There is a dream called football

Chapter 345
"Arsenal this year, Liverpool last year."

"The Champions League is Arsenal's only lifeline right now."

"Arsenal, OUT."

"Arsenal, go to hell."

All the cursing comes from Arsenal's arch-rivals in north London - Tottenham Hotspur.

Because in the last round of the Premier League, it was Tottenham Hotspur who competed with Arsenal for the fourth place in the league, so this is not only a matter of rivals in the same city, but also a matter of tangible benefits next season.

At the end of the 37th round, Arsenal scored 64 points and Tottenham scored 65 points. The top three, Liverpool with 79 points, Manchester United with 80 points, and Chelsea with 91 points, all of them have already been scheduled.

It has to be said that the Champions League this season is too much for Arsenal, and Wenger's game is also focused on the Champions League. After all, the league title has already been won, but the Champions League title has not yet been won, so there is nothing to say. Almost the entire club agrees with Wenger's strategy.

But at this time, the league is the most important thing, because it is too important to get fourth, which is related to the Champions League next season.

In the last round, Arsenal's opponent was Wigan Athletic, while Tottenham's opponent was West Ham United. In terms of strength, Arsenal's opponent was a little weaker, but it was just a comparison. There is another saying that the Premier League has no weak teams.

Before the game, Arsenal and Tottenham fans not only cursed at each other, but also cheered on each other's opponents.

Arsenal is encouraging West Ham United to beat Tottenham, and Tottenham not only hopes that Wigan Athletic can beat Arsenal, it is best to abolish a few Arsenal players, so that Arsenal's Champions League will be stretched.

Very poisonous, right?

But that's English football, that's the derby, that's about the game, that's faith, and faith can't be touched.

The last round of the game is kicked off uniformly, and all games will be kicked off at 5:7 pm on May 03th, in order to ensure the absolute fairness of the game.

To play Wigan Athletic at home, Arsenal sent all the main players, because for Wenger, three points are basic, and then it depends on the situation of Tottenham.

The game went smoothly, because Wigan Athletic is currently ranked 10th, and it belongs to the kind of team that can't go up or down. This season's early relegation this season is a big prize for a team like Wigan Athletic. The owner of the club is very happy and even admits that it will increase investment next season.

Facing Wigan Athletic, who had no desires and desires, in the 7th minute of the first half, Pires pushed and scored the goal after receiving a cross from the wing from Xiaofa.

Arsenal lead 1-0.

But then Arsenal underestimated Wigan Athletic. This team will not be promoted, but their players may not.

Sure enough, Wigan Athletic overtook the score in the first half, scoring two goals in 10 minutes and 30 minutes.

This moment made Highbury silent. Could it be that Tottenham didn't say anything, but my side rushed first?

However, before the end of the first half, Henry scored a goal to equalize the score. At halftime, the fans of both sides were paying attention to the situation of the other game. It was 2-2 for Arsenal and 1-1 for Tottenham.
It's like God was joking. The two sides were still stalemate in the last round, but Arsenal fans still feel a little comforted, because as long as they score another goal, then Tottenham's tie will be OUT, and Arsenal can sprinkle salt on the wounds of their arch-enemy.

At the beginning of the second half, it was Henry again. He played a two-for-one with Li Qiao in the penalty area. In the end, he single-handedly scored the ball.

At this point, Wigan Athletic seems to really have no fighting spirit. It is estimated that many people are thinking about vacations, because most of Wigan Athletic players are not international players, and the World Cup has nothing to do with them, so just go on vacation honestly.

But Arsenal can't do it, there are still the Champions League and the World Cup, so the players must be in good condition.

In the 76th minute, Arsenal completed the lore. This time it was Fabregas' goal. So far, Arsenal's own affairs have been resolved.

Everyone, including Wenger's attention, is on another game, that is the game between Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United.

And that game is still 1-1, which means that as long as Tottenham score a goal in the last 10 minutes, Arsenal's efforts throughout the season will be in vain.

The stadium was full of uneasiness. It was like waiting for the boots to hit the ground. It was very torturous. What's more terrible was that the Tottenham game could not be seen, but the big screen would broadcast it.

"Manchester United, Wayne Rooney scored one more."

"Chelsea scored."

"Liverpool scored."

Goals were scored in other games, but these are not what Arsenal fans care about. The only thing they care about is Tottenham.

Tottenham Hotspur.

At the 85th minute of the game, there was a ding on the scene, and another goal came. Everyone saw that it was a match between Tottenham and West Ham United.

It was Benayoun who scored.

Who is Benayoun?
Tottenham?

At this point some fans have gone crazy, because they know the Israeli Benayoun is a West Ham player.

"what………………"

Highbury didn't score, but the fans were a hundred times more crazy than when Henry scored, because this result will send Arsenal into next season's Champions League qualifiers.

Wenger didn't celebrate, but he was so happy in his heart, but the reason why he didn't celebrate was because he was afraid of being slapped in the face, because if Tottenham scored 2 goals in a row in the end, then Arsenal would be slapped in the face.

This game is very exciting, Highbury is still suffering, until the final moment, then the result is impossible.

In the last 10 minutes, Wenger replaced Li Qiao, Henry, and Xiaofa. Everyone stood on the sidelines and stared at the big screen. At 88 minutes into the game, Tottenham scored a goal, and England international Defoe scored a goal.

The score became 2 to 2.
"My God, I'm about to have a heart attack." Xiaofa laughed.

Because there may still be a few minutes over there. It is estimated that Tottenham are already playing crazy, and it is not difficult to score another goal at the last moment, and if this happens, then...

Henry sat back on the bench. As the leader of the team, he didn't want to infect his teammates with his nervousness.

The game here is over, Arsenal won Wigan Athletic, now it's time to wait for the game there.

Wenger asked his assistant, "Is it over there?"

"Not yet, 5 minutes of stoppage time."

"Damn."

In the end, the news came from West Ham United's home court, Tottenham tied, and Arsenal counterattacked in the last round.
