Chapter 119
On May 17, 2006, the Stade de France in Paris, France, the European Stadium ushered in the final match.
Barca and Arsenal have almost all the way in the Champions League, with the injured Barca eliminating Chelsea, Benfica and Milan, and Arsenal overturning favourites Real Madrid and Juve.
After a brief pre-match performance, players from both sides entered the majestic "Champions League" theme song.
The referee blew the whistle, the game began, and Li Ming sat next to Messi, obviously feeling that he was even more nervous than when he was playing on the field. Messi has been out of the game for almost two months because of a torn muscle in his right leg, and now he sometimes stands up and looks, sometimes sitting and rubbing his hands.
Torres looked at the game with a solemn and yearning expression, after all, he has not yet stepped into the Champions League.
Li Ming saw that Rijkaard could still do the work, and actually let Xiao Luo appear in the center position, and Eto'o and Gyuli played wingers. The existing combat power is fully improved, and Iniesta and Beletti, who are slightly injured, are sitting on the bench on standby.
Goalkeepers: Valdés defenders
: Van Bronckhorst, Puyol, Marcos, Oleg
midfielders: Deco, Edmilson, Van Bommel
forwards: Eto'o, Ronaldo, Gyuli
Arsenal's side lineup is aligned, and the 4-1-4-1 formation that is the best is
outstanding: Lyman
defenders: Ashley Cole, Campbell, Toure, Ebue
Back: Gilberto
Forwards: Pire, Hleib, Cesc Fabregas, Ljungberg
centre-forward: Henry
coach Arsene Wenger folded his hands and paced nervously on the sidelines.
In the first half 2 minutes, Arsenal took the lead in attacking, Ashley Cole on the left flank like no man's land, Oleg was originally the material to play central defender, today was started and pressed on the fullback, just hope that he will not wave, do not insert forward, do not lose position. However, Oleg shook his height of nearly one meter and nine meters, and actually rushed up to fight Akol.
He was directly scored by the first left-back in England and left behind. Van Bommel had a fierce glare in his eyes and rushed up to release Akol, but the latter was a big foot that shifted laterally and gave it to Ebue on the other side.
Eboue took the ball a few steps, directly flanked the ball, swept into the box, Henry flashed flexibly, leaned on Marcos to unload the ball, turned and volleyed, Valdés blocked sideways, shocking Messi next to Li Ming.
After that, the two sides entangled for more than ten minutes, Barca without Xavi was not as silky as before, and could only rely on Deco to guide the ball, Van Bommel and Edmilson turned into violent men, facing several technical forwards at Arsenal with various upper bodies, Fabregas, who had just turned 19, was kicked and screamed, but the referee turned a blind eye: "Young man, can't you stand this intensity?" Barca
were not to be outdone, Ronaldo Jr. did not relax in the middle of the game, frequently instigated attacks, Deco and Van Bommel successively tested a Lehmann with long-range blasts.
But said that under the entanglement, it had to be Xiao Luo who stood up. In 18 minutes, the Brazilian genie moved left and right, swung past the interception of Gilberto and Xiaofa, and kicked straight away, Eto'o quickly started to throw off Toure to form a single knife!
Lehmann was recently announced by Klinsmann to be the starting goalkeeper of the German national team, and he is also enthusiastic at the moment, running out of the ground tackle, wanting to destroy Eto'o's single knife outside the box.
Although Lehmann was imposing, his skills at his feet could not be compared with that of defenders, and the ball was not tackled, but he saved Eto'o outside the box! The football also slowly rolled to the right side, Jiuli cut forward at high speed, and directly and easily pushed the empty door into the net!
Li Ming only felt a stir around him, and the five major patients of Barça all stood up and cheered. However, he heard the referee's whistle on the field, crossed his hands, and signaled that the goal was invalid, but Lehmann's red card could not escape.
For a moment, there was chaos on the field, and everyone at Arsenal surrounded the referee to intercede.
Harvey shouted from the stands: "Hey, even if the ball goes in, the red card is fine!" "
Both sides have their own plans, and Arsenal have seen that the main goalkeeper will be sent off with a red card for less than 20 minutes in the first half, and it is also a long time to see; Barca thought that it was better to exchange the goal for Lehmann's red card.
Lehmann crossed his hands at the waist, overwhelmed, but the referee's red card was firmly in place. Wenger stomped his foot in a hurry, but the field could not be left without a goalkeeper and immediately replaced Pire with substitute goalkeeper Almunia.
Pire looked surprised, as if to say, "Are you sure you want to replace me?"
Wenger nodded and signaled him to hurry up and get off the field, and Pire walked off the field angrily, kicking when he met a water bottle and kicking a board when he saw it. Li Ming's guidance, Pire's fate with Arsenal, is over.
After Lehmann got off the field, he covered his face with a towel, he was in pain, he couldn't forgive himself for making such a stupid mistake, he was 36 years old, how could he bury the whole situation because of his momentary mistake?
For the next ten minutes, Barça went on the offensive, relying on their numerical superiority to frequently threaten the Gunners' gates. The gunners' formation was fully contracted, posing in a 4-4-1 formation, leaving the front for Henry the Great, who was omnipotent in recent years.
But said that Henry alone, with his own system, took the ball on the left side in 35 minutes, swung past Edmilson, Deco, and then increased his speed, and only Eto'o could keep up with the speed of the emperor on the field.
Henry from the left, burst into the middle, seeing Puyol's momentum, Marcos was also waiting for the opportunity behind, so he burst from the middle to the right, a person stirred up the Barça midfield chicken dog, Van Bronckhorst couldn't stand it, a tackle finally knocked Henry to the ground. Arsenal won a free kick on the right flank, and now Henry has a free kick and corner kick, like the king of the gunners.
Li Ming couldn't understand it, so he turned to Torres and asked: "Brother Tore, why haven't I seen you take a free kick at Atletico?"
Torres had a black line on his face: "With Petrov and Maxi here, I just need to grab some no!" But at Arsenal, free kicks are better than Henry's, and there should be none. "The implication is also to admit that his set-piece footwork is average.
On Arsenal's side, only Campbell, Toure and Cesc Fabregas were in the box, and everyone else shrunk in the half-time defense. Henry kicked an inward rotation arc and hung straight on the Barca goal, but saw Campbell and Toure two strong men jumping at the same time, Barca central defender Puyol and Marcos are less than one meter eight, and were instantly pressed under the two central defenders of the Gunners.
Li Ming could only hear Messi and Harvey next to him shout: "Ouch! Not good! "
I saw Campbell jumping high to grab the landing point, a big head hammer, Valdés couldn't save, and watched the ball smash into the bottom of the net!
38 minutes into the first half, 1-0! Arsenal take the lead with one less man!
Gabri and Silvinho slapped their thighs fiercely: "If we are on the field, how can we let them sneak attack successfully!" Li
Ming rolled his eyes and thought to himself, when we played Atletico Barcelona this season, both of your brothers were on the bench. But because the ticket to watch the game today was bought by Harvey, I am embarrassed to say more.
