[Football] Crown of Thorns

The visiting team's dressing room at the Emirates Stadium.

Gama walked into the bathroom immediately after entering the locker room. After taking a combat shower, he came out wearing a bath towel and wiping his hair with a towel in his hand. When he came out, he saw the slightly dull expressions of his teammates.

Thinking about it, who would have thought that their luck would be so bad today, and they would injure two generals in a row within 10 minutes. Look, this is Europe. In fact, many professional players are very superstitious. Some people firmly believe that a certain foot will step on the court before the game will bring good luck, and some people will think that only wearing a certain color of socks will bring good luck... Not only the players, but also many coaches are superstitious, for example, a certain coach's blue sweater...

Today, Dortmund's luck is obviously bad, which also affects the confidence of the whole team.

Gama, who usually has the best relationship with Sven and Mario, glanced at captain Kyle. Just when he was about to go over to say a few words, coach Klopp opened the door with a tactical board and walked in.

"Let me talk about the tactics in the second half..."

Having said that, he first talked about the team's problems in the first half, and then explained in detail the team's tactical arrangements in the second half. When he finished speaking, he kept listening carefully Gama, who was listening to the coach, felt the gaze of the gentleman sweep over his face.

"...Finally, I want to emphasize that I must pay attention to offense in the second half. I want to win the game..."

When Klopp finished speaking these words, he glanced at Gama with a calm expression, and he waved to Gama when he walked to the door.

Gama walked over, Klopp put his arms around his shoulders, and whispered in his ear, "Attack! Hiko, attack! Do you understand?"

"……clear!"

The coach's words made Gama pause for a second before nodding.

Klopp, who walked out of the locker room, sighed.

"what happened?"

Buvac, who took the tactical board from his hand, gave him a strange look.

"I always feel that Hiko's offensive ability has been stimulated this season, but sometimes he..." Klopp hesitated and shook his head at this point, as if he was asking a question or talking to himself, "professional If the players don't have the desire to win..."

Buvac, who could barely hear him whisper, looked sideways at his old buddy, "Shiko's doing well."

"Yeah, he's doing really well..."

Klopp sighed, shook his head and walked out of the passage.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Gama picked up his speed at the beginning of the game. After getting the ball, he quickly dribbled past the opponent and hit the opponent's penalty area.

It was the black brother Alexander Song who stood in front of him again.

Gama stopped, glanced at the nearby figures from the corner of his eye, swayed his body slightly and poked the ball with his left foot, the football flew out from between the opponent's legs, he stepped forward and pushed the opponent with his shoulder, The strong Alexander Song was hit by Gama and took a step back. The ball passed by Gama had already landed at Lewandowski's feet.

Arkota stepped forward to intercept, Lewandowski did not hesitate, knocked the ball on the outside of his foot and passed the ball back to Gama's feet.

Gama broke through with the ball. He passed Koscielny who rushed to help defend, and immediately kicked the goal the moment he broke into the left side of the penalty area.

It was a direct shot from a small angle. Szesny, who was slowed down by Gama's movement, threw himself in the right direction but failed to stop the football from rushing into the ball.

In the 49th minute of the second half, Dortmund's Gama scored a goal.

0 to 1, the Hornets lead.

Jia Ma, who was embraced by the rushing teammates, felt someone touching his head, someone pinching his face, and someone even hitting his chest...

"I rely on!"

After being molested by his teammates, Jia Ma glared fiercely at those bastards who touched and ran away.

"Tsk tsk, don't they say that our players are exposed to the wind, rain and sun all day long, making our skin rough, but that boy Xiko's face is smooth~~"

"...I saw that he uses skin care products!"

"I think you are free."

"... Hey, he's staring at us."

"By the way, may I ask again before the game resumes?"

"what?"

"Who touched Xiko's face?"

"........."

"I understand!"

Feeling the vicious gaze of someone behind him, Kyle shook his head muttering. He felt that it was very reasonable for Jia Ma to want to punish these bastards after returning from this game. Owe!

"It's time to kick off!"

Gama, who was still there ready to kill everything with his eyes, heard someone speaking to him.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw the referee Gehrman standing one meter away from him.

Seeing Jia Ma looking over, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "Competition!"

Uh, by the way, Arsenal are kicking off from the center circle.

Gama shrank his neck and ran towards the middle circle at a high speed.

After the re-kick-off, the Arsenal team with the possession of the ball attacked with all their strength. The black brother Alexander Song, who had faced Gama a few times, performed extremely well with the ball from the left. With a precise cross, he sent the ball directly to about eight meters in front of Dortmund's penalty area. Van Persie, who rushed out from the defensive line, jumped directly to hit the goal with a header.

A powerful header directly scored a goal.

1 to 1, Arsenal pulled back the score.

'Robin's Song' sounded in the auditorium.

Van Persie put his hands to his ears and made a celebratory gesture of listening, and his reaction made the Robin song in the stadium even louder.

"nice!"

Gama muttered.

The performance of his Bumblebee in the past year and a half is not bad, but it has not been exchanged for Bumblebee fans to write songs for him, so that Kyle, Mario and others in the team can often hear fans They sang cheering songs with their names on them.

It's not that he didn't use singing to cheer him up, but he really hasn't enjoyed such treatment for writing songs.

A little envious of the Dutchman.

Gama bit his finger and ran back to the middle circle.

