Chapter 229: The Magic Flute is melodious, and the Cloud Emperor is rampant
"In stoppage time of the first half, Arsenal exceeded the score again through Lin Yun's incredible S-shaped free kick!
It was a super goal worth recalling countless times, and we couldn't help but think of Robert. Carlos's kick against the sky at the Four Nations Invitational ......"
"This is Lin Yun's 30th goal in the Premier League this season, and with 16 rounds of the league remaining, he may even break the league 50 goal mark!!
Lin Yun ran to the sidelines and celebrated with a meditation that he hadn't used for a long time.
Wenger looked incredulous, constantly pulling his hair, and Pellegrini on the other side was expressionless, even his eyes looked dull, not knowing what he was thinking.
The major live streaming platforms have started to eagerly replay that free kick.
The ball speed was too fast, in fact, everyone didn't see the whole process clearly just now, and now through replays and slow motion, the exaggeration of this goal is really displayed in front of everyone.
Ultra-long distance, super arc, even the angle is at the limit, just a little more deflection of a centimeter of the football can be blocked by the goalpost.
At first, only Arsenal fans applauded at the Etihad Stadium, but the applause was contagious and soon spread to all the stands.
Lin Yun stood up, first high-fived his teammates in celebration, and then waved to the surrounding stands again.
With two minutes of stoppage time remaining, City quickly bounced back from the blow and launched a ferocious attack as soon as the referee blew the kick-off whistle.
Keylor Navas got away from Rosicky with a skilful dribble down the flank and then crossed diagonally into the middle of the box.
Sergio Aguero took the ball and faked a real pass to get it to Silva.
“…… Keylor Navas passed down the flank and crossed to the middle, where Sergio Aguero took the ball and played ...... Feints, passed to Silva, can grasp the opportunity...... Crouch... Arteta has made a meritorious !! ”
Silva didn't even stop the ball, just hit it!
But he's fast, Arteta is faster than him.
As soon as the ball left Silva's right foot, Arteta was already in front of him.
The ball hit Arteta's calf and bounced upwards, and Silva was about to rush over to play again, but Ospina suddenly flew past Arteta and held the ball firmly in his arms.
With the last minute of the first half remaining, Arsenal played another fast attack, the ball was pushed to the right side of the box, and Giroud followed up with a decisive blast.
The football was over the crossbar and the first half of the game was finally over.
Entering the dressing room, Wenger did not criticize the team's performance in the first half, but did not say anything to praise, only to highlight the team's defence.
In this game, N'Golo Kante was rested, and Arteta was the only one on the back line, at most plus Rosicky to help make up for the defense, but it was too difficult for them to rely on two old guys to block Manchester City's offensive line worth more than 100 million, and the main defensive task was still on the defender.
Of course, compared to them, City's back line is under more pressure.
The second half of the game was about to begin, and they came out of the tunnel with sad faces on their faces.
"Okay, the second half began, and in the first half, Arsenal relied on Lin Yun's brace to temporarily lead a goal... Silva's clever pick and pass, Aguero gets rid of the ball!! ”
As soon as the game began, City launched a fast attack, and the ball was unexpectedly picked by David Silva into the middle of the six-yard box.
Sergio Aguero swooped in, chested the ball, changed direction and got rid of it in one go.
However, it was only Mertesacker who had passed, and Koscielny had already made up for it close behind.
Akun had already flashed a tight angle, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to pass Koscielny before shooting, but Koscielny didn't give him the opportunity and cut the ball off with precision.
The ball was passed to the midfield, Rosicky and Sanchez made a one-two in a row to push the ball forward in front of the Manchester City penalty area, but in the end it was successfully tackled by Manchester City, and the blue moon launched a quick counter-attack.
"Man City are here again! Their attack was fierce, and Arsenal seemed to be caught off guard! ”
Frank Lampard, who replaced James Milner, played an important role on the counter-attack, with a pinpoint long ball tearing through the Arsenal defence and sending the ball to the ribs of the box.
Silva received the ball sideways and tapped it softly towards the baseline, and Klich quickly followed, pretending to be a cross.
Bellerin was immediately fooled and stretched out his foot to block, and Krich deflected him to the side with a nimble buckle.
Sergio Aguero and Keylor Navas rushed to meet goal, but instead of immediately getting up and crossing, Klich sent the ball diagonally back to Silva.
Silva calmly scuffled into the top left corner of the net.
