Chapter 461 Use hats to achieve four consecutive Champions League games!
"Pretty!"

"What a wonderful shot."

"Only one minute into the game, Martin took advantage of a long-range shot and forced Alisson to make a wonderful save."

"We can easily see that Martin is in excellent condition, and it seems that there will be no surprises in this game."

……

Central 5 commentator He Wei looked at the close-up shot on the broadcast screen.

Martin, who was broadcasting the screen, winked mischievously, and then passed Xhaka who sent a wonderful through ball and gave a thumbs up, indicating that the ball was passed beautifully.

The Liverpool fans at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium cheered for Alisson's wonderful performance, but then they remembered that Arsenal's corner kick attack again, and their excitement turned dim again.

Fortunately, Mahrez's corner kick was not of high quality and flew directly out of the baseline on the other side.

Not only the Liverpool fans let out a long breath, but Klopp, who was standing in the coaching technical area on the right side of the broadcast screen, also let out a long breath.

Corner kick attack is a way of scoring that Arsenal is very good at!
The danger was temporarily lifted, and Liverpool planned to organize an attack from the backcourt. Unexpectedly, the Arsenal players had no intention of returning to their own half, but stayed in the frontcourt.

This...is a high defensive stance!
To be on the safe side, Alisson had no choice but to make a big-footed save.

But Mane, Firmino and Salah at the front are not the kind of players with excellent header ability.

Although Alisson's long pass skills are excellent, how can Firmino near the center arc compete with the tall and strong Van Dijk?

Van Dijk easily passed the ball to his partner De Ligt, who handed it to Kanter who retreated to participate in the offensive organization.

Xhaka, Martin, and Mahrez connected the ball one after another, using each other's movements to connect the overall attack.

Aubameyang and Cavani will also retreat to participate in the offensive organization to make room for forward pressing.

In the 6th minute of the game, Martin received the ball from Cavani who was retreating to support him. He passed the ball directly without stopping. Afterwards, Xhaka, who participated in the attack, stopped and adjusted at the front of the penalty area on the left, and stepped over with his right foot. From the penalty area line, hit with your left foot.

Laporte fell to the ground and was half a beat too slow to put down the shovel.

The football played by Xhaka was so powerful and the angle was so tricky that Alisson didn't even react.

Just when the Liverpool fans' hearts were in their throats, a crisp 'bang' sound instantly exploded in the air.

The football hit the crossbar of the goal hard, and then bounced back at a slightly slower speed. Returning to one meter to the left of the penalty spot, Laporte instinctively leaned back and struggled to push the ball back.

"wowowowoooooo——"

Only then did the Liverpool fans in the audience let out frightened exclamations.

However, before the breath was completely exhaled, their hearts suddenly rose to their throats again.

The football that Laporte could have pushed back unfortunately flew towards Martin's running route...

Kanter is very familiar with this operation.

Last year’s World Cup final…

It's all tears.

"Martin!!!"

Following a loud shout from Sky TV commentator Andy Gray, Martin, who appeared at the spot where the football landed, had already adjusted his steps. He supported his body with his left foot, leaned his center of gravity slightly forward, and hit the instep hard with his tight right foot. Right below the football that dropped to the level of an average person's calf.

Boom~
A crisp muffled sound emerged spontaneously.

About 27 meters away from the goal, he volleyed the ball without stopping!

The football was kicked out with great force and without any rotation. Fabinho, who was unable to block the ball with such unstoppable momentum, passed through the penalty area at high speed and flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

Goalkeeper Alisson reacted very quickly, took two steps to the right, bent his right foot supporting his body and jumped up, and raised his left arm hard, trying to intercept the rapidly flying football from its trajectory.

But his left hand was fully extended, but still did not touch the menacing football.

"Ruined."

Allison, who had done his best, showed a very painful expression.

next moment.

The extremely fast football rubbed the inner edge of the upper post of the left goal and rushed into the snow-white net...

