Chapter 154: The New King of the Premier League (2)

Arsenal fans are very concerned about this crucial battle for the team's ability to secure the league title two rounds ahead of schedule, and on the day of the game, the city of London once again turned into a sea of red, with countless gun fans pouring into the streets, shopping malls, restaurants and bars. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Wherever there is a televised broadcast, gun fans gather around and wait for the game to begin.

Fans with tickets came to the Emirates Stadium early, and the dense crowd had already filled the square outside the stadium, and under the large electronic screen outside the square, countless pairs of eyes were looking forward to it.

Before the game even began, there was already a fiery atmosphere inside and outside the Emirates Stadium that a volcano was about to erupt.

When in the locker room, Qin Shou was very keenly aware that there was something wrong with the mood of the head coach Wenger, the old coach who has always been an elegant gentleman did not explain the tactical arrangement to the players before the game as usual, but only encouraged the players a few words plainly, and then said no more.

When he was about to play, Wenger stopped Qin Shou, who was walking last.

"Qin."

The old man wanted to speak and stopped, looking at Qin Shou, wanting to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He patted Qin Shou's shoulder heavily, and personally sorted out the captain's armband on his left arm.

Arsene Wenger's hands seemed to tremble slightly.

Qin Shou understands Wenger's mood at the moment, the French coach dedicated the best years of his life to this team full of glory, he has witnessed the glory here, but also experienced the club's loneliness, now after nearly ten years, the team will once again have the opportunity to win the top league championship, this is the most important moment for them to return to glory and peak, Wenger is excited, nervous and apprehensive mood is not surprising.

In fact, not only Wenger, but everyone in the club, from top to bottom, including Qin Shou, is in a bit of a mood at the moment. In the past nearly a decade, Arsenal have not had the opportunity to reclaim the long-lost league trophy, but many times it is inexplicably dropped the chain and all efforts have been lost.

They fear a repeat of such a tragedy, although it may seem difficult, given that Arsenal currently hold a three-point lead over second-placed Liverpool. But that's the way it is on the football field, all accidents and unknowns can happen at any time, and no one dares to guarantee that they are the final winner until the dust settles.

"We'll win, sir."

Qin Shou held the head coach's hand tightly, and his tone was unwavering. He's not so much giving confidence to the manager as he's cheering himself on.

"yes, we'll win!"

Wenger muttered, a smile slowly forming on his face.

"I await the moment of celebration of victory!"

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

The race began with cheers and singing in the sky.

However, Arsenal's performance after the opening was not very good, and it felt a little stiff. Every Gunners player understands the significance of this game, and perhaps it is because of this that they have a lot of psychological baggage. They want to win the game in one go, but they are worried that their opponents will take advantage of their big attacks and pose a threat to their own goal.

This is the abnormal mentality of suffering from gains and losses. Logically speaking, with Arsenal's strong offensive firepower that tops Europe, let alone West Bromwich Albion, it is estimated that even Premier League giants such as Chelsea and Manchester City will not take advantage of it.

And now such a shrinking of their hands and feet makes their strength unable to fully exert themselves, and they have not been able to take much initiative on the field.

Compared to the home team, West Bromwich Albion, who are fighting for relegation, are much more open, and they are still in danger of being in the standings, so every point in every game is precious to them, and they have no other choice but to fight hard with Arsenal to get points.

Arsenal were out of style and that gave the visitors chances. Arsenal's attacking firepower this season has trembled across Europe, and West Bromwich Albion knows this, and their tactical strategy for this game was to hold on to a draw and get a point. But a couple of tentative attacks after the start of the game left Arsenal scrambling and they realised they seemed to have hope of turning a point into three.

As the game time progressed, West Bromwich Albion's offensive became more threatening, and they were more daring to invest in troops, and it turned out that there was a gradual trend of anti-guest dominance on the field.

Their luck was apparently good, as in the 27th minute, the French veteran Nicolas Anelka received a pass from a team-mate on the edge of the penalty area, deftly smashed the ball away from Flamini's defence, and fired straight into the far corner.

