football killer

Chapter 409 Against Arsenal ([-])
There is a saying in football games, that is, no matter how fast a person is, he cannot be faster than football.

At this moment, this sentence proved to be correct again at the Highbury Stadium. Although Lehmann's reaction was very quick, the ball still rushed into the net before Lehmann blocked it.

"Coooooooooooooooal~~~~Alan George, when the game progressed to the 17th minute of the second half, Liverpool once again pierced Arsenal's goal with a free kick. 2:0, Liverpool is leading Arsenal 2:0 at the moment, and George has already scored twice."

Without any suspense, George once again helped Liverpool expand the score on the field with a free kick.

"Damn, damn it, tell the Brazilians to warm up, hurry up." Seeing the ball go into his goal again, Wenger couldn't sit still again, stood up angrily and cursed.

Wenger doesn't understand what's wrong with his team, why meeting Liverpool now is really like meeting God, no matter how hard he tries, he can't beat Liverpool, what is going on.Is it just because Liverpool's head coach has changed, or is it because Liverpool have a young captain?

Thinking of this, Wenger couldn't help but make a decision, he would rather believe it or not, whether he would put the captain of the team on a young player at some point.

At this moment, Fabregas, who is still training hard in the Arsenal youth team, does not know that the reason why he has become the captain of Arsenal's first team at a young age is inseparable from Wenger's thoughts and George's influence at this time.

In the crucial game of six points, they were already behind by two goals at home, so how could Wenger not be angry.At this moment, Wenger seems to find that the league title this season seems to be getting farther and farther away from himself and Arsenal.

However, the Frenchman has never been a person who will give up easily. Although he has fallen behind by two goals, the Frenchman has not given up yet.

Thinking of this, Wenger gave instructions to the assistant coach Pat Rice beside him.

"Uh~ that Brazilian?" Rice, who was on the side, couldn't help being taken aback after hearing Wenger's words, and asked subconsciously.

"Damn it, who else but Edu!" Wenger yelled angrily when he realized that his old partner Rice hadn't even figured out what he meant.

"OK~OK!" Hearing Wenger's words, Rice knew that Wenger was very angry at this time, so he immediately comforted Wenger and started to walk towards Edu who was on the bench.

"It's beautiful, it's simply amazing. I like this feeling. I like the way the opposing coach is anxious and yelling. Look at me, so calm. This is the demeanor that a coach of a strong team and a wealthy team should have." Looking at the score on the field and hearing Wenger's roar coming from his ear, Lao Bei sat on the bench seat very comfortably, and said lightly.

After hearing Lao Bei's words, the people around couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.Why don't you yell and curse at the sidelines all the time, and you're really thick-skinned for saying this now.

Of course, although the surrounding Liverpool players and assistant coach Thompson and others all have the same thoughts, no one will speak out their thoughts at this time, especially when Lao Bei is still on the sidelines.

"Edu, come here!" Seeing Edu who stood up from the bench, took off his coat and prepared to warm up, Wenger frowned, thought for a while and shouted loudly, preparing to give Edu some orders, of course, he was also waiting for the opportunity of a dead ball.

"Boss, what do you want from me?" At this moment, anyone who is not a fool can know how angry Wenger is at this moment. Therefore, when Edu heard Wenger's shout, he didn't dare to neglect, and hurried over to ask.

"Brazilians, what do you think of our current situation?" Wenger did not directly ask Edu what to do when he played, but asked Edu instead.

"En ~ BOSS ~ To be honest, our situation is very bad at present." Edu never thought that Wenger would ask himself about this matter. After reacting, after a short thought, Edu carefully expressed his opinion.

"Yes, our situation is very bad, so I need your help now. After you play, form a three-man midfielder with your fellow countryman Silva and Vieira. You go to the left, pin down the guy named Gerrard for me, and strengthen the defense. At the same time, tell the four guys in front that I will stay in Liverpool's half if they are killed, and attack with all their strength, understand?"

"Uh~ I understand the coach, but that Gerrard guy is not an easy guy to deal with." Edu nodded, recalling Gerrard who had been alive and well on the court, and said with some worry.

