Chapter 45 Like a demon lord in the sky, he is really a Tai Sui god in the world

Ahead of the Champions League semi-finals, Manchester United also played their 34th round of the Premier League.

The old Red Devils Ryan Giggs provided two assists and the new Red Devils Robin van Persie scored a hat-trick as United beat Aston Villa 3-0 at Old Trafford to secure the 2012-2013 Premier League title 16 points ahead of Manchester City.

It was the Reds' 20th top-flight title and their 13th Premier League title.

And for the Gunners, the most important thing is that Manchester United's first game after winning the title is to go to the Emirates Stadium to show the championship style.

As is customary, they had to line up to welcome the champions at that time, which was obviously worse than killing them.

Fortunately, there is also the fig leaf of the Champions League.

Manchester United fell in the quarter-finals, while Arsenal not only made it through the quarter-finals, but also doubled in the quarter-finals to reach the semi-finals.

If Barcelona can get Barcelona in the semi-finals again, then they will undoubtedly have more confidence to face Manchester United's old enemies.

Against this backdrop, Arsenal have one more reason to give their all for this game.

On April 22, the Barcelona team arrived in London.

The Champions League-themed theme can be seen everywhere in the city, and the streets are filled with team flags or fans wearing shirts.

Gunners fans welcomed Barcelona and Cesc Fabregas with shrill boos and high middle fingers.

In the pre-match press conference, although Guardiola's face was calm, he could still make people feel his hidden spirit.

'Arsenal have always been a great team, not only do they have a long tradition, they have a great coach and we came today to win but we all know it's not easy......

Arsenal have a lot of good players in their squad and yes, we've taken note of the youngster and there is no doubt that he's going to be a big target for us, well, unless Arsene Wenger puts him on the bench (laughs......

Will Cesc Fabregas play? We'll find out tomorrow......"

Wenger's face has been gloomy these days, as if he was an old father who immediately beat the mandarin duck after discovering his daughter's early love, and the stinky girl ran away from home in a blink of an eye.

Naturally, he was inevitably asked Fabregas.

"I don't want to talk too much about the players and just the games that are going to start......

05-06 season? That's all in the past, Barcelona is not the Barcelona of the past, Arsenal is not the Arsenal of seven years ago, we have a long wait, we have younger players, everything is going in a better direction......

Lin and Messi? I would like both to ...... if I could"

There was no verbal war, no cynicism, and everything was calm, as before a rainstorm.

April 24, Race Day.

Many of the biggest names in English football have come to the Emirates Stadium.

Even Arsenal owner Stan, who almost never comes to watch a game at home. Kroenke was all present in his box.

A special guest came to Arsenal's dressing room.

Everyone stood up the moment they saw him.

King of Highbury, Thierry. Henry......

Everyone immediately applauded enthusiastically and welcomed the arrival of the legend of yesteryear.

With a hearty smile on his face, Henry high-fived the players one by one.

He deliberately chose Lin Yun to be the last one, and when he exchanged palms, he suddenly held Lin Yun's hand tightly and pulled him closer to him, "Are you ready?" ”

"Of course," Lin Yun suddenly said with a low emotional intelligence, "Will you also go to the away team's locker room later?" ”

"Huh?"

Henry was stunned for a moment, and the atmosphere in the locker room immediately became a little awkward.

In the 2005-2006 season, Thierry Henry was just one step away from winning his first Champions League trophy, or more accurately, 24 minutes away.

But the final result is known, Arsenal lost 1-2 and fell to the nearest place to the Big Ears Cup.

After that, the arrogant King of Guns could only choose to bow to fate: since he couldn't beat it, then join it......

It turns out that he seems to be on the right track.

In the 2008-09 season, he finally reached the top of Europe, but at that time he was no longer the king of the guns in Highbury, but only Barcelona striker Thierry. Henry.

People succumbed to Messi's strength, lamented Eto'o's awesomeness, and then praised his ...... Choose?

Lin Yun's words were like a knife to his heart, but the emperor's reaction was still online, and he immediately smiled: "Of course not, after all, there is no statue of me at the entrance of Camp Nou." ”

"That's good," Lin Yun laughed out loud, "Welcome back, Emperor Henry." ”

"It's a pity that I can't fight with everyone anymore......"

……

The two sides entered the players' tunnel, and Lin Yun saw Messi up close for the first time, and couldn't help but take a few more looks.

It's not as short as it seems...

Messi is used to the attention, but he still shows a certain amount of attention to this current hottest demon star in the whole of Europe, and deliberately nodded to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun also smiled and nodded in response.

The Champions League theme song sounds, and the players enter the field.

Thierry Henry had also sat on the sidelines, but it was not him who was in the most complicated mood at the entire Emirates Stadium, but Cesc Fabregas on the bench.

He thought he could accept all the insults calmly, but when the scolding really came to him like an overwhelming blast, he couldn't help but tremble.

Like Henry, he was now looking at Lin Yun, as if he was looking at his former self.

So, how long can you last it......

One year, two years, three years...... When you grow older day by day, and you don't win the championship every year, can you still stick here?

