The official start of the game is 7:30 p.m. local time.

The two teams returned to the pitch from the locker rooms to prepare for the game, while commentators from more than a dozen media outlets were also on the bench to make adjustments and give their opinions on the upcoming game.

"This game is actually very interesting, Atletico Madrid defeated the biggest rival Real Madrid in the league at the weekend, and this season's La Liga title, Atletico Madrid won again after eight years! They are in perfect form at the moment and they will be going all out on their home turf to try to turn the tables around! ”

"The two-goal advantage is not big, but I am more optimistic about Arsenal, although they have allowed their opponents to get two away goals, but if they play carefully, the difference between two goals is enough for them to qualify for the last four!"

"Look who this is, wow, do you think this beautiful girl is familiar? Ha, that's right, she is Qin's girlfriend, Miss Jennifer, the most beautiful policewoman from the UK...... This match was extremely crucial for Qin, and it was only natural that Jennifer would come to the scene to cheer on her boyfriend. ”

"To be honest, in the hearts of Atletico fans, Jennifer is also a big celebrity now...... However, it is a pity that according to the starting lists of both sides just obtained, Qin does not seem to be going to start in this game - Qin seems to have been injured a little when he was fighting with Carvalho in the last round of the league, presumably for protection reasons, Simeone is not far from his lover to risk ......"

"The president of Atletico Madrid, Enrique. Mr. Cerezo was also in the stands, and it seemed that he took this game very seriously...... Oh, he's sitting with Miss Jennifer, and I wonder if they're going to start a discussion about the Chinese Qin! ”

"Well, the game is about to start, we have our eyes on the pitch for the time being, the players are in place, the referee is looking up at his watch. The whistle blows and the game begins! ”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

With the referee's whistle, the game kicked off.

Arsenal's starting line-up did not change much from the first leg, except that South Korean Park Joo-yong was removed from the front line, leaving only Van Persie with a lone arrow, and an extra player in the midfield, and Ramsey, who was good in defense and attack, took the South Korean's place.

On the Atletico Madrid side, because Qin Shou did not start, the frontcourt attack group was composed of Griezmann, Falcao, and Costa, and Tiger Falcao returned to the starting list again.

Atletico Madrid played in a 4-3-3 formation. The intention is clear, this game is all about attacking. After all, they are two goals behind their opponents on aggregate, and attacking is the only option.

Arsenal's intentions are just as simple, with four defenders, five midfielders and just one striker, and it's clear that they are going to play defensive counter-attacks. They have a two-goal advantage and don't have to play against each other on the road, and they know the situation on both sides. Atletico Madrid have to fight for a chance to survive, and their goal is to withstand the opponent's counterattack and maintain the advantage until the end.

Sure enough, the game began. Atletico Madrid, who played at home, put on a strong attacking posture.

Because of the lack of Qin Shou, the playmaker in the middle, Atletico Madrid omitted the link of excessive midfield, and the midfield passed the ball directly to the two wings, and then the two wings or cut inside. Or a cross from the bottom of the ball. This style of play is very similar to Arsenal's long pass rushing in the first leg, which is also a matter of no choice, when Qin Shou is present. The midfield is sorted out in an orderly manner, the rhythm is very good, when to attack, and from which direction and point the attack is launched, everyone doesn't care, just follow Qin Shou's scheduling.

Now that Qin Shou is not on the field, it is naturally how simple it is-the routine is complicated, and he may be confused.

However, Rao is like this, and the opening few attacks, Atletico Madrid played a little inexplicably.

Atletico Madrid quickly hit the football to the side, and then the player with the ball will subconsciously pass the football to the front of the penalty area, because in the past, Qin Shou would follow up quickly, but now when he passes like this, either this position is empty, or the player behind him is slow to follow up, and the football is easily truncated by Arsenal.

If you cut inside, it is even more unbearable, often after the breakthrough, surrounded by Arsenal's defenders again, the Atletico Madrid players with the ball are a little unsure of what to do, under normal circumstances, they will cooperate with Qin Shou, or give the ball to Qin Shou, run by themselves, and help Qin Shou create a vacancy, but now...... Hehe, their individual ability is not bad, but if they want to single-handedly take out the opponent's entire defense line, it is tantamount to a fool's dream.

