Football: Shine in the AFC Champions League, sign Arsenal on the spot

Arsenal have met Barca in the knockout stages of the Champions League for the third year in a row, and the outside world is also generally bearish.

Even the always optimistic Huaxia fans are full of sadness.

There are too many things to see in this Champions League quarter-final match between Arsenal and Barcelona.

Among them, Arsenal fans are most concerned about 'French loyalty' Cesc Fabregas facing the old owner.

What makes Arsenal fans angry is that

Cesc Fabregas stayed at Arsenal for eight years and even became captain, but then paid a release fee for the so-called 'homesickness' and transferred to Barcelona.

This made Arsenal fans angry and accused him, and Huaxia Gunners fans gave him the title of 'Law Zhongyi'.

This time goodbye is already an opponent, and the outside world is very concerned about what Fabregas will do.

In this noisy atmosphere, Arsenal arrived in Catalonia, Spain.

Arsenal rented the Real Spaniard's training base to maintain training.

Interestingly, it is similar to the previous Arsenal loan at Inter's training base.

The Westerner's current boss Pochettino came to the training ground to exchange tactics with Arsene Wenger, yes, the future boss of Tottenham and Paris.

Let's talk about communication tactics, actually....

Fast forward and the first leg of Arsenal's Champions League quarter-last match with Barcelona approached.

At the pre-match press conference, Barca's current head coach Pep Guardiola was in attendance alongside Messi.

A British reporter asked.

"Two, what do you think of Arsenal's striker Chen Fan today, what is your evaluation?"

The two people on the stage also thought for a moment when they heard this question, and Guardiola took the lead in answering.

'Chen is a very good player and he has been making a name for himself in Europe recently, and I admire him.

Then 'Boss Mei' Messi said with a smile.

"I know Chan, I think he has world-class potential and I'm looking forward to playing him on the pitch."

......

"Audience friends, this Champions League quarter-final match between Arsenal and Barcelona will be explained by me Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu."

The 'Hey Ha Group' reappeared in the studio, smiling and greeting everyone.

"Chinese player Chen Fan is still the starting player in this game, and now he is indispensable in the Arsenal squad."

Zhan Jun looked at Chen Fan walking out of the player tunnel on the screen and said.

At this time, Chen Fan was waiting to appear in the player tunnel, and the Barca player next to him was Messi!

Messi is Chen Fan's previous life, and he was a player that Chen Fan liked very much in his previous life.

Now that Chen Fan saw the real person, he could say that the deer was bumping into him, and secretly glanced at Messi.

Coincidentally, Messi just turned his gaze and looked at Chen Fan.

Messi was also stunned, and immediately smiled at Chen Fan and stretched out his right hand.

At this time, Chen Fan forced down the tension in his heart, and also showed a smile to shake hands with Messi.

The interaction between Messi and Chen Fan ends here, after all, the two teams are about to play, and there should not be too much contact before the game.

Call!

Chen Fan lowered his head and breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, calming his emotions.

When he looked up again, his eyes were full of fighting spirit.

Soon the players from both sides walked out of the player tunnel together.

As soon as he walked out of the exit, Chen Fan's first feeling was noisy, unprecedentedly noisy.

Barcelona's Camp Nou can hold around 100,000 people, and it's quite amazing how many people are speaking together.

The pressure on Arsenal's players is huge.

Soon players from both sides were standing on the pitch.

Beep!

The referee blew the whistle to start the match, and the first leg of the quarter-finals began!

Chen Fan, as Arsenal's strongest attacking point, naturally received special attention from Barca.

Beside him was the iron-blooded defender Puyol, whose curly hair brought great pressure to Chen Fan.

As the game continued, Chen Fan also found that Guardiola really valued him.

As soon as he gets close to the football, not only Puyol, but also Pique and Alves will change some of their movements to assist the defense.

Of course, Chen Fan did not have many opportunities to get close to football, because as the game progressed, the situation on the field was gradually taken over by Barca.

At the beginning of the game, the Arsenal players also tried to use pressing to put pressure on Barca.

But it turns out that such a high-intensity pressing, before they can pose a threat, their physical strength will be exhausted by Barca's pass-controlled football.

Arsenal's midfield trio were still unable to compete with Barca's Habaib and were completely suppressed, forcing them to recoup the front.

In such circumstances, Barca played steadily, waiting for the perfect opportunity to give Arsenal a fatal blow.

Sure enough.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, 'White' Andresta picked up the ball near the centre circle and found a fleeting crotch on the right wing.

Without hesitation, Xiaobai directly kicked a precise straight plug.

Wilshere, who saw Xiao Bai straight stuffed, reacted quickly and hurried to the front to make a tackle.

Unfortunately, the ball rolled too fast, rolling before Wilshere could get his feet.

Then he turned his head and looked, and a figure wearing a red and blue shirt appeared in the empty crotch.

The number behind it is number 10.

"Macy!"

Carlos, the Spanish commentator of the match, shouted.

I saw Messi after receiving the football on the field, and the pace of his feet began to accelerate.

After seeing Messi take the ball, the Arsenal defenders immediately tensed their nerves, and they were all engrossed.

Vermaelen, who is experienced in defense, is the first to step forward and approach Messi, hoping to destroy the football quickly.

Unfortunately, Messi simply used a simple pick to turn around and pass him.

It's not that Vermaelen didn't expect it, but Messi did the action too fast, so he didn't react.

Seeing Vermaelen's other three Arsenal defenders who were easily passed by Messi, Li Ke, Koscielny and Gibbs each had solemn expressions.

The three looked at each other, understanding that they all had the same thoughts, and at the same time moved their steps to clamp them up.

Seeing this situation, Messi is still unhurried to dribble the ball.

When approaching the first defensive player, Li Ke, he suddenly accelerated his pace.

The right foot buckles the football to the left, and the left foot pushes slightly, and the football passes under Li Ke's crotch in an instant.

"This is ... Croquettes!

Zhan Jun exclaimed in the studio.

Li Ke, who wanted to stop Messi for a moment and waited for the other two teammates to arrive, was shocked, and it was too late to turn around and chase back.

At this time, only Szczesny stood in front of the Arsenal goal, who stared nervously at the football at Messi's feet.

Messi did not hesitate and shot straight up and shot directly.

Nearly 100,000 fans at Camp Nou were all staring at Messi's soccer ball.

When they saw the football flying in from the top left corner of the goal, all the Barça fans present cheered.

It's like heaven-shaking.
