------------

"Will over Tactics" Sky Sports used this title after the game to sum up the game.Throughout the game, although Arsenal created a lot of opportunities, the decline in midfield interception and weak physical confrontation allowed Chelsea to control the game, so Chelsea dominated the scene, but the final result was Arsenal's tenacious equalizer The score, especially Henry's fatal goal, is a reflection of Arsenal's strong willpower.So Sky Sports described the game as "Arsenal's will to be undefeated"

"World-class game, except for the referee" This is the headline of the Daily Mail. They believe that this game deserves the attention of the world, but Webber and the line referee's penalty has discredited this game and strongly recommends the FA to intervene in this game The investigation of the game also demanded that Webber apologize for the game.

"Thierry, the King leads the scorer list again" The Mirror pointed out in the article that Henry, who scored four goals in two games, is ready to win his Premier League scorer again.

The "Shameful Referee" The Independent also set its sights on Webber, from Henry's header being blown off, Essien's malicious foul in midfield, handball misjudgment...etc. Webber, who has the reputation of being the number one referee in England, was thoroughly criticized by the media.

"Ugly defensive line, unfortunate Jose" The Sun was one of the few to point out the ills of Arsenal's defense in this game, pointing out that Chelsea had many opportunities to directly kill the game, but they wasted countless opportunities. Although they controlled the game, they did not. The defensive counterattack that I am good at played, several players were too slow and the pass was not accurate, which caused them to lose the game.

"Webber Detonated the Audience" BBC's attention also fell on Webber. It was his wrong judgment at the last moment that caused the Stanford riots caused by Arsenal fans and caused several fans to be injured.

"We hope to hear the referee's apology" When the Times later interviewed Wenger, Wenger also expressed his dissatisfaction with a penalty in this game, especially the two Arsenal players who were injured because of the referee's relaxation. In the end, Van Persie's red card made the professor directly question the referee's penalty scale.

"My team played 5 more minutes" Chelsea's coach Mourinho was also very dissatisfied with the time Webber gave Arsenal to attack at the last moment. Mourinho said that the game started from Bergkamp. For the ball, Webber should have stopped the game immediately instead of allowing the two players to continue the confrontation for a few seconds. It was these few seconds that caused Arsenal to take away what was originally a glorious moment for Chelsea.

France's L'Equipe, Germany's Slow Motion, Spain's Marca, and Italy's Gazzetta dello Sport all commented on the focus of Arsenal and Chelsea, except for praising Henry's shocking goal. , They also pointed out Weber's mistakes in this game. For a while, the British refereeing issue became the attention of world football.

In short, this focus battle has extended countless points of view. Arsenal is considered to have not lost their aggressiveness, and Chelsea's invincible argument has also died down. Now people's eyes are on the FA. **Stupid how the Football Association will deal with this refereeing crisis. According to the British media, Wenger has also prepared more than a dozen pages of materials to appeal to the referee and apply to revoke Van Persie's red card.

"Hey, Raphael, congratulations on winning the game, how are you doing?"

Benitez, who was sitting at home, suddenly received a call from someone he couldn't think of.

"Hey, Arthur, I really didn't expect you to call me. Tell me, what's the matter, you won't call me for no reason."

"Hehe, no, I heard that your team also encountered some problems during the game. If you are interested in chatting, I am willing to be a listener." Wenger's meaning was obvious.

"Well, well, let's find a place to chat tomorrow morning." Benitez thought for a while before finally agreeing. ...

"Pat, are things ready?" Wenger tidied up his clothes and asked Pat beside him.

"Things are ready, but Arthur, you really want to appeal to the referee, you need to know those people..."

"I know this, but this opportunity is rare. Now the FA is under a lot of pressure. We just need to be properly reminded. You know that our confrontation has dropped too much now. I need this opportunity to try to avoid it. My players got hurt unnecessarily."

"Okay, I'm busy now."

Wenger smiled, got into the club car, and set off for the FA headquarters.

Next, the all-pervasive reporters already knew that Wenger appealed to the FA for refereeing, but no one knew the specific content of the appeal, even those inside the FA. After Wenger's statement, he was very dissatisfied, and stayed in the office with his most trusted Latga for an afternoon.

"Damn Arthur, what is he thinking? Doesn't he know that this is the century-old British style? No one can change it, and how to change it. Do you want us to learn La Liga?" David wanted to get rid of his anger angrily. Song Dynasty porcelain.

"David, I think Arthur should know this too, and I don't think he wants to change it. It's just that he proposed some of the referee's penalties. He suggested advocating technical contests to make the game more enjoyable."

"Damn it, how do you advocate it? Do you want us to play against those dancers? Do you think our clubs are all giants? Leave him alone, does he still want to be the godfather of the Premier League?"

Wenger has already returned to the club, and he can imagine Chairman David furious in his office, while Wenger is leaning on his seat and drinking coffee comfortably.

In the next few days, the reporters stationed in front of the FA made big discoveries one after another. Liverpool's head coach Benitez, Newcastle's Souness, Villa's head coach and a series of famous and not famous The coaches all came to the headquarters of the FA, but left in a hurry.

No one knows exactly what they did, but it is certain that it has something to do with the referee, and the newspapers have already surrounded the FA. Any troubles can't be hidden from these undocumented agents , Even David was so angry that he was constipated in the toilet by some gossip reporters.

"Damn it, Mattga, what are you talking about, what are these coaches trying to do? Do they really want to change British tradition? It's impossible, impossible."

"David, I don't think they are like this. I think they understand what will happen to the fans when this point comes out. Probably they just want to take advantage of this opportunity to reduce some unnecessary physical confrontation in the game. The style of these coaches Mostly players who appreciate technicality, so I think they want a penalty that keeps their players on the pitch longer."

"Well, let me think about it... There are indeed too many players who are unwilling to come to us these years... But if we change, we will lose the support of the fans."

"Actually... In fact, we can not change, but moderately strengthen some penalties for physical injuries. This is also good for the technical and physical confrontation of the game. I think it may be more attractive to players and fans." Matt added Advice comes.

"Well, let me think about it." Chairman David leaned on the seat and thought quietly.

After Wenger handed in a piece of material, he immediately started a new round of preparations. He will also play Fulham on Tuesday. Wenger hopes that his players can maintain the good condition of the first two rounds.
