Chapter 157: Crotch Dribble

"In this game, you don't have to leave room for anything, you have to fight until the last minute, and our goal is to make new history."

Arsene Wenger encouraged his players. After all, they've been preparing for today since the first few games, and if they can't win big at home today, then their hard work has been in vain.

Naturally, everyone knew this and responded to the manager with a firm tone.

On the Juventus side, the good old man Sarri is also seriously adjusting the tactics of the second half, and he did not blame the previous goal.

"This is Arsenal's home stadium, I don't think we didn't do a good job of conceding goals, in the second half as long as we adjusted our form we could equalise, it only took one time, it only took one quick counter-attack to succeed and we could get an important away goal!!"

"So our midfielders have to provide effective defence at the back and not make it easy for them to face our penalty area! Arsenal No.10 is not scary, you can definitely guard against him! ”

"Remember our goal for today!!"

Wait until the manager finishes speaking,

Cristiano Ronaldo also thought he should stand up and say a few words, he looked at his teammates with a determined gaze, stood up and said: "We just conceded a goal, it's not the end of the world. I would say that Juventus could still reach the Champions League final before I came to Juventus. And now that I'm here, we should be aiming for the Champions League!! ”

Ronaldo patted the team badge on his chest and spoke loudly.

No one can question Ronaldo's desire to win, Ronaldo is already an older player in Bensi, and the reason why he can still stand in the Champions League is because he does not admit defeat and self-discipline.

And Rooney, who also played with Ronaldo in Manchester United, the age difference between the two is not much, but the latter has stayed away from the top five leagues in 2018, because he was addicted to alcohol and gambling, and squandered his talent early, so that now he has to go to the bleaching country to make money.

Although the years are unforgiving, Ronaldo still wants to continue to prove himself!

The rest of Juventus naturally didn't want to lose this game, and they have put in a lot of hard work this season to get to the quarter-finals of the Champions League

They just didn't expect Arsenal's attack to be so ferocious, so they didn't react in the first half.

.

The second half started quickly and the ball was on Juventus' side.

Since their midfielders were not able to push forward, in the face of Arsenal's quick uplift, they opted for the simplest way of playing, using long balls to find Higuain and Cristiano Ronaldo in front.

Juventus' players have a level of skill at their feet, otherwise they would not have been able to rank first in Serie A.

A long ball from the back found Cristiano Ronaldo in front.

Cristiano Ronaldo's header was ferried and sent a pass to Higuain, who lived not far away.

Higuain couldn't turn around when he got the ball, and he only managed to protect the ball a few steps to the halfway line under Arsenal's Thomas.

It wasn't until his teammates on the wing came up that Higuain was able to split the ball.

'Okay, Juventus finally got the ball at their feet, it looks like Maurizio Sarri made an important deployment at half-time, Juventus are going to try to attack.'

When Maurizio Sarri saw this, he suddenly seemed to see some hope, and quickly instructed the players behind him to go up to support the attack on the sidelines.

However, Juve's advance speed was indeed too slow, and they failed to penetrate the defense at the first time, and Arsenal had quickly retreated into place!

When Juventus pressed on the ground, they faced Arsenal's tight defense.

Cristiano Ronaldo was in front of him and watched the attacking opportunity be delayed, and he was anxious and angry, seeing Cuadrado and Douglas on the right flank, but they didn't cross.

Ronaldo was so anxious that he hurriedly withdrew from the penalty area, wanting to be a fulcrum in the middle, so that his teammates would not delay blindly.

However, Cuadrado suddenly got up and crossed to find a team-mate in the box.

The result was that Cristiano Ronaldo was moving outside, and Higuain was the only one in the box who was jumping for the top.

β€œ.”

The soccer ball was easily picked off by the goalkeeper.

Ronaldo fell silent, and he suddenly didn't know how to cooperate with the attack.

This is not tacit understanding at all

However, the Juventus people didn't have time to regret the failure of this attack, and the Arsenal goalkeeper quickly threw the ball out and launched a quick counterattack in an instant!

"Juventus' backfield is empty!"

"Can Arsenal get the ball out?! There is a chance to play a quick counterattack!! ”

"Football is out! The equation received a pass and Haaland cut forward at high speed!! ”

I saw Arsenal play a textbook quick counterattack,

The equation didn't take an extra step, and in the middle of the run, he shoved straight and found Haaland in front of him.

The soccer ball rubs against the turf and slides in front of you!

Haaland receives the ball on the run, faces the defenders around him, and has to make soup.

De Ligt had no choice but to reach out and drop Halandra to the ground, who was the last of Juve's men in defence.

If you let Haaland go like this, it's a one-handed goal!

