Chapter 343 This is your home court, you can kick you
The days passed quickly, and Chelsea’s bus arrived at the Emirates Stadium in the blink of an eye.
If you ask which two stadiums in the Premier League are closest, they are of course Liverpool's Anfield and Everton's Goodison Park.
As for how close the two golf courses are, let’s give an example.
As soon as Lei Yu scored a goal at Anfield, the cheers started at Goodison Park over there.
Back to back, side by side, the two courts can be included in the same photo.
How close is the Emirates Stadium to Stamford Bridge?
The answer is that the straight-line distance is only 11 kilometers.
This distance can be reached by riding a scooter in less than 30 minutes. It is the closest distance between the two home stadiums of cross-region teams in London.
By the way, for some more knowledge, among the many teams in London, Fulham’s home stadium Craven Cottage is the closest to Stamford Bridge, only 2.5 kilometers apart.
As for the Emirates and White Hart Lane, Old Trafford and the Etihad are only about 7 kilometers apart.
Anyway, these 11 kilometers are not enough for the fans to roar.
As soon as this side embraced the blue, the other side crashed into a sea of red fire.
Ice and fire merged in the sky above the city of London. Before the fight even started, fans from both sides were fighting to the death.
When Mourinho was here, Blues fans were very unpopular. Whenever they met a Gunners fan, they would look at each other with their noses.
Now Mourinho is gone and so is Drogba.
Blues fans had no choice but to stiffen their necks and brag about Di Matteo and Lukaku.
After hearing these two names, gun fans couldn't help laughing.
There really are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is the king.
Although Di Matteo and Mourinho are both from the "O" generation, are they really on the same level?
Apart from Lu, how can he compare with Drogba?
But the Blues' challenge to Arsenal is not groundless. They have 5 wins and 1 draw in the first six games, ranking second in the standings, which is where their confidence lies.
Although none of these six teams are in the Big 6 of the Premier League, they are still undefeated so far.
Not only that, Chelsea also won two consecutive victories in the Europa League.
In other words, in these eight games at the beginning of the season, the Blues and Gunners were also undefeated.
The only difference is that Chelsea drew one game.
...
The two teams had already quarreled with each other many times before the game, so at the press conference before the game, the head coaches of both teams were relatively restrained.
After briefly answering the reporters' questions, he stood up and left.
What else is there to say?
The battle for the top spot will have to be seen on the court!
...
In this game, the Blues' starting goalkeeper is still the helmet man Cech.
On the back line from left to right are Ashley Cole, David Luiz, captain John Terry and Ivanovic.
The two defensive midfielders are Lampard and Ramirez, the three attacking midfielders are Oscar Hazard and Mata, and the forward is Torres.
That’s right!
At this time, Lu Yuanwai was just a little shrimp in the Premier League.
Although he is known as the "Little Monster", he has not scored a Premier League goal so far.
Such a player wants to give Lei Yu a good look. It would be strange if Lei Yu didn't think the other player is crazy!
If you want to pretend to be x, you have to be someone like Torres to be of a high level!
As the game whistle sounded, Lei Yu received Giroud's return pass.
After several weeks of rest, Giroud finally returned to the game, and the familiar smell of feet was once again coming from the Arsenal dressing room.
As soon as Lei Yu caught the ball, a blue figure came towards him.
Pull the ball to the side with your feet and push sideways at the same time.
boom!
The person coming was unable to brake in time and hit Lei Yu's left arm.
thump!
Torres, who rushed forward, fell to his knees, while Lei Yu just swayed on the spot.
"Hey, referee, I didn't do anything!"
"I am the victim!"
Lei Yu raised his hands and looked at the referee with an innocent face.
The referee held his whistle in his mouth and signaled the game to continue.
This is Arsenal's home court, and he can't just call a foul just because someone falls to the ground.
"It's okay, Fernando." Mata stepped forward and pulled his teammate up from the ground.
"Why don't you go back to defense?"
Mata pointed at Lei Yu, who had already taken the ball away, and shrugged.
"If that guy runs away, my trip back will be in vain."
"Okay, I feel the same way!" Torres rubbed his shoulders.
The collision just now felt like he had hit a concrete wall.
He has such hard muscles at such a young age.
How could his girlfriend tolerate him?
Torres wondered.
Lei Yu, who pushed the ball to the opponent's goal in one line, saw the opportunity and took a direct kick.
Cazorla, who was on the wing, stretched out his right foot and easily removed the ball.
Then he took off his foot again without hesitation and blasted directly towards the goal.
boom!
There was a loud bang.
Cazorla's shot was so decisive that his opponent didn't even have time to react.
But the helmeted man in front of the Blues goal didn't need to react.
He just moved a step to the left, then quickly stretched out his hands and held the ball firmly in his arms.
"Huh~~~"
There was a cry of surprise in the sky above the chief.
The next second, the away team's Blues fans burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, let you shoot from a long distance! Are you dumbfounded? We have Cech!"
"Peter is the best goalkeeper in the world!"
"If he threatens you, none of you will!"
The fans of the visiting team were extremely angry, as if Cech in front of the goal was not a helmet man, but an iron man.
"The quality of Cazorla's ball is already very high."
"It's just that the ball path is too straight."
"Peter, who was attentive, quickly picked up."
"It seems that if you want to break through Chelsea's goal, you have to hit the ball with more tricky angles."
After the commentator cleared Cazorla's name, the ball was thrown far away by Cech to Lampard's feet.
The magic lamp, who was deeply affected by Mu's counterattack, almost didn't look at the ball after getting it, and quickly handed the ball to the frontcourt.
The fans looked around. Isn't it Hazard or who is it that is running and looking back to observe the path of the ball?
Hazard, who was born in 1991, is only one year older than Lei Yu.
The Belgian youngster has a weekly salary of 17.5 million pounds and is the top transfer bidder in the Premier League this season.
Since Abu can spend so much money, he certainly has his role.
Just looking at Azar's startup speed, I think it's worth the price.
"Hazard, Hazard!" the visiting team fans shouted.
But just when the ball was about to catch up with the outside of Hazard's trailing foot, a red figure suddenly rushed out from the side.
boom!!!
There was another muffled sound that could only be made by the collision of muscles.
Different from the result at the beginning, this time, the person who was hit flew sideways.
Before Hazard, who was 1.75 meters tall, could react, he felt as if he had been hit by a high-speed train.
Flying in the air, he just made a gesture of holding his head, and then he had his first intimate contact with the ground.
One lap, two laps, three laps.
It wasn't until the third and a half laps that the rolling Hazard finally stopped.
When the Belgian youngster looked up, he saw a calm and old face.
It's Professor Wenger!
Arsenal's coach was currently looking at the opponent player who was knocked down by Lei Yu with a calm gaze.
are you OK?
Whether it’s good or not, you deserve it!
Although Wenger didn't say a word, his expression was worth a thousand words.
If you can still stand up after being knocked down by lightning, you are a hero in yourself!
At the same time, Lei Yu stopped the rolling ball, then raised his hands and looked at the referee.
The referee also looked back at Lei Yu with a speechless expression.
