Chapter 105: Offensive Drama (6)
It was at this time that Arsenal also made their first substitution of the day.
The Swede Ljungberg was substituted and Dutch striker Robin van Persie came off the bench.
Seeing Leon staring at the Arsenal players who had just come on the pitch, Banderas looked at the information at hand and said, "Dutchman, Van Persie, twenty-two years old, I don't think this player will pose any threat to us!"
Leon didn't speak, but his heart was vigilant, and no one knew Van Persie better than him.
Van Persie in 2006 has yet to experience the major injury of 2008 and is very fast, often seen on the flanks with the ball.
However, in Li Ang's view, Van Persie's strength is not in shooting, but in stopping and unloading the ball and hitting the goal directly without adjustment, often catching the goalkeeper off guard, and scoring goals without too tricky angles.
Or to put it bluntly, Van Persie feels good when he shoots, and he is able to do it directly when other players need to adjust to complete the shots, which makes him shoot quickly and often difficult for defenders to react in the first place.
"Tell them to be careful of Van Persie!
Banderas glanced at Leon and, although a little puzzled, walked to the sidelines and called out to Samuel to convey the manager's instructions.
***********
Just two minutes later.
Arsenal took the ball, Cesc Fabregas found Henry with a diagonal pass, Henry played to the advantage of speed, controlled the ball before the ball went off the line, and then, in the face of Zanetti's defense, the French star made a gesture to pass the ball to Pires, but the ball was pulled back.
Then, kick in the cross!
Half-high ball, almost knee-high.
The ball arced and flew towards the penalty area at a high speed.
Van Persie made a drop back in the box before Thierry Henry's pass, running to the left and then abruptly turning back.
Samuel hurry up and follow!
Just then, Henry's pass arrived!
Samuel hurriedly pasted on, but was still half a beat too slow.
Van Persie picked up his left calf, did not mean to stop the ball, but directly faced the flying football, and the trend was a volley!
The ball bounced off the back of Inter Milan goalkeeper Cesar and bounced again, this time into the net.
***********
“Gooooooooooooooaaaaaaal!”
"Van Persie!" the Dutchman scored right after he came on the pitch, his second goal in the Champions League this season!"
"Three to four! Arsenal have closed the gap again!"
Arsene Wenger stood up in the dugout and applauded his disciple's goal, and the Frenchman was thrilled and waved his arms vigorously.
"Hell!" Leon scolded, and although he had made arrangements, it was still too late.
Banderas also looked depressed, and then looked at Leon like a celestial person, obviously, Leon knew the characteristics of this player, and the arrangements he made were very targeted, but unfortunately he still couldn't prevent the goal from being conceded.
On the field, Samuel was also a little frustrated, and he finally understood what the coach's arrangement instruction meant. This Dutchman felt so good in front of goal, he shot at the ball, he was just half a beat slow, he didn't keep up, and he lost the ball!
***********
Van Persie's goal is like a shot in the arm for Arsenal!
They saw hope of an equaliser and now there was no time for Arsenal to bother with how many away goals Inter had scored, and they could now do their best to equalise to keep a glimmer of hope alive for the second leg.
This conceded goal made Li Ang angry.
However, that's all, 4-3, they are still ahead, and there is still time to play.
Moreover, Li Ang believes that with the lesson of conceding the goal just now, the players of Inter Milan will have the most intuitive understanding of Van Persie's characteristics, at least, Samuel is unlikely to give Van Persie an easy chance again!
Arsenal saw hope of an equaliser and they poured their way out.
This is a gamble for Arsenal, in fact, replacing Ljungberg, who has a certain ability to fight in midfield, and replacing Van Persie, is a gamble in itself.
***********
Gilberto Silva controlled the ball in midfield, interacting with Cesc Fabregas and then dribbling forward, intending to use his personal breakthrough to open up the void.
Carlos rushed straight over.
Two people collide and the football jumps.
Carlos then grabbed Gilberto... Before Silva, he bent over and got up, took control of the ball at his feet, and swept it past Luka Modric.