"Hehe, it's okay, Brazilian, I believe in you. I believe you can do it. Don't put too much pressure on it. It's okay if you can't do it, but I will find you a new club."

Hearing Edu's worry, Wenger smiled and patted Edu's shoulder to comfort and encourage, but when Edu heard Wenger's words of encouragement and comfort, he suddenly felt that Wenger was like a devil from hell at the moment, except for two horns on his head, everything else was the same.

"Understood, boss, don't worry, I will definitely crucify that guy." Hearing Wenger's obvious threat, Edu swallowed his saliva, nodded immediately and assured him.

Finally, in the 21st minute of the second half, when Smicer was fighting with Vieira, the ball finally hit Smicer's left foot and rolled out of the baseline.

"Well, put on a midfielder, replace a defender, and finally give it a go. Well, since this is the case, then I will give you a chance to convince you."

Seeing that Arsenal made a substitution and replaced Ashley Cole with Edu, Lao Bei stood up, came to the sidelines and made gestures, indicating that the disciples on the field began to play defensive counterattacks.

However, Lao Bei seemed to be too excited. From the second half of the game until now, it seems that Liverpool has been playing defensive counterattacks, and there is no need for Lao Bei to order or remind him.

"Oh~ Arsenal started to change players. Professor Wenger replaced Ashley Cole with Brazilian Edu. It seems that he is ready to give it a go." Seeing Arsenal's changes and changes, the commentator also expressed his opinion.

Edu came on the field and immediately gave Wenger's instructions to everyone. The Arsenal players also knew that time was running out. Arsenal were still two goals behind their opponents. This was the last moment and they needed to give it a go.

In the 25th minute of the second half, Henry received an overhead pass from Bergkamp, ​​directly used his speed to throw off Carragher, who was close to the defense, and quickly entered Liverpool's penalty area. Before the ball landed, he volleyed directly.

It's a pity that Henry's beautiful shot did not score a goal, because Dudek had already started to attack as early as the moment Bergkamp passed the ball.When Henry shot, Dudek was already two meters away from Henry. It can be said that he basically blocked the angle of Henry's shot.

And Henry was somewhat affected by the score lag, and hastily chose to shoot. The ball hit Dudek's shoulder directly and popped out of the baseline.

If it was Henry in normal times, if he was not nervous at this time, facing Dudek who was attacking, Henry would definitely choose to lob or stop the ball to pass Dudek, and then push the empty goal.

No matter which method you choose, at least there are nine chances of scoring a goal.It's a pity that at this moment Henry was eager to equalize the score and lost his usual calm.Therefore, an excellent opportunity was wasted in vain.

"Oh my God, what a pity, Lady Luck is really no longer with Arsenal today." Seeing such a good opportunity, he still couldn't score a goal.After much deliberation, the commentator can only attribute this reason to the fact that Lady Luck is on Liverpool's side, not Arsenal's.

"Damn it, we can't score a goal like this. Is it true that Lady Luck is not on our Arsenal side?" Wenger couldn't help cursing seeing such a good opportunity and failing to score a goal.

Looking at Henry, who was standing at the shooting spot, with his head down and a pity expression, Wenger was full of anger.Wenger felt that it was all bullshit, whether it was luck or not. Henry failed to score this goal, which was entirely because of Henry's own poor shooting skills.

Thinking of this, Wenger stared at Henry, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: Damn, when this game is over, I won't be called Wenger if I don't drill you to death and let you shoot a thousand consecutive shots a day.

Oh~ Poor Henry, I'm afraid Henry doesn't know yet, it is precisely because he wasted this opportunity that he will be taken care of and entertained by Wenger every day in the days of Arsenal in the future.

But not to mention, Henry, who has been specially taken care of, has become more and more proficient and exquisite in his shooting skills, which has also led to Henry quickly becoming the ranks of the world's top killer players.

"Campbell!" Pires took a corner kick. This time Campbell finally earned a breath for Arsenal, grabbed the first point, and smashed the ball hard to Liverpool's goal.

The ball flew quickly towards Liverpool's goal and passed through Dudek's hands.Just when all the Arsenal fans were about to cheer, a foot suddenly appeared in front of the ball and blocked the ball directly on the goal line.