The moment he pulled someone to foul, De Ligt felt a sense of grievance in his heart.

How can any bad luck happen to him?

Beep –

The referee's whistle blew punctually, then he ran over and dug it in his pocket.

He showed De Ligt a - yellow card!

De Ligt nodded helplessly, then reached out and pulled Haaland on the ground, although he felt a little aggrieved, he politely apologized to Haaland.

The equation came over and looked a little sighing.

Well, if the centre-backs are unlucky, it's really bad. After all, the hemp rope is broken in detail

Juventus received a yellow card and were also awarded a free-kick.

But this position is 45 yards from the goal.

The equation doesn't want to take this free kick, this distance is too far, if it doesn't score, doesn't that lower his success rate?

But who has made him the team's master of free kicks, and who has the confidence to do so if he doesn't take penalties in this position?

Under the gaze of the cameras and eyes of the audience,

The equation finally understands what it means to have great power, great responsibility

Inexplicably a feat of heroic dedication?

He coughed hurriedly before standing in front of the white line that had just been drawn.

Still took a serious look at the direction of the goal, and then the referee's whistle sounded.

The equation raised his hand, and then, while running a few steps, his hands swung slightly, driving the strength of his upper limbs.

In front of the football, he appeared for a second with his feet off the ground and strode his legs!

The moment the right foot touches the football, it is pumped flat, allowing the toe to be cocked,

Football bang!

A cloud of mist exploded, and the football turned into an afterimage and flew out!

After completing this series of standard technical movements, the equation is close to the ground! The upper limbs are also swung up!

The leg tucking can make the ball faster and the line flatter, which is the footwork used in different situations.

And this process takes up to two seconds, everything is simplified, and the basic skills contained in it are so solid that they can't be more solid.

"Good pass!!"

Director Zhang's eyes immediately lit up, and he praised loudly.

He instantly saw the idea of the equation's pass, and how perfect this coherent technical move really was!

Zhan Jun was also surprised and said: "Can this goal be scored??" ”

The human wall in front of the penalty area hurriedly pounced into the penalty area, and teammates and opponents were in a hurry to fight for the header.

However, seeing that the flying football is about to fall into the penalty area,

Suddenly, as if a wind was blowing,

The falling trajectory of the football was instantly offset, and there was a falling leaf!

"What is this??"

"Are you going in??"

The ball appeared in a strange arc in the air, and instead of falling into the penalty area, it turned to the top right corner of the goal!

With a thud, the frame vibrate.

Some of the small droplets of water that had accumulated on it were shaken down!

Football was a millimeter away from the home goal frame!!

Buffon leaned back high, reaching out as best he could to block it, but he didn't touch the football.

The whole Arsenal team covered their faces or hugged their heads, but it was only a little close!

The audience was in an uproar.

"What a strange goal, the cross turned into a shot!"

"What a great goal! What a weird and beautiful arc! ”

"That damn beam, looks like I'm going to tear it down!"

The equation couldn't help but cry and laugh a little, why was there still wind all of a sudden, he was obviously kicking the cross just now!

Seeing his smiling expression in the live broadcast screen, Zhan Jun couldn't help but smile and said: "It seems that the equation didn't expect that his cross would suddenly turn into a shot!" Maybe there was a strange wind blowing at the Emirates Stadium just now, causing his cross to not find his team-mate in the box! ”

Coach Zhang analyzed: "Juve escaped again, but their problem has not been solved, we can just see that Arsenal's counterattack speed is obviously faster and more efficient than them, if it wasn't for De Ligt's final foul to bring down Haaland, it may have been scored!" ”

"Yes.." Zhan Jun nodded, "There are not many opportunities left for Juventus, if they want to score away goals, they have to press out." But Arsenal will not give them a chance to score easily! Instead, it will quickly penetrate their backs!! ”

.

"Higuain!"

Ronaldo was a little anxious, and he shouted to Higuain on the edge, meaning why not come inside the human wall.

It was really this penalty kick of the equation that made Ronaldo feel a little afraid.

If they do get in, then they are 2:0 down! And Juventus haven't even had two shots on goal yet

Higuain felt a little helpless, but nodded in response to Ronaldo.

He and Ronaldo have been teammates at Real Madrid, and they know very well how Ronaldo wants to advance

And goalkeeper Buffon is still a little out of his soul, no matter how he thinks about it, he can't figure out the falling leaves just now.

However, the ball came to their side, and Buffon had to calm down and pick up the football on the sidelines.

At this time, seeing that Arsenal continued to maintain high pressure throughout the field, Buffon chose to drive the football big foot forward.

I plan to continue to use this method to avoid the high pressure of the whole field.

However, Arsenal's defenders are not getting paid for nothing.