The football drew a wonderful arc, and the sound of "poof" came into close contact with the beam.
Arsenal survived.
'Silva and Klich passed in succession, and Silva curled the ball into goal!!
Ouch! It's just a little bit off! The crossbar denied Silva's shot and the Spaniard almost scored twice to help his team equalise!! ”
All kinds of sighs of regret came from the stands, and the Manchester City players on the field also cursed in frustration.
What's worse is that they just missed a great opportunity on their side, and Arsenal's Jedi counterattack came.
The football was quickly passed to Lin Yun's feet.
After the start of the second half, Lin Yun seemed to disappear, which made Manchester City have fantasies that they shouldn't have, and it wasn't until now that Lin Yun received the ball that they woke up like a dream.
Lin Yun held his head high, threw out a big meteor, and soon single-handedly pierced the Manchester City team's half and entered the penalty area.
Lin Yun began his trademark long-distance run in the middle lane, with fast speed and simple movements...... One more, poor Zabaleta, who didn't even have a chance to foul. ”
As soon as Zabaleta was erased, Kompany pressed on.
He is already City's last line of defence.
Striker vs. defender, captain vs. captain.
Lin Yun took small steps with both feet, controlled the ball with the inside of his right foot, and gently moved forward, while Kompany was slightly hunched over, his eyes firmly fixed on the ball at Lin Yun's feet, and slowly retreated as he advanced.
Other Manchester City players could come up at any time to help defend, leaving little time for Lin Yun, and after he controlled the tempo a little, his body suddenly paused, changed to the outside of the instep to touch the ball, and made a posture of changing direction to the right.
Kompany's footsteps also stopped, and his body leaned towards Lin Yun's right.
Lin Yun stepped the ball outward with his right foot, flicked the ball inward with the inside of his foot, and the person was about to rush to the left, but Kompany's footsteps were very steady, although he was shaken away by the first feint, but the center of gravity was quickly adjusted, and he pounced at the first time.
But Lin Yun was still a feint this time.
The inward ball was pushed with his left foot and straight between Kompany's feet.
Kompany quickly folded his legs, but he didn't have time......
Only Joe Hart was left between Lin Yun and the goal, but there was very little space left for Lin Yun to shoot.
He was positioned about two or three meters from the goal, and almost touched the baseline, with the goalkeeper already on the outside to defend the far corner, and the near corner was the post.
Changed to an ordinary striker, at this time, he could only be reckless, but according to Lin Yun's current ball sense and shooting skills, it is estimated that he can have a chance of hitting a far-corner arc ball at about fifty percent, but when he saw Modric who was rushing in out of the corner of his eye, Lin Yun still knocked the ball over without hesitation.
The Magic Flute didn't disappoint him, and happily swallowed the big cake that had been fed to his mouth.
"Ten minutes have passed in the second half, Manchester City has two excellent chances to score, but they both missed the goal by mistake, and Arsenal did not make any mistakes in the opponent's case, and relied on Lin Yun's individual ability to kill a bloody way, and then crossed Modric, Modric sealed his throat with a sword!"
"The Demon Emperor reappeared in the rivers and lakes, although this time it was Lin Yun's pass and Modric's goal scored, but it did not prevent the tacit understanding between the two, they are still the most efficient attack combination in the entire Premier League and even in the whole of Europe, there is no one!"
Modric ran to the sidelines, jumped high, punched hard, and then turned around and opened his arms to meet Lin Yun who ran over.
Lin Yun came to him, turned around, asked him to jump on his back, and then carried him to the stands of the Arsenal goal.
"Lin! Luca! That's great! ”
"Hahaha, this is called the best combination in the world!!"
Modric played on Lin Yun's back for a long time before reluctantly coming down and celebrating with other teammates.
Several of the City players all took almost identical poses: their hands on their hips, looking at each other speechlessly.
Playing at home, two goals behind, it belongs to the category of hard work can still recover the score, and if the luck collapses, it can even be overtaken.
Manchester City did not give up and still dominated the attack.
Arsenal changed the aggressive style of play in the first half and became a lot more restrained, quite a bit of a strong man, but when Lin Yun began to strengthen his running, and he could almost be seen in the entire midfield, Arsenal's offensive began to be activated again and became stronger.
When he gets the ball, the defender has no idea whether he wants to burst or pass or shoot, let alone if he does.
"Lin Yun faked the fax, and suddenly got up and hit the door, but unfortunately it was slightly higher than the beam......"
