Chapter 265

In the first game, Liverpool defeated Barcelona 2:1 at home.

Alonso and Gerrard each scored a long-range shot to help Liverpool lead by two goals.

In this game, Ronaldinho was restricted to death, and his breakthrough and passing lost their power.

Fortunately, Eto'o seized an opportunity to create a penalty. He personally scored the penalty and won a key away goal for Barcelona.

However, with Liverpool's stability, going to an away game does not necessarily mean losing.

In another time and space, they also joined AC Milan in Istanbul and created the famous Istanbul miracle. After falling behind 0:3 in the first half, they just equalized the score, and finally won the penalty shootout and won the Big Ears Cup.

Now that AC Milan wants to face Arsenal, they may not have the opportunity to go to Istanbul. As for whether Liverpool can continue the historical trajectory, it depends on whether Barcelona can show off at home by then.

As the match day approached, Arsenal and AC Milan players walked out of the player tunnel.

There was light rain in the sky, and it was cold on the face.

After entering the arena, Jia Yi stepped on the turf and found that the turf was really soft today. After so many days of rain, it was already good to be able to compete.

Fortunately, the team was prepared and put on spiked sneakers.

In order to cope with the game, Arsenal also formed a 4-5-1 formation, with only Henry in front.

In this climate, try to ensure the number of midfielders in order to control the midfield and control the rhythm.

Jia Yi continued to be in the position of the front midfielder, responsible for the connection in the middle.

After picking sides, the home team kicks off first.

AC Milan's lineup is also quite unique, the Christmas tree formation.

At the top is the Danish striker Thomasson. There is no way to do that. Shevchenko was bought by Arsenal, and he is still watching the two teams play in the stands.

AC Milan also has no good forwards available.

Kaka is on the front midfielder, which has the same function as Jia Yi.

The other core player is Rui Costa. The Portuguese is still in good form this season. He and Kaka often switch positions, which is a big variable.

Of course, there is Pirlo, who is also a big threat.

In 3 minutes, Kaka suddenly took a long shot from the middle, and Mascherano didn't expect it. Fortunately, Lehmann was in good condition and flew the ball out of the baseline.

This position is also a bit far away, and its strength is a little weaker.

Rui Costa took a corner kick, Stam Taishan pressed the top in the middle, and smashed the ball into the goal.

However, when the home fans were cheering, the linesman raised the flag. The referee was going to blow his whistle to announce that the goal was valid. Seeing the action of the lineman, he immediately ran over to ask him.

Afterwards, the referee raised his hand, indicating that Stam had handballed.

This guy, too stealthy, pokes the ball into the goal with his left hand.

At that time, there were too many people in the penalty area, and it was really difficult for ordinary people to see that this lineman was a talent.

Stam also ran back with a smirk, this guy wanted to fish in troubled waters.

But it didn't work out.

Two minutes later, Jia Yi made a straight pass in the middle of the road, Henry flew in, single-handedly entered the penalty area, and scored with a low shot.

Before the Arsenal fans cheered, the linesman on the other side raised the flag, indicating that Henry was offside first and the goal was invalid.

This time, Jia Yi was a little dissatisfied. He grasped the timing of passing the ball just right, and he was not offside at all. At the other end, the veteran Maldini was dragged back, parallel to Henry.

Compared with the other line judge, this line judge is a little bit inferior.

Jia Yi ran over and said a few words to the referee, but the referee did not change the decision. At this moment, he still believed in the eyes of the line referee.

Moreover, there is no VR technology now, so there is no way to watch the playback.

This strike was unjustly killed.

Wenger also spread his hands dissatisfied on the sidelines, and he also saw that the ball was not offside.

But there is no way to change the referee's penalty, so he can only obey it.

On the other side, Ancelotti's face was full of luck.

He also saw that the ball was not offside at all.

If the referee judges that the goal is valid, then AC Milan will be in trouble, and it will be more dangerous.

Both sides were blown away a goal, it seems, is a tie.

But in fact, Arsenal are at a disadvantage. After all, their goals should be effective.

The game continued, and the Arsenal players were still unaffected.

After playing for a while, the field has become muddy, and the ground ball has become difficult to form an effective pass.

And the rain is getting heavier and heavier. It seems that the weather will not be better today.

Both sides started to hit the lob.

In 11 minutes, Thomas received a pass from Rui Costa and headed the ball a little. Kaka volleyed vigorously from outside the penalty area. The ball flew out against the crossbar, scaring Lehmann into a cold sweat.

In 13 minutes, Mascherano also made a long pass from the backcourt. Jia Yi rushed to the front of the opponent's penalty area, directly overwhelmed Gattuso and headed the ball into the penalty area. Buckle, but his subsequent shot was not powerful, and was blocked by the opponent's goalkeeper Dida.

In 19 minutes, Arsenal got a corner kick.

Fabregas took a corner kick, and Jia Yi also headed the ball from the middle. Dida once again seemed to have a divine help, like a conditioned reflex, and flew the ball over the crossbar.

Jia Yiyi slapped his forehead, this is a pity.

He hit the top very powerfully, but he couldn't stop the opponent's goalkeeper from playing well.

After 20 minutes, both sides slowed down.

Playing until the end of April, it is obvious how much physical reserve everyone still has at this moment.

The only ones who can run actively are Jia Yi, Mascherano, Gattuso, and the others are slowing down.

At this time, it is a dangerous period.

Sure enough, at 24 minutes, Jia Yi suddenly accelerated in the middle. After he adapted to the field, his dribbling rhythm improved. After shaking Rui Costa and Gattuso away, he directly kicked Mas Celano.

Brother Xiao Ma rushed up and shot a burst, the ball went straight into the dead corner, 0:1, Arsenal took the lead!
Mascherano took off his jersey, then roared and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate the goal.

His role has always been a defensive image, but now, he broke the deadlock at a critical moment.

This earth-shattering long-range shot is completely standard in the world wave.

Thousands of Arsenal fans in the stands also jumped up, raising their arms and shouting.

The team still did not disappoint them, and scored first in the away game.

With this goal, Arsenal's hope of advancing to the final is very high.

Wenger also stood up and applauded vigorously. He was very satisfied with this goal.

It is a great advantage to go first and then host, but Arsenal seized the opportunity and scored a goal first, which is very good for the team's subsequent tactical execution.

I was worried that this rainy day would be difficult, but now, I am afraid that it will become AC Milan.

Jia Yi ran up, put his arms around Mascherano's neck, and celebrated with him.

With this pass, he deceived his opponent.

Several AC Milan players were paying attention to Henry's running position, but they did not expect that Jia Yi would choose to hit Mascherano horizontally to complete the shot.

Therefore, at critical times, this kind of whim is still very useful.

Arsenal players gathered around to celebrate the goal together.

Mascherano can now be compared with Vieira. In the past, Vieira often staged this kind of long-range shots from the back row.

Now, Mascherano has also completed this role-playing.

Mascherano's age is almost 21 years old. This is really Arsenal's main midfielder for the next 10 years without worrying about it.
