Chapter 202 Fighting the Hornet Again

  Westfalenstadion is the famous devil's home stadium in Europe, and its popularity can be called the most popular in Europe.

  Even in the locker room, Le Kai could hear waves of crazy cheers from the outside world.

   These all give them pressure to a certain extent.

  Arsenal's players are all nervously preparing for the game. They seem to be chatting lightly, looking extremely relaxed.

  But only in this environment can you feel the sense of depression that comes from the heart.

   This is the quarter-finals of the Champions League!

   You can reach the semi-finals in one step!

   This is a fatal temptation for every player!

nervous! perturbed! excited! Wait for the emotions to come to your mind.

   Someone is sitting on a bench, clasping his hands together and praying on his forehead.

   Someone kept checking the equipment on their bodies, for fear that there might be a slight omission.

  Someone's hands are shaking.

  Someone is shaking their legs!

  At this moment, every Arsenal player could not relax.

  Even Lucy, he kept taking deep breaths to relieve the tension in his heart.

  Wenger stood aside and watched this scene. He didn't deliberately boost morale, but watched this scene quietly.

  Appropriate tension is necessary, which will make them enter the game state more quickly.

   will also promote their performance in the game.

  Boom boom!

   There was a knock on the door, and a staff member stood at the door and made a gesture to indicate that they could line up.

   Shua!

   Lucy stood up abruptly, turned around and walked out.

   And other Arsenal players followed suit.

  In the player channel, the two teams arrived almost at the same time, but neither of them made any eye contact. They turned straight and came to stand on the side of their lineup, waiting for the start of the game.

   Soon, a staff member walked in with the camera.

   The players have become accustomed to this.

  Tense faces appeared in the camera, which spread to all parts of the world through the camera.

  In the Sina Sports live broadcast room.

  Zhan Jundao: "We can see that the expressions of the players of the two teams are very nervous. After all, the tickets to the semi-finals of the Champions League can be determined through these two games!"

  "For Dortmund, they want to continue the glory of last season, and at the same time make up for the regret of being defeated by Bayern Munich and failing to win the Champions League!"

  "And for Arsenal, the Gunners have been waiting for this moment for too long!"

   "For three consecutive years, they have been eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. This year, the Gunners defeated Bayern Munich and advanced to the quarter-finals. Their goal is last season's Champions League runner-up, Dortmund!"

  Zhang Lu: "This Arsenal is also unlucky enough. The quarter-finals will play the Champions League champion, and the quarter-finals will play the Champions League runner-up!"

   "The two strongest teams of last season were met by them!"

Zhan Jun also grinned and said: "Arsenal's signing luck! It seems that it has not been very good. Of course, it is also the same for Dortmund. After defeating Bayern Munich's Arsenal, Dortmund must go all out and cannot be underestimated in the slightest." !"

  The players of the two teams walked out of the passage holding the hands of the caddy. After clapping and shaking hands and other ceremonies, the captains of the two teams guessed the side.

  Arsenal and Dortmund are both second captains.

   Lucky and Hummels guessed.

   Lucky won the guessing side, and he chose the ball.

   It seems that Lucky is lucky when guessing the side, he can always get the result he wants.

  After arriving at his own half, Le Kai began to move his body and prepare for the game.

  Dortmund is definitely not an easy team to deal with. Therefore, Arsenal needs to be more vigilant.

  Dortmund (4-2-3-1):

  Goalkeeper: Weidenfeller.

  Defenders: Piszczek, Friedrich, Hummels, Durm.

  Midfielders: Jojic, Kirsch, Mkhitaryan, Gross Kreutz, Royce.

  Forward: Lewandowski.

  Arsenal (4-3-3):

  Goalkeeper: Szczesny.

  Defenders; Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal.

  Midfielders: Flamini, Cazorla, Lucky.

  Forwards: Rosicky, Suarez, Walcott.

   Time passed, Le Kai tightened the captain's armband on his arm, and his expression became more dignified.

