Chapter 84: Revenge for Arsenal

"Revenge for Arsenal!"

This is the fastest update before the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final between Blackburn Rovers and Bayern Munich

Originally, it was just a small incident that would not receive much media attention, but Arthur liked this cheering slogan on his Facebook and turned this small thing into a big event!

At this moment, many people think that Blackburn is going to do something "big" at the Rose Theater.

Is it Arthur's "hand slippery"? Whether Blackburn really had such a mind, the outside world did not know before the game.

On the day of Blackburn's v Bayern Munich match, the Rose Theatre caught the attention of football fans around the world, because there was no shortage of stars, no lack of gunpowder, and no shortage of controversial topics.

Before the game even started, the fans were already idle.

In this game, Bayern Munich only rotated one man compared to the first leg, Robben entered the starting lineup, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Mohamed Thiago, De La Red, Salgado were absent due to injury, Fauber, Xavi Garcia, Drenthe, Barrejo and Cordina were not selected for technical reasons, and Huntelaar did not qualify for the Champions League.

With the referee's whistle, the battle between Blackburn and Bayern Munich began!

"Blackburn! Blackburn! ……”

In the silent passage, the crisp sound of shoe spikes and the impact of the floor kept sounding, feeling the heat on the field, all the players who had been prepared were silent, and some people who could not control their emotions were constantly sorting out their jerseys, even if the jerseys on their bodies were already very neatly worn.

Everything is just a clear expression of subconscious restraint and all Blackburn Rovers know very well that a crucial game awaits them.

As Klopp just said, will tomorrow be heaven or hell? Everything is in their own hands!

After the fish came out, when the players came to the passage, the loud and loud shouts set off the Rose Theater into a scorching oven, even though it was the cold spring season of April, but in this warm atmosphere, everyone could still clearly feel the heat flowing from the inside of the body.

Bayern Munich's tee off the ball quickly crossed the halfway line, and Robben just raised his head before he could find his position as a striker, and was blocked by Pogba.

This is not the first time the two have met, and Robben naturally did not underestimate the French midfielder, propping up his left arm on Pogba's body and preparing to launch an all-out attack.

Just as he tossed the football out of the ground, a long thick leg quickly stretched out next to him and shoveled the football out cleanly and fiercely.

Before Robben could understand what was going on, he felt the left side of his body empty, and Pogba, who had been close to each other, had already run past him.

After two or three quick steps to catch up with the football, Pogba saw that the opponent's midfield showed signs of closing towards him, decisively kicked the football, and then flew high and fell towards Neymar on the right.

Facing the football passed by Pogba, Neymar skillfully stretched out his right foot and threw it directly, and the football did not stop, and flew quickly to the front.

Looking at the unexpectedly flying football, Griezmann shook off his legs and slid diagonally towards the air strike between Martinez and Boateng.

The whole figure was like a sharp knife piercing into the Bayern Munich penalty area, tearing through Bayern Munich's defense without a sound.

In fact, this goal is not to say that Martinez and Boateng's defensive ability is not good, but neither of them expected that Neymar could combine stopping the ball and passing so perfectly.

In addition, the game has only started, and the state has not fully adjusted. Martinez and Boateng didn't have a chance to react at all, and they were already far behind Griezmann.

Bayern Munich's two central defenders only felt their heads turn, Griezmann had disappeared without a trace, and by the time they turned their bodies completely, Griezmann had at least thrown them two or three meters away.

"Danger!"

After Griezmann got the football, his speed did not diminish in the slightest, and he took the lead and rushed towards the Bayern Munich penalty area.

All Blackburn Rovers fans quickly got up from their seats, craned their necks and looked nervously at the field, no one expected that their team would create such a rare scoring opportunity less than two minutes into the game.

Even Klopp ran to the sidelines as soon as possible and looked nervously at the field.

Staring at Neuer, who was constantly shaking his arms up and down exaggeratedly in front of him, and his mouth was bluffing and screaming, Griezmann did not have any cowardice in his excited heart, and went straight towards the original destination Earth Gate.

Neuer's tall body swooped down, and when the Blackburn fans were so nervous, Griezmann just picked the ball up lightly, and then the ball rolled slowly and resolutely across the white line under the desperate gaze of the Bayern Munich.

“gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooal!”

The Rose Theatre instantly turned into a carnival party, and the passion swept through all corners of the stadium in an instant.

And after the goal, Griezmann ran to the sidelines, pointed to the lawn under his feet, and screamed loudly!

The atmosphere in the stands was fierce at the same time, and the Blackburn players in the middle of the field also swarmed towards the midfield, and everyone rushed towards Griezmann with excitement. Before they could squeeze the sweat out of their bodies, they were instantly enveloped in happiness, and the huge stimulation urgently needed an outlet to vent out.

Now Blackburn Rovers are 3:1 ahead of Bayern Munich in the big score, which means that if you want not to lose, Bayern Munich must at least score two goals in the case of ensuring that Blackburn does not score again, but how difficult is such a result?

It wasn't until the referee came running over that Griezmann was freed from the clutches of his teammates, his messy hair, crumpled jersey, and the appearance of a beggar who had been looted and swept away.

After a great deal of passion from Blake himself, the race was back on track.

Although the game resumed again, after suffering a huge blow at the beginning, Bayern Munich's momentum has instantly fallen to a trough.

