Chapter 761: The Assassin in the Dark
In the dressing room, Lippi didn't say any nonsense, but praised Lin Yu and Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored goals, as usual, and encouraged other players, hoping to continue to work hard, especially to ensure that there are no more problems at the back.
Wenger doesn't have much to say, his team is actually not bad, and it is not easy to lead Real Madrid twice at home, so there is really nothing to say about tactics other than encouraging the team to keep trying.
Although they conceded two goals, in fact, the back line of these two goals was already trying to defend, but it was a pity that Lin Yu was skilled, one goal, one assist, so that they had no choice.
In just fifteen minutes, Wenger could not have come up with a defensive strategy against Lin Yu and Cristiano Ronaldo, if he could think of it, he would have thought of it a long time ago, and he didn't have to wait until today.
In the second half, the two teams changed sides and fought again, and the Real Madrid players were full of confidence and determination, not only to hold on to their current advantage, but also to continue to score.
Arsenal's players did not give up, after all, this is the Emirates Stadium, it is their home stadium, no matter what, they can't admit defeat casually, even if they try their best in the end or lose, it's just a lack of ability, not without effort.
In order to qualify, and in order to be able to satisfy Arsenal's fans, there has been no championship for more than ten years, and Arsenal has relied on the fans' perseverance to go down, and some teams may have better results than them, but when it comes to the number of fans, it is far inferior to them.
So this game, for the players of Arsenal. It's also a kind of game to give back to the fans, and you have to work hard until the last minute no matter what.
However, in the face of Real Madrid's strong strength, eager revenge and confident team mentality. Arsenal are a bit of a weaker one.
Will they be able to fend off Real Madrid's attack with this unyielding end?
……
"The referee has blown the whistle for the start of the second half, so let's continue to enjoy this wonderful goal shootout! In the first half, both teams scored four goals. It's really a battle of giants. It has to be said that Arsenal played better in the first half, while Real Madrid relied more on the ability of their stars to score goals. ”
"Arsenal now have no way out, they can only break the cauldron and launch an attack, otherwise they will not only lose the chance to advance to the semi-finals, but also have to grind their fighting spirit, they have so much fan support, they must not sit back and wait for failure! Desperate can also be desperate. It depends on whether they have this luck and whether they have this strength! ”
"I think Arsenal should try to score goals now by taking advantage of the home game, and it must not be like the away game against Real Madrid, which may concede fewer goals in the end, but it is completely meaningless, not only is it embarrassing, but it is also impossible to win."
"The brightest star of the entire first half was undoubtedly Lin Yu, with Arsenal leading twice and Real Madrid equalising twice. And these two goals are inseparable from Lin Yu, the first is scored by Lin Yu, and the second is his assist! If Arsenal want to score and prevent their own goal from being broken again, they will have to freeze Lin Yu. If they can't freeze Lin Yu, then what awaits them will be a defeat! ”
In fact, many people can see this, and Wenger can also see it. Lin Yu is undoubtedly the core of Real Madrid, and everyone wants to freeze him. The question is how to freeze it?
Arsene Wenger will never forget Lin Yu, who was still at Chelsea, and he had nothing to do with Lin Yu at that time. And today, he also had no way to take Lin Yu.
……
Barcelona fans have always been very concerned about the Real Madrid game, and today is certainly no exception, and this time, not only Barcelona fans, but even Barcelona players are also paying attention to this game.
While Barcelona's players would love to meet Real Madrid again in the Champions League and then beat Real Madrid to erase their humiliation, Barcelona fans would prefer to see Real Madrid eliminated.
However, despite the differences between fans and players on this issue, the two are very unified when it comes to dealing with Lin Yu.
They all want to see Lin Yu's jokes!
Although Lin Yu has been controlling the Champions League Golden Boot in his own hands since he started playing in the professional league, this season is special after all, this season Lin Yu has played six fewer group games, and he himself has scored several goals less than Messi, although he has caught up with a lot now, but there is still a difference of four goals, so as Barcelona fans and players, no one believes that Lin Yu can become the Champions League Golden Boot, they just have to wait to see Lin Yu's jokes, so as long as there is no Barcelona game, They'll all be following Real Madrid's game.
In fact, since Lin Yu's debut in the early years, it has made Barcelona fans and Argentine fans very unhappy. What is Lin Yu? It's just a yellow man! It's just a stunned young man who came out of the football desert!
But Messi has won four Ballon d'Or awards before that, and Messi was born in Argentina, the football kingdom, and has played for the giant Barcelona from the beginning, this is the real genius template, why did Lin Yu's kid take away Messi's brilliance?
They are not convinced!
They're not happy!
So they just wanted to see Lin Yu's crying expression when he couldn't fulfill his promise!
That's their initial idea, but with the two quarter-finals at the end of the day, these people still think so, but they're starting to get a little scared, two hat-tricks, it's a little too good to be scared.
In today's game, they were even more worried, when Lin Yu scored the first goal, these people were simply scratching their ears and cheeks, eager to gouge out their eyes, as if they didn't see anything, they really didn't want Lin Yu to score, even if Real Madrid advanced, they didn't want Lin Yu to score!
