football world number one

Chapter 581

Arsenal can be said to be the club with the most fans in the world. From the end of the last century to the present, this team has left too many fond memories for the fans under Wenger's leadership.

The brilliance of the Highbury era, Henry's incredible performance, and the perfect memory of 49 unbeaten rounds, there is no dispute that this team is one of the best clubs in the world in the past 20 years.

The only thing that makes people regret is the Champions League final in 2006. The Gunners were only one step away from the highest honor of that European club.

Therefore, this team, whether it is players, fans or even Wenger, has an extraordinary attachment to the Champions League. Everyone in Arsenal is looking forward to one day being able to stand on the stage of the Champions League final again and win that trophy.

It's a pity that as a group of veterans slowly left the team, Arsenal, which moved to the Emirates Stadium, seemed to have gradually lost their competitiveness. It was not until young players such as Fafa and Van Persie began to rise that they started to improve.

This season, Arsenal can be said to be struggling in the Champions League and want to go further, and the whole team also holds this belief, so after repeated defeats at the Leonardo Stadium, the team's anger slowly surged up.

For a team of Arsenal's style, anger can often be better transformed into strength. For example, at this moment, the entire team is chillingly calm.

I don't know when, Piacenza's possession rate began to decline. When Conte and the players realized that they were starting to lose the ball, Arsenal had completely mastered the rhythm of the court.

Under Fabregas' scheduling and the joint efforts of all players, Arsenal played beautiful football at the Leonardo Stadium. Whether it is the level of pass control or the transfer of rhythm, this team that has already been full of Wenger's characteristics has achieved the ultimate.

In the commentary room, Liu Jianhong exclaimed from time to time for the wonderful performances of the Gunners players. Compared with them, the Piacenza team seemed a little clumsy and rigid.

Finally, with seven and 10 minutes to go, Arsenal bared their fangs at Piacenza.

The fangs were so ferocious that the ensuing 10 minutes were once regarded by Piacenza fans as the team's darkest 10 minutes.

First, in the 703rd minute of the game, Arsenal intercepted the ball in the backcourt. Vermaelen passed the ball past the pressing Aubameyang and gave the ball to Nasri.

Nasri, who dribbled the ball forward and broke through, split the ball as soon as he encountered Ramirez's defense. Fabregas, who received the ball in the middle, poked it out with his right foot when facing the ball from the right.

Nainggolan, who was defending Fabregas, obviously did not think of this move. He was caught off guard and only turned around after being bumped by Cesc Fabregas. This is obviously not enough in the ever-changing football field.

"Cesc Fabregas dribbles in, he's already in front of Piacenza's penalty area, and he goes straight to the left!"

In the lens of God's perspective, Liu Jianhong saw an extremely clear passing route, but at the moment Scarpelli, whose eyes were on Xiaofa who was constantly pressing on him, couldn't.

When his eyes followed the ball to his right, Arshavin had already broken into the penalty area with the ball.

"Scapelli quickly turned around and rushed over. Arshavin didn't control the ball and passed the ball again. Van Persie got the ball on the right side of the penalty area!"

Like an obedient elf, the ball played a beautiful movement at the feet of the Arsenal players, and the movement did not stop even after it came to Van Persie's feet.

"Van Persie dribbles in from the right, Miranda scrambles to defend, flicks the ball, the ball goes over Miranda's outstretched right foot, Fabregas! He's in front of the ball."

There is no harm without comparison. The linkage of the three players made Piacenza's defenders look extremely sluggish. When the ball returned to Fabregas' feet again, there was no other defensive player except Maurantanio who was extremely nervous in front of him.

This kind of attack difficulty is not worth mentioning to Xiaofa, who started to play for Arsenal as early as 16 years old. He just lightly padded the ball in front of him, and the ball flew gracefully over Tanio's waving hands into the goal.

"Goal! Fabregas!"

Facing such a wonderful goal, Liu Jianhong, who is a commentator, has already been conquered. He directly applauded for it in the commentary room: "A standard Arsenal-style goal, Piacenza's defenders did not touch the ball at all during the process."

At the Leonardo Stadium, the Arsenal fans who were traveling with the team were already shouting excitedly. After the team equalized the score in such a way, their mood began to become more cheerful again.

But on the pitch, Arsenal's players did not celebrate for too long.

After scoring the goal, Fabregas rushed into the goal the next moment. He held the ball in his arms and ran all the way back to the serving point, while the other Gunners players followed him closely behind him.

"Oh~, Arsenal have already put the ball away, and they seem to be calling for the Piacenza players to kick off quickly?"

Liu Jianhong's guess was very correct. The Arsenal players who were more active in re-kick-off than Piacenza were doing exactly this. After the Piacenza players who were in a complicated mood stood up again, the referee immediately blew the whistle to restart the game.

When the ball was re-opened, Conte and Wenger on the sidelines began to prepare for substitutions, but there was no dead ball time in the game on the field.

This situation lasted until the game No. 80 minutes before it was over, but the way it ended made Conte very helpless.

It was the 708th minute of the match No. [-], when Piacenza took possession of the ball and attacked. When Ganso took the ball past Diaby who was grabbing it, he encountered a joint interception by Xiaofa and Nasri.

This time, he did not stage another wonderful one-two breakthrough. After he turned around and was caught by Nasri, the ball was broken by Fabregas' outstretched foot.

Afterwards, Fabregas, who had adjusted his direction, directly kicked a long pass. In Piacenza's overall forward formation to match this attack, two figures in Arsenal jerseys were extremely obvious.

"Van Persie, perfect stop!"

Seeing that Van Persie just stretched out his right leg and stopped the ball in front of him, Liu Jianhong exclaimed again, but this was not over yet, and an even more shocking scene happened in the next moment.

"Oh!"

"He hit the goal directly!!! Van Persie kicked directly out of the penalty area!"

Like a crescent moon, the ball made a perfect arc in the air. Its height made Maurantanio, who was standing forward, helpless. In less than a second, the ball appeared in the goal again.

Only at the critical moment can the true qualities of the gunner be shown, and the top giants should be like this.

　Chapter 1 here!Thanks to "Looking Back at the Past" for the monthly pass!
　　PS: In the latter part of the Wenger era, Arsenal did decline more and more, but this did not affect the deep impression this team had left on the fans.
