De Jong took the corner kick.

Everyone jumped in the penalty area.

Lenglet headed the ball.

This is their last chance to attack.

Lenglet's header was still off target.

Lenglet fell in the penalty area and covered his face.

There was no chance. This was Barcelona's most promising goal, but they were just unlucky.

All the Barcelona fans in the stadium seemed to have lost their souls.

With the game over,
Arsenal eventually drew 1-1 with Barcelona away from home.

The total score was 3:2 and they advanced to the Champions League final.

Arsenal players tried their best and finally held on to the tie.

Although Arsenal suffered two consecutive draws in all competitions, they were lucky to advance to the Champions League final.

The other team in the Champions League final is Liverpool.

The news that Arsenal advanced to the Champions League final quickly became a hot topic on the Internet.

In the Champions League live broadcast room, there are still many fans having heated discussions, and the number of barrages is passing by rapidly.

"It's incredible that Arsenal can reach the Champions League final after these two consecutive draws!"

"That's right. There must be something fishy going on in Arsenal's advance to the final this time. They will definitely be beaten by Liverpool in the Champions League final."

"Come on Liverpool, you must keep Arsenal scoreless and show them our true strength!"

"Liverpool are in great form right now, winning ten games in a row in all competitions. How could Arsenal be their rival?"

"Liverpool will win, easily defeating Arsenal and winning the treble is a piece of cake!"

"Arsenal should just surrender and avoid embarrassing themselves in the Champions League final."

"Arsenal have done a good job but they should be wise to give up the Champions League final and prepare for next season."

"Arteta is such a lucky coach that Arsenal can reach the Champions League final with this performance."

"When it comes to football, I admire Barcelona. They just lost to the referee. How can a team like Arsenal be compared with Barcelona?"

"Barcelona lost with honor. Look at Arsenal, what kind of game are they playing? It's so dirty."

"There is no such thing as beautiful football at Arsenal. It is simply an insult to the sport!"

"I miss the old Barcelona, ​​that was real football. There is not a single good person in the Arsenal team."

"Arsenal's utilitarian football is really unbearable. We are like Barcelona, ​​which plays pure football."

"Arsenal's entry into the Champions League final is an insult to football. Liverpool must teach them a lesson!"

"It's really painful to watch Arsenal play. There is absolutely no technical content. Barcelona is still more interesting."

"I just wonder how a team like Arsenal made it to the final. Liverpool must teach them a lesson."

"Liverpool's strength is completely above Arsenal's. This Champions League final will definitely be one-sided."

"Can Arteta lead Arsenal to the Champions League final with his level? What a joke."

"Barcelona is the real king, Arsenal is a small player and doesn't deserve to be mentioned at all."

"Liverpool must win and show Arsenal what real football is!"

"Arsenal's utilitarian football is infuriating to watch. Barcelona still plays better football."

"I miss the Barcelona of Guardiola's era, that was the real art, Arsenal? Haha."

"The entire Arsenal team is full of utilitarians, no one has a football spirit."

"Look at how Liverpool taught Arsenal a lesson, let them know what real football is!"

"Barcelona will always be the best. Teams like Arsenal are not worthy of being compared with Barcelona."

The players don’t care what the outside world thinks of their two consecutive draws, as they have already reached the Champions League final.

So, that night, the entire Arsenal team simply celebrated.

As for the Champions League final against Liverpool, they feel that it is possible to win. If they go back and prepare well for the final, they should be able to put on an exciting game.

Soon the next day, the entire Arsenal team returned to London.

However, before playing the Champions League final, they still have to play a league game against Manchester City.

This league game will affect the competition between Manchester City and Liverpool for the Premier League title.

This is not particularly important for Arsenal because they have already secured their fourth place in the league.

By May 5,
Arsenal faces Manchester City at home.

The entire Manchester City team tried their best and launched the most fierce attack.

Fortunately, Sterling's cross was blocked by the Arsenal defender and went out of bounds.

This prevented Manchester City from getting easy chances to shoot.

Then, a corner kick was taken.

The two people in the penalty area fought desperately for the header.

