Chapter 617: Simeone rolls her eyes

The second half of the game begins.

Simeone made on-the-spot adjustments. Replace Kolasinac and bring on Walcott.

Theo Walcott used to be the fastest man in the entire Premier League. At the age of 33, he is no longer in the limelight.

Replace a defender and bring on a winger. Crazy Simeone, it's all or nothing! This puzzled Dunphy, the big-mouthed commentator: "Is Simeone crazy?" Changing formation to 334? It's too early to give it a go, right? Walcott is recovering from a serious injury, and his status is still unknown! ”

Fat Bob said: "Simeone has been known for his bold substitutions on the pitch during his coaching career. The media often said that Simeone's substitution style was similar to that of the gambler Ferguson Old Lord. When Atletico drew at the beginning, Simeone would always substitute attacking players for hand-to-hand combat. ”

After Walcott came on, Coventry's defensive pressure increased dramatically!

Walcott is the man who once ran 10.3 seconds in 100 meters! Even if he is old now, the tiger is still there!

He broke through twice on the right side of Coventry, shocking the fans at Ricoh Stadium in a cold sweat.

Arsenal will not tolerate a loss to the "weakest team in the Premier League"! They pressed it hard. For a while, there was a lot of noise in the penalty area of Coventry.

The Gunners' tidal wave of attacks finally came to fruition in the 65th minute!

Walcoat gets the ball on the right! Big foot to the ball, using the speed to eat the Papa who defended him closely.

Bottom cross!

The ball flew into the Coventry penalty area.

Wilshere got the ball! Kick the door! The ball hit Zhao Kaixuan's body and bounced back into the penalty area.

Ozil falls to the ground and stabs! The ball flew straight to the right side of the Coventry goal.

Goalkeeper Billy flies to the side! Block the ball!

At the critical moment, the 31-year-old Lacazette made a contribution! He scored in front of goal! The ball is in! 1:1! Arsenal equalised!

"Yay~" Simone was ecstatic, the expression on his face distorted with excitement.

See? The substitution of labor and management is very witty! It was Walcott's breakthrough that created this opportunity!

Labor and management want to build a great cause in the Premier League! Let those stupid forks at the top of Atletico Madrid see what a stupid decision it was to kick me out of the Sheets Army!

On the other end of the dugout, Eda was unusually calm. In his opinion, conceding a goal is a normal thing. After all, the lads on the Coventry back line are still very tender.

After conceding the goal, the Ricoh Stadium fans inspired the boys of the Sky Blue Army with the song "Onward, Coventry".

After Arsenal's goal, the attack suddenly slowed down. Because the full 65 minutes of attacking at the expense of physical strength has made the Gunners' veterans physically strained!

Simeone knew it was time to slow down. Although Walcott's speed is still there, Ozil, Karazet, and Iwobi are obviously unable to keep up with him.

The two sides entered a positional battle.

Simeone overlooked one such thing. During the positional war, the old lieutenant Liu Yun is simply a 10-million-ton hydrogen bomb that will explode at any time!

The positional battle between the two sides lasted a full 15 minutes.

In the 80th minute, the old lieutenant Liu Yun took the ball on the right side of the penalty area!

He suddenly accelerated and shook Koscielny, Elneny, and Mustafi in succession.

The old lieutenant has broken through to the bottom line position in the penalty area!

At the same time, Tieta Manla, "Mr. Paper" Bai Rifeng have already broken into the forbidden area to meet Liu Yun.

Liu Yun's best option is to pick up the ball and pass it to Manla in the middle or Bai Rifeng.

A thought flashed through the old lieutenant's mind.

He chose to hit the door with his feet! Knock on the door at a zero degree angle!

The ball made a strange arc past the fly-headed Cech and flew straight into the top left corner of the Arsenal goal!

The ball is in! 2:1! Coventry takes the lead again!

"It's not scientific!" The big-mouthed Dunphy blurted out.

Fat Bob also exclaimed: "The trajectory of this ball... 0 degree angle, such a large arc. . . It's like magic! The old lieutenant is simply a magician of antiquity! ”

The big-mouthed Dunphy said excitedly: "For Arsenal, the old lieutenant is not a magician, he is a devil!" Goal from a zero degree angle! It reminds me of Van Basten's zero-degree goal in the UEFA Euro '88 final. ”

Fat Bob said: "The two goals are different again. Van Basten's goal was a volley. The old lieutenant hung a full moon scimitar at a zero degree angle! ”

"There was a big fat pig named Shute who stood on the haystack every day. Oh, he wants to fly into the sky. Everyone else laughed at him, he just stared at the sky。。。。。 ”

The singing of "Pig Flying to the Sky" echoed over the Ricoh Stadium.

