Chapter 425: Arsenal's penalty!

Chapter 425: Arsenal's penalty!

When the first half of the game between the two sides entered injury time, everyone thought that the 45 minutes of the first half were over in such a "thrilling and dangerous" situation. For both teams, the quick transition between attack and defense and the sharp breakthrough passes of both sides were "surprises", while for Arsenal, Ribery's goal was "dangerous".

Italian referee Rizzoli gave one minute of stoppage time after 45 minutes of the first half. The first 45 minutes of the game were still very smooth, although there were a lot of physical movements on both sides, but there were not many cases of falling to the ground, and there was no team doctor entering the field for treatment, so one minute was just a symbolic stoppage time.

Arsenal won the ball and the attack advanced to the edge of the Bayern Munich penalty area. The clock had come to forty-five minutes and thirty-eight seconds, and Rizzoli was already looking at his watch.

If there are no surprises in Arsenal's attack, he won't have to wait until the minute is all gone before blowing the whistle. He had already planned to blow the whistle to end the first half after Arsenal's attack was over, no matter how long the clock was, because the last close ten seconds were not very meaningful.

At this time, Wilshere, who had been very honest on the wing and had nothing particularly eye-catching, suddenly cut into the box without the ball. Thinking that time was running out, this attack Arsenal pressed forward across the board, and the right Sargna on the sideline made up for Wilshere, and even Merdessat and Koscielny both pressed over the middle line.

Mesut Ozil looked at Bayern Munich's penalty area, his eyes widened, although he didn't need to stare at them, his eyes were already big.

Raising his feet, he instantly came to a pick-up pass penalty area.

Wilshere was in exactly that position and didn't wait for the ball to land. Instead, before Dante could react, he immediately jumped to head the ball.

Wilshire !! Header!!!! ”

Just when everyone, including Neuer, thought that this was Wilshire going to head the goal, Wilshere put the ball on his forehead - header ferry!!

"Header after the ball!! Bayern Munich beware. ”

Li Zihan's body was very coordinated to make a leg swing posture, waiting for the ball to come over and make a volley.

As a central player in Arsenal's front line, especially a player who is very good at scoring goals. Li Zihan is on the "blacklist" of Bayern Munich defensive players, whether there is a ball or no ball, Boateng pays attention to him.

Seeing that Li Zihan was about to shoot, he immediately grabbed Li Zihan, and then wanted to get stuck in front of the opponent and clear the flying ball.

Boateng's outstretched arm opened a little more in order to maintain balance, but his small arm hit Li Zihan's throat.

Li Zihan wanted to keep his body balanced as much as possible, and interfered with Boateng. He didn't look like he was on the ground, even though he knew he was acting like he was in pain, and the penalty was there. But he didn't want that, and he really wanted to beat his opponent with dignity.

But Boateng stretched his balanced arms too hard, and his throat was the weak link of the person. Li Zihan felt a sharp pain in his throat, as if he couldn't breathe. In the end, he couldn't help it anymore and was knocked out by Boateng's elbow.

Li Zihan fell to the ground, quickly knelt up, and then retched, he felt that his throat was sore and nauseous, and he wanted to vomit. But he vomited for a long time, and only spit out some saliva.

"Lock the throat!!! Boateng fouled Li Zihan, which was a malicious foul. It may seem like something unintentional, but it's hard to say on the football field. ”

Rizzoli immediately stopped the game and ran to the scene of the incident. He was standing at the front of the penalty area, not far from Li Zihan, and he saw the scramble between the two very clearly.

The Bayern Munich players knew very well what that meant and quickly gathered around to plead with the referee.

Rizzoli was very determined to separate the players such as Dante and Thiago who were around him, and pointed to the twelve yard point without hesitation!!

"Penalty!! Penalty kick!! Li Zihan won a penalty for Arsenal!! ”

"Just fifteen seconds into the end of the first half, the plot changed dramatically. Mesut Ozil cleverly picked up a cross into the box, Wilshere decisively cut into the box, and then jumped up to head the ball. Li Zihan was ready to meet Wilshere's pass at the back post, but was maliciously brought down by central defender Boateng. ”

"The foul was very dangerous, whether Boateng's fall was intentional or unintentional. This penalty was undoubtedly correct, because his action was very lethal and according to the principle of protecting the player, the foul was absolute. ”

JΓ©rΓ΄me Boateng came up to explain himself, saying he didn't mean to. Because he played for Manchester City, who had been to the Premier League, for a season, his English was still no pressure in communication. And full-back Raphinha also came up to help his teammates argue that Rafiani, who once played for the Serie A griffin legion Genoa, still knows some Italian, so there is no language barrier between the negotiation and the referee.

