Chapter 223 Injury
Before the game, Pochettino repeatedly emphasized not to foul the left side outside the penalty area, because the two goals of the Arsenal goalkeeper were scored on this side.
Although Li Shou only scored two free kicks, he only scored twice in total, with a goal rate of 100%. Whether it is once or twice, as long as he scored the goal, he must be careful.
For a moment, everyone's eyes focused on Arsenal's goal, but what was disappointing was that the goalkeeper's figure never moved.
"Li, don't you go up and kick." If the defense line wants to say that it is best to have a relationship with Li Shou, it must be Chambers.
"Kalum, I am the goalkeeper. Do you have to rely on me to score goals now?" Li Shou rolled his eyes and complained.
Although it felt very good to score the goal, Li Shou knew very well what his job was to do. Although Li Shou took the free kick twice, he took the initiative to step forward, but that was because there was no way at that time.
Monaco was about winning the championship. The players were so nervous that their mentality and movements changed. Li Shou went to stabilize the morale of the army. As for facing Dortmund, it was not only about the Champions League, but also Li Shou's own Champions League debut. The game was already at the last moment.
Not only Li Shou himself, but also the system repeatedly warned Li Shou that although he gave the skill of free kick master, he did not want Li Shou to put the cart before the horse.
"Li actually rejected this free kick opportunity. It seems that Li still has a clear understanding of his job." Li Shou's refusal surprised many people.
"Li knew very well when to change what to do. He faced Dortmund before because the team had no choice at that time. He volunteered for the final victory," said Paul Merson.
"Yes, maybe this is what Li is special." Li Shou's behavior was praised and affirmed.
Wenger on the sidelines looked at Li Shou with appreciation. Although Wenger was a little expecting Li Shou to go up and enter another one at first, now Wenger feels that Li Shou’s decision is the most correct.
Li Shou did not take the penalty, so naturally Griezmann, who created this opportunity, took the penalty. Griezmann's free kick was also quite high, but Loris' performance was also excellent.
Loris is the main goalkeeper of the French national team and is currently the best goalkeeper in France. Even in the entire European football world, Loris can be regarded as a top goalkeeper.
Then Spurs hit a counterattack, and just tackled Griezmann and Kapuer was tackled back by an Arsenal player. Chamberlain also applied for a yellow card.
This is the North London derby. Less than five minutes into the game, both sides have applied for a yellow card.
Tottenham took an indirect free kick, Li Shou decisively shot the ball out, and Arsenal counterattacked quickly, but in the end this counterattack failed to form some shots. The ball was cleared by Loris after the cross.
Speaking of which, Loris is somewhat similar to Li Shou. Both of them are tall among goalkeepers, but they are very capable of controlling air, especially Li Shou. In addition, the speed, explosive power and reactions of both of them are excellent. Of course, Li Shou in all aspects is better than Loris.
It may be better to say this, that is, Loris is like a weakened version of Li Shou, but even a weakened version is still the top goalkeeper in today's football world.
Four minutes later, Ramsey shot a long shot. Arsenal midfielder received a direct pass from Arteta and cooperated with Wilshire to the penalty area, but the final shot failed to hit the goal frame.
In two minutes, Arsenal made a comeback. Chamberlain launched an attack on the wing again and made another cross from the bottom, but this time the cross was cleared by Loris.
It was only three, but when Chamberlain sent out the third cross in this game, the ball finally reached the front of Velbeck, but who is Velbeck?
The British Emperor Star Generation? A genius who has appeared in English football every 20 years? No, he is a wise man who cannot score, and he will never score a goal.
Chamberlain's cross was quite high. The ball directly penetrated the defending players in the Tottenham's penalty area and landed accurately in front of Velbeck. Even in the face of this cross, Velbeck did not need to adjust.
"Wilbeck is still the same Wilbeck. The goal in the last round of the league may be just an accident. After all, anything can happen on the court, so it is normal to get one." As the saying goes, love is deep and blame is urgent. As Arsenal's former meritorious service, Paul Merson still has deep feelings for the team.
"Paul, how about we bet? This season, we bet on who has more goals from Welbeck or Lee," Andy Gray suddenly suggested.
"Then I choose Lee." There is a striker like Villebeck. Even if Li Shou doesn't want to come out and play a free kick, he will probably be forced to kick by Wenger, because if Arsenal wants to win, someone must score a goal.
"Hey, then this bet can't be established," Andy Gray said dissatisfied.
"Oh~~~Arteta, the captain of the arsenal fell to the ground, Tottenham Hotspur foul, Ramela flew to Arteta" The captain of the Arsenal fell to the ground with a look of pain, while the Argentinian looked innocent.
"Red card~~~" In the stands at Emirates Stadium, Arsenal fans began to put pressure on the referee.
But in fact, the Arsenal did not get what he wanted. The referee, who was less than 30 years old, just took out a yellow card, and then booed the Emirates Stadium.
"The curse of injury is still entangled with Arsenal, and Arteta should not be able to persist in the game." After the Arsenal team doctor's examination, Wenger helplessly made the first substitution in this game, and Flamini replaced the injured Arteta.
After Arsenal's substitution, Tottenham Hotspur hit a small climax and completed three shots in a row. In the 27th minute, Adebayo received a pass and was saved by Li Shou.
Tottenham won the first corner kick of the game, and this corner kick ended with Li Shou clearing. Tottenham players are good at height, center back Kable is more than 1.9 meters, and Adebayo is also more than 1.9 meters, but in front of Li Shou, it is useless not to mention 1.9 meters or 2 meters.
However, the ball cleared was still Tottenham. Eriksen directly shot a long shot in the penalty area. This time, Li Shou didn't need to save it because the ball flew into the stands.
In the 34th minute, Tottenham Hotspur once again broke into the Arsenal penalty area. This time it was Adebayo, with a cross from the wing, but the ball was not pushed by Adebayo because someone took a step to clear the ball.
However, the same thing happened again, and the clearing ball fell at the feet of the Tottenham players again, and then another long shot was shot. This time Li Shou saved.
And this time, Li Shou confiscated the ball directly because the opponent's shot was not very threatening. Li Shou then took the ball, but the ball was cut off by Tottenham again. In order to block Tottenham's attack, Wilhel made a tackle foul and Arsenal received another yellow card.
