Chapter 121: Bloody
Mbappe was still in midfield and was silent when he saw his own goal breached.
It just so happened that he could stay where he was and wait for the restart.
As for the one-man meeting just now, Mr. Mu didn't feel very surprised, because he could easily do it instead.
And what left him speechless was that
A team-mate could have stopped Arsenal's counter-attack with a foul, but none of them did.
That's when it's time to foul, don't foul. When you shouldn't be fouling, you can't stop making small movements.
Mr. Mu let out a long sigh, not knowing what his teammates thought.
The manager of Grand Paris, Pochettino, saw the goal, he felt his brain buzz,
Unexpectedly, after their sudden change of formation, they actually lost the goal.
In the eyes of the outside world, Arsenal are like a hunter waiting for the rabbit, patiently waiting for the opponent to show his flaws. When it came to the moment of the flaw, the heart of Arsenal firmly grasped the rare opportunity.
Go to the meeting with a single knife that is very ornamental, and break all the changes of the opponent.
Pochettino's face was a little heavy, he didn't expect that after he left the Premier League, the core of Arsenal would be able to beat all his tactics like this.
However, Pochettino, as a good manager, is certainly not going to throw in the towel like that, the game is not over yet, there are still twenty minutes to go.
"The game is not over yet, don't hesitate to attack and get out!"
Pochettino shouted unwillingly at the pitch and waved his hand vigorously to signal the formation to continue to maintain upward pressure.
Arsenal, on the other hand, did not maintain the overall rush as they did in the first half.
At the end of the day, this game is just a Champions League group stage, and Arsenal have enough points to seriously affect their qualification.
For the next league, Arsenal still needs to retain a certain amount of physical strength.
And the qualifying situation of Grand Paris is actually very stable,
The reason why they are working so hard now is actually to regain the face they lost at home.
As a result, Mr. Yu Mu led the whole team, and they launched attacks on the opponent's penalty area several times in a row.
In the 76th minute, Thomas fouled Neymar on the edge of the box, and Mbappe took a free-kick, and the ball flew off the right post.
In the 81st minute, Neymar broke through from the right flank, cut inside, and he opted to shoot with a curl, and the ball flew over the far post again.
Grand Paris' luck always seemed to be a little worse today, with a couple of shots deflected wide of the woodwork.
In this regard, Arsenal also pragmatically chose to defend and counterattack for the follow-up league.
Arsene Wenger was constantly watching the clock on the sidelines, feeling like every second was passing slowly.
In order to save face, Grand Paris is still attacking with all its might, just like playing in the knockout round.
Equation is also busy defending on the field.
He also wanted to complain, and sure enough, the opponent was also a person who lived to fight for a breath.
However, he is still waiting patiently, waiting for the next chance to fight back, and completely kill the suspense of the game.
However, manager Arsene Wenger felt that he could not continue like this, and he immediately made substitution adjustments.
Alexandre Lacazette came on and Haaland came on. Gabriel replaces, Saliba replaces.
Professor Wenger was still thinking about whether to replace the equation, but he hesitated a little, so he discussed it with Arteta next to him.
Arteta was a little puzzled by this, saying: "Replace the equation? But if he stays on the field, won't he be able to threaten the opponent all the time? β
Arsene Wenger replied in a deep voice, "Because I feel that the decision in this game is a bit unbalanced. If he stays on the pitch, I'm afraid the opponent will hurt him. We have a couple of big games in the league ahead so we can't afford to have an injury in midfield at the moment. β
Arteta thought back to the rest of the fixtures and understood that the manager's choice was fine.
"Still, let's wait, if we score one more goal, we can change the equation. Now let's play him and Thomas in a two-man midfield line-up to keep our defence. Wenger thought for a moment and suddenly changed his mind.
After all, this game is also a strong matchup, and if they don't win while leading at home, they will definitely be criticized by the outside world after the game. It will also affect the momentum of the team.
As a result, Arsenal changed to a 4231 formation and used double midfielders to block the attack of Grand Paris.
But
People are afraid of what is easy to happen.
The players of Grand Paris are still very the field, and some additional small actions are always unavoidable.
Seeing that the equation suddenly grabbed the football and was about to hit their counterattack, Verratti of Grand Paris was a little anxious.