They were particularly excited when the second ball was blocked by an Arsenal defender and had to be distributed to Cristiano Ronaldo. Some people even hugged the TV and kissed it, and they were not afraid of leakage.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored, they don't care. Because that person has now given up the competition with Messi in terms of goals, as long as Lin Yu doesn't score. As long as Lin Yu doesn't score, they feel comfortable in their hearts and feel that there is still hope.
As the gap gets smaller and smaller, the fear of Barcelona fans and Argentine fans is getting stronger and stronger, and sometimes as long as they see Lin Yu breaking through with the ball, they directly block their eyes and dare not look at it, for fear of seeing Lin Yu score again.
They may not have realized that they had unconsciously begun to be afraid of Lin Yu's shots, every time Lin Yu's shots were taken. It made their hearts feel as if they were being grabbed by something, and that was really uncomfortable.
No one knows if Lin Yu will score again, after all, there are still more than 40 minutes left in this game, and there is still the entire second half plus stoppage time, there are too many things that may happen.
At present, Lin Yu has scored eight goals, Messi is twelve, the gap between the two is four goals, and the quarterfinals of Messi have been played, but Lin Yu still has a long time. It only takes one goal to close the gap by one, and two goals to close by two, which is really uncomfortable.
At halftime. They were able to catch their breath, but at the start of the second half, the pressure on them increased dramatically.
It's as if someone is constantly piling bricks on their hearts. They were overwhelmed, and it was accompanied by the deepening of the game. This pressure is also increasing, and if you measure it with a blood pressure measuring instrument at this time, you will find out. Their blood pressure is on the verge of breaking the safe limit.
……
"Lin Yu is like an assassin lurking at night, looking for a target......" It feels like CCTV commentary He Wei is telling a story. Perhaps what comes to the minds of fans at this time is not the scene on the field, but in the dark night, in the candlelit courtyard, a dark shadow is lying on the roof, staring coldly at the patrolling guards and the room where the target he wants to assassinate is located, and this room may be the Arsenal goal on the field.
At the beginning, Lin Yu was called the Spirit Fox, in addition to his smart brain, another reason was that he was really like that intelligent beast, able to keep an eye on his prey all the time.
Lin Yu on the field now is really a bit like the assassin who is always ready to strike a fatal blow, he doesn't deliberately try, he doesn't waste opportunities, since the opponent's defense against him has become stricter, then he has to cherish the opportunity to shoot even more, and definitely not take it easy.
Six minutes into the second half, Lin Yu has not yet had a shot on goal, but the more Lin Yu is like this, the more pressure it will bring to the Arsenal players, because no one knows when he will shoot, no one knows what he wants to do.
This is like a master duel, if someone makes a move easily, then no matter how good he is, at least you can deal with it with some strategy and targeting, but if he never makes a move, just looking at you, you will be more nervous.
Why are those masters of the rivers and lakes afraid of three points when they face Li Xunhuan? That's because as long as Li Xunhuan's flying knife is shot, someone will die! So no one has seen how he shoots the throwing knife, I don't know how he does it, you naturally can't think of a way to resolve it, when he suddenly makes a move, you can only deal with it in a hurry, if the strength is strong, it's just that, if it's not as good as him, then you can only wait for death.
Lin Yu is not in a hurry, at this moment, he has long forgotten his and Messi's competition for the Champions League Golden Boot, and he has also forgotten his wild words at the Champions League awards ceremony, the only thing he is thinking about now is to look for opportunities to score.
Thoughtlessness doesn't help, it distracts, and he knows that.
Klinsmann and Cristiano Ronaldo have both told Lin Yu that if you don't score, don't give up, don't panic, as long as you can persevere, then you can definitely seize the opportunity. Maybe you'll be able to score in the next minute!
These two people have had successful experiences and failed experiences, so what they said really helped Lin Yu a lot, and Lin Yu also accepted it humbly, and he is now trying such things on the court.
It's like an assassin who can lurk in the shadows for a day and a night without eating or drinking, or even longer, and when the target loses vigilance, he can suddenly strike at the same time, and he can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, he wouldn't just wait for an opportunity, waiting was too passive, and if he was an assassin, he would find a way to create an opportunity!
Chances can also be created on the pitch, and if the opponent refuses to expose the flaws, then force them to be exposed!
Of course, if you can't move, just leave it to your teammates.
Lin Yu once watched a Japanese anime called "Kuroko's Basketball", although it is a bit exaggerated, but some of the sayings can be used for reference, that is, if you want to look for a fatal opportunity, it is best to reduce your sense of existence and make others lose their vigilance against you.
Another five minutes passed, and Lin Yu barely touched the ball during these five minutes, and he stayed there as if he had forgotten to play the ball.
When fans watch the game, sometimes someone who hasn't touched the ball for a long time will laugh at the person "disappeared" and "XXX didn't play today".
And Lin Yu is now trying to create such an atmosphere. (To be continued......)
