Chapter 134: Explosive Escalation
A derby, two bitter rivals, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are always passionate and hot, with players on both sides fighting to the death on the pitch and players on both sides fighting equally fiercely off the pitch.
Less than half an hour after the start of the game, the war between the fans of both sides outside the stadium had already begun, fighting, brawls, as soon as the fans of both sides met, fists were the best way to greet each other.
Of course, these things, the people in the stadium do not know, they are still trying their best to play, when the game reached the twenty-fourth minute, Arsenal finally equalized, Wilshere, who has been labeled as a butcher by Degan, quickly distributed the ball to the right after winning the ball in the middle, the little tiger Walcott received the ball, along the side all the way to the strong rush, Pokolinho in terms of speed is not the opponent of this little tiger at all, after shaking the opponent, can only chase after the back, But there was still no way to stop Theo Walcoat from delivering a precise cross, and Tottenham's backline had a huge hole at this time, in fact, the Tottenham defenders could not be blamed, because no one expected that Arsenal's central defender German international Mertesacker would suddenly step forward and assist to the front.
The unguarded Mertesacker entered the penalty area, saw the landing point of the football, near the penalty spot, jumped high, a powerful header, although Lloris was not slow to react, but the speed of Mertesacker's header was too fast, and it was too close to the goal, he was powerless, and could only watch the football go into the net.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!” Just like when Deegan scored just now, Smith let out another roar, "GOAL! GOAL! Mertesacker! Germany international Mertesacker equalised for Arsenal, his first goal since joining Arsenal, and he became the first German to score for Arsenal in a north London derby, after Jurgen Klinsmann and Zieger had scored for Tottenham in the north London derby, and now Mertesacker has also scored! He became the third German to score in a north London derby! ”
After the goal, Mertesacker also looked very excited, although he did not strip and celebrate as excitedly as Deagan, but ran all the way, across most of the pitch, to the Arsenal coach's box, and hugged the equally excited professor Arsene Wenger.
The score was equalized, and the Arsenal fans at the scene suddenly became proud, raised their middle fingers, and constantly provoked the Tottenham fans.
Antienes was clearly very unhappy with the goal conceded, and went to the sideline and called Degan over: "Rod! Keep your people on their toes, this must never happen! ”
Antienes had just finished telling the whistle and when the game restarted, Tottenham were almost beaten by Arsenal in the same way.
The game restarted, Tottenham's attack was successfully cut off by Arsenal in the process of advancement, and the football was quickly transferred to Wilshere's feet, after receiving the ball, Wilshere did not choose to pass the ball, but took the ball diagonally into the wing.
Modric happened to collide head-on, the enemy was very red when they met, Modric saw the opportunity, and fell directly to the ground to put the tackle, Wilshere seemed to have expected it, and flicked the ball sideways, wanting to fly past Modric, but was still touched by Modric's raised leg and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
Beep~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The referee's whistle sounded again, and the players on both sides were in chaos again, this time it was the Arsenal players who suffered, and the Gunners, of course, did not do it, surrounded the referee, and demanded a red card for Modric.
After the referee hesitated for a moment, he finally didn't make a dead move, after all, Modric's foul was much more subtle than Wilshere's just now.
Yellow!
There was a burst of boos at the scene, not only the Arsenal fans were dissatisfied, but even the Tottenham fans were very dissatisfied, in their opinion, Modric's foul was nothing at all, and a yellow card was too serious.
No way! Own children and their own love!
At this moment, they are not English, but the purest of Tottenham fans, and they naturally do not want any unfavorable decisions against Tottenham.
The two sides quarreled for a while, and felt that the camera was almost over, so they went back to their respective homes and went to find their own mothers.
Arsenal were given a free-kick opportunity, Wilshere took the penalty himself, his free-kick cross, directly found the high point of the Arsenal attack, Giroud, who jumped high and headed the ball a little further away from Mertesacker's goal, this time Lloris made a wonderful flying save to block the ball, Vertonghen immediately stepped forward to clear the ball, and Tottenham escaped.
