Chapter 411: The Last Moment
The two sides played so thrillingly in the last ten minutes. Arsenal kept passing through and breaking through to try to create a free kick opportunity for Li Shou. Liverpool was thinking about whether he could make another counterattack.
No one is willing to accept the result of 0:0. Arsenal is the defending champion. The goal of this season is to defend the title. Liverpool will not talk about the championship for now, but at least they will return to the top four.
Liverpool has invested a lot in the past two years. Although some players have recovered their health and although Liverpool is a giant, in fact, Liverpool is not generous. If they cannot enter the Champions League for a long time, it will be a huge blow to Liverpool.
What is a wealthy family? In addition to the background behind them and the glory of their ancestors, they must always be at the forefront of the league. Soccer has developed to this day, and the Champions League has also become a criterion for a wealthy family.
If Liverpool cannot climb up quickly, then what is waiting for is slowly weakening and gradually forgetting. This is also the reason why Liverpool and Manchester United have invested so much in recent years, because they are anxious to climb back to the top four, and they do not want to lose their identity as a giant.
Football has entered the era of gold and dollar. Money can change a lot of things to some extent, and the top four are also financial guarantees. If Manchester United and Liverpool cannot return to their previous lives with such investment, they are likely to collapse on their own.
In the 81st minute, Walcott desperately broke into Liverpool's penalty area, but Liverpool just did not make a foul and would rather let Walcott approach the goal.
When Walcott approached the goal, he had to shoot even if he didn't want to kick the ball, but Liverpool couldn't let Walcott get the ball easily.
So Walcott's shot was not threatening in the end, but Arsenal soon made a comeback, and Sanchez, who had the ball broken through this time.
Compared with Walcott Sanchez's breakthrough, it is more threatening because Sanchez's feet has better skills, and there is no way for England and South American players to compare in this regard.
South American players rely on their skills, and in the eyes of South American players, English players are absolutely "rough" brothers. The facts have not changed until recent years.
In the past, England had only one way to play football, which was the so-called long-term pass and rush. However, to be honest, teams from all countries were good at playing one or two ways, but the development of football has become more vague and changeable.
Liverpool re-used the same trick, but Sanchez was better than Walcott after all, so his final shot was quite threatening, but Cech performed so well.
Seeing Cech fly over to save Sanchez's shot again, Arsenal fans couldn't help but curse Chelsea. You said you should keep Cech in the team but it's better to be a substitute. You won't lose so badly in the first two rounds. No matter how bad Cech is, you should send Cech to other leagues. Now, it's not only to make things difficult for other teams, but also to make things difficult for Chelsea themselves.
Even Arsenal fans have started praying, praying that Liverpool will perform better when they meet Chelsea than they do today.
On the court, the game continued. In the 86th minute, Liverpool finally made a counterattack, but it was not a quick counterattack, but just a normal counterattack.
Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to break through the goal guarded by Li Shou. This has been proven by Li Shou for a season, so Liverpool's last shot was confiscated by Li Shou.
Li Shou immediately threw the ball to Bellerin, and Arsenal completely counterattacked. The ball came to Chamberlain's feet. Chamberlain's dribbling and skills were also good. He could not only play on the side, but also play on the middle, which was quite a panacea in Arsenal's lineup.
However, this is actually not a good thing for a young player. Wenger knows this, but it has not been done. Arsenal is currently in this situation. Sanchez and Griezmann have a stable position, and even if there is rotation, there is Walcott, so if Chamberlain wants to get the opportunity, he must wait until the one-week doubles.
The young player who came to defend Chamberlain was also a young player. Roster had previously appeared on the bench. Although Roster replaced Emrejan, he tried to play in the midfield.
Chamberlain did not always lead him, and immediately distributed it to Sanchez after entering Liverpool's hinterland. Sanchez cooperated with Griezmann, trying to tear open Liverpool's defense through passes or force Liverpool to foul.
Liverpool's determination to not be willing to foul was very firm. He would rather let Griezmann shoot than foul. Rogers actually had a bet on this, and he put all the bets on Cech.
Cech did not disappoint Rodgers. He once again used a wonderful save to resolve Griezmann's shot. After Griezmann's shot, Arsenal did not get a shot before stoppage time. Liverpool also had the opportunity to threaten Arsenal's goal.
"It seems that this game should end in a draw," but after the fourth official announced stoppage time, the result of the game was almost no suspense.
In the stands, although Arsenal fans were unwilling to give up, they could only accept the current situation. Even the head coaches on both sides had returned to their seats.
Three minutes of stoppage time, and soon a minute passed. Although the ball was at Arsenal's feet, he could not send the ball to Liverpool's penalty area.
Liverpool has given up the idea of counterattacking and just wants to defend this draw. Rodgers is very clear that his team has not yet been able to get into the best, and it is not unacceptable to play a draw with Arsenal in this situation. After all, Arsenal is the defending champion and the second treble-win team in the Premier League.
Wenger has also accepted that the season has just begun, and a draw is nothing, and there is no team that can keep winning all the time.
But some people don't want a draw, that is, Li Shou. Li Shou's goal is the Golden Globe Award. Although the triple-winning champion of last season made Li Shou a big hit, he faced two rulers, Messi and Ronaldo.
Therefore, Li Shou hopes that the team will win the game as much as possible, thereby increasing the chips he can get to the golden ball. As a goalkeeper, he needs to rely on his teammates in offense, and even if he takes the same free kick, he needs to create a teammate.
Leaving the goal, he directly participated in the offense. Although Li Shou was eager for victory, he was not so crazy. You should know that in the past, Li Shou used to take the free kick and would not leave the goal easily.
Time passed, and a minute passed again in a blink of an eye. This time the ball had already reached Liverpool's feet. Although Rodgers had accepted the draw and even the players accepted it, when the ball came to his feet, Liverpool's players still couldn't help but want to give it a try.
As a result, the ball was cut off by Arsenal just after halftime. Coquelin still performed well this season. This time, he predicted the position in advance and cut off the ball halfway.