However, De Bruyne got the ball outside the penalty area.

The ball was not stopped.

He shot directly into the air.

This shot was very violent.
The football flew into the lower right corner of the goal.

but,

Arsenal's Saliba bravely blocked the shot in front of the goal.
Trying to keep the ball out of the goal.

However, De Bruyne's shot was very violent and tricky, and the ball went directly into the lower right corner.

But at the same time, the referee's whistle sounded.
Indicates that a Manchester City player committed a foul in the penalty area.

The attacking team committed a foul, resulting in De Bruyne's goal being invalid.

De Bruyne was a little disappointed, but he felt that he was in good shape today, so it didn't matter if this goal was invalid, he should be able to score another goal later.

Although Arsenal is not under pressure in the league rankings, they do not want to lose at home.

So everyone quickly burst out with their expected performance, relying on stable passing to avoid Manchester City's steals.

Arsenal finally created an attacking opportunity.

Saka rushed to the right with the ball.

Facing Manchester City's tight defense, there was no concession.

He shook off the first man's defensive focus.

Then, there is space for passing the ball.

A precise pass crossed the penalty area.

Fang Cheng saw Saka's movement.

So before Saka passed the ball, Fang Cheng had already rushed into the penalty area to grab the ball.

He faced a shooting opportunity from a tight angle.

Manchester City's defense is very tight.
In this moment of lightning,

Fang Cheng used his left foot to volley the ball in an attempt to send the ball into the goal.

However, he suddenly seemed to feel someone pulling him, and then he only touched the football without really kicking it with any strength.

So the Manchester City goalkeeper just hugged the ball easily.

Fang Cheng was pulled into the penalty area, but the referee did not make any comment.

Fang Cheng had no choice but to admit defeat.

There is no way. It is impossible to ask the referee to respond promptly every time.

Because the situation in the penalty area was very complicated just now, it is possible that I didn't see the situation clearly.

In the 16th minute, Manchester City attacked again.

Because there was a mistake in the cooperation between Xhaka and S. Luo.

Originally, the tacit passing between them was the team's midfield transmission machine. However, the power and angle of the return pass were not well controlled.

This subtle mistake was caught by the sharp Sterling.

He decisively cut in and successfully intercepted the pass, creating a rare one-on-one opportunity.

Sterling dribbled towards the goal.
This was his chance to prove that he was no happy boy.

However, Arsenal had already returned to defense, which made Sterling's angle too small and his shot extremely difficult.

However, the Happy Boy still chose to force a volley.

The football flew towards the goal.

However, the Arsenal goalkeeper had already taken position in front of the goal and blocked the powerful shot with his knee.

The football was blocked out of the baseline.

Happy boy was very upset.

But he felt that he had no other choice but to shoot.

After Arsenal kicked the ball out, they were quickly suppressed by Manchester City.

Manchester City is ranked first in the Premier League. It must be because their overall strength is much stronger than Arsenal.
In the 25th minute, the deadlock on the field was broken!

Zinchenko used his excellent ball control ability in the midfield.

Pushed the ball steadily out of Arsenal's penalty area.

He reacted quickly and suddenly made a precise cross pass, sending the ball to Mahrez's feet.

Mahrez attracted a lot of attention with his excellent dribbling, and then he found that De Bruyne was in a better position.
So he decisively passed the ball to the middle again.

De Bruyne met the ball and cut into the penalty area.

He kicked the football into the blind corner of the goal.
Saliba tried to block the shot.
But he was still a step slow to react.

The football flew past him and went straight into the far corner of the goal.

The trajectory of the football made it difficult for them to react.

As the referee blew the whistle, the Manchester City players on the field became excited.

They celebrated this hard-earned goal.

Manchester City leads 1-0.
They have to win this game in order to win the Premier League title.

There is no way Arsenal will let Manchester United seal the Premier League title today.

Because this is related to Arsenal's home dignity.

On the 32th minute,

Zinchenko controlled the ball in midfield and his mentality seemed a little relaxed.

Maybe he feels he has a psychological advantage over Arsenal.