"Arteta has a long pass in the backfield, Lin Yun and Modric cooperate in a one-two, cut inside, and go straight through! Giroud single-handed...... Offside? ”
"Arsenal sent a free kick quickly, Lin Yun dribbled the ball in the middle, and passed with his heel!
Rosicky shoots from outside the box with the instep of his foot, the goalkeeper does a great job and finally deflects the ball off the line for an Arsenal corner. ”
Arteta drove the ball out and Mertesacker grabbed the first point and headed it over!
Sanchez gave the ball to Lin Yun, who hung the golden hook upside down...... Ouch, the posture is beautiful, but it's just too right. ”
City were completely passive but gradually found their rhythm when Arsenal missed a succession of shots.
In the 69th minute of the game, Monreal cut in on the side, received the ball on the side of the penalty area, and suddenly came with a burst of shot according to the instructions of "touching Hartmont's kick".
The ball slammed diagonally towards the goal, which was saved by Hart with one hand.
Giroud rushed to shoot first, but Kompany moved faster and cleared the ball into midfield.
Frank Lampard flicked a long ball straight into the falling ball and it landed on the left side of the Arsenal penalty area.
Monreal assists the way forward, leaving a big gap there.
Arteta scrambled over to wipe Monreal's butt, but Sergio Aguero gritted his teeth and saved the ball before it was ready to fly off the line.
The audience burst into exclamations.
“…… Monreal shot from distance, but unfortunately it was too difficult from this angle, Hart saved the ball, Kompany cleared it with a big foot, Lampard pinpointed the weak point and Aguero got the ball! Cross! ”
The ball was passed to the goalkeeper and Koscielny jumped high in front of the goal, but it didn't touch the ball and it flew straight to the back post.
Navas looked at the ball flying towards him, calmly parked, sideways, got rid of it, hit the goal...... Will.
"Shh~~"
"Navas shoots, Ospina reacts quickly, blocks the ball with his body, Mertesacker clears the ball with a big foot, and it's Arsenal's turn to counterattack!"
Mertesacker's clearance was not a blind kick, but a shot that focused on Modric's position.
The Magic Flute chested the ball and lifted it over Klich's head and into the box.
Giroud jumped high with his back to goal and also made an upside-down hook.
Although Lin Yun's barb didn't enter, he finally hit it, and his posture was very chic and beautiful, and Giroud was ...... A little embarrassed.
Even if the ball didn't hit, the posture of the barb was not decent, and the whole person fell directly to the ground, and it seemed that he had injured himself.
The ball landed next to Giroud and bounced.
Sanchez and Zabaleta rushed over together, and in the end Zabaleta was better and cleared the ball with a header, but it was so good that he couldn't die, and the football was pushed to the feet of Modric again.
Fernandinho didn't have time to think about it and immediately tackled towards Modric's location.
Luka Modric unloaded the ball in stretch motion, his eyes constantly watching City's penalty area, as if he were unaware of the impending danger.
When Fernandinho tackled to his side, he took two steps back and pulled the ball back lightly to deftly avoid the dangerous tackle.
Before the compliments of the major commentators were delivered, Modric, who pulled the ball back, had already completed a smooth pick-up pass.
The ball draws a parabola and falls five meters in front of the right side of the goal.
Lin Yun came to the football landing point under the desperate gaze of the Manchester City fans in the stadium.
Kompany had actually been paying attention to Lin Yun's movements, and followed Lin Yun closely when he started, just between him and the goal when Lin Yun received the ball.
Lin Yun picked up the ball with his back to Kompany, then turned and walked past him, the movements were silky and coherent as if they had been rehearsed a thousand times.
The football fell again, Lin Yun turned around again, and once again hung the golden hook upside down.
This barb is a bit childish.
Obviously, a volley could be solved, but he just wanted to save face for his barb just now, and shot again.
When the football fell, Lin Yun jumped up, his arms spread out to both sides, his left leg was slightly bent, his right leg was straightened, and his right foot was heavily pumped into the middle and upper part of the football.
Many Manchester City fans in the stands couldn't bear to watch anymore.
Joe. Hart had already abandoned the ball when Lin Yun picked the ball past Kompany.
Experience told him that waiting for Lin Yun to shoot and then saving was no different from gambling on his life, and it was better to try boldly before he hit the goal.
As a result, this attempt only allowed him to appreciate Lin Yun's wonderful barb again at a close distance......
