At 16:00 on April 30, 2016, half an hour later, the penultimate round of the English Premier League and the 36th round of Arsenal's home match against the "canary" Norwich City in urgent need of relegation is about to begin.

In the five games that ended recently, Everton beat Bournemouth 3-1 at home, and the Belgian monster Romelu Lukaku scored twice, setting a new league goal high of 20 goals in a single season, and is hoping to reach the top three scorers for the first time.

"Magpies" Newcastle United won 2-0 at home to Crystal Palace, who were worried about relegation, because Padue was banned and investigated, so Crystal Palace was temporarily represented by an assistant coach. The "Magpies" temporarily jumped out of the relegation zone with 33 points, and whether they can succeed in relegation depends on the results of Norwich and Sunderland.

Stoke City, which has lost three in a row, does not want to lose again, even if the "black cat" Sunderland plays the favor card, it is not good to blatantly release the water, and after 90 minutes, the two sides shook hands 2-2. "City in the Sky" stopped the losing streak, "Black Cat" is still in the relegation zone, will the relegation maniac no longer have magic? It depends on whether the remaining three games can win a strong opponent.

Watford beat Aston Villa, who were relegated early, 2-0 at home, and it is embarrassing that the Villa team, who won the Champions League and the UEFA Super Cup, have fallen into this picture. If you can't cheer up, I'm afraid you will end up at Nottingham Forest, who has won the Champions League twice.

West Bromwich Albion, who have been winless in six games, failed to snipe the Hammers, and West Ham United broke the league draw cycle in the previous game, thanks to Payet's free kick and Carroll's stunner, won the three points 2-1 away, temporarily overwhelming Manchester United on goal difference, and retained European hopes.

The end of the season is fierce and brutal, and with relegation teams or European qualification, with less than two or three games remaining, each team treats the next game as a final.

The finale of Saturday's final game was played at the Emirates Stadium.

It's an interesting game, whether it's Arsenal, who are second in the league, or Norwich, who are in the relegation zone, neither side can afford to lose.

If Arsenal loses, they will not only lose their hopes of winning the league title, but also face the pressure of their rivals in the same city.

If Norwich loses, relegation will be very difficult, and relegation to the Championship will be a big loss to the team.

In this key battle, Qiansheng is still absent, and many people feel that Qiansheng's season is over, and they can only see the amazing performance of this talented striker next season.

Since the last draw away to Sunderland, Arsenal have exposed the old problem of being absent and lacking the ability to score. Sanchez, the Chilean thigh who should have stood up, was on a dumb fire in the last game, and the momentum of scoring in two consecutive games came to an end, which made people worry that if even the Chileans couldn't score for Arsenal, who could this arsenal rely on?

Although French centre-forward Olivier Giroud has scored 12 goals in the league, his 20 goals in each game is the second most in the team, behind the top scorer Gan Sheng. But the Frenchman have not scored in eight consecutive games, and the league goal drought has reached a staggering 14 games, so such a sluggish form and performance may be swept away this summer.

Norwich City is not much better, with only 4 goals scored in the last five games, an average of less than one goal per game, and the Canary Wings, who are fifth from the bottom in the league in terms of attacking power, have scored an average of 1 goal per game, but conceded 60 goals in fourth place.

And judging from the historical record, the two sides have met 13 times in the Premier League, Arsenal has 7 wins, 5 draws and 1 loss, scored 29 goals and conceded 12 goals, and is unbeaten at home with 4 wins and 2 draws, and the last two home games have won by a large score. However, Arsenal have conceded too many points against teams in the middle and lower tiers this season, otherwise, it would not be the Foxes who are at the top of the table at the moment.

Because it is Arsenal's home stadium, Qiansheng quietly appeared in a box with Henry, on the one hand, to cheer for Arsenal, and on the other hand, to stay in the hospital for a long time, come out to breathe and relax.

In this game, compared to the previous game, several players were rotated.

Arsenal starting line-up:

Goalkeeper: Cech

Defenders: Monreal, Koscielny (c), Paulista, Bellerin

Defenders: Wilshere, Cazorla

Striker: Mesut Ozil

Wingers: Alexis Sanchez, Aaron Ramsey

Centre-forward: Welbeck

Subs Ospina, Mertesacker, Chambers, Elneny, Iwobi, Walcott, Giroud

Arsenal's prince Wilshere, who played a few minutes in the last game, started this game, and Cazorla, the core of the Spanish midfield, who also returned from injury and had been absent for a long time, partnered with the midfielder, and Ramsey, who played in the back in the previous games, played the right midfielder.

