Face the Forest team.

Qin Xi watched the team's entire performance from the stands.

In the first half, Ben Chilwell provided an assist and Kai Havertz scored easily.

But in the second half of the game, it may be due to the problem of physical condition, even if the 5 substitutions are used, the scene is still passive.

Thankfully, Mendy and the defenders are in excellent form.

Chelsea won one game.

Manchester City, meanwhile, won Brighton with a 5-1 victory.

Continuing to refresh the goal difference lead.

......

Chelsea have been reckless about the form of the table.

They can only focus on themselves.

Although Brighton were swept by Manchester City.

But Chelsea haven't had much consistent play against them recently.

In the first half of the season, the team also won by a difficult goal against the Seagulls.

Massacred by Manchester City in the last round, Brighton will certainly not sit still this round.

Coach Porter also does not want to be abused by fans.

......

During the warm-up before the game, Kovacic, who was originally put in the starting line-up, suffered a hamstring injury.

This also seems to be paying for the team's recent fatigue.

By April, a large number of teams in the five major leagues were questioning FIFA's arrangements.

They believe it was the rescheduling of the World Cup that destroyed the future of many clubs this season.

Barca's Christensen cruciate ligament rupture and will be out for at least nine months.

And this is just a microcosm of the giants who are now full of injuries.

Tuchel had to make temporary changes for this game.

Qin Xi returned to the starting line-up again, partnering Ngoro.

......

But it rained overnight, and the starting center Vlahovic also fell to the ground without confrontation shortly after the opening.

Tuchel had to send Kai Havertz.

In the last game, the German youngster played the whole game.

Therefore, the physical condition is still worrying.

However, fitness kings like Mount and Gallagher inherit excellent form, and in key moments of the team, a player's fitness is often decisive.

In the 21st minute of the first half, Qin Xi finally got a good chance.

When the score was glued, long-range shooting became a tactic that the team relied on.

The Hua Guo midfielder shot a powerful shot, but was saved by the goalkeeper.

Qin Xi, who missed the opportunity, was very disappointed, but this shot also reassured Tuchel on the sidelines.

It seems that the hard ankle injury did not stop him from moving forward.

Qi Xin in the stands also looked very excited.

The corner kick was taken by James, and Qin Xi and several of the team's header masters got into the box.

James raised his right arm and passed the ball into the box.

The ball is full of power, sweeping past the front post and whizzing towards the position of the back post.

Qin Xi jumped up, flicked it slightly, and knocked the ball horizontally towards the back point.

Starting captain Cesar Azpilicueta swept a right-footed shot that went into the goal.

It was also the first goal of the season by a veteran of Spain, who finished scoring and rushed to the sidelines with great excitement.

Long before the start of the season, the news that the old captain wanted to return to Spain left a deep imprint on the hearts of Chelsea fans.

But in the difficult times for the club, he chose to stay.

This goal is more like a gift from God.

In the most stressful schedule, it was he who gave the team the lead.

After the goal, Chelsea also looked more comfortable.

After all, playing at home, they also hope to learn from Manchester City and brush a few more goal difference on the Seagulls.

Just before the end of the first half, Chelsea scored another goal.

Mount took Havertz's cross and fired hard at the top of the box gourd.

It didn't help the goalkeeper to judge ahead of time this time, and the England youngster was once again expanding his goal statistics this season.

.......

With a 2-0 lead, the team returned to the dressing room.

Tuchel was on time and would give some of the substitutes time in the second half.

Christian Pulisic, Gallagher and Pau Torres all appeared.

Mount, Werner and Chalobah can also get a long-lost break.

Qin Xi remained on the field.

Chelsea have completed three substitutions.

Tuchel does not want to break the barrier combination in midfield.

He wants the players to continue the way they played in the first half.

......

After the start of the second half, the pressing up front was reduced by one dimension due to the departure of Mount and Timo Werner.

Although Christian Pulisic is talented, Captain America's defensive scrambling awareness is far inferior to that of the English guys.

Tuchel on the sidelines also let out a loud roar.

Although the team is two goals ahead, he does not want to miss because of the loose nature of the players.

Thankfully, Gallagher showed great competitive form.

Several times he cooperated with Qin Xi and intercepted the opponent's control line in the middle.

Fortunately, Brighton right-winger Lamptai was unable to play due to injury, which was like breaking one of the Seagulls' wings.

In the 69th minute, fans were wondering whether Christian Pulisic was fit to stay at Chelsea.

He responded with a beautiful goal in the midst of doubt.

After Qin Xi possessed the ball, he transferred it extensively to James, who had already started on the right wing.

And Christian Pulisic and Kai up front are already moving forward.

James was smart enough not to cross from the right as usual, but immediately knocked Gallagher on the side.

The English guy kept the ball and rubbed it directly to Captain America.

Christian Pulisic faced two tall centre-backs defensively and calmly rubbed into the far corner.

The ball slipped into the net at the goalkeeper's fingers.

3-0, Chelsea led by three goals.

After seeing his team score again, Tuchel rushed to replace Qinxi with Jorginho.

He was still worried about the injury of the Hua Guo boy.

After leaving the field, Qin Xi sat down with Mount on the bench.

"West, nervous?"

"Do you need to say that? I'm going to set foot at the Bernabéu for the first time in my life. The

two talked about the Champions League semi-final four days later.

Real Madrid again.

Again the Bernabeu.

Mount has stumbled on Iberia for two years in a row.

Two years ago, they played a rain battle with Real Madrid at the Estadio di Stéfano.

Last year, they left standing at the patched up new Bernabéu stadium.

And now, as the strongest opponent in the Champions League.

The Spanish giants are about to face the challenge of their old rivals in West London.

In the end, Chelsea took Brighton without bloodshed.

Tuchel did not attend the press conference as usual.

Instead, after the game, all the first-team players were gathered and a short meeting was held in the dressing room.

"In four days, you will face the strongest opponents and I know that many of you are not meeting Real Madrid for the first time, especially Torres and Conde, Corona, in La Liga, you have all played great games against Real Madrid. I know most of the players in the squad won the Champions League trophy two years ago, but I don't want you to lose your hunger for the Champions League, you have to understand that is the highest stage of the club competition!