   At this time, the referee walked out of the middle circle.

  The scene began to gradually become restless.

   Until the whistle sounded for the start of the game, all Dortmund fans in the audience began to shout instantly.

   Beep! !

  With the whistle, Lewandowski completed the pass back.

   This also indicates that the game is just beginning.

  Dortmund did not attack at the first time, but tested Arsenal by pouring the ball in the backcourt.

  But the Arsenal players rushed up the first time in the game.

  Especially when Walcott rushed to Jojic who was holding the ball, he was directly sliding tackles one by one.

Beep!

   The foul whistle sounded.

  Walcott was warned by the referee at the beginning of the game.

  Walcott got up like nothing happened, this is his warning to Dortmund.

   "Theo! Calm down!"

   Lucky shouted from behind.

  He was afraid that Walcott would get too excited and do something out of the ordinary.

   In this regard, Walcott made an OK gesture to Lucky, indicating that he was fine.

   Lucy nodded.

   On the other hand, Dortmund's rhythm was somewhat disrupted because of this foul ball.

  They wanted to get involved with Arsenal, but Arsenal came up with a slippery shovel, making it clear that they wanted to be tough.

   And for Klopp's Dortmund team, the most feared thing is toughness!

   They are not a team that plays slow-paced football like Bayern Munich. Klopp's Dortmund can also play fast-paced football!

  When the ball was re-opened, Dortmund began to continuously attack.

  Dortmund's offense is one of the best in the Bundesliga. Even under the tactical concept of high-position pressing and quick counterattack, this Dortmund's offensive ability is even higher than that of Bayern Munich in some cases.

  Creating opportunities in attack, this is the way Dortmund play.

   The relative Dortmund defense has some problems.

   Hummels and Friedrich have a good partner, but both German defenders have a common problem, that is, they like to grab!

  Hummels is very capable and has a high steal rate, but as long as there is a problem in this link, Dortmund's defense will have a huge contribution.

  Even if Friedrich has the bottom line, it is difficult to completely avoid it.

   Lucky was cruising in the backcourt area of ​​his home, while observing the progress of the game, he was also thinking about how to play football.

  At this moment, Lucky noticed Royce running towards the sideline quietly.

  That cautious look is like a thief.

   And Dortmund quickly distributed the ball to Royce.

  Royce got the ball here, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Lucky standing in front of him.

  Royce suddenly panicked, he quickly pulled the ball sideways, and made a protective move.

  He was robbed by Le Kai!

   But this time, Lucky didn't go up to grab, but stared at Royce.

  Royce saw that Lucky hadn't moved, and prepared to make a cross.

  But at this moment, pressure suddenly came from behind.

  Walcott quickly retreated to complete the outflank, and Lucky also started to grab directly in an instant.

   Lucky and Walcott have practiced very skillfully in outflanking and counter-robbing, and the two snatched the ball from Royce's feet reasonably.

  Finally, Walcott picked up the ball and started to turn around and run wildly!

   Royce looked depressed. He paid too much attention to Lucky, so he didn't observe someone outflanking from behind.

  At the same time, he couldn't help feeling that the coordinated defense of this Arsenal team is getting better and better.

"This is Arsenal's tactic for dealing with Bayern Munich, and now it has a good effect on Dortmund. Of course, for Royce, this is sudden. After all, in the group stage, Arsenal will not play like this. They Relying more on Kay's steals!"

   "But now this Arsenal team can tackle tackles from anywhere on the pitch!"

  As the commentator said, Arsenal can steal anywhere.

   This is somewhat similar to Dortmund's high-position press, but it is more coordinated.

   Of course, Dortmund is not a good stubble.

  After losing the ball, they also decisively counterattacked.

  Royce chased back, Kirsch outflanked in the middle, and Durm pressed forward to block.

   Compress Walcott's passing space a little bit, and finally implement a steal.

   So far, both teams have played proactively and are extremely aggressive.

   But more dogfights appear in the midfield, so the number of shots is actually very small.
