"Arsenal is fighting away from home...Of course they can also get a draw, but at least it has to be a 1:1 draw, so that the game can be dragged into overtime and a penalty shootout. But I want to ask someone who would not choose this strategy.
He prefers that his team defeat the opponent in the game, which is the safest..."
The game has just started, and the commentator is introducing the background information of the game to the TV audience.
"Lazio now has an away goal, and they drew with Arsenal on the road in the last round. Overall, the situation is in their favor... but if Lazio takes it lightly, it will be a great opportunity for Arsenal!"
This commentator actually suspected that Lazio underestimated their opponent.
If he had known what happened in the Lazio dressing room, he would not have said that.
How could this Lazio team take it so lightly?
They can't wait to defeat Arsenal directly from the beginning of the game and advance to the semi-finals!
This is what they thought and what they did.
At the beginning of the game, Lazio launched a fierce offensive like Arsenal, which was completely different from the slow strategy they used when they played Arsenal away from home.
They attack aggressively and have many sharp direct passes. David Silva and Benzema constantly cross and switch positions in the frontcourt. Falcao frequently retreats to connect with players in the midfield and backfield, and then distributes the football.
, to be a qualified transfer station.
The Lazio team was completely different from the slow pace of the first round, which made Arsenal very uncomfortable.
Wenger has studied Lazio, and the current tactics played by Lazio in this game are the tactics Lazio plays most of the time. But Wenger feels that Lazio should not use this tactic in this game. Because it is too open.
For a team like Arsenal with excellent offensive power, it will give Arsenal too many opportunities.
He believes that with his cautious character of always winning, he will never let the team take any risks.
So if nothing else happens, we will win this game and continue the tactics from the previous round. We will slowly deal with Arsenal.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the game started, Lazio took the game into the fast lane.
Arsenal, who was originally planning to slowly deal with Lazio, was dragged onto the highway and ran wildly. Then they quickly couldn't keep up with Lazio's pace.
In the tenth minute, Lazio scored. The goal was still Falcao.
The Olympic Stadium erupted into huge cheers: "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!!"
"A great start! Lazio took the lead at home! Now Lazio leads Arsenal 2:1 with a total score! Arsenal must get a goal back, otherwise they will be eliminated!"
※※※
Wenger saw this scene on the sidelines and frowned.
He didn't arrive at Lazio first but he would play such an aggressive tactic at home...
He thought about it and decided to give Lazio a try.
Anyway, playing like this is exactly what Arsenal is good at.
The worst thing is to fight each other!
He is quite confident in Arsenal's offensive ability.
With a wave of his hand, Arsenal changed their strategy. They no longer planned to deal cautiously with Lazio. Instead, they planned to attack Lazio!
This is in line with Arsenal's style!
Regardless of victory or defeat, Arsenal will always be on the road to offensive football!
※※※
The next game was a feast for the eyes of those neutral fans.
Lazio and Arsenal were going back and forth, constantly attacking, and both sides played very openly.
In the 33rd minute, Lazio scored another goal. Benzema scored a single goal past three people in a row.
Lazio leads Arsenal with a total score of 3:1.
But Arsenal have not lost their fighting spirit.
They pulled a goal back towards the end of the first half through Robin van Persie.
Now they also have an away goal. They are only one goal behind in the total score. As long as they can score another goal to equalize the total score, then they will have the opportunity to advance with the away goal advantage.
Hope is ahead!

During the halftime break, Changsheng did not adjust its tactics, but let the players continue to attack Arsenal.
He wanted to know whether his team's choice to attack on such an important stage as the Champions League quarter-finals would have a good result. He wanted to test his team's offensive power.
Can he win the Champions League this season by relying on offense?
He wants to know the result.
Wenger originally thought that Lazio would choose to defend in the second half. He thought that his team's offense in the first half should have left a deep impression on Chang Sheng. If he was smarter, he would choose to let it go.
So Arsenal's attack became more intense in the second half, and they didn't even think that they actually needed to strengthen their defense.
As a result, at the beginning of the second half, Wenger was shocked again.
Because Lazio's offense almost broke Arsenal's goal!
Attack!
Another confrontation!
However, although Wenger was taken aback, he did not change his mind.
His team was still attacking, even when faced with the reality that the opponent might score a goal, they did not give up.
Because what else can Arsenal do now but attack?
Only attack!
If you don’t die during the attack, just explode during the attack.
