My uncle is Inzaghi

Chapter 225 Cristiano!

The almost counterattack by Arsenal allowed the Real Madrid players to calm down a bit.

At the same time, under Ancelotti's pressure, they finally recovered their opening momentum and returned to defense.

but

Arsenal made changes at this time.

It is naturally impossible to win the championship just by relying on defense.

Therefore, Arsenal has an offensive plan.

After seeing Real Madrid take back, Wenger immediately realized this was an opportunity: Real Madrid's players wanted to press the attack, but they were forced to take back after attacking for a while. Their morale must have been affected.

And now there are more than ten minutes left in the first half of the game.

Arsenal can definitely take advantage of this opportunity and launch an attack.

Ever since, Wenger came to the sidelines and put his hands in his pockets.

He didn't appear to be doing anything.

But the Arsenal players on the field knew what they were going to do when they saw Wenger coming to the sidelines.

The head coach thinks the time has come to attack.

That being the case

Then do it!

As Real Madrid retreated, they suddenly found that their opponents had pressed forward across the board.

Arsenal are pressing high!

"Arsenal is pressing!"

The commentators cheered up.

Right now.

They saw Li Mo use his strong body to give Modric a counterattack, and then took the ball away after the opponent's body staggered.

Then, when Modric was about to counterattack, he hit the opponent with his back.

The physical confrontation between the two directly knocked Modric to pieces.

Modric retreated to the backcourt to catch the ball and organize, but as a result, he was targeted by Arsenal players.

The Croatian's physical confrontation ability is actually not bad.

But it also depends on who you are comparing it to.

Compared with Li Mobi, his physical confrontation ability is indeed not very good.

So this time Li Mo bullied Modric completely with his body.

But he doesn't think there's anything wrong with using his body to bully Modric.

After completing the steal.

Li Mo dribbled the ball forward, made a fake pass when facing Alonso, quickly adjusted his pace, and passed Alonso with his rhythm.

Then he dribbled the ball forward in a diagonal direction, attracted several Real Madrid defensive players to approach him, and immediately passed the ball between the people.

What he found was Sanchez who was diagonally entering the penalty area at high speed on the weak side.

The scalpel-like pass happened to be in Sanchez's path, and Sanchez took the ball into the penalty area without slowing down.

At the critical moment, center back Pepe blocked Sanchez's inward shot.

Forcing Sanchez to slow down.

However, Sanchez's slowing down does not mean that Arsenal's offensive threat is reduced.

After completing the pass, Li Mo immediately moved forward to participate in the offense and ran out of space to receive the ball.

Sanchez immediately passed the ball in an inverted triangle.

This forced Ramos, who was originally preparing to double-team with Pepe to steal the ball, to turn back and run.

At the crucial moment.

Ramos suddenly stretched out his kick and blocked the ball.

But Li Mo, who was going straight forward, suddenly turned back! !

This was completely beyond the expectations of all defensive players.

Whether it was Ramos's erroneous blocking of the ball.

Or was it Li Mo's sudden turn back.

It was as if Li Mo had known for a long time that the ball would be blocked.

He ran onto the football line that was blocked by Ramos at the first opportunity.

Just swing your foot and pass the ball!

Because Li Mo found that he had no way to shoot.

Ramos lay in front of him to block all routes, but he could kick the ball up.

But the mid-air ball is difficult to threaten Casillas.

So, Li Mo faked the shot and passed the real shot.

The ball was sent to the feet of Sanchez who was still in the penalty area.

Sanchez takes a decisive step and shoots! !

But this shot was still a little bit higher!

The football hit the crossbar and popped out of the goal!

"Sanchez shoots!! It's too high!! Arsenal missed a great opportunity!"

The commentator of Corbett Radio frowned: "Arsenal suddenly changed their game rhythm, and now they are pressing forward to attack."

The camera quickly showed Ancelotti on the sidelines.

There was no nervousness on Ancelotti's face, he even began to look forward to it.

Looking forward to Real Madrid's counterattack.

But soon, the expectation on his face disappeared.

because

Arsenal's offensive is quite fierce!

Three minutes later.

Arsenal's attack is back with a bang.

Arteta sent a through ball in the midfield and found Li Mo who was running diagonally in the frontcourt.

Facing this pass.

Real Madrid is clearly ready.

First, Khedira took the lead and got stuck in Li Mo's path. As long as Li Mo caught the ball, he would hit him.

Don't talk about passing the ball then.

It's difficult to maintain possession of the ball.

But Li Mo was about to hit Khedira at the moment.

He took the lead and poked the ball towards the center with his toes!

At the same time, he collided with Khedira and the two fell to the ground.

But the football has been passed to Cazorla by Li Mo!

Cazorla, who was given an extremely loose shooting opportunity, did not hesitate.

Directly shot with a curve ball!

The football goes straight to the upper right corner of the goal! !

"Cazorla!!"

to the exclamations of the commentators.

Casillas jumped up almost instinctively, raised his arm, and saved the ball from the baseline!

"Casillas!!! Ooooh! Casillas!! He saved Real Madrid! Great shot! Great save!!"

