Chapter 669 Istanbul only favors Liverpool!
Istanbul, Turkey.
Liverpool once staged the famous “Istanbul Night” here. After falling behind AC Milan 0-3 in the first half, they scored three consecutive goals in 6 minutes in the second half and finally completed the comeback, creating the famous Istanbul Night.
Walking on the road to the Sarajoglu Stadium, Arsenal fans were a little uneasy.
Although only Lucy was absent, they always felt extremely uneasy.
Arsenal fans who are familiar with Lucky’s presence find it difficult to find that sense of security in the absence of Lucky.
Just like the last round of the Premier League game, Arsenal obviously played at home, but played extremely passively.
Not to say, not playing well.
But it always feels weird!
Wilshere’s ability is good, but it’s not enough to admit enough heavy responsibilities, let alone think that Lucky has that kind of absolute dominance.
Lucky is the backbone of this Arsenal team.
September 15th, Sala Joglu Stadium.
The Arsenal team arrived on the pitch.
They walked into the court in silence and started pre-match preparations.
After warm-up and tactical arrangement, the players of the two teams stood in the player channel.
Wilshere stood in the front row as the captain, with the captain’s armband tied on his arm.
This is the second time he has worn the captain’s armband this season.
Wilshere is now the second captain of Arsenal. In the absence of Lucky, he needs to take on the important task of leading the team to victory.
Still, Wilshere felt the pressure was too much.
I didn’t know this when I followed Lucy’s ass before, but the moment I stood here, Wilshere’s body was a little stiff.
But he can’t show any stiffness.
The teammates behind him are watching him.
”Take it easy, Jack!”
Suddenly, the goalkeeper Martinez behind him patted his shoulder, and Wilshere’s whole body froze.
”Can you see?”
Martinez nodded silently.
Wilshere smiled wryly to himself, so why did he think of becoming the captain in the past, and why is this job so tiring.
But no matter how tired you are, you have to hold on.
”Get ready to play!”
said the referee in front.
Wilshere took a deep breath, followed Lucy’s example, and roared.
”Asen~na!”
Due to too much pressure, the word ‘森’ in the middle was broken.
The entire player tunnel was silent, and everyone looked at Wilshere in astonishment.
The players on Fenerbahce’s side couldn’t help laughing out loud.
Wilshere’s whole face was as red as a monkey’s butt.
At this moment, he wanted to find a dog hole to get into.
How embarrassing!
In the end, Wilshere had to bite the bullet and walk onto the court.
Wilshere felt extremely stiff in taking pictures, guessing sides, shaking hands and other links.
Mourinho also saw the problem and couldn’t help shouting; “Jack, relax, you are like a wooden man now.”
Wilshere turned his head and nodded towards Mourinho.
In this regard, Mourinho sighed; “Jack’s state is not right!”
Arteta shook his head and smiled bitterly; “There is too much pressure. After being tied in the last round, Jack blamed himself and felt that he could not lead the ball. Even if the team wins, he still has high demands on himself.”
”Sometimes, it’s not a good thing!”
”Yes!”
Starting lineup for both sides:
Fenerbahce (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Demirel.
Defenders: Ozbayrakli, Kjaer, Skrtel, Kaldrim.
Midfielders: Potuk, Topal, De Susa.
Forwards: Lens, Sow, Volkan.
Arsenal (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Martinez.
Defenders: Bellerin, Jimenez, Hummels, Monreal.
Midfielders: Xhaka, Wilshere, Elneny.
Forwards: Aubameyang, Lukaku, Mane. ”Here is the first round of Group A of the Europa League, Fenerbahce
VS Arsenal!”
Ramsey and others, this also puts Arsenal’s lineup in an extremely unstable situation. The most important thing is that Lucky, as the captain, has not finished the national team game. He will return to Arsenal tomorrow, which also means We couldn’t see Lucky in the game.”
