Chapter 683: Dead Bite
Henry, Borgkamp, Reyes, Heleb, Lungberg, and Cole, with Fabregas and strong assists, Arsenal's offensive players on the court are really not limited, but in this environment, increasing offensive players may not necessarily increase the chance of scoring...
Jose also used the second substitution quota, Sissoko replaced Mendeta to increase the midfield's running ability - Mallorca started to play more defense, and at the same time did not reduce the strength of counterattack. In the next ten minutes, they only needed not to concede two goals, and at the same time they would definitely get much more counterattack opportunities than before...
Borgkamp got the chance to get the ball from a very small angle. He passed the ball to the middle. Van der Sar attacked in time and hit the ball out. Fabregas outside the penalty area directly shot from a long distance, but was blocked by Sissoko, who rushed over to fill the ball with his body. The ball flew to the sideline, and Macon cleared the ball out with his big foot.
Amid the shouts of Arsenal fans not giving up, Arsenal's offense became more and more fierce. They gave up defense, and even the two central defenders kept in the attack, leaving the gaps in the backcourt blockbusters - at this time, they no longer cared about defense, only attack in their eyes
However, Mallorca's united defense made their offensive effect not very good. In a time, when the fourth official played the four-minute stoppage time on the sidelines, Arsenal fans were almost desperate...
At this time, Mallorca's successful counterattack made them completely desperate
After Senna intercepted the ball, she passed it directly to Kaka. Kaka quickly passed the ball to Silva. Silva began to dribble the ball from the left, while Mallorca's Torreskaka and Klose shot three arrows at Arsenal's goal.
At this last moment, Mallorca's counterattack was still so determined
Silva ran quickly on the sideline, dribbling the ball while observing the situation in the middle. Arsenal no longer had a full-back on this side, and Ebue had already left the field. Although Hleb was desperately returning to defense, he was still left behind by Silva.
When breaking through to the point where it was level with the penalty area line, Silva began to cut in. Arsenal's defenders returned to defense set their sights on Mallorca's two forwards who scored one goal in this game, but Silva had a beautiful pass and picked the ball to the front of the penalty area.
Kaka rushed up like an arrow, facing the falling ball, and volleyed the ball with a bow and arrow.
The ball flew into Arsenal's goal like lightning. Mallorca's third goal was also a goal that completely ended the game.
"gooooal three to two, Mallorca fell behind in the first two times, tied twice, and won the final game before the final game. Mallorca showed their characteristics of being able to score goals in adversity. The total score was four to two, double defeated Arsenal, Mallorca first entered the final of this season's Champions League first, their opponent in the final will be the winner between Barcelona and AC Milan. Congratulations to Mallorca, who has entered the final three times in four years and reached at least the quarterfinals in the Champions League in five years. Mallorca has been the best team in the Champions League in the past five years, and has reached the quarterfinals in the Champions League in the past five years.
It was not until this time that Jose breathed a long sigh, and then shouted Farinos from the bench, preparing to replace Kaka with him.
This is Kaka's eighth goal in the Champions League this season. Although it is just a icing goal on the cake, it makes him the second-ranked player in the Champions League scorer list, second only to Shepchenko, who scored nine goals. Torres also scored seven goals in the Champions League, ranking third in the scorer list - there are two of the top three in the scorer list. Mallorca still maintains their characteristics this season, that is, to defeat the world with offense
Amid the applause of more than 2,000 Mallorca fans, Kaka ran off the court and hugged Farinos. He raised his hands and signaled in the stands. This season was also a season where Kaka performed well. Not only in the Champions League, but also scored quite a lot of goals in the league. Before the World Cup, Kaka also showed his top form.
In addition, the two lines are not the most goals, but Torres, who always scored key goals, and Mallorca's trident began to reach its peak after a year of running-in. The only regret is that they probably won't get too many opportunities in the league. After all, they are still five points behind Barcelona. With only four rounds left in the league, the possibility of winning the championship is no longer too high.
Jose is very calm about this. Not every team at the top can achieve good results. Now Mallorca has entered the finals of the Champions League. If he can win the championship, it will also be a successful season. Don't be too demanding.
A few minutes later, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, and the players of Mallorca cheered one after another - no one went to shake hands with the referee, because in this game, the Austrian referee let go of several serious fouls by Arsenal. If Mallorca had not played the top level in this game, the game would have been very difficult.
