Chapter 154: The Arrangement of Fate

Raheem Sterling decided he wanted to help the team and started to get serious.

However, as soon as the football came out, Manchester City tried to play quickly on the wing. Unfortunately, Saka reacted quickly and slid past to block the ball off the touchline.

Then, the substitution number plate was held up from the sidelines, with Raheem Sterling coming on and Gabriel Jesus on.

"Hey man, it's time for you to go"

Seeing that Sterling didn't seem to see the substitution number plate on the sidelines, the equation tapped Sterling on the shoulder.

The happy boy looked back and was instantly a little unhappy.

It feels like Gua Shuai deliberately didn't let him equalize

Of course, Sterling will certainly obey this arrangement and walk off the pitch with a somewhat low expression.

After all, the happy boy is under Gua Shuai's hands, and he has fully exerted his offensive talent. It can be said that Gua Shuai is his leader.

And after Gabriel Jesus came on, City's attack continued to play.

At this point in time, Manchester City will definitely attack wildly in order to catch up with Liverpool's points,

Arsenal avoided the attack and held steady in their own half. If you choose to play against each other in the final stage, it is naturally irrational behavior.

In terms of personnel, Manchester City's attacking players are among the best in Europe, but they were clearly a bit unlucky today, as they created several chances in the final ten minutes against Arsenal's counter-attack.

Once to hit the crossbar, once to clear the equation at the goal line.

There was a loud sigh in the audience, and everyone didn't expect the equation to appear in that position.

'In the last few minutes, Arsenal's defence was still in danger of qualifying, and if Manchester City had played early in today's game, maybe they would have won the game!'

'It's a shame that Arsenal obviously had the best concentration today, and hopefully Manchester City can learn the lessons of today's game and they still have a chance to win the title.'

Sun Jihai, as a famous man of Manchester City, still felt a little regretful after the game.

Zhan Jun couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, Manchester City had a chance to equalize today, but unfortunately the equation appeared in the most critical position and prevented Manchester City's goal on the goal line." can attack and defend, the media has counted the game data before, and if he is not in the lineup, Arsenal's winning rate will drop by 20%! ”

Sun Jihai agreed: "Yes, not to mention our country, in fact, the whole of Europe lacks a technical midfielder who can attack and defend, I hope we can see more wonderful performances from him in the future."

At the end of the game, Arsenal won another crucial league game, catching up with the first group of the league, and at the same time throwing the pursuers behind them some distance.

This will allow them to devote more time and energy to the Champions League.

"Let you win us again, to be honest, I'm not in the mood to exchange jerseys with you"

Aguero walked over and shook hands with the equation and hugged him, he said half-jokingly.

Equation shrugged helplessly, "I can still understand your feelings, I wish you all the best in the rest of the race."

Aguero smiled, "OK, I'm not so stingy, this time we exchange jerseys, remember not to make us so uncomfortable next time"

Equation Lehe nodded, competition first, friendship second, now that the competition is over, it doesn't hurt to say a few jokes to each other.

Moreover, Arsenal and Manchester City do not have such a grudge, and it is normal to win and lose.

Exchanging jerseys with Aguero, the equation returns to the dressing room.

Their players were already there for the post-match interview.

In an interview, Fox was asked who played the best today.

Foss replied: "That's already an answer and I think it's the right side, to win the game, everyone played really well today. ”

Pep Guardiola admitted to today's problems in his post-match interview. He's been under a lot of pressure lately, having been knocked out of the Champions League and losing another crucial league game today, and if he doesn't admit his problems, the voices questioning him will become louder.

Thankfully, City's investors still trust Pep Guardiola. He still has time to prove his coaching philosophy.

.

After the game, the whole Arsenal team returned to the hotel in a lively manner.

Although there are still more than 10 games left in the season and it is still unknown whether they will be able to succeed, everyone is still happy to win against the strong Manchester City team.

It's game after game and it's important to have a positive mentality.

However, he didn't have long to return to the hotel before his agent came over.

The news he brought instantly took him out of the mood of winning the game.

"Sonrij is very strong and demands that we have to remove the liquidated damages?" I thought I had heard the equation wrong.