Norwich City, who was a guest, and Neil, the canary coach of the same country as Sir Alex Ferguson, lined up the 4411 anti-counter formation.

Goalkeeper: Rudy

Defenders: Olsen, Basson, Bennett, Westrom

Midfielders: Brady, Hawson, O'Neill, Jarvis

Forward: Naismith

Forward: Mbokani

Subs: Ruud, Mulombu, Raymond, Horahan, Jerome, Doroes, Pinto

When Qiansheng saw Arsenal's starting list, he couldn't help but say "ah", Henry looked over, Qiansheng scratched his head, and said embarrassedly: "There are a few people I don't know." ”

Qiansheng refers to Ramsey, Wilshere, and Cazorla. It's no wonder that when he came to Arsenal, these three were recovering from injuries.

The referee of this game is Masson, and the proportion of unbeaten games in this referee is as high as 70%, which is good news for Arsenal.

Of course, whether you can win the game or not depends on the player's own performance.

Arsenal kicked off first, and as soon as the whistle blew, Arsenal launched a fast attack, and Norwich, who seemed to have been prepared for a long time, quickly stood up in a defensive position after kicking off, swinging a bus at the back to defend.

After falling into the positional battle, Arsenal, who could not enter, had to look for opportunities under the dual management of Ozil and Cazorla.

However, the Spaniard and the prince recovered not long due to their injuries, although they recovered through the game of the reserve team, but the intensity and rhythm were different from the Premier League.

Sure enough, this adjustment worked, under the attack of Naismith and Hausen, Cazorla made a mistake in passing, and after being intercepted by O'Neal, he immediately counterattacked, but fortunately Paulista stole Mbokani and quickly defused the counterattack. The Brazilian centre-back's clean tackles and pace make it clear that Mertesacker is better suited to start this game.

Seeing Norwich's bus swinging tightly at the back, Ozil returned to the midfield, controlled the tempo, recycled the midfield, and patiently lured the Norwich players out with ball control.

Cazorla and Wilshere also took advantage of this opportunity to speed up the recovery of form, and for a while, the scene was very stale, and the game was very dull. The dry students in the box yawned even when they saw it, and Henry couldn't help shaking his head.

Henry, who has already obtained the A-level coaching certificate, on the one hand studied with Wenger, on the other hand, he went to the reserve team and the youth team as an assistant coach, and Arsenal's home games will be watched on the spot, combining the theory he has learned with the live game to increase his experience.

Because of the long-term service for the giants, I have seen a genius like Messi Ronaldo, so the Gunners still have the vision of the famous men, this game is actually Wenger is doing the final investigation, to see if Cazorla, who is 31 years old after recovering from injury, can maintain his original state, after all, there will be a lot of strong midfielders next season, and a group of veterans over 30 in the team may not have a foothold. There is also this prince who likes to cause trouble, although he is still young, he really can't see that he can still occupy the main position in front of geniuses such as Pogba, Gotze, and Mkhitaryan. If he hadn't been from the academy, he would have suggested selling him before, so as not to stand in the pit and not.

"No wonder the boss has to bring in so many people, the current first team, except for Peter, Mesut and Alex, it is difficult for everyone else to compete with the people who are coming for the first team list, and for the sake of the Arsenal dynasty, it has to be purged." Henry sighed in his heart, once upon a time, Arsenal could be like Manchester City, Manchester United, and Real Madrid, spending a lot of money to buy whatever they wanted? Thinking of the stars in the first team next season, Henry's heart is hot and he has unlimited expectations for next season.

Holding his chin listlessly looking at the dull scene, Qiansheng's eyelids drooped, and he almost fell asleep. Norwich obviously got the instructions of the manager, and the execution was very strong, even if Arsenal did not press up and besiege, and kept falling near the midfield, they would definitely not recklessly lose their positions to grab.

Half an hour passed like this, Norwich didn't even shoot a shot, Arsenal relied on Sanchez and Ramsey to hit two planes, and center forward Welbeck could barely get the ball and could only be entangled with the opposing defender.