The referee still won even if the referee's penalty was slightly unfavorable, and Mallorca did not once or twice
Arsenal fans in the stands were quite sad - their home court, carrying countless glorious Highbury Stadiums' last Champions League game, ended in a defeat, which is also a very cruel thing for Arsenal, but this is the world of football. If you don't fall behind, you have to beat others a little harder.
Jose walked over and shook hands with Wenger. Looking at Wenger with a gloomy expression, Jose felt a little reluctant. Wenger's highest glory moment in the European arena was destroyed by him, but he also thought that Arsenal would lose to Barcelona anyway. If that's the case, it would be better to let my team enter the finals. At least Mallorca will be more confident than Arsenal...
After chatting with Wenger for a few words, Jose called his players to go back to the wardrobe room and returned to Mallorca - there is nothing to celebrate on other people's courts, and now Mallorca has not won the Champions League championship. We want to celebrate and celebrate after the finals are over.
After winning the game, Mallorca did not rest in London. Instead, after taking a day off that night, he immediately returned to Mallorca the next day. After giving the players a day off, Jose began to pay attention to another game - on the next night, the confrontation between Barcelona and AC Milan was about to begin...
This game is not much different from history. Both sides had a beautiful offensive game at Camp Nou, but unfortunately they failed to score. Etoo had two good opportunities to be resolved by Dida, AC Milan's offense also failed to score under Barcelona's defense. Shepchenko once scored a header in the second half, but was judged to be a foul on Pujol. After a zero-to-zero score, AC Milan could only accept two rounds of zero-to-one out. Barcelona and Mallorca met in the Champions League final. This season's Champions League final will be the two-way match of La Liga teams at the French Stadium.
"Okay, our opponent is Barcelona, and there are still twenty days left before the finals. What we have to do is to try our best to hold Barcelona in these twenty days so that they cannot enter the finals in the best condition, at least we cannot make our condition worse than Barcelona when we enter the finals."
In the next twenty days, the schedule will be like this - May 1, 4 and 7, the 35th, 36th and 37th consecutive La Liga rounds, followed by May 14th, the final of the La Liga Cup will be held at the French Stadium on May 18th, and only Mallorca and Barcelona have the chance to win the league championship, so after consultation, the La Liga Committee announced the two games in the last round, namely Mallorca's home game against Zaragoza and Barcelona's away game.
The match against Athletic Bilbao will be held in advance until May 10th. Other La Liga teams do not have much opinions on this. After all, this does not have much impact on them. Barcelona's current points are 76 points, Mallorca's points are 71 points, Valencia, the third-ranked points are only 65 points, and Real Madrid's points are only 63 points. They basically have no hope of winning the championship, especially in the last round, Barcelona and Mallorca cannot only get one or two points in the next three games at the same time, giving them a chance to catch up.
In this case, Jose needs to think carefully about what to do next...
In the next thirteen days, Mallorca will play four league games, and will play one league game on average in three days. Next is a week's rest time, and then the most important Champions League final. In these games, Mallorca will continue to bite Barcelona so that they cannot easily win the league championship, invest more energy in the league, and try to avoid the main players being injured in these games, and keep them in sufficient form in these games...
It is also a test of Jose and Mallorca's relationship.
However, Jose has a high interest in this and wants to do all this well
After two days of rest, Mallorca ushered in the 35th round of the league. Jose knew that Barcelona would never give up the next league. After all, if you are not careful at this time, it may cost them more energy in the league. If the team wants to get enough rest before the game, you need to win consecutive games in the next game and completely win the league championship in advance to get more rest opportunities before the Champions League.
Rijcard did think so. He was already unpredictable by Jose's endless interference. He only knows one thing now. As long as his team wins three more games, the league champion will be from Barcelona. Even if Jose has a thousand tricks, there is no way.
Jose asked him to do this - Barcelona sent most of the main players to fight in the league, which could also consume enough energy. At this time, Mallorca was constantly adjusting the players' state. When it came to the final, the chances of winning would naturally be greater.
Barcelona sent most of the main players away, and then they relied on Eto'o's 24th league goal this season to defeat Celta 1-0 away, while Mallorca sent a half-main and half-substitute away, and finally defeated Atletico Madrid by relying on right-back Campano's volleyball shot from the front of the penalty area, continuing to chase Barcelona with a five-point advantage - Mallorca can use this mixed lineup to play the game, because even if they lose, it's nothing great, while Barcelona can only try to send the main players to win, because they can't afford to lose - if they lose, they may be narrowed by Mallorca's points gap. But Mallorca's substitutes are very powerful, and in this case they still bit Barcelona tightly...
