Chapter 669 Istanbul only favors Liverpool!
Chapter 669 Istanbul only favors Liverpool!
Istanbul, Turkey.
Liverpool once staged the famous “Istanbul Night” here. After falling behind AC Milan 0-3 in the first half, they scored three consecutive goals in 6 minutes in the second half, and finally completed the comeback, creating the famous Istanbul Night.
Walking on the road to the Sarajoglu Stadium, Arsenal fans were a little uneasy.
Although Le Kai was absent alone, they always felt extremely uneasy.
Arsenal fans who are familiar with the presence of Lucky, it is difficult to find that sense of security in the absence of Lucky.
Just like the last round of the Premier League game, Arsenal obviously played at home, but played extremely passively.
It’s not that he didn’t play well.
But it always feels weird!
Wilshere’s ability is good, but not enough to admit enough heavy responsibilities, let alone think that Lucky has that kind of absolute dominance.
For this Arsenal team, Lucky is the backbone.
September 15th, Sala Joglu Stadium.
Arsenal team arrives at the arena.
They walked into the field in silence and started preparing for the game.
After warm-up and tactical arrangements, the players of the two teams stood in the player channel.
Wilshere stood at the captain’s position in the front row, with the captain’s armband tied on his arm.
This is the second time he has worn the captain’s armband this season.
Wilshere is now the second captain of Arsenal. In the absence of Lucky, he needs to take on the important task of leading the team to victory.
However, Wilshere felt too much pressure.
I didn’t know this when I followed Lucy’s **** before, but the moment I stood here, Wilshere’s body was a little stiff.
But he can’t show any stiffness.
The teammates behind him are watching him.
“Take it easy, Jack!”
Suddenly, the goalkeeper Martinez behind him patted his shoulder, and Wilshere’s whole body froze.
“Can you see it?”
Martinez nodded silently.
Wilshere smiled wryly to himself, so why did he think of becoming the captain in the past, and why is this job so tiring.
But no matter how tired you are, you have to hold on.
“Ready to play!”
said the referee in front.
Wilshere took a deep breath, followed Lucy’s example, and roared.
“Arsen~ Na!”
Because of too much pressure, the word ‘森’ in the middle is a little broken.
The entire player tunnel was silent, and everyone looked at Wilshere in astonishment.
The players on Fenerbahce’s side couldn’t help laughing out loud.
Wilshere’s whole face was as red as a monkey’s butt.
At this moment, he wanted to find a dog hole to get into.
What a shame!
In the end, Wilshere had to bite the bullet and walk onto the court.
Wilshere felt extremely stiff in the process of taking pictures, guessing sides, shaking hands and other links.
Mourinho also saw the problem, and couldn’t help shouting; “Jack, relax, you are like a wooden man now.”
Wilshere turned his head and nodded towards Mourinho.
In this regard, Mourinho sighed; “Jack’s state is not right!”
Arteta shook his head and smiled wryly; “There is too much pressure. After being tied in the last round, Jack blamed himself and felt that he failed to lead the team to victory. He still has high demands on himself.”
“Sometimes, it’s not a good thing!”
“Yes!”
Both starting lineups:
Fenerbahce (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Demirel.
Defenders: Ozbayrakli, Kjaer, Skrtel, Kaldrim.
Midfielders: Potuk, Topal, De Susa.
Forwards: Lens, Sow, Volkan.
Arsenal (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Monreal.
Midfielders: Xhaka, Wilshere, Elneny.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Lukaku, Mane.
“Here is the first round of Group A of the Europa League, Fenerbahce VS Arsenal!”
“After the national match day, many Arsenal players fell into injuries, the main goalkeeper Cech, Kanter, Ramsey, etc., which also made the strength of Arsenal’s lineup in an extremely unstable situation. The key point is that Lucky, as the captain, has not finished the national team game, and he will return to Arsenal tomorrow, which also means that we will not be able to see Lucky in this game.”
