Jakarta –
Chelsea Got it right Manchester City always want to take the initiative of the game. But The Blues won’t let them comfortably do it.
Chelsea will face Manchester City at Wembley, Saturday (17/4/2021), WIB in the semifinals FA Cup. Ahead of this match, Chelsea Manager Thomas Tuchel lauds his opponents, calling them the benchmark in Europe.
But not without reason Tuchel made this confession. Man City are already an established team after nearly five years at the helm Pep Guardiola. While Chelsea have just started a new era since last January with Tuchel.
Even so, Tuchel believed the opportunity remained open in this kind of one-time duel. The man who has never won in five meetings against Pep Guardiola’s team wants Chelsea to play boldly.
“I expect a match with very high intensity and exhausting. City presented themselves with a clear DNA and style of play,” said Thomas Tuchel.
“They want the ball, have high possession, high possession recovery. We also want that, so we have to fight for those moments and tire them out.”
“We need to play very courageously, without being timid, willing to explore the field and do what needs to be done,” he was quoted as saying. Guardian.
