But at the first minute of the second half, the fans of Lucerne completely dispelled their illusions. At that time, Tobinski received Sampedero's ball on the left, and then took the ball to the front court and passed it to Codingho in the middle. After two steps, Codingho sent a straight plug, but the ball was a little small. Envanieri caught up with the ball in front of Esposito. He was only ahead of Egypt. Sposito was in a position, so he didn't dare to hold the ball. He fell to the ground and tackled the ball back to the goalkeeper Stewart, but he also made a mistake in a hurry.

At this time, more people began to doubt whether Bijelyka had sank, but some people saw that Bijeka had an assist in this game, and when he also had a chance to shoot, he passed the ball to Lewandowski in a better position. This ball also shows that there is nothing wrong with Bjeka's mentality.

On the day after the victory over Lucerne, Lin Fenglei led the team to London, the capital of England, to prepare for the first round of the quarter-finals of this season's UEFA Champions League held here on the 24th, challenging Chelsea away.

This is the first time that Lin Fenglei has led the team to this famous European city to play a game. "Fog City" really lives up to its reputation. After Lin Fenglei led the team to get off the plane, it has been drizzling here, and it has been foggy, which makes people feel very depressed.

Lin Fenglei doesn't like the climate here very much, but of course he would not say that in an interview with reporters. He said that he had a good impression of the city, which is a famous city with a very long history. When talking about the opponent of Chelsea in this game, Lin Fenglei said that Chelsea is a Premier League giant team. Their strength is very strong and a team that is not easy to deal with. It is still unknown who will win or lose in this game.

Chelsea's head coach Benitez's attitude is much tougher in an interview with reporters. He said that Stamford Bridge is our home field. Here, he must defeat Gosau. Even if Gosau is the defending champion, his goal is still to win.
