As I watched the replay of Liverpool recent Champion League match, I gotten a little suspicion on Chelsea lost to Real Betis. From what happen between the 2 matches, it resulted in the following
Liverpool | 10 |
Chelsea | 7 |
Real Betis | 6 |
Anderlecht | 0 |
Now had Chelsea won that match, the results will look like this
Liverpool | 10 |
Chelsea | 10 |
Real Betis | 3 |
Anderlecht | 0 |
Which means, both Chelsea and Liverpool automatically go on to the next round, even if they lost the next 2 matches. However, since chelsea "lost". Real Betis has a chance to win the next 2 games and so does Chelsea. That would end up as follows
Chelsea | 13 |
Real Betis | 12 |
Liverpool | 10 |
Anderlecht | 0 |
Well this is only provided that Liverpool lost the next 2 matches (which are happen to be against Real Betis and Chelsea). However, Real Betis now have some confident after beating the impossible Chelsea. This might change things.
As you can see I got a good feeling Chelsea lost on purpose.