The first time Ronaldo got a long pass can be explained,

If Ronaldo gets it for the second time, they can't do it!

Saliba rushed over and jammed the position, and competed with Ronaldo for a long ball head-on.

This time, Ronaldo didn't get a long ball and was knocked to the ground.

Once again, the ball was held by Arsenal.

Ronaldo stood up, looked up, and immediately felt incredulous, because he didn't see the referee blow the whistle!

Cristiano Ronaldo hurriedly ran back to the halfway line to grab the ball, and at the same time angrily protested to the referee, thinking that Saliba had just hit someone in the back.

The referee just shook his head ruthlessly in response.

When Zhan Jun saw this scene, he said: "The situation is very unfavorable for Juventus, and Ronaldo can't help but be a little emotional, but in this case, they should play more patiently!" ”

Manager Maurizio Sarri stood on the sidelines,

He watched with a furrowed brow as Arsenal attacked. I'm already thinking about substitution adjustment in my heart!

In the 63rd minute, Foss cut inside with the ball and opted for a low shot from the edge of the area, which hit the defender's foot and went wide of the right post.

Two minutes later, Juventus finally caught Arsenal's misplaced pass and played a counter-attack.

In order to stop Juve's counter-attack, Saliba fouled Higuain, who was advancing with the ball.

When Ronaldo, who was still in front, saw this scene, he instantly jumped up in anger.

Only the people of Juventus know how rare and precious this opportunity to fight back is!

The best chance of the game was actually snuffed out in the cradle by Saliba's tactical foul!!

However, what made the Juventus people even more angry was that the referee only showed Saliba a yellow card.

"Isn't there a red card?!!

Cristiano Ronaldo ran over angrily and protested to the referee with his paws open.

You have to know that it is about their away goal, which is the most crucial goal, and whether they can qualify in the second leg depends on this goal.

So it's no wonder that Ronaldo is so excited!

In this regard, the referee was ruthless and directly gave Ronaldo a verbal warning.

Phewβ€”

Juventus fans erupted in a loud boo as they arrived at the away stadium.

And Juventus won a set-piece near the halfway line,

As on the previous occasion, Pjanic's cross found Cristiano Ronaldo in the box, but it didn't break through Arsenal's goal!

The score is 1:0!!

Ronaldo was so angry that he bit his collar, and his face was about to turn red.

Fortunately, three minutes later, Juventus had another chance to attack, and the midfield rarely played a wave of quick cooperation.

Higuain received the ball in front of the penalty area and opted for a long-range shot of his own!

It was Juventus' third shot on goal, but it was held in the arms of goalkeeper Leno.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was in a hurry to pick up the leak, regretted to see that the goalkeeper did not appear with butter hands.

However, Juventus have not had time to rejoice in the attacking combination,

A minute later, Arsenal burst through their defence and Thomas found the equation with a diagonal cross into the gap on the left flank.

Equation pretended to keep his head down and made a bottom cross.

Cuadrado chased after him alone.

The equation suddenly stopped and changed direction, pulled the ball at his feet, and cut in instantly.

This made Cuadrado not react at all.

Sometimes the passing action doesn't need to be too flashy, because there is a saying that only fast is not broken!

Especially when the game has been going on for a long time and the physical concentration of both sides has declined.

When Cuadrado wanted to hold him, the equation was passed to Ronaldo, who was supporting him from behind.

Then he strode away from Cuadrado.

S Luo sensibly helps the equation to make a ball,

The equation is running and receiving the ball again, and it has entered the penalty area!

However, just as he wanted to shoot, Bonucci raised his leg to block it, like a flying elephant!

β€œοΌοΌοΌβ€

The equation reacted extremely quickly, and since he was about to block the door, he buckled his feet and dodged to the side.

Shoot again!

However, who knew that De Ligt fell to the ground and shoveled again.

Hey!

The equation smashed the ball again, and simply didn't shoot!

Anyway, he's not a lone wolf who likes to be showy, and he will be pulled down if he doesn't let him score!

It just so happened that Haaland was not far from the side, facing half of the empty door, and everyone's attention came to the equation, and no one was watching Haaland anymore!!

So, the equation easily pushed the football to Haaland.

In the face of the big gift from his teammates, Haaland pushed the ball and broke through the gate guarded by Buffon!

The score is 2:0!!

The soccer ball hits the net steadily. Haaland grinned and pointed to the captain who had sent the assist as he stepped back!

The equation also laughed.

Then he had an idea, and when he was trotting towards Haaland to celebrate the goal, he suddenly made a basketball motion of dribbling the ball under his crotch.

It's like going to get past your teammates!

When the teammates saw this scene, they immediately laughed even more happily.

It's a great way to play out!
