Chapter 465 Goodbye Champions League
Wenger, who hadn't announced his squad before, suddenly announced He Xu's starting line-up the day before the game. This boosted the morale of the Arsenal players and at the same time put a lot of psychological burden on the Barcelona players, especially Barcelona defender Gerard Pique, who was played by He Xu many times in the direct dialogue of the national derby.

Some people are happy and some are worried. While Pique is nervous, there are also people who are looking forward to this match with great excitement, such as their midfielder Liang Zhao.It seems that Liang Zhao and He Xu haven't faced each other head-to-head in the Champions League for a long time. Although they are best brothers, an occasional head-to-head confrontation seems to be a good way to enhance their relationship.

When the team doctor told He Xu's ankle in surprise that he could play, He Xu still decided to be responsible for his future, so he told Wenger that he only had half the game.While Wenger expressed his understanding and admiration, he also proposed to allow He Xu to play in the second half, but He Xu refused. He felt that as the captain, he should be at the forefront at critical times and play his best when the pressure is greatest. effect.Wenger agreed...

When he stood side by side with Liang Zhao, who was still in astonishment, at the entrance of the player tunnel, Liang Zhao spoke first: "Are your injuries really healed?" The two spoke Chinese, and the surrounding teammates could only look at each other He looked at them both in confusion.

He Xu gritted his teeth, "Of course, if it's not completely fine? Do you think I can play? But then again, why did you become the captain? Even if Iniesta didn't play, there is still Messi With Busquets?"

Liang Zhao smiled, "In the latest captain election, I became Barcelona's vice-captain. Now Andres has a truce, but I am ranked ahead of Leo and Sergio. Don't move." Topic, your injury has healed, right? Then I will fight you without reservation! Wait to accept my attack!"

He Xu said with a bit of arrogance: "I will not accept your attack! Don't forget, I am a striker. Maybe your words are more suitable for Chen Boyan, right?" The two said, side by side Lead the team onto the field.

Almost as soon as He Xu made his appearance, he was cheered by the fans at the scene. Their captain returned from injury at a critical moment!Once again they are invincible Gunners, how about Barcelona?We can fight you too.

He Xu was not the only one who made a comeback. Leroy Fair and Ronaldinho both made their comebacks in time. Arsenal were finally able to play with a lineup that was closer to the main players.In order to deal with the small and fast Barcelona frontcourt, Wenger deliberately replaced De Vrij, Chen Boyan and Godin, who is very familiar with Barcelona.Godin used to play for Atletico Madrid, and he has been dealing with Barcelona players for a long time.

For Barcelona, ​​​​Guardiola obviously did not back down. He also formed a three-back formation, and there were still three forwards.In front of Ter Stegen, there is only Pique alone, and the full-backs on both sides are Alves and Jordi Alba. These two players are also players who can't stop and like to attack. On the left and right of the midfield are Thiago Alcantara and his younger brother Rafinha. Naturally, the new vice captain Liang Zhao is in the midfielder position.The three forwards are Neymar, Pedro and Messi.It has to be said that although Xavi and Puyol, the two banner players, have hung up their boots and retired, Barcelona's strength does not seem to be affected.

When the team entered the field, Ronaldinho also deliberately hugged his good brother Messi warmly. Ronaldinho's teammate in Barcelona is now the only one left.Of course, he has not forgotten his national team brother Neymar.

He Xu looked at Ronaldinho, and was glad that he was still able to fight with this green elf in the same team at the end of his career.

Amidst the cheers of the Gunners fans, He Xu and Garrincha kicked the ball away. It seems that their condition is still very good. Today, Massimo Charlie was put in the position of the midfielder, but his position Overall, he is still a bit late, more like a central midfielder, with a sense of both offense and defense.Perhaps Wenger also knew that he needed Massimo Charlie to keep Liang Zhao in check, and he couldn't do without him if he wanted to punch Busquets.

Lars Bender and Leroy Fair, the bigger task in this game is to guard the Alcantara brothers on the wing. These two guys are not so easy to deal with.

After He Xu passed the ball to Garrincha, he ran forward by himself. He knew that his time was limited and his opponent was strong, so he couldn't waste a second!Garrincha didn't even pass the ball back to Massimo. After catching the ball, he pulled it horizontally, avoided Liang Zhao's attack, and broke forward. Seeing that there was a space around He Xu, Garrincha's The ball is passed immediately.The fans at the scene became excited after the experience. He Xu has such magic power. As long as he takes the ball, the fans will be very excited. This makes Wenger feel very strange, with the talent of atmosphere.