He Wei obviously also noticed Henry's gaze, and couldn't help but start teasing.

"Haha, the classic picture is here, 37-year-old Henry is sitting there, looking at the past with affectionate eyes, it is his 17-year-old shadow......"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the information and found that he had made a fuss, because Henry was born in August 77, and he only died 36 this year.

"Ouch! Henry's birthday is one day different from Lin Yun! Henry is August 17th, Lin Yun is August 16th, is this the will of heaven in the dark? Lin Yun is destined to take over Henry's class and become the king of the new generation of guns? ”

The fans were amused.

"Henry II, huh?"

"Don't come to touch porcelain, I, Lin Huang, am going to the best in the history of the Premier League."

"The shadow of the 17-year-old, Lin Yun played Barcelona in the Champions League at the age of 17, and Henry was still playing soy sauce in Ligue 1 when he was 17 years old, right?"

"Well, how nice it would be if these two met at their peak, well, plus Fab..."

"Henry's praise,, rough!"

"Henry + Lin Yun? The locations overlap, right? ”

"Henry can hit the left, you fake fan!"

"Messi Messi, number one in the universe!"

"Damn, there is an undercover agent!!"

Arsenal serves, and Lin Yun comes to the center circle to stand.

At this moment, he is at the center of the whole football world.

I don't know how many fans around the world are watching this game in their own way, at least hundreds of millions of eyes are watching his every move.

Of course, Lin Yun can't feel the sight in front of the camera, but under the tens of thousands of eyes at the Emirates Stadium, there is still a lot of pressure, but I have to say that "Mr. Big Scene" is indeed a good thing, although he can't do it, but he also doesn't have much tension.

Many people on the field are pretending to do some small warm-up movements, twisting their waists, pressing their legs, and running in place, in addition to the fact that they really need to move their bodies, the most important practical actions are to hide their nervousness, but Lin Yun stood there motionless on the ball, like a curious baby, looking relaxed here and there, looking like he had never seen the world......

"The game is about to start, Lin Yun looks relaxed, which is probably the biggest benefit of playing at home...... Coach Zhang, how do you think Arsenal will play today? Arsene Wenger shouldn't be conservative at home, right? ”

"Hehe, I feel that the most important thing Arsenal needs to do is to try to grab points at home, after all, the next game will be at Camp Nou, AC Milan have been poured four there, if you can't take advantage of the home game to establish a big enough advantage, then Arsenal is really a bit hanging in this round."

"I don't know if they can replicate the start of the game against Bayern Munich and get off to a dream start...... Okay, with the referee's whistle, the game begins. ”

"Let's start with a brief introduction to the starting line-ups of both sides.

Playing away from home, Barcelona lined up in a two-striker formation.

Goalkeepers: 1-Valdés;

Defenders: 2-Alves, 3-Pique, 15-Baltra, 18-Alba;

Midfielders: 16-Busquets, 6-Xavi, 8-Iniesta, 9-Sanchez;

Forwards: 10-Messi, 17-Pedro.

Arsene Wenger's line-up is almost identical, 4-4-2, but he should be more focused on attacking from the flanks than Barcelona, depending on whether the wings of Theo Walcott and Cazorla can fly.

Goalkeepers: 21-Fabianski;

Defenders: 25-Jenkinson, 4-Mertesacker, 5-Vermaelen, 17-Monreal;

Midfielders: 19-Cazorla, 8-Arteta, 10-Wilshere, 14-Walcott;

Forwards: 11-Lin Yun, 12-Giroud.

Arsenal's defensive line doesn't know if it can withstand Messi's impact, and if it can catch it, Arsenal is not hopeless......"

"Messi's active area is actually still more right, opposite Arsenal's left-back, that is, Monreal, this is a player who has just transferred from La Liga, and Messi should not be unfamiliar."

"Speaking of Arsenal, the left-back is a bit excessive, but the right-back is relatively scarce, you see Gibbs is left-back, Monreal is left-back, Vermaelen can play centre-back and left-back, but right-back only Jenkinson...... Hey, this wave of offense seems to have been launched! ”

Barcelona deliberately pinched Walcoat at the beginning, so that Arsenal's speed could not be improved, but I didn't expect Arsenal to focus on the middle at the beginning.

Arteta pressed forward, and Cazorla also moved to the middle for the first time.

Wilshere received Giroud's return pass and first steadied the defenders, then suddenly picked up speed and dribbled forward to the halfway line and found Arteta with a long ball close to the ground.

Arteta kicked the ball straight to Cazorla.

Cazorla faced Busquets' pressing, quickly gave the ball to Lin Yun, and then stepped forward into the box.

Lin Yun leaned on Pique and steadily knocked the ball horizontally in front of Cazorla.

Alba rushed in to intercept and Cazorla did not dare to hesitate and immediately pushed the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal.

The ball was fast and fast, but unfortunately it was a little less powerful and was saved by Valdés on the ground.

Baltra and Giroud rushed to the ball together, one wanted to clear the ball, the other wanted to hit the goal, and it was not known who touched the ball, but in the end the ball was kicked to the left, cheapening Alves.

