Chapter 970 Half a foot on the podium
"How can it be!"
Lucky was almost soaring above Otamendi's head, the wind whistling beside his ears.
Le Kai's eyes were fixed on the ball, and the moment his forehead touched the ball, he immediately shook his head.
The ball responded to the sound and flew towards the dead corner.
With a bang, the ball hits the net!
"Goooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!!!"
The on-site commentator George Adams jumped up from his chair, and his shouts roared throughout the scene.
Arsenal fans throughout the Emirates Stadium are also boiling in an instant.
Cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami poured in, beating the center field again and again like a raging tide.
Everyone can hear the cheers like a hurricane around their ears.
"Kay!!!!"
"Wonderful header! He accurately judged the landing point and helped Arsenal score the first goal from the back point!"
"This is Arsenal's aerial combat capability! Under Mourinho's training, Arsenal is no longer the team that only knows how to fight on the ground, and their headers are just as good!"
"Any team that dares to underestimate Arsenal's set kicks and corner kicks will be scored!"
"Just like this time!"
"Otamendi had a wonderful goal destruction, but when facing Kai, he was also eclipsed!"
"Look at this header, it's just perfect!"
In the arena, Lucky raised his hands high, which aroused the enthusiasm of the entire Arsenal fans.
As gun fans, they firmly believe that Arsenal can win the game.
But this ball came too unexpectedly!
No!
Arsenal always like this.
They can always grasp the key scoring moments.
Mourinho on the coach's bench also jumped up suddenly, celebrating excitedly.
As the head coach, Mourinho's pressure is enormous.
Whether it is the brutal schedule we are facing or the problem of personnel supplementation under player injuries.
He has been under this pressure.
And now, with Lucky's goal, all this disappeared.
Arsenal got the leading goal at home!
Facing the mighty Manchester City, they still firmly scored the goal.
"Kai's jumping ability is simply amazing!"
After calming down, Andy Gray shook his head and said with emotion: "When Otamendi came to the landing point, Kai had already completed the jump ahead of time. With his amazing ability to stay in the air, he almost glided all the way and completed the header!"
"This requires accurate judgment of the landing point, but also requires amazing jumping ability!"
"Kay's jumping ability has proved this in the match against Real Madrid. Facing Ronaldo's almost abnormal physical fitness, Kai is still not far behind!"
Richard nodded in agreement with this view, he said: "If Kai took off with all his strength, his jump height would be higher, but he used more of his upward kinetic energy in the sprint stage, which also lengthened his jumping distance. The translation distance in the air, but this requires an almost absolute judgment of the landing point, from this aspect, it can be seen how difficult it is for Kai to fall to the ground during air combat!"
"Otamendi's ability is very good, but he is not enough to completely limit Kai, or, for any defensive player, defending Kai is an extremely demanding problem!"
"Maybe only a team with absolute height like Stoke City is not afraid of Kai's header ability."
Richard analyzed calmly, but he could not help admiring Lucky in his words.
In fact, Lucky's performance has been amazing.
If there is no accident, Lucky will continue to be the best player in the Premier League this season.
Today's Lucky is in the top three in both goals and assists!
In the scorer list, it is ranked second, only 3 goals behind Salah, the first scorer.
Currently, Lucky has scored 28 goals this season.
As a defensive midfielder, this kind of scoring efficiency can already be described as horror.
Lucky on the assist list is also gorgeous.
Although it is in third place, it is only two goals away from the first De Bruyne.
It can be said that if Lucky is working hard, he may even get the first place in the double list.
However, in the final round of the league, and facing Manchester City, under such harsh conditions, it is impossible for Le Kai to score goals and assists.
Lucky himself didn't think about these issues, he only wanted the league championship, and that was enough!
"Captain! It's beautiful!"
Arsenal players are celebrating excitedly.
Lucky's goal gave them a great boost to their morale.
Giroud's expression reveals even more excitement.
It can be said that Lucky fully met all the requirements of Giroud for "a strong teammate".
Spiritual level, economic level and even critical moments, Lucky is satisfied.
Following such a captain, it is extremely satisfying for Giroud to be able to play in this kind of team.
He is reasonably able to fully enjoy the happiness brought by football, and at the same time he can get enough honors.
Yes, he believes so!
Arsenal players surrounded Lucky and returned to halftime.
The eyes of the Manchester City players also fell on Le Kai.
Their eyes carried extremely complicated colors.
This is not the first time!
They never underestimated Le Kai, and they didn't dare to underestimate each other.
But even under such circumstances, Lucky still played so well.
They tried their best to restrict Le Kai and cut off the possibility of Le Kai's scoring, but faced with the gap in physical fitness, they really had no choice.
Facing Le Kai's tyrannical body that has been built up year after year, they are hard to shake.
"We need goals!"
Aguero found De Bruyne.
He knows what kind of passing ability this Belgian has, and he also needs the cooperation of the opponent.
"I see!"
De Bruyne's tone was very flat, but anyone could feel the competitive momentum contained in this flatness.
Guardiola couldn't sit still anymore, he stood on the sidelines and kept boosting morale.
At the same time remind the Manchester City players to play calmly.
When facing Arsenal's counterattack, Manchester City always has a feeling of panic.
This feeling is especially prominent in the back line.
At the same time Guardiola is also a little worried about Otamendi.
Otamendi's performance was very good before, which also made him play more confidently. This is a virtuous circle.
But Le Kai's goal had too much impact on Otamendi.
It was almost like scoring their goal over the top of Otamendi's head.
In this regard, Otamendi failed to make any response.
This has an extremely huge impact on any player.
The trance at that moment, the frustration at that moment is not to mention how uncomfortable it is.
"Don't care about this goal!"
David Silva comforts Otamendi.
The latter pursed his lips tightly. Even though he was comforting himself like this, he really couldn't ignore it!
Otamendi thought of many ways, but he felt as if he really couldn't stop Lucky.
Even with a parallel jump, he couldn't jump as high as Lucky.
Unless it is a foul!
Otamendi shook his head hastily.
He knows that there is something wrong with his mentality. He is a central defender, and if he fouls, it is likely to be a penalty.
This is absolutely unacceptable for Manchester City.
"I'll adjust!"
Otamendi said.
David Silva turned his head and left.
Manchester City players returned to their positions and prepared to kick off.
Arsenal's goal had a great impact on them.
Especially in this critical game, any goal will have a great impact on morale.
This is a game related to the league championship!
Taking the lead in this game undoubtedly means that half a foot has stepped on the podium.
The silver trophy is there. They don't want to lose this trophy, and they don't want to waste a season of hard work.
And for all this, they also have to cheer up.
"Guys, cheer up, let's turn the situation back!"
David Silva cheered loudly.
At this moment, the eyes of the Manchester City players also became resolute.
They are very aware of what they lack, and at this critical moment, Manchester City is always unable to go further.
And this is their problem, they need to break these shackles.
This moment is the time to make a change.
I can no longer play passively like this.
They need to take the initiative.
They want to score!
They want to reverse the situation and win the final championship trophy.
