Chapter 407 The Path to Growth [Monthly Ticket Request]

In the Arsenal dressing room.

The atmosphere was more depressing and dull than ever before.

After closing the door of the dressing room, the suffocating and crazy cheers of the Newcastle fans in the stands outside finally disappeared at this moment...

The whole world was quiet!

Unfortunately, even if the door is closed, the confusion and confusion in the Gunners' hearts will not disappear because of the closing of the door...

Everything that happened in the first half was so shocking that at this moment, when the young Gunners thought of the three words "Li Tongfan" and the black figure standing in the opponent's command seat, they were already afraid before the battle and couldn't help but feel defeated...

Professor Wenger looked at the Gunners who all hung their heads without exception and sighed softly...

"Such a result is indeed unacceptable, and now I have to admit that the Chinese standing in front of Newcastle's command seat is too terrifying... Such a person is simply born to be the nemesis of other coaches. Living in the same era as him is the greatest sorrow for a football coach..."

"However, at this point in the game, we already have too many reasons not to give up. If we still lose with a humiliating score of 3:0 with two more people, If we lose the game, then no matter what kind of record we have achieved in the league before, it will become pale and powerless..."

"... Because if that's the case, there is no doubt that we will be firmly nailed to the pillar of shame and never turn over! And the names of each of you will be used as objects of ridicule when future generations mention this game... I can guarantee that the fans will not have the slightest mercy or sympathy. Their mocking tone is enough to make the stubborn stone burst and the iron man crazy..."

"So, now, you must, listen, you must, you must let go of everything else in your heart... From now on, we will no longer fight for victory or defeat, but for the honor of the club! Crazy Li is indeed terrible, but that is not a reason for us to retreat! Because of our glorious Arsenal!"

"We have our own glory, we have things we must defend, and you should also have your own persistence, right?"

Wenger said a lot in one breath.

Watching the young disciples gradually wake up from confusion and helplessness, Wenger finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"In the second half, we will attack!"

This was the last sentence Wenger said during the 15-minute halftime break.

Yes, we must attack at all costs!

After all, no matter how strong Newcastle is, there are only nine players on the field. The first half of the game has consumed enough of their physical strength... Wenger doesn't believe that Newcastle's players are really a group of steel and iron, with unlimited physical strength!

Wenger doesn't believe even more that Crazy Li's middle finger that can decide the goal can really be raised unscrupulously!

Otherwise, he only needs to raise his middle finger in every game, how could he be forced into a desperate situation in so many previous games, and finally rely on good luck to win the game!

At this moment, Wenger only believes: as long as his Arsenal attacks hard in the second half, there will be a chance to overturn the 9-man Magpie Army!

...

Force--

The second half of the game finally started.

Wenger was dumbfounded!

Because Newcastle made a substitution!

Fernando Gago replaced Ronaldo, the alien who contributed two assists.

Khedira replaced Juan Mata!

Moussa Sissoko replaced Alan Smith!

Three offensive players were replaced in one go, and three defensive midfielders were replaced!

3-4-1! !

Ignoring the seemingly insignificant ‘1’ on the forward line, the defensive energy of this formation is not even a little worse than that of the 11-man formation.

Crazy Li... This is going to defend!

Three minutes ago, Wenger was still confident that the Chinese should carry out his usual crazy style to the end. After all, Newcastle's offensive in the first half was full of momentum, and it was the time when the momentum was the strongest...

Who would have thought that Crazy Li would retreat so simply!

Newcastle chose a defensive tactic, which was a blow to Arsenal, who was determined to achieve a big reversal by seizing the gaps left by the opponent's attack.

Any team will feel a headache when facing the iron bucket formation!

But at this time, Arsenal has no other way to go except attacking!

Wenger had a dark face and did not change the tactics!

...

Li Tongfan laughed shamelessly.

Because he saw Wenger's dark face.

Old Li thought shamelessly: With the super attack success rate and unyielding momentum shown by Newcastle in the last moments of the first half, not only Wenger, but also many people thought that Newcastle would continue to attack to the end in the second half with "brave madness"!

They must think that Crazy Li has been crazy to the extent that he can only release his arrogance in this way!

However, Li Tongfan has to tell them: Crazy people can also be calm and rational!

Moreover, in addition to attacking, the defense of the Magpies is also strong.

When facing Arsenal, 9 people can score 3 goals in offense, and 9 people can also shut out opponents in defense!

