Chapitre 59: Chapter 261 Scored from zero angle, helping Arsenal achieve ten years without a championship!
Wenger's guess was correct, Manchester City's counterattack came fast and hard!
In the 78th minute, Lin Quan cooperated with Nasri on the wing. After passing the defensive player in a one-two, Nasri dribbled the ball down.
Unfortunately, his pass before knocking the door was slightly closer to the goalkeeper, and the ball was destroyed in advance by the goalkeeper.
Two minutes later, Manchester City made a comeback. Lin Quan's long-range shot from the front of the penalty area was narrowly missed by the goalkeeper, and Manchester City got a corner kick opportunity.
Lin Quan personally took the corner kick.
He ran to the corner kick area, took a look at the positions of the players on both sides and the goalkeeper in the penalty area, and then made a back-point gesture to his teammates.
Seeing Lin Quan's gesture, Manchester City players rushed towards the back point.
Arsenal's players saw their opponent moving back and moved accordingly.
However, unexpectedly, this goal turned out to be a tactical corner kick.
After Lin Quan saw players from both sides swarming back, he immediately passed the ball to Javi Garcia on the right side of the penalty area.
The latter sent a through ball forward and handed it to Lin Quan who rushed from the corner kick area.
Lin Quan received the ball and rushed into the penalty area. Arsenal goalkeeper Fabianski immediately chose to attack, spreading his arms and lowering his center of gravity, trying to block Lin Quan's shooting angle.
Since most of the players in the penalty area ran towards the back point, the position near the right side of the penalty area was relatively empty. If he did not attack, Lin Quanneng could calmly adjust and then shoot.
Fabianski's choice was very decisive. If he had been slower, Lin Quan would have completed the shot.
Because he had just come from the corner kick area, Lin Quan's shooting angle was originally very small. After he blocked it like this, there was almost no angle.
Lin Quan did not force the goal himself, but calmly passed it to his teammates.
It's a pity that Xavi Garcia's reaction was half a beat too slow and he didn't move forward immediately. By the time he received the ball, Arsenal's defender had recovered and blocked his shooting angle.
Seeing Xavi Garcia's shot hitting the defensive player's leg and bouncing off the baseline, Lin Quan couldn't help but sigh.
If De Bruyne or David Silva were on the court, this ball would definitely have happened.
On the sidelines, Pellegrini was also aware of this problem.
He quickly called De Bruyne, who had finished warming up, whispered a few words in his ear, and quickly replaced him on the field.
Lin Quan returned to the corner area with the ball in his arms. Seeing that Manchester City was about to make a substitution, he did not rush to take a free throw. After De Bruyne came on the court, he made tactical gestures to his teammates again.
The Manchester City players saw that they were still playing at the back point, so they ran towards the back point again.
Arsenal had already been fooled once, so it was impossible for them to be fooled a second time.
So, except for Mertesacker who stared at Lescott, the only high point in the Manchester City team, everyone else stood still.
However, just when they thought Manchester City was lying to them again, Lin Quan really drove the ball to the back point.
Lescott took the lead and beat Mertesacker to take off.
Although he is seven centimeters shorter than Mertesacker, he took the opportunity and hit the ball before Mertesacker!
There was a loud bang and the football flew toward the goal.
Fabianski jumped up in a hurry, but it was too late and he could only watch the football fly into his own goal!
Manchester City quickly equalized the score in the 83rd minute!
After scoring the goal, Lescott ran to the sidelines excitedly, raised his arms vigorously, and asked for applause and cheers from the Manchester City fans who came to watch the game.
Every Manchester City fan is so excited!
Arsenal's goal in the 76th minute made them smell the danger of death, and they couldn't help but worry about whether the team could advance to the final.
Unexpectedly, the team equalized the score so quickly!
"Well, it looks like you can solve the battle without me coming on!"
De Bruyne had just come on, and before he had time to touch the ball, the team equalized the score, which made him feel relaxed all of a sudden.
I originally planned to come up and be the savior, but it seems that I am just being sentimental!
"Isn't this just the equalizer? To win the game, we need to score another goal!"
Lin Quan glanced at Arsenal's goal and was obviously not very satisfied with the 1:1 score.
