Chapter 152: Offensive Battle with Gunners (Part 2)

Before the start of the second half, the England commentator listed the data again.

"As a German team, Schalke 04's most glorious period was before World War II. After European football really entered the European era, Schalke 04 did not have much competitiveness in Germany."

"So before the restructuring of the European Championships and a large increase in the quota for the European Championships, there were not many opportunities for Schalke 04 to participate in the European Championships. They really participated in a large number of European Championships, basically after the restructuring of the European Championships."

"This also led to the fact that Schalke 04 did not play many matches with English teams."

"So far, Schalke 04 has only played against English teams 5 times in the European war. It can be said that they have lost more than they have won, especially on the soil of England. Schalke 04 has never won a game. victory."

"The last time Schalke 04 met an English team was in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals in the 2010/11 season. Schalke 04 met Manchester United. At that time, Manchester United defeated Schalke with a big score of 6:1 in two rounds. 04."

"So in this game, if Arsenal lose at home, it would be an absolute disgrace to the English team."

The England commentator's statement is a bit exaggerated, but Schalke 04 has never won a victory on English soil.

Now this game is a good opportunity for Schalke 04 to break the record.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Schalke 04, who was in the lead, made a substitution adjustment first, replacing Hogel with Jermaine Jones.

Hogel did not perform very well in the first half. It is better to replace Jermaine Jones with stronger defensive ability.

Although defensive players were replaced to strengthen the defense, it does not mean that Schalke 04 played conservatively.

On the contrary, in the second half, Schalke 04 was the first to play.

In the 47th minute, Fox made a cross from the left, and Lee Chenglong overwhelmed Coquelin in the penalty area to complete the header, but this time Mannoni reacted very quickly and slapped the header from close range.

In the 52nd minute, Li Chenglong made a pass from the right, but Holt was a step slower than the follow-up, and the ball slipped past the goal.

In the 54th minute, Fox made another cross from the left, Huntelaar headed back, and Li Chenglong followed up with a volley, but the ball was not suppressed and flew into the stands against the crossbar.

"In the second half, Schalke completely controlled the situation. Arsenal were pushed back to their own half. Except for the kick-off, they had almost no chance to play halftime." The German commentator was gloating.

Arsenal was completely passive, Wenger was sitting in the stands again, and Arsenal's assistant coach Bould, who was temporarily acting as the commander, kept scratching his bald head anxiously.

In this case, Arsenal veteran Arteta stood up.

In the 61st minute, Li Chenglong dribbled the ball in the middle again and tried to make a strong breakthrough. Arteta came up directly and shoveled him to the ground.

The Danish referee Eriksson came over to give Arteta a yellow card, but he ignored it at all and went back and yelled at his teammates in order to inspire the fighting spirit of the whole team.

This is somewhat effective. In the next 5 minutes, Ramsey and Gervinho both received yellow cards to stop Schalke 04's offensive.

But in the 69th minute, Jackie Lee gave them another heavy hammer.

Arsenal had just gained momentum and began to counterattack. This was the first time they hit Schalke's penalty area in the second half, but Gervinho was too sticky to the ball, and Hewedes grabbed the ball and scored immediately. To Atsuto Uchida on the right, launch a counterattack.

Atsuto Uchida quickly dribbled the ball to the midfield, cooperated with Huntelaar to hit the wall, and smoothly went to the frontcourt to make a pass.

Li Chenglong followed up in the middle. Although Vermaelen was behind him, he accelerated forward, and suddenly slowed down and stopped when he reached the small penalty area line.

Uchida Atsuto's cross was very good this time, and the ball flew directly to Li Chenglong's header.

So Li Chenglong turned his head in the air, shook his head and attacked the goal directly, and the ball was pushed into the upper right corner of Arsenal's goal.

"Goooooooooooal~~~~~~~"

"Bruce Lee~~~~Beautiful header~~~Very beautiful!!!"

"This is Lee's second goal, he scored twice at the Emirates Stadium!!"

"With a quick counterattack, Schalke extended the score to 2:0, and they have a great chance to win the game away!"

After scoring twice, Li Chenglong still didn't celebrate, but other Schalke players couldn't help celebrating at the Emirates Stadium.

Already leading Arsenal 2-0 in the away game, there is a good chance to win this game next, which is of course worth celebrating.

This second goal by Jackie Lee can be said to have completely defeated Arsenal's fighting spirit, and the eyes of the Arsenal players were full of confusion.

Seeing that the situation continued to deteriorate, Boulder finally started to make substitutions.

The first is that Giroud came on the field and replaced Gervinho.

This didn't have much effect, and soon he replaced Arshavin and Gnabry, but it still didn't have any effect, Schalke 04 continued to control the situation on the field.

In the 86th minute, Schalke 04's new Barnetta made a free kick in the frontcourt in a good position.

Li Chenglong came to take the penalty, but the ball failed to go around the wall and was headed out by Mertesacker after the jump.

But Neustedt on the outside got the ball and passed the ball back into the penalty area with another kick.

At this time, Arsenal's morale was already slackened, and no one followed Huntelaar, allowing him to easily run back and step forward to shoot, so Arsenal's goal was broken again.

"The game is over. Arsenal not only lost to Schalke 04 at home, but also lost 0:3." When the game entered stoppage time, the England commentator was drawing such a conclusion.

Soon, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

"We congratulate Schalke 04. They beat Arsenal 3-0 away. This is a result that no one expected before the game."

"Bruce Lee scored twice, Huntelaar scored one and they completely crushed Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium."

"Whether it is from the perspective of the game process or the post-match data comparison, Schalke 04 is the overall dominant side, and they deserve to win this victory."

At the end of the game, commentators from various countries began to congratulate Schalke 04.

The Schalke 04 team did beat Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. They basically suppressed Arsenal throughout the game. The opponent's only two small starts were directly broken up by Lee Chenglong's goals.

Especially in the comparison of shooting data after the game, Arsenal at home had only three shots, all from the first half, while Schalke 04, the visiting team, had 12 shots, far more than the opponent.

On the edge of the court after the game, a large number of English reporters surrounded Li Chenglong.

"Bruce, is it because you played against Arsenal in this game that you exploded?"

"Of course not, I just want to try my best to help the team win the game."

"Don't you want to prove yourself against Arsenal?"

"Of course not, this is just a simple game."

"So will you move to Arsenal in the future?"

"No one knows what will happen in the future. I just want to play well in Schalke 04."

"Don't you celebrate your goals against Arsenal in the future?"

"It's not a certainty, but I think, at least I won't be celebrating at the Emirates Stadium."

...

After the interview, Li Chenglong found that there were still many fans waiting for his signature.

These are basically Arsenal fans, and they all asked Jackie Lee to sign their names on their Arsenal jerseys.

While Li Chenglong was signing, they were doing lobbying work.

"Bruce, come to Arsenal to play!"

"Yes, Arsenal need your help."

"You're born to be a shooter, you should be here."

"The Emirates Stadium is your stage, Bruce."

"Now that you are playing in the Bundesliga, there will be no barriers to moving to Arsenal."

"Yes, Bruce, you can come to Arsenal during the winter break."

...

Although they spoke very sincerely, Jackie Lee just quietly signed their names and did not respond.
