557 Superstar Born!
Qin Xiong's wonderful play in this game is really rare, and it may be that only one assist Henry scored in the entire first half.
The rest of the time, he's busy defending in the midfield and organising the midfield.
The most brilliant ones are naturally Henry, who is on the front line, and Ronaldinho, who has been the focus of football in the past two years.
However, when Qin Xiong received Henry's pass and broke through Puyol, countless spectators at the scene stood up and watched Qin Xiong with bated breath.
A fire burns in the hearts of Arsenal fans.
We don't just have Henry!
We still have Qin Xiong!
And him!
Especially Qin Xiong's friends and lovers, they stood in the stands and couldn't wait for the whole person to fly to Qin Xiong's side to cheer for him.
Come on, Qin Xiong!
Qin Xiong put his position very upright.
He is not as capable of making the crowd as Ronaldinho, and he is not as glamorous as Thierry Henry, who has won the Premier League Golden Boot four times in five years and dominated European football for three consecutive years.
But he is not a nobody, the Champions League final should also be his stage!
He didn't come to witness who ascended the throne and became emperor, nor did he come to assist anyone to step into the clouds and look down on all beings!
He is here to let everyone in the green world know him again and remember him.
He is no longer the fledgling supernova he was two years ago.
He wants to cross the last threshold and truly enter the ranks of superstars!
After passing Puyol, Qin Xiong's forward pace coincided well with the speed at which the ball fell.
Marcos must rush forward for a crucial defense, otherwise he is not sure if Qin Xiong will send a through ball to Henry, then Henry will get a chance to score a single goal!
Therefore, he focused on blocking the connection between Qin Xiong and Henry on the left front in this defense.
Before the ball falls and touches the ground. Qin Xiong and Marcos are less than a meter apart. Marcos focused on blocking his left front. Qin Xiong used his right foot to gently pad the ball to the right before the ball landed.
The football rolled past the right side of Marcos's body, and Marcos subconsciously retracted the center of gravity of his body to block the left side to complete the turn to chase the ball and prevent Qin Xiong from breaking through from the same side.
But at the moment when he retracted his body's center of gravity, he was stunned to see that Qin Xiong was still advancing from the left front!
Miscalculation!
The ball is divided!
If Marcos didn't plan to block the side where the football rolled over, Qin Xiong would have crashed directly into Marcos, but it was Marcos who took the initiative to get out of the way of the line, which gave Qin Xiong a chance to pass him.
Qin Xiong, who had bypassed Marcos' left side, quickly cut into the right front line.
Goalkeeper Valdés has been watching Qin Xiong cut in from midfield to get past Puyol. In his eyes, Qin Xiong was like a dazzling shadow floating in the air, rowing towards the forbidden area of Barcelona without hindrance.
When Qin Xiong made a man-ball split, Valdés gritted his teeth and abandoned the door!
Whether Qin Xiong succeeds or not, he has reached the moment when he must make a decision.
Obviously, Qin Xiong was unsuccessful, and his attack was an added layer of protection.
If Qin Xiong succeeds, his early attack will also help block Qin Xiong's shot.
It's a pity that Qin Xiong succeeded.
When Qin Xiong regained his grip on the right side of the penalty spot in the penalty area, Valdés had already arrived less than two meters in front of him.
Qin Xiong had already made a swing leg to shoot, and Valdés was trying to block the angle of the ball on the ground. He lowered his center of gravity and had a tendency to pounce.
At the moment when Qin Xiong shot the goal. He fell to the ground and widened the angle between the bocce ball and the goal.
But Valdés watched in amazement as the ball flew over his head.
Shoot!
Qin Xiong delicately toe the ball over Valdés' front.
It was a head-to-head duel between shooting and defence.
If Valdés hadn't lowered his center of gravity, he would have easily caught the ball, on the contrary, he would have been powerless to return to the sky!
The ball crashed into Barcelona's goal at a light and moving speed!
The Stade de France instantly erupted in earth-shaking momentum.
Arsenal fans were ecstatic, the flags of the arsenal fluttered in the wind, and the scene of tens of thousands of people shouting and roaring in unison shook all directions!
Qin Xiong lost his balance in order to complete this volley, staggered and slid to the ground, and then after the inertia was over, he knelt in the Barcelona penalty area and looked up at the sky.
The fine light rain fell with the wind, hitting Qin Xiong's face, and he couldn't see the starlight in the French sky, perhaps because the biggest starlight at the Stade de France came from Henry and Ronaldinho.
But under the light of the two superstars, the stars are also shining, and some people are not to be outdone and are determined to shine their own light!
And this ray of light is extremely dazzling at this moment!
He has stepped on the Champions League final twice in three years, won the assist king of Europe's top five leagues in the past two seasons, won two consecutive Premier League titles, one Champions League, one FA Cup, and swept all personal honors in England
Today he scored again, two years ago at the Gelsenkirchen Stadium.
The man who has scored in the Champions League final twice in three years looks up at the sky and shines brightly!
At this moment, there is one more superstar player in European football!
His name is: Qin Xiong!
Countless Arsenal fans in the stands worshiped Qin Xiong, his friends hugged and cheered, and Sylvia was so excited that she covered her mouth and her eyes were moist!
Arsene Wenger jumped up on the sidelines, and the Arsenal teammates unleashed untold emotions in the second half, and rushed towards Qin Xiong with a distorted expression.
Barcelona will be watching each other, their shock after conceding the second goal has begun to turn into extreme nervousness.
Ronaldinho looked at his own half of the field with reluctance.
If it is reversed, it is Barcelona's counterattack against Arsenal, and he believes that he can do better than Qin Xiong and Henry!
Destroy the opponent's defense line long ago!
But Barcelona's philosophy is to press the attack, they play the most beautiful football, and refuse to bow to utilitarianism.
Arsenal have been struggling with internal and external problems this season, and Arsene Wenger has had to compromise with reality.
This has allowed Arsenal to shed the glamorous coat of last season and take practical football to the extreme!
"My God! Arsenal played one less and actually scored the second goal!
Qin Xiong staged a super wonderful play!
He plugged in after receiving Henry's pass in the middle, picked up the ball and caught Puyol off guard with a header, and after passing Puyol, he relied on his super ball control ability to directly complete the ball when the ball landed! The whole process is coherent and smooth to watch!
In the end, he won the duel with Valdés, Valdés took the lead in falling to the ground to block, but Qin Xiong picked the ball into the goal!
Rijkaard's substitutions at the back of two now look a bit hasty, which makes Barcelona's central defence look extremely empty, giving Qin Xiong room to play.
Now Arsenal is two goals ahead, Barcelona still has the advantage of numbers on the field, they should still have a chance, but the goal must come quickly, otherwise the further back, the more bad it will be for Barcelona! (To be continued......)
