Forlan took the lead and Simon Davis once equalized, but in overtime, Aguero assisted Forlan again. Lan broke through.Atletico Madrid won the European Cup for the first time since winning the European Cup Winners' Cup in [-].

This is the first time the two sides have met in European competition.Zamora and Duff recovered from injury in time to appear in one of the most important games in the club's 131-year history.Atletico Madrid ranked the strongest lineup to eliminate Liverpool in the semi-finals, and Ujfalusi replaced Barrera.

In the end, Atletico Madrid won the UEFA Europa League with a goal in extra time and won 2-1.

Atletico Madrid, who won the Europa League, returned to Madrid. They held a grand celebration ceremony. This is also the first time the team has participated in an official game after 95 years after winning the La Liga and King's Cup double crowns in the 96-14 season. trophy.All the players of Atletico Madrid stood on the open-top bus and paraded in the city of Madrid to show off the Europa League trophy they just got. The team celebrated in the Town Hall Square and the Almudena Church successively. At the Fountain of Neptune, which is also the traditional place for Atletico Madrid to celebrate.

Thousands of Atlético fans celebrated the historic moment with the team, with captain Antonio Lopez tying an Atlético scarf around the neck of the Poseidon statue at the Neptune Fountain.

Fulham could only return to England sadly with the title of runner-up. Although they won the respect of the fans, they could not see any celebration scenes in London, just because they brought back the runner-up, which is not a runner-up in the football world. !

London fans still have a chance to celebrate the championship, and that is the final of the FA Cup to be held after 2, and Chelsea will play in the final.

In the 200910-1 FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium, Chelsea beat Portsmouth 0-6, Chelsea scored 6 goals, Petr Cech saved Boateng's penalty kick, and then Drogba scored with a free kick , Lampard also missed a penalty kick.This is the sixth time Chelsea have won the FA Cup and the third time in the past four years.

The only pity is that Chelsea won the double crown for the first time in the club's history, but missed it.

As the oldest football match in the history of modern football, the FA Cup has created too many records that amazed the latecomers. The further the record book goes, the more difficult it is to break through. It would be such an honor to get a seat.

And in today's final, Ashley Cole, 29 years and five months old, has become an important figure that must be portrayed heavily: his sixth FA Cup win record, making him the champion of the competition. No.5 since 139 years.

It’s just 35 appearances in the FA Cup, but Ashley Cole repeated the lifelong dreams of many English players like playing a game. Modern football is not the early stage of the early stage with clear distinctions between strengths and weaknesses. It is difficult for you to guarantee I have won the FA Cup in my limited career, not to mention winning 30 times as a main force before the age of 6.

In fact, it was God's will. A-Ker was impartial and happened to break into two specific areas of the FA Cup in the first decade of the 21st century. One was at Arsenal. In the first five years of this century, the Arsenal FA The Cup has won 3 championships and 1 Asian Cup, and A-Ker happens to be among them; and in the next five years of this century, when he switched to Chelsea and won the Triple Crown, A-Ker also happened to be among them, just like winning the lottery jackpot. A series of coincidences are coming to you alone, and there is no way to avoid it.

Although several giants dominate the Premier League, the nature of the FA Cup hotbed remains unchanged. Even Millwall and Cardiff City can reach the final in the first decade of this century, so can Southampton, West Ham and Portsmouth Entering the final as a Premier League team, and even winning the championship in 08, is actually nothing more than normal.

In this case, the multi-line battle giants are sometimes like rookies. They don't know which round the tension can't get up, or the main players don't have enough physical strength, so they immediately suffer from being dumb.Therefore, except that A-Ker himself may have the opportunity to improve his own record, it is even more difficult for other players to reach the status of six championships or even higher.At least for now, no one is qualified.In addition, Gallas should be most jealous of A-Ker's achievements. The choice of playing team happened to be completely reversed with A-Ker, so that the Frenchman never won an FA Cup.

In today's final, it can be regarded that A-Ker has put a little effort into his true performance, which is not particularly outstanding, but three threatening passes and two clearances are enough to ensure that his left side will always keep opponents in fear. Keone’s threatening shot was also thanks to A-Ker’s blocking, which made him feel uncomfortable. Otherwise, Pichione chose a good angle in the small penalty area and shot angrily. Two Petr Cechs Can't beat it.This season, Cole was absent for about 2 days from February to April. As the absolute main choice of Capello in the England team, A-Cole obviously should not use too much force when it is time to spare. The effect is that, anyway, to defeat Pompeii, the power in the midfield is enough.