“Goooooooooooooooooal——”

The commentators in the live commentary box all raised their voices.

"The ball is in!"

"Martin!!"

"Shoot the ball straight into the air without stopping!"

"He broke Alisson's guarded goal! Helping Arsenal take the lead at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei said impassionedly.

After scoring the goal, Martin once again made the iconic celebration gesture of lifting up his right shorts to reveal his strong thigh muscles, which immediately caused a deafening roar from the audience.

Other Arsenal players were clearly affected by the frenetic atmosphere, with captain Martin charging towards the goal.

Head coach Arteta also raised his arms and shouted excitedly, venting the ecstasy brought by the opening goal.

Although the game had just begun, he knew that his side had scored first, and as long as they did not make consecutive low-level mistakes, it was only a matter of time before they won the game.

The Liverpool fans in the audience half-opened their mouths, their brains constantly recalling Martin's goal.

Is this... okay?

It seems that there is no adjustment, just hit the ball.

Thinking of the countless wonderful world waves that Martin has scored in his career, I also know that this is a complete manifestation of his strength, not the kind of world waves that are deceived.

It means that I was mentally prepared before the game, so I quickly accepted the reality of conceding the ball.

I just feel a little depressed.

How could there be a professional player as strong as Martin on this planet?

Klopp stood in the command and technical area and kept shaking his head, looking at Martin who was crowded in the middle and sighing repeatedly.

The Liverpool players on the field felt very frustrated. Everyone actually did a very good job and defended Martin quite well, but why couldn't they limit his goals?

"Damn! Too strong!"

Goalkeeper Alisson swallowed his saliva and spit it on the ground.

……

Portugal, Lisbon, a five-star hotel.

Portuguese national team players are gathering in the hotel's multimedia room to watch the 2018-2019 Champions League final.

The players saw Martin's outstanding performance and felt very confident in the upcoming UEFA Nations League semi-finals in their home country.

Ronaldo, B Seat, B Fee and other players all showed strong feelings of envy and jealousy.

Everyone wants to have Martin's ability to score goals at any time.

Of course, they knew this was not possible.

Everyone is very lucky to be Martin's teammates in the national team.

The 2018 Fighting Nations World Cup was won almost without a fight.

That... is the championship that professional players dream of!

That's why, to win the championship so simply, that feeling is simply wonderful.

……

Miami, a mansion.

Barcelona star Messi was also watching the Champions League final. Seeing Martin once again showing his terrifying scoring ability, jealousy swept through his body again.

He... why is he so strong!
hateful!

He's actually stronger than me!
※※※※※

The Champions League final at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium restarted. Liverpool, who were lagging behind, did not rush to equalize the score, but patiently organized the attack to see if they could find Arsenal's defensive loopholes.

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray shook his head and said: "I personally feel that Jurgen Klopp's tactics are very unsuitable to face Arsenal. In the past, many top teams organized attacks step by step. The result? Not only did they not find the The chance to equalize the score was expanded by Arsenal’s efficient attack!”

Mourinho, who served as the guest commentator, nodded and said: "Personally, I feel that when playing against a team like Arsenal, we should go head-to-head and use a tough attack against Arsenal. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope! How many games have it been? Arsenal, who are leading from No draws or losses.”

Could Klopp not know this truth?

But he really didn't have the confidence to go against Arsenal.

Arsenal's opponents have also adopted similar tactics, and there is indeed a glimmer of hope.

But in the end, they all failed miserably!

As you get older and have more experience in the game, you become more cautious.

There are some things you have to be careful about.

Arsenal, who took the lead, were very patient.

Since you are not in a hurry to equalize the score, there is no need for me to speed up.

Everyone, keep playing!

Although everyone played poorly, the excitement did not drop.

In such a high-level contest, time passed very quickly. At the 35th minute, the scoreboard still showed Arsenal leading 1:0.

Liverpool, who were lagging behind, remained patient and cautious on both offense and defense, leaving Arsenal no room to create opportunities.