However, this mentality is extremely dangerous in a fierce football match.
Any negligence could lead to serious consequences. Sure enough, Saka noticed this opportunity.

He suddenly rushed out from behind Zinchenko,
He grabbed the football with lightning speed.

After Saka received the ball, he immediately dribbled forward.

He aimed at the direction of the goal and shot with all his might.

However, perhaps because of excessive haste,

He exerted too much force and the football went over the crossbar and flew out of the field.

This is a great opportunity to expand the score.
But it was missed by Saka.

Zinchenko almost had a heart attack.

This is because he realized his mistake, fortunately Saka did not lose the ball.

He took a deep breath and reminded himself that he had to be careful.

Guardiola on the sidelines also saw this scene.
He frowned, obviously not satisfied with Zinchenko's performance.

Such mistakes cannot be tolerated in crucial games.

We must find a way to deal with Zinchenko!

On the 37th minute,

Manchester City was not affected by Saka's shot. This is the mentality of a top team, which always has a psychological advantage.

Manchester City's attack advanced to the right side of the penalty area.
De Bruyne is always observing the changes on the field.
Then he passed the ball to the gap behind Arsenal.

Mahrez immediately caught up with the ball and was ready to shoot.

Unfortunately, Arsenal's defense was not in order, which made Mahrez's shooting angle not very good.

Finally, the football was kicked too straight.
So the ball was caught directly by the Arsenal goalkeeper.

Although Manchester City was leading by one goal, they did not choose to defend, but still attacked and waited for defense. Also, a one-goal lead was not stable.

Manchester City still needs goals.

Arsenal is also stable. No matter how Manchester City plays, they have their own rhythm.

Seeing such a tense game.

Sterling felt unconvinced.
He felt that he should step up and had the ability to change the tempo of the game.

He immediately dribbled the ball into Arsenal's right wing.

Like a horse running free,

At the critical moment, he passed the ball to the side of the penalty area.
This is the gap that Arsenal found.

The pass was both accurate and timely, demonstrating the happy boy's superb intelligence.

However, Zinchenko, who was trying to score in the middle, could not withstand the physical collision with Arsenal's defense after rushing into the penalty area, and Zinchenko staggered immediately.

Therefore, his shot was too weak.

The ball was caught by Arsenal's goalkeeper.

Arsenal's outstanding performance at the back won applause from the fans.

Guardiola was silent, his eyes fixed on Zinchenko.

His desire to deal with this man may never change.

The first half was almost over and Arsenal had not yet formed an effective attack.

Because Manchester City’s suppression was very strong.

However, in the 42nd minute, Manchester City's continuous attack hit Arsenal's right again.

Sterling cleverly dribbled past Ben White near the baseline and, with quick movements, swiftly passed the ball to De Bruyne behind him.

However, De Bruyne did not pass the ball again and shot directly.

The ball hit the defender and bounced to midfield.

Arsenal launched a counterattack instantly.

Fang Cheng got the ball and ran through midfield like lightning.

Then a one-on-one shot was created.

Facing the attacking goalkeeper,
He immediately kicked the ball into the far corner.

The football hit the far post and bounced into the net.

At this moment, the whole stadium was boiling.

Arsenal cheered and went crazy for this wonderful goal.

With the referee's whistle, the score was rewritten to 1-1. Manchester City and Arsenal returned to the same starting line.

In the second half,
Because the Premier League championship is at stake, the competition is still very intense.

Arsenal suddenly made a mistake in the penalty area.

Manchester City got a valuable penalty opportunity in the penalty area.

This penalty kick came from De Bruyne's turn and volley in the penalty area.
Unfortunately,

His shot struck Ben White’s raised left arm as he blocked it.

The referee immediately noticed this detail.
To ensure fairness, he watched the VAR replay in person.

After careful review, the referee confirmed the validity of the penalty and signaled to Manchester City that they could prepare for the penalty.

De Bruyne is the core of the team.
He shoulders the responsibility of taking the lead for the team again.

Because he was the one who caused Manchester City to lose the ball, he had to save himself and the team.

Standing in front of the penalty spot,

Then he ran up and shot!
The whole process was done in one go. (end of this chapter)
