My uncle is Inzaghi

Chapter 101 A game destined to be unstable!

April 11th.

London, Emirates Stadium.

There is still one hour left before the second leg of this season's Champions League quarter-finals.

The entire Emirates Stadium was packed.

Thanks to the media hype.

Tickets for this game are hard to come by.

Many local Arsenal fans have difficulty buying tickets. At this time, they can only gather outside the stadium and watch the game through TV screens.

At this time, Arsenal's bus was slowly approaching.

Arsenal fans on both sides of the road cheered for their team.

"come on!"

"Fuck Barcelona!!"

"The top four! The top four!!"

"Advancing to the semi-finals!!"

The fans chanted.

"Today's game was really exciting."

On the bus, Wilshere tutted.

"This game has attracted so much attention. I don't think many media paid attention to Manchester United's home game against Dortmund."

"The atmosphere of today's game was good."

Arsenal's players also looked relaxed, chatting on the bus.

soon.

As the bus stopped in the parking lot.

Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger was the first to get off the bus.

Click, click, click.

Flashbulbs rang out.

Reporters standing on either side of the carpet held up microphones.

A lot of questions were thrown out.

But Wenger just smiled and did not respond, and quickly walked into the stadium with his players.

When players from both sides went out to warm up, the excitement at the Emirates Stadium was far from what it usually is.

The fans chanted every Arsenal player's name.

Of course.

There are also Arsenal fans who do not forget to boo Fabregas, and there are posters humiliating Fabregas in the stands - he is the most unpopular person among Arsenal fans in Barcelona.

After the warm-up, the players from both sides returned to the locker room.

As the starting players put on their game jerseys, socks, sneakers, and shin pads, some players also put on muscle patches with the help of sports medicine experts.

Wait until everything is ready.

Wenger said: "Guys, everyone will never forget the tactical routine we practiced against Barcelona this week."

"Won't!"

Everyone shouted in unison.

Wenger nodded: "Remember, run! Running is key!! We need to give them a start in the opening stage! We can't let them slowly control the ball!"

Wenger stretched out his fist and hit the palm of his other hand hard.

"Get it! Get the rhythm of the game back!!"

"clear!!"

Hear this uniform roar.

Wenger breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course he knows.

It is very difficult to defeat Barcelona. Even if you don't take into account any messy refereeing issues, Arsenal does not have an advantage in terms of pure hard power.

And they also have to make some tactical adjustments.

As a weak side, only by proactively seeking changes in tactics can we create opportunities.

In this game, Arsenal must attack when they are behind in the total score and cannot passively defend and counterattack.

This requires Arsenal to take the initiative to press out.

It's risky.

but.

Manchester United lost 3-0 to Dortmund away from home, which gave Wenger some inspiration.

Manchester United is the opponent Arsenal needs to catch up with in the league this season.

They were actually swept by Dortmund 3-0, so Wenger naturally had to study this game carefully.

have to say.

Klopp's side have given Wenger some refreshing ideas.

Dortmund's almost crazy frontcourt press and counterattack after converting the ball gave Wenger some new ideas in this game.

It is more difficult for Arsenal to attack Barcelona's solid defense.

But if it is a transition attack, with Li Mo here, Arsenal's success rate will be very high!

However, the premise is that Arsenal can complete an effective press in the midfield and frontcourt - Wenger's plan is this. He wants his team to carry out a crazy press ten minutes before the game. If they can beat Barcelona in these ten minutes, If you are caught off guard, it is possible to score a goal.

Barcelona certainly didn't expect Arsenal to dare to take such a crazy risky attack.

If a goal is scored, the team will have the capital to recover and counterattack.

If there is no goal, these ten minutes can disrupt Barcelona's rhythm. Take it back and repair it for ten minutes, and then pounce on it!

Want to advance.

You can only take risks.

In the visiting team's locker room.

Vilanova is also doing final pre-war mobilization for Barcelona players.

"They always emphasize that they got two away goals, which only shows one thing." Vilanova stretched out a finger and said: "This shows that from the bottom of their hearts, they are afraid of us, they are afraid of us. Strength, that’s why they say: we have two away goals and so on.”

"However, one basic fact in this game is that we are the side with the total score, and we are the side with the advantage!"

"What are two away goals? We scored three goals and the score is now three to two!"

Vilanova emphasized.

"Therefore, we don't need to be anxious at all. We have to play this game at our own pace. We have to stay calm at all times and not be affected by the storm of media and public opinion. We control the ball and kill their fighting spirit. Waiting for a fatal blow!"

After Vilanova finished speaking, Barcelona captain Xavi stood up.

"Brothers, Tito is right. We have to stay calm. As long as we play at our own pace, winning will be a matter of course."

For these stars who came out of La Masia, they have almost faith-like trust in the tactical system they have adhered to since childhood.

On the TV screen, players from both sides have appeared in the player tunnel.

Arsenal and Barcelona are definitely not mortal enemies.

But because of what happened in the first round between the two sides.

The hostility between the two teams is now very high, no less than a contest between a pair of derby opponents.

Players from both teams stared straight ahead.

Although there are actually many acquaintances between the two teams.

But now everyone is in charge, and there is no exchange of pleasantries.

It can be seen from the performance of the players on both sides in the tunnel that neither side will show mercy in this game.