It was precisely because of this discomfort that Atletico Madrid's opening attack seemed thunderous and rainy - they had made a quick step in the midfield, but the attacking coordination in the front court was disorganized, which invisibly brought much less pressure to Arsenal.

To be honest, Qin Shou did not start, but it surprised Arsenal's side. Before the game, they also made a lot of arrangements for Qin Shou, but now it seems that these arrangements have all become useless.

However, the biggest threat did not appear on the pitch, which is also a good thing, Atletico seem to attack with ferocity, but there are not many real threats, which makes them more comfortable defending.

Atletico Madrid then cut down on the redundant passing, and their routine became simple and transparent, that is, a strong pass to the side, and then passed the ball into the penalty area, allowing the three strikers to scramble.

However, the effect is also mediocre, Mertesacker and Koscielny, the two central defenders have a good ability to defend high balls, and do not give Atletico Madrid strikers too good opportunities.

Time slipped away quickly, the first half has been twenty minutes, but the situation has not changed much, Atletico Madrid, who is behind the aggregate score, is still the main attacking side, and Arsenal is a good game of defensive counterattack, compared to Atletico Madrid's painless tickling officiation, Arsenal's counterattack is of better quality, in the sixteenth minute, Arsenal's quick counterattack almost broke through Atletico Madrid's goal, if it wasn't for Courtois's bravery, Van Persie's single ball was saved, Maybe the aggregate score of the two teams has become 5:2 at this moment.

The home commentator is naturally interested in Atletico Madrid, but Atletico Madrid's attack only blossomed and did not bear fruit, and he was also anxious and couldn't stop sighing.

"Atletico Madrid's attack is too simple, simple is not a bad thing, but the lack of variation makes it easy for the opponent to figure out the routine and play a targeted defense."

Atletico moved the ball to the right side again, and Turan didn't cross this time, he opted to cut in...... Alas, the football was cut off again, and Turan's handling was a little frizzy...... If Qin was on the field at this time, he wouldn't do it, he would control the rhythm, slowly look for loopholes in the opponent's defense line, and want to eat a big fat man, how can there be such a good thing, the other party is not a fish belly......"

"Ah, Gabby rushed up and a defender pounced...... Gabi opted to pass the ball back...... This is obviously a good opportunity to rush forward, the opponent's defense has leaked a gap, Gabi only needs to push the ball through quickly, maybe it is a good opportunity to attack...... Not slow when it's supposed to be slow, not fast when it's supposed to be fast, I'm really ...... I miss Qin's days on the court very much! ”

'There are some people when he's on the pitch and you probably don't feel how important he is. And as soon as he is not on the court, you will find that when you have him, you are really happy...... I'm sure it's not just me who thinks so, but the Atletico players on the pitch may also be missing someone immensely...... You know who I'm talking about......"

……

In the long sigh of the home commentator, the time went on to the thirty-first minute. It was also at this time that Atletico Madrid finally had their best attacking opportunity so far in the entire first half.

Gabi's sudden dribbling forward rushed forward to catch the Arsenal midfield defence off guard, and in the face of Ramsey, who rushed up, Gabi did not choose to pass the ball this time, he used his strong body to carry the opponent behind him, and then ran forward with the ball.

And Koke and Turan also cooperated to pull on the two wings to attract defensive strength for him.

Arsenal's players had to defend the two and the middle was left empty.

Gabi drove straight in, and rushed to the penalty area twenty-five meters unimpeded. In this position, in fact, you can already hit the door directly.

But Gabi hesitated, or rather, Gabi was a little lacking in his feet, and with no one to mark, he chose to stuff the ball straight into the box.

This choice cannot be said to be wrong, after all, the three Atletico strikers in the box are all running, and if the pass is coordinated properly, it may not be a good opportunity.

However, Gabi's ability to pass and penetrate the ball is obviously more than a notch worse than Qin Shoulai, if it weren't for Costa's strong body and quick reaction, this pass might have been blocked by Mertesacker's outstretched foot.

As it was, Costa stumbled to protect the ball, but couldn't turn around, let alone shoot.

Fortunately, Griezmann was agile and quickly ran past Costa, who knocked the ball with his heel, and Griezmann took the ball with him, followed by a kick at the goal.

The shot was sudden, powerful and powerful, but because the angle was so small, Almunia was already in position, and in the end, the shot was shot out of the net and then cleared by Koscielny with a big foot.
