Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel believes his team will be able to win the 2020-2021 FA Cup semi-final ticket from his opponent, Sheffield United. For Tuchel, Chelsea can beat Sheffield in the match, which will take place on Sunday (21/3/2021) night.
Playing at Stamford Bridge Stadium, Chelsea will welcome Sheffield who are currently slumping in the 2020-2021 Premier League competition. Sheffield, to be precise, is now slumping at the bottom of the competition’s standings and having trouble getting up.
Of course this is good news for Chelsea, who will face Sheffield in the 2020-2021 FA Cup quarter-finals. Because of that, Tuchel was quite confident that Chelsea could win a semi-final ticket from Sheffield.
However, Tuchel emphasized that the victory that could have been achieved by Chelsea was not easy to obtain. Because maybe Sheffield can be finished, but to achieve this, he feels Chelsea need to play as well as possible.
Because for the German coach it was not easy to beat Sheffield, even though now the team is in a slump. He believes Sheffield could have caused Chelsea trouble.
So, Tuchel hopes that the Blues players can play their best and not underestimate Sheffield in order to ensure victory in the 2020-2021 FA Cup quarter-finals.
“I can only tell you, is it possible to win against Sheffield in the match? Yes, it might happen, “said Tuchel, as adapted from London Football, Sunday (21/3/2021).
“Is that easy? Of course not. If you want to win, if you want to be at Wembley Stadium (the venue for the FA Cup final), you need to win this game, ”added the former Paris Saint-Germain coach.
So far, Tuchel himself is reluctant to feel that his team has the opportunity to become a champion candidate in the 2020-2021 FA Cup. He just wants to focus from match to match without thinking about whether Chelsea is able or not to win football competitions in England and even in that world.
Apart from the Chelsea vs Sheffield match, there is still one more game that will fight for tickets to the 2020-2021 FA Cup semifinals. The match is the meeting of Leicester City vs Manchester United.