Coventry, which is recognized as the weakest team in the Premier League, is the pig that "fantasizes" flying into the sky! The old lieutenant made the "fantasy" a reality!

Who says Coventry are the weakest in the Premier League? Who's to say Coventry is likely not to pick up a point in the first eight rounds? Who says you can't win anything with a bunch of kids? Who says Coventry should fight for relegation?

We drew Manchester United, beat Chelsea and are now at home to Arsenal, who are as steady as a dog!

Old lieutenant-style machine gun strafing, appearing in the Premier League for the third time this season!

The big-mouthed Dunphy shouted, "Two goals!" The old lieutenant is forever young! Always on a hot scoresheet! On the scorer list, he is already tied for first place with Lewandowski and Qu Bai! I bet the old lieutenant is one of the top contenders for the Premier League Golden Boot this season! ”

There are 10 minutes left in the game.

I don't know who started it. The audience even shouted: "3:1! 3:1! 3:1! ”

Before the start of this game, no one can expect that the youth army Coventry can play the first pseudo-giant in the Premier League, and Arsenal will be a 3:1!

And now, 3:1 is definitely not an unattainable dream! Just one more step forward for the kids in Coventry!

Arsenal's morale completely collapsed after conceding a goal! The physical fitness of a group of veterans over 30 years old is also on the verge of overdraft at the moment.

Simeone had no choice but to replace the team's soul Ozil and Wilshere in succession.

In the roar of "3:1" in the audience, the offensive of the Sky Blue Army was like a tide!

In the 85th minute, the day wind deftly shook Elneny and took the ball to the right wing.

Xhaka grabbed up, Bai Rifeng did not entangle with Xhaka, and directly passed the ball and hoisted the ball into the penalty area!

Tieta Manla leaps high and heads the ball!

The ball flew straight to the right side of the Arsenal goal.

Pet-headed Cech pounced on the ball like a headless fly! Flutter in the air! Because the ball played a relay in the air!

The ball was bound to the right side of the Arsenal goal. On the trajectory of the ball's flight, a foot appeared!

It's Zico's grandson Bebeto!

This grandson volleyed Manla's header and fired the ball to the left side of the goal! Fly-headed Cech's save is the opposite of what happens!

The ball is in! 3:1! Zico's eldest grandson scored! This grandson became the icing on the cake for Coventry!

"Yay~" The fans of the Sky Blue Army in the stadium were boiling!

“3:1!” The wild cry has become a reality!

Bebeto ran to his twin brother Garrincha, and at this moment, the two grandsons of White Belizko embraced each other.

Thousands of miles away, in a villa in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Zico smiled with relief on the corner of his mouth. It was a wise choice to hand over the two grandsons to the old lieutenant!

Thousands of miles away, inside a country house in Strasbourg, France. Wenger, a white-haired old man over seventy years old, angrily threw the remote control on the screen! He knows it well: 1:3 loss to Premier League newcomer Coventry, this pot must be borne by his successor Simeone. But in fact, the culprit for such a result is not Simeone, but Arsenal boss Kroenke!

Over the years, Arsenal owner Kroenke has been like a greedy vampire, frantically selling Arsenal's new stars for profit! You know, the original Arsenal was a famous child labor maniac in the British Super League! Now it has become a team of seniors with an average age of 30 years or more!

Rising stars are the cornerstone of the team! It was Kroenke, who only knew how to make a profit, who eroded the cornerstone of Gunners Arsenal step by step!

Arsene Wenger has been with Arsenal for 24 years, and the Frenchman loves Arsenal more than any native North Londoner!

Seeing 3:1 on the scoreboard, Wenger couldn't hold back any longer. The remote control fell to the ground, and Wenger left the couch in anger.

Coventry, inside the Ricoh Arena.

Today's game is like a feast for Coventry people!

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game!

3:1! Coventry, the "weakest" team in the Premier League, swept the traditional pseudo-giant Arsenal 3:1!

"Goddess of joy, holy and beautiful, the sun shines on the earth! We come to your temple with a fire-like zeal! ”

The singing of "Ode to Joy" resounded throughout the Ricoh Stadium!

