Football: The Hand that Covers the Sky

Chapter 346: Champions League semi-finals

   In fact, it does not matter for Arsenal to score or not. What Arsenal really needs to do in this game is to contain Monaco's attack.

   Judging from the current performance, Arsenal have done very well in this regard. After more than 20 minutes of play, Monaco basically did not have any advantage, let alone threatened Arsenal's goal.

   On the contrary, Arsenal has created a few threats, among other things, Welbeck alone almost scared Monaco.

   With the passage of time, the mentality of both sides will change dramatically, and the change of mentality will directly affect the performance of the players on the court.

   In the thirty-fifth minute, Kondobia thought that an unnecessary foul applied for the first yellow card of the game. If it were normal, Kondobia would definitely not do such a stupid thing.

   This is the hidden danger caused by the unsuccessful attack. In contrast, the Arsenal players play more calmly and even better in the back.

   In the 37th minute, Arsenal scored again in the Monaco half. Wilshere and Welbeck hit the wall and passed to Griezmann who was inserted from the side. The latter adjusted his foot and shot almost to break the deadlock.

   Griezmann's shot by Subasić took a step slower. For the goalkeeper, the slow reaction was fatal, but the ball hit the goal post in the end.

   This was also Arsenal's best chance before the end of the first half. Although Arsenal had another shot afterwards, the shot did not hit the goal frame.

   As for Monaco, the offense was still working hard, but the result was not good, but when the referee Colum blew the whistle at the end of the first half, the score was still 0:0.

   Wenger was very satisfied with Arsenal's performance in the first half, but the game is not over yet, Arsenal still need to be careful, and Monaco is likely to be even more crazy in the second half.

   "Counter-attack, we must seize an opportunity to counter-attack in the second half." Although Wenger was very satisfied with the performance of his disciples in the first half, an away goal would be needed if he wanted to completely kill the game.

   In the first half, Monaco will definitely be more anxious when he can't score a goal in the first half. This will also be Arsenal's opportunity. This has been proven in the second half of the first half.

   In fact, Monaco was even more anxious in the second half. Arsenal's players had rushed forward before they had the ball over the half.

   Monaco has no retreat. If they don't want to be eliminated like this, they must make a final fight. This is an opportunity for Arsenal.

   Arsenal played very patiently. Facing Monaco's crazy pressing, Arsenal players made full use of the passing to consume the physical energy and patience of Monaco players.

   In the first four minutes of the second half, the ball has been at Arsenal's feet. Monaco, who has never been able to get the ball, finally relied on a foul to end Arsenal's possession.

   This foul by Monaco gave Arsenal an indirect free kick. Griezmann sent the ball into the penalty area. Mertesacker jumped up and dived and was saved by Subasić.

   Arsenal's corner kick, Wilshere sent the ball into the penalty area, Abdunur beat Koscielny to complete a few places, Monaco wanted to rely on this opportunity to counter Arsenal's counterattack.

   Arsenal's players are not stupid, they chose to foul Martial at the first time. This allowed Monreal to get Arsenal's first yellow card in this game.

   This is Arsenal's first yellow card, but it is also Arsenal's only yellow card in this game. Five minutes after Monreal got this yellow card, Arsenal completely crushed Monaco.

   Monaco's offense, a pass from Carrasco's wing breakthrough, the Belgian sent the ball to the penalty area, Martial threw off the defender and took a flying tackle.

   Martial was quite hard for this shot, but his desperation did not let him touch the ball, because someone completed the clearance first.

Monaco’s corner kick, I’m afraid no one would have thought that this corner kick became a reminder of Monaco. Moutinho sent the ball directly into the penalty area. After just a second, the ball flew out of the Arsenal penalty area and flew directly to Walcott. At the feet.

   "Counter-attack~~~" took possession of the ball and turned around. Walcott immediately rushed towards Monaco halftime.

   Fabinho, the Brazilian who was a full-back in this game immediately rushed to intercept Walcott, while Kulzava immediately retreated.

   Facing Fabinho, Walcott made a strong move, but in fact he just passed the ball to Welbeck with a false shot, but while passing the ball, Walcott also passed Fabinho.

  In terms of speed and explosive power, I am afraid that only Li Shou is faster than Walcott of the 22 people on the field, so when Walcott rushes, Fabinho can only follow behind and eat dirt.

On the other hand, when Welbeck received the pass, Kulzava could only shift his defensive focus to Welbeck, but after Kulzava shifted the center of gravity, Welbeck sent the ball back to Wow again. Elcott.

   "Single shot~~~" But when the ball returned to Walcott's feet, no one in Monaco could stop the tiger's advance.

   "Monaco must be very familiar with this scene, not only because of such a single-handedly in the first round, but also because Monaco used to have such a counterattack before." In the Louis II stand, Monaco fans are very complicated at this moment.

"GOOOOOOOOOOOL~~~ It's over~~~ It's over~~~ Subasić failed to create a miracle~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Arsenal broke the deadlock. Facing Subasić who attacked, Walcott calmly pushed forward. .

   "This is Walcott's two consecutive games relying on the counterattack opportunity created by Li Shou to complete the goal." In the FA Cup semi-final, Walcott used the counterattack to complete the goal.

   "1:0~~~ Arsenal scored an away goal." An away goal plus the original two goals, Monaco would have to break the goal guarded by Li Shou four times in the next game to advance.

is it possible?

   Although the world of football is full of miracles, it has never been impossible to say this, but facing Li Shou, it is really impossible.

   Because of Li Shou's entire career, he has conceded 4 goals, 3 of which were lost while playing for Monaco, and he has lost 1 since joining Arsenal this season.

   At this time, Arsenal’s opponent is Monaco. Many players have been teammates with Li Shou for two years. They know the difficulty of breaking Li's goal more clearly than ordinary opponents.

   Because I understand, I despair.

   This despair also directly affected the mentality of the Monaco players. In the 63rd minute, a foul by Kondobia made him apply for the second yellow card of the game.

   Two yellows changed to one red, and the game completely lost its meaning.
