this is when it really gets tense only four teams remain in the biggest Club competition in the world and we're not far away from kickoff in the first leg we have all the action for you live on EA TV [Music] excitement and drama in Prospect tonight here at Stamford Bridge in West London my name is Derek Ray and sitting next to me here on the commentary Gantry is the former Arsenal and West Ham United midfield band Stuart Robson and now things get really exciting on the UEFA Champions League front we're up the semi-final stage and what we have coming up is the first leg how's it going to go Stuart well this is what the champions league is all about some of the world's best players two excellent teams and a great Stadium let's hope we're not disappointed [Music] [Applause] thank you [Music] foreign [Music] [Applause] starting 11. well I'm intrigued to see how their two Midfield players COPE in there today because they look very isolated yes they're good athletes and skillful players but it's asking an awful lot of them [Applause] [Music] [Applause] foreign [Applause] now in this Champions League semi-final first leg [Applause] realizing that it might be opening up on the opposite flank s Suarez good looking pass well he always has to be regarded as a dangerous opponent so what should we expect to see from him in this game Stuart well he's certainly the player to watch because his gold sell he's been excellent this season he's been a constant threat whenever he gets oh he could finish here Stewart and able to close down the shots [Applause] [Applause] and over it comes and did his job defensively Danielle Malin well what a save that is he was [Applause] priest James Luis Javier Suarez [Applause] Rodrigo just knocking it around looking to carve out a chance it's a corner [Applause] [Music] played over well he read the Flight of the ball brilliantly but just couldn't quite keep it down narrowly over the bar [Applause] Nicolas Benedetti still pushing for the goal that would put them ahead but not forcing it [Applause] Luis Javier Suarez and now Rodrigo [Applause] will he play it in making progress [Applause] easy save [Applause] excellent use of the ball as they make their way forward [Applause] now with habits Luis Javier Suarez Rodrigo pass after pass keeping their opponents moving and just offside but by of whisker my goodness [Applause] Kevin De bruyne oh nice ball over the top to Chase well nothing comes of the attack when all is said and done working away patiently looking for an opening Rodrigo and players waiting in the center can he finish here defensive Excellence there and unfortunately for him he had worked his way into an offside position and I think everybody in the ground could see that was always going to be offside shin shin [Applause] Benedetti [Applause] still on level terms moving the ball nicely under real pressure here oh terrific save from The Keeper well that's just a wonderful say how did he stop that [Applause] can someone get on the end of this goalkeeper will accept corner kick deliveries like that every day [Applause] habits pulisic possession lost by Chelsea here [Applause] Rodrigo Luis Javier Suarez and it crossed the byline a goal kick as a result foreign draws to a close here in West London probably a fair assessment of his first half's work would be a mixed bag well he didn't contribute enough in that first half I think he needs to work harder to get on the ball he was far too static in my view he's got to make more runs behind this back line in the second half [Applause] and underway now in this Champions League semi-fucked second half of this Champions League semi-final first leg underway [Music] [Applause] Suarez well that's one for them to pursue it's a nice looking ball well I suspected that might be difficult for the keeper but I was wrong [Applause] and a friendly reminder that we have more action from the Premier League coming up it's Chelsea facing West Ham United well the fixtures are coming thick and fast it should be a good game that hopefully I'm not just giving it the commentator's curse committed challenge Rhys James [Applause] and wasteful from Chelsea Matthias Norman Doyle moving it forward Benedetti [Applause] himself wonderful save there [Applause] [Applause] and a substitution in the offing [Applause] corner kick played in well they couldn't take advantage of the chance [Applause] although shortage of live action coming your way right here on EA TV Stuart and I looking forward to being with you for this match that looks a really entertaining game two good teams with two excellent coaches I can't wait for that one to come round [Applause] and danger here as he runs at them still pushing for the goal that would put them ahead but not forcing it Doyle surely [Applause] how important could that prove to be well let's take another look and it's a very good goal and they deserve it you have to say they've been excellent [Applause] so Chelsea get things going again how will they reply to that setback [Applause] really good reading of the game to win possession back might be able to produce from this position [Applause] bye-bye Chelsea and into the last 20 minutes peaceful looking position you've got to say opportunity to deliver the cross would be straightforward for any keeper [Music] will what support these Chelsea fans are given the team but time isn't on their side they need a goal quickly and moving the ball nicely it's opening up for them surely was a save [Applause] [Music] [Applause] like so [Applause] and it's a quality pass [Applause] can he finish them off he's done it what a climax to this game [Applause] [Applause] so toenail now [Applause] and that'll end up being the Keeper's ball straight forward piece of goalkeeping Danielle Malin Norman and cutting inside an incisive pass and not cleared away properly terrific piece of anticipation [Applause] pulisic and space to cross it they were playing fluent football but then the foul and now you would anticipate a yellow card and a yellow card for that Stuart and he's going to have to be careful now that was a silly challenge [Applause] [Applause] now delivering that deep cross bad Challenge and now it's up to the referee in terms of what to do next and yellow it is a booking yeah he was too impatient to win the ball and probably deserve the yellow card [Music] referee has deemed that an additional four minutes are in order [Applause] pulisic offside by a fraction [Applause] and teammates to play it too happy to take on the shot and a fantastic diving save [Applause] and now the delivery and he took care of it defensively and so the referee confirms that this first leg is officially over just what the away fans were hoping for now they've got to hold their nerve when the action moves to their patch time round and strong so much of the game and service into the into the players they use the wide area as well and their Midfield players made some Dynamic forward runs they have certainly given themselves a great chance of reaching the final now well we're focusing on him for a reason made with real Authority and attack Stuart well I thought he was excellent not only did he score a good goal but his General play was outstanding he certainly played a major part in their win here today [Applause]
