There is a dream called football

Chapter 441 Sometimes luck is important

Replacing Anderson and Assuncao, Porto should be desperate, and Ferreira did think so in his heart. There seemed to be no reason to be conservative anymore. It was already 75 minutes into the second half.

The plot is similar to the first half, Arsenal is doing Tai Chi, and Porto is hit hard like cotton, every time it is hit hard, but it seems that it can't hurt Arsenal, so Porto can only take risks

Already.

When Anderson was replaced, Porto's offense immediately became more delicate. Some people distributed the ball, some organized, and some shot from long range. Anderson was like the conductor of the symphony. Without him, the room would be full of noise, but with him,

Then you can play the most beautiful symphony.

Of course, the hidden danger is also huge, that is, the midfield is weak. If Arsenal's fast break passes through the midfield and lacks a strong defensive midfielder to intercept, then Arsenal may be able to launch a fatal counterattack.

It's just that Porto can no longer care so much at this time.

Anderson's long shot in front of the penalty area is a curved shot to hook the dead corner of the goal. This kind of ball is a strong test for footwork. If the ball flies in the right direction, it is likely to score a goal.

, and the goalkeeper has nothing to do about this kind of blind corner kick.

And Anderson's kick was indeed very close to the goal. The ball was just a little high. This made Lehmann very angry. "What is the role of the midfielder? Let the opponent shoot in that area!"

This can be said to be the responsibility of the midfielder, and of course it can also be said to be the responsibility of the central defender. After all, top players have the ability to shoot about 25 meters in front of the penalty area, and Anderson's shot just now almost scored a goal.

After Lehmann's roar, Arsenal players obviously strengthened their protection in front of the penalty area, especially the front of the penalty area, where the opponent is absolutely not allowed to shoot. Even if they want to shoot, they will be subject to strong interference.

In fact, what the Arsenal players don't know is that this is exactly what Anderson expected. His long shot is to attract the opponent's dense defense in the penalty area, and in this case, he can use his passing talent.

.

This is also ability. If you don't have the ability to shoot from a long distance, you will definitely not be able to do this. This is like Messi later. Although he is very strong in the penalty area, he actually succeeds in long-range shots in front of the arc of the penalty area.

This makes it extremely difficult for the opponent's defenders to defend and cannot relax for even a second.

Anderson once again got the ball in front of the penalty area. He feinted a few times, as if he was trying to get out of the way to shoot. But just when three Arsenal people were attracted to pounce on him, Anderson suddenly flicked his ankle and passed the ball.

Toward the other side.

And here Postiga is basically in an undefended situation. This time, Arsenal's defense has a huge gap, and no one can fill it, so that Arsenal players can only raise their hands to signal their opponents.

Offside.

However, the ball was not offside. Postiga raised his foot and shot into the far corner of the goal. But at the critical moment, Lehmann made a block. This was considered a subconscious block. Lehmann slightly changed the direction of the ball.

The ball went out of the baseline.

And Postiga was kneeling on the ground. He missed the chance to win. A huge sigh erupted from the Dragon Stadium. The fans in the audience wished that they were the ones who just went up and shot. This goal seemed really not difficult, but it was

Didn't hit it.

The head coach couldn't help but shake his head. He felt very disappointed that such a goal was not scored. Otherwise, Porto would have taken the initiative.

And Wenger's heart was pounding. It was like the feeling of surviving a disaster. In fact, when Postiga shot, Wenger was already prepared to lose the ball. Fortunately, he didn't score. Wenger also

Breathed a sigh of relief.

But the subsequent corner kick is also likely to be threatening. It seems that they are unwilling to admit defeat. This time Porto invested a lot of people in the corner kick, including Pepe. It seemed that they were preparing to swallow up Arsenal in one breath to make up for the missed goal.

Regret to advance.

Anderson went to the corner to kick the ball and hit a curve ball. Gonzalez made a ferry and the ball reached the middle. When Pepe was about to head the ball, Toure was also fighting for the top, and the two collided heavily.

, the ball jumped up and down in the end, both sides hit it, and the ball bounced up and drew a parabola. Such a high ball was ideal for the goalkeeper. Lehmann raised his hands high and picked the ball off.

Just when Porto was still regretting that their offense failed to score again, Lehmann saw Li Qiao in the distance raising his hand for the ball, so he drove over with a big kick and the ball flew straight over. This time Fusile was difficult to press.

Living with Li Qiao, his physical energy consumption was too great, and Li Qiao passed.

What a familiar scene. Fans at the Dragon Stadium have seen Li Qiao running on the court with the ball so many times, and they will cheer and jump for joy, but this time it is impossible because Li Qiao is wearing the opponent's jersey.

Because the game was about appearance, the fans didn't care about gentlemanly behavior. They began to boo Li Qiao wildly, hoping to influence Li Qiao.

At this time, the only one Arsenal could keep up with was Henry, and Li Qiao couldn't wait for Henry any longer, so he had no choice but to score the ball himself.

Facing Bruno Alves, Li Qiao moved away from an angle and then hit the far corner of the goal with the arch of his foot. This ball was just relying on his usual feeling. He pushed it to the far corner of the goal. Porto goalkeeper Elton stretched out his foot.

It was his subconscious action and he could only take a gamble, but his foot did not touch the ball and the ball slowly rolled towards the far corner of the goal.

When the ball rolled into the goal, Ferreira's heart sank to the bottom of the water. This goal meant that Porto was basically defeated, unless they could score two more goals in the last few minutes. At this time, even the most optimistic

Fans dare not imagine that this could happen.

Wenger was already celebrating in advance, knowing that this goal had basically sealed everything.

Mourinho laughed in the stands. This was the luck he said. If Postiga scored, then Porto would have the last laugh. But their luck was not that good, and Arsenal had the last laugh.

, seeing this, Mourinho had already left early because he did not want to encounter annoying reporters again after the game.

At the last moment, Ferreira was not idle. He continued to make substitutions and made a last-ditch effort, but in front of Arsenal's impeccable defense, all this seemed very futile. In the end, Porto was never able to score a goal.

At the end of the game, Arsenal defeated their opponents in the most critical battle to qualify and successfully qualified. Porto players could only shed tears. They did not squeeze out Arsenal, and Arsenal became the two qualifying teams in this group together with CSKA.

A team.
