Chapter 437: Chamberlain and Gibbs

'Offside, Eden Hazard offside!'

"Hey, he's offside, this goal shouldn't be counted, the referee is wrong!"

Wenger, who was very anxious, had already rushed to Li Xuan's side, and the spittle stars were about to spray on Li Xuan's face, showing an extremely dissatisfied attitude.

Li Xuan first skillfully avoided Wenger's excitement, and then immediately shook his head with a smile and said, "Sorry, this ball was not offside just now, it was a good ball." ”

Even in my heart, there is a little pity, and I feel unwilling and helpless for Arsenal. But the fairness of the profession still made Li Xuan very clear and businesslike, without the slightest hesitation.

"With such a counterattack, how could Hazard not be offside. The referee, Mr. Marriner, must have failed to see clearly, and the linesman was a few steps behind, so the goal could not be counted. ”

However, Coach Wenger, who scored a goal by a sudden counterattack, was still a little unable to accept the reality, and once again had to argue with Li Xuan, looking even more anxious. The wrinkles on his entire face were almost crowded together in a hurry, and he had completely lost his former politeness.

But Li Xuan still shook his head politely, and explained seriously and professionally: "No, the moment Hazard got the ball, he was not offside at all, the referee and the linesman saw it very accurately, and I also saw it." It's definitely a good ball, there's nothing to say, please go back. ”

The Chelsea counter-attack goal just now really had nothing to blame in the whole process, and it was a textbook classic counter-attack. When Hazard received the ball, the entire Arsenal players did not react, and the offside position was a failure, which was indeed a very beautiful goal.

Li Xuan doesn't need to play back through his magical ability, just with so many years of personal experience, he will not make mistakes.

The reason why Coach Wenger is so excited and unwilling is obviously that he has never won against Mourinho for a long time, but this time he accidentally lost the ball under the opening attack, and he was extremely indignant and unwilling to accept this cruel reality.

Just as Li Xuan was on Li Xuan's side, he continued to stretch out his hand to signal that Coach Wenger could go back, and Mourinho, who had already completed the goal celebration, finally discovered Wenger's situation here.

Mourinho, who was afraid of being treated unfairly, immediately stepped forward and said loudly: "The goal just now is no problem, ArsΓ¨na, don't deliberately interfere with the referee's train of thought." ”

Mourinho may not be so gossipy, and he may not be clear about Li Xuan's identity as a die-hard Arsenal fan. But he still used this way to give today's fourth official Li Xuan a little reminder and pressure, and seek a good refereeing environment.

Of course, there is more meaning in his words, and he is still deliberately going to Wenger, sarcastically saying that Wenger can't afford to lose.

Wenger was already very indignant, and when he saw this, he immediately responded to Mourinho with a little anger: "Hmph, it's only been a short time coming, we will definitely win it back!" ”

Ignoring Mourinho's smiling show-offs, Wenger stepped aside even more depressed.

Seeing this, Mourinho continued to smile subconsciously, smiled at Li Xuan again, shook his suit, and sat back in his Chelsea coach's seat in a relaxed mood.

Li Xuan simply witnessed the movements of the two head coaches around him, and suddenly felt that even if he was the fourth official tonight, it seemed that he would not be too easy in the future.

On the pitch, the Arsenal players, who had quickly fallen behind by one goal, obviously began to panic and anxious in an instant.

Although some of them still blindly continue to press and bombard, trying to equalize quickly, they still have no precision goals, and it is relatively difficult to break through Chelsea's many blockades.

And several Arsenal defenders, in such a situation of being beaten and conceded on the counter-attack, instead want to retreat and do not want to become a shameful background when Chelsea suddenly counterattacked.

As a result, the mentality of the players on the field of Arsenal quickly became a little inconsistent, almost causing the lineup to play in the field, which was immediately a little disjointed.

At the same time, Chelsea, which is also a strong team, immediately caught the new problems and weaknesses in Arsenal's style of play, and took the initiative to start a comprehensive counterattack, competing for the midfield, but to create some problems in the Arsenal half.

Doing so can not only suppress Arsenal's attack, but also suppress Arsenal's momentum, so that Arsenal has no way to play a timely attack, causing the players' mentality to be further unbalanced and anxious.

The wave of Chelsea players led by Hazard are all tough in terms of playing style, hard bridges and hard horses, but their skills are not bad, which quickly made the Arsenal players feel a little uncomfortable, and there were a lot more fouls.

Then, when Arsenal's attack was destroyed by Chelsea again, and Hazard took the ball back to the front of the Arsenal penalty area, Arsenal's young player Oxlade-Chamberlain suddenly had a hot brain, and under the irritability, he swept Hazard out of the penalty area with one kick!

Foul!

As Li Xuan expected, referee Marriner immediately blew Arsenal's Oxlade-Chamberlain for a foul and hurriedly gave Chelsea a free kick.

This free-kick is dangerous, I wonder if Arsenal's defense can hold it?

Li Xuan guessed with some curiosity again, and more seriously noticed all the scenes in the Arsenal penalty area when Hazard was about to take a free kick, and paid attention to any fouls or accidents.

Before taking the free kick, Hazard made some gestures and preparations, and then suddenly made a very wonderful curling kick, and went straight to the right corner of the Arsenal penalty area!

It's too late, it's too soon!

I saw a player wearing an Arsenal jersey who happened to appear in that key position, and then subconsciously stretched out his hand and directly blocked the football again!

Hey, no, that's not a goalkeeper?

Li Xuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief for Arsenal, but he immediately discovered a major anomaly on the field. The player who appeared on the side of the goal and blocked Hazard's must-score with his hands was not goalkeeper Szczesny, but Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain!

Oh my God, this kid is really world-class from the neck down, this reaction is too stupid, why deliberately handball?

Li Xuan had already thought of his imminent ending, as well as Arsenal's worse situation of one less man, and couldn't help but subconsciously turn around again to look at Coach Wenger who jumped up from the chair again.

However, before Li Xuan could retract his gaze, the onlookers at the entire game scene suddenly burst into an uproar!

What's the matter, deliberately handball was sent off with a straight red card, and there was no problem?

Li Xuan also looked at the stadium again, but found that the red card raised by referee Andre Marriner was not Oxlade-Chamberlain, but Arsenal fullback Gibbs!

What's going on here?

Li Xuan, who was very aware of the situation on the scene just now, was immediately a little confused at this time, why did the referee give Gibbs a red card instead of Chamberlain? 10