This season, because of injuries, Cole played a total of 33 games including cup games. After becoming the team's main force in the 01-02 season, he played more than 7 games in 40 seasons. He only played in 05-06 due to serious injuries. 14 times, even if this season is the second least, the second time was injured in the World Cup year, and the impact on A-Ker cannot be ignored. [

And at the moment when A Cole was injured and Bridge quit emotionally, whoever played England left back became a hot topic. Perot's disturbed heart immediately calmed down.Although A-Ker's private life is also full of troubles, but on the field, he is still the first or second left back in the Premier League.

One or two are vaguely mentioned here, and it is obvious that Evra can compete with him. Just looking at the league data, the Frenchman has played more than 1000 minutes than Cordo, and his defensive data is much higher. Here are incomparable factors.But one thing that may excite England fans is that A-Cole's offensive data is much higher than that of Evra, which somewhat shows his efficiency in this regard.

A-Cole played 2155 minutes in the league, scored 4 goals and assisted 3 times, while Evra played 3288 minutes in the league, scored no goals and assisted 3 times. Evra was slightly ahead of 34 to 29, and the number of shots was 21. It is leading 11 to [-].Looking at the final result, I suspect that A-Ker is much higher.

Of course, the number of goals scored and assists alone cannot be the only indicator to measure the ability of a full-back. It can be concluded that Evra himself should not be able to find a place that is definitely better than A-Ker.Here is a non-existent assumption. If Acorr, a player Mourinho traded for Gallas, can play in the two Champions League games against Inter Milan, will Mourinho be able to make it to the final?

Really not necessarily.In the two games against Inter Milan, Ancelotti used Malouda first, and then Zhirkov, which was full of offensive ideas, but the defensive players, especially Malouda, were completely set up to catch ducks. Malouda played well when he went up, but he dealt with many details when playing a full-back. How does a left winger feel so much?But a hypothesis is a hypothesis, and A-Ker can only watch his team be humiliated by his old coach.

During the period when A-Ker was recovering from his injuries and the rumors were exposed, there were rumors that Real Madrid tried to acquire him for 2500 million pounds. Cole's ability no longer needs too much nonsense. How many people are there for a left back like him?Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga happen to be weak in this position. They are one step lower than Ashley Cole, and almost the same is true of other non-English giants. He and Evra are said to be the top two candidates in the world. It is estimated that There are not many voices of opposition. Of course, neither of them will choose to leave. After the World Cup, next season's Premier League, the positional confrontation between the two will be a very attractive point of view on the back line.

Going back to the game that night, it was supposed to be a disparity between the vice-president of the league champion and the vice-president of relegation, but this FA Cup final turned into a close contest. In the first half, the Blues created at least 4 or 5 chances to score must be scored, but they were all wasted one by one.Relying on the brave performance of goalkeeper James, the Portsmouth people kept the suspense until the 58th minute at least.In addition to Drogba who scored the winning goal in this game, Anelka, another member of Chelsea's striker, also won warm applause from the fans.

After being transferred from the familiar right wing to the left winger, the Frenchman Anelka's performance was not only not restricted, but even more brave.

Only in the 4th minute, after receiving a pass from Lampard, Anelka broke through to the edge of the penalty area and blocked a shot. This shot also blew the clarion call of Chelsea's attack.

Two minutes later, Anelka acted as a back-to-back ferryman, header to Drogba, who shot wide of the near corner.In the 2th minute, the Frenchman broke through to the vicinity of the penalty area and was then brought down.In the 10th minute, Anelka made a comeback. After entering the penalty area from the left, he shook and got rid of the two defenders one after another. Then his shot was saved by James from the near corner.In the 14nd minute, the Frenchman, who had been unable to attack for a long time, tried a long-range shot. His strong shot from 32 yards was blocked by the opponent's defender from the bottom line.