The opponent is celebrating, and 1 minute has passed. Damn it, why didn't the referee mention them!

Jia Ma, who felt a little sour in his heart, groaned twice, and decided to give the Gunners another look - even if it is your home stadium, let me come to the scene, hum!

The narrow-minded Jia Ma happily made a decision.

The two sides returned to a tie and the game continued.

Dortmund kicked off and launched an attack. Gama, who received a pass from his teammate, squinted his eyes and looked at the goal on the other side, launching an offensive.

Ugh, mistake! ! !

Gama covered his face—why his pass would fall to the opponent's feet, could it really be the reason why the opponent was too fast.

Walcott, nicknamed the Tiger, swung his arms and rushed... bang bang~~ The little tiger fell to the ground and rolled around a few times before stopping.

Fans booed in the stadium.

The referee ran over and held up a bright topaz card - in the 53rd minute of the second half, Dortmund's Schmelzer fouled Walcott and was shown a yellow card by the referee.

Schmelzer spread his arms out in disbelief.

Captain Kyle justified himself with the referee, then turned around and dragged the referee away.

Jia Ma put his fist to his lips and snickered twice.

Such an obvious foul, are you lame as the referee?

The two sides are attacking back and forth, sometimes here and sometimes there, and the fans watching this struggle in their hearts.

"...Leitner passed the ball, hey!! Lewandowski shot from a small angle on the right side of the penalty area!!!"

"Phew, this ball was higher than the crossbar, and it didn't go in..."

"From the beginning of the second half, when Dortmund broke the deadlock with a goal, the game looked a lot better."

"That's not what I said, but it is true that after scoring a goal, the offensive awareness of both sides will be strengthened..."

"... Just now we talked about a player with balanced feet. I used the intermission to check a piece of information... Ah look at this, opportunity, Arsenal's opportunity, Ramsey's direct pass, Gervinho single-handedly, single-handedly It's..."

"It's a pity, Gervinho has already broken into the right side of the penalty area and passed Dortmund goalkeeper Weidenfeller, but was rushed by the opponent's defensive general Hummels and successfully cleared..."

Weidenfeller wiped the sweat from his forehead, and patted Hummels on the back thankfully.

Serving, he observed the positions of his teammates and then passed the ball to Santana.

After running a few steps with the ball, Santana saw that he could not break through the opponent's defense, and then passed the ball back to captain Kyle.

When Kyle saw the opposing player running over, he made a fake move and passed the ball. As a result, he fell to the ground inexplicably when the ball was passed.

Uh, it's not inexplicable but his leg twitched.

The coach Klopp, who was already speechless about the inexplicable injury of one of the players in this game, clapped his forehead, "Substitution."

Jia Ma, who ran over to help Kyle stretch his legs, was also speechless, "Captain..."

Kyle sighed, "Come on!"

In the 64th minute of the second half, Dortmund applied for a substitution for the third time. Captain No. 18 Kyle went off and No. [-] Barrios was replaced.

"...This game, Dortmund's luck, is really bad!!!"

Gama: ==

The game started again, and Walcott shot wide of the post after a pass from Ramsey of Arsenal.

Arsenal coach Wenger applied for a substitution from the sidelines, and Benayoun replaced Gervinho.

Benayoun, who had just debuted, received a yellow card for a foul on Gama.

Gama: Hehe...

Just after 1 minute, Ramsey fouled Gama again and received a yellow card.

Gama: I’m so beep beep~

In the 75th minute of the second half, Arsenal again applied for a substitution.

Jolu and Diaby replaced Koscielny and Walcott respectively.

After this substitution, Arsenal got an excellent chance, a corner kick.

I saw Arteta, who was standing in the corner flag area ready to take a corner kick, raised his right arm, and then he took a corner kick. The corner kick went directly to the point in front of the penalty area. Later, Van Persie scored a goal directly from a far point.

2 to 1, Arsenal overtook the score.

And this is also the Gunners captain Van Persie's 6th goal in the last 10 games.

At this time, the singing sounded again in the Emirates Stadium.

With a smile on Van Persie's face, he waved his hands and celebrated with the fans.

Gama licked his lips, muttering 'calm down' to himself, and then he reached out for the ball.

Time passed slowly, although Gama passed the ball successfully several times, but the defensive Arsenal made Dortmund's several attacks return without attack.

hateful!

Gama took a breath and pushed his right hand down and out, signaling his teammates to go sideways and come back.

There was already a 3-minute stoppage time sign on the sidelines. Gama looked up at the time and asked for the ball again.

Perhaps Gama's efforts finally paid off, this time the Gunners were careless, and Walcott made a mistake in the dribble on the right, and was grabbed by the rushing Lewandowski Passing back, Gama moved forward, knocked the ball past the opponent's through ball, and the ball flew to Lewandowski's feet. After receiving the ball, Lewandowski did not hesitate and took a left foot With a twitch of his right foot, the football flew straight into the Gunners' goal.

In the 92nd minute of the second half, Dortmund equalized in stoppage time.

In this campaign, Arsenal at home drew 2-2 with Borussia Dortmund. Gunners captain Van Persie scored twice and won the best of the game.

In another match in the same group, Marseille lost 0 to 1 at home to Olympiacos. Here, Dortmund successfully secured the top spot in the group and advanced to the next knockout round based on the group results.