"Arsenal got consecutive opportunities to threaten Real Madrid's goal! After a dull opening period, Arsenal began to try to attack! They quickly showed their strong offensive capabilities. After all, they were completely destroying the semi-finals. Barcelona wasted money..."

He Wei said excitedly.

"The key is to seize the opportunity!" Xu Yang said with a bit of worry in his tone.

In these minutes, Arsenal had two great chances.

But I couldn't grasp any of them.

If Arsenal can score one now, the situation will be very different.

But He Wei was right.

Real Madrid was at a disadvantage during this period.

Arsenal have more threatening attacks than Real Madrid.

This made Real Madrid fans in front of the TV and at the scene quite anxious.

They can only hope that Real Madrid's players can respond and use offense to suppress Arsenal's momentum.

But Arsenal's offense doesn't seem to be weakening.

They continued their attack.

Monreal's corner kick went into the penalty area.

Ramos jumped high and headed the ball away.

The football fell to Cazorla's feet on the outside.

Cazorla stops the ball to observe.

Then the ball was transferred to the right wing.

It went to the feet of Monreal, who had just taken a corner kick.

Monreal received the ball unmarked.

This caused Real Madrid's players, who had planned to press out quickly, to shrink again.

Arsenal players who were worried about being unmarked behind them had an opportunity to take advantage.

If Monreal chooses to cross the ball, it will not be offside.

As a result, Real Madrid hurriedly changed from a state of preparing to attack to a state of defense.

This hasty switch between offense and defense is the most likely to cause problems.

This is the kind of opportunity Arsenal seizes.

Monreal took the ball one step down and then made a cross.

He didn't pass the ball in the air, but the ground ball was swept towards the goal.

This kind of pass is very dangerous. Anyone who touches it on this line may knock the ball into the goal.

Li Mo attracted everyone's attention.

No one noticed that the full-back Sagna on the other side had already inserted it at high speed!

When he shot, he was already on the sideline of the small penalty area!

Sagna's shooting does not pay attention to any technical content.

Just pump hard!

Looking forward to a miracle!

However, this powerful and heavy shot was still a little too straight!

This gave Casillas a chance to save.

He made another world-class save.

The football was blocked by his feet and missed the baseline.

"Casillas!! What a great save! Amazing! Amazing!! He saved Real Madrid!!!"

the Corbe radio commentator chanted.

Real Madrid fans were chanting "Holy Cassidy".

"Arsenal created a great threat in front of the goal, but it was Saint Casillas standing in front of Real Madrid!"

The commentators exclaimed and praised Casillas' performance.

Cassie, who was wearing the Real Madrid captain's armband, got up from the ground and was hugged by Real Madrid players in the penalty area.

They know what these two key saves from Casillas really mean! !

Ancelotti's heart stopped on the sidelines.

After seeing Cassie save the ball, the Italian coach breathed a sigh of relief.

"Look at Cassie's performance. Mourinho actually abandoned him last season."

Spanish commentators are still a little worried about Casillas sitting on the bench for half the season last season.

"However, Real Madrid can't just count on Casillas' performance. They must turn the situation around on the court and get the rhythm of the game back!"

Everyone knows this.

But when Real Madrid took the initiative to retreat, their momentum was already at a disadvantage.

It's not easy to regain the momentum for a while.

They can only shrink their defense now.

Avoid losing the ball.

The only good news is.

There was little time left in the first half.

But Arsenal's offensive became even more fierce.

Thirty-eight minutes of game.

Cazorla suddenly chose to advance with the ball and caused a foul in the frontcourt.

Then Li Mo came to take a free kick!

The ball hit the post with a thud, sending all Real Madrid supporters almost into cardiac arrest.

"Li Mo!!! Ahhhhhh!!!"

"Post!! The post rejected his free kick!!!"

"What a pity! Real Madrid's luck in this game is quite good!!!"

The commentator of Real Madrid Radio was particularly excited: "The pillar! The pillar helped Real Madrid!! Luck is on our side!!"

football match.

Luck is also very important.

Real Madrid is passive though.

But now it seems they are lucky.

Li Mo originally planned to celebrate the goal, but he could only watch helplessly as the football was blocked by the post.

"sweet!"

Li Mo lowered his head and cursed, then spat, with a look of regret on his face.

Luck blocked Li Mo's shot.

But it couldn't stop Arsenal's continued attack.

Two minutes later.

Arsenal's attack is back with a bang.

The football was moved to the right wing.

Sagna received the ball near the baseline and passed.

The football was passed in an inverted triangle close to the ground and reached the top of the penalty area.

Li Mo pushed the ball directly from the top of the penalty area without stopping.

The shot was sudden.

Everyone thought Li Mo would stop the ball and then shoot from an angle.

Unexpectedly, he ejaculated directly.

The football also plays with a pretty good angle and ball speed.

But Casillas was completely out of shape.

He moved ahead of time to seal the line.

He pounced on the football and pinned the football under him, defuse the attack.

"Li Mo's shot!!"

He Wei shouted.

But then.

He sighed: "Casillas! Still Casillas!!"