"Campbell! Goal in~~~uh~~~ Riise, my God, Riise saved Liverpool at the last moment and ruined Arsenal's excellent goal again."

That's right, when Arsenal took the corner, Riise was standing in the middle of the goal line to the left of the goal.When Campbell hit the goal with a header, although Dudek failed to stop the ball, Riise reacted quickly and blocked the ball immediately.

Seeing this scene, the entire Highbury Stadium suddenly erupted with a huge burst of regret. After regretting that Arsenal had wasted another good chance to score, it was followed by endless insults.At this moment, Riise is the Satan in the eyes of Arsenal fans, a mortal enemy, no matter men, women or children, at this moment, they will not be stingy with their saliva, and keep "greeting" Riise.

It's a pity that none of this can affect Riise. After blocking the ball, Riise quickly points the ball to the left. The ball is taken by Kewell. Kewell takes the ball again and quickly rushes towards Arsenal's half.

With Kewell advancing so quickly, it is clear that Liverpool wants to have another defensive counterattack.

But this time Liverpool's defensive counterattack didn't work. Kewell didn't even enter Arsenal's half with the ball before he was cut off very fiercely by Edu.

There is no way, Wenger said that before he played, he was only a substitute at Arsenal, other giants definitely looked down on him, and if he really left Arsenal, he would only be able to join a mid-tier team.

Although he is a substitute at Arsenal, he is also the best candidate for Wenger when the midfielder is replaced.So what about the substitute, at least he can participate in various competitions at Arsenal and get a good salary.If I really leave Arsenal, I am afraid that all these will leave me.

For his own happy life, Edu has no choice but to work hard.Therefore, Edu desperately chased after Kewell. Without Kewell's attention, he made a sideways sliding tackle from behind Kewell and broke the ball under Kewell's feet.

"Captain!" After breaking the ball, Edu didn't care about Kewell who rolled seven or eight meters on the ground due to inertia. Instead, he yelled and passed the ball to Vieira.

Vieira didn't pass the ball. When receiving the pass from Edu, he directly pushed the ball forward, followed him with strides to catch up, and shot furiously, and a world wave came.

"Ha!" Faced with Vieira's powerful long-range shot, Dudek did not dare to be careless, and could only shoot Vieira's long-range shot with both hands, pushing the bottom line again.

Arsenal once again got a corner kick. Brother Campbell quickly retreated to prepare to defend after the header. At this time, he rushed up from the backcourt quickly again, preparing to grab points in the penalty area. It was really hard for our brother Campbell.

"There are not many opportunities, time is running out, you must seize the opportunity." Following the referee's whistle, Pires shouted loudly in his heart, and at the same time quickly passed the ball to the center of Liverpool's penalty area.

At this time, the center of the restricted area was already crowded with people, and everyone was pushing each other, preparing to compete for the first point.Seeing this scene, Dudek didn't dare to be careless, and tensed his nerves and legs.

"Go away!" When Campbell and Hypia jumped up at the same time to fight for the first point, there was a sudden roar, and a tall figure rushed over quickly, and then jumped up high in the momentum of the sprint, and grabbed the first point between Campbell and Hypia.

"Cooooooooooooooooooal!!! Patrick Vieira, our captain who stepped up when the team needed it most. It was beautiful, definitely a great header."

It was Vieira who grabbed the first point between Campbell and Hypia. Vieira was very strong and fast. At the same time, Hypia only cared about defending Campbell and did not pay attention to Vieira.Vieira burst out suddenly, grabbed the first point, and smashed the ball hard towards the goal.

You must know that when Vieira was fighting for the first point, he went through a crazy run-up of five or six meters, so Vieira's header was very fast, no less than the speed of a striker's vigorous shot.

Although Dudek's reaction was quick, he could only look at the ball and sigh when faced with Vieira's powerful header and a very tricky header.

