My uncle is Inzaghi

Chapter 211 This crazy kick! The door to victory is opened!

For Arsenal, the direct benefit of beating Barcelona at home is that they don't have to tie up their hands in preparation for the second round against Barcelona.

In this game, the team will definitely play with all its main players!

Arsenal now have 89 points.

Behind them, Chelsea scored 88 points.

Manchester City follows closely behind with 86 points.

Liverpool ranked fourth with 84 points.

It can be said that even Liverpool, which is five points behind the top of the list, still has a chance to win the championship - if Chelsea can beat Arsenal, and they beat Chelsea in the final round of direct dialogue with Chelsea, and Manchester City also loses points. .

Although theoretically, the probability of these things happening at the same time is very small.

And for Arsenal.

If they want to win the championship, the most direct way is to defeat Chelsea head-on at their home court.

In the 37th and 38th rounds of the league, Arsenal's opponents were West Bromwich Albion and Norwich City respectively.

Although these two teams are ranked 17th and 18th respectively, the pressure to relegation is huge.

But at least, in terms of hard power, they cannot compare with Arsenal. Arsenal just need to be themselves and win these two teams at the bottom of the standings. There is no problem.

Therefore, on the road to the championship, Chelsea is the last hard nut facing Arsenal.

In the dressing room at the Emirates Stadium.

Wenger is giving his players some final pre-war mobilization.

"In ten minutes, the game is about to start."

Wenger looked around at his players.

His voice was neither urgent nor slow, but everyone could hear the seriousness in it.

All the Arsenal players also looked serious.

"I believe everyone understands the importance of this game, and I will not deceive myself and say that this is an ordinary league. Because this is the most critical battle that affects whether we can win the championship this season!"

"I think you all remember the first leg against Chelsea."

Mention this game.

Arsenal's players also looked solemn.

The score in that game was 4-3 and Arsenal narrowly won.

But if it weren't for Li Mo's explosion - Li Mo scored four goals by himself in that game! Arsenal are likely to be beaten by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

"The schedule has reached this point, and there are still three rounds of league games left, so it becomes simple to beat Chelsea at our home court! We will win the championship!"

"We will win the Premier League title for the second consecutive season!"

Wenger's words made the Arsenal players excited. Everyone wanted to step out of the stadium immediately, defeat Chelsea and prove that they were the strongest team in the league.

at the same time.

In the visiting team's locker room.

Mourinho is also making final preparations before the war.

Mourinho, who entered Chelsea for the second time, is spending his honeymoon period with Chelsea.

Now Mourinho has no conflicts in the locker room or conflicts with Chelsea staff. Everyone in the locker room respects him and thinks he is a godfather-level coach who can achieve the status that Chelsea has now.

Mourinho, who is supported by the entire team, can indeed lead his team to play a very dominant game.

This is the case this season, Chelsea has always been biting Arsenal until now.

"Fortunately, we have the opportunity to have a head-to-head dialogue with them before the end of the league. The situation is now clear. We only have a win to have a chance to win the championship!"

The Chelsea players also became excited after hearing this.

Champion, who doesn’t want it?

Mourinho finished.

Terry, Lampard, Cech and other members of the team committee also stood up one after another to unify the team's thinking and boost the team's morale.

In such a championship battle.

Any slack will not be forgiven.

Players on both sides have determination and reasons to win.

that's all.

They lined up in the tunnel with their heads held high.

Although there are many people on both sides who are familiar with each other and even have personal friendships in private.

But now no one is chatting with the opponent's players.

The importance of this game does not allow them to have any "personal friendship" now.

The referee team came out of the lounge.

Under his leadership.

Players from both teams lined up onto the court.

The Emirates Stadium suddenly burst into cheers.

The battle for the championship is about to begin!

The two head coaches also walked out onto the court.

The relationship between Mourinho and Wenger is well known.

So, the televised camera knows this too.

The camera always follows Wenger, because he is the head coach of the home team, and according to the established rules, he has to shake hands with the head coach of the visiting team.

really.

Wenger went straight to Mourinho.

The expressions on the faces of the fans behind the coaching bench said it all - they were looking forward to something happening, but they were also a little scared that things would get too big.

