Chapter 331 recreates the classic scene: Confident Marco creates a legend with his hat!
Before the end of the first half, Martin completed a single-machine breakthrough goal through his super personal ability. The whole process was full of entertainment, and his extreme speed also immersed countless Arsenal fans and neutral fans.

Only Manchester United fans are miserable.

Head coach Mourinho pursed his lips and stood in the home team coach's technical area to vent his dissatisfaction.

From a defensive perspective, Damian and Herrera's defense has big flaws.

It seemed that Martin was double-teamed, but Martin's use of space was actually ignored.

To know the breakthrough in this situation, many wide players will.

As an Italian defensive player, Damian should not be defending this time.

With Luke Shaw not yet back from injury, Damian's position in Mourinho's mind is -1 again.

Martin, who scored the goal, did not celebrate wildly. He just cheered up the expedition team who were celebrating wildly, and then hugged Cavani, Sanchez and Ramsey who ran up to celebrate the goal.

Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger was very excited. Although he knew that Martin would be stable, he still couldn't suppress the ecstasy when the equalizer goal came and he celebrated crazily with his two assistants.

The players on the bench raised their arms and shouted, expressing their joy at the equalizer.

Standing at the entrance of the goal tunnel, Xhaka looked up to the sky and screamed.

Without Martin, he will most likely become the team's sinner.

The on-site director immediately restored the wonderful process, and the replay of Martin's breakthrough along the wing once again made countless fans in front of the TV go crazy with adrenaline.

It's full of fun to watch, and every frame is thrilling and exciting.

The Arsenal players who equalized the score did not celebrate the goal too much and quickly returned to the half-time, waiting for the game to start.

Manchester United, which had a kick-off advantage, was unhappy and naturally wanted to exceed the score again before the end of the first half.

However, Wenger made some adjustments to his previous tactics, allowing Martin to move back and form a back three with Kante and Ramsey, in order to prevent Manchester United, which has the right to kick-off, from creating absolute scoring opportunities.

At the end of the 1-minute injury time, referee Marina blew his whistle to signal the end of the first half.

Players from both sides walked towards the tunnel at the corner of the court, and the on-site director showed a close-up shot.

The faces of the Arsenal players who appeared on the broadcast screen were as usual, and they did not feel the heaviness of missing one player at all.

On the other hand, the Manchester United players all frowned.

Obviously, he was under great pressure from Martin.

I thought that playing one more person would bring certain advantages, but now it seems...not so.

Although there were still 45 minutes left in the second half and it was a home game, Martin's superb personal ability had already made Manchester United players feel a little desperate.

Home team locker room.

The noise from the stadium stopped abruptly as Faria closed the locker room door.

Mourinho did not speak, and the players, including boss Zlatan Ibrahimovic, wiped their sweat silently with heavy faces.

After about half a minute, Mourinho said solemnly: "Having one more player is our advantage, but it is also our disadvantage. The goal has been conceded. There is no way to change the outcome if we regret it. Only by accepting reality can we defeat Arsenal at home." Na, he played one more player in the 45 minutes of the second half. I hope everyone will learn from this, especially the defense against Martin, and you must not relax..."

Meanwhile, the visiting locker room.

Wenger first praised Martin's performance, and then encouraged the players and fully recognized everyone's efforts.

Due to limited halftime, Wenger still had some tactical adjustments to instill in his players, so he got right to the point.

The 15-minute intermission passed quickly, and the home team Manchester United took the lead in making substitution adjustments.

Ashley Young replaces Damian.

Mourinho's adjustment was not to target Damian's defensive disadvantage against Martin, but to play one more player in the second half. Ashley Young has stronger offensive attributes and good speed, and can completely switch from defense to offense. Under certain circumstances, it helps the team increase the speed of returning to defense.

After playing one more player for 45 minutes, Mourinho wanted to try to defeat Arsenal at home, get three points and end Arsenal's unbeaten season.

……

Arsenal's strategy in the second half was mainly defensive, first ensuring not to concede a goal, and secondly seeking opportunities to overtake the score.