"Casillas was simply amazing in this game!"

Arsenal's continuous onslaught was rejected by Casillas.

His outstanding performance also inspired Real Madrid players.

Their confidence also began to rise.

Facing Arsenal's onslaught, they also began to respond.

Finally in the 43rd minute of the game.

Real Madrid launched an attack.

Marcelo's pass on the left forced Walcott to foul.

Real Madrid is awarded a free kick near the touchline.

Modric took the free kick and sent the ball into the penalty area.

The football flies high towards the goal.

Cristiano Ronaldo squeezed away Koscielny and hit the goal!

The football quickly changed direction and flew towards the goal.

Szczesny made a very good save this time.

He leaped up and stretched out his arm to block the ball over the crossbar.

"Szczesny!! World class save!"

"After Casillas's consecutive performances, Szczesny was not alone and gave a god-level performance!"

Szczesny was able to save the header from close range.

Ronaldo is also incredible.

After he landed, he looked at the football that flew out of the baseline and hit the billboard behind him, and he didn't know what he should say.

But he managed to get a corner kick for Real Madrid.

Modric took the corner kick and flew it backwards.

This time it was Pepe who headed the ball.

His header also failed to create any threat.

The top flew away.

But even so.

The Real Madrid fans present were also very excited.

After being suppressed by Arsenal for more than ten consecutive minutes.

Real Madrid finally started to attack!

"Arsenal has failed to score in consecutive attacks before. I think this may plant a time bomb for this game. As the saying goes, wasting opportunities will be punished!"

He Ping said with some worry.

However, as soon as he said this, many Arsenal supporters criticized him angrily.

But in fact this concern is not unreasonable.

At least as Real Madrid recovered, Arsenal failed to create any good opportunities next.

In the next few minutes, the two sides started a tug of war in the midfield.

The game time quickly passed in such a see-saw.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, neither side scored a goal, and the two sides entered the halftime break with a score of zero to zero.

"Although the opening stage was a bit dull, after some testing, both sides still created a lot of exciting scenes in the second half of the first half!"

He Wei and others sitting in the commentary box all let out a long sigh.

"It's a pity that no goal was scored. Arsenal wasted too many opportunities."

Xu Yang added from the side.

During halftime.

Both teams made tactical adjustments in unison.

After a trial in the first half, both sides had to show their true skills in the second half.

The second half of the game is the real test.

Fifteen minutes passed quickly.

After the start of the second half, the rhythm of the game changed from the lukewarm start of the first half. Both sides increased the intensity of the game as soon as they started.

Both sides started to work hard on the offensive end!

Arsenal took the lead in attacking, with Cazorla taking a free kick in the frontcourt.

The football was passed into the penalty area, Li Mo headed the ball to the front point, Walcott volleyed the ball, but the football was blocked by Casey!

Two minutes later.

Real Madrid counterattacked quickly.

Di Maria caught the ball in the center circle and turned around to dribble the ball forward.

Arsenal was in an offensive state before. The players in the frontcourt had no time to come back, and there were only three defensive players behind!

Real Madrid's frontcourt attacking trident.

Ronaldo, Benzema, and Di Maria all fired three arrows.

On Arsenal's side, Sagna has already stepped forward to assist. The only people standing in front of them are two center backs Koscielny and Mertesacker, plus left back Monreal.

Arsenal is in an unfavorable situation with three defenses.

At this time, the closest player to Di Maria was Koscielny, who was fighting and retreating. It was very difficult for the tall Koscielny to defend a nimble player like Di Maria alone, so he did not dare to go up. Grab, you can only fight and retreat, waiting for the support of your teammates!

Di Maria knew this too, so he kept accelerating towards Koscielny.

As long as the opponent attacks, he is confident that he can get rid of the opponent with his foot skills, but if he keeps retreating

That would be within his shooting range!

He has already brought the ball to the left side of the penalty area line.

He took a step inside with the ball, ready to shoot! ! !

"Di Maria!!!"

the commentators exclaimed.

Di Maria's personal ability is very strong, no one dares to underestimate him, and the Argentinian can often perform very well in some key games. He is a big scene player.

Mertesacker immediately rushed forward to block Di Maria's shot angle.

But at this moment.

Di Maria's left foot, which looked like he was going to shoot hard, suddenly turned into a pass!

The football passed over Mertesacker's head

And because Mertesacker lost his defensive position due to the attack, Ronaldo, who was originally being marked by him, was left open.

Monreal is in position though.

But when it comes to headers, Monreal is really no match for Ronaldo.

Ronaldo faced the football passed by Di Maria, shook his head and headed the ball towards the goal! !

The ball was very close and aimed at breaking through Szczesny's defence.

Cristiano Ronaldo specifically hit the ball, and at a very tricky angle! !

Faced with such a header, Szczesny could only watch the ball and sigh.

"Cristiano."

the commentators chanted.

"Ronaldo!!!"

In the stands of the Stadium of Light, Real Madrid fans chanted in unison.

Real Madrid scored first.

The situation is unprecedentedly unfavorable for Arsenal