"Haha, have you come up with any ideas again?"
De Bruyne knows Lin Quan very well. When he heard the other party's words, he knew that he probably had an idea.
"Well, I plan to do this..."
After hearing Lin Quan's plan, De Bruyne wondered: "Is it really feasible?"
"You'll know after you try it. Of course, you have to cover for me!"
"Okay, I'll just cooperate with you!"
De Bruyne was not sure whether Lin Quan's method would work, but he still chose to believe in Lin Quan.
Manchester City's players knew that time was precious, and they did not want to be dragged into overtime or even a penalty shootout by Arsenal.
Therefore, they quickly ended their celebration and returned to the court to continue to strengthen their attack and see if they could eliminate Arsenal before the final whistle sounded.
Manchester City's goal was a huge blow to Arsenal's morale, and every player began to doubt themselves.
Obviously we have already deployed five defenders, why are we still unable to prevent the opponent's attack?
We worked hard for most of the game and finally scored a goal.
The opponent evened the score with a casual corner kick. How could this be fun?
On the coaching bench, Wenger was also slumped.
Could it be that being without a title is my fate as Arsene Wenger?
No, there is still a chance!
If it drags on and goes into overtime, the opponent's physical problems will be further exposed.
Arsenal will still have a chance then!
Thinking of this, Wenger immediately issued an order to the players on the field, asking them to continue to implement defensive tactics and keep the 1:1 score until the end of the game!
I have to say that this tactic is a bit conservative.
At this time, if Arsenal goes all out and fights Manchester City, it is really not certain who will win.
After all, Manchester City's midfield lacks physical fitness. If their opponents rush out to compete with them for control of the midfield, they may not be able to withstand it.
However, Arsenal failed at the critical moment!
They took the initiative to retreat and gave up control of the midfield, allowing Manchester City to calmly control the initiative of the game and launch attacks from the midfield again and again.
Seeing that Arsenal continued to defend, Pellegrini couldn't help but shook his head.
To be honest, he didn't really approve of Wenger's substitution adjustments.
If they had not changed the defender just now and replaced them with a sweeping midfielder, Manchester City would have really been carried away.
But after taking a look at Arsenal's bench, he understood Wenger a little bit more.
It may not be that Wenger didn't expect it, but there is really no one available.
Ozil, Eisfeld, and Karlstrom, these three midfielders cannot do the dirty work. Replacing them on the field may only have the opposite effect.
With De Bruyne playing, Manchester City's offense has become more threatening.
De Bruyne's creative passing was simply impossible for Arsenal to guard against.
The most important thing is that Lin Quan can form a tacit understanding with De Bruyne every time. The two of them can always think of going together. Wherever the person runs, the ball will go!
Arsenal's defensive players are always one step slower and are always at a disadvantage when defending.
In order to stop Manchester City's attack, they had to use foul tactics.
In the 84th minute, Monreal pulled Lin Quan and received a yellow card.
Two minutes later, Arteta kicked down De Bruyne and also received a yellow card.
In the 89th minute, Sagna also received a yellow card in defense.
The game time passed little by little, and the Arsenal people defended Manchester City's attacks one after another in an extremely tragic way.
Due to their tenacious persistence, the last second of regular time finally ran out, and the game entered injury time.
The referee gave 3 minutes of injury time. As long as Arsenal can last through the last three minutes, the game will enter overtime.
By then, maybe the coach can make magical substitution adjustments and lead the team to victory!
The players held on to this belief and persisted tenaciously.
However, Manchester City are not prepared to give them the chance to delay further.
In the 91st minute, De Bruyne sent a precise through ball that penetrated Arsenal's defense. After Lin Quan ran in the opposite direction to get rid of the defensive player, he received De Bruyne's pass on the right side of the penalty area.
De Bruyne passed the ball very well, and Lin Quan's shot was also of high quality.
However, with the help of God, Fabianski made a divine save, narrowly saving Lin Quan's extremely high-quality shot.
After Fabianski completed the save, he stood up excitedly and roared at Lin Quan.
However, Lin Quan was not angry, but gave him a thumbs up.