At the cost, they didn't create any decent chances.

Often at this time, the role of stars is too important. Martin, who had been closely monitored before, was only responsible for threading and transition, leaving the offensive organization completely to Mahrez and Xhaka.

In the 37th minute, Xhaka received a careless heel knock from Martin, made a slight adjustment, and then sent a precise long pass to the attacking left rib.

The high-speed running left back Mendy stopped and sent a cross, but Matip jumped to clear it.

Arsenal gets a corner kick.

The atmosphere at the Wanda Metropolitano suddenly became frenetic.

Corner kick attack is an important scoring method for Arsenal, and it is also one of Martin's stable scoring points.

Whether they were fans at the scene or fans in front of the TV, they all held their breath and stared at Martin, who was specifically explained in the broadcast screen.

A close-up shot of his face follows one of the world's top football players.

The quality of Mahrez's previous corner kicks was not very good, but it did not affect the focus of Liverpool's defensive players on Martin.

He is still under the care of Matip and Wijnaldum.

"aooaoaoooooooo——"

With huge cheers from the audience, Mahrez took a corner kick from the left.

The football shot up from the ground with a strong inward arc and passed over the penalty area. The flight path seemed a bit high, flying high from the near end where Martin was.

The football flew towards the center of the goal urgently. Van Dijk, one of the players involved in Arsenal's key corner kick attack, jumped high, and Laporte, who was following the defense, subconsciously followed suit.

However, when he subconsciously jumped up, he found that he had been tricked.

Because... Van Dyke's take-off was a complete feint.

The one who was really responsible for grabbing the points was De Ligt who took off right after him!
Goalkeeper Alisson subconsciously moved to the left side of the goal.

The attention of Liverpool's defensive players also came to De Ligt.

Henderson, who was responsible for marking, was blocked by the moving Cavani, so he could only watch helplessly as De Ligt leaped high.

But De Ligt, who ran to the edge of the small penalty area on the right, did not directly attack the goal. Instead, he headed the ball back to the center.

Klopp, who was standing in the visiting team coach's technical area, tensed up.

When his eyes glanced at Martin, who had come to the penalty spot from the previous point, he felt bad.

Arsenal fans and Liverpool fans in the audience made completely opposite calls.

The former is passionate, the latter panicked.

Matip, who has been responsible for marking Martin, was blocked by the strong Aubameyang. He could only watch helplessly as Martin jumped up in front of the penalty spot to complete the header relay.

The height of the jump was not very high, but the football that was pushed towards De Ligt’s forehead was very large.

Power + angle!

"Oh My God!"

"Martin!!"

"Heading relay!"

"Goooooooooooooooal——"

About a second later, the commentator's shouts rang out from the commentary box.

"aoaoaooaoooooooo——"

The entire Wanda Metropolitano Stadium once again became a sea of ​​joy for Arsenal fans.

After scoring the goal, Martin ran towards De Ligt, who completed a precise header back, and called on his teammates to come up to celebrate the goal that expanded the score.

The Liverpool players in the penalty area looked at the ecstatic Arsenal players and felt confused.

They seemed to already know how this game would turn out.

Any team that fell two goals behind Arsenal never came back.

Are records meant to be broken?
This sentence is correct.

But Liverpool players knew such words were directed at a team other than Martin.

In other words, records are broken by Martin.

Arsenal coach Arteta became even more excited, he knew what this goal meant.

Secure the victory!

Of course, the players on the field didn't think so. After Martin's deliberate reminder, they all realized that the game was not over yet.

To ensure victory, the lead must be maintained until the end of the game.

Just when the Liverpool players were feeling desperate, the Liverpool fans in the audience sang "You'll Never Walk Alone" again.

The loud singing that swept through the audience immediately brought the Liverpool players back to their lost world.

When the game restarted, they finally got into a position of being behind in the score, and it was particularly obvious to strengthen their offense.

