Chapter 188: It's easy to score a goal

Why has Quaresma become the center of public opinion again?

Quaresma, since last season, has held the record for almost all goals scored in Champions League matches.

Quaresma scored in each of his four Champions League group games last season, and although he did not score in the first knockout leg against Chelsea, he did score twice in a row on the road.

This season, Quaresma also scored in the first two legs of the group stage.

In other words, in eight out of ten Champions League games he has played in two seasons, only one has not scored.

The goal is horribly efficient!

So, will Quaresma continue to maintain his horrific goalscoring efficiency in the Champions League?

Bookmakers have already started betting on this, and the odds for Quaresma to score are much lower than the odds for Quaresma not to score, which means that bookmakers are extremely optimistic that Quaresma can continue to be efficient.

Quaresma didn't care too much about it, of course he likes to score goals, and if he has the chance, he will try his best, but it all depends on the team winning, and if the team loses, he will not be happy even if he scores more goals.

"It's a shame that you don't play as a striker, otherwise it won't be long before you steal my title as Highbury's top scorer!" This is what Henry said to Quaresma.

When it comes to compliments, Quaresma has always been very natural and open-minded.

However, the reality is that I am afraid that the current Quaresma is not as good as Henry in terms of scoring ability.

The last few seasons should be considered Henry's peak, scoring goals was as easy as drinking water, and it was not until he moved to Barcelona that he began to decline.

Quaresma, on the other hand, is still looking for his own style, and although he has more space on the flanks, he is correspondingly farther away from goal, making it much more difficult to score goals, and far less efficient than scoring in front of goal.

Therefore, in a short period of time, Quaresma has no idea of surpassing Thierry Henry in terms of goals, and even if Quaresma is Arsenal's top scorer so far, he will not be blindly confident.

And he didn't come to compete with Henry for the title of King of Highbury, which is not only an honor, but also a pressure, and he is not ready to lead a team.

Don't look at him in Porto, he is actually considered to have taken Porto, but he is really tired, sometimes he can't take it, and he feels that his psychology is not strong enough, which is also where he needs to hone.

Football is not as simple as just listing a few attributes, even if Quaresma has practiced or even exceeded the attributes in the attribute list, but without a strong heart, at best, he is a top player, it is difficult to call it great!

So, Quaresma also knows that he still has a long way to go.

......

Quaresma was confident that Arsenal would win away from home, but he never expected the goal to come so easily, so suddenly, and so confusingly.

Within a few minutes of the game, the Arsenal formation playing away from home had not yet pressed, and Sparta Prague was down-to-foot at the back, and everything felt so peaceful.

The only one who spoiled the picture was Quaresma, who started his rush again, even if the fans called his rush "sending monkeys to the door", but that didn't stop Quaresma from still enjoying it.

It's just that even Quaresma himself didn't expect that his high position was really meritorious.

Rushing to the opponent's full-back with the ball, the guy was happy when he saw Quaresma coming, and quickly turned on the monkey mode and passed the ball to the central defender.

The central defender who received the ball also wanted to play the game of monkey, and was about to pass the ball to the midfielder in front of him, but suddenly remembered that there was a goalkeeper behind him!

The goalkeeper has worked hard, doing dirty work and tiring work, but there is always no good thing for him, otherwise he will pass it to the goalkeeper and let him feel the happiness of the monkey?

Thinking of this, the central defender directly pulled the ball and turned around, pushing the ball to his own goalkeeper in front of the goal.

Seeing this, Quaresma knew that his opponent meant to make fun of himself, but he was not discouraged at all, stopped the car, turned around and rushed towards the goalkeeper, even if he couldn't grab the ball, it would scare you.

The Sparta Prague goalkeeper didn't grasp the kindness of his team-mates at centre-back, and his eyelids jumped as he watched the ball.

There are so many passing routes around, you just passed it to me, and your head pumped?

stepped forward cautiously, planning to quickly clear the siege with a big kick, otherwise the ball would be a scourge.

Perhaps because he was too careful, the Sparta Prague goalkeeper kicked a big kick under everyone's gaze, did not touch the ball, but let himself lose his balance, fell to the ground in a daze, turned around, and watched the ball roll straight into the goal he was supposed to guard.

What is this operation?

The Spartan Prague fans in the stands covered their faces in disbelief and wanted to cry in despair.

The Sparta Prague players were also dumbfounded, unable to accept the reality of the team falling behind in such a dramatic process, especially the central defender who had just passed the ball to the goalkeeper.

Is this an own goal?

Quaresma laughed so hard that he wanted to somersault, and even now that you all thought of me as a monkey, I would be happy.

Is this a feeding?

Laughing until his stomach hurts, he runs back to his teammates and celebrates the goal with his teammates who still can't believe the pie in the sky.

Arsenal are just ahead, magical and absurd.

Quaresma wanted to ask Sparta Prague's goalkeeper who was so annoyed that he wanted to burrow into the ground, if I passed you one later, would you still miss it?

What was supposed to be a serious game was ruined by a second-cargo defender and a second-duty goalkeeper, and Quaresma suddenly felt so sad.

I really want to get hot!

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been sprinting so much!

It's a pity that the blood can only be saved for the next game!

After such a goal, Sparta Prague had no morale, even if it was a home game, even if the home fans still kept shouting and cheering, but the players were dead and couldn't fight against Arsenal at all.

So much so that after his teammates made a series of jokes, Quaresma was a little reluctant to continue to attack the opponent's goalkeeper, who was suspected of being an undercover Arsenal agent.

But in the end, Quaresma still scored, sympathy is sympathy, but you can't delay yourself in scoring, right?

In the end, Arsenal defeated Sparta Prague by five goals away and won three consecutive Champions League group stage victories.

After the game, Quaresma deliberately ran to the opponent's goalkeeper and exchanged jerseys with him, which was a kind of comfort to the poor goalkeeper, you can't negate all the credit and hard work of the goalkeeper because of a mistake, it's not humane.

It's like Karius...... Uh, well, if you deny, you deny!
