Chapter 099 A fatal blow! (1)
The physical fight in the Wolverhampton half continued, and the players of both teams were all angry. At this time, there was no more exquisite cooperation on the field. Although there was no bloody violence, the frequent fouls had affected the normal operation of the tactical cooperation of the two teams. In the past ten minutes, the referee had shown seven yellow cards in a row. Wolverhampton received five and Arsenal received two, but this had almost no effect on the situation on the field.
In the audience, Arsenal fans were constantly cursing. On the field, these ordinary English gentlemen took off their disguises and filled the stands with all kinds of foul language, shouts and curses. Many fans even wanted to jump over the stands and enter the field to help Arsenal beat their opponents with violence! Perhaps, such a game has lost its competitive meaning, but the game will not end because of this. Time is also wasting away in this kind of ** battle.
Coach Wenger stood on the sidelines, watching this farce, but felt somewhat helpless. He decided to appeal to the English Football Association after the game to stop this unsportsmanlike tactic, but it was obvious that he was now overwhelmed by anger. How could the English Football Association possibly handle such a thing!
…………
At this time, almost everyone's attention was focused on Wolverhampton's half, paying attention to the development of the game. Even Dave Jones on the sidelines did not notice that Wang Li had exchanged positions with Miller and stood on the Arsenal back line. If he moved a little further, he would be offside.
No, someone still noticed that in the Wolverhampton fans' stands, the little princess Angela had been paying attention to the black-haired boy on the field since the beginning of the game, but she didn't care about the game format. Originally, she came here to watch the game just to see Wang Li up close. The performance of other players and even the final score had nothing to do with her.
Angela stared at Wang Li's figure with her eyes fixed on him, not realizing the current situation on the court. Wang Li's every move touched her heart, "He is really handsome!"
Seeing Wang Li suddenly running to the empty front court, little Angela also reacted and asked the fans next to her with some confusion: "Why did Alan run to that position? Why is he not defending in the backcourt? Why is that?" As she spoke, she pointed in the direction of Wang Li on the court.
Wang Li was about ten meters behind the center line at this time. Because the ball was constantly passed back and forth in Wolverhampton's penalty area, Arsenal's defenders were about to overwhelm Wolverhampton's half. This position was between Dur and Lauren. Considering the current situation in Wolverhampton, he was already standing very forward. Obviously, this location was an excellent position for a counterattack!
Next to him was a young man named Collet Jack, a loyal fan of Wolverhampton. Seeing that the little princess Angela took the initiative to talk to him, Jack was a little excited, and then he realized what Angela said, and then he reacted, following her finger, looking towards the front court of Arsenal. When he saw Wang Li's position, Jack suddenly realized something, and hurriedly patted the arm of a middle-aged man on his left, "Uncle Philip, look at Alan's position, maybe Wolverhampton will launch a counterattack again!"
Jack's face was filled with intense excitement. He also realized that perhaps the 'Dancing Master' was going to launch another counterattack. As a loyal fan, the little princess was not as attractive to him as the Wolverhampton team.
Philip also reacted and told the news to the fans around him. Just like that, after a while, the fans of Wolverhampton noticed Wang Li's strange behavior. They all stared at the black-haired boy on the field, looking forward to his next performance.
At this time, a strange phenomenon appeared in the audience. Arsenal fans were shouting loudly at the stadium, while Wolverhampton fans were silent. The fans did not remind Arsenal to be careful. They hoped that their opponents would make more mistakes!
…………
In the 81st minute, Arsenal got a set-piece on the left side. This time, it was Lyle who committed another foul, but it was not serious. He just took advantage of Pires' breakthrough and bumped into him lightly. Although the referee Willy wanted to send off one player to deter the players on the field, he could only give a verbal warning in the face of such a foul. The referee was not omnipotent. If Lyle was sent off directly and Wolverhampton appealed after the game, it can be imagined that his future would be bleak.
Campbell is a very reliable and technically competent defender. This is his third season at Arsenal. Before 2000, Campbell was the captain of Tottenham. However, because he transferred to Arsenal on a free transfer and did not make Tottenham a penny, he was hated by Tottenham fans and even called him "Judas"!
For this set piece, he ran directly to the left side to take the penalty. Seeing this situation, Wolverhampton knew that Arsenal might have to take a tactical free kick, because if they wanted to shoot directly with this ball, it would be too high. Even Beckham would not have much chance of shooting directly.
Sure enough, as the referee blew the whistle, Campbell dropped the ball directly into Wolverhampton's small penalty area. At this time, the small penalty area was crowded. Vieri, in the chaos, carried two defenders, jumped up directly, and passed the ball to Henry on the small penalty area line!
Seeing the ball flying towards him, Henry didn't make any adjustments at all. He just kicked the ball directly, and the ball whizzed towards Wolverhampton's goal!
But there were too many people in Wolverhampton's penalty area. The ball hit Naylor's left leg directly, bounced out of the penalty area, and flew towards Lyle on the right. At this time, there was no one around Lyle. Most of the Arsenal players were in Wolverhampton's penalty area, while the other players were near the midline, watching the situation in the frontcourt. After Lyle grabbed the ball, he was about to launch a counterattack!
"Pass it! Here!" Just as Lyle started, he heard Miller's shouting beside him. Without thinking much, he kicked the ball to Miller.
After Miller got the ball, he looked up at the front court, stepped forward with his right leg and kicked the ball towards the Arsenal penalty area. The Arsenal fans in the audience were about to shout for the players on the field to pay attention to defense, but they saw Miller kick the ball directly to the front court where there was no one. The shouts were stuck in their throats, and then there was laughter!
"Was he frightened by Arsenal's attack? He actually kicked the ball away at this time?"
"Of course it is. You can see that the Wolverhampton players have no fighting spirit at all. They were besieged by our team for dozens of minutes, so it is forgivable that they were a little stupid."
"It was probably a mistake. That was Miller. He's a striker. He's on the top scorer list this season."
…
However, the Arsenal fans only had a moment to discuss this, and then they immediately opened their mouths wide and stared in shock at the white figure in Arsenal's half. After the noise ended, the whole stadium was dead silent. Even the Wolverhampton fans looked at Arsenal's half in disbelief.
The speed of the white figure on the field has even reached the limit of human beings! He rushed straight towards the Arsenal penalty area! The extraordinary speed and agile figure shocked the fans in the field. Even Wenger and Dave Jones on the bench stood up suddenly in disbelief!
"Come on! Come on!" Little Princess Angela, who was sitting in the Wolverhampton fans' stand, was very excited. In the quiet Highbury at that moment, her sweet voice was particularly prominent! Seeing Wang Li running on the court, little Angela, who was smiling at the whole audience, could no longer hold back. She immediately tore off her lady's veil and turned to cheer for Wang Li loudly!
"come on!"
"One more goal!"
"Let Arsenal know how powerful we are!"
Immediately afterwards, waves of cheers came from the Wolverhampton fans' stands! ;