The pace of the second half was faster, with both sides constantly going back and forth. The transition between offense and defense was very fast.
Because the speed is fast, some mistakes are inevitable, and these mistakes also make the game full of uncertainty.
Sometimes, people will think that Lazio will win, but maybe three minutes later, people will think that Arsenal has escaped death.
This entangled and stalemate state lasted until the 70th minute.
Arsenal's attack was intercepted by Jose Passarella, and then they directly launched the attack with a long pass.
After Falcao used his body to protect the ball in the frontcourt, he passed the ball to Modric who quickly broke in.
Modric dribbled the ball straight in. At the front of the penalty area, he suddenly passed the ball to Benzema!
Benzema did not stop the ball and directly met the ball and shot.
The football drew an arc and bypassed Arsenal goalkeeper Lehmann's fingers.
Then it flew into the back corner of the goal!
3:1!
Lazio leads with a total score of 4:2!
※※※
However, Arsenal did not give up after losing the ball. Their offense was still fierce, as if they didn't know they were behind by two goals again.
Because apart from attacking, they really have no other way to win this game.
In the 77th minute, Arsenal stubbornly pulled a goal back.
The total score became 4:3! They were only one goal away again.
The fire of hope is lit again!
In the last ten minutes of the game, the two sides launched an extremely fierce fight and competition.
The smell of gunpowder between the two sides has also increased.
When Van Persie was kicked to the ground by Pavin, the Arsenal players rushed to accuse Pavin and put pressure on the referee, hoping that he would play the card. However, the referee only gave Pavin a verbal warning. There was no such thing.
Not long after, Walcott kicked Pavon down in retaliation and received a yellow card. This made the Arsenal players increasingly dissatisfied, surrounding the referee and talking non-stop.
England's commentator couldn't help complaining: "What are you surrounding? What's there to surround? Are you surrounded by referees now? What you lack most now is time! As long as Arsenal scores one goal, they can eliminate their opponents."
, is this how you waste your time?"
Wenger also yelled on the sidelines: "Get the hell back! You will get your own position!"
But unfortunately, the Arsenal players were so excited that they could no longer control their emotions.
In the following games, they became more and more impatient.
Finally, in the 86th minute, Lazio's Falcao scored twice!
The single game score was Lazio 4:2, the total score was 5:3!
It was like boxers who were exchanging fierce exchanges before. One of them punched the other person in the face, so the other person fell to the ground and never got up again...
The fierce confrontation ended suddenly.
Everything is at peace.
Wenger lowered his head in pain.
The Arsenal players, who had been excited before, stood on the court blankly, looking at the football in the goal with some disbelief.
Huge cheers rang out over the Olympic Stadium in Rome.
Lazio wins for sure!
※※※
Being two goals behind and with less than ten minutes left, it is difficult to score two goals in a row.
Arsenal are not gods, and they are facing the team with the best ball control ability in Europe.
But when they want to defend, they just need to control the ball.
Once the football falls at their feet and is passed back and forth by them, it will be difficult for Arsenal to score goals...
※※※
Wenger thought Lazio would start to control the ball after establishing a two-goal lead.
But the winning streak has decided to use this game to test how much pressure Lazio's attacking power can withstand in such a crucial game.
How could it be changed midway?
So when the game restarted, Lazio continued to attack!
This is completely the rhythm of killing everyone!
Arsenal was caught off guard and seemed ill-prepared for this. In addition, after falling behind by two goals, their morale dropped to the bottom. The next few minutes were simply torture for them. Everyone's mind was not on the game...
In the 89th minute, just three minutes later, they lost the ball again!
"Cazorla!! Cazorla, who came on as a substitute in the second half, sealed the victory for Lazio! The total score was 6:3! Lazio advanced to the semi-finals! They created the best result in the Champions League in the history of the club! The semi-finals! Lazio built
The team has reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for the first time! After they were eliminated by Bayern Munich on penalties in the quarter-finals of last season. Just one year later, they came back and went one step further!"
The Italian commentator roared excitedly.
Although the game is not over yet, the Rome Olympic Stadium has become a sea of joy. No one believes that Lazio will lose this game. Arsenal can still advance. When injury time is about to come, Arsenal
Three goals behind... Even if God possessed him, it would be impossible!
Yes, after only a year, Lazio made a comeback and came back with a bang!

Apart from this sentence, I can't say anything else!
