Chapter 157: The Real Killer

"Oliver Giroud!! A striker from France!! Giroud's performance in this game has been wonderful enough, and now his goal is definitely the biggest contribution!"

"I'm sure that Giroud is Arsenal's most successful transfer this season. His arrival has opened up a diverse offensive line for the Gunners."

"We can often see Giroud dropping back to play and organize. We are all used to this, and we even forget that he is also a center who can grab points!"

"His header is also a very powerful weapon!"

"Beautiful!! Giroud!!"

"In the 78th minute, Arsenal took the lead again and we took the lead at home!!"

The on-site commentator's excited voice echoed throughout the stadium.

This also made the Arsenal fans present, including those in front of the TV, extremely agitated.

This is the Champions League semifinals!

One step forward is the Champions League final, the stage that everyone dreams of.

Four years ago, Arsenal dominated Europe on that stage!

Four years later, they made a comeback. With a different lineup, different players and coaches, Arsenal has completed the update. They have once again impacted this honor with a new look.

Giroud's goal shocked the scene.

Mourinho at the coaching bench was also excited and started running wildly to celebrate.

On the bench, Lukaku opened his mouth slightly.

His performance in this game cannot be said to be bad, he had an assist.

But the problem is that Giroud is doing better.

Giroud has effectively threatened his position, not beyond it.

Maybe in Mourinho's mind, Giroud is already ahead of him in the center list. After all, Lukaku's condition has not been well guaranteed after returning from injury. On the other hand, Giroud's performance is getting better and better. The better.

Whether it's retreating to play the ball or grabbing points in front of the goal.

Giroud has shown the versatility of a center. Just imagine, a more comprehensive and easier-to-use center compared to a single-function center, who can please the head coach more?

The answer is beyond doubt!

Lukaku understood this, so the tension in his heart became more and more intense.

Of course he is nervous, but he has no plans to leave Arsenal.

Even in Lukaku's mind, even playing as a substitute at Arsenal is better than playing for other teams.

He likes the playing atmosphere here and the salary is not particularly low. The most important thing is that he can produce results here.

Arsenal players celebrated wildly.

Lucky even picked up Giroud and showed it to the fans.

Giroud, who is 193 centimeters tall, was picked up by Lucai, but Lucai looked effortless.

After landing, the two hugged fiercely.

"Well done!"

Lucky patted Giroud hard on the shoulder.

Giroud covered his mouth and said: "Thankfully the captain pulled Ramos away just now, otherwise it would be difficult to hit the ball!"

Lucky smiled and said: "If you can score a goal, I can definitely cover it for you."

Jirou looked at Lucky.

Lucky scored a lot of goals at Arsenal, but they were real goals.

Giroud is very convinced of Lucky, and the ultimate reason is the issue of strength.

Lucky's goal was completely devoid of any water, every bit of it was made by himself.

And Lucky is also willing to help his teammates, but sometimes they are not particularly good at seizing opportunities.

But even so, Lucai is still willing to sacrifice himself to help his teammates.

I have to say that this kind of captain is really rare.

"Okay, it's time for us to go back. Although we are ahead, we cannot take it lightly. We cannot let Real Madrid equalize the score again!"

Lucky's words made the Arsenal players nod fiercely.

The last equalizer was extremely uncomfortable for them.

And now that they have finally taken the lead again, they will not give Real Madrid such a chance again.

At this moment, Arsenal's morale became extremely high.

Arsenal begins to retreat in the shot.

Sky Sports commentary in Taichung, Andy Gray couldn't help but sigh: "Arsenal can always give us great surprises in major competitions, and to be honest, Arsenal's current competition has been severely damaged, with two main players injured and one injured. Even though they were suspended, their performance in the game was always exciting!”

"Arsenal is different!" Commentator partner Richard also lamented; "When we talk about Arsenal, we are more of a joke."

"Fourth place in the league! Champions League! Although there have been wonderful performances, various problems always arise at critical moments, and now this Arsenal has completely changed. Perhaps for Arsenal fans, this It’s the most intense change!”

As Richard said, Arsenal fans' support for the current Arsenal team has reached a new high.

Even higher than their unbeaten championship season.

Although Arsenal had an outstanding performance in the league at that time, they were still in a tepid state in the European war.

It is also common to say that insiders are experts in civil war and outsiders are outsiders in foreign war.

Arsenal fans wanted to refute, but they couldn't find a reasonable entry point and could only sulk.

And what about Arsenal now?

Who dares to say that today's Gunners are soft-footed shrimps in the European war?

Death team wins!

Successively defeated the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich and the red and blue team Barcelona!

Now they have turned the defense of Real Madrid, the cosmic team, upside down at home and taken the lead.

In such a cruel schedule, can this kind of performance be replaced by other teams?

So, now Arsenal fans can stand up straight.

Who dares to say that they are a pseudo-strong team?

They have the confidence to blow up the opponent!

And all this is brought to them by the home team.

In recent statistics, the number of Arsenal fans in Europe is steadily increasing.

Most of them are young players.

Those young people who have not yet fully established their favorite team have always been the fan force that major teams are competing for.

But they all chose Arsenal!

This also fully demonstrates the charm and strength of Arsenal.

It can be said that Arsenal is definitely the top European team in recent times!

Back to the game.

After Real Madrid fell behind, they also became a little panicked.

It is not so easy to equalize the gap during this period of time.

In order to quickly equalize the score, Zidane made another substitution.

Vazquez went off and Bale came on.

Further strengthen the frontcourt attack.

With Bale on the field, the former BBC combination has also completed the reorganization.

But can the current BBC combination still have the dominance of the past?

After the injury, Bale is in a state of no state.

Ronaldo also inexplicably showed a low level of depression in the game.

The only good one is Benzema.

But Benzema's position in Real Madrid is not an offensive core position.

He will more often distribute the ball and handle the work to the two wingers.

In this state, Real Madrid's offense does not seem to be very ideal.

But for fans who have experienced the BBC era, they still look forward to these three people being able to perform well.

Just like before!

Although many people are saying that there are more problems with this combination.

But for those old fans, they have been waiting for the reunion of these three people.

However, the surprise did not wait, but the shock came suddenly.

After Bale came on the field, he wanted to run along the side, which is also his best weapon.

Bale's speed is still so daunting.

But the problem is that Arsenal has a lot of experience with this kind of speed players.

They knew how to deal with it.

For this reason, Bale plunged into Arsenal's encirclement.

After completing the steal, the ball was passed to Saka.

Saka twisted and turned, using his agile body advantage to twist Carvajal's defense, and then quickly moved forward.

However, when he went to the bottom, Carvajal had already rushed over.

After there was no inward channel, Saka directly passed the ball to Lekai who was responding forward.

Lekai held the ball and moved horizontally along the penalty area line.

At this time, he noticed that Navas's position was slightly to the right.

This is a problem that Navas often makes, and his position sense on the goal line is not very good.

If it were other players, it would be fine, but Lekai has the ability to shoot from a distance.

Seeing Navas's position, Lekai did not hesitate and directly swung his right foot to shoot.

The ball flew towards Real Madrid's goal in a parabola.

Navas tried his best to block it, but the ball still flew into the goal from the top of his arm.

A real blind spot!

In the 82nd minute, less than five minutes after the last goal, Arsenal scored another goal.

Arsenal leads Real Madrid 3:1!