However, Arsenal's overall defense was very good, and they did not take it lightly when they were two goals ahead. The players filled in timely, and Martin's command meant that Liverpool's offense was unable to threaten Leno's goal.

Arsenal, which was leading by two goals, focused on stability and maintained its 2:0 lead until the end of the first half.

After a 15-minute intermission, the game changed sides again in the second half.

Liverpool, who were lagging behind, did not lay the groundwork and burned the battle directly into Arsenal's defensive half.

This situation was also anticipated by Arsenal head coach Arteta during the halftime break. He made targeted arrangements and the players were focused and did not have any chance with the Red Arrows.

After a long offensive without scoring, the offensive players became more and more impatient.

Salah, Mane and Wijnaldum completed outrageous long-range shots one after another, and Arsenal had the opportunity to kill the game!

In the 54th minute, Kanter successfully intercepted the ball, and the counterattack became a positional battle due to Martin's lack of space for the ball.

Through continuous and uninterrupted passes, Cavani, who was moving at the top of the penalty area, passed Xhaka's pass directly to the approaching Mahrez. He pretended to stop and play, but in fact he faked a shot and actually dunked. Use superb foot skills and excellent balance to smash the ball into the penalty area.

Henderson belatedly extended his leg without touching the ball or anyone.

Fabinho, who was on defense, was very active. He saw how often Mahrez touched the ball in the penalty area and decisively intercepted the ball. Unexpectedly, the opponent touched the ball more frequently. It was too late for Fabinho to close his legs.

"Beep~"

The referee Skomina decisively blew his whistle and pointed his finger at the penalty spot.

The Liverpool players naturally protested, but Skomina was very confident in his judgment and made the penalty unwaveringly.

Klopp, who was standing in the visiting team coach's technical area, shook his head again. From his perspective, it was clear that Fabinho had indeed kicked Mahrez's supporting foot.

Penalties are no problem.

The Arsenal fans in the audience reveled again, and the Liverpool fans obviously knew what they were going to face next.

Alisson is indeed good at saving points, but Martin... has never missed a penalty kick.

It's not that he has no confidence in Alisson, but Martin is too perverted!
as predicted!

Martin, who took the penalty kick, didn't even make a fake move. He pushed the arch of his right foot directly into the lower right corner. Alisson, who made accurate judgment, had a full arm but could not touch the football...

"The ball is in!"

"hat trick!!"

"Arsenal leads Liverpool 3:0!"

"This goal almost sealed the Champions League title this season!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei blurted out his words eloquently.

At this moment, Arsenal fans all over the world are celebrating wildly.

Because they know that this goal is equivalent to sealing the victory.

Liverpool fans were devastated, obviously knowing that conceding the ball meant defeat was certain.

Klopp and his players closed their eyes in pain and allowed the endless cheers to sweep through their bodies.

lost.

Although there was still more than half an hour left in the game and Liverpool had another reversal gene, facing Arsenal who performed steadily, no player could still ignite the desire to fight.

Trailing by three goals, there was no chance of an equalizer.

What's the use of having more time?

Liverpool fans, who have always had absolute hope for the team, also languished. No one could open their mouths and sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" in this situation.

If we talk about singing, the "Martin Song" sung by Arsenal fans quickly swept the audience.

Liverpool players no longer have the desire to score goals, and Arsenal players are also happy to consume the game time through reasonable passes.

In other words, Liverpool has accepted the reality of losing.

The score of 3:0 remained until the end of the game.

"Beep~beep~beep~~"

Referee Skomina blew two short and one long whistles to mark the end of the game.

"competition is over!"

"competition is over!!"

"Congratulations to Martin! Congratulations to Arsenal! They got their wish and won the UEFA Champions League in the 2018-2019 season! This is also their fourth consecutive Champions League title! They are only one step away from the fifth consecutive Champions League created by Real Madrid, the place where the Champions League was founded. Next season! I believe that as long as Arsenal keeps Martin, the probability is...very high!"

At the same time, Central 5 commentator He Wei shouted passionately.