However, although Wenger and Mourinho did not speak to each other, they shook hands at least. Although the two hands shook together, they bounced away as if they were electrocuted.

But at least there was no conflict between the two coaches before the game.

Subsequently, the television broadcast refocused the camera on the court.

Players from both sides are already in their respective positions.

The captains of both sides are picking sides.

Finally, Arsenal won the right to kick off.

Wait for captain Arteta to return to his position.

Andre Marriner, who served as the referee of this game, blew the whistle to start the game - the choice of this referee made Arsenal fans complain for a while, because it was Andre Marriner. Marriner called a deer a horse, and it was Chamberlain who committed the foul, but it was the innocent Gibbs who was sent off with a red card.

Therefore, Andre Marriner is also considered to be the first generation blind monk in the Premier League.

However, he is still quite famous. He has officiated many important games, including the World Cup and European Cup. He also officiated the final of this year's FA Cup.

He can be regarded as a veteran referee who is highly regarded by the Football Association.

"The Premier League final has begun!"

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray laughed in the commentary box.

"The two teams met twice before this game. Arsenal defeated Chelsea 1-0 in the League Cup and won 4-3 in the league. It is worth mentioning that these two games Arsenal’s five goals were all scored by Li Mo. I think the Chelsea players today will definitely be very afraid of Li Mo. Chelsea is also one of Li Mo’s favorite opponents.”

"Having said that, he is very happy as long as he plays against a strong team. In fact, he scored more goals against Manchester City," said Gary Neville on the sidelines.

"No, more people should go to Manchester United." Martin Keown obviously has a different opinion.

Just when a few people were talking.

The game has officially begun, and the referees are busy introducing the starting lineups of the two teams.

"The starting lineup sent by the home team Arsenal has only one change from the last 4-0 victory over Barcelona at home, and that is Kaká getting a chance to start. He should be the attacking midfielder. At the same time, Cazorla will Arranged on the right wing, Sanchez is on the left wing, and Walcott is on the bench for this game.”

He Wei, the commentator of Longguo National TV, was talking about Arsenal's starting lineup.

"In terms of other positions, goalkeeper Szczesny, center back Per Mertesacker partnered with Koscielny, left back Monreal, right back Sagna, double midfielder Xhaka partnered with Arteta, center forward, Li Mo!”

"With Walter Ke on the bench, Arsenal are likely to actively seek to control the ball in this game. If necessary, Kaká and Cazorla can play as double attacking midfielders, and Sanchez can move into the center and Li Mo. "Form a forward combination with one high and one high", commentator Xu Yang was analyzing Wenger's intention of sending this starter.

"Let's look at Chelsea's side, which is also an initial position of 4231. The goalkeeper Cech, the center back is Terry's partner Gary Cahill, the left back Azpilicueta, the right back Ivanovic, double The defensive midfielder Mikel partners with Ramirez, the attacking midfielder Oscar, Hazard on the left, Willian on the right, and Fernando Torres in the center!”

"A very tough starting combination, especially the two wingers. Hazard and Willian's breakthrough abilities are very strong! Arsenal's defense will definitely be severely tested!"

The two commentators began to discuss the intentions of their respective coaches reflected in the starting lineups of both sides.

And the basis that allows them to talk at length.

It was the unhurried pace of the entire game in the opening stages.

Neither side tried to block the rhythm, and did not choose to engage in fierce attacks.

Chelsea's posture in the away game was very low. They chose to return their formation to the half court, which seemed very cautious.

Arsenal also knew the strength of Chelsea's counterattack, so they did not dare to launch a violent attack easily.

Both sides seemed very cautious in the opening stage.

This is quite worthy of the title of "Premier League Final".

In the final, no one on either side wants to make mistakes, so being conservative and cautious is the natural choice.

Masters compete with each other.

Strike later is often a normal choice.

The two teams dealt with such offensive and defensive trials.

Ten minutes before the game starts.

Neither side had a combined shot on goal.

It shows how cautious each other is.

It can also be seen that both sides are very mature teams.

You won't ignore the excitement on the court because of the excitement in the locker room.

Instead, play according to your own tactical plan.

