Football's hand covers the sky

Chapter 379 The target of public criticism: Li Shou

Arsenal lineup:

Goalkeeper: Li Shou

Defenders: Monreal, Koscielny, Mertesacker, Bellerin

Midfielders: Coquelin, Ramsey, Cazorla

Forwards: Griezmann, Giroud, Sanchez

This game is equally important for Sanchez. In the three years in Barcelona, ​​Sanchez has been wandering between the main force and the substitute, and Barcelona has never entered the Champions League final in these three years.

But what makes Sanchez even more uncomfortable is that Barcelona entered the final immediately after he left. Fortunately, Arsenal was also strong and entered the final, so this game is Sanchez's opportunity, and it is Sanchez's opportunity to prove himself to Barcelona.

Barcelona lineup:

Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen

Defenders: Alba, Mascherano, Pique, Alves

Midfielders: Busquets, Rakitic, Iniesta

Forwards: Neymar, Suarez, Messi

Before the game, most of the media were hyping that Messi, the strongest spear, was competing with Li Shou, the strongest shield, but no one knew that someone was more eager to fight Li Shou than Messi.

Barcelona goalkeeper Ter Stegen, the German goalkeeper is known as the "little lion". Like Li Shou, he was born in 92. He is the best goalkeeper of the new generation of Germany.

But this talented goalkeeper has been compared with Li Shou since last summer. In fact, no matter what happened to Li Shou, it was all media hype.

Last summer, Barcelona was Li Shou's pursuit, and they also took a fancy to Ter Stegen, but according to the media, the reason why Barcelona bought Ter Stegen was because Li Shou rejected Barcelona.

This made Ter Stegen very upset. After all, geniuses are proud, and Ter Stegen was not happy in Barcelona this season, because he can only start in the cup, and the league starter has always been played by Bravo.

So this final is an opportunity for Ter Stegen to prove himself. He wants to tell everyone through this game that he is no worse than Li Shou.

The short opening performance ended, and the players from both sides officially appeared on the stage. With the players from both sides on the stage, this UEFA Champions League final, which attracted the attention of the world, is about to begin.

"The captains of both sides started to guess coins, and the game is about to start." Zhan Jun and Zhang directed the voices of the old partners to pass through the Internet and TV to the ears of all domestic fans.

"To be honest, the referee seems to be a bit unfavorable to Arsenal." In the middle of guessing coins, Director Zhang popularized another little knowledge.

That is about the final referee Kagil, the referee from Turkey is known as the "England Nemesis", regardless of the national team, the Champions League or the Europa League, his penalties are very unfriendly to the English team.

In the Champions League, Chelsea captain Terry was sent off and Barcelona was sent off a penalty. In the Club World Cup final, Cahill was sent off. Manchester United sent off Nani in the match against Real Madrid. In the Europa League, Balotelli, who was still playing for Manchester City, was sent off. Even Arsenal was no exception, and the opponent at the time was Barcelona.

"Damn it!" After listening to Zhang's guidance, almost all the domestic fans couldn't help but burst out, and at the same time they were worried about Arsenal.

But for the fans, they can't do anything, not to mention the fans, even the Arsenal players can't do it. The referee is arranged by UEFA, there is no one to dictate, and the game will start soon.

Players from both sides have already stood in their respective positions. Barcelona, ​​which has the right to start the ball, decisively launched an attack. Suarez passed the ball to Rakitic.

The midfielder who only joined last summer told everyone with his wonderful performance that he has the ability to replace the aging Harvey, although he is not the same type of player as Harvey.

Rakitic passed a pass back to Busquets, and then Busquets made a diagonal pass. The ball came to the feet of Brazilian winger Neymar, and the Brazilian immediately rushed into Arsenal's hinterland with the ball.

Coquelin immediately filled his position, and then offered Neymar to Bellerin. Faced with the offer from the two, Neymar didn't seem to want to pass the ball.

Neymar is known as the third person under Messi and Ronaldo, and he is the player most likely to break the rule of Messi and Ronaldo, but unfortunately, he has lost this opportunity since he joined Barcelona.

Of course, Neymar doesn't feel that, as Brazil's most talented player in recent years, Neymar is full of confidence in himself, but the reality has given Neymar a blow.

Now Li Shou is the third player under Messi and Ronaldo. Li Shou is the most likely player to break the rule of Messi and Ronaldo, and Li Shou is only one game away from this step.

Neymar is definitely unwilling to accept this situation. In Neymar's mind, the only person who can break the rule of Messi and Ronaldo is himself, and this game is Neymar's best opportunity to prove.

The Brazilian's foot skills are indeed excellent. Even in the face of double teams, he still firmly controls the ball at his feet, but this is only one aspect.

"Bellerin and Coquelin seem to be a little reluctant to let go." Although the players' nervousness calmed down a little with the help of Li Shou, after the game really started, the players had problems again, especially the young and inexperienced players like Bellerin and Coquelin.

Bellerin has just turned 20 years old. Although Coquelin is 24 years old and has performed very well in the previous games, after all, he is really the main player for Arsenal this season.

"It's passed~~~ Neymar actually broke through the double-teaming of Bellerin and Coquelin." Neymar's personal ability is really nothing to say. If he hadn't joined Barcelona, ​​he might really threaten Messi and Ronaldo.

It's a pity that he made the worst choice at the most critical age. Just like this attack, after breaking through Bellerin and Coquelin, Neymar did not directly rush into the Arsenal penalty area, but chose to kick directly on the penalty area line.

Although Koscielny had come to make up for the first time under Li Shou's command, Neymar had room to enter the penalty area and shoot, but he chose to kick directly on the penalty area line.

Such a shot certainly cannot threaten the goal guarded by Li Shou, but Li Shou did not choose to block it. In Li Shou's eyes, Neymar is obviously not comparable to Messi.

For a tactical corner kick, Iniesta passed the ball to Neymar. The Brazilian came to change direction and sent a cross. Suarezka competed for the top position, but the ball finally flew out of Arsenal's penalty area.

Li Shou's clearance was right in front of Suarez. Li Shou punched the ball out, but Barcelona's attack was not over yet. Alveska headed the ball to Mascherano who had withdrawn from the penalty area.

Argentina received the pass and decisively turned around and took a long shot. Unfortunately, he failed to hold it down. The ball flew directly to the stands, and the first wave of Barcelona's attack ended.