The Brazilian defender took the ball and walked away, but Lin Yun rushed over with Arteta, he didn't dare to stick to the ball, and quickly gave the ball to Busquets.

Professor Boo tapped the ball straight forward and gave it to Harvey, who also kicked the ball out, seemingly unremarkable, but it hit Jenkinson with precision.

Andres Iniesta arrived tacitly and pushed the ball inside to smash it into the Arsenal penalty area.

Jenkinson raised his hand and shouted offside as he turned to chase back, but Iniesta and the referee didn't bird him.

"Jenkinson failed to make an offside position, Iniesta is about to enter the box and Mertesacker is out! Messi and Pedro were ready to outflank the goal, and Monreal came over to fill in the void left by Mertesacker...... Ouch, this tackle is very decisive......"

Mertesacker fell to the ground and slid the ball cleanly out of bounds as he was about to step on the line of the penalty area.

Jenkinson arrived in a hurry, pulled Mert Sack up, and patted him gratefully on the shoulder.

Barcelona quickly drove the ball out of the sideline, and Messi raised his foot to cushion the ball to Xiaobai and quickly turned into the penalty area.

Xiaobai also used a shuttlecock-like action to kick the ball in front of him.

Vermaelen had already seen everything through and headed the ball out before Messi could get it.

Wilshere was just about to stop the ball on his chest, but he didn't expect to kill Sanchez halfway, and after cutting the ball away, he immediately plugged it straight and sent the ball to Pedro.

Sabre did not hesitate to shoot with his foot raised.

Monreal stretched his leg at the same time and narrowly blocked the ball......

Barcelona was dominated by anti-visitors, attacking wave after wave, constantly putting pressure on Arsenal's goal, and more than ten minutes passed.

'Barcelona were very attacking and Arsenal were quite passive, fifteen minutes on, Barcelona had four shots on goal, one of which was on target, and Arsenal have not had any good chances until now except for the push from Cazorla in the opening game.

Seeing that the football was passed to Messi's feet again, the hearts of the home fans couldn't help but lift it fiercely.

Messi seems to be determined to play a dragon this time, taking the ball directly along the middle to the Arsenal penalty area.

Arteta didn't dare to take his feet lightly, blocked in front of him steadily, and slowly followed back, but Messi, who was originally stepping on small steps to dribble the ball, suddenly picked up speed, and after touching the ball with his left and right feet, he deftly rushed past him.

"It's over......"

Arteta had just said something in his mind, and the next second he saw the ball roll to his side.

It turned out that the moment Messi wiped him, Vermaelen rushed over, and without hesitation, he tackled the ball from the side, just right to shovel the ball from Messi's feet.

Arteta didn't have time to think about it and immediately kicked the ball away.

He was really scared, there was no discipline at all with this kick, he just wanted to kick as far as possible.

As a result, the football flew directly into the Barcelona penalty area and was about to fall in front of the goal.

Lin Yun had been walking near the penalty area, and immediately turned around the moment the football flew and rushed towards Barcelona's goal.

Pique had been staring at him, how could he pass so easily, he hurriedly stepped forward and slammed into his shoulder with all his might.

The results can be imagined......

Lin Yun didn't have anything to do, but he himself sat down on the ground in embarrassment as if he had been hit by a speeding train.

Baltra also saw the football, and his reaction was not much slower, and he immediately rushed over, and he was still closer to Lin Yun and Pique, and he was ready to leap to clear the siege, but he didn't expect Lin Yun to suddenly rush to his side, and then overtake strongly.

"Buy Karma's ......"

"Hiss~~"

"Pull him!!"

"It's miserable......"

After Lin Yun ate the two of them in a row, he suddenly jumped up while running, his body was in the air, and his left foot was kicked at the football.

Majin Flying Kick!

"Bang!"

The ball was kicked and flew into the goal.

The entire Emirates Stadium immediately felt like a nuclear bomb had been detonated, and crazy screams rushed in.

“GOAL!!!!! It's Lin again! Or Lin! Everything-crushing sprints, accurate landing predictions, and crazy flying kicks! In the 16th minute of the game, Barcelona fell behind 0-1 away! ”

"There is really nothing to say about this goal, Pique and Baltra tried their best, but unfortunately they still couldn't stop Lin Yun, Barcelona fans must miss Puyol very much at this time, right?"

After Zhang Lu finished speaking, he looked at He Wei with frowns, obviously knowing the virtue of this person, and signaled him to make two sentences at this time.

He Wei didn't know if he had been prepared or really came casually, anyway, a mouth was the old Water Margin.

"It's like a demon lord in the sky, it's really a Tai Sui god in the world!

If Messi represents the ultimate in technology, then Lin Yun is the ultimate in violent aesthetics!

Pique and Baltra are both very good defenders, they successfully froze Lin Yun for 16 minutes, but the biggest difference between offensive players and defensive players is here, defensive players need to be unnegligent throughout the whole process to get full scores, and offensive players often only need a flash of light to become the hero of the whole team!

1-0, Arsenal temporarily leads at home, the most important thing is that Lin Yun has finally opened, Barcelona should be careful......"