The game reached the eleventh minute.

There was just a slight change in this calm scene.

After Oscar got the ball in the midfield, the Brazilian suddenly chose to dribble the ball forward himself, and after attracting the defense, he picked the ball to the left!

"Azar!!!"

The commentators immediately exclaimed.

Hazard stopped the ball easily on the left wing, swung away Sagna with a fake move, and dribbled the ball into the penalty area!

The Chelsea fans in the stands immediately cheered.

The cheers were then silenced by boos from the home team fans.

"Hazard dribbled the ball into the penalty area!" Andy Gray exclaimed.

At the same time, Arsenal's defense responded accordingly. Players shrank in the middle, and the dense crowd blocked Hazard's shot.

But in addition to shooting, the Belgian can also pass the ball!

After his breakthrough with the ball attracted enough people's defense.

There will definitely be a Chelsea player in the open space!

Azar actually saw no one.

But he still passed the ball to the gap in the ribs of the right penalty area.

There is a huge space there.

At this time, it's time to bet on your forward's running ability.

If he sees this gap, he will definitely seek to take advantage of it!

Torres lived up to expectations. He really saw this space. When Hazard passed the ball, T9's figure appeared!

before Arsenal's defense recovered.

Torres raised his right foot and fired furiously!

Oscar changed his rhythm to instigate an attack. Hazard broke through to attract the defense and then completed the final pass. Torres got through the gap and got a shooting opportunity.

Chelsea completed this series of attacks very well.

The cooperation of the three attackers tore a crack in Arsenal's defense.

It almost gave fans at the Emirates Stadium a heart attack.

The whole stadium was filled with exclamations.

The only flaw is

Torres's powerful and heavy shot hit the second floor of the Emirates Stadium and almost gave a die-hard Arsenal fan in the stands behind the goal a concussion.

Mourinho on the sidelines was ready to celebrate.

As a result, after seeing the ball kicked away, Jose Mourinho staggered and almost fell to his knees on the grass.

"Oh oh oh! Torres! Torres took the first shot of the game!"

"What a pity! Hazard's breakthrough was beautiful and his pass was wonderful, but Torres's last shot was really subpar."

He Wei also exclaimed: "Arsenal's defense was almost torn apart by a few passes from Chelsea, but fortunately it was Torres who finished the shot."

After saying this, He Wei realized that his words had offended people - after all, there are still many Torres fans in China.

So he quickly began to try to make up for it: "But Torres also had to complete the shot as soon as possible, because Xhaka and Koscielny had already made up for it. It is understandable that the ball missed in a hurry."

Although Torres did not score the goal, it still shocked the audience.

It seems that the trial phase is over and both sides should show some real skills.

really.

Arsenal quickly launched a wave of attacks to retaliate.

After Cazorla got the ball on the wing, Li Mo and Sanchez approached him and brought the defense over.

Cazorla neither passed it to Li Mo nor to Sanchez, but suddenly kicked the ball into the air and passed it to the left side of Arsenal's offense, in the rib area at the front of the penalty area.

"Kaka!! Kaka caught the ball!"

The Emirates Stadium burst into cheers.

Because the side where Kaka receives the ball is the weak side of Chelsea's defense, defensive players are attracted to the other side by Li Mo and Sanchez.

Kaka got a one-on-one opportunity to face Ivanovic.

As long as he breaks through - no, as long as he can get out of the way of the shooting angle, he can complete the shot!

Kaka stopped the ball and made a fake move to the outside.

Ivanovic was unmoved. He knew that if Kaka wanted to shoot, the best route was inside, and he was stuck inside.

Kaka saw this and dunked the ball directly to the outside.

If he were at his peak, he would definitely choose to rush inside by himself, because his starting speed was very fast at that time.

But now, he also knows about his family affairs.

So there was no forcing.

"Kaka! Break through the bottom!"

Kaka took the ball and took a step towards the baseline. After gaining space, he struggled to sweep the ball towards the back point with his left foot!

"Sanchez!!"

Amidst the exclamations, Sanchez grabbed the back point and completed a shot under the interference of Azpilicueta!

The football was saved by Cech!

