536 The Second Journey to the Top of Europe
Compared with Arsenal's 2-0 home defeat to Villarreal, the result is a little uneventful, after all, in the eyes of the outside world, Arsenal's comprehensive strength surpasses Villarreal.
But in another Champions League semi-final, a game like Mars hitting the Earth, it set off huge waves.
AC Milan lost 0:1 at home to Barcelona led by Ronaldinho!
Carlo Ancelotti's 50th Champions League match in charge of AC Milan was broken, AC Milan's unbeaten record in the Champions League semi-finals since the expansion of the Champions League in 92, and the horrific record of 12 wins and 1 draw in 13 Champions League home games in the past two years was also ended.
Ronaldinho, who is closest to the throne of the ball, shined at the San Siro and assisted Giuli to score the victory, and is also considered to have almost crossed the threshold of the Champions League final with one foot.
On the back of the Champions League semi-final victory, Arsenal were in high spirits and travelled to Manchester City for the weekend.
Manchester City, who had already been relegated, did not make it difficult for Arsenal, and Arsenal won 3-1 away from home with high morale and positive fighting attitude.
Campbell and Ashley Cole have returned to form smoothly since their returns, and their performances are not impressive, but they are reassuring.
Arsene Wenger finally had the confidence to use the two after this game, and when he went to the Love Song Stadium, he included both players in the starting line-up.
Chelsea beat Everton 3-0 at home in the same league game, still three points behind Arsenal, with three games remaining in the league and the Premier League title in suspense about to be revealed.
After Qin Xiong arrived with the team in the province of Castellón, Valencia, Spain, the Spanish media listed him as the number one threat player, and he has received more attention than Henry.
Among the reasons for this was his impressive performance in the knockout of Real Madrid. Win the applause of Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu. And it was after the Champions League elimination of Real Madrid. Real Madrid's president, Florentino, stepped down in disgrace!
Qin Xiong's fame in Spanish football has grown rapidly, so much so that many fans have called for powerful clubs to sign him!
Because his contract with Arsenal is about to enter a sensitive period of "one year".
The romantic name of the love song field is back in smoke.
Manuel Pellegrini was very targeted in his line-up, but a stiff injury at the back made Villarreal look timid.
Arsenal were in a position to win, as if announcing to their opponents that the game was over.
Campbell and Ashley Cole started to strengthen the defense, and Qin Xiong teamed up with Cesc Fabregas, Hleb and Reyes to control the midfield, and they will not rush to attack the Yellow Submarine.
The yellow submarine "Riquelme" ran aground in the last game. This game is completely stranded, and it can't be started at all!
Arsenal's attack is still threatening with a sharp fast attack, but the team's attacking investment is low, and Thierry Henry is a bit of a loner up front, and the scene tends to be dull and dull.
In the end, in an offensive and defensive attrition, Arsenal drew 0:0 with Villarreal at the Love Song Stadium.
At the end of the game, a number of substitutes from the Arsenal bench rushed into the pitch.
"Congratulations to Arsenal for knocking out Villarreal 2-0 on aggregate in the Champions League semi-finals, taking another step forward in making history and reaching the Champions League final for the first time in their history!
We will see the battle between Arsenal and Barcelona in Paris, France!
It was definitely going to be one of the most anticipated matches in Europe.
In the 12 games that Arsenal have played in the Champions League this season, they have maintained a golden body with zero goals conceded!
Barcelona, on the other hand, is one of the most dazzling attacking teams in European football of our time. The two teams have a similar style of play, and there are many big names in the team. In this season's Champions League final, Arsenal and Barcelona will meet at the top of Europe! ”
After the game, Qin Xiong and Riquelme exchanged jerseys, and the performance of both of them in this game was very flat.
Qin Xiong pays attention to protecting the ball, does not try to threaten the ball too much, and avoids personal sticking to the ball as much as possible, he connects Arsenal's midfield well, and controls the changes in the situation from the overall situation.
It's hard to have a visual impact when watching a game, and Riquelme is a disappointment for fans.
He is more depressed than the poor performance of the last game, it can be said that the inexperienced Villarreal is not decisive enough in the choice of attack and defense, and is afraid of Arsenal's fast attack, and does not want to break the kettle and Arsenal to have a life-and-death duel, as if dying in peace, for the yellow submarine, the achievement of the Champions League semi-finals is enough to comfort, but not enough for Arsenal!
Far from enough!
The Chinese fans in China were in a state of ecstasy after receiving the results.
The message board of Qin Xiong's personal official website has been swiped.
Countless fans are cheering for Qin Xiong, looking forward to his second career on the stage of the Champions League final to play well and get good results.
Chinese reporters who came to the scene to report on the match waited for Qin Xiong in the mixed interview area of the stadium.
After Qin Xiong, who was in a slightly calm mood, walked out, a group of reporters surrounded him.
He was like an entertainment star, holding countless microphones in his hands and giving a post-game interview.
"You're about to play your second Champions League final in three years, how are you feeling right now?"
Qin Xiong let out a long breath, then raised his head and said lightly: "In fact, in the Champions League semi-finals, my teammates and I had huge mental pressure, but we overcame the pressure and successfully advanced to the final, now our mood should be excited and a little tired, after all, a season has come to the final stage, and the driving force that supports us to move forward is the supreme honor." ”
"Barcelona qualified for the Champions League final yesterday, what do you think of Ronaldinho's Barcelona? Who do you think is the stronger Arsenal or Barcelona? ”
'It's a difficult question to answer because it's not like a stronger team is going to win, if you want me to say, there's no clear gap between us, Barcelona are the team to watch in Europe, Arsenal is the same, the final against an opponent like Barcelona, I think it's worthy of the level of the Champions League final, it will be a memorable game, I hope Arsenal can make a difference in the game!"
"You're now the most successful footballer in Asia, what's your next goal?"
'Now is not the time to talk about that, I'm just thinking about getting more honours for the team, the Premier League is not over yet, the Champions League final is not around in the near future, and after that, the World Cup, my goal? Give it your all to win the races ahead, that's my goal. ”
Qin Xiong, who felt a little tired, returned to London with the whole team after finishing the interview. (To be continued......)