But Rizzoli, the referee from Italy and the best referee in Italy right now, did not listen to the Bayern Munich players' arguments. He pointed to the twelve-yard point very insistently, and gestured to Boateng, motioning for the other party to come to him.

Rizzoli put his hand on his coat pocket, and the fool knew what he was going to do next.

Very decisively, he pulled out a yellow card for Boateng.

Rizzoli not only gave Arsenal a penalty, but also gave Boateng, who had been fouled by the opposing centre-back, a yellow card. So if the penalty is scored, Arsenal will not have a chance. Because the central defender must have restrained and scruples after taking a yellow card, so that Li Zihan can give full play to his ability. A player like Li Zihan is afraid that the opponent will harass him with non-stop fouls and small movements, so that his speed and technical advantage will not be able to get up. ”

"Look at the slow-motion replay, there's no problem with this penalty! Boateng is indeed a foul, if it is a deliberate foul, it is very malicious, and a red card for a foul like 'chokehold' is no problem. ”

Rizzoli came to Li Zihan, who was kneeling on the ground and still retching, and patted him on the back: "Is the young man okay?" Do you need me to call a team doctor? ”

Rizzoli asked in Italian, although Li Zihan only played in Italy for one year, but the cup and league combined, this season has not been less dealing with Rizzoli. So although the two have no intersection and personal relationship, in such a 22-person court, the two are also considered 'old acquaintances'.

"It's all right, sir. I feel better, thank you sir. Li Zihan softened and said.

Rizzoli smiled, then stepped away.

Ramsey took a bottle of water from the sidelines and handed it to Li Zihan, who unscrewed the lid without saying a word and poured it wildly. I choked on water because I drank it too quickly.

Ramsey was behind him and patted him on the back.

Mikel Arteta came up to take the penalty, and as vice-captain he was Arsenal's first penalty taker. If he was on the pitch, he would normally be awarded a penalty by Arsenal.

Li Zihan originally wanted Cazorla or Ozil to take this penalty, because Cazorla and Ozil are very good in terms of technique or tournament experience, etc., although Ozil is only twenty-four years old, he has played for top giants like Real Madrid for three seasons, so many big scenes have been seen.

It's not that he has any problem with vice-captain Mikel Arteta, but he feels that the penalty should belong to attacking players, so it should be more reliable to let attacking players take penalties. Because in daily training, shooting is often practiced by offensive players. As for the defenders to take penalties, Li Zihan always feels a little unsteady.

It's like a farmer uncle who is an excellent farmer, and you have to let him be a construction engineer, and you know what quality the house you build is.

Although Li Zihan is now one of the hottest stars in Europa, many very professional things are still not very clear.

For example, the person who took the penalty.

Seeing that vice-captain Mikel Arteta was already swinging the ball, he hesitated and chose to remain silent. At this time, if you put forward any opinions, it is estimated that Arsenal's dressing room will not be so harmonious.

A newcomer who has only been in the team for less than a season is actually working against the vice-captain

Li Zihan didn't do such a crazy thing in the end, since Arsenal used to be a penalty kick by Arteta, then Li Zihan also felt that it should not be a big problem.

After Rizzoli's whistle, Arteta started running.

Neuer was half-pressed and watched Arteta's run, every movement of his feet and the movement of his joints.

Arteta didn't make a feint and came to the ball and swung it straight into the ball.

Meanwhile, with a heavy rain of around a second before Arteta's kick-off, Neuer made his judgment in advance.

The ball rolls towards the bottom left corner of the goal, and it is a boccia. However, Neuer is also moving in this direction.

Eventually, the ball hit Neuer's palm and bounced off.

Mikel Arteta flickered slightly, apparently not expecting his penalty to be saved. When he reacted, he quickly ran towards the ball to make up for it, and in the end, he was the first to grab the ball closest to the ball, which was the last shot to put the anti-aircraft gun.

The ball flew into the fan stands!

"Neuer!!! A god-like save, the German international saved the penalty that experienced Arsenal vice-captain Mikel Arteta was bound to score!! This is a world-class table!! ”

"Poor Arsenal, Neuer blocked a very goal-probable shot from Li Zihan before, and this time it directly blocked the opponent's penalty kick!!"