But Arsenal's attack did not end there, the football that flew out of the penalty area was obtained by Arteta, when he was in Fiorentina, Arteta could only be regarded as a role player, but after arriving at Arsenal, under the cultivation of Wenger, he has become the core of Arsenal's midfield, after winning the ball, the first time, the ball was passed, the football penetrated Tottenham's midfield defense, and flew directly to the feet of Cazorla, who volleyed with the outside of his left foot outside the penalty area, and the football grazed the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line.
In the next game, Arsenal began to gradually grasp the rhythm of the game, launching wave after wave of ferocious attacks, and Tottenham looked a little passive on the field.
In the 40th minute, the French winger Masania crossed, and it was Giroud who headed the goal from outside the edge of the small penalty area, which was again confiscated by Lloris.
However, soon Arsenal overtook the score in the 42nd minute, German international Podolski received Arteta's through ball in the penalty area, leaned on Vertonghen, forced to turn around and shoot was blocked by Gallas, the trajectory of the football was deflected, directly into the bottom right corner of the goal, Lloris is helpless against this goal, if Gallas does not touch that, he can hold the ball, but ~~~~~~~~~
All right! There is no room on the football field but, if, if such words survive!
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!” Smith began to roar again, and he had always enjoyed this kind of vocal work, "GOAL! GOAL! GOAL! Yui Hatano! Wrong! It was Podolski who scored, a wonderful goal, this shot fully showed his characteristics, in the power confrontation, he did not lose to Vertonghen, who was taller and stronger than him, and the footwork of the shot was also very good, of course, what was even more outstanding was his luck, Gallas was unlucky, if he hadn't touched it, the goal might have been saved, fortunately! This goal was finally counted on Podolski, otherwise, Gallas's stats this season would have been one more own goal! ”
After Podolski's goal, his celebration was much wilder, not only was his shirt stripped off, but even his pants were thrown into the stands and became a trophy for the fans.
Of course, the referee did not forget to brush up on his presence, and gave Podolski a yellow card for the crime of intending to show his body in public, and took it home for reflection.
Behind!
Degan is also a bit hot now, when Arsenal launched the attack just now, Tottenham's defenders all looked like stakes, which is really difficult to satisfy.
In the 45th minute of the first half, when Lennon was assisting the defense on the wing, he fouled Arsenal captain Vermaelen who assisted in the front field, and was shown a yellow card by the referee.
Although the first half was fierce between the two sides, but because of the quarrel, the riot also wasted a lot of time, and the final stoppage time was as long as six minutes, and both sides had no problem with it, although the players on both sides needed to rest, but what they needed more was a duel on the court.
Tottenham wanted to seize the time to equalize, and Arsenal wanted to continue to expand the results, sure enough, when the first half reached injury time, Arsenal expanded the results again, Spanish international Cazorla dribbled the ball in front of Tottenham's penalty area, Huddlestone stepped forward to defend, Carlaso was tripped and fell, did not fall to the ground, to win the sympathy of the referee, but used both hands and feet, stabilized his body, forced the left side of the penalty area, and sent a low cross.
Tottenham were disrupted by Caraso's complete violation of the unspoken rules of football, and there was once again a huge gap in the backline, and Giroud followed up in time to face the defence of Vertonghen and Gallas, and swept home the first goal to make it 3-1.
“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!” Smith raised his voice again, "The goal is scored again, Arsenal is now two goals ahead of Tottenham, although the final goal was Giroud, but before he scored, Carasso's spirit of not giving up is even more commendable, it can be said that most of the credit for this goal should be credited to Carasso!" ”
While Arsenal was still celebrating the goal, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the first half, 1:3, Tottenham Hotspur was two goals behind at home, which was a big problem.
When Degan walked off the pitch with a black face, everyone knew that in the locker room for a while, I was afraid that a storm would be indispensable.
