Lampard says Real Madrid tie isn't over as long as we believe
12 APR 2023
Frank Lampard knows our defeat to Real Madrid left us needing something special in the second leg of our Champions League quarter-final, but has seen it happen before at Stamford Bridge with the Chelsea supporters behind us.
蘭帕德知道輸給皇馬之後，我們在歐冠八強戰次回合中需要一些特別的東西，但他曾在斯坦福橋看過這種情況，當時卻爾西球迷都支持著我們。
Chelsea were reduced to 10 men following a red card for Ben Chilwell against European champions Real Madrid in Spain, and ended up suffering a 2-0 defeat in the first leg of our Champions League quarter-final following goals by Karim Benzema and Marco Asensio either side of half-time.
在西班牙對陣歐冠冠軍皇家馬德里的比賽中，卻爾西在奇爾維爾吃到紅牌後十人作戰，本澤馬和阿森西奧在上下半場各進一球，最終藍軍在歐冠八強戰首回合比賽中 0-2 落敗。
However, speaking after the game, Frank Lampard pointed to the spirit his team showed to restrict Real Madrid's chances after the sending off and the chances we created ourselves as reasons to believe a comeback is still possible with home advantage in the second game at Stamford Bridge.
在賽後的訪問中，蘭帕德指出球隊在被罰下一人後表現出了限制皇馬的精神，我們自己也創造過機會，讓我們有理由相信在斯坦福橋的第二場比賽中，憑藉主場優勢我們仍有可能逆轉。
‘It was a big challenge for us,’ said Lampard. ‘The period with 11 men, we were in the game and we had some chances, but I think we could have utilised our strengths better, especially the system with the wing-backs, we could be more urgent.
“這對我們來說是個巨大的挑戰，” 蘭帕德說， “在 11 人作戰時，我們在比賽中有一些機會，但我認為我們可以更好地利用所長，特別是翼衛體系，我們可以攻得更加緊迫。”
‘I could see opportunities there tonight and we had good spirit, playing with 10 men in the last half-hour, we didn’t let them have a lot of chances. I liked that part of the game and we have to believe it is possible.
“我看到了今晚的機會，我們有很好的精神，在最後半小時 10 人作戰，我們也沒有讓他們有太多機會。我喜歡比賽的這一部分，我們必須相信晉級是有可能的。”
‘I don’t think they carved us open when we had 10 men, which is due to the spirit we showed and we had chances of our own. We had chances of our own. I can think of three really good opportunities – Joao early on, Raheem’s effort and then Mason’s shot at the end – if we put one of those away, then things look very different.
“我不認為他們在我們 10 人作戰時佔盡了良機，這是由於我們表現出的精神，我們有自己的得分機會。我能想到三個很好的機會 － 若奧的開場射門、拉辛的射門，還有芒特最後時刻的射門。如果我們能抓住其中一次機會，那麼事情就會大不相同。”
‘I think there were some good things from our display but the result is a reality. I’ve said to the players in the dressing room though, special things can happen at Stamford Bridge.
“我認為我們有些不錯的表現，但結果是現實的。我在更衣室裡對球員們說，在斯坦福橋會有特別的事情發生。”
‘If you don’t believe in top level sport then things don’t happen for you. The mindset and the belief are a percentage of the game. The fans will believe, they will come and support us. I’ve been involved in games that have changed. The possibilities are ours for the taking.’
“在頂級體育賽事，如果不相信自己，好事就不會發生在我們身上，心態和信念是比賽的一部分。球迷們會相信的，他們會來支持我們。我參與過發生變化的比賽，逆轉的可能性得看我們自己。”
Lampard went on to discuss the double blow of losing Kalidou Koulibaly to injury shortly before Chilwell was sent off...
蘭帕德繼續討論了奇爾維爾被罰下，和此前庫里巴利因傷下場的雙重打擊...
'For sure, it’s a blow to lose Kalidou through injury. People have to come in and step up though. Marc came in and had to do his job and unfortunately we’ve lost a big player in Chilly.
“當然，庫里巴利受傷是個打擊，其他球員必須站出來，庫庫雷利亞登場，他必須完成自己的工作，不幸的是，我們失去了奇爾維爾這個重要的球員。”
'He’s a big player for us and would have been in the second leg too. But like I said, people have to come in and step up.'
