Chelsea: less is more

The revenge was conceived. The reply to Iniestazo became so violent a manner as unusual . Chelsea arrived in Barcelona by plane but on the pitch put the bus. The team of Roberto Di Matteo achieved for the final classification as Racana, as unattractive as effective and directly proportional to the epic, the feat and heroism they displayed in the Camp Nou turf warriors English, who were reduced to ten players in the first half and managed to score two goals.

Chelsea put the cards on the table in London, where he saw the avalanche of cases that led to his opponent again and again encountered the blue defensive wall. He took oil at home and no secret that home would be the same tactics. Unlike the club, the League was played against Madrid, the Italian coach was able to rest many of the headlines last weekend against Arsenal. With the same eleven that won at Stamford Bridge were planted in the Stadium.

Again, the strategy was the same: see the barrage of sometimes come with a waterproof Barca virtually impervious to the constant drip of football Barça minimum, seek a deadly knocked against the local mood. And although they conceded two goals in the first half, despite Terry's foul play in one inning as ugly as deservedly punished, Ramires was able to find the occasional crack in an attack that ended in a goal, the extra time both psychological .

As in London, when Drogba scored a decisive with time served in the first act, Chelsea repeated the story right at the time that saw Barça topped the comeback. Surely if Guardiola had chosen to defend the result, the score would have been different. But he refused to burst into his players back and continued to attack, leaving holes in the rear, as evidenced by the second goal the English when the Blaugrana desperately seeking justice.

Di Matteo and his men were neck with water, holding his breath: just as they did in the first leg. The one chosen was the only way to overcome the enemy, he had no. Crossbar, the crossbar and Cech lined up for Chelsea, with a player less for almost an hour he said thanks to a goal from Fernando Torres, again in the discount, that you just knock the champions of Europe. The formula efectivista resultadista and triumphed at the expense of Barcelona style book.

Now, Chelsea, standby opponent as he rubs his eyes. Theirs is a feat in the making. He put on small to become big. He has dreamed since Abramovich took the club in 2003. However, in the final against Real Madrid or Bayern, Di Matteo, a technical step that can make history-will be without four of the starters in the Camp Nou, essential in their scheme: Terry, Ramires, Meireles and Ivanovic All through suspension. In game, his first Champions.
