Chapter 611: Xiangwei Chocolate

Less than five minutes into the second half, Chen Yu scored the second goal of the game, a goal that completely disrupted the rhythm of the game.

Whether it was at halftime or at the beginning of the second half, Arsenal was attacking, but it was not a fatal attack, after all, 1:1 is not a dangerous score, as long as Arsenal scored a goal in the second half, they could reach their minimum goal, but after Chen Yu scored, the score became 2:1, Arsenal even if they scored another goal, the score was only just equalized, and such a draw was more difficult to accept than just 1:1, Arsenal must score two goals to achieve their goal, in this case, Time is not running out and Arsenal have to hurry up and attack.

Originally, Wenger still wanted to wait and then make substitutions, Bergkamp is 37 years old, although he is experienced and has superhuman awareness, but his age is not forgiving, and his physical fitness is difficult to withstand even half a game, that is, playing for half an hour, but now Wenger can't take care of it so much, the situation on the field must be changed, even if Bergkamp's body is not able to be replaced, now we must quickly make substitution adjustments.

In the eighth minute of the second half, Arsenal made their first substitution, with Belarusian passer Hleb coming off and Dutch ice prince Bergkamp coming on.

Wenger made such substitution adjustments for a purposeful and targeted, although Hleb has a strong passing ability, but Fiorentina contracted the defense, giving Hleb little space, Hleb's passing characteristics did not play out, and it was not able to provide much help to Arsenal's attack, a player with distinctive characteristics like Hleb, if the characteristics of the pass are played, it is a big breaking point of the team, if it can't be played, it is even inferior to ordinary players.

Arsene Wenger traded Bergkamp for Hleb because Arsenal had the ball, and outside the 30-metre area, Fiorentina was not pressing tightly, and could use the Ice Prince's awareness and experience to find Fiorentina's flaws, and even seize fleeting scoring opportunities.

When the game is deadlocked, changing a player who is unfamiliar with the opponent may break the opponent's tight defense and create opportunities for their own attack, such as changing knives.

A superstar like Bergkamp has never been based on strength and speed, his best thing is his ball intelligence, as he has grown older, his creativity and imagination have not disappeared, but have become more and more demonic, and he has created a threatening attack as soon as he comes on the field.

Bergkamp was on a Arsenal throw-in opportunity, and Flamini had a lot of power when he threw the throw-in from the touchline, directly in front of Bergkamp, who was standing not far from the corner of the box.

Although Bergkamp is old, but the shadow of the famous tree, Fiorentina does not dare to slack off on his defense at all, when Flamini throws the throw-in, Donadel follows Bergkamp and does not give him space to move.

However, Bergkamp was not prepared to receive the ball at all, and he had already figured out what to do next the moment the ball came.

The Ice Prince didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, but directly cushioned the ball in the air and cushioned the ball towards the Swedish striker Ljungberg who was looking for Arsenal in the penalty area.

This went straight from the throw-in, which was taken to the surprise of the Fiorentina defender, and Ljungberg was given a chance to shoot.

Ljungberg didn't have time to adjust, the defenders were just a step away from him, and if he did, he wouldn't have had a chance to shoot, and Ljungberg didn't hesitate to volley into the top left corner of the goal.

The attack was so fast that Fiorentina's defenders didn't have time to intercept it, and goalkeeper Toldo couldn't make a save, so he could only watch Ljungberg shoot.

It felt good to have fate in someone else's hands, and the Florentines in the scene had their eyes wide open, staring at Ljungberg without blinking, praying that he would miss the shot.

Volleying is a kind of difficult shooting technique, even professional players dare not say that they can master the fire, like Bergkamp cushion to Ljungberg's shot, the shot must be fast, the angle is not big, the difficulty is really not small, Ljungberg is not a striker who scores for a living, although he drew the ball, but he was not able to shoot on target, the ball hit the side net against the post, the net shook, it looked like it was in.

The Gunners in the stands thought the ball had gone in and cheered, but when they saw that the referee did not point to the centre circle and Ljungberg and the players did not celebrate, they realized that the ball had not gone in, and they were just happy for a while.

Fiorentina had a false alarm, and the defense of Bergkamp was tighter, and it was easy not to let him touch the ball, but Bergkamp, Henry, Pire, and Ljungberg were all used to working together for many years, and they saw that Bergkamp could not play a role, and they all began to break through with all their might, creating space for Bergkamp, so that Fiorentina could not defend Bergkamp with all their might.

In the 60th minute, Arsenal played a fluid combination on the left, and after successive two-on-one, two-over-two and wall-to-wall combinations, Bergkamp suddenly went through and Pire had a chance to shoot from 18 yards on the left side of the goal, but his outside instep shot was desperately blocked by Fiorentina defender Oujfarussi.