"Carlos! Carlos made another successful tackle, he snatched the ball from Gilberto Silva's feet!"
"Well done!" roared in front of the TV, countless Inter fans roared.
After Modric got the ball, he looked ahead, he didn't pass the ball to Mata, who came to pick up, but picked up his right foot and kicked the football directly!
Long passes!
At the front, Adriano and Ronaldo have already launched!
This is a tactic they have practiced in training, and Modric directly launches a long ball attack, which is the simplest, but it is straight. Plug in the forbidden area!
The football flies over Adriano's head!
It looks like Inter Milan is still looking for Adriano for this point!
***********
Colo Toure followed Adriano's footsteps, and the two men jumped up at the same time on the run to fight for the header!
Under the pressure of Toure, Adriano was a little reluctant to top the ball, and it seemed difficult to control the football.
However, this time, Adriano had no intention of stopping the football, he swung his head and tried his best to swing the football forward!
Header ferry!
At the same time, Ronaldo is running, running without hesitation, and the Brazilians only have football in their eyes at this time!
For Ronaldo, he has won the World Cup and has no regrets in the national team honors, but in the club honors, the European Champions Cup title that he has always been looking for seems to be out of reach, and he has not even experienced the final stage of the Champions League!
And now, this game, this Champions League semi-final, for Ronaldo, is his Champions League final preview!
No one could stop me from making my way to the final stage!
***********
Ronaldo is racing towards football!
Many of Arsenal's players were left behind him, and he made a splash of water, and three Arsenal players behind him pounced on him like crazy.
In front of him is football, and there is an interceptor, the lagging central defender Senderos!
"Stop him, stop him!" Wenger's cry on the sidelines sounded so weak.
With a slam of the brakes, Ronaldo stopped, the ball fell at the right time, and the chest was just right to stop the ball at his feet.
Then, Ronaldo starts again!
Sendros looked at that Brazilian!
Look at the man nicknamed 'Alien'!
His heart suddenly beat a little drum, a little nervous, he had no confidence for this interception!
Arsene Wenger had previously arranged for him to keep an eye on Ronaldo, and he thought he was out of Adriano's nightmare, but at this moment, facing Ronaldo, the young Swiss realized that he needed to face another terrifying demon king at this moment!
Sendros gritted his teeth and waited!
***********
Dribbling at high speed!
Left foot, right foot, skimming over the soccer ball in a row!
"Pedal bike!"
"Ronnie!"
The narrator is high - the tide is up.
Faced with the Brazilian's swaying feet like Italian macaroni, Sendros felt like his eyes were going to be dizzy, which foot was it?!
Sendros can only swing along!
Sway!
Then, he found that his center of gravity was unstable!
The Brazilian man named Ronaldo plundered like a lightning speed, leaving Sendros with an unstable center of gravity and falling to the ground!
At this moment, Highbury Stadium suddenly fell into an eerie silence!
The Arsenal fans seemed so frightened that they even forgot to boo!
Inter fans also held their breath and stared inside the stadium!
On the sidelines, everyone on the Inter Milan coach's bench and bench, including Leon, stood up and looked at Inter No. 9!
Look at that Brazilian player called Ronaldo!!
***********
Ronaldo dribbles into the box!
Now, there are only Arsenal goalkeeper Lehmann and the goal behind him in front of him!
Shot!
Concentrate the strength of your whole body on your right foot and kick the soccer ball hard!
Goalkeeper Lehmann raised his right hand in vain, then fell to his knees and lowered his head high, he could not do anything about the ball!
"Champions League! No one can stop me!!" Ronaldo gritted his teeth, and the Brazilian's expression was a little hideous at this time!
"Goooooooa
Highbury Field, instant silence!
Inside the stadium, the man named Ronaldo started running, he ran to the away team fan stand, turned his back, and pointed to the shirt number and name behind him with both hands!
9!
Ronaldo!
There is only one Ronaldo in the world!