As the players on both sides stepped onto the turf of the Emirates Stadium, the cheers of the Emirates Stadium shook the stadium. The sound waves swept through the stadium, stirring everyone's chest, making people feel as if the whole world was shaking.

"Next is the 19th."

"Li Mo!!!"

The deafening cheers reached their climax.

“The atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium is really lively today!”

In the media gallery, a British reporter said in surprise.

Not far away.

The expressions of many reporters from Catalonia changed slightly.

But soon someone snorted: "It's just a dying struggle."

"Friends in the audience, the players from both sides have entered the court and the game is about to begin. Both sides are the main players!"

In the commentary box.

Andy Gray took a deep breath and shouted.

at the same time.

In the Dragon Kingdom, those fans who stayed up late waiting in front of the TV to watch this game were also in high spirits.

The voice of the commentator also came to my ears.

"Both sides have made substantial rotations in the weekend league, and the purpose is to be in the best condition for this game! There are no personnel changes in Arsenal's starting lineup and the first round of the match between the two sides, and the same is true for Barcelona. Now The two sides have already played against each other in one round, and now this round will determine who can advance to the semi-finals of this season’s Champions League!”

The voice of the commentator Zhang Jun fell.

Another commentator, Zhang Lu, sounded: "Arsenal is still lagging behind in the total score, so they must complete at least one goal. If this goal comes early, it will be very beneficial to Arsenal. .Hey Hey."

While the two were talking, the game had officially begun.

The first to kick off was Barcelona.

Just when people thought there would be a trial at the beginning of the game.

Arsenal struck in a big way.

Using Li Mo as the arrow, they quickly pounced on the Barcelona players point to point. Li Mo went to tackle the player holding the ball, and other players followed the opponent's players, or blocked possible passing routes.

Li Mo is very fast, he almost chases the football all the way forward.

Use high-position pressing tactics.

This point of his is crucial.

To this end, Li Mo spent a week studying the habits of Barcelona's midfielders and backfield players in receiving and delivering the ball.

Now the official game begins.

He also constantly deduce in his mind the reaction of the opponent's players after receiving the ball.

How they handle the ball, how they pass the ball

Li Mo's brain CPU was running at high speed.

The football was passed to Pique's feet.

Now I fishhook to run over and limit the passing line on his side. He only has two ways to pass to the right or back.

Although Pique is sometimes reckless, at the beginning of the game, he will most likely pass the ball back.

So he would pass to Valdez.

Li Mo was judging this in his mind.

Sure enough, Pique turned slightly and passed the ball back to Valdes.

Valdes will not touch the ball with his big foot! He is used to looking for both sides, or.

Middle!

Li Mo looked at both sides. Chamberlain and Cazorla were at the contact points on both sides of Barcelona.

Mascherano and Alves were on one side and pulled very fast.

Completely open up the space in the middle.

Their purpose is

Leave space for Valdez to pass in the middle!

Li Mo took a deep breath.

Making a move to pounce on Valdez, Valdez made a fake move to pass to the right, and then suddenly changed the target of the pass, choosing to push the pass with the arch of his foot and connect with Xavi.

But the moment the ball came out, Li Mo started.

He suddenly changed direction and then shoveled hard!

"Li Mo!!!"

to the narrator's exclamations.

Li Mo threw his body close to the ground and shoveled the ball in another direction.

Cazorla received the ball.

The moment Cazorla caught the ball.

Li Mo stood up and turned forward.

"Arsenal steals the ball in front!!!"

to the narrator's exclamations.

Barcelona's defense reacted quickly.

Pique, Mascherano, and Alves were unable to get close to Li Mo immediately. They chose to press forward and cause offside!

"Casuorla makes a straight pass!! Li Mo!! It's a one-man attack!!!!"

Amid the exclamations of the commentators, Li Mo did not hesitate. While catching up with the ball, he raised his foot and pushed the ball!

The football passed by Valdez and accurately penetrated into the goal from the lower right corner.

"Li Mo!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!"

"Dream talk! Arsenal got a dream start!! Huh? No, wait. Offside?! The linesman raised the flag, offside! Is this an offside?"

Li Mo noticed the position of Barcelona's defense when he got up.

What he noticed was Alves in the distance, and he was convinced that although Pique and Mascherano reacted quickly, the two of them set Li Mo behind their own offside trap - but they didn't notice. Alves.

Alves slowed down a beat.

so.

The moment Cazorla passed the ball, Li Mo was sure that he was not offside.

When he put the ball into the goal, he was ready to celebrate.

But when he saw the linesman raising the flag, he couldn't help but show doubts.

"Offside?!"

Li Mo spread his hands and walked towards the linesman.

"Didn't you see the far end? There are still people on the far end!!"

Li Mo pointed at Alves.

But the linesman ignored him.

Instead, he put away the flag and started running towards the center line.

The referee also waved his hand to signal Barcelona's backcourt to get the ball out quickly.

Li Mo could only shake his head helplessly.

The Arsenal players who were preparing to celebrate had to quickly return to their positions.

They didn't know if Li Mo was offside.

but.

They realize.

I'm afraid this game won't be peaceful.

Arteta pulled the angry Li Mo back.

"This is just the beginning, let's continue!"

"good!"

Li Mo gritted his teeth and returned to his position.
