Chapter 1119 - 268: Refuse Reversal_2

"It is unwise for Lu Yang to strain his relationship with Real Madrid like this. This creates a lot of difficulties for him to join Real Madrid in the future. Even if the club and fans can accept him, those Real Madrid players will hold grudges."

"Cutting off his own path, Lu Yang gave up a real path to success for a bit of commercial hype, which is very foolish."

...

In such a tumultuous atmosphere, time finally came to April 24th.

The first leg of the Champions League semi-final between Bayern Munich and Chelsea officially commenced.

The match was exceptionally intense from the start, showcasing "Soccer Fighting Skills" to everyone.

Both Chelsea’s and Bayern’s players went physical madly.

Just fifteen minutes into the game, a total of three yellow cards were already issued to both teams.

And Chelsea’s main goalkeeper Cech was directly kicked out by Bayern.

This was definitely a blow to Chelsea.

For a defensive counter-attack team, the goalkeeper’s saving ability is crucial.

Cech’s saves were good, but still not top-notch; Chelsea was looking for a better goalkeeper than him.

From this perspective, you can guess the level of Chelsea’s second-choice goalkeeper.

Absolutely not high.

Sure enough!

Less than ten minutes after the second-choice goalkeeper came on, Bayern Munich’s midfielder Bass Tiger scored with a long shot through Chelsea’s goal.

This made the defensive counter-attack style of Chelsea extremely uncomfortable.

They had to change their style in the second half.

Fortunately, Gutierrez demonstrated his strategic value.

Although he hadn’t fully adapted to Felish’s defensive counter-attacking tactics, he was able to showcase his own offensive system when the team couldn’t play defensive counter-attacks.

"Ferreira passes... Beautiful! Gutierrez scores!"

"One to one! Chelsea equalizes the score at their home ground!"

"Ferreira’s pass is beautiful, worthy of the newly rising young star of Argentina, some call him Xiaoma Mateo, his technical characteristics are very similar to Mateo."

"However, the most brilliant part of this goal was Gutierrez’s handling. The consecutive two ball shifts after receiving the ball were simply amazing, worthy of a former Golden Ball Award winner!"

The turning point of this match occurred in the 89th minute.

Bayern’s player Andy Ludwig scored a goal from a very obvious offside position, but the linesman remained indifferent.

The main referee immediately ruled the goal as valid.

The entire Stanford Bridge Stadium erupted.

Fans cursed angrily.

This was definitely not a goal.

Chelsea’s players surrounded the main referee.

And Bayern players crowded in, protecting the main referee to avoid him changing the decision under pressure.

Subsequently, Chelsea’s captain Tessli, known for his fiery temper, directly pushed Ludwig.

Bayern players immediately retaliated.

A full-scale brawl broke out.

The main referee immediately showed two red cards, sending off Chelsea’s Tessli and Bayern’s left-back Philippe Sibue.

Felish also received a yellow card for his agitation.

The scene was momentarily out of control.

Chelsea fans continuously chanted: "Black whistle, fake match. Black whistle, fake match!"

This continued until the end of the match.

As soon as the match ended, the main referee fled into the player tunnel.

But Chelsea’s players didn’t let him off easily, they rushed in after him.

Gutierrez stopped in front of a microphone as he ran, saying to the camera: "I was in midfield at the time, but I could clearly see it was an offside goal. Are the referee’s eyes blind?"

"Disgrace! It’s a disgrace to the Champions League!"

This video clip also became the most circulated segment after the match.

The offside goal was too obvious; the main referee and the linesman had no reason to rule it as valid, but they did just that.

Chelsea immediately filed an appeal after the match.

Felish brought up old matters again, stating in the post-match interview: "If I remember correctly, when the Champions League quarter-final draw was made, the second team drawn was San Remo, which caused this draw to be voided, and it seemed to be Bayern!"

"Now it seems that Real Madrid is not the only one with privileges in the Champions League!"

Bayern’s top brass felt bitter!

Damn, if we had privileges, would we suffer so much?

We are not even the favorites!

UEFA is really insidious, throwing the blame on Bayern to eliminate Chelsea.

You say Bayern is unlucky?

Have to endure it.

Because enduring it leads to making it to the finals.

Bayern couldn’t forgo this opportunity.

This is their opportunity to fulfill their wishes in the Champions League!

Therefore, Bayern’s head coach said in an interview: "Misjudgments are also part of the game. Besides, it wasn’t only Chelsea that experienced misjudgments in that game. Bayern was also misjudged several times; this is normal."

Felish almost smashed the microphone in the face of Bayern’s head coach: "You call turning an offside goal into a goal normal? Don’t compare regular misjudgments with such major misjudgments."

Bayern’s head coach: "We have to look forward, the matches will continue, and we can’t slack off in our next game."

Felish: "If UEFA can’t give Chelsea justice, Chelsea doesn’t rule out the possibility of suing UEFA!"

Felish fired shots again!

He’s practically the Lu Yang of the coach community.

Specialized in targeting UEFA.

UEFA stirred up controversy again.

At this time, the Italian Football Association suddenly stepped in.

Martivini said in an interview: "If there was VAR in the Champions League, this goal could be judged most accurately. I’m not saying to promote VAR, I just hope that football matches can be conducted in the open."