Just when everyone thought that the game would end the first half so boringly, the situation suddenly changed, Bellerin suddenly broke through to the middle with the ball, and took the opponent off guard with the advantage of speed.

Norwich was chaotic at half-time, the middle was crowded all of a sudden, Bellerin was obviously just here to stir up the game, seeing that there was no way forward in front, he suddenly stopped and passed the ball back to Ozil, the German passed the ball to the left with a beautiful through ball with his left foot, and Monreal received the ball and went into the penalty area.

This sudden fast pace stimulated the people who were about to fall asleep to stand up, Arsenal exerted, can they score?

Vestrom chased after Monreal, he guarded the penalty area tightly, did not let Monreal cross, but the Spaniard did not have the idea of crossing at all, he braked suddenly, inverted the triangle back pass on the baseline, followed by Chilean thigh Sanchez, he received the ball and cut in quickly, and suddenly kicked the goal before Bennett rushed up, the ball passed between Bennett's legs and rolled into the near corner of the goal, Rudy's save was a step slow, and he could only watch himself concede the team's 61st goal.

“gooooal…… The ball is in! Arsenal winger Alexis Sanchez received a return pass from Monreal, cut inside and suddenly shot at goal, and the ball went into the near corner to score! Towards the end of the first half, Arsenal finally led 1-0! ”

Seeing Sanchez score, Henry happily waved his fists and jumped up, and the Qiansheng on the side also clapped his hands happily, thinking: "****** slept for most of the day, and finally scored!" ”

The Norwich players hung their heads and held on for so long, looking like they were about to end the first half, but they didn't expect to concede the goal at the last minute.

Fortunately, a few minutes later, it entered the half-time break, and Arsenal's morale was interrupted as soon as it rose, but the players hooked their shoulders and laughed down in twos and threes, and the lead entered the second half, which was much easier.

The beauty of football is that anything is possible. In order to relegate, the backward Norwich team seemed to have to press Arsenal's half-time onslaught in the second half, and that momentum was as if they were a strong team and Arsenal was a relegation team.

Seeing Norwich attacking, Henry said worriedly: "Santi and Jack should be off, they are not in good shape in this game, and these two people are not full-time midfielders, so they don't play a big role in defense." Now that the score is ahead, I should immediately change the defender, if it were me, I would replace Mohammed and Theo, and use the speed of Theo and Alex to counterattack while defending well. ”

As if on Thierry Henry's thoughts, Arsenal's substitutes were already warming up, with Arsene Wenger waving and shouting on the touchline, and Arsenal's three strikers retreating to the back to assist in defence.

Elneny and Theo Walcoat stood on the sideline of the halfway line, waiting for the dead ball to make substitutions, but unfortunately, it was still a step too late, and Arsene Wenger boldly used the injury to recover in this game, but Cazorla and Wilshere, who had not fully recovered their form, eventually led to the goal being conceded.

Scottish striker Naismith, who transferred from Everton, broke through Cazorla with the ball, Wilshere chased after him, saw Naismith about to kick the goal, and in a hurry, he grabbed his clothes, and the experienced Naismith took the opportunity to fall to the ground in exchange for set-pieces and Wilshere's topaz.

Wilshere argued a few words with Masson, and Sanchez quickly pulled him away, this prince caused trouble off the court, and it was also uncomfortable on the field.

Taking advantage of the deadball, Elneny and Walcott replaced Cazorla and Wilshere, with Ramsey returning to midfield to form a back two with the Egyptian, while Walcourt stayed up front to play counter-attacks.

Naismith stood in front of the ball, a free-kick in front, the penalty spot was on the right side of the edge of the box, 26 yards from goal, and Cech lined up the wall and waited for it.

Naismith crossed his hands on his hips, took a deep breath, glanced ahead, and ran a few steps to kick the ball out with his left foot.

As the ball passed the wall, it hit Ramsey's head and bounced off the left post of the goal and into the net.

Naismith ran to Neil with open arms and roared, and the Scots yelled excitedly.

Ramsey held his head in annoyance, what was he doing jumping so high!

Wenger shook his head and muttered a few words in his mouth, as if to say, ********** luck!

At 1-1, Norwich equalised, then switched on three defenders at once, retreated across the board, and re-set the bus.