“奇爾維爾是我們重要的一員，他本來會出現在第二回合的比賽中。但就像我說的，其他人必須站出來，挺身而出。”
He also gave his view on the performances of Raheem Sterling and Joao Felix in attack, and whether we will need to anything different in that area when we chase the game in the second leg...
蘭帕德還對拉辛．斯特林和菲利克斯在進攻端的表現給出了自己的看法，以及我們在第二回合比賽中是否需要在這個部分有所改變...
'The game for Raheem and Joao Felix was a tough match. They had to put in a lot of work and their main threat was on the counter-attack or protecting the ball. It was a difficult night for us at the top end of the pitch, but Joao is a big talent, as is Raheem.
“這場比賽對拉辛和若奧．菲利克斯來說是艱難的，他們必須投入大量的工作，他們的主要威脅是反擊或保護球權。對我們的前場來說，這是個艱難的夜晚，但若奧是個天才球員，拉辛也是。”
'We’ve got a long 90 minutes of football in the second leg and our approach will need to be a balanced one. I don’t think you can play without balance against Real Madrid because of their attacking threat, but will also need to have an extra attacking urgency in our game.
“我們在第二回合比賽有 90 分鐘的時間，我們必須保持平衡。我不認為在對陣皇馬的比賽中可以失去平衡，他們的進攻威脅很大，但我們也需要在比賽中保持額外的進攻緊迫感。”
'The fans will help, the atmosphere will help but also our job in the meantime is to prepare the team as well as we can to turn the game around, but we have 90 minutes to try do it.'
“球迷們會幫助我們的，主場的氣氛也會，但同時我們的工作是竭盡所能讓球隊做好準備，扭轉局面，我們有 90 分鐘的時間去嘗試。”

Every word Frank Lampard said on Chelsea's defeat, Joao Felix and set-piece issue
By Scott Trotter, Chelsea writer - UPDATED 00:40, 13 APR 2023
．You went with five at the back tonight, was that to make it difficult for Vinicius?
Partly the reason. I think I had different things to consider. Vinicius one-against-one is a big problem for any team so we wanted to created two-against-ones on that side of the pitch. It didn't help getting the yellow card for Fofana so early, it makes you nervous. He's a player that is very good.
With a back five, you want to not be a back five as much as you can and we tried to enforce that. When we have the ball we want to be a three, we want to use the width of the pitch. As I mentioned, we could have done that a bit better, it was a weapon for us to use today. Get the ball out of pressure, get it to the side. In terms of the system, the thinking was very clear to negate threats but to give us an in possession control of the game which we could have done more.
．What practical things can you do in the next week to give players more belief they will score?
I get that question a lot. My first feeling is work on the training pitch but when I consider the work that we do, we work a lot on the last third, finishing and crosses and the idea we want to get across. That's pretty clear, I don't think we can go much further than we do. The last bit is somtimes confidence whether it's an individual thing or team confidence. I think I come back to the work side of it then. If you work, keep going, something can change. Mason's chance at the end might go in and the tie feels completely different, the early parts of the game we might get a goal. Continue to work, speak to the players. No player doesn't want to score a goal. Sometimes they need support confidence and a push in a positive way. Not just next week, it's my job until the end of the season because it's been happening and I've come into this and it's my job to address it as well as I can.
．What did you think of the second goal?
It was not a tactical issue, it was a not switching on issue, not being focused in the moment. If you watch back the goal, we're not as we should have been. We're one man down but from a set piece you should control the basics and that's a disappointment. I don't think Real Madrid created a big, big number of chances in that period with ten men, so a set-piece you shouldn't concede.
．The second leg will be a challenge, will it be a challenge for your future?
I don't think one game specifically is going to change my future. I am here for a period of time until the end of the season, Iit's been pretty clear. I absolutely took the job under that idea. I understand it completely, the things that happen in between, I'm not thinking about what might happen in May or in June, I'm thinking about what I can control now. I don't see it that way. I will get asked that question a lot in the next six weeks. Genuinely in my mind, I'm here for this period. After that we will see.