Of course, the main reason is that the consumption of two points of [Freedom Points] has reached the limit of what Li Tongfan can bear. There is no need for Lao Li to waste such precious points on a completely meaningless goal!

...

One actively retreats, and the other attacks desperately!

The focus of the 15th round of the Premier League, the "Peak Battle", completely turned into a half-court offense and defense in the 45 minutes of the second half!

The defenders were panting, and the attackers were angry!

Arsenal played their gorgeous offense to the extreme. The red waves were like the waves of the Aegean Sea that never stop surging, one after another, and there is no end in sight!

But Newcastle's defense is like a sea-proof dam, always standing firm!

The "brain" Fabregas tried his best, and the seemingly incomparable pass pierced the gaps in the Magpie Corps' defense system again and again, but when the football was really passed, the fatal gap that was clearly there a second ago had disappeared!

Crazy Lee almost used "human flesh" to form a moving dam in front of Hugo Lloris. Except for Michael Owen, the other 8 Magpies players on the field put all their energy into defense...

5 minutes passed, the score was 3:0!

10 minutes passed, the score was still 3:0!

20 minutes passed, the score was still 3:0!

Time passed slowly and quickly, and the snowflakes flying all over the sky finally showed signs of stopping.

In the stands, fans of both sides have begun to give up the tireless "fighting" with each other--

Although the team retreated to defend without momentum, no Newcastle fan booed in dissatisfaction, because with a ratio of 9 to 11, they were able to take a 3-goal lead, and the advantage was already a dream that they did not want to wake up from...

On the other side, although the team was shamefully behind by three goals, no Arsenal fans who came from afar left the field early to express dissatisfaction, because no team has ever been spared from facing that person's middle finger. When the team is in the most critical moment, what is needed is encouragement and support, not blame and betrayal...

There is no one sitting in the St. James's stands to watch the game.

It seems that only by standing up from the seat and standing in the cold night wind can the best support be given to the players who are still fighting hard on the field!

Just like this, all changes have nothing to do with energy and strength.

In the stadium with 70,000 people, Newcastle fans and Arsenal fans sang their respective team songs in a gentle tone... without interfering with each other.

This is a bizarre scene. The ferocious faces in the first half, the towering middle fingers in the first half, the provocative scolding in the first half, the first half... all the opposition and hostility in the first half disappeared!

Because they no longer have the heart to fight, they want to be proud of their own pride, and must be proud of their own pride!

Time passes, like flowing water.

When there were less than 10 minutes left in the second half, almost all Arsenal fans had no hope of achieving a big reversal. The only thing they expected was that the players they supported could score a goal at the last moment...

Even if it was just one goal!

Because just as Wenger said in the locker room during the halftime break: This has nothing to do with winning or losing, but glory!

The glory of 11 men and 10,000 men!

Perhaps, more!

The Arsenal players on the field obviously knew that the Gunners' offensive became more and more violent as the game was about to end. The football was continuously sent into Newcastle's penalty area like a cannonball, and was quickly pushed out by the "magpies"...

In again, out again!

In this helpless and interesting back and forth cycle, the game time came to the last 30 seconds...

On the sidelines.

The fourth official played the electronic notice board, and the second half of the game was added 2 minutes.

The most tragic moment has arrived.

Gradually, the "HOT-STUFF" sung by less than 10,000 Gunners fans actually overwhelmed the "COME-IN-HOME-NEWCASTLE" sung by more than 60,000 Newcastle people...

The fate has long been decided, and now is the last moment to decide the glory!

For the last time, Fabregas passed the ball, and the ball passed Fernando Gago, Sami Khedira, Makelele, Steven Taylor, and Michel Manzianni in the most reasonable way...

For the last time, [Little Monster] Adebayor followed his teammate's pass, squeezed through the 'dense' crowd of opponents, and charged with all his strength...

For the last time, Eduardo Silva took a step and tried to create a gap for his teammates...

The tragic song resounded throughout the stadium. This was Arsenal's last attack!

Fabregas' pass almost penetrated the entire Magpie Army's defense line, Adebayor's sprint almost squeezed out all the opponents who tried to block him, and Eduardo Silva's running position created a gap for everyone...

But...

Force--

The whistle sounded!

The game is over!

Hugo Lloris held the ball in his arms and kicked it high into the night sky, where the snow had stopped falling at some point...

The Newcastle players rushed to the coaching booth frantically.

Arsenal players either lowered their heads or stood there with their hands on their hips... For them, this was a cruel game!

However, how can you see the rainbow without going through the wind and rain on the road to growth? ——