The opponent did hit the ball well, and Lin Quan was convinced.
However, this kind of god-level save should be just a flash of inspiration from Fabianski, and it is difficult to replicate again!
Give me ten chances, and I'm sure I can make ten of these shots. Can you make ten of these god-level saves?
Fabianski didn't expect that the opponent had such a good temper. He was stunned for a moment, and then gave Lin Quan a thumbs up and praised him for playing well.
His demonstration did not anger the other party, but was praised by the other party. This made him feel a little self-blame, feeling like a villain and getting carried away.
Arsenal's players couldn't care less. They all rushed up one by one, hugged Fabianski and thanked him for his wonderful save.
If Fabianski hadn't contributed to this goal, Arsenal would have definitely been defeated!
"Cheer up, everyone, there is only more than one minute left in the game, grit your teeth and persevere!"
Captain Arteta gasped, clapped his hands vigorously, and loudly encouraged his teammates.
Lin Quan once again came to the corner kick area with the football in his arms!
The Arsenal players couldn't help but feel a little nervous when they saw Lin Quan walking to the corner.
This is the third corner kick he has taken in this game. The first two corner kicks have posed a threat. I wonder what tactics he will use this time?
As before, Lin Quan glanced at the positions of the players on both sides in front of the goal, then at Fabianski's position, then took a few steps back and made the same gesture as the first and second times. .
Again?
Arsenal's players have recognized this gesture, after all, the opponent did not change it three times in a row!
However, even if they recognized this gesture, they couldn't believe it!
Who knows if this guy really has a penalty point?
They noticed that Manchester City's attacking midfielder De Bruyne was standing where Harvey Garcia passed the ball.
If he still plays a tactical corner kick like the first time, wouldn't it be deceived if the Arsenal players rushed to the back?
Thinking of this, Arsenal's players separated a group of people to stare at Manchester City defender Lescott, not giving him the chance to continue to header the goal.
Others stepped forward to interfere and mark De Bruyne, denying him a chance to pass the ball.
Arsenal's players have basically guarded against Lin Quan's possible options. In this way, the opponent will no longer be able to play any tricks, right?
However, it turns out that they are still too naive!
Lin Quan made a gesture, and the Manchester City players still rushed back. Although even they were not sure whether Lin Quan would drop the ball to the back point, but what if?
The actions of the Manchester City players still interfered with Arsenal's defensive players. The opponents were all rushing back. If they didn't follow, the backcourt would be empty!
As a result, their formation subconsciously moved back a bit.
However, Lin Quan neither passed to the back point nor went to De Bruyne.
His choice is to attack directly!
This choice exceeded the expectations of almost everyone on the court, except De Bruyne!
The corner kick area and the goal line are on the same line. In the corner kick area, the players cannot even see the goal.
To score the ball at such a zero angle, you must make an exaggerated arc.
It is extremely difficult to do this!
Therefore, it is not that no one has tried to shoot directly from a corner kick, but only a few can accomplish this feat!
This is why the Arsenal players were so surprised by Lin Quan's choice. They really didn't expect that the other party would make such a choice!
Arsenal goalkeeper Fabianski saw the football drawing a wonderful arc in the air and flying towards the goal, and his expression suddenly changed.
He was standing a bit close to the near corner, but the opponent was hitting the far corner.
Fabianski hurriedly moved towards the left side of the goal, but he moved at this time and it was too late!
With a crisp sound, the football flew into the net.
Fabianski is a full 2 meters away from where the football enters the net, out of reach!
Wembley Stadium fell into a brief silence. A moment later, the side of the stands where Manchester City fans were sitting burst into warm cheers!
They actually defeated Arsenal at the last moment and reversed course and eliminated their opponent!
The Arsenal fans were full of disappointment:
Reversed again!
Did he fall before the championship trophy again?
Could it be that Arsenal is really cursed and cannot win the championship?
By missing out on the chance to win the FA Cup, Arsenal has truly achieved a decade without a championship.
After winning the championship in 2003-04, there was no more championship for ten years!
The achievement of ten years without a championship was achieved by Arsenal today.
However, not a single Gunners fan is happy about this record.
Instead, they felt nothing but deep sadness.