"Oh oh oh! Cech! Cech has done a great job!"

The commentators either praised Cech's heroic performance or regretted that Sanchez's shot was saved.

Sanchez himself held his head in his hands, and the camera focused on him.

But soon.

Everyone discovered something was wrong.

After Kaka passed the ball, he sat on the turf and rubbed the hamstring muscles of his left foot with his hands.

His expression was somewhat painful.

The camera quickly focused on Kaka sitting on the ground.

"Is this... injured?!" He Wei was a little surprised.

Referee Marriner also blew the whistle to pause the game and then asked Arsenal's team doctor to come on.

Li Mo, who was closest, also ran over.

"What's wrong?"

he expressed concern.

"It seems to be a strain." Kaka was a little frustrated.

He suffered a muscle strain not long after the game started, and he might even be unable to make it to the Champions League final because of this injury - muscle strain requires at least four weeks to recover.

The team doctor also shook his head after the examination and told Kaka that he could not persist in this game.

Kaka covered his face with his hands when he heard this.

He was holding back his energy and wanted to use his energy in the team's final sprint.

result

"damn it"

Wenger couldn't help but cursed when he saw this scene.

Then he asked assistant coach Bould to arrange for Walcott to warm up.

Kaka's accidental injury gave Arsenal fans a trace of sadness on their faces.

This injury is likely to disrupt Arsenal's plans, and at the same time, it also caused the team to waste a substitution spot early.

Just look at Wenger's expression.

Making a substitution in the 13th minute of the game greatly interfered with his tactical plan.

finally.

Kaka walked out of the field with the help of the team doctor.

Walcott quickly ran onto the court.

"I hope Kaka's injury is not a big problem. After all, if Arsenal can reach the Champions League final, he is the only player in the team who has experience in the Champions League final."

Commentator Andy Gray said with a frown.

Experience is really important at critical moments.

Among Arsenal's players, the only player who has experienced a match like the Champions League final and won the championship is Kaká.

Thirteen minutes into the game, Arsenal was forced to make substitutions.

This has made many people worry about Arsenal's future.

Originally, in such a championship battle, the strength of the two teams was very close.

Therefore, the influence of some X factors can easily cause an imbalance in the balance of the game.

obviously.

Kaka's injury is an X factor.

Chelsea will certainly seize this opportunity to put pressure on Arsenal.

Walcott was rushed into the game and he and Kaká are clearly different types of players.

With a new player, Arsenal will have to make some tactical fine-tuning on the court.

It is during this adjustment process that problems are most likely to arise.

Chelsea fans naturally know this - they are all old fans who understand the football emperor, and they naturally know that the next time is Chelsea's time to launch a fierce attack.

The Chelsea fans in front of the TV were very excited about this. They couldn't wait to see the offensive frenzy that Chelsea would launch next!

However, before that, they had to wait for Arsenal to take this corner kick.

Cazorla went to take a corner kick, he kicked the ball towards the center, and the football was headed out by Terry.

Then it was picked up by Arsenal full-back Monreal on the outside, and Arsenal launched a second attack after the corner kick attack!

Arsenal's offense quickly developed to the front of the penalty area.

The football was passed to Li Mo's feet.

Li Mo stood at the top of the penalty area and the football was falling from the sky.

In this position, he has many options. He can pass back, cross the ball from left to right, or fly the ball with a header.

Gary Cahill also followed.

Because of his previous experience of being passed over by Li Mo, he didn't dare to show off, and just stayed close to Li Mo's back, preventing him from turning around easily.

Li Mo's back hit Gary Cahill.

"So damn difficult."

Li Mo now knows why Chelsea can become a competitor to Arsenal for the championship this season.

Every player on their back line has strong one-on-one defensive capabilities, is also very strong, and is very skilled at covering each other's positions.

This makes it difficult for Li Mo to get a chance.

Gary Cahill stared at Li Mo's feet. He knew from Li Mo's posture that he was going to stop the ball and do it himself!

As for passing the ball out - Gary Cahill still hopes that Li Mo will pass it out, because the threat will not be so great if the ball is not here with Li Mo.