While in hot pursuit, Verratti clamped the equation's wrist with his arm.
Immediately afterwards, Gueye also pounced from the side, jamming the path of the equation.
This time, it was the two of them who were caught in the air, and there were some small actions.
The equation dodged and slammed into Gayer's body with a thud, and the three of them fell together.
Suddenly, Equation let out a cry of pain, and he felt as if his ankle had been pressed against Verratti.
The referee hurriedly ran over and stopped the game directly.
Immediately, Arsenal's teammates rushed up in an instant, and pulled Verratti and Gaier up in a hurry and anger.
When people who don't know see this scene, they will think that this is a wrestling match.
Equation lay on the ground, covering his aching right ankle, and felt that his luck had been really bad lately.
Could it be that the bad luck of the "Self-Healing Physique" talent that was not redeemed has already taken effect?
Or is this the special treatment that a midfielder would otherwise receive?
After this one fell to the ground, the equation sat on the ground for a long time. The team doctor then jogged on the field, checked it carefully, and found that there was no major problem, and then used the cold analgesic spray.
Two minutes have passed since this set was processed.
Of course, this is not a deliberate waste of time. The man who made Paris Saint-Germain made a foul just now.
The live broadcast began to replay, and the footage showed that Verratti was almost covertly pulling the equation in the run.
However, instead of falling to the ground, the equation kept "dragging" Verratti to run.
Then, when Gaye blocked it, the three of them collided in an instant. The equation then fell to the ground, and when he fell, Verratti crushed his ankle.
But the referee naturally can't see the live replay,
He used a headset and communicated with the video referee off the field for a while.
Then the referee hesitated and showed Verratti a yellow card.
Immediately, the boos rang out, and those who didn't know thought Arsenal were playing away from home.
Wenger was so angry that he raised his hands to the field,
I just want to say, is there still a need to play this game? Such a rude foul action was only a yellow card.
Knowing that this would happen, Arsene Wenger felt that he should have let the whole team play defensive counter-attacks early, so that he would not have to put the equation on the court to endure these rude fouls.
Then
Arsene Wenger didn't hesitate any longer and immediately made the decision to make a substitution on the sidelines.
Go to his garbage Champions League game, garbage referee.
Arsenal simply cannot accept a core injury.
It's just a Champions League group stage win or loss, and it's not at all comparable to the fitness of the midfield core.
After the race, the equation will definitely go to the hospital for an X-ray to carefully observe whether there is any bone crack.
"Professor Wenger made a substitution adjustment, the equation was replaced, and Ronaldo was replaced."
"It was a very cautious and sensible substitution. Because Arsenal will meet Leeds United, Manchester United, West Ham United, and Liverpool in the next league, all of which have good players. This is bad news for Arsenal. β
"After such a confrontation, Equation got back on his feet, and he wanted to continue to play with the intensity, clearly not afraid of the intensity of the game. You know, he was dragging Verratti almost all the way with the ball just now! β
In the studio, Ron couldn't help but admire this dedicated and fearless attitude to the game.
Henry nodded, and couldn't help but praise: "It can be said that the performance of the equation is fully worthy of the responsibility of captaining Arsenal." Now there are many people who say that Arsenal only have beautiful football, not blood. However, they only see the surface. Why did we play well before? It's because of the friendly and united atmosphere in the team that we can always face difficulties together. And now, the tenacious and hard-working attitude of the equation can be called bloody. β
Seeing manager Arsene Wenger make a substitution on the sidelines,
Although, the equation still wants to stick to the game,
But he will certainly respect the manager's decision.
Immediately, he walked off the field with the team doctor.
At this moment, the entire Emirates Stadium resounded with a huge round of applause!
Everyone stood up and gave a round of applause to Arsenal's second captain.
"I'm sorry."
Verratti stood aside, saw him coming over, and held out his hand apologetically.
Equation is not a stingy person, clapped his hands with the other party, and then walked off the court.
At this time, the applause in the stadium has not stopped.
Ronaldo stood on the sidelines and applauded the captain with admiration.
Equation walked over, hugged Roslo, and then walked to the bench.
"Rest well." Arsene Wenger shook hands with him and admonished.