He Xu, who received the ball, was also a little surprised. How did I get to such a front position in one fell swoop?Is there only one Pique left in front of you?Hey handsome guy, how is your wife?I think she must be fine, because you don't seem to be fine.

He Xu always suspected that Pique must be pulled by the South American queen to sing every night, otherwise how could his competitive status drop so quickly after getting married?There must be a direct connection!

Pique looked at He Xu nervously. He Xu didn't use too much force, but passed the ball to Royce who was in a good position.The moment Royce took the ball, he quickly got rid of Alba's defense, and the two speed players started to rush on the side. It seems that Royce should have a greater advantage!
When he reached the bottom line, he swayed his legs and looked as if he was about to cross. Who would have thought that when Alba wanted to block him, he slammed the ball back, rubbed Alba's side, and broke into the penalty area. middle.

The crowd cheered again, and Royce's popularity is also very high. Apart from playing well, his good looks must also be an important factor.Just like at this moment, Zhang Yao and Elena who were sitting next to Tang Lintian were calling Royce's name loudly.Tang Lintian said sourly: "When Leroy was holding the ball, why didn't I see you shouting so happily?"

Before Zhang Yao could speak, Elena immediately replied: "A defensive player and an offensive player! Can these be the same? You don't understand such a simple truth? Really, you are still a professional player?!"

Royce's in-cut shot was blocked by his former club team-mate and national team-mate. Garrincha, who made a supplementary shot, knocked the ball out of bounds. The kick was too urgent and he didn't control the route of the football.

Because they are both ball-handling and attacking teams that emphasize technology, the two teams are inseparable, and the game process is very exciting, and there will always be very subtle cooperation and individual performances.

Time passed by unconsciously. He Xu, who was still worried about his own time at first, forgot about it later, and continued like previous games until the referee blew the whistle to end the first half. Only then did He Xu realize, I'm on!My time is up?its not right!My legs are still quite normal, and I don't feel any discomfort in my body!No problem, we can continue to play in the second half!That must be the case, I'll tell the coach!

It's a pity that when he happily came to Wenger's side, Wenger just waved his hand, "Stop talking! End, I'll let Mario go to warm up!" He Xu was a little surprised by Wenger's seriousness and irrefutable .

"Coach! You trust me! I'm fine, we still have a chance, I'll score in the second half! Arsene!"

Wenger suddenly looked at He Xu very sternly, "You mean, without your goal, our team would not be able to do it?"

"No! Sir, of course I don't mean that! I just feel..."

"That's not what I mean, just sit on the sidelines and rest! Don't bother me with my tactical arrangements for the second half!"

He Xu had no choice but to shut his mouth, put on a long-sleeved jersey and sat on the sidelines.He really didn't understand why Wenger didn't let him continue to play. Maybe only Wenger himself and the old Chinese doctor who helped He Xu temporarily "heal" the wound could understand.Of course, after half an hour, He Xu himself seemed to understand.

The Barcelona players felt relieved when they came back from the intermission, and the substitutions made by Arsenal, while the Arsenal players felt a little uncomfortable because of the captain's end. After all, the relationship between Bashen and He Xu There are also differences in style.

At this moment, many Arsenal fans understood that their captain hadn't recovered from his injury at all, and it was just for the team to play temporarily for half an hour.So what is he doing now?This time, the morale of the entire Arsenal army was greatly damaged. From the players to the fans, everyone was a little depressed.

Liang Zhao also thought of it. He Xu must have lied to himself before the game. Liang Zhao was a little annoyed. He was not in the best condition, and I couldn't lead my team to lead them!

But Liang Zhao is not a person who is easily depressed, what's more, his captains are watching his performance off the court. Except for Iniesta who is in rotation, Xavi and Puyol who have entered the coaching staff are all sitting on Guardiola's team. looking at myself.

There is no way I will disappoint them!With such an idea, Liang Zhao fought more and more courageously, coupled with Messi and Neymar's attacks, Arsenal could not stand it anymore.Barcelona's offensive ability is still so terrible.

In the end, between this ebb and flow, Arsenal persisted for seven or 10 minutes before finally collapsing. After Messi broke through De Vrij, he completed a two-for-one with Liang Zhao, got rid of Chen Boyan, and then lowered his left foot. Score.

Twelve minutes later, Liang Zhao sealed the victory with another long shot. The home game was 0-2. Sitting on the sidelines, He Xu felt his heart sinking. He had already seen the end of his team.

Another year of Champions League, goodbye...