Manchester United's overall strength is actually not strong, but with the support of Mourinho's targeted tactics, the team has been well integrated into a strong whole.

Even if he is as strong as Martin, there is no good way to face multiple double-teams.

Mourinho also knows that he has long-range shots and free kicks to score goals. If he does not give the core position an opportunity to easily get the ball, he will lose the long-range shot opportunity.

The strategy adopted in the 30-meter defensive zone is to surround but not grab. If there is no foul, the opportunity to take a free kick will be lost.

At the 10th and 1th minute of the game, the scoreboard still showed a score of 1:[-].

Taking advantage of the dead ball opportunity, both sides made substitution adjustments at the same time.

Manchester United replaced Carrick with Wayne Rooney.

Arsenal's adjustments were aimed at defense, with Coquelin replacing Ramsey.

The intention of this substitution is obvious, to use pure midfielder Coquelin to serve as Kanter and liberate Martin.

Can Mourinho see what Wenger is thinking?
He raised the corners of his mouth and whispered: "If Martin focuses more on offense, as long as he doesn't score, then... the victory will belong to Manchester United!"

However, Wenger is still more cautious in using Martin. He will definitely not be too presumptuous when visiting Old Trafford, and there is one less player to play. Unless the opportunity is particularly good, more than three people will not be allowed to participate in the attack.

To gain possession of the ball, Martin's extraordinary ability to organize and attack is relied on to connect the whole team and knead the whole team into a whole.

In the 70th minute of the game, Arsenal made another substitution adjustment.

Gnabry replaced Sanchez, who was in poor condition, to increase the counterattack threat from defense to offense.

Sanchez is in a relatively sluggish state and his role is only reflected in defense.

Gnabry, who has not yet been called up by the German national team, is full of energy and in very good condition, and can play a big role on both offense and defense.

It is precisely with the addition of the new force Gnabry that Manchester United's offense has not been spared. The two full-backs Ashley Young and Valencia cannot participate in assists at the same time.

You must know that Arsenal plays with one less player and plays at home. This kind of offensive method is easily criticized.

But Mourinho doesn't have a good solution. Facing the strong enemy Arsenal led by Martin, being too involved in the offense may lead to goals, but his instinct is that he may concede the goal first.

Once the score falls behind, based on his understanding of Wenger, Martin will definitely be involved in the defense. Even if there is one more player, it will be difficult to equalize the score against Arsenal who are fully defensive.

"Wait for the opportunity~"

Time passed by second by second, and soon it came to the 85th minute of the game. The scoreboard showed that the score was still 1:1.

The fanatical atmosphere at Old Trafford was as subdued as ever, with only die-hard fans shouting wildly and cheering for the home team players on the field.

It's just that this situation is a bit unsatisfactory for Old Trafford, which has the second largest capacity in the UK, and its effect on boosting morale is minimal.

Arsenal fans who traveled with the team were very excited, and their outburst of momentum could even overwhelm Manchester United fans.

Against this background, Arsenal, with one less player to play, gradually moved forward under Martin's organization.

Martin, who once again received Kanter's forward pass, suddenly changed his rhythm, changing from a continuous kick to a forward breakthrough.

Facing Rooney's close defense, he used his heavy shoulder to the left to easily break through. Pogba knew how powerful Martin was, so he did not dare to step forward.

Ibrahimovic was still at Manchester United, and Pogba was still very vigorous in executing Mourinho's tactics, but Martin didn't give him time to think. He directly used the outside instep of his right foot to move the ball to the right front, widened the angle, and adjusted his steps. , pretending to shoot angrily.

Herrera, who serves as the barrier in front of the central defender, has an early prediction, takes two steps to the left, and then uses his flesh and blood to block the long shot outside the penalty area depending on whether Martin takes a long shot.

At the same time, Pogba also moved his long legs and approached Martin.

However, Martin, who opened the angle, did not take a long shot. Instead, he used the space exposed between Pogba and Herrera to pass the ball to Gnabry.

