Chapter 177 Solid footsteps

Arsenal defeated Ajax and advanced to the Champions League semi-finals. This is another key point after Arsenal missed the Champions League last season.

This also shows that despite Arsenal's ups and downs, they are still firmly moving towards the top.

The most critical thing is that Arsenal's state during this period is scary.

It seems that no matter what kind of team it is, no matter what type it is, they can easily control it without any problems.

Just like the game against Ajax, before the game, many people thought that Arsenal might take advantage of the recklessness of young players like Ajax.

But after double defeating Ajax in two rounds, they fell silent.

This Arsenal really gives people a feeling that they have no idea where to start.

Currently, Arsenal has advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.

The league has a big advantage going forward. As long as they win two games, Arsenal can win the league championship in advance.

In the FA Cup, Arsenal also reached the finals.

In this way, Arsenal really may win all the championships this season.

This has also caused many Premier League teams and European media to exclaim that another monster-level team may appear in the Champions League.

The competitiveness shown by Arsenal is really difficult to fight against.

The next day, the results of another game came in.

The Champions League semi-finals are confirmed.

They are Tottenham Hotspur and Barcelona in the top half.

Liverpool and Arsenal in the bottom half.

There are four teams in the Champions League semi-finals, and three Premier League teams are among them, which makes the Premier League media become tough again.

The talk of ‘the world’s best division’ is once again flourishing in the British peninsula.

This Champions League semi-final, especially the second half of the game, has become the current focus.

Last season, Liverpool eliminated Arsenal in the Champions League final and won the Champions League trophy. Now Arsenal has made a comeback and the two teams have once again met in the Champions League semi-finals.

This time Liverpool and Klopp need to face an Arsenal that is more powerful and has extremely strong combat effectiveness.

However, Liverpool is not that easy to deal with. Although their performance in the league is quite satisfactory, their performance in the Champions League is still extremely strong.

There are even signs of winning the Champions League again.

But this time, they met Arsenal.

This also makes this game full of gimmicks.

The outside world is constantly noisy, but Arsenal is training calmly, trying to stay in shape for every subsequent game.

For Arsenal, the most important thing at the moment is the league title.

35 rounds and 36 rounds.

Between these two weeks of match days, there is also a Champions League semi-final.

It can be said that the most testing time has come.

In these games, it is no longer possible for Arsenal to make rotations, and Mourinho will not be so bold in making strategic substitutions in the final sprint.

They must play steadily, and for this reason the main force will encounter extremely strong pressure during this period.

But the good news is that based on the previous rotation, the main players are still in very good condition.

Therefore, they are still very confident about the subsequent games.

On April 23, Arsenal ushered in the 35th round of the 2018/2019 Premier League season.

They will face Crystal Palace away from home.

Crystal Palace is currently in a relatively safe position, but there is still a risk of relegation.

If they lose 3 games in a row, they will slip into the relegation zone again.

For this reason, Crystal Palace will not let go of this home three points easily.

But Arsenal's purpose is to seize the title by force. With only two games left to win the championship, Arsenal must use all their strength.

After all, they don't want to compete with Manchester City in the 37th round.

For this reason, Arsenal will play with all their main players in this game.

And showed strong offensive intentions in the game.

Especially Lucky's position is also slightly forward, closer to attacking.

Crystal Palace, on the other hand, put on a bus lineup and began to focus on defense.

Their demands are simple.

When facing Arsenal, Crystal Palace almost never thought about winning. They just wanted to win a draw at home and score one point to maintain the current situation.

But facing Arsenal, even if they put on a bus lineup, Crystal Palace's defensive pressure is still very high.

Aubameyang and Dembe on both sides are desperately trying to break through. Each of their breakthroughs can pose a certain degree of threat to Crystal Palace, and sometimes they even require foul tactics.

For this reason, within 30 minutes, the two full-backs of Crystal Palace had already received yellow cards.

But Arsenal not only scored goals from both wings, but also advanced along the central axis.

There is also the long-range threat of Lucky from the outside. It can be said that even if Crystal Palace has a bus lineup, it is still difficult to maintain.

"Arsenal's offensive penetration is so good. When the Gunners want to score, few teams can stop it, even if the opponent sets up a bus lineup!"

Paul Mawson lamented.

Arsenal's diverse attack in the frontcourt made Crystal Palace dizzy.

Every time he makes a replacement and defends, Arsenal will create a certain gap.

Once there is a gap, Arsenal will not be polite.

But for Arsenal, they also have a certain amount of offensive pressure.

That means you have to score first.

Once they get a goal, especially late in the first half, it's a really good time.

"Jack! Make more cross-positions with Aubameyang and give me the central axis!"

Lucky watched Wilshere always move to both sides outside the penalty area. He believed that this method could not score a goal.

When Lucky goes forward, the two people's positions overlap. For this reason, Lucky needs Wilshere to move slightly to the side to provide him with more space.

Hearing this, Wilshere was also very obedient.

It would have been fine if it had been someone else, but Lucky had spoken, and based on this newcomer, he would have carried it out without hesitation.

When the ball was passed to Wilshere's feet again, Wilshere dribbled directly towards the wing while Aubameyang cut inside.

When the two crossed, Aubameyang hooked the ball over.

Crystal Palace's defenders faced the sudden change of positions, and their positions began to become crowded and confusing.

At this time, Aubameyang passed the ball across to Lucky in the middle.

"He's going to kick off!"

The Crystal Palace defender yelled anxiously.

Immediately, two players rushed towards Lucai.

But at this moment, Le Kaiyang pulled the ball towards the left side of his body. He pretended to pass the ball, but there was a dunk at his feet.

The ball passed between two Crystal Palace players, and Lucky also passed by and entered the penalty area.

"Oops!"

Seeing Lucky running towards him in a menacing manner, the Crystal Palace defenders immediately went into chaos.

They rushed forward one after another. They couldn't afford to lose the ball at this juncture.

The more anxious you are, the bigger holes will appear in your judgment.

Lucky saw the other party's movements, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He stepped on his feet and tilted his body to the left. The Crystal Palace players also blocked the ball to the left.

At this time, Lucai stepped back gently with his right foot.

The ball actually rolled to the right.

The pass wasn't fast, and it couldn't even be called a pass.

Lucky just stepped on it and took everyone to the left.

And there was already a gap for shooting.

Aubameyang moved forward quickly, and when no one was marking him, he easily pushed the ball into the goal with the arch of his foot.

At the same time, Lucky collided with three Crystal Palace players.

My body ached a little, but my heart felt extremely comfortable.

"Beautifully passed on!"

Aubameyang did not celebrate alone, but ran to Lucky and pulled Lucky up, and the two hugged each other heavily.

Soon, Dembeilai and others also ran over, with happy smiles on their faces.

What about setting up a bus?

They are still capable of defeating the opponent's defensive positioning.

This goal completely ruined Crystal Palace's plans.

Originally, they could successfully advance into the second half after persisting for a few minutes. There would be an intermission and three substitutions, and they would have a greater chance of keeping the tie on the court.

But they still failed to stabilize the situation, and Arsenal scored with this wonderful cooperation.