Although the Bayern Munich players knew that in order to advance, they must attack and score, but in the face of the Blackburn players who seemed to have beaten chicken blood, they could only show a helpless wry smile, involuntarily shrunk the defense back, and collectively retreated to their own half. All of a sudden, Bayern Munich's goalkeeper was noisy, and football was flying all over the sky.

While the opponent contracted the defense, the Blackburn players kept in mind Klopp's words before the game, and stood outside the penalty area with the football one by one to draw a bow and shoot arrows, simply omitting the breakthrough and organization, as long as the football reached the feet, no matter who it was, it was a heavy cannon against the gate guarded by Neuer.

However, after all, Neuer is known as the first god of today, and he resisted high, and the whole person turned into an eight-clawed spider, and all the shots were resolved without danger.

Once again, in the face of Harry Kane's header against Martinez, Neuer leaped high and kept the ball firmly between his hands.

Just when the Blackburn players were still secretly resenting another missed opportunity, Neuer quickly ran to the edge of the penalty area and threw the football to Robben, who was already running fast in front.

When besieging their opponents, the Blackburn players forgot that Bayern Munich are also a top team in football like them, and they also have the ability to play defensive counter-attacks with their individual star ability.

"Hurry back to defense!" Seeing that Robben and Lewandowski had quickly rushed towards their second half, and there were only Alderweireld and Phil Jones behind him, Klopp, who was on the sidelines, burst out with foul mouths.

He was still attacking happily just now, but suddenly he was beaten to his own half by the opponent, and Blackburn's players had not yet reacted.

When Arjen Robben and Lewandowski attacked the Blackburn goal with the ball, only Alderweireld and Phil Jones were anxiously stopping their opponents.

However, the two did not risk choosing the strategy of grabbing at the same time, but Phil Jones quickly stepped back and continued to maintain a certain defensive distance from the opponent, while Alderweireld was always ready to wait for the opponent to make a move, and immediately go up to assist.

The limbs swayed rapidly, creating a slippery afterimage, in the eyes of everyone, it was impossible to see Robben's pace at this moment, and Phil Jones, who was robbing, had no good way to stop the Dutch "old" flying man.

After hesitating, Phil Jones suddenly found that the four of them were rapidly approaching the penalty area, and felt the penalty area line not far away, Phil Jones smiled bitterly, gritted his teeth, suddenly accelerated his speed, and hit Robben who was running happily with the ball in front of him.

Robben, who was quickly shaking his legs and rushing towards the Blackburn penalty area with the ball, was still thinking about whether he should share the ball, or simply make a heroic burst and shoot to turn the fate of the entire team into passivity by himself.

But just when Robben was in infinite reverie in his heart, he suddenly felt a strong force crashing from the side front, and before he could understand what was going on, the whole person seemed to be violently hit by a train, waving his limbs off the ground, and throwing it towards the lawn in front of him in embarrassment.

"Tick!" A piercing whistle sounded in a hurry while everyone was stunned!

The referee raced over, stretched out his right hand from his pocket and raised a yellow card high at Phil Jones.

This yellow card is more cost-effective, after all, if Robben is put into the penalty area, then Blackburn is really likely to be successfully counterattacked by the opponent, and stopping this attack is just a yellow card, Blackburn's top central defenders such as Varane and Stones on the bench are waiting to play.

After the free-kick was taken, Alderweireld scrambled for the first point, and the ball quickly returned to Blackburn's side.

However, after Phil Jones's thrilling redemption, the Blackburn players who broke out in a cold sweat also woke up instantly, and no longer had the fearlessness of the menacing momentum just now, and played cautiously to control the ball one by one.

On the other side, Bayern Munich finally relieved itself after some embarrassing defense, but it was still at a disadvantage.

The two teams were hesitating and dwindling to pass the time, Blackburn Rovers were aiming to win, and now their team is 1-0 up, and of course wants to wear it down.

For Bayern Munich, it was terrible to go on with such a drain of time, as they not only had to equalise, but also overtake.

Just when Bayern Munich's attack was about to take off, Blackburn's attack came again!

After Neymar received Bale's ball near the center circle, he made a quick turn and stepped on the football to look at Thiago in front of him.

Ignoring the sweat dripping from the ends of his hair, Neymar stared closely at Thiago's eyes in front of him, his right foot quickly plucked the football, his left foot jumped to the left at the same time, and his right foot quickly crossed the football.

Cycling?

After five or six lightning-fast bicycles, Neymar took advantage of the landing of his right foot, and when everyone thought that he would continue to carry the bicycle, Neymar suddenly lifted the football and did not go around the top of the football, but slammed it on the bottom of the football, and the football unexpectedly flew to the right.

Seeing the football suddenly flying, Thiago just took a step towards the sideline, who knew that after Neymar quickly changed feet, he raised his right foot and blocked the football in mid-air, and the football was knocked back by Neymar again, and flew back to the left.

Deep-fried croquettes!

Neymar's action was very unexpected, Thiago is not good at defense after all, so he could only helplessly watch Neymar break through with football.

In Neymar's dazzling performance, all the Blackburn fans who came to the Rose Theater involuntarily covered their mouths tightly, for fear that a heavy breath would disturb this wonderful scene.

It wasn't until Neymar passed Thiago smoothly that everyone suddenly came out of the water, and collectively screamed loudly!

Pretty!
