Chapter 710: Sinners
In the 73rd minute, Manchester City completed a wave of attacks, Adam Johnson on the left broke through and his cross was cleared by Arsenal defenders, and the ball came to the right side to squeeze Gibson to control the ball and then passed into the box again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
However, this time it was not a high possession, with Aguero's height, he couldn't get a header in the Arsenal penalty area, so here it was a low pass, and Aguero was also smart enough to drop two steps back.
Vermaelen followed first, but could not stop Aguero's shot, leaning back, and then cleverly turning and dunking, not giving the defender any time to react.
Sergio Aguero's series of moves were indeed spectacular, but unfortunately, Szczesny defended Arsenal's goal with an even more brilliant world-class save.
It was also City's best chance since the start of the second half, and although City created a couple of chances afterwards, there was no real threat on goal.
Instead, Arsenal launched an unhurried attack on Manchester City, and in the 80th minute, after a multi-footed pass in the middle, right-back Sagna suddenly started to move forward to disrupt Manchester City's defence.
Theo Walcott found his chance when Sagna fired a low cross from outside the box on the right and Walcott hit the post from distance, but this time the ball didn't fly off the line and bounced back into the City box.
Rosicky, but unfortunately the Czech's luck was so bad that his shot actually hit team-mate Benayoun and finally gave Manchester City a goal kick.
Seeing that time was running out, Arsene Wenger finally began to deploy his troops, Ramsey replaced Benayoun, Oxlade-Chamberlain replaced Rosicky, two veterans went off the field, and two youngsters came on.
On the other side, Manchester City has not made the slightest movement, and now this situation is not that Van Basten does not want to change, but that no one can change, and now the bench has two central defenders, two full-backs, a goalkeeper and a Minaar, and someone has asked Van Basten to adjust.
The substitution also ended up breaking the deadlock for Arsenal, and in the 88th minute, Arsenal attacked, and Ramsey passed the ball to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain under the defence of De Jong.
The latter broke down the flank and then crossed back, Arteta cut in from behind, and Barry's pace became the most fatal flaw of the game, with Arteta smashing a long-range shot before Barry defended.
Joe Hart didn't react at all to the shot because Joe Hart didn't see Arteta get up at all.
"goal~~~Kill~~~Kill~~~, Arteta, Arsenal staged a last-minute kill, a long-range shot from Spanish defender Arteta."
'Arsene Wenger's magical substitution, with the combination of Ramsey and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, helped Mikel Arteta to score his most valuable goal since arriving at Arsenal and the Spaniard's sixth in the league.
Looking at Arsenal celebrating wildly, Manchester City looked extremely bitter, and at the same time, whether it was the players or the fans, they couldn't help but think that if Balotelli had been sent off the pitch with a red card before, or the score would have been completely different at the moment.
However, this is already the case, and the Manchester City players can only wait for Arsenal to celebrate and restart the game, not wanting to concede defeat, so City will need to fight for the next few minutes.
This season, there are not many miracle games in Manchester City, so Manchester City is not desperate, and even many fans have begun to focus on the figure who has repeatedly created miracles.
It is true that Li Feng rarely disappoints the fans and supporters of him, but he is always just a person, not the one who wears his underwear, although Li Feng performed very well next, but the goal was always a little bit worse.
In the 90th minute, Li Feng staged a crazy corridor, and after the next teammate passed, he connected two Arsenal defenders along the right flank, and successfully cut inside, but the goal was a little short of flying off the crossbar.
In stoppage time, Li Feng completed another shot, and even this shot was still above the level, only Szczesny's performance was too good, Li Feng's heavy shot was directly blocked by the Arsenal goalkeeper, and then cleared by Vermaelen.
Seeing that he was cleared, Li Feng shook his head with some disappointment, and Li Feng was also disappointed as the entire Manchester City, which was also the last shot of the whole game for Manchester City.
A minute later, referee Atkinson blew the whistle for the end of the game, although he was hated by Arsenal fans for not awarding a penalty in the first half, but in the second half, the referee became the most pleasing person in the eyes of Arsenal fans, and it was because of his fouling of Balotelli that Arsenal had a last-minute stunner.
"The red card? That's part of the game, anything can happen on the pitch, I don't have anything to say," Van Basten replied with a blank face in response to a reporter's question.
Although Van Basten didn't say anything, who knew that the Dutch coach's patience with Italian problem children had reached its limit.
In fact, the media has long speculated about this situation, after all, the ability to appear here is not ordinarily strong, but compared with before, Van Basten's performance this time has been very obvious.
"I think Mario should be a little more mature" captain Kompany also expressed the Italian's dissatisfaction in an interview, or that the quality of the game completely detonated the dissatisfaction of Manchester City's players.
If Manchester City ends up losing the league title, then Balotelli can't shake off this pot, because after losing this game, the difference between Manchester City and Manchester United is only one point.
From the largest difference of 8 points to the current difference of 1 point, the gap in the middle can be imagined, if it is not for the good mentality of Manchester City, it is estimated that it has collapsed at this moment.
On the way back to Manchester, City's buses experienced an oppressive atmosphere for the first time this season, and City have never encountered such a situation since the start of the season.
As for Balotelli, although he is brainless, he is not a fool, and he also knows what serious consequences his actions have caused, so after boarding the bus, he grabbed the exclusive corner that originally belonged to Li Feng.
Li Feng has a very strange habit of taking the bus, he must sit on the last right side of the bus, if he does other positions, he will be uncomfortable, and even have motion sickness, so over time, that position has become Li Feng's exclusive position.
Fortunately, Aguero and De Jong saw the opportunity quickly and pulled Li Feng directly to the front, otherwise, things may become difficult to clean up, after all, in this case, almost the whole team has grievances against Balotelli, coupled with Li Feng's popularity in the team, it is very likely to completely detonate the conflict within the team.