Cesc Fabregas took a corner from the right, Arsenal defender Senderos nodded the ball on goalkeeper Toldo, Arsenal defender Gilberto waited in the penalty area, he pulled out his foot and fired angrily, the ball bounced off his team-mate's leg.

When Arsenal was attacking, Fiorentina had a chance to counterattack, Chen Yu got the ball in his own half, and drove straight into Arsenal's half, but this time Arsenal learned the lesson of the last time, and the players left in the back field retreated to the front of their own penalty area to wait for Chen Yu to cut inside or pass.

Chen Yu just shot a fairy ball, but such a fairy ball is not by no means random to shoot out, Chen Yu didn't dare this time and couldn't shoot again, he saw Di Natale and Jorgensen plug in at high speed, and passed a high-altitude ball to these two people.

Arsenal's centre-backs were Senderos and Toure, who were very strong in defence, while Di Natale and Jorgensen were not known for their headers, and Chen Yu's cross was pushed out by Arsenal's defenders.

Although Fiorentina's counter-attack did not pose much of a threat, it reminded Arsenal not to forget about the defense, and Chen Yu has the ability to break their goal at any time.

Arsenal didn't dare to attack with all their might for a while, Fiorentina's defensive pressure was much less, and the defenders Donadère and Brockie once again strengthened their marking of Bergkamp.

Arsene Wenger on the sidelines looked at the 70th minute, the score was still 2:1, Fiorentina was ahead, he was anxious, and then made two adjustments in a row, Van Persie replaced Ljungberg, strengthened the scramble and shooting in the penalty area, and five minutes later, replaced Pire with Walcott, and used the 17-year-old to impact Fiorentina's wing.

Arsene Wenger made three substitutions in one go, which shows his dissatisfaction with the situation on the pitch, and can also show his anxious mentality, fans who are familiar with Wenger know that Arsenal has not seen three players in a row for several months.

Arsene Wenger stepped up the attack, and Prandelli also responded, replacing striker Di Natale with a back three to strengthen the defense, leaving only Chen Yu to play Arsenal's counterattack in front.

At this moment, the time has reached 78 minutes, there is not much time left for Arsenal, if such a score ends the game, their Champions League dream may be terminated again, which is absolutely unacceptable to Arsenal, they have four major empty, the Champions League is their only hope, they are like drowning people to hold on to the Champions League straw. At this time, Arsenal couldn't care about Fiorentina's counterattack, and they all pressed and launched a desperate attack on Fiorentina.

In the eighty-first minute of the game, in the 55th minute, the little tiger Walcot knocked back on the right side, Eboue broke through the cross with the ball, Henry, who was standing on the line of the small penalty area, was pressed by the defenders, did not shoot vigorously, but let the ball touch his toes, turning into a wonderful arc ball to the right side of the gate, at this time goalkeeper Toldo had already surrendered the gun, but Fiorentina midfielder Pachenza cleared the ball with a header in front of the goal, and defused Arsenal's almost inevitable goal.

There was a sigh in the stands, and the on-site commentator said in despair: "Such shots have been blocked, how else can Arsenal shoot to score?!" ”

Wenger was really anxious at the moment, he yelled on the sidelines, stepped into the pitch without paying attention, and the fourth official had to pull him out and remind him to calm down.

In the 85th minute of the game, Prandelli saw that the situation was almost over, so he began to make substitutions to delay time, he first replaced Fiore with Montolivo, continued to maintain the player who had a pass in the counterattack, and soon replaced the physical Pasquier with Maggio, ready to maintain the last result.

If the problem with Arsenal scoring two goals by Fiorentina in this game is that they are too eager to win, then the same problem is for Fiorentina, Prandelli is also too hungry to win, he changed three players in a row, trying to run out of time, but the distance between the shot and the goal on the football field can never be estimated, although Arsenal had shot so many feet before without scoring, in injury time of the game, Arsenal won a corner on the left, Henry took a corner kick and was pushed out, But the ball was at the feet of Henry, Henry took the ball on the sideline and cut inside, he looked at the middle, but at his feet he dialed the ball to Bergkamp on the left rib, Bergkamp fell to the ground and pushed the middle with his left foot, at this moment there was chaos in the penalty area, Arsenal central defender Toure has not returned, this guy who is very slow in the chaos in the front point 3 meters from the goal of the right-footed shovel, the ball into the net, Arsenal lucky to equalize the score.

In an instant, the whole Highbury became a boiling ocean, all the Arsenal people were crazy, Toure was a life-saving goal, without this goal, Arsenal was basically eliminated, this goal was scored, although Arsenal is still a disadvantage, but they have the possibility of an away comeback.

Fiorentina, who were already ready to celebrate the victory, were all stunned, they were disappointed and surprised, 2:2 is also a good result, if they were told before the game that they could play 2:2, they would definitely be happy, after all, they are infinitely close to 2:1, the players and fans still want a bike, but now, they can only accept such a little fragrant chocolate.
