Chapter 77 Controversy
It's different from the impassioned Real Madrid dressing room.
Home team dressing room.
Arsenal's players were calm.
"Forty-five minutes to go, remember. Don't fight with them, hold your defense, and wait patiently for the opportunity to counterattack! We just need to settle down and we'll qualify, time is on our side! โ
Arsene Wenger exclaimed.
He's not thinking about how to make the cut right now.
It's about how to get the players to eat as few cards as possible.
Avoid making the game chaotic and giving your opponent a chance.
As long as this game goes on smoothly.
Arsenal's promotion is a sure thing.
Any conflicts and accidents.
will break this stability, leading to some unexpected situations.
That's what Wenger doesn't want.
The players nodded their heads.
They hold a three-goal lead with four away goals.
The opposition had to score four goals in the second half to turn it around.
In this case.
They don't need to be beaten.
As long as they stay calm, they can secure the cut.
The second half of the game begins.
The two sides changed sides and fought again.
Neither side made any substitutions after the break.
Both coaches kept three substitutions as their back hands.
In the 48th minute of the game, Yelo's long-range shot was defeated by Diego. Lรณpez pounced.
Arsenal win a corner.
Cazorla drove a corner kick in, Giroud grabbed the spot in the box and headed the ball towards goal, but under Pepe's interference, the ball did not go up fast enough and was blocked by Diego. Lopes took it into his arms, and then he threw the ball directly into the half court, and Real Madrid quickly counterattacked!
"Cristiano. Ronaldo !! โ
In the midst of the exclamations of the commentators.
Cristiano, who was not involved in the corner kick defense but had been waiting in front of him for a counter-attacking opportunity. Ronaldo picked up speed quickly, crossed the Arsenal defence and caught up with the football!!
"Single-edged !!"
In the exclamation of the narrator and the boos of the audience.
Cristiano. Ronaldo got a one-on-one shot in the area more than forty meters from the goal!
"Diego. Lopes picked Giroud's header and threw the ball directly into the goal! Cristiano. Ronaldo is crashing with the ball! โ
"Cristiano Cristiano Cristiano."
All eyes are on Arsenal's backfield.
Everyone thought it was Cristiano. The duel between Ronaldo and Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny.
But at this very moment.
A red figure quickly chased back!
"Yelo !!"
In the exclamation of the narrator.
Ye Luo's speed exploded to the limit.
He quickly appealed to Cristiano. Ronaldo close!
The Arsenal fans in the stadium suddenly turned from boos to cheers.
And this also reminded Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo was shocked.
He was going to continue with the ball, because of such a long distance, the goalkeeper was worried that he would not dare to attack now, plus he was confident in his speed, so he had already thought that he would at least dribble the ball into the penalty area and then decide whether to shoot or pass the goalkeeper. ใ
However.
The cheers of the crowd made Ronaldo aware of the danger, and he did not look back, instinctively feeling a gust of wind coming from behind his left side.
He slammed the ball with his left foot and slammed it to his right.
Meanwhile.
A figure came from the side and back of the shovel!
At the same time that the spikes of the shoe were pressed on the top of the football, the other foot also followed Cristiano. Ronaldo flipped to the ground.
"Be careful!!" The Spanish narrator exclaimed.
"Beautiful!! Ye Luo's key return defense! He spoiled Cristiano. Ronaldo's single knife!! Sky Sports TV announcer Andy Gray shouted.
The Emirates Stadium burst into cheers and applause.
All the Arsenal fans were cheering on Yelo's defence this time.
But at this point.
The referee rushed up.
Took out a yellow card from his pocket!
"I've got the ball!!"
Ye Luo held his head in his hands, and couldn't believe that this tackle that he thought was very clean would be judged a foul!
"It's a red card! He ruined my single knife!! โ
Cristiano. Ronaldo is chanting.
He also has a point.
If the referee is going to give a foul.
That's definitely going to give a red card, and now what's the point of giving a yellow card.
This penalty immediately caused players on both sides to question the referee's decision.
"He's fouled! Shouldn't a foul that spoil a single knife be a red card?! โ
Ramos shouted loudly.
"Give him a red card! Red!! โ
"It's not a foul! How can this be a foul?! โ
"Tackle the ball! It's clear that the tackle is on the ball!! โ
Arsenal's players are not convinced.
The scene was chaotic for a moment.
Mourinho jumped to his feet with excitement.
He raised his arms high: "Red card!" Red! Where's the red card! The rules are written there! The rules are written there!! โ
His loud roar provoked the intervention of the Fourth Official.
But Mourinho's emotions are still very high.
I can't help but get excited.
Because he saw hope.
Hope for miracles!!
If Ye Luo is punished
Arsene Wenger's heart was pounding at this point.
He was relieved only after seeing the yellow card shown by the referee.
"No fouls! This is no foul at all! โ
Arsene Wenger also shouted.
Going head-to-head with Jose Mourinho.
The two managers were also on the sidelines.
on the pitch.
The referee from Germany, Bormann, blasted the players on both sides away and then called the two sides over.
He first explained to Ronaldo: "He did tackle the ball, and you were too far away from the goal, this foul was 40 meters away from the goal, and the ball was not enough for a red card."
Then he explained to Yelo: "You did tackle the ball, I saw it too, but . . Your left foot followed up and brought down your opponent, and I thought it was redundant, so I showed you a yellow card."
Ye Luo was powerless to complain when he heard this explanation.
This right foot shovels out, where is the left foot to be placed?
You can't cut it down.
Ye Luo shook his head.
However, the referee did not give him a red card, which made him a little relieved.
Regardless of the other party's explanation.
Anyway.
On the football field.
The referee's authority is enormous.
And everyone's understanding of the rules is different.
At least in the Premier League.
Ye Luo's chase and shovel just now is a very clean defense.
You won't even blow for a foul.
However, in other arenas, different referees may have different interpretations of the rules, and different penalties may be awarded.
Ye Luo could only express his understanding of this.
"Foul! Break the foul of the single knife! It's a red card! The referee is simply committing a crime! He murdered Real Madrid's victory!! โ
The Spanish narrator gritted his teeth with excitement.
"How can this be a foul! Shovel the ball! Everybody saw the tackle! Many of the English commentators in the commentary table were indignant.
on the web.
Fans on both sides also started a debate.
This decision is sure to cause a lot of controversy.
And both sides have their own senses.
On the one hand, he thinks that Ye Luo is a clean tackle, which cannot be considered a foul at all.
On the other hand, it is believed that no matter whether Ye Luo has committed a foul or not, as long as the referee gives a foul, it must be a red card! Because Ronaldo single-handedly.
In a word.
Neither side could convince anyone.
This is not determined by the rules, but by the positions of both sides.
Let's take an analogy.
As long as the two sides are replaced, it is Ye Luo who is rushing with the ball, and Ronaldo's tackle, the positions of the fans on both sides will definitely turn around
For the fans anyway.
Rules?
What are the rules?
Does it matter that the rules have an ass?
With the intervention of the referee.
Conflict and chaos subsided.
Mourinho on the sidelines angrily sat back in the dugout.
I opened a bottle of water and poured it a few sips, but I seemed to feel very unhappy again, and slammed the water bottle in my hand to the ground, saying something in my mouth - needless to say, it was certainly not a nice word.
Arsene Wenger, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief.
A successful defense.
Yelo did not receive a red card.
Arsene Wenger didn't care if the ball was fouled.
But when his assistant Blake whispered in his ear: "This is Yelo's fourth yellow card in the Champions League this season"
Wenger's face froze suddenly.
