[엑스포츠뉴스 김정현 인턴기자] Son Heung-min was unable to score after failing to get through Chelsea’s tight defense.
Tottenham Hotspur drew 0-0.
Chelsea took the 4-3-3 squad. Goalkeeper Edouard Mendi, Reese James-Thiago Silva-Kurt Zuma-Ben Chilwell, N’Golo Kante-Mateo Kovacić-Mason Mount and Hakim Ziech-Tami Abraham-Timo Werner were the starters.
Tottenham went on to the 4-2-3-1 projection. In addition to goalkeeper Hugo Joris, Sergios Orie-Jo Lodon-Eric Dyer-Sergio Legillon, Pierre-Emil Hoivier-Musa Sissoko, Son Heung-min-Tanggui Ndombele-Steven Berchwein and Harry Kane were selected.
In the first half of the first half, Tottenham led the game, increasing their participation. Hoivier was in charge of starting the build up as he descended below the mid back, while Dyer and Rodon were in charge of starting the build up to the side.
Chelsea quickly put pressure on her opponents on the offensive side. If he took the ball from pressure, he would immediately switch to attack and aim to score, but couldn’t see a special scene.
In the 10th minute, there was a scene where Chelsea shook the net first. Rodon went up to the midline to build and the ball was stolen, and Mount drove it and connected it to Werner from the left. Werner scored with a right-footed shot, but the goal was disallowed for Werner’s offside.
In the 14th minute, Orier fired two consecutive shots from the rear and a second shot hit hard, threatening Chelsea’s goal, but goalkeeper Mendy’s super save came.
In the 26th minute, Son Heung-min tried to sneak in for space in a fast attack transition scene, and although the shooting area was reached, he connected with Berchwein. Berchwein couldn’t shoot and the ball was caught.
Chelsea increased their participation towards the middle of the first half and Tottenham lowered the defensive line as before Manchester City. Hoivier and Sissoko also covered the half-space gap to prevent Chelsea from strong flanking attacks.
Chelsea got stuck in the 34th minute down the right wing, though Abraham tried to cross the diamond with his personal skill. In the 39th minute, Žiëch aimed at Abraham with an early cross from the right, and Abraham made a round and tried a shot with the right, but missed.
Even in the second half, both teams continued a close flow with each other. Chelsea constantly tried to attack with Ziech’s kick.
Chelsea’s Reese James quickly penetrated the right flank and lifted a cross to attack Tommy Abraham.
In the 48th and 50th minutes in a row, a James cross headed for Abraham, and Abraham finished with a woeful shot, interrupted both times by Rodon.
Tottenham fought Ndombele, who played a key role in the transition to attack, being constantly blocked. Even when preparing to the side, both defenders couldn’t easily get up.
Chelsea failed to score on a corner kick in the 58th minute, and Kante and Mendy, who were followed by Tottenham kicking the ball, were in danger. Son Heung-min quickly followed him and threatened the two players. Mendi managed to clear it.
In the 66th minute, Tottenham attacked from behind and cut the ball to Chilwell, who made an early cross. Žièch received the ball from inside the area and connected the shot, but went high.
Chelsea used Olivier Girou and Christian Pulleysik, and Tottenham used Giovanni Rosselso to try and change the offensive side.
In the 80th minute, Mount managed to infiltrate from the center and fired a great shot, and Joris made a great super save.
Son Heung-min made an eye-catching attempt in the second half. Son Heung-min penetrated half-space on the right side in the 81st minute and fired a quick cross, but the opportunity was missed when Mendi reached out and blocked it.
At extra time in the second half, Rodon’s header ball to give to the goalkeeper was directed at Ji-ru, and Ji-ru fired a shot but was blocked by Joris.
Then Lucas Moura, who was replaced by Chelsea’s Pass Miss, received the ball and passed the pass to Rosselso. Rosselso raised the cross, but his breathing did not match and he missed the opportunity.
