On the evening of April 12, BJ time, the 2012-13 UEFA Champions League semi-finals match draw ceremony was held in UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, and the four semi-final teams drew their respective opponents, Arsenal and Dortmund will compete with La Liga for the finals, and the latest odds offered by the European mainstream spinach companies after the semi-final draw show that the two teams in La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona, are still the two most favored favorites.

After the semi-final draw was announced, Bwin, a well-known sports spinach company in Europe, updated the odds for the first time, Real Madrid became the biggest favorite to win the championship with 1 to 3, but the British William Hill company was more optimistic that Barcelona could win the final crown, and opened the lowest odds of 1 to 2.87.

In terms of third and fourth place, the two companies are surprisingly unanimous: Arsenal are the third favourites at 5.6 to 1, while Borussia Dortmund are bottom at 6.5 to 1......

With almost two weeks to go until the start of the game, the hype and hype are already in full swing.

For the reunion of Barcelona and Arsenal, even the Times believes that the La Liga giants have a better chance of winning.

"This season, Barcelona have won 5, drawn 3 and lost 2 in 10 Champions League games, scoring 18 goals and conceding 10 goals;

Arsenal won 6, drew 2 and lost 2, scoring 19 goals and conceding 13 goals.

The gap between the two sides is not very large, and it can be seen that both teams suffer from serious star dependence, Messi accounted for 8 of Barcelona's 18 goals, while Arsenal's 19 goals accounted for 7, even if the two sides were tied, but in terms of past records, Barcelona obviously has more experience in the Champions League semi-finals.

Since the 2002-2003 season, Barcelona has only missed the Champions League once, reached the round of 16 twice, the round of 8 once, the round of 4 three times, and won the championship three times; Arsenal failed to qualify from the group once, four times in the round of 16, three times in the round of eight, one time in the last four and one time as runners-up.

In terms of player value, Messi, Andres Iniesta, and Cesc Fabregas have all entered the global T10, while Arsenal have not even made a single player in the top 20.

All things considered, it's clear that Barcelona has a bigger advantage......"

The newspapers "As" and "Marca" were even earlier in the sentence of death for Arsenal and Dortmund.

"Arsene Wenger is unfortunate that if he were able to draw against Borussia Dortmund, he and his team might still have hope of reaching the final and equalling their best Champions League result, but unfortunately he can only watch a Spanish derby in the Champions League final on his own doorstep......

Most of London is wailing.

Although the slogan of revenge has been played, most people are actually not optimistic, and everyone's general hunch is that they are afraid that the old hatred has not been avenged, and new hatred will be added......

It was in this oppressive atmosphere that Arsenal continued their league journey.

On 13 April, Arsenal host Norwich City.

Arsene Wenger continued to play the same formation that had beaten Juventus away from home, with a focus on experimenting with his two-striker.

Judging from the results of that game, this formation was actually not successful, because although it was a victory, the one-goal victory was full of chance, and the second half of the game was pressed by Juventus almost all the time, so most people were not optimistic about this formation.

Who knew that after another 4-4-2 in the league, the Gunners played a crushing game.

From the start of the game, Ramsey and Walcott flew on both wings, tearing apart the opposition defence from both sides.

In the 20th minute, Ramsey picked up a pass in the ribs of the penalty area, Giroud chested the ball and swept it to the goal, and Lin Yun easily pushed it into the net.

Five minutes later, Theo Walcoat played the ball in almost from the same position on the other side of the box, and Lin Yun calmly circled the opposition defender and fired a nanny assist for Giroud.

Giroud didn't waste his chance and slotted home with ease.

2-0.

In the second half, Arsenal continued to strike hard.

In the 58th minute, Arteta's long-range shot was blocked, and Lin Yun made a supplementary shot to expand the score to 3-0.

After this goal, Wenger replaced Lin Yun, but substitute Cazorla put the icing on the cake to make the score 4-0.

Arsenal are in red-hot form, on a three-game winning streak in recent times.

At the same time, Manchester United and Manchester City also won 2-0 and 1-0 respectively at the top of the table, leaving the top-three in the league unchanged.

