After resting for a week, Qin Xi's physical condition recovered perfectly.

Although Borussia Dortmund are menacing and can sit at home, Chelsea advance to the last four at minimal cost.

They played in a controlled manner throughout the pitch and Tuchel told the players that the weekend's game against Tottenham was particularly important.

As a result, Chelsea had only seven shots on goal in the game, but possessed 68% of the ball.

In another match, Real Madrid reversed Bayern.

Chelsea have suffered from Real Madrid for the third year in a row.

On the other matchday, Manchester City also beat Juventus in a bloodless victory to meet AC Milan who beat Barca in the semifinals.

......

In Saturday's opening match, Manchester City and Nottingham Forest played each other.

This result makes Chelsea's game against Tottenham Hotspur even more important at the weekend.

The team is hoping to score three points at the New White Hart Lane stadium to shake off Manchester City, who scored the same points before the start of this round.

But Conte is a soft persimmon, and after the signings before and after the World Cup, the Italian coach looks confident.

They hope to finish in the top four at the end of the season and qualify for next season's Champions League.

Tuchel also made some of his personnel changes ahead of the game.

Although there were two consecutive matches in the City of London, the players reduced their time by a certain amount.

But after all, he just finished playing Dortmund.

Facing Tottenham.

He hopes Qin Xi, James and Mount will play in the second half.

Conserve stamina.

Kovacic, Corona and Gallagher are back in the starting line-up.

Several friends sat on the bench in New White Hart Lane.

Look at the stadium scene in the distance.

"I heard that the owners of our club have signed an agreement with the London City Department that the expansion of Stamford Bridge will take place next summer."

Mount's words caught Qin Xi's attention, and he was right, Stamford Bridge is still slightly sparse compared to the home stadium of those top giants.

If that girl can really add 20,000 seats at Stamford Bridge, she can surely make her name in the history book of Chelsea Club.

However, James was still a little curious about Zou Zheng, and he chatted with his friends on the side about the embarrassment of that day.

With referee Kane. Foley blew the whistle to start the game, and the much-anticipated London derby was on the verge of breaking out.

After the signing, Tottenham Hotspur really played a different fighting spirit than the previous half of the season.

Conte and Tuchel are also the Premier League's best coaches in a three-centre-back formation.

Both coaches couldn't hold back off the field, shouting loudly to command the players.

Qin Xi and the two English boys beside him giggled.

In the 18th minute, Tottenham's attack made them laugh.

Sun Kai connected.

Son Heung-min took the pass from Hoibel behind him and quickly gave it to Harry Kane.

The latter faced Mendy and easily pushed into the net.

1-0, home team Tottenham lead by one goal.

This goal was also due to Korona's poor eyeing of Son Heung-min.

After all, he only came to the team in the winter window, and the degree of ambivalence with his teammates is obviously not qualified.

Tuchel was helpless, and the camera immediately focused on James, who had a serious expression on the sidelines.

The midfield of Kovacic and Ngoro contrasts with the opposing group's younger midfielders.

It's a bit strenuous.

Chelsea were slow to launch a decent attack after conceding the goal.

It was the three attackers up front, Vlahovic, Timo Werner and Gallagher who fought very actively.

They drain their physical strength and reduce each other's possession.

Conte is a very pragmatic coach.

While in charge of Chelsea, he won 1-0 in key games.

So Tottenham Hotspur is like Manchester City's style of play after leading.

It wasn't until the 44th minute that Chelsea scored one of the most threatening attacks of the first half.

With a corner kick, Vlahovic won the first drop point, but the ball was put on the upright by him.

The Serbian striker, who missed the opportunity, was helpless.

The referee also did not give stoppage time and blew the whistle at the end of the half.

At the end of the game, one of Chelsea's assistant coaches had a verbal altercation with the Tottenham bench player, which was also unexpected.

It seems that the second half of the game will be full of gunpowder.

However, this is the rhythm that the London derby should have.

In the first half, it was more like the two sides were testing their opponents.

......

'Listen to me, kid, if you want to win the Premier League after a long absence, you have to make a difference in the second half.

Tuchel spurred on the players loudly in the dressing room.

He also made an important decision not to make substitutions at half-time, as the media and fans speculated.

The German boss was quite satisfied with the performance of his disciples on the pitch.

Qin Xi and Mount and other substitutes listened carefully to the coach's words.

A game is a game and they fully respect the coach's choice.

But who wouldn't want to represent the team in such a London derby?

......

Before the start of the second half, Conte made a few adjustments.

He replaced Kurusevsky, who performed well.

Replaced with Lo Celso.

Replace the next striker, replace it with a midfielder.

Everyone could see that the Italian head wanted his disciples to hold on to the victory.

With the addition of a midfielder, Tuchel also saw the pros and cons.

He did not call Qin Xi, but asked Jorginho to warm up.

In the 57th minute, Jorginho replaced Gallagher.

Three English lads, all sitting on the bench.

People don't talk much anymore.

Because time is ticking by.

In the three-midfield formation, Kovacic is positioned higher than Ngoro.

Jorginho dragged on.

Chelsea are more like putting up a 3142 formation.

Three centre-backs, one back, two centre-backs, and two strikers, while the wings were all given to two wing-backs.

But Cesar Azpilicueta, who played as a guest left-wing-back in this game, is old after all, and at 70 minutes, he has run and cramps.

As the players treated him, Tuchel waved his hand.

Let Qin Xi, James and Mount all go to warm up.

The absolute core of the three clubs is about to come off the bench.

Tottenham fans booed at the sight of them.

Chelsea fans, on the other hand, paid tribute to the owners of White Hart Lane with songs.

"What's wrong? Are you afraid? Qin

Xi was running slowly on the sidelines, and he couldn't wait to play.

......

"Miss, the three players in our club who have completed the contract renewal seem to be about to appear." Linda smiled and said to Qi Xin on the side.

"Let's hope they can get the points they want for the team, you know, their weekly salary after the contract extension has at least doubled." Qi Xin looked solemn.

If they lose, Chelsea will be one point behind Manchester City.