“Mourinho tried his best to strengthen the defensive ability of the midfield, but can Arsenal’s midfield combination withstand the pressure, especially Xhaka, this is his first chance to start, and he can show enough performance ?”
“As for Fenerbahce, they played with all the main players, obviously to win the game at home!”
“Fenerbahce’s head coach Ed Vokat also said that they have no hope of defeating Arsenal. Whether Ed Vokat can achieve his wish and whether Fenerbahçe can defeat the mighty Arsenal is good! The referee blows the whistle Yin, the game has officially begun!”
“Fenerbahce took the lead to kick off, Sou kicked off, Fenerbahce passed back, Topal made a long pass directly to Lens, Lens shot!! Lying”
The commentator shouted in amazement; “The ball went in?”
The ball is bouncing in Arsenal’s goal.
The game started less than a minute ago, did Arsenal concede a goal?
The whole arena was silent.
Soon, there was a tsunami of cheers at the scene, and the Fenerbahçe fans went crazy with joy.
They even scored a goal!
In less than 1 minute, a goal was scored!
As the goal scorer, Lens ran all over the field excitedly.
“Let’s take a look at the ball again. Fenerbahce midfielder Topal made a long pass, Lens volleyed directly, and the ball went straight to the dead corner! This is a fairy ball!”
The commentator said with emotion.
The coaches on both sides also looked confused.
Fenerbahce’s head coach, after a short period of consternation, began to celebrate in ecstasy.
They have arranged sneak attack tactics, and when they want to leave Arsenal when they are out of form at the beginning, they will try a wave.
But I didn’t expect that this trial directly led to a goal.
Arsenal, on the other hand, were completely confused.
Mourinho’s eyes widened even more, his mouth was tightly pursed, his eyes filled with anger and murderous intent.
What kind of kick is this!
Was scored by the opponent so easily?
During the game, the Arsenal players also looked at each other in blank dismay. This conceded goal was something they did not expect at all.
But the next scene made them even more confused.
After the game restarted, Fenerba cut off the striker, everyone joined the defense, and a large number of people gathered in the penalty area.
These guys are starting to drive the bus!
Score a goal and start driving the bus!
Although it looks ugly, this is definitely the most effective way for a weak team to beat a strong team.
And they get a leading goal, as long as they don’t lose the ball, they can win the game!
The angry gunmen began to bombard Fenerbahce wildly.
But little effect.
Fenerbahce survived the first half abruptly.
In the second half, they took the lead in making substitutions, all of which were players on the defensive end, and then continued to place the bus.
Arsenal has nothing to do with this tortoise shell named Fenerbahce.
No matter how they seduce, the other party will not leave the restricted area.
The tortoise shrinks its head, and it will not stand up if it is killed!
For a full 90 minutes, Arsenal played so aggrievedly.
And Fenerbahce received six yellow cards in 90 minutes.
Foul tactics, bus tactics, home court advantage, fairy ball and other factors they all use are called a familiarity.
With this fairy ball, Fenerbahce won Arsenal in a daze.
The Fenerbahçe commentator at the scene was roaring even more.
“The game is over! We have won against the mighty Arsenal. Fenerbahce’s warriors played an amazing game. They tenaciously won the game!”
At the end of the whole game, the expressions of Arsenal players and coach Mourinho were ugly.
In fact, it is not that they have no chance to win the game, but this game obviously has the factor of the home whistle, and many penalties are avoided. As a result, Arsenal missed many opportunities and failed to equalize the score.
And this also ushered in Arsenal’s first defeat of the season!
That night, the London Sports News published the news.
“Arsenal lost the Europa League opener! ”
“Istanbul only favors Liverpool!” ”
《The fairy ball defeated Arsenal! ”
“The Gunners’ first defeat of the season! ”
《Gun fans are calling for the return of Kai! ”
Similar reports emerged one after another, with one draw and one loss in two consecutive games, which made Arsenal fans and players full of anxiety.
The third watch is here!