Valencia, who was responsible for marking, pounced over, and right center back Bailly also stepped forward, obviously to restrict Gnabry from easily getting the ball in the front area of ​​the left penalty area.

Unexpectedly, Gnabry passed the ball directly to Cavani, who had Smalling on his back, and then drove straight forward into the space behind Valencia and Bailly.

Cavani, who came to the top of the penalty area to provide support, leaned back, resisted Smalling who was pushing forward, and used the outside instep of his right foot to direct the ball towards the left rib of the penalty area.

Bailly's heart thumped as he pushed out too hard. With no other choice, he had no choice but to stretch out his foot and trip Gnabry.

"beep~"

Referee Marriner decisively blew his whistle to signal Bailly for a foul and gave him a yellow card.

Mourinho knew how dangerous this position was. He put aside the fact and ran to the sidelines to do violent body movements. He also cursed and said that Gnabry learned to dive at a young age.

Wenger was very unhappy when he heard this and immediately mocked Mourinho: "You are only 50 years old and your eyes are dim. You are worse than me. Go back and take a shower!"

"Don't worry about your old-eyed coach who is about to retire. A flop is a flop. Want to steal three points at Old Trafford? There is no way!"

Mourinho yelled tit for tat.

"fart!"

Seeing that two people whose combined age was over 120 years old were about to fight, the fourth official quickly ran over to act as peacemaker, and the assistant coaches of the two teams also followed suit.

The substitute players on both sides were also a bit uncooperative, quarreling at each other from a few meters away.

Now...it's getting lively.

The fans in the audience booed harshly for fear of chaos.

However, the players on the field and many players on the bench remained calm and quickly returned to normal after the intervention of the referee team.

Next, it’s time to settle accounts after the fall.

Mourinho and Wenger, who took the lead in the quarrel, each scored fifty goals and received a yellow card warning.

Depay and Chamberlain, who were both in high spirits, also received yellow cards.

The close-up shot of the live broadcast once again showed the stadium.

To be precise, it was given to the Arsenal captain.

He placed the football at the spot where the foul was committed, looked at the goal through the wall with sharp eyes, then took three big steps back, adjusted his position slightly, and waited for the referee Marina's whistle.

De Gea kept directing the wall, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right.

It is not difficult to see that he feels the pressure.

Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Pogba, Martial and Valencia, who served as the wall, obviously also felt the pressure from Martin.In order to prevent Martin from playing in three directions, Herrera lay down behind the wall.

That sharp look was full of confidence, which made the Manchester United players feel nervous.

Mourinho, who was standing in the technical area where the home team coach commanded, also raised his eyebrows slightly, and his uneasiness gradually spread throughout his body.

"beep~"

At this moment, referee Marina blew his whistle.

Martin, who has attracted worldwide attention, took a deep breath and then started to run.

De Gea, who was on the far side of the goal, swallowed subconsciously, held his breath while concentrating, and couldn't help but glance towards the near corner of the goal.

He has specially studied Martin's free kick style, which is a powerful and heavy falling ball, and mainly focuses on the near-end absolute blind spot.

The left foot that takes the last step is about 25 centimeters to the left of the football. The center of gravity is tilted to the left, about 70° to the ground. The right foot that swings backward uses the knee as the pivot, focusing the power of the thigh and calf on the instep of the right foot. The position for tying shoelaces.

Boom~
A crisp muffled sound emerged spontaneously.

The football shot up from the ground and passed over the head of Rooney, the shortest man on the far right of the wall at high speed.

De Gea, who took a step to the right, was ready to pounce towards the near corner. What he never expected was that his cleverness would be mistaken. The football kicked by Martin did not fly towards the near corner, but... the far corner!
That is the area he could originally cover!
De Gea, who moved his center of gravity in advance, is still one of the top three goalkeepers in world football, and his reactions are quick.

The right foot supporting his body pushed hard on the ground. The huge reaction force caused him to complete the rotation of his center of gravity in the electric light. His left foot followed the trend and he jumped to the left. He quickly raised his left hand.

