Chapter Seventy-Eight: Overtaking the Score!
Equation's free-kick saves the team again!
The Emirates Stadium went crazy in an instant! Under the goal special effects on the big screen of the stadium, people screamed! Some people are so excited that they want to roar out the grievances they have been suppressing together with their hearts.
Quite a few beers and popcorn were thrown into the air.
I guess the vendors in the stadium would be happy to see this.
Equation also wanted to celebrate wildly, but seeing that the first half was almost over and time was running out, he quickly ran into the goal and hugged the football out!
One goal is not enough, they need to score at least two goals to win the game!
So now it's time to race against the clock!
The teammates also understood this and quickly followed the equation back to their half.
On Leicester's side, Vardy took his eyes back from the back of the equation and looked around at his teammates who couldn't believe it, and he reminded loudly with a solemn face: "We still have a goal ahead, hold on for the last seven minutes!!" ”
At the same time, the head coach's reminder voice from the sidelines also came.
The people of Leicester City woke up like a dream and hurriedly stood in formation.
When the football was back in play, Leicester didn't risk passing forward, they tried to pass the ball back as much as they could, trying to keep possession of the ball and kill time.
Arsenal are clearly not going to let them get their way! The formation quickly pressed forward! Soon the Leicester City people had to rush to kick the football out of the sideline to clear the siege!
And after Arsenal got the ball,
Equation suddenly stopped in a hurry, and he knocked a return pass directly to the feet of defender Monreal.
The intent of the equation is obvious, to slow down the pace of the game! Faced with this idea at the heart of the midfield, his teammates chose to trust.
Leicester City are no longer in a hurry to get up and grab, and they will definitely have to defend well in the last few minutes!
When the equation saw that the opponent did not come out, he immediately changed his strategy and chose to send a longitudinal pass!
When a teammate encounters an obstacle on the left side and passes the ball back, the equation immediately dispatches the ball to the right side!
His long balls are so precise that they can stop when their teammates are comfortable!
When the Premier League commentator saw this scene, he exclaimed,
"Beautiful! These two longitudinal passes were able to accurately find teammates on the wing, and the long pass was perfectly dispatched! Fang has made progress again! ”
"Be careful of the gaps, don't leak people for me!!"
Head coach Rodgers sensed something was wrong and hurriedly reminded the field loudly.
However, it was too late,
Just after a few minutes of slow tempo, Bukayo Saka suddenly sprinted up from the right flank, which attracted the attention of the opposition defence.
However, who knows, the following equation suddenly does not pass on to the side!
He faked a dunk, turned around and went back to the ball, directly deceiving the side Chowdhury's defense!
Chowdhury hurriedly tried to pull the equation!
However, it was too late, and Lacazette on the penalty line saw the sudden change in rhythm of the equation, he instantly realized something, and quickly turned around and started!
Immediately, I saw that the equation used the left foot very coherently and sent a powerful through ball!
This ball was as precise as a scalpel, fast and straight, instantly penetrating the feet of the opponent's three and finding the gap behind the two central defenders!
It's the very center of the big forbidden area!
Lacazette started just right! He suddenly stepped forward from the opponent's side, the ball arrived, the person arrived!!
The two of Arsenal have reached a tacit understanding! Perfect pass!
Goalkeeper Schmeichel Jr. hurriedly abandoned the goal, wanting to complete the single defense,
However, Lacazette only made a slight pick, and the ball crossed Schmeichel's head to attack the Leicester gate again!
Arsenal took advantage of the sudden change of tempo and equalised!
The score is 2:2!!
The people of Leicester City were stunned on the spot, Schmeichel raised his eyes silently and looked at the sky, defenders, you look at me, I look at you, I didn't expect to suddenly lose the ball again!
Vardy stood in silence on the centre circle, his hands on his hips, just glancing at Chowdhury, who looked like he had made a big mistake.
Chowdhury is also successful, and Chowdhury is also defeated!
The opening was when he cut off Arsenal's pass and launched a counterattack; Now he also didn't follow the equation and let the equation send a precise through ball!
Leicester City is now being chased by two goals in a row, and the morale of the whole team has fallen into a trough! The situation is even worse than not scoring a goal!!
And after Lacazette scored, he rushed to the sidelines in a very, very excited way, and took off his shirt violently while opening his mouth and roaring!
Bringing out the muscular upper body, Lacazette roared like a lion!
Now I can finally vent the grievances in my heart!
Seeing the equaliser, Equation was also excited.
But when he looked to the sidelines, he laughed.
It felt like Lacazette's reaction was a little exaggerated.
After celebrating with his team-mates, Lacazette received a yellow card. Time is running out for the first half!
Not long after the football came out again, the referee's whistle blew.
The first half of the game is over!
The audience immediately burst into applause.
Because this half of the game is so rich! There were ups and downs in the process, and both sides contributed four goals!
The fans in the stands are very happy to watch, and they are still having an aftertaste!
"You're so ruthless!!" As he walked off the field, Lacazette smiled and pointed to the equation, half-jokingly.
The equation only smiled, and did not speak and pretended to be a master.
The whole Arsenal team was talking and laughing.
The whole Leicester team fell silent as they walked back to the dressing room one by one.
Jamie Vardy was at the back, and he couldn't resist taking a second look at the equation on the opposite team.
In fact, Leicester City played Arsenal once a few months ago and lost by one goal at home.
Equation was playing in the back midfielder in that game, and the performance was not outstanding. At that time, Vardy thought that the equation was just a young player with good strength, but he didn't expect that after the premise of his current position, he could have such a powerful performance!
Vardy felt a little heavy and felt that they had not done too the equation, which led to two goals in a row in the first half.
Back in the dressing room, manager Rodgers looked a little solemn, and after saying some tactical adjustments, he specifically emphasized that he must focus on Arsenal's midfield core and not give the opponent a chance to play.
Now the pressure on Brendan Rodgers is a little bit bigger, because they were obviously leading at the beginning, but they were chased by two goals in a row, and if the last game is really lost, then he, as the manager, will obviously be questioned by the outside world.
So sometimes it's not necessarily a good thing to score too early.
However, in the second half,
Leicester City still can't take advantage of the midfield,
Arsenal are still strong and have launched successive attacks on their opponents. Each of them is on the same page!
For a while, Leicester City's defense was very embarrassed, and the momentum was in stark contrast.
In the 57th minute, Bukayo Saka was brought down for a foul and Arsenal were given a set-piece opportunity on the opposition's wing!
Xhaka came to take the set-piece and found Alexandre Lacazette in the box, who headed past the goal!
Arsenal lead 3-2!!