Equation could sense the importance of the professor to himself, and nodded. Then he went to the bench and shook hands with his teammates one by one in a friendly manner.
Mbappe crossed his hands on the field and watched the opponent's core become the focus of the whole game.
I suddenly felt a little bit of food in my heart.
If it's just a goal, he doesn't care at all because he's a goal machine himself.
Now, however, the Orientals have conquered the entire stadium with a tenacious performance.
Mbappe is a little incomprehensible about this, and at the same time, he wants to prove himself in this game.
He's no worse than anyone.
In the 91st minute, Arsenal suddenly launched a wave of attacks, but Martinelli's in-cut shot accidentally hit the defender and bounced back.
The football fell to the feet of Mbappe,
Mr. Mu chose a ball, turned into a gust of wind, and passed the ball from the side quickly.
Mbappe is extremely fast, with a top speed of more than 35.21 km/h, and his counter-attacking is his greatest killer weapon.
Arsenal's lag Saliba and Thomas have failed to catch up with Mbappe.
Finally, in the face of goalkeeper Leno's attack, Mbappe cut into the box and kicked lightly to shoot!
However, once again, the home goal denied the opponent's shot.
I saw the football hit the inside of the left post again and was bounced out.
Saliba, who chased back to the penalty area, was too late to be surprised and delighted, and he hurriedly cleared the football with a big foot.
This scared Arsenal's bench players to jump up, and the equation was also secretly sweating.
Mr. Mu is really fierce
Two minutes later, Grand Paris made a comeback.
Di Maria got a pass down the right flank and immediately made a collision with Neymar, and the two instantly broke through the gap in Arsenal's ribs.
Di Maria was in this position to send a pass into the six-yard box.
Mbappe in the penalty area ran out of a small arc very spiritually, perfectly getting rid of the defenders,
He scrambled in the middle and smashed a shot past Arsenal.
βgoooooal!βββ
"Mbappe equalized and PSG's perfect combination finally broke through Arsenal's defence!"
"The score became 1:1. With two minutes left in the game, will the score change again in the end?! β
Ron screamed.
Seeing this scene, Henry felt very regretful and said: "It is still the end of the equation, which leads to the loss of the barrier in the Arsenal midfield. Paris Saint-Germain was able to press the attack with confidence after seeing that they did not have an effective counter-attack, and it was not surprising that the goal was conceded."
However, before he could say anything, Henry suddenly was surprised,
I saw the referee come over, he raised his hand, signaling that before this goal, Di Maria was offside!
Immediately, the live broadcast began to replay the moment when Neymar passed the ball behind him, only to see that Di Maria started early, and a small part of his body was offside.
The audience instantly boiled, and they were very satisfied with the referee's decision.
Arsenal are still 1-0 ahead!
The whole team of Paris Saint-Germain was stunned, it turned out to be an offside goal, so they couldn't even get a draw?
Immediately, the whole team of Grand Paris felt unwilling, and as the football came out, they launched a counter-robbery again.
However, time was running out, and after a battle between the two teams, stoppage time was quickly over.
The score is 1:0.
Arsenal eventually won the game and secured top spot in Group E.
'It was a fantastic Champions League game because PSG didn't score, but they showed their attacking prowess. Paris Saint-Germain is indeed one of the strongest teams in Europe. β
"Congratulations to Arsenal at the same time. They have already confirmed that they will qualify from the group and progress to the last 16 of the Champions League for the first time in three years. β
Henry said with emotion, "I also hope that they can achieve good results in the next league." β
Afterwards, the whole Arsenal team came to the pitch to celebrate the interaction with the fans in the stands.
Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, returned to the dressing room with a bit of a dull finish.
Mr. Mu is still quite responsible, and he took the initiative to be interviewed by reporters in the mixed area.
"Hello Mbappe, do you think you didn't win the game today, why didn't you do well?"
Mbappe thought for a moment and said: "Maybe it was a matter of luck, a couple of our shots were blocked by the woodwork. Of course, the most important thing is that we also made a mistake and allowed the opponent's number 10 to complete a beautiful one-on-one goal. β
Seeing that the reporter's eyes lit up, as if he had smelled the news headlines, Mbappe nodded calmly,
"Yes, I mean that the opponent's number 10 played very well today, and it was he who affected the win or loss of the game."
