Volume 3 The Myth of the Gunslinger Chapter 193 The First Crown in Five Years
Manchester City, who were two goals behind, launched a tidal wave of attacks, and they still believe that Arsenal must have a fitness problem, otherwise they would not have been beaten so badly in the first half.
If it weren't for the lead of two goals, the Arsenal players who were not physically fit could really collapse, but the current Arsenal players are in high spirits, have a stable mentality, and soberly use the card position, supplemental defense, and pinch attack to resolve Manchester City's offensive, make full use of the advantages of local numbers and small space, and alleviate the physical disadvantage.
In the 20 minutes after Arsenal's goal, Manchester City's players launched countless attacks, but they were all broken up by the unity of Arsenal's players, and the game was like a tide crashing against the embankment.
“…… Arsenal really showed the essence of technical football, they made Manchester City's brutes attack without a single way, and won the essence of Chinese kung fu......
Duan Xuan, a Chinese commentator, commented.
"The title is still 22 minutes away, it is difficult for Manchester City to score three goals in such a short period of time, ruining the Arsenal winner's winning feast, according to Premier League rules, the trophy is awarded in the first home game after the champion team is guaranteed to win the title, Arsenal can get a point in this game, the English FA will give them the trophy, Arsenal have won the trophy in England's top competition 13 times, but in the past five years, they have not had the opportunity to win the 14th, 13 is considered an unlucky number in the West, Li Huan's arrival has made the number of Arsenal champions break through 13, oh, it will soon break through 13, and in 21 minutes, the game will end, and the 18th English Premier League championship will be produced, let's wait and see......"
The disadvantage of the two goals has not been filled, Manchester City's mood is getting more and more impatient, and the action is getting bigger and bigger, originally Manchester City's camp has Barry, Tevez, Bellamy, Adebayo and other thorns, in the case of backwardness, they have become a time bomb.
In the 70th minute, Li Huan knocked sideways, and Van Persie's powerful right-footed shot from 30 yards out was saved sideways by Given. The save left Given's left shoulder was injured and the goalkeeper, who turned 34 last week, stepped off five minutes later, with the Faroe Islands goalkeeper Nelson making his first appearance for City.
In the 75th minute, Bellamy tackled Walcott, and the two men bumped each other with their chests, and they were both yellow carded.
In the 80th minute, Adebayor counterattacked with the ball and was tackled by Van Persie, and the Dutchman avenged the first round of Adebayo's black feet at the cost of a yellow card, and more than 60,000 fans at the scene were cheering for Van Persie and waving a check to Adebayo.
McTJones signaled the game to continue in accordance with the principle of offensive advantage, Tevez grabbed the ball and dribbled at high speed in the front court to face the three-man joint defense, the little monster continued to dribble, and used his body and technology to break through their defense, and finally Li Huan quickly moved the middle to successfully break the ball and squeezed Adebayo.
At this time, the emotions between the home and away sides have become highly tense, and large and small clashes occur in the corners of the stadium from time to time.
In the 81st minute, Bellamy tackled Alexander on the side. Song, and didn't close his feet, Song angrily put his face close to Bellamy and roared, saliva sprayed Bellamy's face, Bellamy is also a macho man on the court, he pushed Song violently, and the two then scuffled.
At this time, the nearby Arsenal players hurriedly stepped forward to separate the two men, today is the day of Arsenal's championship, and the Arsenal players don't want the brawl to mess up the celebration.
Referee McJones saw it clearly, and immediately rushed over to show each of them a red card, ejecting them from the court.
Although the atmosphere of the game is more tense than just now, no one dares to make a big move, for fear of being sent off by the referee, and the players also know that the referee's cards are also a habitual problem, once the first card comes out, the easier it will be to pull out the cards later, and no one wants to touch the mold of McTJones. At the same time, Manchester City's players also got some reassuring news that their rivals for a Champions League place, Tottenham Hotspur, are 2-1 down at Manchester United, and even if Manchester City lose this game, they still have a chance to be one point behind.
In the 85th minute of the game, the eyes of the more than 60,000 fans at the scene were not all in the stadium, most of the fans began to watch the time frequently, and the fans sang the classic song "We Are the Champions" instead of the team song.
3 minutes, 2 minutes, 1 minute,......
"Champion! Champion! ”
Arsenal cheered and the stands at the Emirates Stadium seemed to rise two metres out of thin air, but then they fell into a rage as the referee gave five minutes of stoppage time, three minutes in the first half and five minutes in the second. Although with five more minutes of stoppage time, Manchester City may not be able to equalize or even reverse, but Arsenal fans can't wait, five years, Arsenal have always missed out on all the titles, which makes Arsenal people have a strong fear of something impossible.
"Black Whistle! Off-the-suffle! The Arsenal fans roared, countless middle fingers stretched out, and the whole stadium erupted in a burst of boos.
It was dead time and the Arsenal players approached referee McTJones to question how long the five minutes of stoppage time he had given. But McTJones was unmoved, signaling that there was no problem with the stoppage time he had given.
In the final five minutes of the game, Manchester City's players launched a final wave of frantic attacks, with all players pressing on all sides, and goalkeeper Nelson pushed up to 20 metres of his penalty area. At this moment, Manchester City has not reversed Arsenal's heart, Tottenham has been beaten 3-1 by Manchester United, Manchester City only need to get a point, they can tie Tottenham in points, two goals in 5 minutes, it is not absolutely impossible.
But a minute later, Manchester City's illusion was dashed, Li Huan made a long diagonal pass in the backfield, the ball hit directly to the left side of the field, and the substitute Gossip Youngster Wilshere quickly succeeded in countering offside, and successfully hit the goal at a small angle on the right side of the Manchester City penalty area, rewriting the score to 4:1, and Arsenal completely locked the win.
"Champion! Champion! We are the champions! ”
There were deafening shouts and applause on the field, and the fans were completely relieved at this moment, 4:1, Manchester City had no way to reverse it even if it had great ability, and the championship of Arsenal was definitely in the pocket.
The substitutes and assistant coaches on the sidelines couldn't sit still, and they all walked from the bench to the sidelines, waiting for the moment when the referee's whistle blew at the end of the game. 5 years! I don't know how many talented teenagers have gone from the peak to the trough; I don't know how many unpaid superstars have gone away, and now the dream is about to come true.
59 seconds...... 58 sec...... By the minute mark, the more than 60,000 Arsenal fans in attendance had stopped applauding and cheering, counting down the seconds together, and the entire stadium was in a solemn atmosphere like church prayers...... 4…… 3…… 2…… 1……

At this moment, let's enjoy the glory of the championship with the Gunners! ”
Referee McTJones's whistle seemed to drain the strength of all the players of Arsenal, their physical strength had long been exhausted, and the last chance to counterattack was completely Wilshire acting alone, and no one else was answering, and now the reasons that supported them to stand on the field were all gone, and everyone was lying on the lawn weakly, smiling widely, but they didn't even seem to have the strength to speak......
Arsenal...... Come on Arsenal...... Arsenal!
The Gunners chanted: You don't want to get a point from Arsenal, April will be our winning season, England's champions will be heroes, goals come hard and fast, the Gunners make Arsenal the favourites to win the title, the red and white shirts show how good they are, come on, Arsenal, you are the favourites to win the title......
