League when he was strong, with balanced offense and defense, and a strong contender for the first time in the Premier League!

Facing Sabaleta's defense, his cross power was slightly not controlled and he flew directly to the back point.

Ye Chen in the middle was entangled by Kompany and could not reach the top, and Gotze also rushed over.

By chance, he landed at the feet of Azpilicueta outside the penalty area.

Seeing that no one pressed at the first time, Azpilicueta shot with a kick--

Seeing that Ye Chenjin has too many long shots, many Chelsea players also have the illusion that I can do it if I go on!

"Bang!"

The football turned into shells and flew towards the blind spot of the goal!

Johart in front of the goal was highly focused. Facing a powerful blow, he moved quickly and saved the ball from the goal with one hand!

The football landed on the billboard behind the ball net—

The nervous and exciting game came into view!

Of course, Ye Chen had already run into the small penalty area and was ready to find a bargain at any time-

"roar!"

Johart also roared excitedly after saving this beautiful long shot!
