Xiao Qing's goal helped Arsenal win at Old Trafford, although it was only a small 1-0 victory, but in the two games of the Champions League semi-finals, Arsenal won two 1-0 victories against Manchester United, and Arsenal reached the Champions League final for the third time in the team's history for two consecutive seasons!

The Gunners can start celebrating, having reached the Champions League final once again, and they are getting closer and closer to a big success this season; Arsenal won the treble last season and will want to go one step further this season. Although everyone knows that the treble and defending the Champions League is almost impossible task, the young Arsenal team are fearless, they continue to work towards their goals, and they have created a brilliant season of their own. Regardless of the results that come from here, this season has been nothing short of brilliant for Arsenal.

Undefeated in the league, they won the league championship five rounds in advance, and easily won the league cup all the way; The FA Cup is also linked to Manchester United and Manchester City to reach the final, and now the Champions League, in the knockout stage, Arsenal defeated Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and Manchester United crazy, they are now the strongest team, they eliminated the strongest opponent to enter the Champions League final!

Since the restructuring of the Champions League in the 91-92 season, no team has been able to win the Champions League for a second time; This season's Arsenal are not convinced, they are challenging for this record, even if some people think it is too much to do, but Arsenal will show that they are really capable of doing it, they can make history!

In the history of the European Champions League, Real Madrid has performed the miracle of five consecutive titles, while Ajax and Bayern Munich have also taken turns three times in a row. But since the 1991-1992 season the Champions Cup was restructured into the Champions League. Defending the title has become an almost impossible task.

In the long history of European football. There have been three teams after winning the Champions League last season. They reached the final again the following season, but they all missed out on the title.

AC Milan were runners-up to Marseille in the inaugural Champions League final, but in 1994 Massaro's two goals helped the Rossoneri win 4-0 in Athens to Barcelona and a year later they reached the final again, only for Kluivert's winner to help Ajax reach the top in Vienna.

In 1996, Juventus relied on Ravanelli's goal in the final against Ajax to draw in regulation time, and the Bianconeri finally won the trophy in the penalty shoot-out. And a year later. In the final in Munich, Borussia Dortmund defeated Juventus 3-1 to win the title.

The third one to come close to that record was the Reds Manchester United, who won the title in Russia in 2008 and were put to rest by Pep Guardiola's Barcelona in the final in Rome in 2009.

The last time in the overall history of the Champions League was back in 1990, when Milan successfully defended their title after winning the Champions League in 1989. In the next 20 years, no team has been able to repeat this miracle!

Now Arsenal has become the fourth team to defend the Champions League after the restructuring of the Champions League to reach the final, and they are also with great confidence that they want to become another team after AC Milan to successfully defend the Champions League; Of course, the most important challenge is to become the Champions League champion, which has become a well-known curse in football, and Arsenal want to be the most successful team after the Champions League restructuring!

Reached the final again. Arsenal are naturally feeling immense pride now; They have proven once again that they are not only dominating the Premier League this season, but also in the Champions League. Arsenal is also extremely strong, especially after entering the knockout stage, Inter Milan was eliminated by Arsenal again; Although Bayern Munich, the opponent of last season's Champions League final, caused a lot of trouble for Arsenal, the Gunners still gave Bayern the biggest blow at the Allianz Arena; Manchester United, the old enemies of the Premier League, are really extremely bitter and face the painful experience of being beaten by Arsenal in four of the five meetings this season.

Arsenal are too powerful, so powerful that people feel hopeless; Arsenal have been extremely strong in the league this season, and there may be those who think that Arsenal are only good at internal wars, and they are just more likely to take advantage of opportunities against teams that are not as strong as themselves. In the Champions League, whether it is an accident or something else, in the knockout stage, Arsenal basically met the strongest opponent they could meet at that stage, and they were always in a relatively disadvantageous position. But Arsenal still overcame those difficulties, they were extremely strong and crazy to win, they reached the Champions League final again, and they couldn't stop the madness!

Arsenal have reached the Champions League final and will be in the hunt for the Champions League title at Wembley Stadium, where they are likely to win the Champions League on home soil. Although the reigning Champions League title curse is still in place, looking at Arsenal's form this season, no one thinks Arsenal will run out of chances, even if their opponents are Barcelona.