Moreover, Gary Cahill really thought that Li Mo would pass the ball, because it was a corner kick attack, so in the frontcourt, Arsenal's two central defenders were still in Chelsea's penalty area. At this time, they passed the ball Another pass from the wing is also very threatening.

Gary Cahill thinks his judgment is correct.

So he took a step back slightly, so that after Li Mo passed the ball, he could keep a close eye on Li Mo and prevent his forward ball from hitting the top.

Li Mo raised his foot and sank slightly with the falling momentum of the football.

The football did not bounce on the instep of his foot, but stopped firmly on his foot.

This ability to stop the ball amazed many commentators.

The football seemed to be glued to the instep of his foot, falling along his falling foot.

But before the football hit the ground, Li Mo suddenly felt something in his heart. He saw Gary Cahill's movements out of the corner of his eye.

Ever since.

He made the decision decisively.

Just when everyone thought he would stop the ball, he suddenly flicked his right foot to stop the ball!

Gary Cahill bent over and stared at Li Mo's feet. In addition to passing the ball, Li Mo also had the possibility of stopping the ball and turning his back to volley directly.

This is also a scoring method Li Mo often uses.

But he didn't even see the football land!

At this moment, he heard cheers suddenly burst out.

Suddenly.

His heart skipped a beat and he looked up.

But he saw Li Mo turning around!

"Li Mo. Unexpected treatment! Turn around"

Li Mo just flicked the ball up and then turned back.

He didn't use a lot of force, the football didn't fly high, it just flew to the waist and started to fall.

When Li Mo turned around, the football had already begun to fall.

At this moment.

Everyone who saw Li Mo's actions couldn't help but stare.

"This is."

Andy Gray was shocked.

This action

It's obviously a shot!

When a high-altitude ball comes, stop with your right foot, flick it before it hits the ground, turn around and hit the volley directly? !

have to say.

Very imaginative.

But the difficulty is also obvious.

All the commentators and the fans at the scene stretched their necks involuntarily and stared at the penalty area.

Li Mo also turned around and stared at the falling football. The instep of his feet was completely tensed, and the toes of his right foot hit the middle and lower part of the football. At the same time, he also made an upward movement.

Then the football left his toes and flew out.

After the football takes off, it flies into the air first, a very big parabola!

The ball speed is very fast!

But that's when football flew to its highest point.

But suddenly it started to fall.

Then, a pair of flying gloves grazed the post and flew into the goal!

When Li Mo turned around.

Cech's body was already tense.

Like a fully drawn bow.

Then he quickly shot his body in the direction of the ball!

He didn't see how Li Mo kicked the ball.

But he saw Li Mo turn around.

So when Li Mo raised his foot to shoot, Cech also completed the save.

Just when the football drew a parabola like a fallen leaf and fell into the net.

Cech failed to save the ball after all.

This ball, the angle, is so tricky! !

"The goal was scored?!"

Confuse.

That's right.

Andy Gray's first reaction was actually confusion.

The commentators in the stands and the fans in the stands also reacted the same way as him.

One second later.

Everyone reacted.

At that moment when the fans cheered.

The commentators in the commentary box were excited.

"Ahhhhh!! The ball has gone in! The ball has gone in!! Beautiful! So beautiful!!!"

"Oh, God!"

“Incredible!!”

"Incredible goal!"

“Wonderful!!!”

Everyone was exclaiming.

The Emirates Stadium suddenly burst into loud cheers.

"One to zero! One to zero!! Arsenal scored first!"

"Everyone thought that Kaka's injury was the turning point of the game. Chelsea fans also saw a glimmer of hope, but Li Mo stabilized Arsenal's morale with such an imaginative and courageous goal!"

"Beautiful! Beautiful goal!"

Such a goal really subverted people's imagination.

After Kaká was injured and went off the field, Li Mo used such a goal to stabilize the morale of the somewhat worried Arsenal players and fans!

Chelsea, on the other hand, naturally lost the opportunity to put pressure on Arsenal when they were forced to make substitutions - now it was their turn to lose morale.

When the Arsenal players rushed to Li Mo to celebrate.

Chelsea players were a little dumbfounded.

They stared blankly at the football beating inside the goal, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
