Football: Shine in the AFC Champions League and sign with Arsenal on the spot

For the third year in a row, Arsenal met Barcelona in the knockout rounds of the Champions League, and the outside world is also generally bearish.

Even the always optimistic Chinese fans are full of gloom.

There are too many highlights of the Champions League quarterfinals between Arsenal and Barcelona in this game.

Among them, Arsenal fans are most concerned about the 'Fa Loyalty' Fabregas facing the old boss.

What makes Arsenal fans angry:

Cesc Fabregas stayed at Arsenal for eight years and even became captain, but later paid a release fee out of his own pocket to move to Barcelona for the so-called 'homesickness'.

This made Arsenal fans angry and accused him, and the Gunners fans in China also gave him the title of 'Fa Zhongyi'.

This goodbye is already an adversary, and there is a lot of interest in what Cesc Fabregas will do.

It was in this noisy atmosphere that Arsenal arrived in Catalonia, Spain.

Arsenal have loaned the Real Espanyol training base to maintain training.

Interestingly, it is similar to Arsenal's previous loan of the Inter training base.

Pochettino, the current manager of the West, came to the training ground to exchange tactics with Arsene Wenger, and yes, it is the same Uncle Po who will coach Tottenham and Paris in the future.

Let's talk about communication tactics, actually....

Time flies quickly, and the first leg of Arsenal's Champions League quarter-final tie with Barcelona is approaching.

At the pre-match press conference, Barcelona's current manager Pep Guardiola was present with Messi.

A British journalist asked.

"Two, what do you think of Arsenal's striker Chen Fan now, and what is your evaluation?"

The two people on the stage also thought for a moment when they heard this question, and Guardiola was the first to answer.

'Chen is a very good player and he has made a name for himself in Europe lately and I admire him.

Then came 'Boss May' Messi said with a smile.

"I know Chen, I think he has world-class potential and I'm looking forward to playing him on the court."

......

"Audience friends, this Champions League quarterfinals match between Arsenal and Barcelona will be explained by my Zhan Jun and Zhang Lu."

'Hey Ha Combo' reappeared in the studio, smiling and greeting everyone.

"In this game, my country's player Chen Fan is still the starter, and now he is indispensable in the Arsenal team."

Zhan Jun looked at Chen Fan walking out of the player's tunnel on the screen and said.

At this time, Chen Fan was waiting for the player tunnel to play, and the Barcelona player next to him was Messi!

Messi is Chen Fan, and in his previous life, he was a player that Chen Fan liked very much in his previous life.

Now that Chen Fan saw the real person, it was not an exaggeration to say that the deer was colliding with each other, and secretly glanced at Messi.

Coincidentally, Messi just turned his gaze and made eye contact with Chen Fan.

Messi was also stunned, and immediately smiled at Chen Fan and stretched out his right hand.

At this time, Chen Fan forcibly suppressed the tension in his heart, and also shook hands with Messi with a smile.

This is the end of the interaction between Messi and Chen Fan, after all, the two teams are about to play, and there should not be too much contact before the game.

Call!

Chen Fan lowered his head and breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, stabilizing his emotions.

When I looked up again, my eyes were full of fighting spirit.

Soon the players from both sides walked out of the tunnel together.

As soon as he stepped out of the exit, Chen Fan's first feeling was that it was noisy, unprecedented and noisy.

Barcelona's Camp Nou can accommodate around 100,000 people, and it's quite amazing that so many people are making their voices together.

The pressure on the Arsenal players is enormous.

Soon players from both sides were standing on the pitch.

Beep!

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, and the first leg of the quarterfinals began!

Chen Fan, as Arsenal's strongest attacking point, naturally received special attention from Barcelona.

Beside him was the iron-blooded defender Puyol, whose curly hair put a lot of pressure on Chen Fan.

As the game continued, Chen Fan also found that Guardiola really attached great importance to him.

As soon as he gets close to football, not only Puyol, but also Pique and Alves will change some of their movements to help defend.

Of course, Chen Fan does not have many opportunities to get close to football, because as the game progresses, the situation on the field is gradually taken over by Barcelona.

At the beginning of the game, the Arsenal players also tried to use pressing to put pressure on Barcelona.

But it turns out that such high-intensity pressing will be exhausted by Barca's passing football before they can pose a threat.

Arsenal's midfield trio was not yet able to confront Barcelona's Habaib and was completely suppressed and forced to regain the front.

In such a situation, Barcelona played steadily, waiting for a great opportunity to give Arsenal a fatal blow.

Sure enough.

In the 23rd minute of the first half, 'Little White' Iniesta picked up the ball near the center circle and found a fleeting empty crotch on the right side.

Without hesitation, Xiaobai directly kicked a precise straight stopper.

Wilshere, who saw the little white straight plug, reacted quickly and hurriedly stepped forward to make a tackle.

Unfortunately, the ball rolled too fast and rolled before Wilshire could kick it.

Then he turned his head to see a figure wearing a red and blue striped jersey appearing in the empty crotch.

The number on the back is number 10.

"Messi!"

Carlos, the Spanish commentator of the game, chanted.

I saw Messi after receiving the football on the field, and the cadence of his feet began to accelerate.

After seeing Messi get the ball, the Arsenal defenders suddenly tensed up, and they were all engrossed.

Vermaelen, who has a lot of defence experience, was the first to get close to Messi, hoping to quickly destroy the football.

It's a pity that Messi just used a simple pluck to turn him around.

It's not that Vermaelen didn't expect it, but Messi's speed of action was too fast, so he didn't react.

Seeing Vermaelen's other three Arsenal defenders who were easily passed by Messi, Li Ke, Koscielny, and Gibbs all looked solemn.

The three of them glanced at each other, understanding that they were thinking the same thing, and at the same time stepped into their bags.

Seeing this, Messi is still unhurried with the ball.

When approaching the first defender, Li Ke, his pace suddenly accelerated.

The right foot buckled the football to the left, and with a slight push with the left foot, the football passed under Li Ke's crotch in an instant.

"It's... Deep-fried croquettes!

Zhan Jun exclaimed in the studio.

Li Ke, who wanted to stop Messi for a moment and waited for the other two teammates to arrive, was shocked, and it was too late to turn around and chase back.

At this time, Messi was only Szczesny standing in front of the Arsenal goal, who was staring nervously at the football at Messi's feet.

Messi didn't hesitate anymore and shot directly with his feet.

Nearly 100,000 fans at the Camp Nou were all staring at Messi's shot.

When they saw the football flying in from the top left corner of the goal, all the Barcelona fans present cheered.

Like an earthquake in the sky.
