Chapter 158: Lu Huang scored again! Equalling the Henry record!!

Just two days after the Champions League exit, Arsenal are playing the 30th round of the Premier League away to Swansea.

Because the two games are too close apart, Wenger can only do a certain rotation.

Szesny suffered a minor injury, so he was placed on the bench.

The starting goalkeeper will be Fabianski, who returned from loan.

The back four are Jan Million, Mertesack, Koscielny, Monreal.

In midfield are Cazorla, Arteta and Diaby.

Center Lu Junfeng.

Chamberlain on the left, Walcott on the right.

Also on the bench are Giroud, Hot Birds, Ramsey, Coquelin, Vermaelen and Gibbs.

Gibbs finally returned from injury, but Little Threat and Bo went back to bed and had to rest for a while.

Swansea’s starting XI was goalkeeper Worm.

Defenders Angel Rangel, Monk, Ashley Williams, Ben Davies.

Midfielders sent Makoto, Britten, De Guzman, Nathandale, Pablo Hernandez.

Striker Michu.

Swansea and Arsenal have a strong relationship this season.

First, Swansea’s 2-0 win away at Arsenal in the league caused a big upset, leaving Wenger criticized by a group of passionate Arsenal fans.

They then met in the FA Cup and played twice, with Arsenal knocking out Swansea.

They met again in the Carabao Cup final not long ago, where Arsenal beat Swansea City to win their first title in eight years.

This made Swansea fans hate Arsenal because it was the closest they came to the title!

They hope that the team can beat Arsenal in the league and avenge the loss of the Carabao Cup!

So the Swansea fans booed the Arsenal players like crazy.

Especially Lu Junfeng, as soon as he took the ball, he was booed wildly.

He became a thorn in the side of Swansea fans, a thorn in the flesh!

However, Arsenal players have long been accustomed to this kind of treatment away from home.

Swansea’s away game was nothing compared to some of the other Devils’ away games, with Arsenal getting a corner kick in the opening two minutes.

Casola took a corner kick and Lu Junfeng struggled to nod his header to the goal, which ended up high over the crossbar.

Swansea’s side was crossed by Hernandez and Nathandale’s shot deflected from distance.

It wasn’t long before Cazorla sent an oblique pass to the left.

Chamberlain forced his breakthrough into the box with the ball and hit the crossbar with a hard kick! After that, the Arsenal players were visibly tired.

In addition to Lu Junfeng, several core players on the field have consumed too much physical strength in the Champions League match against Bayern.

And the Swansea players took a week off, full of physical fitness, plus playing at home, and the fighting spirit was high.

They began to take control of the situation on the field.

Arsenal’s side can only play a counterattack, but Lu Junfeng is taken care of by the front and rear strikes, and it is difficult to control the ball.

Fortunately, Swansea team’s attacks were deflected off the goal on several occasions and failed to threaten.

After kicking for more than twenty minutes, it began to rain in the sky, and it was getting heavier and heavier.

The slippery field is even more detrimental to the performance of Arsenal’s players.

The two sides were in a messy battle in midfield.

It wasn’t until the 40th minute that Cazorla took possession of the ball and cut straight ahead of Monreal on the left flank and dribbled the ball to the bottom line.

“Middle Road! Give the high ball,” Lu Junfeng shouted in the box.

But he was caught between the opposing two centre-backs and it was difficult to pass through.

So the ball Monreal passed an inverted triangle to Oxlade-Chamberlain outside the penalty area.

Chamberlain pulled out his leg and shot angrily!

“Bang!”

The ball still hit the beam hard! Fortunately, the ball just bounced towards Lu Junfeng!

Lu Junfeng was one step faster than the other party and stuck his head out, one top! The opposing goalkeeper failed to react!

Goal!!!!!!!!!

The ball is in!

Arsenal finally broke the deadlock!

1:0!

This is Lu Junfeng’s 39th goal for Arsenal! 23rd goal in the Premier League!

With 39 goals in a single season, it has equalled Henry’s most speaking balls in a single season at Arsenal!

Lu Junfeng is indeed a new generation of gun kings! The fans were silent.

This Lu Junfeng is really their nemesis!

The goal completely relaxed the Arsenal players.

Then just feel free to fight back.

The first half ended quickly, and the players hurried back to change their clothes.

They have long since become soup chickens.

In the second half, the rain was still falling, but much less.

The Swansea players stepped up their scramble, but their attack was still scoreless

The situation was completely reversed from the first meeting in the league, with Arsenal patiently defending and fighting back.

It’s just that because the field is slippery, the pass success rate is not high.

In the 70th minute, Wenger made adjustments and summoned Oxlade-Chamberlain and Dia Dagger with hot birds and Ramsey.

The Hot Birds came on and got rid of the defense with a beautiful pass and burst into the box with the ball.

“Hot bird! I’m in the middle, inverted triangle one! ”

Lu Junfeng shouted.

It is a pity that the hot bird’s cross is too light, and it is easily intercepted by the other side.

He is really the same, no wonder he lost the main position.

In the 74th minute, Arsenal was inserted by the wing, and the cross was cleared by the opposing defender early, and Arsenal won a corner.

The corner was headed out, but it was the Arsenal players who controlled the ball from the outside.

Monreal pushed forward with the ball and finally passed to Cazorla…
