Chapter 426

In order to ensure the fairness and openness of the league, and to ensure that games closely related to the championship or relegation will not be disturbed by off-field factors, the FA deliberately arranged the last few rounds of the Premier League to kick off at the same time.

Therefore, at the Emirates Stadium, when the referee blew the whistle for the official start of the game, on another venue, the match between Manchester City and Reading also started at the same time.

The focus of this round of the Premier League battle is undoubtedly Arsenal vs. Wigan Athletic, and Manchester City vs. Reading.

The results of these two games may directly determine the title of the Premier League champions this season.At the same time, the match between Manchester City and Reading will directly affect the situation of the relegation battle in the relegation zone.

Therefore, when the game started, these two focus horses attracted the attention of Premier League fans all over the world.

Due to Li Yuxin's absence due to injury, in this game, Wenger put French striker Giroud on the front line to replace Li Yuxin's position.

In other positions of the team, except for Diaby who was injured in training again, the rest of the players are basically regulars in the Arsenal lineup this season.

Bell's back injury has not yet fully recovered, but in this game, he was still dispatched by coach Arsene Wenger.

Mannone was suspended with a red card and Li Yuxin was unable to play. Under such circumstances, Buffon had no reason to recuperate.When the team's lineup is not complete, Bell also wants to be the banner of the Gunners. He feels that he has the responsibility to shoulder the responsibility of the team's championship and lead the team forward.

It is Buffon's responsibility to not leave the line of fire for minor injuries.

As the competition for the championship heats up, the pressure of the game is also increasing.However, in this game, neither the fans nor the Gunners players seemed arrogant or impetuous.

They didn't become eager or restrained because of the pressure of winning the championship.

The reason is simple, because of the presence of Buffon and Bale.

One is a talented player who can change the result of a game in one minute, this Welsh flying wing with unparalleled stunts, and a legendary goalkeeper who regards the world's forwards as if he is putting in bids and selling first.

With them, all miracles are possible.

After a season in the league, all the Gunners have realized this truth.

Now, they are their anchors.As long as he is present, everyone will feel at ease and at ease.

In this game, Wigan Athletic basically sent all their main players.

Although winning or losing doesn't matter, as a professional team, they still have the professionalism they should possess.

It's just that a game played in order to fulfill obligations and a game played under pressure are completely different concepts.

Although Wigan Athletic's players are also playing seriously, they are not particularly proactive due to lack of motivation.

It didn't take long for the game. Relying on the strength of the winning team and their vigorous pursuit of victory, Arsenal quickly took over the initiative of the game.

Arsenal's smooth passing and cutting cooperation in the dangerous zone caused a lot of defensive pressure on Wigan Athletic's players.

Sometimes, if they don't pay attention, the opponent will complete a breakthrough in the middle, and then directly threaten their own goal.

In the 6th minute of the half, Wilshere sent a direct pass from the middle, Giroud hit the goal in the penalty area, and the football flew to the lower right corner of the goal.

Fortunately, Wigan Athletic's goalkeeper Ali Habshi reacted quickly enough. When the football had already spun into the goal, Habshi flew to the rescue and hit the ball out of the baseline with one palm, resolving a dangerous situation in front of Wigan Athletic.

In order to prevent a similar situation from recurring, Wigan Athletic had to increase its defensive efforts at the front of the penalty area.

In this way, in some cases, fouls cannot be avoided.

In the first minute, Wigan Athletic player MacArthur pulled Wilshere from outside the penalty area. The referee whistled and awarded Arsenal a free kick.

This time the free kick was closer to the sideline, so Bell did not choose to take the penalty.

Three minutes later, Arsenal got another free kick on the other touchline.

Similarly, due to the poor free throw position, Bell did not show anything this time.

Wigan Athletic will not always be so lucky to always be able to control the place of fouling away from the goal.

Finally, in the 17th minute of half-time, forced by Arsenal's smooth and fast ground coordination, Wigan Athletic's Honduras international Menor Figueroa had to stretch his leg and trip him when he was defending Chamberlain head-on.

This time, Figueroa's foul is more terrible.

The place where he fouled Chamberlain was 26 meters away from the goal, on the left side of the top of the arc in the penalty area!
Such an opportunity, of course, Bell will not give up.

As soon as the referee blew his whistle, Bell left Arsenal's goal area and quickly ran to the front of the opponent's penalty area.