Cech couldn't make a save and the ball went into the net.

The score became 0:1 and the away team took the lead!

For this conceded goal, goalkeeper Cech seemed very angry, the team's central defense was completely empty, only Flamini chased back to make up for it, but it was useless, after Flamini was shaken, the other defenders did not immediately go up to close press, giving Anelka an easy chance to get up, which led to the loss of the goal.

Cech yelled at the defenders in front of him, and Koscielny and others also knew that they were wrong, and hung their heads in silence.

The goal left the cheering Stadium silent for about three or four seconds, but soon, the Gunners fans continued to shout, they were still full of confidence in the team, believing that the goal was just an accident, and that the team would be able to quickly equalize the score in the next time, and then complete the comeback in one fell swoop.

But it didn't take long for the visitors to score again and it was a reality for them. Five minutes later, the visitors scored again.

The goal was scored by Nicolas Anelka, a French striker who is one of the most famous prodigals in world football, having played for nearly a dozen professional football clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester City, Liverpool and notably, he was also a member of Arsenal during the 1997-1999 season.

Against his former club, the talented, self-reliant star did not have the slightest weakness, his age is past the peak of professional football, but his experience and awareness are more spicy, his clever movement in the box, teammate Sessegnon's long-range shot was blocked by Petr Cech with his hand, he scored twice in a row to help West Bromwich Albion take a two-goal lead away.

Panic and apprehension pervaded the entire Stadium of the Emirates, with fans speechless at the scores on the electronic scoreboard, and Anelka waving his arms in celebration in the stadium where pins could barely be heard.

Arsene Wenger sat in the dugout, his face sinking like water, his fingers almost embedded in his palms, and a hint of bad premonition already appeared in his heart.

In fact, even if this game is lost, it will not be the end of the world, but Wenger's concern is that if the game is finally lost, the team's self-confidence will suffer a fatal blow, and in such a good situation to win the championship, the players are overwhelmed and lose this game, then the pressure on the last two rounds of the league is even greater, in case the players can't resist the pressure, it is not impossible to completely collapse.

At that point, that's the real catastrophe.

"Do you want to make adjustments, or do you want to make substitutions?"

The aides around him also felt the difficulty of the situation, and some hesitated to make suggestions to Wenger.

Wenger's face sank like water, and he didn't reply, just shook his head, his eyes fixed on the figure with the number "14".

"Qin! Don't let me down! ”

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

Qin Shou did not disappoint Wenger.

After conceding two goals in a row, Arsenal seemed to be completely woken up by their opponents, and it is better to fall behind early than late, at least they still have time to make up for their mistakes. Now they are two goals down, even if the result is bad, it is only a loss, and if the situation is not changed, then there is only one way to lose.

No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse, Arsenal, who was driven to a dead end, made a heart, gradually let go of the baggage, and launched a Jedi counterattack.

Arsenal's overall strength threw out the opponent for many streets, and in the case of no retreat, it exploded with huge energy, and as soon as they returned to normal, they immediately suppressed the opponent with a tidal wave of attacks and took over the initiative of the game.

Arsenal's attack paid off in the 40th minute, Qin Shou used his personal ability to form a series of breakthroughs in the front, and finally was pulled to the ground by a defender who realized that something was wrong, and Arsenal won a free kick at the top of the arc of the box.

Qin Shou personally took charge of the penalty, without any accidents, the football turned into a round of scimitars, tearing the human wall, tearing the goal, and rushing straight into the net.

1:2, with Qin Shou's goal, Arsenal pulled the score back to one city, and also temporarily stabilized the team's morale.

The score in the first half was fixed at 1:2, although it was temporarily behind, but Qin Shou's goal was undoubtedly extremely crucial, he gradually settled down the disordered team, and at the same time narrowed the gap between them, which gave Arsenal the hope of overtaking the score in the second half!