”Mourinho tried his best to strengthen the defensive ability of the midfield, but whether Arsenal’s midfield combination can withstand the pressure, especially Xhaka, this is his first time. Can they show enough performance if they get a chance to start once?”
”For Fenerbahçe, they played with all the main players, obviously to win the game at home!”
”Fenerbahce’s head coach Ai Devocaat also said that they have no hope of defeating Arsenal. Whether Edvocaat can achieve his wish and whether Fenerbahce can defeat the mighty Arsenal! The referee blows his whistle and the game officially begins!”
”Fener Nebahce kicks off first, Sou kicks off, Fenerbahce passes back, Topal makes a long pass directly to Lens, Lens shoots!!!”
The commentator shouted in amazement; “The ball went in?” The
ball was beating in Arsenal’s goal.
The game started less than a minute ago, did Arsenal concede a goal?
The entire arena was silent.
Soon, there was a tsunami of cheers at the scene, and Fenerbahçe fans went crazy with joy.
They even scored!
In less than 1 minute, a goal was scored!
As a goal scorer, Lens ran all over the field excitedly.
”Let’s take a look at the ball again. Fenerbahce midfielder Topal made a long pass, Lens volleyed directly, and the ball went straight to the dead corner! This is a fairy ball!!” The
commentator said with emotion.
The coaches on both sides also looked confused.
Fenerbahce’s coach, after a short shock, began to celebrate in ecstasy.
They have arranged sneak attack tactics, and when they want to leave Arsenal when they are out of form at the beginning, they will try a wave.
But I didn’t expect this trial to directly lead to a goal.
Arsenal, on the other hand, were completely confused.
Mourinho’s eyes widened even more, and his lips were tightly pursed, his eyes filled with anger and murderous intent.
What is this kick!
So easy to be scored by the opponent?
In the game, the Arsenal players also looked at each other in blank dismay. This conceded goal was completely unexpected to them.
But what happened next made them even more confused.
After the game restarted, Fenerba cut off the striker, everyone joined the defense, and a large number of people gathered in the penalty area.
These guys started driving the bus!
Score a goal and start driving the bus!
Although it looks ugly, this is definitely the most effective way for a weak team to beat a strong team.
And they get a leading goal, as long as they don’t lose the ball, they can win the game!
The angry gunmen began to bombard Fenerbahce wildly.
But the effect is minimal.
Fenerbahce survived the first half abruptly.
In the second half, they took the lead in making substitutions, all of which were defensive players, and then continued to place the bus.
Faced with this tortoise shell named Fenerbahce, Arsenal have nothing to do.
No matter how they seduce, the other party will not leave the restricted area.
The tortoise shrinks its head, and it will not show its head if it is killed!
For a full 90 minutes, Arsenal played so aggrievedly.
And Fenerbahce received six yellow cards in 90 minutes.
Foul tactics, bus tactics, home court advantage, fairy balls and other factors are all used by them, which is called a familiarity.
With this fairy ball, Fenerbahce won Arsenal in a daze.
The Fenerbahce commentator at the scene was roaring even more.
”The game is over! We have won the mighty Arsenal. Fenerbahce’s warriors played an amazing game. They tenaciously won the game!”
The whole game ended, Arsenal The expressions of the players and coach Mourinho are ugly.
In fact, it is not that they have no chance to win the game, but this game obviously has the factor of the home whistle. Many penalties were avoided, which caused Arsenal to miss many opportunities and failed to equalize the score.
And this also ushered in Arsenal’s first defeat of the season!
That night, the London Sports News published the news.
”Arsenal lost the Europa League opener! “
”Istanbul only favors Liverpool!” “
The Magic Ball Beats Arsenal! “
” The Gunners’ first defeat of the season! “
” Gun fans are calling for Kai’s return! “
Similar reports emerged one after another, with one draw and one loss in two consecutive games, which filled the hearts of Arsenal fans and players with anxiety.
Three more sent! !