Huang Taixi nodded and said: "Anyway, he said so, if you don't delete the liquidated damages, you won't renew the contract, and this season is over and requires us to contact the club for transfer." It seems that they don't want to be caught again, and they want to stop the loss in time. ”

The equation fell silent.

It seems that they still underestimate the negotiation ability of the other party.

"Could it be that they are deliberately bluffing and using this means to make us regress?" He asked.

Hwang Tae-hee shook his head and said, "It's not easy. Football is sometimes pure, sometimes complicated, and you have to know where the Arsenal owners come from. He probably didn't want an Oriental to take advantage of his club. As far as I know, they have recently been in contact with Nicolas Pepe from Lille for a transfer, and it seems that the transfer fee will not be low. ”

Naturally, the equation knows that Nicolas Pepe, who played well in Ligue 1 and scored double goals, but when he arrived at Arsenal, he would fall into serious discomfort, resulting in the club's high transfer fee being wasted.

If it weren't for Arsenal's academy players to come up, Pepe's deal would have hurt the club's vitality and would not have been able to slow down for several years.

Unexpectedly, Arsenal won the Europa League last season, and this season they will bring in Nicolas Pepe.

I think this is the forward inertia of history, and under his unreasonable changes, the original trajectory has not deviated much.

"Why, you're not optimistic about Pepe's deal?" Hwang Tae-hee asked.

The equation said indifferently: "How can I have the ability to predict in advance, hoping that their choice is correct?" ”

Huang Tae-hee asked curiously: "What do you think about the negotiation of contract renewal, and want me to continue to entangle with them?" ”

The equation says: "Let it be, let's see what we can do this season." ”

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll go first. ”

"Of course." Hwang Tae-hee said again, "Before, you asked me to check the news of smearing the captain of Arsenal, and there was news not long ago. The people who spent money to smear them weren't from the Arsenal hierarchy, they were the players in your squad."

The equation was a bit unexpected, "Won't it be Foss?" That kid is a bit self-righteous and looks down on others, but he's not like the kind of person who likes to play tricks behind his back."

Huang Taixi nodded, "Yes, he didn't do it, this is the arrangement of the family behind him, and he purposefully wants to pick him up and become a new big emperor star." ”

The equation feels weird, "What you said is true?" I've heard from others that this kid doesn't have a disagreement with the family's ideas? ”

Hwang Tae-hee spread his hands and said: "Unfortunately, this is arranged, and all the gifts given by fate have already been secretly marked with prices. If one day the woman he suddenly fell in love with was also secretly arranged by the family, I probably wouldn't find it strange. ”

"Maybe they had a disagreement at the beginning, and then they saw that the kid was playing well, and they wanted to pick him up. Who knows, anyway, the smear is over, and there is no contradiction between you and him. It feels like it's okay."

"Okay."

The equation nodded.

I suddenly felt a little emotion in my heart, that Fuss, who had a strange personality, had been working hard to level up, wanting to prove his ability to the family, and in the end, all this was arranged.

This truth is too dramatic.

I don't know if the other party can bear all this.

As a bystander, he can only silently wish a word of good luck.

This did not affect Equation's thoughts, and when he returned to the hotel, he began to think about his contract renewal.

If Samley is really tough this time, then he will most likely have to leave Arsenal.

By the way, where should he go?

After thinking about it, the equation still wants to win a few more championship trophies at Arsenal first, and then realize the dream together.

Time flies, the 33rd round of the Premier League.

Arsenal still sent a full squad against Brentford, with Saka, Equation and Haaland continuing to play the whole game.

Although everyone's form fluctuated, because they only played Manchester City in the last round, but fortunately, they won 1-0 against the bees Brentford.

Erling Haaland scored from the penalty spot to help Arsenal get away from the road.

In the league standings, Arsenal is still stable in third place.

1st place, Liverpool, 80 points.

Second place, Manchester City, 76 points.

Third place, Arsenal, 69 points.

.

March 23rd.

The quarter-finals of the FA Cup are here.

Arsenal travel to Nottingham Forest.

In this game, some of Arsenal's main players sat on the bench, and the large consumption of three consecutive games has challenged the physical fitness of the main players.

Even if this is a cryotherapy with nitrogen, it can only have a drop in the bucket. So there is only a rotation of the lineup.

Most importantly, on April 6,

Arsenal will host Serie A's league giants Juventus.