In the 27th minute of the second half, Arsenal finally scored a goal with Vieira's header.Although still one goal behind Liverpool at this time, Vieira's goal not only gave Arsenal hope of an equalizer, but also greatly boosted the morale of the Arsenal players
"Damn, there is not much time, go back and get ready for the game." Vieira, who scored the goal, did not look very excited. After all, Arsenal are still behind Liverpool, and time is running out, so there is nothing to be excited about.

Therefore, Vieira directly rejected the celebration of his teammates, snatched the ball from Dudek's hands with almost brutal movements, turned and ran towards the serving circle.

Seeing Vieira's behavior, the Arsenal players with greatly increased morale returned to their positions one after another, preparing to play faster.

"Damn, this barbarian, this bastard." Dudek, who was standing in front of the door, couldn't help but think to himself as he watched Vieira go away.

Originally, after Vieira scored, Dudek picked up the ball from the goal immediately, preparing to delay for a while.It's a pity that Vieira's rich experience in the game did not give Dudek a chance to play smart, and directly used terrifying power to snatch the ball from Dudek's hands in an almost brutal way.

Therefore, Dudek also hated Vieira at this time.If it weren't for the fact that he was not Vieira's opponent in a one-on-one match, I'm afraid Dudek really wanted to beat Vieira hard.

"Yes~ That's it, just keep playing like this, we still have time." Wenger also rushed to the sidelines and shouted loudly after pulling back a goal, while also constantly reminding the disciples on the field.

"Defend, defend me, back!" Seeing that the distance between the two sides has narrowed to one goal, the main reason is that Arsenal's morale has risen at this time, Lao Bei immediately came to the sidelines and shouted loudly.

When Arsenal's morale is up and the players start to go crazy, I am afraid that there is no team in the world that can withstand Arsenal's offense without defending.

Lao Bei knew very well that although Liverpool was still playing defensively and counterattack, Arsenal, whose morale had been greatly increased, could not withstand it like this.Therefore, Lao Bei loudly reminded the disciples on the field to strengthen the defense, shrink the defense, start to defend, and not give Arsenal any chance.

Anyway, leading Arsenal by one goal, George and others had no objection to Old Bei's request, and immediately began to return to Liverpool's half, looking like they were sticking to it.

Seeing that Liverpool began to defend with all their strength, with a 10-0-0 formation, the Arsenal fans immediately booed loudly, mocking and mocking Liverpool's cowardly behavior.

It's a pity that the boos of the Arsenal fans did not affect the Liverpool players. Even in the next ten minutes, the Arsenal fans continued to boo loudly, but Liverpool still went their own way and persisted in the iron barrel formation to the end.

In the 30th minute of the second half, Bergkamp shot suddenly in front of the penalty area, and the ball hit Hyypia's leg and bounced off the baseline.

Taking a corner kick, although Campbell grabbed a point, but under the interference of Hypia, it still missed the top, and the ball flew directly out of the baseline.

In the 34th minute of the second half, Henry dribbled the ball horizontally and opened the gap to hit the goal, and was hugged firmly by the concentrated Dudek.

In the 35th minute of the second half, Arsenal made a comeback. This time Ljungberg launched an attack. A small angle shot from the penalty area, the ball rubbed against the post and rolled out of the baseline.

In the 41st minute of the second half, it was Ljungberg again, but this time it was a header. The ball was turned sideways by Dudek again, and Yepes on the side got it, and directly drove the ball towards the midfield.

In the 43rd minute of the second half, Yepes put Henry in front of the penalty area and Arsenal won a free kick.The Dutchman Bergkamp, ​​who took the free kick, unfortunately missed the final shot.

In the 44th minute of the second half, Pires passed Riise and entered the penalty area. Just as he was about to hit the goal, Hyypia suddenly broke out, slid directly and broke the ball.

In the 47th minute of the second half, Henry shot again, and the ball hit the bottom line of his teammate Bergkamp's shot.At this moment, the referee also blew the whistle for the end of the game.

In the last ten minutes, Liverpool really suffered from the indiscriminate bombing of Arsenal, but in the end, Liverpool relied on shameless all-out defense, clinging to the one-goal lead, and at the same time successfully won the crucial six points.

There is no need to be shameless, as long as you can defeat your opponent and win the final victory, it is good, desirable and correct.