What could be more joyful than a hearty win like this?

On the field, young people hugged each other to celebrate.

Liu Yun signaled that all the players lined up and bowed to the fans at Ricoh Stadium to thank them.

After Liu Yun returned to Coventry, after every game, no matter whether he won or lost, he organized the players to thank the fans. Because Liu Yun knows that the reason why the Coventry team has been able to stand in the wind and rain for hundreds of years is precisely because of the support of those lovely Coventry people in the stands.

On the commentary bench, the big-mouthed Dunphy said: "The other matches of this round have also ended. Before the start of the season, everyone thought Coventry would have 0 points from the first eight rounds. However, after 3 rounds, we suddenly found that Coventry has 2 wins and 1 draw, accumulating 7 points, ranking second behind Manchester United only on goal difference! Oh, my God! It's the second positive number! Not the penultimate one! ”

Fat Bob said, "This is a great achievement! Today's game is the biggest upset in this round of the Premier League! At the same time, Coventry has gradually become the brightest dark horse in the Premier League this season! In a word, Coventry, with an old lieutenant, is the best at creating miracles. ”

Post-match press conference.

Simeone had made wild claims before the game that he wanted to teach Coventry a lesson for Manchester United and Chelsea.

As a result, Simeone is now like a defeated rooster, sitting listlessly in his seat.

The old lieutenant Liu Yun sat next to Edda, chatting and laughing with his head coach with a smile on his face.

"Dear Coach Simeone, what do you think of this loss?"

The Daily Mail reporter flashed a knife at Simeone.

Simeone replied with an embarrassed face: "Well, our players are not playing well. But it's just an ordinary league, not the end of the world. We still have 6 points in hand after this round... ”

A reporter from the Daily Mail asked: "According to reliable sources, the Arsenal hierarchy are in contact with the clubs in China to send Mesut Ozil and Petr Cech to China for 50 million euros in the winter window?" What do you think... ”

Simeone hurriedly said: "There is no such thing! I, as a manager, have never heard of that. Rumors, must be rumors. ”

"Dear Coach Simeone, how would you rate the performance of your opponent Coventry in this game?"

Simeone actually replied: "They - good luck in this game." ”

Simeone: This is eating bananas and pulling hard - hard mouth!

"Old lieutenant, I'm a Guardian reporter. How are you feeling right now? ”

Liu Yun replied humorously: "It's even better than winning the FA Cup with Coventry, a weak team in English B!" 3 points is sweeter than the apple pie that my eldest daughter made for me! The goal set for us before the season was to get one point in the first eight rounds. Now after three rounds, we have seven points. We've gone above and beyond! ”

Simeone rolled his eyes. The old lieutenant's words were like a knife to his heart.

Before this round, he repeatedly provoked the old lieutenant in the media. The old lieutenant didn't do anything to fight back.

Now, with a score of 3:1, it is the old lieutenant's biggest riposte against Simeone!

"Hello Coach Edda, I'm a reporter for The Times. What is it like to be a manager to have a legendary player like the old lieutenant on the team? ”

Edda smiled and replied, "It's like the Royal Air Force had an F22 during World War II!" It's a wonderful experience! I'm a lucky Premier League manager! Because the old lieutenant now belongs to Coventry, and not to other Premier League teams! ”

End of press conference. The small city of Coventry is destined to become a city that never sleeps tonight.

The bars in the city are all full, and the streets are occupied by fans in sky-blue jerseys and waving sky-blue scarves.

A fan in his 60s sings a song from Coventry more than 40 years ago for his grandchildren on the street.

"Every weekend, the Sky Blues bring us victory! Every weekend, the Sky Blue brings us joy! Every weekend, the streets are filled with beer, singing and sky blue team emblems. Oh Coventry, my favourite Coventry! ”

The celebration after the league victory made the local police in Coventry feel like a big enemy. They were afraid that the fans would be happy and sad. All officers of the Coventry Police Station returned to the streets to maintain law and order.

Soon, however, the sheriffs who led the team discovered that their officers had already started celebrating the victory with the fans.

The officers stood by with batons and blast shields while chanting "Forward, Coventry" and "Long live the old lieutenant".

The sergeants who led the team shook their heads helplessly.

Football is a way of life for people in Coventry. Victory, which fills this way of life with joy.