Playing the first leg of the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

And one of the best scorers in history, Cristiano Ronaldo is in the Juventus team. The overall strength is enough to make it difficult for all clubs in Europe.

That represents the strongest defense in Serie A, and if you play a game, you have to peel off your skin even if you don't die.

The equation still remembers that although the two "Xuanming two elders" are about to run for four, they can still help Yi Duli win the championship in the later European Cups, and they will pass all the way, so that Da Xi has not "welcomed football home" at his home stadium.

The inexplicable defense of the "two elders" is undoubted, and Atletico Madrid, who may be known for its defensive strength, will shake its head when it sees it.

But now,

The FA Cup match between Arsenal and Nottingham Forest was a tough one.

Nottingham Forest used the most efficient counter-attack, which is one of the most effective tactics in cup competition.

Cup is the most accident-prone game and the most prone to miracles. Under the rules of a knockout game, players who execute the right tactics will burst into the highest level of competition.

Today's Nottingham Forest team is in this state, strictly enforcing the squatting defense, ready to steal chickens at any time.

They are still a Championship team this year, and their overall strength is naturally not as good as Arsenal, which is third in the Premier League.

The FA Cup has a very high rating in the country, second only to the Premier League.

The players from the Championship have already made it this far and they will naturally want to pull off a miracle tonight and upset to reach the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

The FA Cup is actually a hotbed of upsets

In the first half, Arsenal had 80 per cent possession, seven shots on goal and five on target, but still failed to find the back of the net for Nottingham Forest.

The score is 0:0!

If it weren't for Nottingham Forest's striker's poor ability to grasp opportunities, he might have scored a goal for Arsenal if he missed a one-on-one goal.

In the second half, manager Arsene Wenger couldn't hold on and had to send his main players to win the game.

After all, the FA's attention is too high, and if they don't win this game, they will definitely be seriously affected by public opinion.

This is not good for their subsequent games.

However, Arsene Wenger's substitution came too late, and although Saka and Equation changed some of their form on the pitch, tonight's Lady Luck was clearly on Nottingham Forest's side.

Equation first hit the post with a long-range shot, followed by Lacazette and Bukayo Saka, who also hit the post with three shots in a row.

The Nottingham Forest fans at home let out a boiling cheer, and it was the home goal post that kept the goal intact!

The home team's momentum immediately rose again.

Arsenal regretfully hugged their heads and covered their faces, and everyone didn't expect this game to be so evil.

Until the eighty-third minute, the score was still 0:0, and Arsenal couldn't resist the big pressure, resulting in a large gap behind them.

After Xhaka was headed out from a corner, Nottingham Forest immediately launched a quick counter-attack, with striker Davies getting on the end of a team-mate's long ball and striding towards the heart of the Arsenal area.

Thankfully, Gabriel dragged behind, and he caught up with Davis.

In the first half, it was Davis who missed a single goal, but this time Gabriel did not withstand the pressure.

He fell to the ground to tackle, brought the man down first, and was awarded a penalty by the referee.

Davis thought to himself that he couldn't take a solo shot, so couldn't he take a penalty. With that in mind, he easily kicked the penalty into the back of the net.

The score is 1:0!!

"No fouls! That Davis will lose a one-on-one ball himself! ”

Many Arsenal fans are sorry to say so.

As a result, Davis scored a penalty to score the game.

Arsenal were knocked out of the FA Cup!

The equation touched the sweat on his face, and said in his heart that if he didn't regret it, it must be fake.

No one can be disgusted with more trophies. Unexpectedly, they had a smooth run in the last month, but they suddenly fell in front of the FA Cup semi-finals

After the game, as we walked to the stadium passage, there were Nottingham Forest fans in the nearby stands asking for jerseys.

"Equation, my son is your fan, can I give a jersey??"

Equation didn't bother when he heard the other party's shouting, and generously took off his jersey and threw it to the little fan with curly hair.

This scene was naturally filmed by the audience outside the venue, and soon the matter was spread on the Internet.

The nearby home fans looked at the back of Arsenal 10 walking off the field and couldn't help but sigh,

"This man is quite gentlemanly, if it were me, he would definitely not give the jersey!"

"My old man, so you're only here to watch the game"

"I knew I should have asked him for a pair of sneakers!" There are also viewers who regret and say.
