Chapter 295 Chapter 294: The winning streak ends, the half-time champion!

In the end, Aston Villa, who played away, ended the first half with a two-goal advantage, and the players from both sides returned to the locker room.

In the locker room of the home team, the atmosphere was oppressive. Wenger said angrily: "Why do we keep making mistakes in the defense of set-pieces?"

"Why can't you be stronger?"

Two questions hit the hearts of defenders hard.

After talking about defense, he turned the topic to the frontcourt: "We are too flustered, can we calm down before shooting?"

"What are we panicking about?"

"We have to give up the idea of ​​securing the victory early, this is the Premier League, any team has the ability to kill us!"

Yes, there are no underdogs in the Premier League, and it is the field with the most frequent upsets in the five major leagues.

Even if a wealthy family is not careful when facing what people think is an underdog, they will be overthrown by the opponent.

"We have to put that lofty heart back into the chest cavity, so as to provide us with more strength!"

Wenger lowered his voice slowly, and said in a low voice: "For us, this is not necessarily a bad thing. We are about to face the knockout round of the Champions League, and the competition in that field is even more intense."

"In the second half, we played the game as if it were the Champions League. This is a moment to test our ability to withstand pressure. I hope you can give me and the fans a satisfactory answer!"

The atmosphere in the locker room began to change. Yes, the opponents in the Champions League are stronger, and the pressure we face will definitely be greater than this.

Just treat this game as the Champions League!

……

After the start of the second half, Arsenal turned to control the rhythm and gave up the blind onslaught. The quality of their offense was rapidly improving.

In the 7th minute of the second half, Arsenal patiently kicked in the opponent's hinterland, Fabregas suddenly kicked the ball over the top, and the football flew into the Aston Villa penalty area.

Edvardor Costa leaned on the opponent's defender and kicked back directly. Eb, who was inserted in the back row, shot from a long distance, and the football went above the crossbar.

In the No.15 minute of the second half, Arsenal launched an attack from the left, Gallas made a cross, and the football was pushed out of the penalty area by the opponent's defender.

Chen Fan outside the penalty area took the ball and did not force a shot. Instead, he distributed the football to Cesc Fabregas on the right, and then went straight in.

The Spaniard made a diagonal pass, Chen Fan didn't stop the ball, knocked across again, and then went straight again
"Snapped!……"!
The Spaniard who got in didn't hesitate, and made a diagonal pass again, and Chen Fanfei stepped forward!

The two teenagers of Arsenal seemed to be in no man's land. They continuously crossed the opponent's penalty area and broke through the opponent's defense line!
The home fans felt their blood start to flow faster.

On the court, Chen Fan saw the opportunity to shoot and was about to shoot.

At this moment, David Yang rushed from his left side, his center of gravity dropped, and he wanted to tackle the ball.

Chen Fan raised his eyebrows and made an instant decision. He took a step forward with his left foot and landed between David Yang's right foot and the football, then quickly moved his center of gravity to the right.

The distance was too close, and David Yang couldn't retract his legs at all. The next moment, his right foot kicked on Chen Fan's left ankle.

Chen Fan let out a scream and fell down in the restricted area!
"Tick!..."

The referee blew his whistle and pointed his right hand to the penalty spot.

penalty!

The home fans cheered, they saw the hope of reducing the score, and at the same time they began to worry about Chen Fan.

Van Persie is already injured, Chen, you can't be injured too, otherwise Arsenal will have no forward...

This foul was so obvious that the Aston Villa players didn't even go to ask the referee for a theoretical theory.

Fortunately, when David Yang fouled, Chen Fan's center of gravity was on the right side, so he fell to the ground along the way, and his left ankle was not seriously injured.

With the support of his teammates, Chen Fan stood up from the turf and returned to the game.

The stadium applauded thunderously!

Gallas stood behind the football, Van Persie was not on the pitch, he was the team's number one penalty taker.

"Tick!..."

The referee blew his whistle, the French defender ran towards the football slowly, and then pushed and shot!
The football drilled into the net from the lower right corner of the goal!

The ball is in!
The score became one to two, and Arsenal narrowed the point difference!
After the game restarted, Arsenal were very active in the frontcourt and made a high press to disrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm.

Soon after, the football was again stolen by Arsenal and they launched a flood of attacks.

Facing Arsenal's fierce offense, Aston Villa adopted a dense defense, forming one defense after another outside the penalty area.

With midfielder Arsene Wenger's lectures, Arsenal was not in a hurry, they patiently turned their feet, looking for gaps in the opponent's defense.

Time passed quickly by one minute and one second, and Arsenal still failed to find the loopholes in the opponent's defense.

In the No.209 minute of the second half, Fabregas was brought down by the opponent's midfielder in front of the penalty area, and Arsenal won a free kick in a good position.

Chen Fan took the initiative to ask himself to take the free kick.

The free kick he sent failed to go around the opponent's wall, and Fabregas was fined to take two steps forward and shoot with one foot. The football was blocked by the opponent from the bottom line.

In the No.305 minute of the second half, Arsenal once again got a direct free kick in front of the penalty area.

Chen Fan's free kick this time bypassed the wall and went straight to the corner!

Just when the home fans were about to cheer, "Pong!..." There was a loud noise, the football was rejected by the column, and the football flew out of the bottom line.

"Oh no!……"

The home fans yelled in pain.

The crowd of reporters on the sidelines, the reporters from Manchester City let out a long breath. Fortunately, the god of luck is really not on Arsenal's side tonight!
Two excellent free kicks from two positions failed to bring a goal, Chen Fan was very annoyed.

Then his eyes became more determined, free kick skills can be improved later, now is the time to defend the home honor.

Time is running out, and the pressure on Arsenal is getting bigger and bigger. Is it going to lose tonight?
Arsenal continued to actively press in the frontcourt. Aston Villa was not in a hurry to transfer the football to the frontcourt. They were wasting time.

Time flies, and when Aston Villa completes this attack, a full 7 minutes have passed!

Less than 5 minutes left for Arsenal!

Aston Villa failed to attack and retreated to within 30 meters of the goal, once again forming a solid line of defense in front of the penalty area.

These lines of defense are as strong as a city wall. After Arsenal crossed a line of defense with difficulty, they found another city wall in front of them...

The clock ticked by as they destroyed each other's walls, and the fourth official held up an electronic display on the sidelines - 3 minutes of added time!

Only 3 minutes are left for Arsenal to equalize the score!
"Arsenal!"

"Arsenal!"

"Arsenal!"

The home fans roared with the last of their strength, shouting for their team.

The best way to solve dense defense, one is a set ball, and the other is a long shot.

Now it turns out that set-pieces can't solve the problem, so only long-range shots are left.

In the second minute of stoppage time, Chen Fan retreated and made a cross pass with Eb in the opponent's hinterland.

Looking at the football flying from the left, Chen Fan took a big step forward with his left foot and then raised his right leg without any hesitation!

Then, he kicked the football hard with the back of his right foot and flew towards the right side of the goal!

Aston Villa goalkeeper Brad Friedel, who made many brave saves in this game, did not see the trajectory of the football until it flew five meters away.

When he flew away, the football was only five meters away from the goal!

In the blink of an eye, the football sticks to the column and gets into the net!
The ball is in!
The score became two to two!
Arsenal finally equalized the score!

After 1 minutes, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game!