However, Martin kicked the football towards the upper right corner of the goal with great force and speed. Before De Gea fully opened his outstretched left hand, the football flew past with a whistling sound, grazing the inner edge of the upper post of the right goal. Xiangxue white ball net...

※※※※※

"Goooooooooooooal—"

"2:1! Martin scored another goal! Helping Arsenal overtake Manchester United in the away game!"

"Oh My God! Incredible super goal!"

"Unparalleled performance! Martin! Become the master of Old Trafford in this moment!"

……

After scoring the goal, Martin opened his arms like a god descending from the earth, stayed in place, and allowed his teammates to shout crazily beside him.

Wenger, who was standing in the visiting team's coach's technical area, danced excitedly to express his gratitude for Martin's almost-clinching goal.

Not far away, Mourinho roared angrily into the void, not to vent his dissatisfaction with De Gea. There is really no way to do something like Martin's free kick that goes straight to the dead corner.

He was very depressed about Martin's goal at this juncture.

When the live director gave a wonderful replay, Mourinho played his last card.

Fellaini replaced Martial who was in poor condition.

Of course, this adjustment is for offense.

Fellaini, who has a height advantage, is very capable of heading the ball. Of course, his appearance is to form a double ghost attack with Ibrahimovic in front of the goal for the rest of the game.

Coupled with Pogba, Manchester United can instantly have three big men over 1.9 meters in the penalty area.

If there is an opportunity to attack from a set piece, and Bailly and Smalling press forward to participate in the attack at the same time, it will bring a very large aerial advantage.

Wenger saw Mourinho calling Fellaini to the bench and was waiting for something to do, so when Mertesacker was seriously injured and absent, he sent Giroud, who was also over 1.9 meters tall.

The game time came to the 87th minute, and Wenger made his last adjustment on defense.

After a brief thought on who to substitute, he decided to replace forward Cavani, who played two games during the international break.

It was originally planned to replace Gnabry, who came on as a substitute in the second half, but on second thought, the German teenager who was almost abandoned had a speed advantage and might be able to complete a fatal blow in the counterattack from defense to offense.

"Both Mourinho and Wenger played their last card!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei said solemnly: "There are 3 minutes left in regular time, and the injury time seems to be at most 7 minutes. The next few minutes will become particularly important."

When the game restarted, Manchester United played very directly, using Rooney's scheduling and Mata's offensive organization to wait until three high points entered the penalty area and started to pass.

Ibrahimovic, Fellaini and Pogba looked majestic when they fired three arrows together. In fact, it was a bit difficult to completely top the ball under the pressure of Van Dijk, Giroud, Martin and Koscielny.

In the blink of an eye, the game reached the 10th minute, and the fourth official held up the electronic sign indicating 4 minutes of injury time.

Manchester United once again scored an offensive record. Rooney, who got the ball on the right side of the center, made a direct pass.

Martin, with the assistance of Van Dijk, defeated Pogba and Fellaini to push the ball out of the penalty area.

Kanter was near the landing point, but his height was a flaw. He could only watch helplessly as Herrera tipped the ball to Rooney, who in turn passed it to Mata.

Mata was a thief when he received the pass. He saw that Martin had not yet positioned himself in the middle of the penalty area, and the cross was directed to the front point.

"Zlatan Ibrahimovic!"

As Sky TV commentator Andy Gray shouted, Ibrahimovic moved forward to the front of the small penalty area on the right side and turned his head to look at the moon.

The top ball was very powerful, and Cech blocked the ball while flying sideways. Koscielny, who returned to the goal, had no time to think and kicked the ball out of the baseline.

Manchester United gets a corner kick!

As a result, the Arsenal penalty area became lively.

Fellaini, Pogba, Ibrahimovic, and Smalling are four big men over 1.9 meters tall, as well as Bailly who is 1.8 meters tall, Valencia who is 1.8 meters tall, and Rooney who is 1.7 meters tall.

