Football's hand covers the sky

Chapter 353 Second Half

Arsenal's continuous attack created good chances, but Courtois' outstanding performance failed to achieve the desired result.

Then Chelsea launched a counterattack, but the first wave of Chelsea's counterattack was to get a yellow card. The boos of Arsenal fans still had an impact on Fabregas.

No.30 minutes, Fabregas rushed to the front of Arsenal's penalty area, Cazorla retreated to intercept, Fabregas rushed in, but suddenly fell to the ground when Fabregas entered the penalty area.

"Flopping" Arsenal fans did not forget to boo Cesc Fabregas while shouting.

But this time the Arsenal fans got their wish, the referee decided that Fabregas dived and took out the first yellow card of the game.

Huge cheers and applause erupted from the stands, but soon turned into boos.

For this yellow card, Mourinho on the sidelines was somewhat dissatisfied. The madman went directly to the fourth official, and Wenger naturally couldn't be indifferent to this.

Arsene Wenger and Mourinho had another quarrel, but they were quickly pulled away by the coaches of both sides. The game restarted on the pitch, and Arsenal launched an offensive again.

It's just that this time Arsenal didn't complete the shot, Sanchez's cross was cleared by Terry, the offense and defense switched, and Chelsea scored Arsenal's hinterland again.

Fabregas did not flop this time, but gave Hazard a good pass behind the ball. The Belgian relied on his speed to pass Chambers to complete the cross.

It's a pity that Chelsea did not have an orthodox center forward in this game. Hazard's cross was cleared by Koscielny, and the ball returned to Arsenal.

It was Sanchez again. This time Sanchez completed a wonderful attack. He broke through Azpilicueta with the ball and then made a diagonal pass. Cazorla inserted into the penalty area at high speed and hit the post with a shovel. Arsenal missed the chance to score again.

No.401 minutes, Oliver once again became the protagonist on the field, Arsenal once again attacked the front of Chelsea's penalty area, Chamberlain pushed across the middle, and Ramsey kicked a long shot from the top of the arc.

"Shot~~~Penalty~~~This is definitely a penalty." Ramsey's long-range shot hit Cahill's arm. Although Cahill did not raise his hand obviously, he did raise his hand.

"No ~ ~ ~ no penalty ~ ~ ~ the referee did not award a penalty" Oliver felt that Cahill was not intentional.

"Hush~~~" Arsenal fans booed the referee again. At the same time, Wenger approached the fourth official. Naturally, Mourinho couldn't show weakness when he saw this.

After Chelsea escaped from the dead, they immediately returned a shot to Arsenal. The cooperation between the two Brazilians, and the cooperation between Willian and Oscar hit the wall continuously.

William passed the ball from outside the restricted area to Oscar, who crossed the restricted area line with the ball and passed it back. William immediately kicked up the ball after receiving the pass, and the ball went straight to the dead corner.

"Li~~~" Li Shou also made a save when William shot, and the ball was blocked by Li Shou again outside the goal line.

Li Shou didn't give Chelsea a chance for the next corner kick. He directly took the ball off the Chelsea captain's header, and then Arsenal launched a fast break.

Cazorla made a long pass to Giroud, and the French center headed the ball. Sanchez rushed into the penalty area and shot the ball directly to Courtois.

When it was Chelsea's fast break, Courtois threw the ball to Ivanovic, who found Matic with a direct pass, and Matic passed another kick to Ramirez. The Brazilian immediately took a long shot after receiving the pass.

Ramirez failed to suppress this shot, and the ball flew directly to the stands. This was also the last shot of the first half. Although the score was still 0:0, these super fast-paced offense and defense ignited the fans of both sides. This was also the most exciting wave of offense and defense for both sides in the first half.

As far as the entire first half is concerned, the performances of Arsenal and Chelsea can only be regarded as mediocre, and even the referee is a bit overwhelming. Several controversial decisions have attracted the attention of many people.

"If there is no misjudgment, I think we are already ahead now," Wenger said after returning to the dressing room.

Coincidentally, Mourinho in the visiting team's locker room is also saying similar things.

But for the players on the field, this is useless. Although people are subjective, nothing can be changed subjectively. The referee is a part of the game, and it is impossible to separate it.

15 minutes may be a long time for the fans, but it is just an instant for the players, so players from both sides returned to the court soon.

In terms of lineup, Arsenal has not changed anything, but Chelsea has made adjustments. The no-forward lineup does not seem to have any effect, so Mourinho replaced Oscar with Drogba.

"Chelsea made adjustments" Few games are adjusted at half-time, but this game was too important for Chelsea.

"A draw is acceptable for Arsenal, but it is absolutely unacceptable for Chelsea." With a gap of 6 points, Chelsea can only win Arsenal if they want to complete the overtake, reducing the difference to 3 points.

This game is already the No.30 four-round league, and there are only four rounds left after the game, but Arsenal still has a make-up match to play, so Arsenal still has five games.

After the start of the game, Chelsea quickly launched an offensive. After Didier Drogba came on the field, Chelsea started to send high balls to the frontcourt. Although Drogba was old, he maintained good physical fitness and could still serve as the team's bridgehead.

Koscielny failed to win Drogba, and the Chelsea center forward passed the ball to Hazard, who moved the ball across the center to cooperate with Willian on the other side.

Hazard passed the ball to William. The Brazilian rushed into the penalty area and kicked the shot, which was blocked by Monreal. The ball hit Monreal's leg and bounced in front of Hazard.

"Shoot~~~It's too straight." Hazard took a shot, and the ball flew directly into Li Shou's arms.

Three minutes later Chelsea scored again into the Arsenal half, this time with a cross from the wing, Azpilicueta crossed under the cover of William, Fabregas rushed into the penalty area to compete for the top.

"Koscielny~~~ oh~~~ Neither of them touched the ball." Koscielny and Fabregas competed for the pass, but neither of them touched the ball but they collided together.

The game was interrupted. Under the signal of the referee, the team doctors of both sides rushed in together, and then the two came down to the sidelines for treatment with the support of the team doctors.

Both sides lost one player at the same time, but this situation did not last long. Although both Koscielny and Fabregas were injured, the injuries were not serious, and they returned to the court soon after a short treatment.

When Cesc Fabregas returned to the pitch, boos once again sounded from the stands at the Emirates Stadium.

Seriously, it's too much, but that's football.
