Chapter 65 FIFA Ranking Climbs

"There is not much time left for Dortmund. After one minute, the game will enter injury time. This is an extremely cruel fact for Dortmund. They are still behind. If they cannot win in this game If they win the game, they will miss the next Champions League game!”

With the commentator's words, one minute passed quickly.

The fourth official raised his sign.

4 minutes of injury time.

This also means that there are only 4 minutes left before Dortmund goes home.

At this time, the Dortmund players have basically lost their fighting spirit.

After being suppressed for a long time, they could not pin their hopes on the chance to equalize two goals in the last four minutes.

In fact, it is very difficult for them to pass the ball into the opponent's penalty area.

Although they only conceded one goal in 90 minutes, it was this one goal that could knock Dortmund out of the Champions League.

The expression on coach Bosz's face was equally ugly. He coached Dortmund in July this season.

It has only been 4 months, but his performance in leading the team has been criticized and questioned.

In this game, Bosz's choice was even more puzzling to many Dortmund fans, and their complaints and doubts about him were even greater.

After this game, Bosz is likely to encounter talks from Dortmund's senior management, and may even be fired.

After all, for a head coach, performance is everything.

For Dortmund, they have had their glory days under Klopp, so they want to find such an excellent head coach to lead the Hornets.

But obviously Bose is not this guy!

Finally, the last four minutes were over.

The Dortmund players all breathed a sigh of relief for some unknown reason at the moment the whistle sounded.

This game was a torment for them. It was okay to be pressed and kicked, but they were targeted everywhere and could only block and defend. This made them feel that playing football was so uncomfortable for the first time. hapiness.

And based on this atmosphere, the performance became even worse.

"Arsenal successfully won this game. They defeated Dortmund 1:0, and at the same time, they also confirmed their qualification to qualify for the top spot in the Champions League group one round in advance!"

"And for Dortmund, they still have a final theoretical chance to qualify!"

"That is, in tomorrow's Champions League match, Paris Saint-Germain loses to APOEL at home, but this possibility is too slim!"

"We may have to say goodbye to Bumblebee early!"

"At the same time, we would also like to congratulate Arsenal for successfully advancing to the Champions League knockout rounds. In the five rounds of the group stage, Arsenal won five games. Their performance was amazing!"

"As for the last game, it depends on Mourinho's mood. Do you want to win and advance? Or let the main players rest and let the substitutes accumulate experience in the Champions League. For Arsenal, these are no longer important. They have already won The best result has been achieved!”

"Let us congratulate Arsenal! We also look forward to their future performance!"

The commentator finished speaking and the camera switched to the arena.

Arsenal players and Dortmund players comforted and encouraged each other.

Hummels even hugged and comforted every Dortmund player.

After all, as the former captain of Dortmund, he could not bear to watch Dortmund being eliminated in the Champions League group stage.

But this is a competitive game, and strength must speak for itself. If you lose the game, you can only blame yourself for not playing well.

Lucky was caught by the media on the sidelines.

"I'm very happy to enter the knockout rounds early. This news is very important to us. We can get more rest time and even be better prepared for the next league!"

"I am naturally satisfied with the performance of my teammates. They are all the best! We worked together to win this game."

"As for Dortmund, I can only say that it is a pity. I look forward to playing against them again in the future. I also believe that the Hornets will not be depressed because of this!"

After the interview, Lucky returned to the locker room.

Arsenal's players were already celebrating.

After all, they entered the knockout round early, and everyone seemed very happy.

For the main players, they can rest more in the future to adjust their condition.

As for the substitutes, there is another Champions League game next!

In the case of qualifying early, the head coach will probably let the substitutes play in that game, so that their chance will come.

Anyway, Arsenal advanced early, which is extremely exciting for everyone.

For the British media, Arsenal's performance also made them feel proud.

It seems that since 2013, Arsenal's performance in the Champions League has been very strong.

This time, in the death group, he was promoted ahead of schedule with a record of five wins, which was even more surprising.

Moreover, under the interference of the intense Premier League schedule, Arsenal performed so well in both competitions.

This has caused many people to say that they need to re-estimate Arsenal's strength.

Perhaps Arsenal is stronger than they thought.

Arsenal currently ranks fifth in the FIFA club rankings.

The top four are Real Madrid, Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich.

However, after this group stage, Arsenal soared to second place.

Since Real Madrid was the last Champions League champion, their strength ranks first.

But based on their current performance, Arsenal feels unstoppable.

Of course, for Arsenal, they also need to be wary of some problems.

That's an injury!

Now two important starting players, Lukaku and Kante, have fallen into injuries, and a more brutal schedule has yet to come, and the test will be after Christmas.

How to use players reasonably and avoid injuries is a key.

Arsenal's two injured players, Kante and Lukaku, also come to the club from time to time.

Despite being injured, they still came to the club to make their presence felt.

They are really afraid that the head coach will forget about them or be replaced by other players who perform well.

Especially for Lukaku.

The better Giroud performs, the more nervous he becomes.

Every goal Giroud scores in his absence is like a heartache for Lukaku.

In fact, Lukaku was also extremely confused at this time.

On the one hand, I hope Arsenal can win, and on the other hand, I hope Giroud does not score.

This way the team members can still remember how good he is!

However, judging from the current situation, it seems somewhat unlikely.

As for Kanter, he purely wants to participate in training.

Kanter always felt that he had recovered, but the team doctor never gave him a recovery notice, which made him uncomfortable staying at home.

His teammates are training hard for the game, while he is recuperating from his injury.

Times like this are extremely painful.

He wants to play and share the joy of victory with his teammates.

But injuries stopped him.

Sometimes, Kanter wants to spend some money to get a certificate to show that he is fine.

But I was afraid of the sequelae, so I could only wait.

After all, Lukaku’s lesson is right in front of him.

If the injury has not healed well, if you force the game, you will end up like Lukaku, with a bomb that may explode at any time in your body, which is not worth the gain.

Therefore, both of them need to rest in peace and recuperate, but neither of them can tolerate it.

"Is it time for you two to go home?"

Lucky looked at the two people standing helplessly at the door of the locker room.

Lukaku and Kanter just stared at them changing clothes, which made people feel weird.

"I don't want to go back yet, I feel at ease here!"

Lukaku shrugged.

Staying at home is torture, but at the training base, even if you don't participate in training, you are with your teammates, so you have a sense of participation.

Kanter, who had changed in another way, also nodded and said immediately: "I'll be fine in two weeks, the team doctor said!"

Hearing this, Lucky raised his eyebrows.

This is good news.

Kante's return will give Arsenal a big boost on the defensive end.

It can be said that in the game against Manchester City, if Kanter was on the court, they would not have to play so passively.