When the time came to stoppage time, De Gea was also eager to try, waiting for the coach's permission.

Mourinho thought for a moment but shook his head and rejected De Gea's request.

There are still more than two minutes of injury time, and it is not a last resort. Once a corner kick attack fails to score and Arsenal seizes the opportunity to kill the game, it will be over.

Unless it is the last attack, De Gea will not be allowed to participate in a header challenge.

Mata took an offensive corner kick from the right, and the ball was pushed out of the right sideline of the penalty area by Van Dyke who was in front of him.

After taking the corner kick, Mata got the football and made another pass before Bellerin could get closer.

The football bypasses the front point and the middle and flies to the back point.

Giroud pushed the ball over the baseline as he retreated, and Manchester United got another corner kick.

"aoaoaoooooo—"

The atmosphere at Old Trafford became frenetic.

When the broadcast screen switched, James Sports commentator Zhan Jun shouted: "Oh? De Gea also ran to the Arsenal penalty area to participate in the corner kick attack! This is a desperate move!"

In order to prevent Arsenal's defensive counterattack, Ashley Young and Valencia's very fast players stayed outside the penalty area.

A large number of players from both sides were crowded into the small penalty area. In order to compete for favorable positions, there was naturally intense physical contact and the movements began to become larger.

Referee Marriner blew his whistle continuously to warn those who made larger moves.

With the verbal warning, the players on both sides restrained their actions slightly.

Marina nodded silently, intending to turn a blind eye.

As long as there is no excessive physical contact, he does not intend to blow the whistle.

"beep~"

When the whistle sounded, Mata raised his left hand and made a gesture with clear tactical intention.

Unexpectedly, Mata, who seemed to be affected by decreased body stamina, took a corner kick that was not high, and the ball was pushed out by Koscielny who was guarding the forward point.

But he did not respond well under Bailly's pressure, and the football flew to Rooney on the left side of the penalty area.

The Manchester United captain was obviously eager to achieve success. Instead of directing the ball towards the dangerous area, he stopped the ball with his chest and hit it with his non-dominant left foot.

It was a pause that gave Monreal, who had his hands behind his back, a chance to step forward and block the ball. The football hit Monreal's chest and bounced outside the penalty area.

Fans watching the live broadcast of the game saw a golden figure following the ball out of the penalty area. The voice of Sky TV commentator Andy Gray in the commentary box suddenly rose an octave: "Martin——"

Ashley Young, who was behind to handle the ball, suddenly shrank his pupils. Out of a subconscious defensive reaction, he took a step forward and then suddenly retreated.

It is precisely because of this that he lost the opportunity to compete with Martin for the ball.

"Ruined."

Mourinho closed his eyes in pain.

The Manchester United players who still wanted to return to the defense to save the situation stopped one after another and looked at the young man wearing Arsenal's No. 10 jersey.

Martin, who was getting faster, also made a fake move of lowering his shoulder to the left, knocking Ashley Young to the ground who was about to commit a foul.

"One Mapping River!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei shouted passionately.

Everyone thought that Martin would safely pass the ball across half court and then kick the ball into an empty goal. Instead, he adjusted his steps and kicked directly from the right rib of Arsenal's half defense, more than 20 meters away from the midline... and hit the goal. .

"This……"

Leshi sports commentator Zhan Jun exclaimed: "Martin directly lobbed the empty goal!"

After completing the shooting, Martin no longer looked at the goal. He turned around confidently and raised his arms high.

This scene... has also become a classic scene.

"wowoowoooooo—"

Huge exclamations echoed over Old Trafford.

The football shot up from the ground with a top-down parabola passing over the center line. Under the attention of the whole world, it flew to the top of the penalty area and then began to fall. Then it hit the snow-white net with precision...

Arsenal captain Martin also scored his third goal of the game!
hat trick!

The Manchester United fans at home became silent at this moment.

Arsenal fans seized the opportunity and roared hysterically, expressing their overwhelming joy at the goal.
