Football: The Hand that Covers the Sky - Chapter 381
The second half of the game soon restarted. Arsenal continued to implement their own tactics. Although Arsenal’s coach is still Wenger, the current Arsenal is no longer the former Arsenal.
Arsenal, who had the kick-off right in the second half, still didn’t worry about attacking, and after slowing into the Barcelona half, they quickly passed the ball back.
Faced with such Arsenal, Barcelona can only rush up to fight, and after Barcelona rushed up, Arsenal decisively passed the ball to Barcelona half.
1:0 lead is not safe. The main task of Arsenal in the second half is to create another free kick for Li Shou except for defense.
So when Barcelona rushed to fight, Arsenal often turned to find Sanchez, but Barcelona was not so easily fooled.
Barcelona would rather allow Arsenal attacking players to shoot than give Arsenal a free kick, because Arsenal players are far less threatening than free kicks.
In the forty-eighth minute, Arsenal completed the first shot of the second half. Giroud’s powerful shot from the penalty zone line, Sanchez broke along the wing, Giroud retreated, Sanchez crossed, Giroud received The ball turned around and the shot was saved by Ter Stegen.
Arsenal took a corner kick, Cazorla sent the ball into the penalty area, Pique resisted the position and jumped to complete the clearance, Barcelona got a defensive counterattack opportunity.
The ball after the clearance fell to Iniesta’s feet, the latter immediately sent a long pass, Suarez entered the Arsenal hinterland like this, but the Arsenal defensive players were not slow to react, Monreal entangled Suarez, no Give him the opportunity to easily control the ball.
In this case, although Suarez could not complete a quick counterattack on his own, he still had his teammates. Messi was not far from Suarez, so Barcelona made a diagonal pass to the ball to Messi’s feet.
Bellerin immediately stopped in front of Messi, but Bellerin knew he could not stop Messi. He never thought of stopping Messi. He just wanted to force Messi to slow down and create time for his teammates to retreat.
Messi is not stupid to play against, if Bellerin rushes to break the ball under his feet, Messi has absolute confidence to break through the opponent and rush into the penalty area to face the goalkeeper.
Messi can only slow down when Bellerin always keeps his distance, but once he slows down, the chance of a quick counterattack is lost, so Messi chooses to pass.
On the other side of the court, Neymar is struggling forward, and there is no defensive player on Neymar’s side. If the ball is really passed to Neymar’s feet, then the Brazilian can really get a single-handed face to Li Shou.
Messi wanted to personally break Li Shou’s goal, but in Barcelona’s current situation, the most important thing is to equalize the score first and weigh the pros and cons. Messi finally passed the ball.
The timing of Messi’s pass can be said to be very well grasped. Neymar was about to pass the ball before the final Bellerin, so he did not raise the flag.
The linesman didn’t raise the flag and it doesn’t mean that Neymar can really get a single shot, because the figure in front of Arsenal has already rushed out the moment Messi kicked and passed the ball.
No, it should be said that Messi has gradually left the goal before Li Shou has started. It is just that Li Shou moved very carefully and the distance he moved was not long before Messi did not notice.
But these small steps have successfully helped Li Shou grabbing Messi’s foot before Neymar. The goalkeeper who rushed into the penalty area can’t use his hands, but his head and feet can be used, and Li Shou is this time. Push the ball out with his head.
“Really a crazy rescue” Li Shou’s rescue is actually very threatening. If there is a slight gap, Barcelona will face an empty goal.
But in the end, Li Shou was successful. Although Barcelona still had the ball after the clearance, Li Shou successfully resolved the possibility of Barcelona’s single-handed attack.
Barcelona threw the clearance ball, the ball came to Messi’s feet again, in the Arsenal half of the ribs, Messi again sent a cross, but this time Messi did not dare to pass into the Arsenal penalty area.
Outside the penalty area, Iniesta, the latter did not shoot a long shot after receiving the pass, or a low pass sent the ball into the penalty area and sent it to Suarez’s feet.
Suarez, who received the pass, finished the shot despite having a defensive player around him, and he still made a very threatening shot. He pushed the ball with his right foot and went straight to the dead corner again.
But what disappointed Suarez and Barcelona is that the result of this shot was no different. Li Shou once again blocked the ball and resolved Suarez’s shot.
Seeing this situation, Suareston’s teeth tickled against Li Shou-hate. In this game, he has already shot two shots that feel very good, and he may have scored twice in normal times.
“Fuck~~~ This guy won’t bite me, right?” Seeing Suarez’s teeth grinding, Li Shou asked with some worry.
In view of Suarez’s previous record, Li Shou’s worries are not unreasonable, and with Li Shou’s character and reaction, if he is bitten, he will definitely fight back, but I’m afraid Arsenal will change goalkeeper.
Well, what Li Shou worried about did not happen. This is the Champions League final. Even if Suarez really wants to bite Li Shou, he must consider the outcome and impact.
Barcelona took a corner again ~www.mtlnovel.com~ tactical corner kick, Neymar received a pass and sent a low pass into the penalty area, but Koscielny made a clearance.
Arsenal ushered in a wave of counterattacks, the ball came to Ramsey’s feet, the latter found Cazorla, Cazorla found Griezmann, the French picked compatriot Giroud, Giroud headed the ball Pass to Sanchez.
When Arsenal completed these passes, Sanchez had already appeared at the front of Barcelona’s penalty area. This wave of counterattack against Arsenal was not unpleasant.
But in the final shot, Sanchez was a bit disappointing and still an old problem. Although Sanchez received the pass into the penalty area, his shot was once again hit in the close corner and Ter Stegen was saved.
Although Ter Stegen made this save without me, the ball bounced back into the penalty area, but unfortunately no one at Arsenal could keep up with the replacement shot. The ball was finally cleared by Barcelona.
In the 61st minute, Suarez shot a very threatening third shot of the game. Although there is a member of China called the three, it is not used in front of Li Shou.
It was Messi’s pass. The Argentine sent a half-air ball after attracting defensive players. Suarez stopped his chest at the top of the arc and volleyed without waiting for the ball to land. The ball drew a beautiful arc and ran towards Arsenal again. Dead corner of the goal.
“Li~~~Perfect save~~~A textbook save” When the ball was about to cross the goal line, it was the familiar big hand once again blocking the ball.
I saw Li Shou leap into the air, his body stretched out and his arm extended.