At the same time, the Gunners fans all turned their attention to Bell.Even the main camera broadcasting the game was aimed at the patron saint of Arsenal.

Currently, the score is 0:0.

When Li Yuxin was absent due to injury, Arsenal's offensive firepower was inevitably affected to a certain extent.

In today's game, Podolski, Giroud and Chamberlain all performed very actively and also got several chances to shoot.It's a pity that compared with Li Yuxin, their finishing touches are always a bit lacklustre, and so far they haven't helped the team break the deadlock.

Currently, Arsenal are only one point ahead of Manchester City.

At this time, any mistake may ruin the team's efforts for a season.Any point, any goal is priceless and extremely precious.

Arsenal want to win. Only by winning this game can they continue to lead Manchester City and put strong pressure on Manchester City to force them to make mistakes.

To win, Arsenal must score; to put pressure on Manchester City, Arsenal must score as many goals as possible.

Therefore, Arsenal desperately needed a goal in this game.

When the forwards failed to score, when Arsenal got a free kick in a good position at this time, everyone unanimously pinned the team's hope of scoring on Bell.

Arsenal need to score. Will it be Bale who breaks the scoring deadlock for Arsenal?
Everyone is looking forward to it.

Bell knows that many people are staring at him now, and he also knows that this free throw will be under great pressure, but he will not be nervous because of it.

Because, he knows that as long as he plays normally, there must be no problem with this ball!

Bell has never failed to live up to the expectations of the fans.

This time, there will be no exception!
Bell just ran across the midfield when suddenly there were exclamations from the stands.Many fans turned their eyes away from Bell and looked up at the electronic scoreboard that was empty on the field.

Noticing the abnormal behavior of the fans, Bell also glanced at the electronic scoreboard with some doubts.

It turned out that in another focus game that kicked off at the same time, a goal appeared first.

"Reading 0: 1 Manchester City, goal scorer: Balotelli!"

This is really not good news...

With a goal from the Italian bad boy, Manchester City took the lead away from Reading.

That is to say, Manchester City's current real-time league points have risen to 83.Arsenal's points at this moment are still at 81 points.

The points gap between the two teams has been widened to 2 points!
If such a point gap is maintained until the end of this round of the Premier League, Manchester City and Arsenal will have a decisive battle in the final round, and the loser will only be empty-handed!

Seeing the championship trophy so close, but now I can only helplessly watch her fly away, this is really a tragedy!

The news of Manchester City's goal sent the Gunners fans into a pessimistic mood.The powerlessness of not being able to control their own destiny arises spontaneously in each of them.

For a while, the Amir stadium fell into a silence, a silence like the wind and rain.

In the silence of the fans, Bale came to the penalty spot alone.

Although he couldn't see clearly, he felt the despair in the hearts of the fans.From the faces of the team members, he could also feel such negative emotions.

However, Bell did not waver in the slightest.

This is his free kick chance.

As long as the game is not over, then all the results may happen.

Bell knew that it was pointless to speculate on the result of the game between Reading and Manchester City.What he has to do now is to score this goal to let Arsenal lead the opponent and get the lead of the game.

No matter what the final result will be, Bell will drag Arsenal to bite tightly behind Manchester City and rush forward all the way.

As long as this is the case, once Manchester City breaks down, Arsenal will have a chance to surpass them!

Although such hope seems to be very slim now; although the fans and the team are sad and disappointed; however, Bell cannot give up!

As the soul of the team, Bell is obliged to wake up the team, continue to move forward, and fight until the last second of the season.

The best way to wake up the team is to score goals.

Bell is bound to win this free kick opportunity!

The whistle blew and Bell immediately started his run-up.

Start, accelerate, kick!

call!
The football perfectly fit Bell's expected trajectory, gliding across the top of the opponent's wall, drawing a beautiful moon arc in the air.

Over the wall, over the goalkeeper, over the goal line, into the net, football is like a happy elf, directly into the arms of Wigan Athletic's goal!
b——

Ball, scored!
Bale opens the scoring for Arsenal!

The more sharpened, the brighter.

No matter what kind of predicament it is, Bell can't be knocked down.

Manchester City are ahead, so what?

Bell announced to the world with an indisputably wonderful goal that our Gunners did not give up!The battle for the league championship is still going on!