Lin Yun has scored nine goals in four league games, plus seven goals in the Champions League, and he has scored 16 goals for Arsenal since he joined.

The question at the signing ceremony that "Van Persie scored 10 goals in his debut season at Arsenal, how many do you think you can score" became a joke.

Although Van Persie is still in hot form and is the most powerful contender for the Premier League Golden Boot this season, if you compare it with the first season, he is not even worthy of lifting shoes for Lin Yun.

General Fan also answered questions about Lin Yun positively for the first time in the interview.

'The Premier League is a very competitive league and it's not easy to score goals here, Lin is very good and it didn't take him any time to adapt here, which is valuable, but he's still very young and the most important thing to do at the moment is to maintain his consistency......

It's obviously a joke to talk about consistency with a player who has scored in 10 games in a row.

4 Champions League games, two national team games, 4 league games, Lin Yun has scored every game, not to mention England, the whole of Europe is watching when he will stop scoring.

On April 16, in the 34th round of the Premier League, Arsenal played against Everton.

Lin Yun started again, but this time it was Podolski who appeared with him up front.

The game was played very closely, and neither side got many chances in the first half, Lin Yun's performance seemed a little sluggish, and all three shots hit the plane.

The start of the second half was almost a continuation of the first, and just when Everton's defenders were smug that they had managed to do something that neither Bayern nor Juventus' counterparts did, Lin Yun burst out.

In the 71st minute, Wilshere went straight in the middle, and Lin Yun almost dribbled the ball in front of the goal in a rampage attitude, and sent the ball into the corner of the goal with a light stab.

Two minutes later, substitute Olivier Giroud sent in a clever pass, and Lin Yun calmly crossed the defender and smashed the ball into the top right corner of the net, scoring twice again.

What made him hate it was that as soon as the ball was scored, Wenger was in a hurry to replace him......

"Only Wenger can stop Lin Yun from scoring" has become a hot stalk in the entire European football scene for a while, and Arsenal has contributed a fresh joke to everyone, but compared with the jokes that made Nana fans feel embarrassed in the past, the Gunners are somewhat full of tsundere flavor this time.

Everyone knows that Wenger is accumulating energy for the upcoming Champions League semifinals, and naturally he will not blame him for being impersonal, but is more looking forward to whether a suffocated Lin Yun will break out in the game against Barcelona.

On April 19, in the 35th round of the Premier League and Arsenal's last game before the Champions League semi-finals, the Gunners challenged Fulham away.

Lin Yun sat on the bench this time.

Chelsea and Tottenham are pressing forward step by step, and the task of fighting for the top four this season has not yet been completed, but Wenger is now focused on the Champions League, if it is not for the maintenance of form, he is eager to send all the substitutes today.

As a result, under the deliberate clumsiness, the two sides really played to 75 minutes or 0-0.

Wenger only waved his hand at this time and let Lin Yun play.

Lin Yun's fans were so angry that they almost vomited blood.

"It's only been fifteen minutes, this is to be comfortable to interrupt Lin Yun's streak of goals, right?"

"Sure enough, Wenger is Lin Yun's biggest enemy."

"Old thief, I don't share the sky with you!"

"What do you think? Fifteen minutes is not enough? Who to look down on? ”

Lin Yun is still confident that he can continue to score today, but I don't know if it was the "super substitute" that played a role, and even Wenger couldn't stop him from scoring a hat-trick today.

In the 77th minute, a volley from a small angle broke the net.

In the 86th minute, he scored after the successful anti-offside position.

In the 93rd minute, after receiving a corner kick from Arteta, he pushed the ball into the corner......

Suarez, who is now a big hit in Lee Kee, has only scored 4 goals in 13 games in his first season in the Premier League, while Lin Yun has scored 21 goals in 10 games for Arsenal since his debut, plus 9 goals for the national team, his statistics have come to 30 goals in 12 games.

The strongest new star, well deserved.

Just when everyone was exclaiming who could stop Lin Yun, the Champions League semifinals were finally long overdue.