In the other matchup in the Champions League semi-finals, it is the national derby between Barcelona and Real Madrid, which are bitter rivals; The Champions League semi-finals of the century, which Shijie focused on, actually didn't play much high-quality football. While Mourinho continued to play the style of Inter Milan last season, he emphasized the slashing tactics against Barcelona, using a back three to try to disintegrate Messi, Xavi and Iniesta, turning the game into hand-to-hand combat, and the dullness of the game was completely disproportionate to the attention.

Four goals were scored in two legs in the top two, but the goals that are really worth remembering are actually Messi's successive goals, or the individual ability of the stars determines the game.

In the first leg away, Barcelona beat Real Madrid 2-0. Rather than football itself, off-field factors have become the focus. From the war of words between Mourinho and Pep Guardiola, to the criticism caused by the two referees on the spot, whether Pepe should get a red card for stepping on Alves, why Higuain's goal was blown away, the rush of the media on both sides, the mutual pinching of fans, and the hustle and bustle outside the stadium are really more interesting than the game itself.

In the second leg at Camp Nou, Barcelona drew 1-1 with Real Madrid. The game was also hugely controversial: at the beginning of the second half, when the score was still 0-0, Ronaldo broke through with the ball in the middle and fell to the ground, the ball bounced to Higuain's feet, and the small smoking gun smashed the goal, but the referee ruled that Ronaldo knocked down Mascherano when he fell to the ground, and the goal was invalid. This sparked a huge controversy, either blowing the attack in favor or directly blowing the game to give Real Madrid a free kick. The media generally believed that the referee's penalty standards were inconsistent, which made Real Madrid unjust.

Barcelona have reached the Champions League final three times in six years, and there are always some controversial decisions in Barcelona's games, and their opponents are sometimes relatively ideal; Therefore, the godfather theory and other arguments are still very marketable, and Barcelona will also have some wonderful 'acting skills' when playing beautiful football, which also makes many fans feel unhappy; Barcelona is a top team, but there will always be one or another uncomfortable controversy in their games.

Xiao Qing and his teammates will not care about what kind of controversy will arise in the other semi-final match, Arsenal just need to know that they have reached the final now; Arsenal now know that their opponent in the final is Barcelona, and although it is a familiar opponent, Arsenal do not care.

Maybe Barcelona are lucky, they can always have some advantage in the controversy, but Arsenal don't care, because Arsenal can win the game; Last season, Arsenal eliminated favourites Barcelona in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and Xiao Qing and his team solved the weak situation that plagued them against Barca. And now Xiao Qing is also waiting to meet Barcelona, he is really happy to meet Barcelona in the Champions League final, this will be a very good chance for Xiao Qing to take revenge.

Xiao Qing does not think that Barcelona will have an impact on Arsenal at all, in this season's game, Arsenal does not think that other teams can cause problems for the Gunners, as long as they play their own form and rhythm, Arsenal is not afraid of any opponent at all; Barcelona are good, but Arsenal believe they are even better. Last season's Arsenal eliminated Barcelona, even if Barcelona has improved this season, Arsenal has also improved very significantly; Therefore, Arsenal have a certain psychological advantage, and they will have a greater certainty of victory for Zuihou.

As for the referee's misjudgment or other accidents, Xiao Qing is not too worried about such things; In a game like the Champions League final, in such a game that attracts worldwide attention, as long as UEFA is not afraid to smash its own signboard, then there will definitely not be too much controversy in this game; Arsenal have the quality at the moment, they don't care if they misjudge, they can solve these things very well.

The Gunners are in high spirits and they are looking to win the Champions League final; Arsenal are hoping to become the first team to successfully defend their title since the Champions League restructured, and they are looking to make history by winning the treble. Arsenal are now very close to a treble and they will not fall when they are closest to success.

Xiao Qing's fighting spirit is also infinitely strong, because Barcelona has Messi who can threaten him, and he is a very good player; Xiao Qing is now the first person in active service, but he also needs to work harder, because Messi's upward momentum is also very fierce. And don't forget Busquets, this guy's wonderful acting skills in the quarterfinals last season made Xiao Qing banned from the game with a red card, and this time he met Barcelona again, Xiao Qing was holding back and wanted to solve the old and new hatreds together!