In the 46th minute of the battle, Ashley Cole crossed the ball from the left to Anelka on the penalty area line, and the latter's long shot was blocked by the defender from the baseline.In the 50th minute, Anelka cruising to the left side of the penalty area again, his ball breakthrough on the left side put a lot of pressure on the opponent's defender, but was subsequently destroyed.In the 75th minute, Anelka suddenly kicked a cold shot while controlling the ball from the left side and the ball went wide of the goal.In the 78th minute, Anelka broke into the penalty area from the left and crossed to Lampard, who volleyed over the bar.

After the game, "Sky Sports" gave him a high score of 7 points in the game, only lower than Drogba, who set the world with one kick.Anelka, who appeared on the left wing in this game, showed a level of performance and created opportunities that were even far higher than when he was playing right winger, which deserves to be described as a fish in water.If Anelka had placed the Frenchman on the left, then Anelka's league record this season would probably not be as simple as 11 goals and 7 assists.

Anelka is like an irritated "lion". He is using his performance on the court to counterattack the coach on the sidelines.Of course, he was not targeting Ancelotti at this time, but Grant on the opposing coach's bench. In the 07-08 season, when Grant succeeded Mourinho to take charge of Chelsea, although the Israelis led the Blues to the Champions League final, for Anelka, it was a really bleak half of the season.

"In the Champions League final that year, Grant left me on the bench without even giving any explanation." Although Grant personally brought the French striker to Stamford Bridge during the winter transfer period of 08, he did not No responsibility was assigned to it. "Grant looked down on me." In an interview with the "Sun" before the game, Anelka said: "Maybe he thinks I should be grateful to him, because he bought me from Bolton."

Perhaps, the stimulation of the new contract is another reason for Anelka's outburst.After several months of stalemate, the Frenchman's contract renewal negotiations have reopened. According to the "Daily Telegraph" news, the Frenchman will sign a new three-year contract with the club before the start of the World Cup, worth a total of 1500. million pound contract.This means that the 31-year-old Anelka is likely to end his career at Stamford Bridge.This "bad boy" who has traveled to many football giants such as Arsenal, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Fenerbahce, described Chelsea as "warm like a family" after joining the Blues. With a lifetime contract, being able to hang up his boots in the "home" is undoubtedly a happy ending for Anelka.

"I hope to sign a new contract as soon as possible," Anelka said. "I am very happy at Chelsea, I feel like I have found a home. Ever since I left Real Madrid, I have always wanted to play for a big club again and now I am Playing for Chelsea. It's a big club with great players. I feel like I'm playing the best football I've ever played in my career and I want to continue spending my time at Chelsea." The Daily Telegraph "Revealed that after the contract renewal, the Frenchman will get a weekly salary of 10 pounds from the club.

It was a thrilling victory over the Pompeii Legion 1-0. Chelsea, who won the championship, can now enjoy the joy of victory to their heart's content.After the game, coach Ancelotti thought it was a victory of extraordinary significance.

"Chelsea have never won the European Cup and that will be our goal next season. Of course, the league and the FA Cup are equally important," Ancelotti began when asked about his outlook for next season: " We want to win the Champions League trophy. In fact, our team already has the strength to win this season, but unfortunately it fell short. Of course, today's victory is equally important, and we need to enjoy it to the fullest."

Amidst the pressure and doubts this season, Ancelotti has achieved success at Stamford Bridge: "It is normal to have pressure, and the pressure will be even greater next season, but we just need to be ourselves. Next year we will come back, and Do your best to win every honor."

Although it is only an FA Cup championship, for Chelsea people, it is more timely and effective than any other championship. Obviously, the game is difficult, but if there is no championship, what can we talk about a successful season and continued glory.

In other words, the FA Cup champion is a fig leaf for Chelsea, so what?

In the league, Chelsea is second, but everyone knows that if they hadn't had some problems in key games, the championship would not have been changed to Manchester United. Chelsea's FA Cup championship came just in time, yes Everything is good, anyway, with the championship in hand, Chelsea will definitely hit other championships next season. [

Up to now, there is only one Premier League team that still has matches, and that is Manchester United. They will soon be in the final of the European Champions Cup. Whether Manchester United can win the Champions League three consecutive championships is a battle!

Who would have thought that the Champions League still has the concept of three consecutive championships. Now Manchester United is on the road to a great victory, and the final will be staged soon!
