Chapter 202 Fighting the Hornet Again

The Westfalenstadion is the famous home of the devil in Europe, and its popularity is the most popular in Europe.

Even in the dressing room, Lucky could hear waves of mad cheers from the outside world.

These all give them some pressure.

Arsenal's players are all nervously preparing for the game, and they seem to be chatting casually, looking extremely relaxed.

But only in this kind of environment can you feel the sense of depression that comes from the heart.

This is the Champions League quarter-final!

In the next step, you can reach the semi-finals!

This is a fatal temptation for every player!

nervous! perturbed! excited! Wait for the emotions to come to your mind.

Someone was sitting on a bench and praying with their hands folded on their foreheads.

Someone kept checking the equipment on his body, for fear of any omissions.

Someone's hands were shaking.

Someone is shaking their legs!

At this moment, every Arsenal player cannot relax.

Even Lucky, he kept taking deep breaths to relieve the tension in his heart.

Wenger stood aside and watched this scene. He did not deliberately boost morale, but quietly watched this scene.

Appropriate tension is necessary to get them into the game more quickly.

will also promote their performance in the game.

Dong Dong!

There was a knock on the door, and a staff member stood at the door and made a gesture that they could line up.

Shoo!

Lucky got up suddenly, turned around and walked out.

And the other Arsenal players followed suit.

In the player tunnel, the two teams arrived almost at the same time, but they did not make any eye contact, turned straight, came to stand on the side of their lineup, and waited for the start of the game.

Soon, a staff member came in leaning against the camera.

Players have become accustomed to this.

A tensed face appears in the camera, thereby spreading through the camera to all over the world.

Sina Sports Live Room.

Zhan Jundao: "We can see that the expressions of the players of both teams are very nervous. After all, the tickets to the Champions League semi-finals can be decided through these two games!"

"For Dortmund, they want to continue the glory of last season, and at the same time make up for the regret of being defeated by Bayern Munich and unable to win the Champions League!"

"And for Arsenal, the Gunners have been waiting too long for this moment!"

"They have been eliminated in the Champions League quarter-finals for three consecutive years. This year, the Gunners defeated Bayern Munich and got close to the quarter-finals, and their goal is last season's Champions League runner-up, Dortmund!"

Zhang Lu: "This Arsenal is also unlucky enough. The quarter-finals play the Champions League champion, and the quarter-finals play the Champions League runner-up!"

"The two strongest teams from last season were met by them!"

Zhan Jun also grinned; "Arsenal's signing luck! It seems that it has not been very good all the time. Of course, the same is true for Dortmund. After defeating Bayern Munich's Arsenal, Dortmund must go all out and not underestimate the slightest. !"

The players of the two teams walked out of the aisle holding the hand of the caddie. After completing the ceremonies such as clapping and shaking hands, the captains of the two teams guessed the side.

Arsenal and Dortmund are both second captains.

Lekai and Hummels guess the edge.

Lekai won the guessing side, he chose the ball.

It seems that Lucky is lucky when he guesses, he can always get the result he wants.

After came to his own half, Lucky began to move his body and prepare for the game.

Dortmund is definitely not a good team to deal with, so Arsenal need to be more vigilant.

Dortmund (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller.

Defenders: Piek, Friedrich, Hummels, Durm.

Midfielders: Joic, Kirsch, Mkhitaryan, Grosskreuz, Reus.

Striker: Lewandowski.

Arsenal (4-3-3):

Goalkeeper: Szczesny.

Defenders; Sarnia, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal.

Midfielder: Flamini, Cazorla, Lucky.

Forwards: Rosicky, Suarez, Walcott.

Time passed, Le Kai tightened the captain's armband on his arm, his expression became more and more solemn.

At this point, the referee walked out of the middle circle.

The scene began to get restless.

Until the whistle rang at the start of the game, the Dortmund fans in the audience immediately began to shout.

Beep! !

With the whistle, Lewandowski completed the return pass.

This also means that the game is about to start.

Dortmund did not attack in the first place, but tested Arsenal with the ball in the backcourt.

But the Arsenal players rushed in the very first moment of the game.

Especially Walcott rushing towards Joic who is holding the ball is directly a sliding tackle.

Beep!

The foul whistle sounded.

Walcott was warned by the referee at the beginning.

And Walcott got up like nothing, this is his warning to Dortmund.

"Theo! Calm down!"

Lucky shouted from behind.

He was afraid that Walcott would be too excited and do something out of the ordinary.

In response, Walcott made an OK gesture towards Lucky, indicating that he was fine.

Lucky then nodded.

On the other hand, Dortmund was a little disrupted by this foul ball.

They wanted to get involved with Arsenal, but Arsenal came up with a slippery tackle, and it was clear that they wanted to be tough.

For Klopp's Dortmund team, the most feared thing is toughness!

They are not a team that plays slow-paced football like Bayern Munich, Klopp's Dortmund can also play fast-paced!

When the ball came out again, Dortmund started to attack continuously.

Dortmund's offense is one of the best in the Bundesliga. Even under the tactical concept of high-level pressing and quick counterattacks, this Dortmund team sometimes has even higher offensive capabilities than Bayern Munich.

Creating chances in attack, this is how Dortmund play.

On the other hand, Dortmund's defense has some problems.

Hummels and Friedrich are good partners, but the two German defenders have a common problem, that is, they like to grab!

Hummels is very capable and has a high steal rate, but as long as there is a problem in this link, there will be huge dedication in Dortmund's back line.

Even if Friedrich knew the truth, it was difficult to avoid completely.

Lekai was cruising in the backcourt area of his home, observing the progress of the game and thinking about how to play football in his head.

At this time, Lucky noticed that Royce was quietly running towards the sideline.

That cautious look is like a thief.

And Dortmund quickly gave the ball to Reus.

Royce got the ball, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Lucky standing in front of him.

Royce suddenly panicked, he hurriedly pulled the ball sideways and made a protective action.

He was scared of being robbed by Lucky!

But this time, Lucky didn't take the fight, but looked at Royce eagerly.

Royce saw that Le Kai was silent and prepared to cross.

But at this moment, pressure suddenly came from behind.

Walcott quickly retreated to complete the outflanking, and Lucky also started immediately to grab it.

Lucky and Walcott's flanking and counter-attack have been extremely skilled, and the two reasonably grabbed the ball from Reus' feet.

In the end, Walcott took the ball directly and started to turn around and run!

Royce looked depressed. He paid too much attention to Lucky, so he didn't observe anyone flanking from behind.

At the same time, he couldn't help feeling that the coordinated defense of this Arsenal team was getting better and better.

"This is Arsenal's tactic against Bayern Munich, and now it's working well for Dortmund. Of course, for Reus, it was abrupt, after all, in the group stage, Arsenal will not play like this, they More relying on Kai's steals!"

"But now this Arsenal team can tackle from anywhere on the pitch!"

As the commentator said, Arsenal can steal anywhere.

This is somewhat similar to Dortmund's high pressing, but more coordinated.

Of course, Borussia Dortmund is not good either.

After conceding the ball, they also fought back decisively.

Royce chased back, Kirsch outflanked in the middle, and Durm pressed forward to block.

A little compression of Walcott's passing space, and finally a steal.

So far, both teams have been active and aggressive.

But more dogfights took place in midfield, so there were fewer shots on goal.

One more delivery!
