Chapter 396: Undefeated and Undefeated, Not Winning the Championship

Arsenal, which was already at a disadvantage in the score, was at a comprehensive disadvantage after Henry's fake fall, and several core players didn't even dare to do too much when defending, for fear that one would be sent off if he was not careful, and there was really no hope of equalizing at that time.

However, reality forced them to play with their lives, and this score was definitely not a result they were willing to accept.

The situation was so favourable for Notts County that they didn't need to be too aggressive when they got the chances, they just had to kill time at the back, and they won anyway as long as they dragged on until the end of the game.

Arsenal are helpless about Notts County's style of play, but there is nothing they can do, but there is no football rule that says that the leading side cannot fall at the back.

As a representative of technical flow football in the Premier League, perhaps the small skills at the feet may not be the best, but in terms of passing the ball, Notts County absolutely crowns the Premier League, if they are determined to fall in the backfield, anyone will be uncomfortable.

The helpless Wenger can only let the team press all the way and press through the half, otherwise Notts County can really be consumed until the end of the game.

Of course, the effect of this may not be good, the gap behind them is used by Notts County, and they may concede another goal at any time, but Arsenal has no other way, who calls them behind!

Seeing this situation, Loew walked back to the dugout slowly, knowing that if there were no accidents, the big picture was decided!

The Notts County fans in the stands were also rejoicing, they could all read the game, Arsenal were cornered and the victory was within reach.

But just when everyone thought that the game was going to end with this result, the real accident happened!

Several defenders made quick back-to-foot passes at the back, and because of Arsenal's pressing, they had to be vigilant and increase the speed of their passes to avoid the press.

However, at this time, there was an accident in the link where there was never a mistake.

The players were in a non-stop running state for most of the game, especially the strangulation between the two sides in the midfield, which consumed a lot of physical energy, and it was not surprising that the physical condition was in trouble at the end of the game.

Leiton-Baines faced Ljungberg's ferocious pressing, the ball passed to Westerman was a little powerful, and there were some problems with the handling of the German central defender when he stopped the ball, Henry suddenly came out like an arrow, cut off the ball at Westerman's feet, and went directly into the penalty area, forming a single knife trend.

Diego López was shocked and hurriedly abandoned the goal, blocking Henry's shot angle, and doing everything he could to protect the goal.

But how could a striker like Thierry Henry waste such an opportunity, with a light shake to get rid of Diego López's block, and then push it into the net.

Carvalho desperately chased back, desperately tackling at the goal line, but only shoveled the ball into the goal, but he was powerless.

No one expected that the good situation of Notts County would be ruined by a mistake of their own.

When Henry frantically celebrated the goal, Westman and Leiton-Baines seemed to be drained of their strength and sat on the ground, they knew that because of their mistakes, I am afraid that the three points that the team got will be gone, and they have become the sinners of the team, you know, this is a game about 6 points, if they really lose the league championship because they didn't get three points, I'm afraid they will blame themselves for the rest of their lives.

The other Notts County players also felt very frustrated, the game was about to end, but there was such a thing, it was quite a wretch, and the problem was their own people, so they didn't even have a place to vent their anger.

After waiting for the game to resume, the players on the field of Notts County completely pointed the finger at Arsenal, and they wanted to beat them again, and they couldn't even bother to defend.

And Arsenal naturally knew that there was no need to fight hard with Notts County at this time, and all the players retreated to defend, and their only goal was to drag it out until the end of the game.

At the end of the regular game time, the stoppage time sign raised by the fourth official made Wenger jump directly, because it was actually a very rare 6 minutes, even if some time was wasted because of Henry's fake fall, there would not be such a long stoppage time!

At that moment, the name Ferguson moment came to his mind, could it be that Notts County should have the same preferential treatment?

Even though Arsene Wenger protested in every possible way because of his dissatisfaction, the referee remained indifferent, and the Arsenal goal on the field was like a small sampan in the sea, swaying in the wind and threatening to tip over at any time.

However, Arsenal's stubborn will kept them to the end, and with Alonso's long-range shot over the crossbar and the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Notts County and Arsenal were tied, and neither could take advantage of the two legs.

Alonso put his arms around Layton Baines, who was already ruddy, to Westerman, who was already lying on the ground with his eyes blank, and comforted the two teammates who had fallen into infinite self-blame.

Loew also went into the field to comfort his disciples, and also led the players to the sidelines to thank the fans.

Although Notts County lost a good game in the last minute due to their own mistakes, the result of the draw was acceptable for Notts County, after all, they have a clear lead in the league, and there is no chance for their opponents to catch up in the two legs, as long as they don't make too many mistakes in the future, then the league title is in their pocket.

Even if they don't beat Arsenal in two legs, there is no rule that if you can't beat Arsenal, you can't lift the trophy.

Arsenal are well known and Notts County were able to dominate both legs, which was good enough.

David didn't think much about it, sometimes beating an opponent is not necessarily the best outcome.

Just imagine, Arsenal has won the title undefeated this season in history, and judging from Arsenal's current stable form, it is still very possible to achieve an unbeaten season.

But even if the season is unbeaten, with the emergence of Notts County, Arsenal's unbeaten season has become useless, because Notts County has won more games than Arsenal.

If such a good result of unbeaten season cannot win the title, what a shadow will Arsenal have in their hearts!

I have to admit that David's bad taste is here again!

Anyway, this season Arsenal is definitely going to be a tragedy, and it is definitely not something that can be changed by two draws. (To be continued.) )
